Two days later.

With the two escorts, Liu Wei and his group passed through Yanmen Pass without incident, crossed the Sanggan River, and arrived at Mayi to rest.

Zhang Xun, the garrison commander of Yanmen Pass, led his troops out on military duties, and Liu Wei did not encounter him.

When Cao Cao and Yuan Shao arrived at Yanmen Pass, they did not enter the pass but turned their horses around and rushed back to Luoyang.

The soldiers guarding the pass were quite surprised to learn that Liu Wei and his party were going to Shuofang, and they all looked pitiful.

It should be noted that to travel from Yanmen Pass to Shuofang, one must pass through the three prefectures of Dingxiang, Yunzhong, and Wuyuan.

Along this route, the various tribes of the Southern Xiongnu had already occupied this area.

The leader of the Southern Xiongnu, Right Wise King Qiangqu Chanyu, with the support of his son Yufuluo and his younger brother Huchuquan, established Meiji as his royal court and ruled over four commanderies on the southern slope of Yinshan Mountain and the north bank of the Yellow River.

At this time, Mayi was located in the buffer zone between the Han Dynasty and the Southern Xiongnu, and was sparsely populated.

This is not a city at all, but just an earthen wall made of stones and mud, covering an area of ​​about one mile in circumference.

Inside were dozens of scattered houses, ruins and empty buildings.

Liu Wei found a relatively clean empty house and settled the group in, where they ate some dry food to stave off hunger.

Guo Luo and Yang Yi treated the wounded guards, while Xiao Gui Zi served Diao Chan.

After offering some words of encouragement to everyone, Liu Wei took advantage of the dim night, rode a fine horse, and left Mayi alone.

Mayi is situated between two mountain ranges, with Hongtao Mountain to the left and Guancen Mountain to the right. A hundred li north along the valley between the mountain ranges lies the seat of Dingxiang Prefecture, Shanwu.

There, a large number of Xiongnu people were entrenched.

If we go to Shuofang, we will definitely run into them!

It's time to exchange population and have our own army!

After walking two or three miles eastward, Liu Wei arrived at a huge valley.

Despite the arduous journey over the past two weeks, and the pursuit by men sent by Empress He, the situation remains unchanged.

But Liu Wei didn't feel tired at all at this moment. On the contrary, he was full of energy and in a very excited state.

The points on the system panel in my mind kept fluctuating.

In just half a month, I've already accumulated enough points!

After scanning the mall with his deep gaze, Liu Wei pondered for a moment and then issued the command.

"Exchange population!"

【bite】

[Use points to exchange for population! Remaining points]

The system audio notification ended.

The next moment, a sandstorm swept through the valley ahead, raising a huge cloud of black mist.

As the fog dissipated, ten thousand adult men dressed in plain clothes were revealed.

They stood in neat rows of 100 people each, filling the valley.

"Greetings, Your Excellency!"

Ten thousand people knelt down and paid their respects to Liu Wei.

The roar was thunderous, stirring the heart and igniting the blood!

Looking into those eyes filled with adoration.

Liu Wei knew that these people were absolutely loyal to him.

His orders are absolute decrees.

Liu Wei nodded slightly, extended his five fingers in mid-air, and then clenched his fist forcefully.

Ten thousand people immediately stood up, each one standing as straight as a javelin, full of vigor.

They're all starting from scratch; we need to equip them with various gear.

Liu Wei looked at the [Armor] section of the system shop, where he could only select one-star equipment.

Bronze Helmet: 2 points/cap

[Black Light Armor: 10 points/set]

[Ring-pommel sword: 2 points/each]

[Round Log Shield: 3 points/face]

[Standard Long Spear: 1 point/spear]

[Standard Willow Bow: 5 points/piece]

Arrows: 1 point/jar, 30 arrows per jar

[Yellow-maned Horse: 100 points/horse]

Buy, buy, buy!

Liu Wei immediately embarked on a shopping spree.

"Purchase a set of bronze helmets, black armor, 4,000 ring-pommel swords, and 3,000 round wooden shields!"

"3,000 bows and arrows, 3,000 spears, and 1,000 yellow-maned horses!"

As soon as Liu Wei gave the command, the system notifications began to ring out continuously:

[Purchase a set of bronze helmet and black armor, points will be deducted]

[Purchase 4000 ring-pommel swords, deduct 8000 points]

[Purchase 3000 log shields, deduct 9000 points]

[Purchase 3000 ordinary spears, deduct 3000 points]

[Purchase 3000 ordinary willow bows, points deducted]

[Purchase 3000 quiver of arrows, deduct 3000 points]

[Purchase 1000 Yellow-Maned Horses, points deducted]

Total points deducted: points.

[Due to the large quantity purchased by the host, a discount is offered, and points are refunded. Account balance: Points!]

For a time, Liu Wei found the joy of shopping on Singles' Day!

As the pieces of equipment settled to the ground, golden light flashed continuously in the valley.

Before Liu Wei stood 3,000 swordsmen and shieldmen, 3,000 spearmen, 3,000 archers, and 1,000 light cavalry.

Looking at the well-rounded mixed force in front of him, Liu Wei smiled with satisfaction.

However, this is far from enough; they also need to be given unit templates.

The cost of troop templates like the Xuanjia Army, Beifu Army, and Wei Wuzu is too high. Liu Wei needs to save points to equip this mixed army with a general to command it.

Therefore, Liu Wei spent 300,000 points to purchase a one-star troop template: White Robe Army!

The White-Robed Army, also known as the Chen Qingzhi Army, was an army led by Chen Qingzhi of the Southern Dynasty.

Back then, the 7,000 White-Robed Army soldiers ventured deep into the territory of Northern Wei, fighting 47 battles from Zhi County to Luoyang, capturing 32 cities, and advancing without hesitation.
