The Chinese New Year is approaching, and many people began to give gifts to Fang Li, although most of them were politely declined, but there was still an endless stream of three sects and nine streams who visited the General's Mansion every day.

When the water is clear, there is no fish, and there are no friends when people are observed, and it happens that Fang Li is also in need of money, so he selectively receives gifts, and when he sees those local tyrants who are full of fat brains and big bellies, he smiles unceremoniously.

Fang Li set up a treasury in his general's mansion, guarded by forty henchmen in turn, and as the wealth inside became more and more, Fang Li believed that one day it would come in handy.

With the lesson of being stabbed by Xia Ran in Chenggao, Fang Li paid special attention to his own safety during the days he returned to Hanoi, and the summoning of life and the enjoyment of life were equal to zero, so it was urgent to form a team of pro-soldiers with strong combat effectiveness.

Just before Zhou Yu led the army to the expedition, Fang Li asked Chen Deng to select five hundred candidates for himself from the entire army, and then personally conducted a second screening, from which he selected two hundred elite and agile soldiers as his guards.

In addition to guarding the safety of the General's Mansion, these people must also protect Fang Li at any time to prevent the assassination from happening again.

Fang Li divided the two hundred people into four teams and selected four leaders to serve as team leaders.

And these four people also have their own characteristics, one is the horse skin that followed Zhang Liao to bury gold in Wangwu Mountain, which makes a good steel knife, seven or eight strong men difficult to get close, witty, good at improvisation, and more importantly, the foot strength is outstanding.

The second is a strong man who is nearly nine feet tall, with infinite strength, but unfortunately his body lacks flexibility and his mind is relatively dull. As the name suggests, people are so honest.

The third is good at using hidden weapons, carrying thistles, lancets and other hidden weapons, climbing over the wall and crossing the courtyard, such as walking on the ground, the ranger got a nickname when he was around, called "Flying on the Grass", and his own name is also called Cao Fei.

The fourth is very good at riding, skilled in arching horses, with a quick surname, he used to serve as a lieutenant in Yu State before, and when he heard that the general was going to recruit personal guards, he resolutely signed up for the recruitment, and was finally selected by Fang Li.

Of course, Fang Li also understood that these four people were just generals in the middle of the army, they were all guys with a strong force of 70, and the highest martial arts Jian Kuai was only 76 in force, which was still much inferior to himself, and it was a fool's dream to expect them to protect themselves on the battlefield!

But as the saying goes, guns are easy to dodge and hidden arrows are difficult to prevent, and Fang Li recruited them not to expect these people to protect themselves on the battlefield, but to follow him to guard against assassins to prevent him from being assassinated by angry young rangers like Xia Ran again.

Early in the morning, Fang Li had just opened his eyes, and he received a lot of gifts, and they were given by the system, "Qiang ...... Congratulations to the lord for winning the important town of Xingyang and getting a reward of 100 merit points! ”

"Congratulations to the lord, take down the Yanshi, and get the system's 20 merit point reward!"

"Congratulations to the lord, take Jingxian County and get the system 10 merit point reward!"

"Congratulations to the lord, take Yangcheng and get the system 10 merit point reward!"

"Congratulations to the lord, the number of troops under his command has increased by 20,000, the total strength has risen to 80,000, and 20 merit points have been awarded!"

Fang Li got up excitedly: "Okay, I won't accept gifts for the holidays this year, and I will receive merit points for gifts!" ”

After the merger of Yu and Yu, its strength increased greatly, with a total population of more than 2 million, and the number of troops was approaching 100,000, and the territory spanned both sides of the Yellow River, with mountains and rivers, and the area was gradually expanding.

Supplemented by Zhou Yu, Xun Yu, Zhao Yun, Chen Deng, Yan Liang, Yingbu, Xianbei, Ma Dai, Ji Ling, Lu Yi, Cao Xing, Liao Hua and other civil and military forces, the strength of the Tang State has surpassed that of most of the midstream countries, and is almost comparable to second-rate powers such as Han, Shandong, and Vietnam.

But Fang Li understood the truth of the tree's big move, before Yu and Yu were small countries, except for the bordering Jin State bullying them every day, there were few countries that took Yu Yu in their eyes, even if Zhou Yu won a few battles, the princes only paid a little attention.

However, as Fang Li led the Yu coalition army to beat the Jin army, which was the "five great powers", so that the Jin army lost about 70,000 troops in the Yu country, this could not but attract the attention of the princes, and even impressed.

"Jin is one of the five great powers, equivalent to one of the five permanent members of the United Nations in later generations, and it was also beaten too embarrassed, right?" Fang Li got up and washed up while thinking about the next step in the situation.

Mu Xiu was bound to destroy it by the forest wind, and then Fang Li merged Yu into one, and took advantage of the fact that all countries were recuperating in the winter to take Xingyang with lightning speed, pacifying the southern region of the Kingdom of Qiu, and announcing the official rise of the Tang Kingdom.

Such a speed of development is bound to attract the goals of various powerful countries in the world, even including the two giants of Qi and Qin, which are far away, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will not have thoughts about the Tang State.

When the weather warmed up, Fang Li didn't know what kind of situation the Tang Kingdom was facing, so Fang Li understood that the talents under his command were far from enough, and it was best for the system to give him 1,000 merit points and 10,000 merit points at once, and summon all the talents with names and surnames in the Three Kingdoms!

