273 Conspiracy, Wuwei City
273 Strategy, Wuwei City
In the battle of Gulangxia, the grain transport team leader Cheng Qiu was killed. Under the mediation of Zhan Xiaobai, the adjutant Pang De led 2,000 remaining troops to abandon the grain and retreat.
Tens of thousands of village players who participated in the robbery of food and grass, after losing the biggest enemy of the NPC army, began to loot more than 300 grain and supplies, food and grass and other supplies, and fell into a chaotic battle. In the end, who could grab food and grass, it was completely left to fate.
A short player was scrambling to the ground by other players while fighting for food. He cursed and wanted to get up, but was blocked by countless bodies. When he saw a baggage truck next to him, he simply got into the baggage truck to avoid it. The baggage truck was very narrow and ordinary players couldn't get in, but with his figure, he happened to be able to get in. He crawled around and saw a book and a bunch of scattered items on the ground under the car.
He quickly picked up the book, took the dust on it and looked at it: "The Deceitful Official": Official books written by Cheng Qiu, which recorded two skills such as embezzlement and tampering with accounts.
The short player couldn't help but be shocked and ecstatic.
Books are not something that can be exploded. NPCs with status such as centurion and commanders will not be released at all. Especially books such as wisdom and military books, they require advanced NPCs to be released.
Since this book belongs to Cheng Qiu, it must have been revealed after Cheng Qiu died! Who is Cheng Qiu? There are not many such famous NPCs in the whole game. Can the things that are exposed be bad?
The short player cried with joy. Unexpectedly, Xiao Gouer, who has been playing games for so many years, will have a day of luck.
Open the books immediately and learn skills.
The book disappeared, and two skills were added to Xiao Gou'er's skill bar.
He quickly flipped through other things and found a "money bag" full of hard copper strings, at least dozens of scattered. He found a copy of "Cheng Qiu's Private Account"... The baggage truck was fighting hard outside, so he didn't hurry to take a closer look, and didn't dare to stay under the baggage truck for too long. For fear that someone would have suspicious, he quickly stuffed all the scattered items into the package and drilled out of the baggage truck.
Xiao Gou'er didn't participate in the fight anymore and ran to the west of the canyon, full of pride. He thought that Xiao Gou'er had been in this game for more than a year and had not made any progress in the past year. He was an unknown person who had unexpectedly turned over. He was rich and talented, so he naturally could not stay in a small village anymore. He must find a place where he could use his "talent" to do a big fight.
Where is the right place in the world to let him Xiao Gouer do something great? Only the world's number one Xiaobai Town!
......
Geng Bi, the governor of Liangzhou, died, and the warlords of Ma Teng rose up and negotiated peace with the Qiang people, and Liangzhou changed color!
However, the chaos in Liangzhou is not just that.
After Ma Teng rose up, NPC warlords of all sizes from all over Liangzhou announced their uprisings.
"The system news in the whole China region: Ma Wan rose up and led his subordinates to announce the uprising and built his own warlord forces! Ma Wan's warlord forces officially appeared in Zhangye County, the Eastern Han Dynasty court."
Ma Wan, Zhang Heng, candidates, Cheng Yin, Cheng Yi, Li Kan, Liang Xing, Yang Qiu... The eight tribes led by thousands or even tens of thousands of NPC tribes, one after another, jumped out to seize the territory of Liangzhou!
When Zhan Xiaobai received these system messages, he did not want to stay in Gulangxia for a long time. He quickly led his troops back to Xiaobai Town 60 miles away. For ordinary players, these system messages may be just a large-scale adjustment of the NPC Liangzhou warlord forces. However, for Xiaobai Town, it means a rare opportunity, which depends on whether you can seize it.
The governor of Liangzhou had just died, and it would take at least half a month for the court to receive this news. In addition, there was no time to make adjustments in the short term. Ma Teng's army was on the front line and it was difficult for him to immediately return to Wuwei County. Most of the counties in Liangzhou were temporarily in a state of power vacuum, and the opportunity flashed.
General Zhan Xiaobai put his horse into the formation, then returned to Xiaobai Town, and sent someone to summon Qiushui, Jianba, A Fei and others to discuss the matter.
