Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 210 Special Gift
After Wang Chen returned to his mansion, he smashed everything in the house, and all the servants in the mansion were silent.

It was not until nightfall that his house finally became quiet, and then he called someone into the room.

Wang Chen looked gloomy. The servant stood aside, his legs trembling a little, but he did not dare to ask.

"Go and see that Niu Jiao immediately and tell him to send troops to attack Liu He again! I must kill Liu He!"

The man said with some difficulty: "It's just that... the last time he attacked, he already knew Liu He's strengths and weaknesses. How could he be willing to attack again?"

"Humph, Zhang Niujiao is a very ambitious and cunning guy. Although he knows that Liu He has an army of more than 80,000, he is probably ahead of me when it comes to who wants to deal with Liu He the most. As long as Liu He is killed, he can legitimately become the leader of the Taiping Army and command millions of Taiping bandits across the world. What's more, this guy is about to unite with Chu Yan. By then, he will have an army of more than 100,000, and these troops will naturally be as brave as him."

Wang Chen thought about it and still felt that it was not safe enough.

"Tell him that Liu He now has hundreds of thousands of stones of grain and fodder, and he also has several peerless divine weapons that can cut through hair and iron like mud. They may be some secret magic treasures left by Zhang Jiao. If he doesn't take them, after this autumn, all these grains and treasures will fall into the hands of the Xianbei people."

"I understand, I'll do it right away."

The man took the order and retreated.

"Hmph, Liu He, I originally thought it was just a minor illness, but I didn't expect it to become such a serious problem today. Since I dare to come out to meet you, I will fight you to the death. Otherwise, if you continue to rise like this, sooner or later I will be the one to die!"

The appearance of Wang Chen and Lu Bu was like a spring breeze blowing across the lake to the Yanmen army. It only caused a brief ripple, and soon returned to calm. The only difference was that the soldiers trained more diligently. Many soldiers privately said that even if they could not become a powerful general like Guan Yu, they should at least aim to be very powerful.

Although Liu He did not agree with this goal, after all, they did not have great talent. Of course, he would not point it out to avoid destroying everyone's enthusiasm.

By mid-September, the weather in the north had become very cool. After being idle for more than half a month, many people could not wait any longer.

Now that the army is in control and morale is high, a new batch of weapons and armor has been transported from Langtiao County and Yu County. Most of the soldiers have already used the new equipment made by the three masters Pu, Xiao, and Fang, who personally led hundreds of blacksmiths and hundreds of female workers. They all look eager to try.

Guan Yu also selected 1,000 of the stronger ones from the 1,300 war horses confiscated from the twelve major families, and formed 500 cavalrymen according to the same pattern of one man riding two horses. Thus, the cavalrymen in the Yanmen garrison expanded to 1,500 people.

Soon after the competition, Zhu Ye successfully selected his own 100 hammer cavalrymen, and started his unique training with 200 war horses. Liu He was not very clear about the specific training method, but he only knew that his 100 men were the most diligent in going to the public bathhouse, and soon even their appetites were much larger than other soldiers.

Liu He inspected the city defenses and was about to go back to practice martial arts when he saw Cui Jun, Guan Yu and others suddenly running over and grabbing him mysteriously.

Cheng Liang said excitedly: "Hey, big brother, come on, follow me and I'll show you some good stuff!"

Liu He was somewhat puzzled: "What are you guys up to again?"

Guan Yu stroked his long beard and smiled, "Brother, have you forgotten that last month, on the twelfth, you were supposed to be 20 years old, but we were in a hurry at that time and didn't have time to prepare it. These days, my brothers and the military advisor have prepared a gift for you to celebrate."

Liu He was a little amused.

"You guys are making such a fuss, so it's just for this? I'm only twenty, not eighty. Why should I celebrate my birthday? Why waste money like this? I won't go, no matter what. I won't go even if you kill me."

Liu He was about to turn around and leave, but Guan Yu and others surrounded him.

"Haha, big brother, this gift is specially prepared for you today. We have discussed it for a long time and feel that this gift is really necessary. Big brother, you must accept it!"

Zhu Ye grabbed Liu He and seemed to be refusing to let him go unless he agreed to go.

Zhang Yong also advised: "Brother, this item cost us a lot of effort. Now the situation in Yanmen County is changing, and I am afraid that a war is coming. This item is very important to you, brother, please don't refuse it."

Liu He looked at them doubtfully. "What good stuff is there that I have to go and see in person?"

"My lord, please don't ask. Just follow me and we will see."

Liu He sighed: "Well, since the military advisor said so, then you can go and see what kind of magical object it is."

"Haha, don't worry, I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"

Zhu Ye was the most excited and rushed to the front.

The place they arrived at was actually the gate of Liu He's own Duwei Mansion. The only difference from usual was that there was a group of soldiers standing in line at the gate.

These soldiers stood in neat rows, all of them were in high spirits, and even their statures were similar, almost all of them were about nine feet tall, with sturdy builds, and majestic and spirited looks.

Liu He made a quick count and found that there were exactly a hundred people, no more, no less.

"This is……"

Liu He probably realized that these one hundred people should be the gifts mentioned by Cui Jun and others, but he couldn't figure out what was going on.

Zhang Yong stepped forward and said, "Brother, we spent quite a bit of time selecting these 100 men after the last competition. They are the best in our army in terms of character, loyalty, and physical fitness. I wanted to equip you with weapons as well, but after thinking about it, it would be better for you to decide what weapons they should use."

"I wonder if Big Brother is satisfied with these 100 people?"

Guan Yu's question left Liu He a little confused.

"Satisfied? Satisfied with what? Why is my mind such a mess?"

Cui Jun said: "Haha, these are the guards that the generals personally selected for the lord. They will be responsible for the lord's safety in the future. Naturally, we have to ask the lord whether he is satisfied first."

Liu He now understood why everyone was so mysterious.

"So that's what happened. Why did they suddenly choose my personal guards? Such excellent soldiers are not sent to fight and charge, but are used to guard by my side. It's really a pity. No, no."

Liu He turned around and wanted to leave, but was stopped again by Guan Yu and others.

"Brother, we brothers have to step in and make the decision for you. Mr. Xu Zijiang once said that you are proud of your bravery and don't pay attention to your own safety and defense. If this continues, you may be harmed by villains."

"Second brother is right. Besides, last month, in the battle with Zhang Niujiao, eldest brother was almost injured. You have a heavy responsibility and must not take your life lightly. The formation of a personal guard is imperative."

Guan Yu and Zhang Yong spoke with confidence, and Cheng Liang and others also agreed and echoed them.

You and I were talking at the same time, as if Liu He would be committing a serious crime if he did not accept this group of personal guards.

"Alright, alright, I'll accept this gift, okay? I just want you to have some peace of mind for a while."

These two hundred people are actually his own guard team. Liu He picked a few of them at random and checked with the system. Most of them can reach a force of 65. In addition, they are all young. If he trains them well, there is still hope that their personal force can reach more than 70. Some elites can even have higher force.

Such an army, equipped with good weapons and armor, and specialized battle formations, even with only a hundred people, its combat effectiveness is exciting enough.
