Outside Yijing City, the white-robed general Chen Qingzhi had returned with his 7,000 soldiers.
Behind him were the 50,000 prisoners of war.
In this battle, Chen Qingzhi only used 7,000 people and won in just half a month.
Of course, they had sacrificed more than a thousand Zhuo County soldiers, so it couldn't be said that they had subdued these fifty thousand bandits without spending a single soldier.
Even so, this achievement was still considered shocking!
One had to know that Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan had sent tens of thousands of troops several times, but they had failed to take down this group of bandits.
Not to mention subduing bandits.
Lu Fengnian naturally had absolute confidence in the white-robed War God, Chen Qingzhi.
He was not surprised to see Chen Qingzhi return triumphantly.
Behind him, Chen Gong, Zhang Liao, and the others had complicated expressions in their eyes.
When Chen Qingzhi had made a military pledge to lead a mere seven thousand men to Zhuo County to suppress the bandits, Chen Gong had determined that this kid would definitely die!
Following the news from the scouts, Chen Qingzhi's performance made Chen Gong look down on him even more.
Now, he had completed his mission and returned.
And it was done very well!
All 50,000 bandits were captured and became prisoners of war.
This was much more useful than killing these 50,000 people!
Moreover, it was a feat that Chen Qingzhi had accomplished with only 7,000 white-robed soldiers!
This leadership talent was rare in the world!
50,000 men! Lu Fengnian had less than 50,000 men in total. Now that he had this group of valiant soldiers under his command, Lu Fengnian's military strength had doubled!
Of course, doubling the number of soldiers didn't mean doubling the combat power.
If these fifty thousand prisoners of war were to fight against Lu Fengnian's troops, they would definitely be crushed by Lu Fengnian's forces!
In the current world, there was no opponent who could match Lu Fengnian with the same military strength!
At the foot of the city tower, Chen Qingzhi had a smile on his face as he dismounted and bowed to Lu Fengnian.
"I am Chen Qingzhi. I have fulfilled my lord's orders and have come to report.”
Lu Fengnian laughed loudly and went forward to help Chen Qingzhi up.
"Ziyun, please stand up!"
"I know your talent the best!”
"The winners have worked hard!"
As Lu Fengnian spoke, he intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Chen Gong, Zhang Liao, and the others.
Chen Gong and Zhang Liao were straightforward people, so they knew that they had been rude in underestimating Chen Qingzhi.
"Congratulations on your triumphant return, General Ziyun!"
"General Ziyun has a good command of troops and is peerless. Chen Gong is convinced that General Ziyun is worthy of being the commander of the three armies!”
Chen Gong stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Chen Qingzhi. His words were heartfelt.
These bandits from Zhuo County had been causing trouble for a long time. In order to survive in this chaotic world, they had done many evil things and often disturbed people.
If the government allowed them to do whatever they wanted and did nothing, it would definitely arouse the resentment of the people, and more good people would become bandits.
Therefore, even though Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao had been at war for so many years, they had also sent troops to attack the bandits of Zhuo County's Shuangta Mountain.
But whether it was Yuan Shao or Gongsun Zan, they had never been able to take down this group of bandits.
The reason why they attacked the bandits was to get rid of the bandits, but they also wanted to take in the bandits for their own use!
Fifty thousand warriors who could fight, which duke did not want them?
Unfortunately, when two armies fought, they had to be wary of each other and couldn't use all their strength to suppress the bandits. Moreover, the bandits of Shuangta Mountain had already become powerful, and there were also capable people who were familiar with the art of war.
Moreover, everyone was afraid that the other party would take down this group of bandits first and increase the combat strength of the army.
Therefore, in the end, both sides could only give up!
Chen Gong had once deduced that if he, Zhang Liao, and the others were to take action, they might be able to do what Chen Qingzhi did and subdue all 50,000 bandits.
However, it was impossible to subdue it within half a month. It would take at least three months. Half a year was the safest!
From this, it could be seen how eye-catching and amazing Chen Qingzhi's battle record was!
Of course, if Lu Fengnian were to take action personally, with ten thousand Youzhou soldiers and five thousand armored soldiers, along with the valiant Lu Fengnian, he might be able to defeat these mountain bandits in a day.
However, in this world, who could compare themselves to Lu Fengnian?
Seeing Chen Gong bow respectfully, Chen Qingzhi quickly went forward to help him up.
"Mr. Gongtai, you've really crushed me!"
"Qingzhi doesn't deserve such a big bow from the military counselor!”
"This time, I was only lucky enough to subdue the bandits of Twin Towers Mountain!”
"General, you're too modest!" Chen Gong laughed.”
"There are not many people in the world who can be compared to the general, but there are definitely only a handful of them!”
"General Ziyun is the commander of our three armies.”
Zhang Liao and Gao Shun also went forward to congratulate Chen Qingzhi on his success!
"As expected, my lord has a discerning eye for heroes!”
"General Ziyun is a great talent.”
"That's right, my lord has a good eye for people. General Ziyun is also a true talent!”
"Our army has gained another good general!"
……
Lu Fengnian smiled in satisfaction when he saw that the group of people were completely convinced by Chen Qingzhi and were willing to let him be the commander of the three armies.
Hehe, it worked!
As expected of the white-robed God of War. He had shocked everyone with his first move!
Now that he had gathered all his generals, Chen Gong, and the 50,000 surrendered bandits, his army had broken through 100,000!
In this way, he really looked like a duke!