The three of them received the news and went to the conference hall one after another.
Zhan Xiaobai took a map and spread it on the table. When the three of them arrived, he said, "You have received the system news not long ago. Liangzhou has entered the most chaotic period in the history of the game. What do you think?" He did not directly say his intention.
Qiu Shui's intuition was very keen, and she was slightly surprised and said, "Brother Bai, do you want to attack Wuwei City?"
Zhan Xiaobai smiled, just looking at the map, and did not deny it.
A Fei shouted in surprise: "Attack Wuwei City? Wow, this is the biggest big deal in our town ever! I really have to fight? Then I have to prepare well. Brother, if I really fight, can I get on?"
Zhan Xiaobai said: "It depends on the situation."
Jianba was also quite excited, but he considered it much more than A Fei. It was not the result of winning Wuwei City after winning Wuwei City, but the consequences of the failure to attack Wuwei City.
He pondered for a moment and said, "The time is good to fight Wuwei City now... I'm afraid we can't get enough strength! With our current strength, we can barely control nearly 100 villages in the surrounding river area. However, if we want to capture and control a heavy city - Wuwei City, we may not have this ability. Wuwei City is the first city in the entire Wuwei County and even Liangzhou. There are many players and npc warlords who look at this land. If we can't swallow it in one breath, we will be attacked by other villages or npc warlords. We will be dragged down by Wuwei City and even endanger the safety of Xiaobai Town. So on the contrary, attacking Wuwei City may not be a good idea."
Zhan Xiaobai nodded, and he paced back and forth in the conference hall, saying, "Yes, so we need to be cautious. If the system city is easy to attack, this game will have long been the world of players. In fact, as early as the Yellow Turban Rebellion, many players had used the Yellow Turban Hands to plot ideas for the system city, but they all ended in failure. The players' strength was still much worse. Once the imperial officers and soldiers counterattacked, the players were suppressed. Judging from the current situation in Liangzhou, the activities of the Qiang rebels, Ma Teng warlords, and various warlords in the Jincheng area have cut off the connection between the court and the counties of Liangzhou. Liangzhou will be in a state of no management in the next ten years. Liangzhou is the first major state to lose control. Our main opponent in the future will not be the court, but local warlords."
He said this and paused, "There is not much time. We must take necessary military actions before the players in other villages and Ma Tengjun take action. Whether it is to fight or not, how to fight, a decision must be made tonight! Qiu Shui, immediately summon the members of the Military Affairs Department's General Office to the meeting hall. I want to see if the members of the General Office have any proposals."
"yes!"
Qiu Shui immediately went out to summon the members of the Military Office.
The military headquarters of Xiaobai Town is in charge of eighteen player corps and one NPC corps.
During the Yellow Turban Uprising, due to the need for a large number of complicated military planning, the special staff office was under the military headquarters. It was formed by Qiushui and temporarily served as the chief of the staff office. The members were all players and specially selected from each legion. There were more than 20 members, all old players in Xiaobai Town, who were mainly responsible for proposing specific military operation planning.
This group of members have participated in planning hundreds of military operations in Xiaobai Town, all of which are quite reliable players in terms of loyalty.
More than 20 members soon arrived seventeen, and the rest were not online. The players in the Staff Office vary in age, from 20 to 30 or 40 years old. They look quite experienced, and their professions are mainly "staff, military advisor, and strategist".
It was the first time that Zhan Xiaobai officially summoned a member of the Staff Office. Qiu Shui introduced him one by one, "This is Kong Ming's second, a strategist. This is..."
Zhan Xiaobai smiled and nodded while recording their names and characteristics.
All the staff players were a little excited. Although they had been in Xiaobai Town for a long time, there were not many opportunities to meet Zhan Xiaobai in person to discuss military affairs.
After Qiu Shui was introduced.
Zhan Xiaobai said: "Dear brothers from the Staff Office, it is an important task to call you up urgently. Under the current conditions, how to defeat the entire Wuwei City at the lowest cost?"
Zhan Xiaobai did not avoid this important military operation.
