The neutral zone east of the Storm Empire! Dongtian City!
This is the time of day when the number of gamers online is at its lowest.
Most of the players are still in dreamland at this time, and those who stay in the game are those night owls who are used to staying up all night.
On the tall city wall, the city lord of Dongtian City, Hongyun, and his subordinates looked excitedly at the neat formation of cavalry in the square.
About two months ago, the Kangtian family broke through the NPC guards in Dongtian City and occupied this small border town at the time.
As a core member of the family, ‘Hongyun’ was appointed by the Kangtian family as the manager of this small town because of his outstanding performance in the siege battle and his long-term excellent commanding ability.
Although this is just a game, the economic benefits brought by a city are still quite amazing.
Dongtian City is located in a vast neutral area, surrounded by large forests and mineral resources, as well as many high-level leveling locations. It can be said that it is a city that is quite suitable for construction and development. Therefore, the Kangtian family not only dispatched 'Red Cloud'
In addition, a full 20,000 garrison troops were deployed as the city's garrison force.
Two months can be said to be long or continuous. During this period of time, 'Hongyun' has demonstrated amazing internal affairs construction capabilities, developing and upgrading this originally dilapidated border town into a four-star city.
The so-called four-star city means that the city has developed into an independent kingdom that is self-sufficient.
Today, Dongtian City has been built: an auction house, four commercial streets, four barracks, 40,000 civilian houses, four war factories, four mines, four lumberyards, four pharmaceutical refineries, and four pastures.
Four large farms, and these infrastructures have been upgraded to four-star level
With these infrastructures, Dongtian City can accommodate an NPC army of 40,000 people
And the scale level is still increasing.
The strong defensive force, stable leveling environment, rich product resources, and free trade commercial streets attract a large number of players from all over the world.
There are many people who are willing to spend money in the game, and the large influx of these players has also driven the economic development of the city.
If everything develops normally and nothing unexpected happens, the trade tax revenue from the commercial street alone will allow this Dongtian City to bring 10 million daily economic benefits to the Kangtian family.
It’s almost comparable to real urban development.
It can be said that as long as you own this city, it is equivalent to having an inexhaustible mountain of gold. Making money every day is no longer enough to describe its speed of making money.
In addition to a large number of economic benefits, the development of Dongtian City has also greatly improved the military strength of the Kangtian family.
For a long time, the Kangtian family has only recruited elite talents. They will not look at them without certain abilities, which also makes their personnel development have certain limitations.
Although with their strong economic strength, they can also absorb many peripheral corps as subordinate organizations, such as the King Corps or the Tiger Corps with medium strength to enhance their military strength.
But the Kangtian family has never had any plans in this regard. They have always followed the elite route since the founding of the family.
Compared with many players who are mixed with dragons and snakes, they believe more in the NPC army that absolutely obeys orders. Therefore, they have been vigorously developing the NPC army since the early days of the game.
There are a small number of elite members who lead each NPC army. This is their development and combination model.
Unlike real players, the NPC army absolutely obeys the command of the city lord. As long as the commander orders, they will execute any tactics and any fighting methods without hesitation. Perhaps an NPC soldier cannot defeat a real player when fighting alone.
of players
But when the party expands to tens of thousands, the combat effectiveness displayed by an NPC army that obeys orders and strictly obeys orders is by no means comparable to that of an army composed of the same number of players.
Of course, the premise is that the levels of this NPC army must be similar, and the equipment must be maintained at a rough level.
Another excellent commander is also essential
Because of this, the amount of money required to form an NPC army is unimaginably high.
Take the 40,000 NPC army in Dongdong Tiancheng as an example.
If you want to form an NPC army like this, you must first produce four barracks. Only in this way can you ensure the production of enough NPC warriors.
After being produced, these NPC warriors must undergo rigorous training, so there are four large training grounds.
Of course, training alone is not enough. The daily food consumption of an army of 40,000 is quite staggering. Therefore, in order to maintain the food supply of the army, four large farms must be supported. Otherwise, due to lack of food, not only will
It will demoralize NPC soldiers, and in severe cases, deserters or even mutiny may occur.
It is not enough to have sufficient training intensity. These NPC soldiers must also be equipped with corresponding equipment. Only in this way can their combat effectiveness be improved. Therefore, four war factories must be available to produce such equipment.
Even if it is a war factory, there are high and low levels. The higher the level, the higher the attributes of the standard equipment for NPC soldiers that can be produced, and the stronger the combat effectiveness of NPC soldiers.
If you want to train cavalry troops, you must also equip a certain number of large ranches
In addition, in order to ensure the continued combat ability of NPC soldiers on the battlefield, it is also necessary to ensure that each of them is equipped with a certain amount of blood replenishment and magic potions.
;;;;; The level of complexity of all this is by no means overwhelming the actual formation of a real army, and the amount of money invested is also unimaginably large.
As a time-honored traditional force, the Kangtian family is well aware that a powerful NPC army is far more reliable than a miscellaneous army composed of players.
So no matter how high the price is, they are still happy to do it
Now after two months of development, the first step of preparations for the Kangtian family has finally been completed.
Just when Hongyun was thinking
A series of avatars suddenly popped up on the communication channel
It’s the boss and the others!
There are only 8 people in the core channel of the Kangtian family
At this moment, 8 people are online at the same time
Hongyun immediately stood up straight and said respectfully: "Brother"
Other people in the channel also shouted respectfully: "Brother"
"Everyone is here." The voice from the other end of the channel was cold and calm: "Each of you will report the situation."
"yes"
Everyone responded in unison
Hongyun said in a deep voice: "Forty thousand Hongyun Iron Cavalry is a lot, and they can join the battle at any time."
"40,000 Lightning Cavalry are ready"
"4,000 Thunder Eagle Knights are ready"
"100,000 Purgatory Warriors Are Ready"
"400,000 Lingfeng warriors are ready"
"All post-production materials are ready"
There was no nonsense in the channel, everyone reported their respective situations quickly and briefly.
"Lightning tactics are officially launched" Dugu Kangtian said calmly: "Everyone in Dongtian Plain will gather within one hour."
"It's great, we can't wait." Aotian was excited: "Who is the first target?"
"Tian Shuang City of the Flying Snow Corps" Dugu Kangtian said in a deep voice
