Julu County, Jizhou, in a remote mountain village, unlike other villages, the number of people here is obviously much larger than that of ordinary villages, and most of them are young and strong men, and it is rare to see old people and children.

This is the base of Zhang Jiao, the founder of Taiping Dao, Zhang Jiao is a middle-aged man, but he is quite tall, with a shawl and a nine-section scepter, just standing still can give you a feeling of not being angry and powerful, and at the same time, you will feel from the heart that no matter what he says, it is the truth.

"Big brother, big brother, I have good news for you." Zhang Liang is also tall and has a national face, but they are both brothers, Zhang Jiao feels like a fairy, while Zhang Liang looks like a reckless man.

"Third brother, what is the good news that makes you so anxious?" Zhang Bao was more calm, glanced at Zhang Liang, and asked.

"Big brother, second brother, didn't I go to the city to buy food as you told me a few days ago? There is no problem in buying food, but when I was in the city, I heard from the merchants from Bohai County that a caravan had transported a large number of weapons to Zhangwu City, and this batch of equipment was suitable for the use of fifth- and sixth-order soldiers, and the number was very large, as many as tens of thousands of pieces. And crucially, this is a caravan of an Inhuman force, which is not controlled by the government. Big brother, second brother, aren't we short of equipment, and now this batch of equipment is right in front of us, why not buy it all? Zhang Liang was very excited, as if he had encountered a major event in his life.

"Inhuman forces? How can an alien have the ability to make second- or third-level equipment, third brother, you don't want to be deceived by these businessmen, maybe they are accomplices, and they want to use this to increase their popularity, and deliberately deceive you in the past. Zhang Bao frowned.

"It's... Probably not. Zhang Liang was a little weak-hearted, because he had never been to Zhangwu City, so he didn't dare to pack the ticket and say that it must be true.

"Big brother, what do you think?" Zhang Bao asked Zhang Jiao, who was meditating.

Zhang Jiao opened his eyes, these were a pair of bright and clear eyes, no one believed that this was the eyes of a middle-aged man, and they didn't believe that this was Zhang Jiao, who would die of illness in a year.

"Third brother, who did you get to know about this matter?" Zhang Jiao did not deny or affirm, but asked for some details.

"It all started with a salt seller." Not long after the incident happened, Zhang Liang quickly recalled all the details of what happened, and said: "After I finished buying grain, I went to the salt seller to buy some salt, I often have business dealings with him, and when he chatted, he said that when he was buying sea salt in Zhangwu, he saw more than a dozen special transport ships parked by the dock, and the people on them were dressed as soldiers, and they were carrying goods from the ship to the dock one by one, and the salt seller was also the first time to see so many special transport ships. However, the cargo on board does not seem to be a very valuable item. So he went over and asked the little man who was more familiar, and this little official had a list of the goods on board, and he vaguely said that it was a stranger who sold weapons made of iron and fine iron, and there were tens of thousands of them, and this was the first time that the salt merchant had seen such a large transaction, and he was deeply impressed by it. ”

"A dozen special class transports?" Zhang Bao was cautious, and he was also taken aback when he heard this number, and said: "I heard that I once walked through the coastal counties, and I heard the old man over there say that the super-grade transport ship can only be built by a king-level shipbuilder, but sometimes there is not a king-level shipbuilder in a county, so the alien force actually has such strength!" ”

"Big brother, second brother, all of our Taiping Dao believers are elite people, even the forbidden army of the Han Dynasty may not be able to beat our wrestlers, not to mention the armies of those counties and counties, they are a group of weak chickens, but we also have a shortcoming, that is, we lack a weapon to take advantage of, if you take these weapons made of iron ore, you may suffer a lot when you encounter officers and soldiers." Zhang Liang knew that many of the Yellow Turban Army were weapons made of iron, and the better ones were the weapons made of iron, or the middle-level blacksmiths who followed among their followers.

"Big brother, what the third brother said is right, our Taiping Dao wrestlers and believers are all people who are not afraid of death, if that day really comes, we can not wear any armor, but we do need a sharp weapon in our hands, otherwise we can't even break the armor of the officers and soldiers, but it will be difficult to succeed." Zhang Bao also knew the pros and cons and persuaded him.

"Yes, the team, the second brother is right."

Zhang Jiao didn't agree immediately, as the founder of Taiping Dao, there was no turning back if he made a move, and if he leaked the secret halfway, I am afraid he would die even worse. Although he used many means to convince some local officials and eunuchs, such a large force has been able to affect the control of the imperial court, and it is impossible for no officials to be unvigilant, Zhang Jiao must take every step carefully.

"What the second brother and third brother said is right, the wrestlers of Taiping Dao do need a weapon that suits them, but we can't go to the Inhuman caravan to buy weapons too blatantly. It's okay for the Inhumans, there are many Strangers, and the government can't control them so much, if we are aborigines, if we buy too much, the government will be targeted, and we can't expose it too early now. Zhang Jiao worried.

Players and NPCs are treated very differently, although they are almost equal in terms of rights. High-level NPCs look down on players who have no strength and prestige, so players will have a lot of restrictions in the process of contacting high-level NPCs. However, there are some high-level NPCs that are very open, because the mainstream of players are adventure and lord professions, so their need for weapons and equipment is far greater than that of NPCs, as long as they do not buy second-level equipment from NPC blacksmiths, NPCs generally don't care too much, like players will sell weapons, and the government is turning a blind eye.

