() "Unfortunately, the grain depot outside the city was attacked by the rebels. One hundred stones of grain and grass in the grain depot were looted." A soldier hurriedly ran into the city tower.
"What?" Fan Chou shouted in shock. The food shortage in Xiliang is determined by market prices. One hundred stones of grain and grass may not seem like much, but in fact, with a little saving, it can feed all the ten thousand residents of Xiaochi County for ten days. This is
Being robbed at once will inevitably cause food prices to fluctuate in Xiaochi County and make people panic.
As one of Dong Zhuo's most important bases in Xiliang, if it is not developed well, it will inevitably affect his future, which is enough to give Fan Chou a headache.
"Where is the commander of the North City Gate now? I'm going to kill him." After being shocked, Fan Chou became angry. The conclusion he had just made was overturned by the soldier's announcement. It was like a slap in the face.
What's more important is that Dong Zhuo's second son-in-law, Li Ru, is still here. It would be terrible if he gave him the impression of being brave and foolhardy, so he quickly shifted his attention and put the blame on the chief of the North City Gate.
"Reporting to the County Magistrate, the Beichengmen Village Chief first went to chase the first group of rebels who attacked the grain depot. Unexpectedly, the first group of rebels walked around the grain depot and fled. Then the Beichengmen Village Chief picked up
When I received the news that the city gate was attacked by the second group of Di, I quickly returned to the defense, but halfway I heard the news that the grain depot was attacked by the first group. I chased after them and found that the first group of rebels was not far away, so I continued the pursuit.
, but during the pursuit, I heard the news that the grain depot was attacked by a second group of rebels..."
After the soldier who reported the news finished speaking in one breath, he wiped his sweat and said: "This is all I know. Now the commander of the North City Gate is dealing with two groups of horse thieves. Let me ask the county magistrate to send troops for support."
"This piece of trash was played around by two groups of rebels." Fan Chou was furious and his veins bulged. Zhengyu ordered someone to send people to support the commander of Beichengmen in pursuing Qin Xiaobai, but Li Ru stopped him.
"The Black Wind Bandits are located in the north of Xiaochi County. Therefore, many weapons and horses in Xiaochi County are stationed at the north gate. The north gate is empty of horses.
There are not many horses in the city. If we want to pursue again, we must send out soldiers and horses within three sticks of incense, and at most a hundred horses."
"Qin Xiaobai must have a backup plan if he dares to do this. He has an accurate map of Xiaochi County in his hand. There are several places where he can set up ambushes on the way to Heifeng Mountain. There are no generals available in the city. If he sends more troops, he can only increase the number of troops.
casualties."
Either the soldiers and horses of Xiliang are all cavalry. The soldiers and horses led by people like Qin Xiaobai are all cavalry. There are only a few, because even rogue horses are extremely expensive. One hundred rogue horses are one hundred thousand yuan, and one thousand are cavalry.
Millions of dollars.
Qin Xiaobai was able to upgrade all the town soldiers into cavalry, firstly because he had few soldiers, and secondly, because he monopolized the market economy of the novice town and was able to do so with the support of 25,000 players. Other NPC towns could do this.
Now I can have part of the cavalry.
Li Ru had an indifferent temperament. After stopping Fan Chou, he finished his words slowly and unhurriedly.
He knew that Fan Chong just wanted to save face, he just wanted to defeat Qin Xiaobai's army and take back the plundered materials. Qin Xiaobai's death would not only hinder the overall situation, but also waste Niu Fu's efforts. Fan Chong should be
Know how to measure.
And if Fan Chou attacks in person, it will be even more embarrassing if he cannot kill Qin Xiaobai, who is only at level 20. He will not do this.
Li Ru knows how to control people's hearts. He knows that if he doesn't let out Fan Chou's words and stops him forcefully, it will not only make him hate Qin Xiaobai, hinder future cooperation, but also create a gap between him and Fan Chou.
, civil and military disharmony has been the path to defeat throughout the ages.
Then he added: "But there is nothing we can do. The players have four villages in the north of the city. All they need to do is issue a countywide announcement to inform them that Qin Xiaobai is heading north. The players will definitely come to terms with Magistrate Fan.
"
"Second Young Master's plan impressed Chou so much. There were thousands of players in the four villages, enough to kill Qin Xiaobai until he was defeated. He severely wiped away his energy and pride, and asked him to do a good job in the future.
Responsibilities." Fan Chou saw a plan that could vent his anger and take the overall situation into consideration. He was very happy and quickly flattered Li Ru and ordered someone to issue a county-wide announcement.
Li Ru smiled slightly, but he did not think that Qin Xiaobai would be defeated by the players. The terrain of Xiaochi County was at his disposal. As long as he abandoned the baggage and used the maneuvering speed of the cavalry, he could easily break through the player's blockade.
