[Ding! Four-star general bonus, soldier combat power increased by 10%]
As soon as the sound faded, a deafening roar was heard, and lightning flashed and thunder roared through the valley.
A handsome young general, dressed in white robes and holding a halberd, stood eight feet tall and stepped forward!
He exuded a chilling aura of killing intent.
You should know that the name Xue Rengui struck fear into the hearts of foreign tribes.
In the campaign against the Uyghurs, Xue Rengui took the lead and instantly fired three arrows, killing all three of the Turkic leaders.
He led 14,000 cavalrymen to pursue and kill the Uyghur Tiele tribe, captured their leader alive, and buried alive more than 100,000 prisoners of war from the nine tribes.
Xue Rengui led his army south to join forces with Li Ji's army at the gates of Pyongyang, leading to the fall of Goryeo.
Intelligent and resourceful, yet cold-blooded and ruthless.
Liu Wei is going to travel from Mayi to his fiefdom of Wuyuan City and establish his own territory beyond the Great Wall. He needs someone like Xue Rengui, a nemesis of foreign tribes!
"This humble general, Xue Li, greets my lord!"
Xue Rengui knelt on one knee and bowed with his hands clasped in greeting!
His handsome face seemed harmless.
But in those deep eyes, there was a bloodthirsty fervor.
"General, there's no need for such formalities, please rise!"
Liu Wei, with a gentle smile, offered his hands in a gesture of support and squinted at Xue Rengui.
[Name] Xue Rengui
[Alternative Name] White-Robed General
[Strength] 101
[Commander] 91
[Strategy] 85
[Politics] 76
[Weapons] Halberd, Heaven-Shaking Bow
[Mount] Snow Dragon Steed
[Loyalty] Unwavering loyalty
"Tsk tsk!"
Upon seeing Xue Rengui's attributes, Liu Wei couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
With a combat strength of 101, coupled with his excellent leadership and strategic skills, he would probably be able to completely overwhelm Lu Bu if they were to face off!
Having such an all-around, loyal general is something that will be pursued without hesitation.
Liu Wei was worried that along the way, there wouldn't be enough Xiongnu people for Xue Rengui to kill!
In addition, Liu Wei did not expect that four-star generals could also provide a combat power bonus to soldiers.
This 10% increase in combat power doesn't seem like much.
However, these soldiers were originally modeled after the White Robe Army, and their combat effectiveness had already surpassed that of many ordinary soldiers.
If it increases by another 10%, that would be absolutely incredible!
If a four-star general is this powerful, wouldn't a five-star general be able to destroy the world?
In the future, generals will conquer battlefields while beauties lie in bed!
Looking at my system panel again, it has changed:
[Host]: Liu Wei
[Points]: ... (increasing)
[Federation]: Wuyuan City, Shuofang Commandery (1200 square kilometers)
[Soldiers]: 3,000 swordsmen and shieldmen, 3,000 spearmen, 3,000 archers, and 1,000 light cavalry.
[Military General]: Xue Rengui (★★★★)
Hahaha!
This is the first time in so many days that Liu Wei has smiled so happily!
Laughter echoed through the valley, but Xue Rengui and his ten thousand soldiers remained expressionless, their eyes fixed straight ahead, and utterly silent.
"Xue Li!"
"Your subordinate is here!" Xue Rengui stepped forward, clasped his hands, and gave a military salute.
"Since this army was formed outside the Great Wall, let's name it the Great Wall Legion!"
"I hereby appoint you as the Commandant of the Vanquishing Army, and you shall command these 10,000 troops from this day forward!"
"Train diligently, await orders, and be ready to depart at any time!"
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, generals were still a rare and highly valuable commodity.
It wasn't until later, when warlords carved up the land and heroes vied for supremacy, that the title of general became so common that it lost its value.
A captain is already a high-ranking officer, such as the Eight Captains of the Western Garden.
It should be noted that the three famous generals of the Eastern Han Dynasty who quelled the Yellow Turban Rebellion—Huangfu Song, Lu Zhi, and Zhu Jun—held the official rank of General of the Household!
Moreover, according to custom, Liu Wei, as a marquis, was not allowed to establish his own residence and government office.
But at this time, Liu Wei was in the border region, where the sea was wide enough for fish to leap and the sky was high enough for birds to fly.
They could appoint their own troops however they pleased, without having to consider the thoughts of the Eastern Han court at all.
Liu Wei's decision not to directly appoint Xue Rengui as a general was already a very polite gesture towards Liu Hong.
After all, Liu Hong was still his adoptive father. If he did this, it would be tantamount to establishing his own small court and challenging the established order!
Although he has this idea for the future, Liu Wei does not plan to do it now.
Those who intend to eventually rule the Central Plains must have a righteous cause and a legitimate reason for doing so.
That's a story for another time!
Xue Rengui immediately accepted the order: "This humble general will obey the lord's command."
Immediately afterwards, Xue Rengui began to make various military arrangements for these 10,000 soldiers.
Swordsmen, spearmen, and archers were each appointed as captains and commanders respectively; cavalrymen were appointed as cavalry captains.
Xue Rengui arranged everything in an orderly manner.
Soon, this army of ten thousand men, under Xue Rengui's command, became as swift and effective as an extension of his own arm.
"My lord, this 10,000-strong force is ready and prepared for battle!"
The God of War is indeed the God of War!
Liu Wei nodded in satisfaction: "Very good!"
"My lord, these 10,000 troops need 20,000 catties of grain and fodder every day! Please arrange for a quartermaster to ensure their supply!"
Xue Rengui immediately reported this.
Looking at the remaining 30,000 points, Liu Wei had already considered exchanging them for food supplies.
In the system shop, 100 points can be exchanged for one shi of grain, which is about 120 jin.
With 10,000 men, each soldier needs at least 1.5 jin (750 catties) of fuel per day, while the warhorses need even more, with each horse requiring 3 jin (1.5 catties).
Xue Rengui's report of 20,000 catties of daily rations was absolutely true!
[Exchange for 380 shi of grain]
38,000 points can only be exchanged for 380 shi of grain, which is only a jin.
Although it was only enough to feed 10,000 people for two days, Liu Wei did not hesitate to clear all the points.
