51. Retrospect, Outlook, Premonition of the Great War
As one of the highest-ranking officers of the Crusade Army, Cheng Peng was naturally able to get the battle reports of each battlefield as soon as possible. While he was fighting in various places, he continued to rescue those in relatively close battles and defeated as many players of the Demon King's Army as possible.
Pay close attention to the direction of the battle.
What concerned him the most was naturally the escort and pursuit battles surrounding those military generals whose positions were opposite to those of one camp and who attempted to flee and switch to another camp.
After the camp was decided, two teams from the Three Kingdoms and the Warring States Period each broke away from their own camp and ran towards the other camp's sphere of influence. On the Warring States side were Uesugi Kenshin's Army and Toyotomi Hideyoshi's Army, while on the Three Kingdoms side were Cao Cao's Army and
Dong Zhuo's Army.
Uesugi Kenshin is a righteous man who upholds justice. Naturally, he is not on the right side of the Demon King's army, so his departure is natural. It is said that Toyotomi Hideyoshi's departure was not due to a conflict of ideas, but because he accepted the appointment of Oda Nobunaga, his loyal master.
command.
"I really don't know what that 'Saturday Demon King' was thinking, actually letting Toyotomi Hideyoshi leave?" When he got the news, Cheng Peng couldn't help but be a little surprised - Toyotomi Hideyoshi was not a subordinate like Uesugi Kenshin.
A quasi-bare commander with an average combat power of no more than five, and more than ten special generals under his command, he is a combat force that cannot be underestimated! Oda Nobunaga didn't know which muscle in his head went in the wrong direction, but he didn't keep it
This loyal monkey cheered for him, but instead let him become his enemy... Regarding this bizarre decision, Cheng Peng could only explain it by saying, "Sure enough, madmen can't use common sense to reason."
However, no matter what Oda Nobunaga's plan was, it turned out to be in vain - after learning that Uesugi Kenshin and Toyotomi Hideyoshi had fled with a large number of troops, he was appointed by Demon King Toro Tomo to replace him in commanding the entire country if necessary.
The acting commander of the Demon King's Army, Suishang, Emperor Xin of King Zhou, sneered a few times, ignored the advice of his beloved general Wen Zhong, and sent his subordinates Fei Lian and Eilai to pursue the weak general Uesugi Kenshin, while he personally led the army to pursue and kill him.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi.
That battle was earth-shattering. Toyotomi Hideyoshi and the players who supported him repelled three waves of pursuit by Shen Gongbao, Sanmei and Wen Zhong, and finally ushered in Emperor Xin himself.
At that time, Emperor Xin was so alone, wearing a white toga that looked like casual clothes, with his long hair neatly trimmed, standing casually in front of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's army.
"The result is that Toyotomi Hideyoshi and others were all thrown into the street, and no one survived." Yue Yi sighed and sent a video to Cheng Peng, "This was recorded by a player at that time. A clear video has not been found yet.
.”
The video is slightly blurry, probably because the player's video recording skills are not very good. But it can still be clearly seen that there is only one person blocking the advance of the army.
I don’t know what the man said, but the sky suddenly changed color, like a huge fire cloud that covered the sky with a red bird, completely covering the top of my head, and then countless burning fireballs rained down like raindrops...
"...What star rating does this guy have?" Cheng Peng was speechless three times and then asked.
"I don't know, but I think it might be an eight-star star - the same level as Yuanlu Zhi!" Yue Yi sighed, "A Yuanlu Zhi is already a headache, but why does King Zhou of Shang appear again?"
Ah! This is simply a foul!"
Compared with the super combat power of King Zhou of Shang, the news that Cao Cao failed to escape and Dong Zhuo succeeded is not worth paying attention to - because of the evolution of the plot world, these two people originally had no sense of belonging to the Dynasty Warriors, and
They are all bad guys whose moral values are basically equal to zero, so their escape was basically expected by everyone.
Players from the Dynasty Warriors camp, headed by the Gun Guild, gathered almost half of the troops in the entire stronghold to encircle and suppress Cao Cao, successfully strangling his troops within the scope of the crusade, even though the Warring States Warriors came from there.
Many reinforcements failed to break through the siege.
On the other side, Dong Zhuo had been surrounded by the Yellow Turban Legion led by Gou Debai and He Ming, and was about to be strangled. Unexpectedly, there was an expert on the side of Wushuang in the Warring States Period, who actually used the earth escape technique to kill the fat villain.
Got rescued!
This is also because the Yellow Turban Warlock Army is busy doing other things in the Gensokyo world under the leadership of Wei Ye, and it is too late to arrive in time. Otherwise, with the cooperation of the Warlock Brigade, it is absolutely impossible for those ninjas to stage a rescue operation in the chaos.
Human magic tricks!
In the past three days, the most important battle had roughly the result like this.
After reading the battle report, Cheng Peng did not express much emotion, but looked to the future.
