"Great General of Divine Might, Great General of Divine Might."
In Yanggu County, the people gathered in the streets, beating drums and gongs to welcome Wang Han and his entourage into the city.
"Feeling good, huh?" Wang Han, riding Little White, asked Wu Song.
"Yes." Upon hearing this, Wu Song nodded heavily and said, "I have never felt so welcome before."
"When we go to the battlefield and win battles, the welcoming ceremony will be a thousand times more lively and grand than it is now," Wang Han said with a smile. "Only then can we be called true heroes."
"From now on, Wu Song will definitely fight to the death on the battlefield and bravely kill the enemy." Upon hearing this, Wu Song said excitedly.
"I believe that in your first battle, you'll return with a record of killing a hundred men," Wang Han said with a smile, showing great confidence in Wu Song.
Lu Zhishen and the others behind him didn't take it seriously. This was a military merit system that Wang Han had told them about. (More details later.) Although it hadn't been officially announced, they already knew about it in advance. Their strength was no longer what it used to be, and their goal was to get those 500 kills in the first battle, or even to win the title of 1,000 kills in the first battle.
"Steamed buns..." Behind the welcoming crowd gathered on the side of the street, Wu Dalang called out as he carried steamed buns on a shoulder pole.
"I heard that the man next to the Great General of Divine Might is called Wu Song, the second son in his family, also known as Wu Erlang. He has come to Yanggu County to find his older brother."
“I know that there are people in our Yanggu County who are following General Shenwei. Our Yanggu County has produced heroes.”
"Our Yanggu County is going to produce a great general in the future."
Nearby, amidst the bustling crowd, onlookers discussed the scene with pride. Those who could follow the Divine General were destined to become great heroes.
"It's Erlang, my brother!" Wu Dalang, who was selling steamed buns nearby, heard the discussion and his face lit up with joy. He quickly looked up and saw that the person riding the big tiger next to the Divine General was none other than his brother, Wu Song.
"Brother, brother, I'm your brother, brother!" Upon seeing Wu Song, Wu Dalang became excited and quickly picked up his load, jogging alongside the group as he ran, shouting as he went. Unfortunately, the cheers of the surrounding people were too loud for Wu Song to hear.
"That guy chasing after you sounds like he's calling you," Wang Han said to Wu Song, gesturing for Wu Song to look at Wu Dalang, who was running alongside the group behind the crowd.
Upon hearing this, Wu Song quickly looked over, but unfortunately Wu Dalang was too short and obscured by the crowd, so he couldn't see him. Wu Song searched carefully for a while but still couldn't find him.
“He said he’s your brother,” Wang Han said, raising his hand, and the line stopped.
Seeing the procession stop, Wu Dalang quickly pushed through the crowd and rushed out. However, because he was carrying a load and the surrounding people were too crowded, he tripped and fell.
"Brother!" Seeing Wu Dalang fall out of the crowd, and with Wang Han's reminder, Wu Song immediately recognized him. He jumped off the tiger demon, ran over, and personally helped Wu Dalang up. He immediately knelt down, kowtowed three times, and hugged Wu Dalang, saying excitedly, "Brother, I'm back. You've suffered so much."
"Brother." Holding Wu Song, Wu Dalang shed tears.
'No wonder Wu Song killed so many people for Wu Dalang later.' Looking at the two brothers' deep affection, Wang Han thought to himself. He instructed Wu Song, 'Wu Song, you can go back and reunite with your brother first. Tomorrow morning, bring your brother's family, pack your things and come to the county office to stay. Remember to make some freshly baked pancakes. I really want to eat them, and I want the brothers to have a taste too.'
"Thank you, General." Upon hearing this, Wu Song quickly released Wu Dalang from his embrace and said to Wang Han. Then he picked up Wu Dalang's pancake stand. Wang Han then led the group to continue their journey.
"Brother, you've really made something of yourself! General Shenwei is a man of great renown. From now on, you must be diligent and obedient by his side." After Wang Han left, Wu Dalang excitedly said to Wu Song, his face beaming with joy and pride that Wu Song could follow General Shenwei.
"Definitely, not only me, but you, brother, can also follow General Shenwei in the future." Upon hearing this, Wu Song said happily, sharing the good news with Wu Song.
“Nonsense! I’m already very happy that you’ve made something of yourself. You can’t let me upset the General and ruin your future,” Wu Dalang said.
“Brother, it’s true. The General himself said it. After you follow the General, I can bring you to live in the Divine Might General’s Mansion and do some small things. No one will dare to bully you while you work at the Divine Might General’s Mansion.” Wu Song quickly said, “You just heard the General say that we should go back and reunite. Pack your things first thing tomorrow morning and go to the county government. You will also need to go to the Divine Might General’s Mansion in the future.”
"Congratulations, Dalang, you're destined for great things in the future."
"Dalang, don't forget us, your neighbors, in the future."
Upon hearing Wu Song's words, the people around who were there to welcome them rushed forward to greet them, congratulating and flattering the two.

"This humble official, the magistrate of Yanggu County, pays his respects to the Divine Might General." On the other side, not long after Wu Song left, the magistrate of Yanggu County hurriedly arrived with his men to welcome Wang Han.
"I didn't come to Yanggu County for no reason. Gather everyone for me. When we get to the county government office, I have something to tell you to do," Wang Han said, leading his men to continue towards the county government office.
"Yes." The magistrate of Yanggu County quickly followed. At the same time, he instructed his men to summon all the constables, officers, and officials in charge of the county government office to the county government office.
After arriving at the county government office and settling into a place to rest, it was already night.
"General, except for a few places where guards must be left, all the rest of the people have been summoned." Before long, two or three hundred people had gathered in the county government office. The magistrate of Yanggu ran to Wang Han's side and reported.
