Rise of the Heavens

Chapter 120 One Million Dollars (Third Update)
The southeast of Xu County is Peiguo, and then cross Yingshui again and go eastward, passing through more than a dozen cities and traveling thousands of miles before reaching Xuzhou.I don't know how many mountains and rivers to cross on the way.

However, with Gao Cheng, Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao sitting in command, their team did not encounter much danger, and arrived at the junction of Xuzhou and Yuzhou after a few months.

After Yuzhou's largest Yellow Turban army was defeated, millions of troops disappeared, adding to the prestige of Huangfusong and Zhu Jun, and even Cao Cao, the captain of cavalry, became famous. The Prime Minister of Jinan is in charge of the life and death of millions of people in Jinan.

After the army collapsed, countless small groups of Yellow Turban rebels scattered to the Central Plains. Some wanted to continue to seek refuge with other Yellow Turban marshals, while others turned into bandits and bandits to rob villages and forts in order to survive.These people even joined forces to form an army of tens of thousands of people.However, they did not dare to attack the city so as not to attract elite officers and soldiers to wipe them out.

Naturally, Gao Cheng would not take [-] of his men to fight against bandits and rebellious soldiers of this scale, lest the elite soldiers who had just been tempered suffer too much damage.

"Finally arrived in Xuzhou!" Gao Tai heaved a sigh of relief. After such a long time of trekking, everyone was very tired, but when he saw the three hundred men behind him who were vigorous and strong, he couldn't help feeling a surge in his heart. share joy.

Encountered many enemies along the way, after many fights, and even encountered three waves of bandits a day at most.However, no matter how many enemies he encountered, he did not let Young Master and Zhou Cang take action. Instead, he led three hundred men to fight recklessly with the opponent, and they all won in the end.

Losses are unavoidable during the fight, but these are within a controllable range. With Gao Cheng's permission, he quickly absorbed the strength of some scattered refugees and replenished to 300 people.Now these three hundred soldiers are all brave men who have cultivated the golden bell jar to the first level.

In the past few months, he and Zhang Chen, Zhou Cang and others have worked hard to train troops, and his own combat experience in commanding troops has become very rich, and he has truly grown up and become a qualified general.

"It's a pity that I didn't meet Xu Chu when I passed by Qiao County!" Gao Cheng turned his head and glanced in the direction of Pei Guo, feeling a little regretful in his heart.

When passing through Peiguo, he heard that He Yi and He Man regrouped the defeated soldiers and gathered more than ten thousand soldiers and horses. However, when the two men attacked Wubao where the Xu family was located, they provoked Xu Chu, the murderous god.

Xu Chu immediately led more than a thousand private soldiers from the Xu family, and beat He Yi and He Man back dozens of miles, so that the other party would never dare to offend the Wubao of the local wealthy family at will.

After the news came out, Xu Chu's reputation instantly spread throughout Peiguo, and he was noticed by those powerful families.

Gao Cheng is now just a child of a small family, without any official position, even if he sees Xu Chu, it will be in vain. Xu Chu is not Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao, he himself leads a thousand private soldiers of the Xu family, and his own strength has also reached an extraordinary level .If it wasn't for one side's overlord, don't want him to take refuge in his service.

"Let's go! Let's go to Xiapi first, and see if there are any bandits and bandits on the way. The yellow scarves in Xuzhou are not too serious. The bandits here should have some money and food! When we get to Xiapi, buy some clothes and weapons first, and put the clothes on your body. The clothes have changed, otherwise people will think we are a group of refugees!" Gao Cheng didn't continue to think, his eyes swept over the mountains of his subordinates, and his brows frowned slightly.

Killed dozens of bandits and Yellow Turban rebels in Yuzhou. Unfortunately, most of the opponents were broken Yellow Turbans. They didn't have any oil on their bodies. Apart from adding some fate points to him, they didn't get much spoils.All the subordinates are still dressed in rags, if they are not in good spirits, they are almost no different from refugees.

Fortunately, 300 people have already trained the first layer of the golden bell cover, and their strength has increased. They scattered in the mountains and forests and hunted many wild animals, barely filling their stomachs, so they don't need to think about the issue of food and grass for the time being.

Xuzhou is close to the sea and faces a great river in the south. The rivers and fields in the territory are flat, densely populated and very prosperous.

However, this prosperous scene is only limited to the vicinity of the city, and there are still many bandits in the vast mountains.These bandits have been entrenched in the mountains and forests all year round. They have robbed and killed many merchants and passers-by, and accumulated a lot of money and materials.

Apart from the most precious and precious cultivation techniques in Gao Cheng's hands, there are only these [-] subordinates, and everything else, be it money or food, is extremely scarce.It happened that the bandits used their accumulation to make up for their own deficiencies.

……

Three days later, at the bottom of a forest, Gao Cheng rode a horse and looked far ahead. The shouts of killing from the forest in front of him gradually subsided. This place was close to the road, and hundreds of bandits on the mountain occupied the forest and looted houses.After inquiring about the news, he immediately led everyone to come here at the cost of dozens of miles.They sent Gao Tai, Zhou Cang and two hundred elites to attack the cottage.

With Zhou Cang, a warrior of the seventh level, taking action, these bandits would be no match no matter how many they had. At this time, Gao Tai hurried back from the mountain with a few people, with an uncontrollable joy on his face.

"Young master! This time is really a big harvest! This cottage actually has two hundred stones of grain and grass, more than 70 long spears, more than 100 shields... In addition to these, there are [-] million yuan! I don't know about these How many people and merchants have been robbed by bandits! How can they save so much money and food!"

After Gao Tai told the harvest this time, everyone was stunned for a moment, even Gao Cheng was no exception. Leaving aside weapons such as guns, shields and swords, two hundred stones of food and grass were enough for all of them to eat for half a month. The most important thing was It is 100 five baht.When Gao Cheng’s original body was in Guangling, the price of a bucket of rice was tens of dollars. If he saved some food, a commoner could support him for three or four days.

"One million dollars!" Not far away, Pei Yuanshao showed a hint of greed in his eyes. Money touches people's hearts. When he heard such a large sum of money, he suddenly felt greedy.
But when he saw Gao Cheng's figure, his thoughts became sober as if cold water had been poured on him.

Because he was a little hesitant when he took refuge, Gao Cheng kept him by his side during this period of time, apart from helping train soldiers and beheading bandits, not giving him a chance to escape.

Over the past few months, he has gradually felt that with Gao Cheng as a powerful Patriarch, the Gao Clan of Guangling might rise to become a noble family in the future. It seems that it is not bad to join such a noble family!
Both Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang were born in yellow scarves. Although they are not weak, their identities are too embarrassing. If they want to join a powerful family, they can't find a way out. Instead of wandering into the mountains and becoming bandits, it is better to hide in the Gao family and slowly practice.As long as he can break through the realm and become an extraordinary powerhouse.At that time, the world will be left alone.