It's just that Li Ru did this, but it was not without the intention of testing Qin Xiaobai. If Qin Xiaobai really did this to get rid of the player, then he could only be regarded as a usable person, but that's all, and he could not take on a big responsibility.
Speaking of which, he didn't care much about the person Niu Fu was interested in. Now Qin Xiaobai dared to surprise Xiaochi County in such a crisis situation. This courage was enough for him to take Qin Xiaobai seriously.
Bai took it seriously, so he was somewhat looking forward to how Qin Xiaobai would break through the player blockade.
On the grassland north of Xiaochi County.
Qin Xiaobai had already reunited with the three young girls of the Qin family. He activated the Fubo riding technique, led the cavalry to gallop quickly, and took advantage of the geographical advantages to escape the pursuit of the North City Gate commander and join the three Qin family members.
The fifty town cavalry led by the generals gathered together.
But they always carried a hundred stones of food and grass, and a hundred pieces of heavy weapons and equipment. Their speed was not as fast as the cavalry of the North City Gate Commander, so Qin Xiaobai led everyone to ambush in a slope area, preparing to ambush the North City Gate Commander.
, but after waiting for a long time, no one was seen.
Just when he was confused, a county-wide announcement suddenly came from the system. Qin Xiaobai was shocked. He didn't expect that Xiaochi County would use this trick to take advantage of its players, so he immediately opened the map to check it. After a few minutes,
With the countermeasures in mind, let everyone mount their horses and follow him to continue heading north in a straight line.
Qin Xiaobai's strategy of continuing to head straight north was quite unexpected, knowing that there were tigers in the mountains and heading towards Hu Mountain. However, the three members of the Qin family were not surprised at all this time and directly obeyed Qin Xiaobai's military orders and mounted their horses to follow.
They didn't know Qin Xiaobai at first, but even if it was because Qin Xiaobai could eat enough to avoid starving to death, and was given a name by Qin Xiaobai and treated them like his own brothers and sisters, they were just grateful in their hearts and felt sorry for Qin Xiaobai.
White military power is not trusted.
However, after Qin Xiaobai's long-distance attack on Gaoyang Village, he unexpectedly succeeded in attacking the north gate of Xiaochi County. They also followed Qin Xiaobai's tactics and successfully attacked the grain depot. They carried one stone per ride and looted fifty items.
Stone grain grass.
Then Qin Xiaobai, after looting the North City Gate, attacked the grain depot again, looted the remaining fifty stones of grain and grass, got rid of the North City Gate garrison commander, and joined them.
After Qin Xiaobai's series of miraculous tactics, they were all conquered by Qin Xiaobai's military ability, and even worshiped him. They would not obey Qin Xiaobai's military orders no matter how unbelievable they were.
Anyone who doubts its feasibility will carry out military orders in accordance with the command.
Of course, the three of them did not know that the sheepskin map Qin Xiaobai held in his hand was an accurate map of Xiaochi County, nor did they know that there were some deliberate attempts to release water in Xiaochi County...
Qin Xiaobai led the town cavalry in a straight line heading north. The map showed three roads: plains to the east, mountains to the north, and rivers to the west.
The rivers to the west are not wide, but they are numerous and criss-crossed. Sand and mud are indispensable. Generally, the cavalry only slows down, but Qin Xiaobai's 'heavy' cavalry, which carries a lot of baggage, will fall into the mud and sand.
It's hard to get out of the middle.
The plains to the east are open and conducive to cavalry marching. However, after hearing the news that Qin Xiaobai defeated Gaoyang Village, they should have already assembled and even set off to the east. If they heard the announcement from the whole county at this time, they would definitely be there.
Being the closest to them, Qin Xiaobai is most likely to take the road that blocks him, which is not advisable.
The rest is the mountain road. In fact, it is not feasible to walk on the mountain road, because the mountain road is too steep and the horses are heavy, making it difficult to walk on the mountain road. Moreover, walking on the mountain road will immediately lose the advantage of the cavalry, and even the horse baggage becomes a burden.
.
Moreover, the mountain road is extremely long and narrow, which is perfect for an ambush. Once someone blocks it, death is almost certain. No one believes that Qin Xiaobai will take this road, but he will do the opposite.
No one believes that he can walk, so no one will stop him. The mountain road is difficult to travel, but the distance to the north branch line to Black Wind Mountain is more than doubled. In fact, whether you slowly walk on the sand road from the west or from the
If you go east and force yourself to be surrounded by players, it will only take you more than two hours to reach Black Wind Mountain.
Of course, on the premise that you can still walk through the sand and pass through the players, if you take the mountain road north, it only takes an hour to cross the mountain road. There is a vast plain behind the mountain road, and you can reach Black Wind Mountain in half an hour.
Therefore, regardless of time or reality, going north is the best choice.
