Chapter 164: Death or Surrender
Luo Ji’s words were like a sharp knife, plunging directly into Bai Ze’s weak spot, causing a clear look of pain to appear on his face.
For him to surrender?
He was unwilling!
He’d rather die fighting!
But if he didn’t surrender, those subordinates who had returned to save him would have to die with him!
How could he be so cruel?
Just as his heart was filled with painful struggle, Luo Ji, standing there, unhurriedly raised his right hand.
The meaning was obvious, the moment this hand fell, only death awaited them!
Luo Ji didn’t hesitate just because Bai Ze was a fierce general.
Because there was no need.
He wasn’t without talent under his command either, and this entire world would eventually be his.
In such a vast world, was he afraid of not finding a few fierce generals?
No matter how strong a fierce general was, it wasn’t enough to make him back down.
As his right hand fell, the archer unit soldiers began to draw their bows and ready their arrows.
Bai Ze, seeing this, narrowed his pupils and immediately shouted in panic.
“Stop!!”
Luo Ji didn’t stop.
How could this matter be decided by Bai Ze, a bird in a cage?
Seeing that the archer unit’s volley was about to be unleashed, at that moment, Bai Ze almost screamed out the words
“Surrender! I surrender!!”
Hearing the system prompt, Luo Ji’s descending right hand paused, then he waved his hand, and the archer unit soldiers immediately stopped their actions.
“Then put down your weapons and come down from there!”
Although the system prompt indicating the surrender of the opposing tribe had sounded, Luo Ji did not relax his vigilance.
Hearing this, Bai Ze, with a look of humiliation, threw his stone spear to the ground, then dismounted from his horse.
As things had developed to this point, Zhao Chuan and the others behind, seeing that Bai Ze had given up resistance, what meaning was there for them to continue resisting?
Finally, under the gaze of Luo Ji and the others, they all dropped their weapons.
Seeing this, Luo Ji didn’t stand on ceremony with them.
He beckoned, and the soldiers behind him immediately understood.
After quickly confiscating their weapons and horses, they finally felt completely at ease.
On the way back to the Iron Wall Tribe, Luo Ji naturally opened the attribute panel to take a look at Bai Ze, who had seemed to be cheating earlier.
He wanted to see what kind of attribute panel this cheater had!
[Name: Bai Ze
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Status: Fatigued, minor injuries
Loyalty: 61
Bravery: ★★★★☆
Intelligence: ★★★
Spirit: ★★★☆
Endurance: ★★☆
Leadership: ★★★☆
Talent: Martial God: All ‘Bravery-type’ skill effects increased by 80% (This talent is affected by ‘Bravery).

Inspire Morale (Active): When activated, overall morale of allied soldiers increased by 45% through simple words and actions.
Tactic: Cavalry Raid: Cavalry units personally led by him have a 30% increased success rate for raids.]
“Hiss—”
Even with prior psychological preparation, he was still utterly shocked the moment he saw this attribute panel!
Where in the hell did this pervert come from?
Too fierce, aren’t you?!
5-star max Bravery was somewhat expected, but Spirit and Leadership also reached double 4-star levels?
Total star rating reached nineteen stars!
To know that, currently in his entire civilization, there was only one person with a total star rating of nineteen stars, and that was himself.
Aside from that, even Zhao Pan only had eighteen stars.
And now, finally, a second talent with a total star rating of nineteen stars appeared, which was Bai Ze before his eyes…
However, that wasn’t all.
The ‘Martial God’ talent, four skills including ‘Man-Horse Unity,’ ‘Horsemanship Mastery,’ ‘Piercing Thrust,’ ‘Inspire Morale,’ plus the ‘Cavalry Raid’ tactic!
This skill tree was not only not messed up, it was as if it had been meticulously optimized!
If every new general recruited in the future had a skill tree as reliable as this, Luo Ji would probably be grinning from ear to ear.
However, there were also things that caused him stomachache, for example, the loyalty of only sixty-one points.
With the ‘Ruler’ talent’s bonus, it was still only sixty-one points.
There must have been definite enmity before!
But there was nothing to be done.
In reality, they did have enmity.
Just bring him back and wear him down slowly.
At least the minimum passing score was met.
With a bit of time, it could always be slowly raised.
In addition, Luo Ji also glanced at Zhao Chuan’s attribute panel.
In this era, someone who understood how to use cavalry’s speed advantage to leave first, let them relax their guard, and then suddenly return for a surprise attack, wanting to catch them off guard, was considered to have some brains.
His attribute panel shouldn’t be bad.
Facts proved it was indeed good.
Bravery, Intelligence, Spirit, and Leadership all reached 3-star max, and Endurance reached 4-star max.
Later, when the army scale grew, being a deputy general or something would be more than sufficient.
As for leading a force independently, a 4-star max Endurance always felt a little lacking…
Regardless, Luo Ji’s mood at this moment was very good.
Recruiting Bai Ze, this fierce general, was one reason.
Another more important reason was horse resources!
In other words, he could establish cavalry now!!
Without further ado, upon returning to the tribal camp, he immediately called Bai Ze over and inquired about the source of these horses.
Bai Ze was quite straightforward in response to Luo Ji’s questions.
After all, they were already in the opponent’s hands, and this matter couldn’t be concealed.
The only difference was whether he voluntarily told them, or if Luo Ji would spend some time finding out on his own in the grassland.
Being someone with 3-stars in Intelligence, he understood this very clearly, and he spoke out quite readily.
This way, at least their newly surrendered group might have a slightly better time here.
The rest was easy.
He directly had Zhao Chuan lead the way to first transfer all the people from Bai Ze’s tribe to Iron Wall Tribe.
Then, they would go confirm the living area of the wild horse herds on the grassland.
Luo Ji had already begun preparing to establish a fourth sub-city on the grassland, and then he would set up horse farms and develop animal husbandry!
After all, with a cavalry unit in hand, the efficiency and speed of mutual support between the main city and sub-cities would be several times faster.
Later, after stirrups and saddles and other horse gear were made, cavalry speed could become even faster.
From Mirror Tribe to Iron Wall Tribe, a three-day journey on foot, and a cavalry unit could cover in half a day with a fast gallop!
What was there to be afraid of then?
