" Gan Ning, Qu Yi, and others pay their respects to our lord!"
After the group entered, they immediately bowed their heads respectfully, showing their reverence for their lord.
Outside, they are fierce and ruthless killers, but in front of their lord, they will not overstep their bounds in the slightest, especially now that there are outsiders present.
Seeing this, Wang Yunze couldn't help but swallow hard, thinking to himself, "What a terrifying Prince of Xiliang! Such arrogant and fierce generals are actually so submissive in front of him, which shows how high his prestige is."
This is true Nine Tripod Cauldrons, far more ruthless than the emperor, who now has little say in many matters.
Lin Yi nodded slightly and smiled, "Gentlemen, what is the current situation in Wuning Commandery?"
"My lord, the enemy has been completely defeated by us, with countless casualties. After Shangguan Yun and Li Ruyu died in battle, the remaining counties surrendered without resistance and all chose to submit to Xiliang."
"In several places, even the common people themselves took action and scattered the garrison of Great Ning. The people of the entire Wuning Commandery have been looking forward to seeing their lord for a long time!" Qu Yi said with a face full of admiration.
This was the first time he had encountered such a situation in war—the enemy's civilians were fighting for his side. It was rather absurd.
Ha ha!
Lin Yi couldn't help but burst into laughter. He had given away quite a few potatoes back then, and he hadn't accepted a single penny from them. At the time, the people of Great Ning thought that their Prince of Xiliang was too foolish, but little did they know that what is free is often the most expensive.
With Zhang Jiao and his group's maneuvering, his prestige among the people had long surpassed that of Li Anlan, so it would be strange if they didn't help him.
bite!
The system in his mind also stirred at this moment, and it shone with an unprecedented light, which made Lin Yi's eyes light up.
A red glow!
Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat. Suppressing his excitement, he opened the system in his mind.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for successfully defeating the 300,000- Great Ning army with your martial prowess, killing 200,000. Reward: 100,000 Bingzhou Legion."
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for subduing others with martial prowess and successfully slaying General Shangguan Yun and Li Ruyu of the Great Ning Dynasty. This has triggered a super critical hit reward, granting you the ultimate general Lü Bu and the Sky Piercer!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for disregarding martial ethics and successfully deterring Wang Yunze, a direct descendant of the Wang Clan. Strategist Xu You is rewarded."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for disregarding martial ethics and successfully deterring Zhang Jiayunlong. A reward of one thousand management personnel is given."
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for winning over the people of Wuning Commandery with your Win People Over with Virtue. You are rewarded with a special merchant group— Maritime Trade Merchant Group of two thousand people."
"..."
Lü Bu has finally appeared!
No wonder the system was flashing red; it turns out a truly formidable opponent has appeared.
He never expected that he would actually summon Lü Bu from Shangguan Yun and Li Ruyu, and that it would result in a super critical hit.
Logically, it shouldn't be possible to get Lü Bu.
It can only be said that even the system dislikes Li Anlan, so when the attack on the capital was about to begin, it created such a ruthless character, just to destroy the capital.
When Lü Bu appears, he is immediately shown as an ultimate general, and his combat power is obviously off the charts. He is the strongest general in the Three Kingdoms and also the strongest general under his command.
His combat prowess is beyond doubt; he ranks first in countless rankings and is undeniably formidable.
He did not summon Lü Bu immediately, but continued to examine the other rewards.
In addition to Lü Bu, Xu You was also rewarded this time.
To my utter surprise, this person was actually found through Wang Yunze; it was quite an unexpected bonus.
Although Xu You has a bad reputation, he is actually talented and resourceful, and even has a bit of a cunning and ruthless nature.
Unfortunately, this person had ridiculously low emotional intelligence, so in the end, he was killed by Cao Aman.
Actually, this isn't entirely Aman's fault. The key issue is that Xu You didn't know how to restrain himself. After burning Wuchao, he became incredibly arrogant, basically a hothead. He even called Cao Cao by his childhood name, Aman, to his face and claimed it was his own achievement that brought Old Cao this success.
This once or twice is one thing, Cao Cao was quite tolerant, he could just let it pass.
But if you keep doing this every day, Cao Aman, who is already a leader, can't tolerate it any longer, so he eventually killed him.
However, once he's under my command, he won't have any disloyalty, and with Guo Jia and Jia Xu keeping him in check, this guy can settle down and be a worker.
Then came the 100,000 -Bingzhou Legion, which should be Lü Bu's veteran troops and could be considered an elite force, making them a perfect fit for Lü Bu.
The management talent and the Maritime Trade Merchant Group that follow are two valuable assets.
The latter, in particular, is exactly what we need right now. These maritime trade groups are very knowledgeable about the sea, so sending them to explore the ocean is undoubtedly the best option.
As for the other rewards, they are mostly supplies and food, which can be considered icing on the cake.
The real impact comes from the military and its personnel.
With them on the front lines, we can perhaps take the initiative more effectively, which is the best option.
These individuals have rendered a great service this time and deserve a reward, and a substantial one at that.
You have to understand that this kind of landing operation is a tough nut to crack. The fact that Wuning Commandery was captured so quickly is definitely because the people below fought desperately.
With that in mind, Lin Yi made a decision: he would reward them handsomely.
At the very least, promotions and monetary rewards are a must.
" Qu Yi, the Vanguard Dare-to-Die Warriors, with 50,000 elite troops, held off a frontal attack by more than 200,000 enemies. Although he was assisted by the Modao Battalion and the Divine Machine Battalion, his merit was undoubtedly enormous. He was bestowed the title of Great General of Divine Martial Prowess."
Upon promotion, the official would be rewarded with a golden crossbow, ten thousand taels of gold, and various kinds of jewelry.
The other 50,000 Vanguard Dare-to-Die Warriors soldiers were all promoted one rank, given a reward of 50 strings of cash, and various supplies.
Hiss!
Everyone was filled with envy. This title of Great General of Divine Martial Prowess was no small matter. Previously, Divine Martial was the title of a minor king of the Northern Barbarians, but now it had been given to Qu Yi.
Although they are all generals, having a title and not having a title are two different things.
The mere mention of the words "divine and mighty" is enough to make Qu Yi worthwhile. The lord even bestowed upon him a golden crossbow—that's incredibly impressive and of profound significance.
However, he had made great contributions in the previous battles, and everyone was convinced of his merits and had no objections.
"Thank you, my lord!" Qu Yi was overjoyed and quickly knelt down to express his gratitude.
"Yes, you deserve it."
Lin Yi smiled and waved his hand. The Vanguard Dare-to-Die Warriors bravely in every battle, and he would feel bad if he didn't give them this reward.
" Brocade Sail Battalion Gan Ning of the Jin Fan Battalion, through his strategic planning, manipulated Shangguan Yun, preventing the enemy from launching a full-scale attack. He made great contributions and was awarded the title of Great General of the Brocade Sail, taking command of the Great Ning Navy."
A warship and ten thousand taels of gold were awarded as a reward...
