From refugee NPC to mythical general

Chapter 54 Sir, you really know how to lick

The battle came to an end, the last ray of sunset set in the west, and night slowly rose.

The lights were lit in the General's Village, and they shone brightly on the low hills like tiny stars.

The militiamen were confiscating supplies and counting the death toll.

Zhuge Liang was also counting his gains. Although Liao Hua escaped in this battle, the result was good overall. He killed a total of 61 enemies and gained 3660 experience points!

After upgrading to a ninth-rate general, Zhuge Liang's total experience value reached 8000, which is less than half.

I gained 366 skill points, a total of 421. I'm afraid it's still not as much as killing Liao Hua alone, but it's useless to say this now, after all, Liao Hua has already fled.

Zhuge Liang then searched in the general's camp to see if he could find anything else, but to his disappointment, he did not find any supplies that could help him from Liao Hua's place.

Ning Mengya and Guo Tu rushed over first and immediately began to count the supplies.

The harvest this time was quite good, with a total of 63 gold coins, 89 silver coins, and 16 copper coins. It can be seen that Liao Hua is much richer than the other two bandit villages!

After collecting these coins, the resources of Dameng Village now become 65 gold coins, 86 silver coins, and 5 copper coins!

Daming Town now has the qualifications to build city walls, but it requires 400 gold coins, which is still a long way from enough to build the city walls.

But after conquering the three villages of Jiangjun Village, Longhu Village and Yinling Village, the territory of Daming Town expanded to as much as three miles in radius!
These three villages have many resources, whether it is farmland, hunting, firewood, iron ore, etc., which will enable Daming Town to increase its resource acquisition speed to a higher level in the future.

400 gold coins are just a matter of time!

With Liao Hua's escape from Jiangjunzhai, Daming Town will no longer face any crisis in the next month or so. In other words, this month is an excellent development opportunity for Daming Town.

After this month is over, the entire map will be unlocked and players can attack each other.

Until now, Zhuge Liang still didn't know where they were. Only by knowing their geographical location could he plan the goal of future hegemony.

If we were sent to Lingnan... then we would be basically finished. It would be difficult to get out of Lingnan, let alone enter Guanzhong and compete for the Three Kingdoms.

After the territory is expanded, soldiers will inevitably be needed to guard the borders of each territory. Although Daming Village will be safe and sound in the next month, it is still necessary to send soldiers to guard the border. Practicing border guarding in advance is not a bad thing for the future.

……

Dameng Town.

Ning Mengya checked the attributes of her territory.

【Lord】: Lemon Duck

[Fiefdom]: Dameng Town (first-level town)

[Members]: Villagers*157, Militia*66 (Archers*15, Sword and Shield Soldiers*8, Spearmen*13, Cavalry*5, Infantry*10, Scouts*5, Axemen*6, Halberd Soldiers*4)

[Buildings]: Barracks (Level 4), Hospital (Primary)

[Resources]: Food*8456, Gold Coins 65, Silver Coins 86, Copper Coins 5
Ning Mengya found Zhuge Liang and informed him of the casualties among the soldiers on the battlefield. A total of 36 soldiers died in this battle.

After a moment of silence, Ning Mengya said to Zhuge Liang with a slightly tangled look: "Zhuge Liang, I now have 65 gold coins. It takes 50 gold coins to upgrade Dameng Town to a second-level town, and the maximum amount of a fourth-level barracks is 200."

She only needs to continue recruiting soldiers for the barracks on recruitment day. Recruiting an NPC for 200 copper coins may be expensive in the early stages, but it is not difficult for Ning Mengya now.

The problem is the gold coins.

Although she has more than 50 gold coins now, the problem is that the construction of the city wall of Dameng Town is also very important, and it is also important for Zhuge Liang to continue to upgrade the eighth-rate generals. So she was entangled and didn't know how to choose, so she told Zhuge Liang these things and let Zhuge Liang make his own decision.

Zhuge Liang naturally wanted to upgrade the eighth-rate generals as soon as possible, but the problem was that one month later players would be able to attack each other, and neither Zhuge Liang nor Ning Mengya knew what strength the other side had, what kind of generals they had, etc.

The unknown means there will be danger.

The defense of the player's territory becomes crucial at this time.

Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and said to Ning Mengya: "After the development this month, we will see how much money we have and give priority to building the city wall."

Ning Mengya was silent for a moment, and said: "But it is also very important for you to improve your strength. What if a stronger general comes to attack Dameng Village..."

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "I don't want to become the next Liao Hua, sacrificing the lives of all the villagers and soldiers in exchange for my own survival."

"Okay, stop worrying about it, just do it."

"Oh." Ning Mengya nodded obediently.

After Ning Mengya left, Guo Tu came to the meeting room and bowed to Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Sir, it's not even the New Year yet, why are you almost ready to kowtow to me?"

Guo Tu said solemnly, "General, you are kind-hearted. As the saying goes, a kind person is invincible. I admire you wholeheartedly!"

Zhuge Liang asked suspiciously, "What do you mean?"

Guo Tu said: "The general has the demeanor of a hero, and the benevolence of a wise ruler. He can make choices when faced with interests. If he becomes a lord one day, how can the people under his jurisdiction not bow down to him?!"

"Just because of my choice this time? I didn't prioritize my own strength improvement, but considered the survival of my soldiers and people?"

Guo Tu nodded and said, "Perhaps the general thinks this is easy, but in my opinion this choice is not easy."

"What if I choose to improve my strength?"

Guo Tu said: "The general may become a hero in the future, admired by thousands of people."

Zhuge Liang asked again: "What about selecting soldiers and people?"

Guo Tu paused briefly and said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "With a pool of ten thousand chariots and the hearts of all the people, we can unify the world and become the master!"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Sir, you are really good at licking. This makes me feel very comfortable. Okay, with me here, you will be safe and sound. I am leaving."

Zhuge Liang waved his hand and left the meeting room in a leisurely manner.

Guo Tu stood there, his mouth twitching slightly. What kind of licking is this? I'm telling you the truth. Do you think you can conquer the world just by being the strongest? How can it be that easy?
Without the loyalty of your soldiers and the submission of your subjects, it would be very difficult to conquer the world!

Guo Tu shook his head slightly.

Zhuge Liang had already arrived at the riverside of Dameng Town and shouted, "Come out!"

Hiss, plop, plop.

The river water rolled, and then a huge black monster gradually emerged from the water. The Chimang lazily swam out of the water and came in front of Zhuge Liang, as if it had just woken up from a nap. Its eyes were round and staring at Zhuge Liang, as if asking, "What are you doing?"

Zhuge Liang patted Chimang's head and said, "I'll give you a little sweetness. You performed well in protecting the villagers last time."
