Five thousand Yunzhou cavalry stood in a row, with swords and spears like a forest. They were led by a captain of ten thousand cavalry and stood uniformly outside the city.
Shi Lan stood on the seventh floor, overlooking the earth, with a lazy smile on her lips.
Chen Xi, wearing dark blue robes and armor, riding a fierce horse, stood in front of the Yunzhou cavalry together with Ding Jilin, and said in a deep voice, "My lord, Ke Qing, has a city in the north. There are bandits outside the city. You wait immediately."
Follow Mr. Keqing to the north, and you will be stationed in the city as long as he asks you to, and you must not disobey until Mr. Keqing asks you to return. You can come back to Yunzhou to see me!"
"Yes, sir!"
A group of Yunzhou cavalry clasped their fists and nodded.
Ding Jilin smiled happily and hugged Chen Xi, "Chen Xi, let's go then. See you later!"
"Um."
Chen Xi cupped his fists and returned the salute, "Ding Jilin, see you later!"
"Set off!"
Ding Jilin waved his sword and led five thousand Yunzhou cavalry towards Lanling City.
…
It's windy and snowy, and the weather in the north is always so bad.
Ding Jilin rode a white dragon horse and led everyone to open the big map while galloping. On the big map, there were still blood-red areas. Those were the abyss, the undead, and the monsters. They were actually refreshed for players.
It's used for leveling, it can't be said to be a main force.
As for the main force, there was originally a Qianfeng Corps stationed in Qianfeng Woodland, which was the real main force of the Abyss. Unfortunately, with the death of the fire-walker Shen Ye, this Qianfeng Corps was almost wiped out.
, so that Qianfeng Woodland has become a "territory in contention". In fact, this is a sign of the human race's counterattack, regaining the old mountains and rivers in the true sense!
Therefore, Ding Jilin led five thousand Yunzhou cavalry to go north. Although they would encounter monsters along the way, they could basically defeat them without any bloodshed. There would not be any big threat. For the abyss, the undead, and the monsters, now
The biggest threat should be Lanling City, the northernmost city of the human race. At this time, a large number of players are pouring out of Lanling City, fighting and killing everywhere, making the entire Northern Territory unstable.
"Oh shit……"
Ding Jilin frowned, shouldn't it trigger the Lanling City Defense Battle or something? But no, after the continuous battles, Xianlin and the players from all over the world are tired. Now everyone wants to take a rest and enjoy it.
, I don’t want to participate in high-intensity battles anymore.
Half an hour later, the outline of Lanling City appeared in front of us. It was located in a plain between mountains. The geographical environment extended in all directions. It was a "must-contested place for military strategists". If the three northern tribes had not conquered Lanling City, they would have
It is difficult to directly deter Sky Tower and Yunzhou.
Instead of entering the city, we went directly to the western wilderness to kill the bandit army!
"Over there!"<
br>
Ding Jilin was the first to walk in the front, pointing to a rebel camp in the distance with a total strength of only 800+ and saying, "Charge over there and kill them all. However, to minimize our own losses, it is best to shoot them from a distance."
!”
"yes!"
Wan Qichang nodded and smiled, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I understand this!"
The next moment, the Wan Cavalry Commander took out a big bow from nowhere and said in a deep voice, "Brothers, change to strong bows and crossbows, use cavalry and archery tactics, surround them and fight!"
"Yes, sir!"
A group of Yunzhou cavalry took off their bows from the side of their horses and immediately began to circle in a wide range. In the flying dust, arrow clusters flew into the air, forming a drizzle in the air and pouring towards the rebel army.
"Ahhhhhh~~~"
In the camp, the bandits stood up, and many people shouted, "The ungrateful King Lanling has sent people to destroy us. Brothers, pick up your weapons and fight with them!"
Suddenly, many thieves holding spears and wearing leather armor rushed out from the camp, but the equipment was so disparate that they were "puff-puff-puff" before they even touched the side of Yunzhou Iron Cavalry.
They were shot to death and injured, and people kept falling to the ground. Moreover, they were absolutely inferior in terms of numbers. Until finally, all that was left was a thief whose body was covered with arrows.
A Yunzhou cavalry commander swept forward, drew his sword, and drew the sword in one breath. There was a "click" and blood splashed out. The head of the thief leader flew into the air five meters high. The moment his body fell,
He is too dead to die any more.
"Ding!"
The system prompts congratulations, the annihilation of the bandit army is completed! Your Lanling City has received a total of 5000 wood x5000, 5000 stone x5000, iron ore x5000, food x5000, and a large amount of food!
…
Okay, from this point of view, the thief army is actually a good thing. They provide supplies. The more supplies, the stronger the defense capabilities of Lanling City will be. Don't rush, take your time.
The development ideas of the guild's residence are very clear. Wood yards, iron mines, and quarries outside the city must be built. These can increase the city's output. With the soaring population, militiamen must be sent out of the city to cultivate grain fields.
, after these outputs increase, start building military facilities in the city, including barracks, horse farms, shooting ranges, etc., and then recruit troops, so that Lanling City's own troops can be used to defend the city!
