The time has come, and Xishi and the other three looked at each other.
The next moment, four figures suddenly jumped up and pounced on old Andrew.
Faster than them were dozens of talismans and three evil spirits.
The evil spirit rushed towards the shadow guard, and the talisman went straight to old Andrew.
"There is an assassin, protect the lord."
Seeing this, the shadow guard screamed in panic.
But before he could finish his words, three evil spirits overwhelmed him.
Old Andrew was so frightened that he was trembling all over.
He never thought that he would encounter an assassin on the battlefield of the world.
However, he reacted quickly and dodged.
Unfortunately, it was still a step too late.
Bang~bang~
Phew.....
Several talismans and sharp blades hit old Andrew one after another.
In an instant, old Andrew's body exploded and turned into a bloody mist.
"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for killing the enemy lord. You will be rewarded with 300,000 reputation, 500,000 experience points, 10 million food, and a civil official gift pack."
"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for winning the first battle. You have received additional rewards: 500,000 reputation, 1 million experience points, 50 million food items, and a civil servant gift pack."
"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for defeating the opponent and obtaining all of his territory."
"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for reaching level eleven."
"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for all his generals reaching level 11."
.....
"Hahaha, it actually worked."
The moment he received the system prompt, Lu Ping couldn't help but let out a long roar to the sky.
At this moment, Lu Ping was extremely excited.
Lu Ping didn't expect that Xishi and the other four actually did it and successfully killed old Andrew.
The death of old Andrew is of great significance to Lu Ping.
It can be said that Lu Ping made a fortune.
Let’s not talk about experience and reputation for now.
Food, civil servant gift packs, and upgrade rewards don’t matter.
The key is that Lu Ping won all of old Andrew's territory, which is the most important thing.
Old Andrew's territory is seven times the size of Lu Ping's, with three county towns, more than a hundred villages, and a population of one million.
Having such a large territory and population means that Lu Ping has established a firm foothold in the third floor.
"Haha, that's great."
Lu Ping laughed wildly, and until now he couldn't believe the facts before him.
It was not until Xishi and the other three returned that Lu Ping regained his excitement.
"Quick, count the prisoners immediately and bring all the captured generals here."
Restraining his joy, Lu Ping quickly gave instructions.
When the lord dies, the generals automatically surrender. This is the system rule.
The reason why Lu Ping was so anxious to see the prisoners was because old Andrew had seven famous historical generals under his command.
Lu Ping was afraid that one of them would accidentally die in the battle just now, which would be a huge loss.
Soon, the captured generals were brought forward.
It was a dark mass, with more than a hundred people.
This was also because Lu Ping was lucky. He was carrying out a decapitation operation, so the casualties among the generals were very small.
Of course, Lu Ping doesn’t care about these, he only cares about those seven famous historical generals.
Fortunately, all seven historical generals were still alive, except for two who were slightly injured.
Seeing that all seven people were alive, Lu Ping immediately felt relieved.
As for two people being injured, it doesn’t matter.
As long as you are alive, you can slowly heal your injuries.
In addition to these seven people, Lu Ping also captured more than 30 second- and third-rate generals.
As for the rest, they are all rubbish generals.
The war had just ended and Lu Ping had a lot of things to do, so he naturally had no time to waste with them.
After they surrendered, they were taken away and resettled.
Immediately, Lu Ping ordered Huo Qubing, Bai Qi, and Li Jing to lead 10,000 troops each to take over old Andrew's territory.
At the same time, Lu Ping arranged for Li Si to go with him to take charge of the territory's political affairs.
It is true that the territory has been obtained, but if you act slowly, it will inevitably be seized by other lords.
This is something Lu Ping would never allow.
Upon receiving Lu Ping's order, Huo Qubing and others immediately led their troops to set off.
Lu Ping left Yue Fei to handle post-war affairs, and then returned to the county government with Xi Shi, Zhang Jiao and others.
Since Xishi and her four companions successfully launched a sneak attack, Zhang Jiao naturally didn't have to use his ultimate move, thus preserving Lu Ping's trump card.
"Well, that was a good performance, thank you."
Back at the county government office, Lu Ping looked at the women with gratitude.
"Master, you are so polite. This is what we should do." Xi Shi said softly.
The other three women also nodded.
"No, you guys really helped a lot this time."
"Thanks are still due."
"Tell me, what reward do you want?"
Lu Ping said seriously.
"Master, we just need to restore our bodies as girls." Wu Meiniang said playfully.
"Okay, from now on you can return to being daughters."
After thinking about it, Lu Ping smiled and agreed.
Lu Yi had mentioned to Lu Ping before about letting them show their true identities, but Lu Ping had never done it.
That was perfect, so we just followed their wishes.
As for Xia Mo, Lu Ping could only make up a reason.
"Hehe, thank you, Master."
Seeing Lu Ping agreed, the four Xishi girls looked at each other and immediately showed joy.
"You're welcome, this is what you deserve."
"Okay, you guys go back now."
"Just tell Lu Yi what I said, and remember to ask her to take you to buy some more clothes."
Lu Ping said with a smile.
"Thank you, master. We understand." Xishi and the other three bowed quickly.
Lu Ping waved his hand and then sent the four girls back to the real world.
After finishing, Lu Ping opened the system panel.
After taking over old Andrew's territory, Lu Ping's territory suddenly expanded sevenfold and its population doubled.
Including Lu Pingyuan's territory, Lu Ping now has five county towns, more than 200 villages, and a population of 1.5 million.
With such strength, Lu Ping can even gain a foothold on the third floor.
But as the territory expanded, problems also arose.
The first is the food issue.
Lu Ping took a careful look and found that old Andrew's territory was not small, but the land was relatively barren and the grain yield was not high.
The current food production can only feed 70,000 soldiers at most, and that’s putting it in a positive light.
The second is public opinion. After the merger, Lu Pingling's public opinion has dropped from 83 to exactly 80 points.
If it drops any further, it will immediately attract bandits again. This problem must be taken seriously by Lu Ping.
Lu Ping now has two hundred villages. If bandits start to appear, it will be impossible to handle them.
He did not have so many soldiers, nor so many generals, to guard two hundred villages at the same time.
Another problem is that Lu Ping is currently seriously lacking in civil officials.
It is conceivable that such a large territory naturally requires more civil officials to govern.
Lu Ping did capture five civil officials from old Andrew, but these five people were only second- or third-rate and could only be used.
Therefore, Lu Ping also needs to solve the problem of civil officials as soon as possible.
