"Everyone, please be quiet. However, our City Lord has kindly given you a third option. That is to join our Sky City and become our subjects.”
After saying this, the mountain bandits who had just quieted down exploded into discussion again.
"Sir, if I join you, what do I need to do?”
A bandit leader asked Xiao He.
Xiao He smiled and said," You don't have to do anything. After you join us, you can join the army and become the guards of the City in the Sky.”
"Of course, there are those who don't want to join the army. They can also be like ordinary people in the city. They only need to do simple labor every day and receive generous rewards.”
"Moreover, if you join our Sky City, you will no longer be bandits. You won't have to worry about being surrounded by the government.”
"If you have wives and children, you can also bring them into the city. There are private schools in the city that can let your children read and write.”
After Xiao He finished speaking, a bandit leader stood up and said,
"Can we really let our children read and write?”
Clearly, they were starting to waver.
"That's right. Not only can your children read and write, you can too. Moreover, the treatment in Sky City is extremely high. Ordinary soldiers receive a monthly salary of 5 gold.”
"Milord, is this true?"
Xiao He nodded and said," Of course it's true. What are you guys still hesitating about? With such generous treatment, if we don't join now, when will we?"”
When the bandits heard this, they dropped their weapons and knelt down to surrender.
A mechanical voice sounded in Li Feng's mind.
Thump! Player's subordinate Xiao He has successfully activated Divine Persuade and recruited 2152 Black Wind Mountain Bandits.
Li Feng was overjoyed. He hurried out of the city and said to Xiao He,"Thank you for your hard work.”
"My lord, what are you saying? It's my duty to share your worries.”
Xiao He said to Li Feng with a smile.
Li Feng then began to check the attributes of these Mountain Thieves.
[Name: Zhang Da (Tier 3)]
[Aptitude: A]
[Class: Mountain Thief]
[Reputation: 30]
[Identity: Surrender of Black Wind Mountain]
[Loyalty: 70]
[Level: 30]
Commander: 5, Martial Force: 28, Intelligence: 6. Political: 1.
[Weapon: Steel Blade (Strength 1)]
Li Feng was also surprised by this. He did not expect these bandits to be Stage 3, and their Strength had reached 28 points. Among them, there were a few small leaders who had Strength above 40 points.
The only thing he wasn't satisfied with was that his loyalty was a little low. However, loyalty could be slowly improved.
Li Feng came to the bandits and said,"
"Since everyone has chosen to join the City in the Sky, I will not treat you unfairly. What Mr. Xiao said just now will count.”
"Now, those who are willing to join the army, step forward and follow Baiqi to become a regular soldier. Those who are unwilling can follow Mister Xiao He.”
After Li Feng finished speaking, about 1,500 people who were willing to join the army quickly walked out. Li Feng handed them over to Baiqi to manage.
The rest of the people were handed over to Xiao He.
At this moment, a bandit leader stood up and said,""City Lord, our families are all in Black Wind Mountain. Can you let us go and bring our families into the city?”
Li Feng nodded,"No problem. Baiqi, bring some people with you and bring them here."”
Bai Qi received the order and led his men to Black Wind Mountain. He only returned in the evening, and the people who followed him back were numerous. There were many more people than before.
Bai Qi went to the City Lord's Mansion and reported to Li Feng,"
"My lord, we've brought them back. There are a total of 2520 women, children, the elderly, and the young.”
Li Feng was a little surprised. He had never thought that there would be so many of them. If he calculated this, he could say that he had made a huge profit from this mountain bandit siege.
Just the population alone was 4672, which meant that the Sky City had a population of nearly 7000.
However, the sudden influx of so many people had also caused the public security of the Sky City and the morale of the people to drop significantly.
"Tomorrow, you will select people to form an army of three thousand people and train them. We have to seize the time to strengthen our military strength.”
There was less than a month left before the Yellow Turban Uprising. It was impossible to show off in the Yellow Turban Uprising without enough troops.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in Li Feng's mind.
[World Announcement: The New World will undergo a five-day update in an hour. During the update period, the New World will operate as usual. Please choose a safe place to log off.]
Li Feng was a little surprised by the sudden appearance of the world announcement. He did not expect that the new world would be updated right after the Horse Gang's siege.
He hurriedly found Xiao He, Baiqi, Wang Zhong, Lu Fang, and the others to arrange everything.