Moreover, Lanling City is an S-class historical city, and maybe even the recruited troops are special troops. These are things that will happen later. Don’t worry about it for now. There are 5,000 Yunzhou cavalry here, so you don’t have to worry about anything!
Ding Jilin led the Yunzhou Cavalry back to Lanling City.
"Your lord, guest."
A rather young and immature Yunzhou cavalryman laughed and said, "Can we eat meat in Lanling City?"
"certainly."
Ding Jilin said, "Lanling City is a big city, so eating meat is definitely no problem."
"Very good……"
The young cavalryman said with a face of joy, "In the military camp in Yunzhou, we can only eat meat once a month. Each time we eat meat, we only have three pieces of braised pork, no more, no less, exactly three pieces."
"..." ??
Ding Jilin frowned. The life of the people of Yunzhou was really too poor. Even so, a large amount of supplies had to be transported to the Babel Tower. It was really difficult for Chen Xi to be the leader of Yunzhou. And in this situation
Under the circumstances, the young Human Emperor Chu Feng's order to send supplies from the south to the north was blocked by local governments and nobles, both covertly and covertly. Only less than one out of ten supplies could actually be sent to the northern region.
"Don't worry, the days to come will get better and better," Ding Jilin said.
"Um!"
The young cavalryman smiled and nodded, "Everyone says that Mr. Ke Qing is a very powerful person. Since Mr. Ke Qing says so, the days to come will definitely get better and better."
Ding Jilin felt a little emotional. Since ancient times, the Yunzhou cavalry has been the best in the world, but only the people of Yunzhou know the difficulties of Yunzhou. As a player, he has also witnessed a lot, and the idea of wanting to change the world arises in his heart. Although he does
He didn't intend to establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people, or create peace for the world, but what he saw before him still wanted to change it.
…
In the city, 5,000 Yunzhou cavalry were stationed in the empty military camp. After Ding Jilin gave the order, the county magistrate immediately arranged barracks, food, etc., and various materials were given priority to these Yunzhou cavalry. As expected, everyone in the Yunzhou cavalry ate this meal.
Meat is served.
"rustle……"
Behind him, amid the sound of footsteps, Lin Xixi arrived.
She looked at the city's resources and said, "The resources are enough to build a new S-level tavern. Do you want to build one? In this way, our Xianlin players can accept tasks in the tavern. Each person can accept 23 tasks per day."
The mission, although the mission level may not be very high, but there is definitely still some oil and water, and maybe if you are lucky, you can refresh the main mission."
"OK."
Ding Jilin said, "Players' interests come first, so let's build a new tavern first. After the tavern is built, the resources will be used to upgrade lumberyards, quarries and other buildings. We must increase Lanling City's productivity as soon as possible."
."
"Um."
Lin Xixi smiled and nodded.
…
At night, Ding Jilin had nothing to do and decided to check out the conditions of the other two A-level cities.
"Whoosh!"
He first came to Tieshan City of Xuantieying Guild. This city is located on the border. Although it is far less prosperous than Lanling City, it is almost overcrowded. After all, the city's construction area is only one-third of Lanling City.
Less than.
"Hey, what a rare visitor!"
A player came forward. He was a middle-aged man in his 30s, wearing military armor and carrying a spear behind his back. He was Tie Yihan, the leader of Xuantie Camp, a very capable man. It is said that he
He once served as a soldier, so he has a faint killing aura about him, which is indeed different from ordinary players.
Looking at Ding Jilin, Tie Yihan smiled and said, "How come Captain D has time to come to our Tieshan City?"
"Take a look and learn from the experience of the guild resident."
"What a waste of time to learn..."
Tie Yihan smiled and said, "Our mere A-level guild station has nothing to learn from, but we need to learn from the advanced experience of Lanling City..."
"Study nonsense, just watch the fun!"
"Hahahahaha~~~It's indeed true!"
After the two of them walked around Tieshan City, Tie Yihan said, "Let's go and see Jiang Yan's Windy City?"
Not long after, the two appeared in the Wind Rises City.
The scale of the City of Winds is similar to that of Iron Mountain City, but the development route is different. Jiang Yan first built the teleportation array, and then began to build barracks, recruit infantry, rely on the thief soldiers to obtain resources, and rely on the thief soldier resources to improve the resource building level.
, and then build a medicine shop, a blacksmith shop, etc., focusing on "teleportation" in the early stage, and then provide various services.
The idea is correct. This will increase productivity in a short period of time, increase military strength to a certain level, and then develop steadily.
After looking around, they learned some superficial experience. Ding Jilin and Tie Hanyi both looked like they had benefited a lot. It was right to look more. As a city lord, you must look more and learn more.
After walking around, I didn't see Jiang Yan.
Ding Jilin felt a little relieved. It would be better if he didn't see her. If he did, he might be a little embarrassed. He wouldn't know what to say to her. If he said too much, he would feel that he owed her a lot. It wouldn't be good if he didn't say a word.
But the next second, when he was passing by the City Lord's Mansion, he turned around and saw a pretty girl standing in front of him. Ding Jilin couldn't help but froze.
"Why are you here?"
Jiang Yan was also stunned.
"Ah I……"
Tie Yihan thought he was talking about him, and suddenly his whole face was filled with embarrassment, "I...I..."
