Volume II The Age of Mountains and Seas Chapter 58 Exploration
Outside Qingcao Village, the military flag of the Tang Dynasty drooped in the sun. In the large tent in the middle of the military camp, several groups were discussing how to surrender the Xuanyuan Alliance. However, everyone's face showed a less optimistic look, looking dignified.
Talking in a low voice.
Since the beginning of the war, the initial offensive to pacify the northeast has encountered no obstacles, and five or six villages have been captured easily. However, the subsequent attack on the Xuan tribe on the side of the "Yellow River" was restrained, and then the nearby Yuan tribe
His perseverance is also amazing... What's even worse now is that the two tribes have united into the Xuanyuan Alliance. I don't know what kind of treasure the bear's Xuanyuan Sword is. It can easily break through the defense of the body and kill many people of the Tang Dynasty.
The student Hu Shi also has special defensive spells, which often makes Datang's attacks futile. The most terrible thing is that there are many strange people and strangers in the two tribes, and there are even various monsters to help... After joining forces, there is even a hint of counterattack.
sign……
Although more students were on the way to support after asking for help from Chang'an, the losses in the previous two days made everyone unhappy. More than a dozen students died in the new round of attack. As for the losses of the other side,
Everyone thinks it's just an NPC and doesn't mean much to their side.
The situation that the Tang Dynasty had been developing smoothly now encountered strong resistance. The vanguard army that attacked Abei City was easily wiped out... More than 200 people in the Gao Yiyi Division were wiped out by one person, and the expansion in the northeast was also wiped out.
It didn't go well, and unexpectedly encountered a powerful NPC village, and it was also the "ancestor" Xuanyuan Alliance... All of this made all the senior officials confused and panicked.
At present, Chang'an's student headquarters does not have any clever methods. Recruiting other players to help requires a lot of expenses. At present, Datang's financial resources can not only support its own consumption, but also cannot afford the employment costs of more than a hundred people, so this proposal has basically been rejected.
, and ordinary NPC soldiers are of no use in the current situation. The only possibility is to see if you can recruit some capable NPCs, which will cost less.
The senior leaders of Chang'an are in a very depressed mood. At present, all offensive orders in other directions have been cancelled, and they have turned to three focuses. One is Abe City in the north, the second is the Xuanyuan tribe in the northeast, and the last is the defense of Chang'an. As the "Emperor of the Tang Dynasty," Li Qiang
", all students have been asked to take their positions. Among the more than 2,800 students, there are only more than 1,800 with combat effectiveness. After the consumption since the war, especially the serious consumption outside Black Iron City, only one is left.
There are more than 1,500 people, including more than 430 people at the Yuan Shen stage and above...
There were also disputes about whether to fight on two fronts at the same time, but based on the intelligence collected, it was finally believed that the comparison between Datang and the other two parties was relatively optimistic under the current circumstances. Therefore, in addition to the 100 Yuanshen-stage masters left behind in Chang'an to guard
, and three guards in each village, the others will be assigned to two places, about 600 people on each front. Because it is not completely sure whether the masters who massacred their companions outside Black Iron City are from Abe City, so in
From Datang's perspective, the Xuanyuan Alliance was even more difficult to establish than Abei City.
The army is still gathering, and the situation on all sides is very tense. For NPCs, they also have their own ideas and freedom, as well as their own lives and dignity, so naturally they do not want to fail. For Datang, they must conquer and occupy
With more resources, it is necessary to expand and invade and rule more NPCs, so that we can have more income and afford the fees for students... However, death is also unbearable, which means that we do not know how to be reincarnated.
Which place means starting over in the game.
For Wu Qi, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Only by getting rid of the roadblock of Datang can he carve out hegemony in the Sixth District. After making up their mind, the four people have exchanged 10 million real currency through Tianqi Group, so Abei City has
One million gold coins were used as the starting capital, and the capital was shared equally among everyone, but because Wu Qi provided Abe City as the basis, Wu Qi still took the majority.
With the support of his brothers, Abe City has begun a series of actions. Wang Tian began to establish a complete governing body in Abe City and various villages, an NPC-based executive department, and a player-based formulation
Policy and advisory departments. For example, under the leadership of Wang Tian, the "Parliament" was established as a parallel organization to the "Cabinet". The nine elders of the "Cabinet" each lead a specific executive department, including the Ministry of Construction responsible for construction,
The Tax Department is responsible for tax collection, the Propaganda Department is responsible for publicity... and other departments are set up according to needs to implement the resolutions of the parliament and daily affairs. The people in charge are all NPCs, mainly because they are afraid that players will have trouble in reality.
No one works in the game anymore.
The council is composed entirely of players, but it has no real power and only serves as an advisory group. Wang Tian was afraid that he would not be able to think well on his own, so he specially recruited some players with ideas to help him, and of course they had to pay wages.
And Xiaobao also started to take action. Of course, he had to poach a lot of people from Pan Shi. He also followed Wang Tian's example and set up an "advisory group" of about ten people. Parallel to it was the "Kongkong Pavilion". Below
There are two departments, one is the "Recruitment Department", which mainly recruits good NPCs. Whether they are humans or demons, as long as they are interested in developing in the Chinese Empire, they must win over them. In fact, it all depends on whether the asking price is high. The other is "
"Naliang Department" is responsible for persuading other villages to surrender or establishing relations. This department has a close relationship with Pan Shi's army...
