‘Dingdong’

The third day after sending the envoy, Xing Daorong, who was in the Lingling Prefect's Mansion, heard the sound of the system.

'Changsha Prefect Han Xuan decided to obey Lingling's order and complete one-third of the host's mission'

Hearing this voice, Xing Daorong laughed with satisfaction.

"Sure enough, Prime Minister Cao's reputation is very useful!"

He didn't expect that Changsha, which was the most difficult to deal with, would be the first to surrender.

It seems that the benefits of getting the title of Xu Du court are also great. At least, counties like Changsha that belonged to Cao Cao's camp surrendered immediately!

...

Guiyang.

After Zhao Fan received the Lingling Envoy, he immediately gathered to discuss.

"Everyone!"

Looking around, Zhao Fan said:

"I heard for a long time that Xing'an people are kind and kind, and the three actions of Lingling's three-way Lingling are widely praised. Now that I have sent an envoy to come, I want to worship Lingling as the main one. What do you think?"

Hearing this, someone came out of the line and said with his fists:

"Lord, what does Xing Anmin have to do with us? Since he is the governor of Jingnan, he is in his name, so why should he regard it as the main person? Instead, he lost his freedom!"

Another person left the list and said:

"That's true, lord, in his name, I, Guiyang, have strong soldiers and horses, why should I be inferior to others?"

Zhao Fan looked down and found that it was Chen Ying and Bao Long, the captain of the military officers.

These two people were hunters from Guiyangling Mountain Township. Chen Yinghui sent flying forks and Bao Long shot and killed two tigers, both of which were extremely brave and were recruited into the army.

Chen Ying and Bao Long came out, and even when someone spoke again, they were all the same words as the two of them.

Zhao Fan was an indecisive person. Hearing that everyone said this, he not only hesitated.

In the end, Zhao Fan accepted the will of everyone and decided to adopt the strategy of "responding orders but not orders" against Lingling, just like Han Xuan in Changsha.

...

‘Dingdong’

'Guiyang Prefect Zhao Fan decided to follow Lingling's order to complete two-thirds of the host's mission'

"Not bad, not bad!"

Xing Daorong nodded happily.

"Just receive the order. Next, Wuling is the only one left. You can add 3 troops to the new general skills and military advisor skills, haha!"

...

Wuling.

"presumptuous!"

After hearing the words of the Lingling Envoy, Jin Xuan was furious and did not read Xing Daorong's letter, so she pointed at the envoy and cursed:

"It's already a blessing for a mere mountain of savages to get Lingling. How dare you call yourself Jingnan in the name of the court?"

"Come!"

Jin Xuan was furious and immediately called the left and right swordsman.

"Drag it down and kill it!"

As soon as this order was released, the messenger was so scared that his legs were weak, but the swords and axes on both sides were merciless and immediately lifted him out.

"Your Majesty!"

Seeing this, Gong Zhi immediately stepped out and advised:

"Xing Anmin was appointed by the court, let alone the 'two armies will not kill the envoys when they fight'. It is against morality to kill the envoys!"

"What's wrong?"

Jin Xuan said angrily:

"Don't say too much. Those who dare to make a fool of themselves will be killed!"

The words are concise and unquestionable.

Seeing this, Gong Zhi sighed and had to retreat.

...

Half a month later.

What surprised Xing Daorong was that the news that Changsha and Guiyang were ordered was soon passed back, but there was no news from Wuling.

Since receiving the system reminder, the messenger sent to Changsha and Guiyang came back three days later and brought him exact news.

But the envoy sent to Wuling never returned.

"strangeness!"

Looking at his skill that had recovered to 41 on the system panel, Xing Daorong thought in wonder:

"Why is there no news from Wuling? Could it be that Jin Xuan is unwilling to receive orders? Even if she doesn't want to, the messenger should come back, right?"

Bored staying in the prefect's mansion, Xing Daorong took Xing Yong and more than a dozen personal guards and walked around the military camp outside the city.

Since more than half a month ago, Liu Ba has advised him to continue expanding the army. Although he felt it was unnecessary, he still recruited another 5,000 people.

This number is already the limit.

Because, with the current grain reserves of Lingling Granary, 15,000 soldiers trained around the clock can only last until the end of this year.

At that time, the grain will be mature in the late autumn and the newly harvested grain will be used to continue the military supply. Therefore, 15,000 troops are already the limit of Lingling.

Of course, if you just wave to the soldiers and don’t train, you can double it.

But the untrained soldiers are just ‘peasants who pick up weapons’, and no matter how many there are, it is useless. Xing Daorong naturally knows how to choose.

After moving around the military camp, Xing Daorong returned to the prefect's mansion in the city with satisfaction.

Today, even the new recruits recruited in the past half month have reached 50% of the force, and all the soldiers who waved to the front have met this standard.

Especially the soldiers who experienced the fierce battle in the city three months ago, there were many more soldiers with force of 10 or even 20, which were truly elite.

Although all the troops he is good at are primary, the total number of soldiers who have transformed and promoted is not large.

It can be counted that there are more than 300 "intermediate soldiers" with force of more than 10. Based on the number of 3,000 left at the beginning, the promotion ratio is 10 to 1.

In addition, there are about 30 more "high-level soldiers" with force above 20, which can be said to be one of them in a hundred!

Due to several expansions, the "elite" with force increased by 30, and more than a dozen more were promoted by Xing Daorong to be a military marquis or a military sarcasm, making up for the amount vacant for death in the battle.

The "Senior Soldiers" who were promoted to more than 20 military force were all promoted to team leader or garrison leader, and the "Intermediate Soldiers" who were promoted to 10 military force were also become officials or sergeant commanders.

With high-force middle and low-level non-commissioned officers as the backbone of the army, the combat effectiveness of the army has been greatly improved.

Overall, the Lingling Army today, not to mention the number, but only the elite level, is far away from the time when the city was defending the city.

When Xing Daorong brought his personal guards back to the prefect's mansion, he unexpectedly saw Liu Ba. It turned out that he was waiting for his return here.

"What's important about Zichu?"

Xing Daorong asked with a smile.

Seeing that the system mission is about to be completed, a large number of rewards are about to be obtained, and his entire strength is about to increase again. He is in a very good mood.

"General, you are finally back!"

As soon as he saw Xing Daorong, Liu Ba immediately came up with anxiety on his face and said hurriedly.

Since the imperial edict was issued, everyone saw Xing Daorong's name, and changed from "Encourt" to "General". After all, the official rank of "General Zhennan" can be much higher than that of the prefect or governor.

In this era, the name of meeting each other has always been the priority.

"Zi Chu, what happened?"

Seeing Liu Ba's rushing and his face was uneasy, Xing Daorong couldn't help but ask strangely.

"General, Wuling Prefect Jin Xuan did not follow the general's orders, but also beheaded the sent envoys on the spot!"

Liu Ba gave a message that surprised Xing Daorong.

"What?"

Xing Daorong was startled, then his eyes widened, his beard opened one by one, and he said angrily:

"Jin Xuan, the prefect of Wuling, kill my envoy? He dares?"

If Changsha Prefect Han Xuan did this, Xing Daorong would not be so angry.

After all, he has Lao Huang Zhong and is confident, but where did Jin Xuan get this courage?

At this moment, Xing Daorong was really angry.