The players were shocked and looked at each other. Others may not know the difficulty of attacking the system city, but they, the members of the Staff Office, could not have known. The Staff Office has long known how many times they have practiced to attack Wuwei City. Attacking the system city by force is a very difficult challenge.
"Attack~Attack Wuwei City? This..."
"No, boss Xiaobai, the price of attacking Wuwei City is unimaginable! It's better to fight steadily, first control the villages of Wuwei County, and then control Wuwei City. We have deduced it many times, and it's difficult to attack Wuwei City."
"Boss Xiaobai, should you think about it again?"
Zhan Xiaobai raised his hand to stop everyone from clamoring, saying, "I don't need empty strategies, I need first-hand information. Who will tell me why you strongly oppose the attack on Wuwei City?"
Kong Ming's second hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Boss Xiaobai, Wuwei City is a large city of heavy city level. The imperial court garrisons the first city on the border of the western border and Liangzhou's military city. He stationed 20,000 heavy infantry and 10,000 heavy cavalry every day, which can withstand the siege of 150,000 heavy enemy troops for a year. However, the governor Geng Bi mobilized troops from various counties to Jincheng County to encircle and suppress the Qiang Di rebels, and took away the 12,000 heavy infantry and 80,000 heavy cavalry in Wuwei City. Cheng Qiu and Pang De transported grain, and took away another 3,000 heavy cavalry and 1,000 heavy cavalry.
There are still five thousand heavy armor and one thousand heavy cavalry left in the city. It is still in this state and has not increased its troops.
With this powerful force alone, it is more than enough to defend Wuwei City without being occupied by players. Even if we can collect a large army of 50,000 players, we will not be able to attack Wuwei City for ten days and half a month.
That's fine, but one more terrifying problem is that the speed of military replacing in Wuwei City is extremely crazy. There are three large barracks in Wuwei City, with a speed of 3,000 troops per day. If we cannot destroy the troops of Wuwei City within two days, Wuwei City can replant six thousand troops in two days, which means we will never be able to finish it. We have almost no chance to capture Wuwei City."
After Kong Ming finished speaking the second time, he retreated. What he said had clearly pointed out the biggest problem he faced. If this problem was not solved, attacking Wuwei City would become empty talk.
Zhan Xiaobai frowned.
The military camp of a system city can swap soldiers, which is a big problem. However, this does not mean that the system city can swap soldiers without any scruples. As far as he knows, there are great restrictions on swap soldiers in the system. This limit is - money.
Players spend their own money when recruiting soldiers. The government spends money from the local government treasury. If the government treasury is out of money, they cannot recruit soldiers. The same is true for recruiting soldiers in the court, but they consume money from the national treasury or the emperor's private money. Instead of scrupulous soldiers.
This is the rule of the game.
Otherwise, Geng Bi, the governor of Liangzhou, would not have to go into battle himself to destroy the Qiang and Di. He only needed to recruit soldiers without limits in the cities controlled by the imperial camp, and he could just click a general who knew a little about the troops to fight, and he could defeat the Qiang and Di rebels down.
Soldiers are very expensive, and high-end heavy armored soldiers are especially expensive. The level 70 Hu Ben Cavalry with 150 stag/cavalry in Luoyang City, with the strength of the Eastern Han Dynasty, only 3,000 cavalry was raised, and they were under the command of the Five Northern Army Schools, so they could not afford to support. Other heavy armored soldiers were not cheap either.
Therefore, the key to how many troops there are in Wuwei City to guard the city is how much money the official warehouse of Wuwei City still has. This is the secret of the government, and players have no way to know it, so naturally they cannot speculate how many troops the government can recruit.
It's difficult!
The conditions for attacking Wuwei City are not yet mature, far from mature.
Zhan Xiaobai shook his head secretly, could he just let it go? No, this world can give you a chance, but it will never give you a second chance! If you don’t take action, you will be taken away by others.
He thought for a while, looked at everyone present with a firm look.
In the hall, everyone knew that Zhan Xiaobai had made a decision, held his breath and focused, and the atmosphere was solemn.
Chapter completed!
