Chapter 156

Of the two hundred high-tier troop units brought from Bai Yun Town, almost half died in battle.

Even one-third of the three hundred heavy cavalry allocated by the Zhending County Magistrate were lost.

This was something that couldn't be helped.

Before Su Li killed Peng Hu, breaking through the formation composed of bandits inevitably required using human lives to pile up.

If he relied solely on his own strength to charge the formation, it would undoubtedly be like an old man hanging himself—tired of living.

Overall.

Attacking a stronghold with a force of over five thousand, and also having a General-level leader, losing less than half of the troop units was something Su Li could accept.

With the addition of Zhao Yu, persuading the people of Zhao Village to settle in Bai Yun Town was easy to discuss.

As for the thousands of refugees in the basin behind.

Although they had all lost their desire for life, it was better to live than to die; once guided, they were willing to follow Su Li.

A total of 3,524 people joined Bai Yun Town without exception, causing the population of Bai Yun Town to increase fourfold directly.

With so many people, plus the resources obtained from the Tiger Might Sect, it was enough to support Bai Yun Town in upgrading from a Level 1 town to a real city!

Shortly after.

He brought all the resources and these three thousand-plus people down the mountain.

As for this Tiger Might Sect...

Su Li burned it directly with a fire.

"Congratulations! You have destroyed a large mountain stronghold and gained 2000 reputation."

He had gained another 2000 reputation happily.

Reputation points were good things.

Gaining more not only allowed one to obtain additional reputation titles but also allowed players to get more attention in this Three Kingdoms world.

Thereby welcoming some unexpected benefits and reputation.

For example, this bandit suppression mission and the three hundred heavy cavalry allocated by the Zhending County Magistrate.

If it weren't for the fact that Su Li had previously broken a mountain stronghold and gained reputation, becoming famous far and near.

He really wouldn't have been able to get these things together.

After going down the mountain.

Su Li went to see the Zhending County Magistrate to report that the Tiger Might Sect had been broken by him.

And casually find an excuse to pocket the remaining two hundred or so heavy cavalry.

Who would have thought.

The Zhending County Magistrate didn't even mention asking for the heavy cavalry back.

He just said that losses were inevitable in bandit suppression.

He would report truthfully to his superiors that three hundred heavy cavalry and a number of high-tier troop units had died in the suppression of the Tiger Might Sect.

Good guy.

Su Li heard the meaning in it.

This was clearly wanting to split the spoils.

Giving the remaining heavy cavalry to him as a benefit.

In addition, the Zhending County Magistrate himself would also embezzle some high-tier troop units as private soldiers.

After all.

Did the Zhending County Magistrate provide any high-tier troop units for this bandit suppression?

Not at all!

Yet when reporting, he added a loss of high-tier troop units.

What this represented was self-evident.

Finally, when walking out of the Zhending County Government Office, Su Li looked at the sky and couldn't help but sigh.

Sure enough... corruption existed everywhere!

However... he liked this kind of corruption!

After this.

Su Li had originally planned to go to Changshan Commandery first to deliver the bandit suppression mission to the Changshan Commandery Governor and receive the reward.

But considering that it was inconvenient to bring more than three thousand refugees there.

He could only take the main force and return to Bai Yun Town first.