As for Pan Shi's side, the settings are different. They are divided into three armies: heaven, earth, and human. The heavenly army is an army mainly composed of players, the earth army is an NPC army mainly composed of twelve troops, and the human army is
Ordinary NPC soldiers... Of course, some positions and support departments have also been set up. Under the current situation, the local army is mainly relied on to do the city defense work. On the one hand, Pan Shi paid attention to talents, and on the other hand, he still let Hou Yi
Just go ahead and do it.
Elder Mingjiu is also teaching Yuanshi and Taiyi how to carry out the work of the divine religion. The two little guys are learning very quickly. This is a long-term project and there is no need to rush.
With the support of the three giants, Wu Qi, led by the disciples of Fengbu, was traveling through dozens of villages and towns in the Tang Dynasty, passing by quietly, stopping for a while to get his bearings, and quietly rushing to the next location to prepare for the upcoming event.
Preparing for the assassination...
"Master, this is Liuhe Village in the Tang Dynasty. There are some strange landscapes here." Fengbu's disciples took Wu Qi to the top of a hill and pointed to the small village next to the woods at the foot of the mountain. The village was hidden in the woods, with a
A large lake with sparkling waves under the sunlight, with many waterbirds circling above it looking for food.
"Look at what's different in this lake..." The Fengbu disciple smiled, ran and led Wu Qi to the edge of the big lake, pointed to the middle of the big lake: "This is the fairyland of mirror flowers, water and moon in Liuhe Village."
I saw the water in the middle of the big lake constantly evaporating water vapor, forming a mist in the air. In the mist, you can vaguely see little people flying around, and neatly arranged cranes flying in the air.
In a small, splendid palace, if the wind blows the mist slightly, the scenery inside will be turbulent and difficult to see clearly. But if it is calm and the mist is evenly distributed, like today, you can even clearly distinguish the wrinkles of the little fairy's clothes.
Pleated, ethereal and full of elegance.
"It's a pity that it's an illusion. The disciple once passed through the mist and didn't find anything special." The level of the Wind Department disciple has reached the early stage of the core, and he is proficient in the art of flying with the wind. Although the lake is big, the distance is not enough for him.
It's not a problem to say.
Mirages cannot last for a long time, so there must be something weird about this place. Wu Qi was also shocked by this wonder. The huge fairyland pavilions spread endlessly, and the scenery changed from time to time in the mist... It was like a fairyland, but I can only come again if I have the chance.
Find out.
"Chang'an is the largest city in the Tang Dynasty, with the best construction..." Outside Chang'an City, Fengbu disciples looked up at the city wall, unconsciously expressing their admiration. The city wall stretched for dozens of miles and was dozens of feet high.
There are many soldiers patrolling the city wall, and there are also many players on guard. However, although there are people coming and going at the city gate, there are no soldiers checking, and the inspection is useless. It is a pity that I don’t have time, otherwise I should go in and see how the city construction is going.
In this way, Chang'an should have a capacity of hundreds of thousands of people, but unfortunately I heard that it only has 10,000 or 20,000 residents.
The geography of the entire Tang Dynasty was almost inescapable under Feng Bu's deliberate exploration. Wu Qi was also eye-opening while positioning himself. There were many wonders, such as the "Thunder Cave" with lightning and thunder all year round, such as Banpo.
The "mirror cliff" in the village is as smooth as a bright mirror, but when you stand in front of it, it reflects something different... Occasionally, you encounter some strange animals, which disappear before you can see them clearly...
After running around for a while, Wu Qi was not tired, but this Fengbu disciple was a little bit unbearable. Two days had passed, and now Wu Qi had fixed points for every village, town, and village in the Xuanyuan Alliance. He could come back at any time.
Appear nearby, or even fall directly into it. This is also a special function of his heaven. Although it takes a certain amount of energy to appear here and there, it is extremely convenient.
After Wu Qi sent away the Fengbu disciples, he did not return directly to Abei City, nor did he start an assassination operation. Instead, he quietly came to the heavily guarded Black Iron City. Some ordinary soldiers were stationed outside the city, and the atmosphere in the entire city seemed abnormal.
Don’t know when the general attack will start?
After the investigation, Wu Qi quietly lurked to the place where Datang students were meeting, and heard someone saying loudly: "After so many days, what on earth are the higher-ups waiting for, and they haven't started to attack yet? Haven't they found out yet?
?”
"It's not like we haven't checked it out. It's basically certain that the master is the city lord of Abe City, so Boss Li is a little hesitant, fearing too many casualties." Another person began to speak: "But since I am responsible for this operation, I decided
The general attack will begin the day after tomorrow, and all troops will be put into it. We will send someone to confirm with Boss Li later. We will wait for his reply tomorrow and everyone will be ready. Let’s adjourn the meeting..."
"Okay, let's have a good time today!" Then it became lively. Some invited people to eat and drink, and some asked where to go shopping.
