Chapter 72
Looking at Zhao Yu and Linglong getting along so happily, if they were to marry the same person in the future, it would be very harmonious, right?
Su Li's thoughts somehow drifted to this point.
At this time, Luo Mu Qingqing's voice sounded beside him: "Big Brother Su, not bad, you've abducted another amazing girl."
There was a hint of envy in her tone.
After all, Zhao Yu's strength was obvious to all; before comprehending the Fire Phoenix Spear Technique, she already had strength approaching that of a general.
Now that she had comprehended the Fire Phoenix Spear Technique, perhaps even an average entry-level general would not be her match.
"Look at what you're saying, what do you mean by 'abducted'."
"I clearly took her down by relying on my own personal charm, alright!"
Su Li rolled his eyes at Luo Mu Qingqing.
He really didn't like what this woman was saying.
"Yes, yes, yes, Big Brother Su, your personal charm is the greatest, even NPC girls are throwing themselves at you."
Luo Mu Qingqing echoed with a hint of affectation, then leaned over and whispered: "But Big Brother Su, you've taken in so many girls, can your body handle it? Why not share one with me?"
"I suspect you are being dirty and daydreaming."
Su Li retorted to Luo Mu Qingqing unhappily: "With this body of mine, I can handle even more girls; why don't we go to the small woods and try it out?"
What the 'small woods' represented, there probably wasn't a modern young man or woman who didn't know.
Luo Mu Qingqing was instantly like a broken defense, her face flushed red, her hands on her waist, her head turned away: "You... pervert! This girl won't try it with you."
"See, I gave you a chance, but you're useless."
Su Li shrugged slightly: "Since you don't want to try, let's part ways here."
"We'll meet again in the future, goodbye!"
After speaking, he turned around, preparing to finish the last few things and then head back.
"Wait."
Luo Mu Qingqing called out to Su Li, "Big Brother Su, can I add you as a friend?"
"Why, do you really want to find a time to go to the small woods and try it out with me?"
Su Li turned his head and looked at her with a smile.
"Big Brother Su, can you be serious? I just think that since we've met, adding a friend isn't too much to ask, right?"
Luo Mu Qingqing also rolled her eyes at Su Li.
This 'Big Brother' was amazing, and he looked quite handsome, but when he spoke, he was just asking for a beating!
"Fine, let's add each other as friends."
Su Li didn't refuse such a trivial matter.
He immediately added Luo Mu Qingqing.
A new player's name and avatar were added to the friend panel of the game system.
He glanced at it and found that there was also a sharing function on the friend panel.
It could share vision and location, and could also be turned off.
If this function was operated properly, it might be another means of obtaining intelligence on the battlefield in the future.
But for now.
If it were turned on, it would undoubtedly expose his privacy to the other party.
So Su Li chose to turn it off directly.
Then he didn't chat with Luo Mu Qingqing anymore and turned around to do the final cleanup work.
First was to count the harvest from attacking the Tiger Might Shanzhai.
Various basic resources totaling tens of thousands of units, thousands of ordinary equipment, and several 1-star rare equipment.
Besides that, there were tens of thousands of gold coins and various forging materials in the basement.
Actually, if one had to say, there was another resource, and that was population resources.
The thousands of refugees in the basin behind the training ground, as well as the hundred-plus people from Zhao Family Village, were now homeless; if he brought them back to White Cloud Town.
It would almost immediately maximize the population of White Cloud Town.
In this way, it would be hard for White Cloud Town not to enter a stage of rapid development!
However, while there was a harvest, there were also losses.
Half of the two hundred high-tier soldiers brought from White Cloud Town were killed in battle.
Even one-third of the three hundred heavy cavalry allocated by the Dingxian Magistrate were lost.
There was no helping it.
Before Su Li killed Peng Hu, breaking through the formation composed of bandits inevitably required using human lives to pile up.
If he had relied solely on his own strength to charge the formation, it would undoubtedly be like an old man hanging himself—tired of living.
All in all.
Attacking a mountain stronghold with a force of over five thousand, which also had a general-level leader, and losing less than half of his soldiers, Su Li could still accept it.
With Zhao Yu's joining, it was easy to persuade the people of Zhao Family Village to settle in White Cloud Town.
As for the thousands of refugees in the basin behind.
Although they had all lost their desire for life, it was better to live miserably than to die, and once guided, they were willing to follow Su Li.
A total of 3,524 people joined White Cloud Town, causing the population of White Cloud Town to quadruple directly.
With so many people, plus the resources obtained from the Tiger Might Shanzhai, it was enough to support White Cloud Town in upgrading to a real city!
Afterwards.
He brought all the resources and these three thousand-plus people down the mountain.
As for this Tiger Might Shanzhai...
Su Li burned it directly with a fire.
"Congratulations! You have destroyed a large mountain stronghold, gaining 2,000 reputation."
He had gained another 2,000 reputation points, which was great.
Reputation points were good things.
Gaining more not only allowed one to obtain additional reputation titles but also allowed players to receive more attention in this Three Kingdoms world.
Thereby bringing some unexpected benefits and reputation.
For example, this bandit-suppression mission and the three hundred heavy cavalry allocated by the Dingxian Magistrate.
If it weren't for the fact that Su Li had previously broken a mountain stronghold and gained reputation, becoming famous in the surrounding area.
He really wouldn't have been able to pull these things off.
After going down the mountain.
Su Li went to see the Dingxian Magistrate to report that the Tiger Might Shanzhai had been broken by him.
And casually thought of an excuse to pocket the remaining two hundred-plus heavy cavalry.
Who would have thought.
The Dingxian Magistrate didn't even mention asking for the heavy cavalry back.
He just said that losses were inevitable in suppressing bandits.
He would report truthfully to his superiors that three hundred heavy cavalry and a number of high-tier soldiers had died in the suppression of the Tiger Might Shanzhai.
Good guy.
Su Li understood the meaning behind this.
This was clearly wanting to split the difference.
Giving him the remaining heavy cavalry as a benefit.
In addition, the Dingxian Magistrate himself would embezzle some high-tier soldiers as his own private troops.
After all.
In this bandit suppression, did the Dingxian Magistrate provide any high-tier soldiers?
Not at all!
Yet when reporting, he added a loss of high-tier soldiers.
What this represented was self-evident.
Finally, when walking out of the Dingxian 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 Jun first to deliver the bandit-suppression mission to the Changshan Commandant and receive his reward.
But considering it was inconvenient to bring over three thousand refugees.
He could only take the main force and return to White Cloud Town first.
