Wang Xu patted Zhao Yun's shoulder and laughed loudly.
"Zilong, from today onwards, I appoint you as a lieutenant!”
"These 10,000 white horses will be under your command!”
Zhao Yun was overjoyed. He bowed deeply to Wang Xu.
"Thank you, Lord. This subordinate is willing to die for you!”
Wang Xu looked again and saw that Zhao Yun's attribute pane had changed.
Name: Zhao Yun, also known as Zilong
[Age: 18]
[Commander: 92]
[Strength: 98]
[Intelligence: 86]
Internal Affairs: 80
[Loyalty: 100%(loyal to the death)]
[Characteristics: Insight, One Rider, Courage, Palace Army]
……
Wang Xu was delighted.
Zhao Yun's loyalty had reached the point of death!
In this way, he did not need to worry about whether Zhao Yun would rebel or not.
"Let's go, Zilong," he waved his hand and said,"I'm going to give you a welcoming dinner today!"”
"My lord, where are my local soldiers and county officials?”
Zhao Yun looked at Wang Xu hopefully.
Wang Xu laughed and said,"What else is there to say? They will all belong to you, Zilong."”
"Thank you, my lord!"
Zhao Yun cupped her hands and bowed.
That night, Wang Xu called Tian Feng and Zhao Yun over.
They toasted together and drank happily.
Tian Feng and Zhao Yun were loyal to Wang Xu to begin with. Seeing Wang Xu treat them so well, they were naturally quite touched.
The next morning, Wang Xu came out of the backyard and bumped into Tian Feng.
Tian Feng's expression was a little ugly.
He bowed to Wang Xu and said,"My Lord, I have something to report to you!"”
"What is it?" Wang Xu asked curiously.
"My lord, I found that many residents outside the city have no food.”Tian Feng reported.
Wang Xu's brows darkened slightly.”
"That's right!" Tian Feng nodded.
"The grain reserves in the commoners 'homes were all plundered clean by the Xiongnu!”
Wang Xu immediately stood up and said,"Yuan Hao, take me there to take a look."”
Tian Feng led Wang Xu to the east of the city.
The next moment, Wang Xu stopped in her tracks.
His gaze was fixed on a corner not far away.
There were a few villagers there who were fighting over something.
After the villagers finished looting, they dispersed.
Someone was running in their direction.
Wang Xu nodded at that person.
Wang Yi understood and immediately went up to greet him.
"Aunty, what are you fighting for?”
" Sigh…" The old woman sighed.
"What else could it be? It's just tree bark.”
He raised his right hand and revealed the tree bark in his hand.
"But why are you snatching these tree barks?”Wang Yi was puzzled.
"We have no other choice!”
The old woman looked miserable.
"When the Xiongnu people came, they took all the grain stored in our family.”
"We don't have food, so we can only dig tree bark and grass roots to survive.”
" My poor one-year-old child. Without his mother, he still has to eat tree bark and grass roots with me…"
As she spoke, two drops of tears rolled down from her eyes.
Wang Xu couldn't bear it.
However, he didn't have much of a choice.
Although he had 130,000 dan of food, it was not enough to feed his soldiers.
After all, he had a hundred thousand men of sacrifice.
The amount of rations needed every day was not a small amount.
130,000 dans of food could only feed 100,000 men of sacrifice for a month.
At this moment, the system's voice sounded in his mind.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering the Divine Level Achievement Mission: Benevolence.
[Mission Requirement: Host will provide porridge in Huai County for three days.]
Mission reward unknown, failure without penalty!”
Giving porridge for three days?
Wang Xu pondered for a moment.
He looked at Tian Feng.
"Yuan Hao, do you know how many people there are in Huai County?”
"My lord, there are fifteen thousand households in Huai County, fifty thousand people in total.”Tian Feng replied respectfully.
"Fifty thousand."
Wang Xu calculated in her heart.
Fifty thousand people, if they were to provide porridge for three days, it would probably cost nearly two thousand stones.
This was already a considerable expenditure.
However, if he didn't do anything, the number of people in Huai County would be greatly reduced.
At that time, he would still be the one to lose.
More importantly, the Divine Achievement System had never disappointed him. He wondered what kind of reward he would receive this time.
He sighed.
"Yuan Hao, prepare to provide porridge for three days."
When Wang Xu asked him about the population, Tian Feng had already guessed something.
"My lord, there are too many people in Huai County. The amount of rice needed for the porridge is too much…"
Wang Xu waved her hand.
"Yuan Hao, these are the people under my rule. I can't just watch them starve to death, right?”
When Tian Feng heard this, his entire body stiffened.
Then, he bowed deeply to Wang Xu.
"My lord is benevolent!"
Wang Xu instructed again,"The location of the porridge distribution will be on the empty space in front of the County Governor's Estate." Wang Yi, help me deal with it too."”
"Here!" Tian Feng and Wang Yi respectfully responded.
Then, he walked towards the treasury.
Wang Xu looked at the old woman and said.
"Auntie, go and inform the villagers to go to the empty space in front of County Governor Manor to get the porridge.”
The old woman wiped her tears and looked at Wang Xu in disbelief.
After a long time, she fell to her knees with a thud.
"Thank you, Marquis Champion! You're really our savior!”
She respectfully kowtowed three times and then retreated.
She shouted excitedly as she jogged.
"Villagers, we are saved! The Marquis Champion has agreed to give us porridge! Come out quickly…"
"Really?"
"Aunt Li, is what you said true?"
"Auntie Li, tell us in detail.”
One by one, the commoners stuck their heads out and surrounded the old woman.
The old woman explained as she pointed at Wang Xu from time to time.
Then, cheers came from the crowd.
Whoosh...
Countless people rushed towards Wang Xu.
They knelt down in front of Wang Xu in unison.
"Thank you, Marquis Champion, for saving my life!"
"Marquis Champion, you are our second parent!”
"Thank you, Marquis Champion! I thank the Marquis Champion on behalf of my entire family!”
……
Facing the commoners, Wang Xu was also quite touched.
These were his adorable commoners.
As long as he did a little favor, the people would be grateful to him.
He waved his hand and said,"Villagers, get up quickly!"”
"The location of the porridge distribution this time will be the empty space in front of County Governor Manor. Within three days, every citizen of Huai County could go and get the porridge.”
"Thank you, Marquis Champion!"
"Champion Hou Renyi!"
"We are finally saved!"
The crowd cheered again.
"Commoners, the porridge shop should be almost ready by now." Wang Xu said loudly. You can go and get the porridge now…"
After the commoners expressed their gratitude, they walked in the direction of County Governor Manor.
As they walked, they cupped their hands at Wang Xu from time to time.