These three days of fighting are just an appetizer, the real fierce battle is yet to come!
The Demon King's Army and the Crusade Army are both large-scale forces.
The Three Kingdoms Warriors camp has about 6,000 permanent players in its stronghold; the Warring States Warriors camp has slightly fewer permanent players, with about 5,000 players.
Six thousand and five thousand people are not a large number in the "Adventure" game world with hundreds of millions of players, but you must know that the bloody battlefield is only a part of "Adventure", and most of them
The place where players are active is not this chaotic world filled with all kinds of monsters and PKs, but the countless plot worlds.
Most of the players who come from the two worlds of Dynasty Warriors and Warring States Warriors are also involved in the plot world. Under normal circumstances, they will not come to the bloody battlefield at all. However, this does not mean that they have forgotten their origins, and it does not mean that they have forgotten their origins.
This means that they will not come back when the camp they came from needs their power.
In fact, when the melee plot started, they rushed back from various worlds after getting the news!
However, compared to these players, the number of players from other worlds is even larger.
"Guan Gong vs. Qin Qiong" has always been one of the most popular dramas for players, and the generous rewards of the melee plot will make those who have been coveting some special prizes on the bloody battle battlefield but can't bear the patience to slowly accumulate reputation points
The players were overjoyed and flocked to the game.
But... "Profit-seeking" players often wait until the first large-scale confrontation between the two sides before they choose the side they think has a better chance of winning. Because their goal is to pursue profits, they naturally want to stand on the side of the other side.
On the side of the winner, only in this way can greater benefits be obtained.
Players from other worlds who came to join the war in the early stages of the game were basically those who had a special love for the Three Kingdoms or the Warring States Period, or had friends in a certain camp, so they came to help.
A fence has three stakes, and a hero has three gangs. When people are in the world, it is inevitable to make friends and enemies. Often a player has several good friends. For these friends, they can fight monsters wherever they go.
It's a fight, why not go to the bloody battlefield to help your friends hold up the scene?
Of course, it is not uncommon for enemies in a certain camp to come specifically to cause trouble and retaliate...
Just half an hour after the start of the melee, there were tens of thousands more people in the strongholds of both sides. After the three days of preliminary battles, the Crusade Army already had nearly 100,000 players, while the Demon King Army had
There were about 80,000 people in Bian.
The huge confrontation between the two sides, totaling 180,000 people, attracted the attention of almost all players in the entire game. According to the estimates of some analysts on the forum - such as Data Emperor Aotuman - the final battle may turn into
A super battle involving more than 500,000 people!
A battle involving half a million people!
When knowing this number, no one can help but be moved.
War of this level rarely happens even in reality, let alone in the virtual world. And this is not a war in which one side's millions of troops crush the other side, but a decisive battle in which the strength of the two sides is not much different! History
All wars in the world in which the military strength of both sides reach this level are all so famous that they have been passed down through the ages and remembered by all generations.
Players were born in a peaceful era and have basically never experienced war. Even if some of them grew up in war-torn areas, they have only seen "big battles" with a maximum of a thousand people. They have never seen a battle with tens of thousands of people.
, a total battle of 500,000 people, with both sides exceeding 200,000 people? The last time a battle of this level was staged in human history was in the fifth battle of the Korean War half a century ago. At that time, both sides participated in the battle.
A total of more than one million troops were dispatched, fighting with blood and fire in the ice and snow, and a total of more than 170,000 people were lost. This number horrified many later generations of scholars. When Cheng Peng was in school, he was fortunate enough to study with a specialist.
The paper written by an old professor who studies the history of modern war is specifically about this battle. I feel that the words are filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke and blood. Through the ink words, I can glimpse the roaring battlefield of steel, and look up at the battlefield that is more powerful than steel.
The strong and unyielding people - they are a group of poor people with backward weapons, equipment and even combat concepts. They use all their courage and strength to face an enemy that is unimaginably powerful, and finally repel it, making it sadly admit defeat.
legendary story!
And now, not long after, in the bloody battlefield, a battle with more people and more brutality than that battle is about to begin!
"In fact, during the final battle, there may be millions or even tens of millions of people on the battlefield." When talking to Cheng Peng about his prospects for the decisive battle, Yue Yi said, "Those analysts on the forum forgot to
Everyone’s own troops are included..."
Cheng Peng looked at his troop cards. The troop with the smallest number was the shapeshifters, with twenty-six people, such as centaurs or engineers, which had already reached the upper limit of fifty. It is said that some players specialize in battle formations.
The mission has been passed and the upper limit of the military strength of the soldier card has been increased to one hundred people.
After imagining half a million players releasing their own troops, plus the armies of NPC generals, and the overwhelming army fighting in a mighty manner, Cheng Peng couldn't help but get excited.
It's great to be able to experience such a battle once in your life!

Well, this is today’s update~
By the way, I wonder if the identity of King Zhou is beyond everyone’s expectations?