But it's different for other NPCs, it makes sense that players have such a large demand for weapons and equipment, and in addition to the officers and soldiers in the NPC, do other people want to rebel with so many weapons? Some landlords and tycoons will recruit their own private armed forces, which can be found by these governments, and their private armed forces generally do not buy too much high-end equipment, and the government can rest assured, after all, these people are inextricably linked with the government.

But if the people of Taiping Dao buy thousands or even tens of thousands of third-level weapons, the government will not do it, and there are many believers in Taiping Dao, and such a huge and uncontrollable force will be feared by those in power in any county, although it is not good to do it directly without conclusive evidence, but if so many weapons are purchased, it is estimated that the officers and soldiers of the government will come to read the water meter the next day.

Zhang Jiao's words pointed out the key point, in "The Real World", there are at least millions of believers in Taiping Dao, if everyone has a weapon, I am afraid that once a riot occurs, the war can be ignited all over the country in an instant, and then the government will not be able to suppress it, so Zhang Jiao looks very noble in front of the public, but secretly trains troops to prepare for an uprising. However, it is one thing to have a numerical advantage, the background of the peasants is indeed too low, and they can still make up by robbing the rich families with less food and clothing, and it is difficult to accept without suitable equipment.

The Yellow Turban Lux is a special type of military during the Three Kingdoms period, is the only one not listed in the eight ace armies of the senior special troops, is a powerful and fearless of death, if Zhang Jiao is present to command, whether it is Danyang Qingbing or Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, Flying Bear Soldiers, and Zhou Wolf Cavalry, etc., are afraid of three points. And even the seventh-order Yellow Turban wrestlers are fully capable of using fifth-level equipment, but the reality is that most of the Yellow Turban wrestlers are still using second-level equipment made of iron, and it is difficult to exert all their strength.

"Big brother, second brother, I have a way, maybe I can hide from the world." Zhang Liang said.

"Tell me about it." Zhang Jiao nodded.

"Inhumans are heavy on profits, after the main god changes the rules of heaven and earth this time, Inhumans may not lack money, but they are still eager for everything that can improve their strength, if we promise some benefits, I'm not afraid that no one will be willing to help us, and just let them buy on their behalf, and it's not for nothing to use their money, I believe there are many Inhuman forces will agree." Zhang Liang has a lot of contact with the outside world and knows some of the preferences of players very well.

"It's okay." Zhang Bao nodded and asked Zhang Jiao, "What do you think, eldest brother?" ”

Zhang Jiao couldn't think of a better idea for a while, let the players go to the purchase, it can indeed avoid the government's tracking, and even some players will be willing to post upside down, just to get some equipment or props that greatly improve their territory and personal strength. What's more, some items that are very precious in the eyes of the player, in Zhang Jiao's hands, can be made at any time, such as the spell writing and drawing he is now casually on the table, and a bronze-level prop will come out, for him it is just a short skill cooldown and a little internal force consumption, with his emperor-level peak warlock strength, this is nothing at all.

"Real World" doesn't have the kind of devastating skills of a super large map, and even slightly larger range skills are rare, and the player's skills are generally state-based and damage-type, and skills like firing a ball of fire or a beam of lightning are almost non-existent, but for a warlock like Zhang Jiao, these spells are transferred to the spell by his skills, and the skill power is much smaller. But even if it is not as good as his own skills, it can still cause fatal damage to units below the king level, so don't worry that no one wants to get it, but there is a limit to the number.

"Yes. Third brother, you have the most contact with strangers, so I'll leave this matter to you, remember to bring something like I gave you, you can hide your true identity. Zhang Jiao paused, and said: "These charms of mine belong to the exclusive domain of warlocks, and what the aliens want more is to effectively improve their personal strength and military strength, so don't think that having these charms can make them listen to you in everything, at most as a reward for their help, third brother, you must remember this." ”

"Yes, big brother, I will definitely keep these two points in mind."

Charms are disposable, or have a limited number of times, and if you have a bronze-level weapon, I believe it is very valuable. The charm cannot be said to be worthless, because few people in the entire Eastern Han Dynasty can make it, and it can be regarded as a killer feature at a critical moment.

After all, the believers of Taiping Dao are mainly poor Luzuo families, although there are also some handicrafts or ordinary residents who sell their family property to join in, but in general, there is no fixed territory, there is no stable income, with their current situation, they can't buy many fine iron weapons, every penny must be used carefully, otherwise Zhang Liang can go to Zhangwu City to find out.

It has been half a month since Lu Shuang came back from Ba Yi, and this batch of weapons was sent to the Jizhou region by the Tianjian Chamber of Commerce that he ordered half a month ago, and the territory is no longer more than one king-level merchant in Han Kang, so he can be dispatched on multiple lines. Although the amount of the third-level chamber of commerce's preferential transaction is only five thousand gold, the extra tax to be paid for exceeding that part is only three percentage points, compared with the huge profits, Lu Shuang didn't care so much, and directly transported some of the second- and third-level weapons that had been piled up in the warehouse for a long time to various places.

What Lu Shuang didn't expect was that the original idea of the weapons shipped to Jizhou was to hope that the player forces in Jizhou could quickly improve their strength, and wait until the Yellow Turban Rebellion a year later to put a little more pressure on the Yellow Turban Army, so that he would be much easier in the south of Xuzhou, but he didn't expect to be targeted by Zhang Jiao, and he was a bit of a stealer.

In fact, this is also because he overestimated the strength of Jizhou players, tens of thousands of weapons, even if Taiping Dao divides a part, the remaining weapons are enough for local players to digest for a long time, after all, everyone knows that Jizhou is one of the main battlefields of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and the larger guilds will not choose to shout in Jizhou, which also leads to a lack of consumption power. 2k reading web