After Fang Li finished washing, he beckoned Jing Xi to make himself a pot of tea, then inserted the door from the inside, then returned to the back of the bookcase and sat down, took out his mobile phone from his sleeve and slid the screen to enter the Dianjiang platform.

Fang Li first checked the merit points he had, he currently had 160, and he could recruit six generals, or recruit one famous general, and then recruit two generals.

"Hmm...... Let's try your luck today, how about recruiting generals? Fang Li clicked on the screen and chose to consume 25 merit points for a general recruitment.

With the operation of Fang Li's fingers, the purple light flashed on the screen, and the room was full of light, and a portrait of a civil official of about thirty appeared.

At the same time, a prompt sounded in Fang Li's mind: "Qiang ...... Congratulations to the lord for obtaining the purple quality talent Liu Ye of Wei - Dominance 63, Wu Yong 47, Strategy 92, and Internal Affairs 88. At present, he is the shopkeeper of Hanoi's 'Liu Ji Craftsman's Shop', and the owner only needs to visit in person to collect it for his own use. ”

Fang Li suddenly had an epiphany: "No wonder this guy is holding a document and making random comparisons, it turns out to be Liu Ziyang, who is good at invention and creation!" I've been thinking about making some siege weapons these days, such as storming vehicles, thunderbolts, well fences and other equipment, and it's just too good for Liu Ye to come! ”

25 merit points summoned Liu Ye, who was good at invention, Fang Li was very satisfied with this, and decided to strike while the iron was hot and consume 100 merit points to try his luck, "Cao Apu, Zhuge Kongming, Lu Fengxian, Guan Yunchang...... Come to my Datang bowl and come out quickly! ”

I saw an orange light flashing on the screen, and the house was full of light, even though it was broad daylight at the moment, the house was still illuminated, as if I was in a fairyland.

Fang Lideng's spirit was lifted, his fists were clenched, and he roared excitedly: "Okay, I've summoned an orange-quality general!" ”

I saw a tiger-backed bear-waisted, bearded, majestic man with a fierce and murderous face, as if the evil of the ancients came, holding a pair of iron halberds in his hand.

"Qiang ...... Congratulations to the lord for winning the orange quality military general Wei Guodian Wei - 75 Dominance, 97 Wu Yong, 38 Strategy, and 27 Internal Affairs. The current implanted identity is ...... Dian Wei will come to Hanoi with the life of the lord in the near future, so stay tuned! ”

Fang Li was a little surprised, and said in surprise: "Uh...... Dian Wei brought my background to defect, what is my background? Could it be that he is still from a big family, which is a bit interesting! ”

Although there are many princes in this world, almost all of them are the blood of the nobles of the Zhou Dynasty, either the Ji family or the famous generals; If you are from a poor family, it is still possible to become a general and prime minister, but it is undoubtedly difficult to ascend the throne and become the head of a country.

Even if he is forcibly on the throne, if he does not have a noble bloodline, he will be spurned and despised by other princes, and even attack him en masse. It's like the later Liu Bang ascended to the throne as a pavilion chief, and since then he has often been used as an example by heroes who were born in a reckless manner.

If Dian Wei can bring Fang Li a prominent life experience, it will undoubtedly be good news for Fang Li to ascend the throne and stand on his own feet in the future, and it will be enough to get twice the result with half the effort. The effect is far greater than obtaining a city and recruiting tens of thousands of soldiers, and Fang Li is full of expectations for it.

Fang Li excitedly paced back and forth in the study, clasped his arms in front of his chest and muttered: "This Wei State's Yiwen and Wuwu are too timely, Liu Ye can help my Tang Dynasty make all kinds of siege weapons." And Dian Wei not only brought me the mystery of my background, but also served as my captain of the guard. With this ancient evil to protect by my side, even Xiang Yu doesn't want to hurt me! ”

After wandering back and forth in the study for a while, Fang Li's excited mood calmed down, and he swiped the screen to check that there were still 35 merit points left, and he could recruit another general.

"My Datang is at the time of employing people, the more talents, the better, and another general!" Fang Li tapped his finger at the screen and chose to consume 25 merit points for a general recruitment.

This time, the mobile phone screen flashed with blue light, and I saw a sword-eyed and starry eyes, a military general wearing armor and armor hanging a sword from his waist, almost wanting to break out of the screen, and seemed to be extremely eager to come to this world to fight the world.

"Qiang ...... Congratulations to the lord for obtaining the blue quality military general Wu Guo Xu Sheng - 88 dominant, 84 Wu Yong, 73 strategy, 61 internal affairs, the current implanted identity is the team rate stationed in Hanoi, and the lord can be promoted by himself! ”

Fang Li frowned and groaned; "Xu Wenxiang who broke Cao Pi with fire? It's really a member of Wu Jiang! Although the force is slightly inferior, but the ability to command the army is worth seeing, second only to Zhou Yu, Zhang Liao, and Zhao Yun among the existing generals in my Datang, he is a trustworthy general! ”

"General, it's time for breakfast!"

Just when Fang Li was immersed in the summoning world, Jing Xi came like a happy bird to summon him to eat in the side hall, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Fang Li holding a square thing in his hand, and couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Huh...... General, what are you holding in your hand? ”
