Wang Zhi was not comfortable being destroyed by the Xianbei cavalry, and the Xianbei forces also lost a lot of people and horses due to the joint action of Lu Shuang and Wang Zhi's subordinates. These horses were brought by them to participate in the war, and it was a great loss to exchange lives with others on other people's territory, and most of the soldiers killed in the imperial court were players, at most they lost one level and some equipment, and now the iron equipment is very cheap, and the players are not bad.

After several wars, players gradually understood why the player's main equipment was produced through life occupations, although there were also life occupations, forgers and the like in the past online games, but at that time the main source of players' equipment was monster farming. Because "Real World" is more strategic, players will encounter a lot of wars, and if there are more wars, the probability of death will be greatly increased, and if you still get equipment through monster farming, it is a bit unnecessary.

At the same time, for the sake of balance, it is set that once the player dies, all the equipment on the body will be exploded, the props will drop randomly, and the money will drop by 20%. However, players store valuable items in the system city, even if they are exploded, it is harmless, in the case of the popularity of junior blacksmiths and tailors, the price of an iron sword and leather armor is generally acceptable to players, and even players who kill more humanoids will be prepared to put weapons and armor in case of unpreparedness.

Sivir has done a good job of balancing, the level difference between players is not too large, and experience points will be added when it is below average, ensuring that players who lag behind catch up with mainstream players. Because the strength of the military general is two ranks higher than the soldier, the corresponding amount of experience will be reduced, and in layman's terms, the soldier has put in so much effort to gain these experiences, so the military general will have to put in the same effort to obtain it. For example, it takes a lot of effort for a fifth-order soldier to kill a fourth-order soldier, but for a junior general, it is almost a effortless instant kill, and it is unfair if the experience is the same.

It's just that no matter how well the balance setting is set by Sivir, it didn't count the existence of Lu Shuang, but he got it through formal channels, and the system has no right to modify it. Lu Shuang thinks that the gap between himself and other forces is not in resources and money, but in the qualifications and number of NPCs, and the Matthew effect on this qualification will only make the gap between him and other forces bigger and bigger. To give a very simple example, the soldiers in Lu Shuang's territory at least use the black iron level weapon of the ancient spear gun, which is much stronger than the standard weapon.

Although the Xianbei forces managed to grab 100,000 units of food, they lost nearly 30,000 horses, which was tantamount to a crushing defeat for an army of only more than 400,000. When they learned that this was the work of a player faction, and that they had previously annihilated many Xianbei cavalry, the leader was furious and eager to eat their flesh.

However, the Xianbei leader was afraid that if he continued to send cavalry to raid, he would also encounter this extremely mobile heavy cavalry, so he restrained a lot for a while, and only sent cavalry to wander around the border.

The next day, Wang Zhi set off with his army as promised, and the Xianbei military camp was more than 5,000 miles away from Jiuyuan City, and the cavalry could almost reach it within two days when they were on the road at full speed. When Lu Shuang was still level 0, he could walk a hundred miles during the day while walking and farming monsters, which was faster for cavalry.

The Xianbei forces received the information and reacted quickly. They are mainly cavalry, not good at fighting fortified positions, if they defend passively, they will lose their advantages, not to mention that the imperial court has siege weapons, and it is impossible for the temporary military camp to hold out for a long time. Therefore, the Xianbei forces decided to take the initiative to face the battle, whether it was a head-on battle or flank harassment, in short, they couldn't sit still, they couldn't wait for that time.

Everything is developing in the direction controlled by Lu Shuang, and on the day Wang Zhi agreed to send troops, Cheng Hui led the cavalry to set off north, bypassing the Xianbei scouts and the big camp, and came to the back of Xianbei, that is, the advance route of the transport troops.

This day is the fourth day that Lu Shuang has received the information, which means that this transport force has one day to reach the camp, and Lu Shuang must hurry up to act before the convergence, and at the same time guard against support that appears at any time.

At night, the starry sky on the prairie in the north was exceptionally bright, and Lu Shuang marched with Cheng Hui to the foot of a small hill, where the whole army repaired and did not make a fire, so as not to attract the attention of others.

Lu Shuang was involved in the whole process of this operation, and he would be responsible for every important operation until there was no reliable strategist. It's not that you don't believe in Cheng Hui, but at this time, one more person will give more consideration, which may make the plan more thoughtful. If only Cheng Hui is here, it is difficult to preside over the overall situation, and a person who has to be responsible for both operations and strategy will have the best of both worlds?

"Lord, according to the tracking of the scouts, the other party's transport force is less than a hundred miles away from us, but it is also very close to their base camp, and with the speed of the Xianbei cavalry, it may be able to support in two hours." Cheng Hui stepped forward and said.

"Two hours is enough for us to annihilate this transport force, even if we have 30,000 elite troops to escort it. Now I'm afraid that someone will come to pick us up in advance, and when we fight in the white heat, I will stab us in the back. "The battlefield is changing rapidly, and the plans made tonight may be overturned when they are actually implemented.

"But one thing is certain, the Xianbei people were forced by Wang Zhi to set off with an army of 300,000 today, and now there are no more than 100,000 people in their camp. Except for the defense of a few large battalions, there should not be too many men and horses sent. Cheng Hui said.

"I hope so."

To tell the truth, Lu Shuang did not pin his hopes on Wang Zhi or the Xianbei forces, it was his usual style to keep one hand in everything, and asked, "Is there a map around here?" ”

"Yes. Lord, do you want to? Cheng Hui guessed that Lu Shuang had other ideas.

"That's right, since we can't be sure if there is a possibility of early support, then let's just make all the preparations, it's best if there is no nature, and even if there is, it can delay for a while to buy us enough time, so we have to set up some obstacles in their way." Lu Shuang pondered.

This time, Lu Shuang brought 10,000 soldiers, including 8,000 heavy cavalry, the other 2,000 were lent to Wang Zhi, and the rest were 2,000 light cavalry, which Lu Shuang secretly brought from the territory and was not known to others.

The next day, Cheng Hui led the army to set off.

A hundred miles away, the transport troops of the Xianbei forces were advancing in an orderly manner, marching for dozens of days in a row, and they could complete the task today, and most of the transport troops could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. In fact, their transportation of grain is just a pretense, in addition to their team, there are other teams to transport grain, but they are more special, so the escort army is much stronger than the average one.

"Finally let Lao Tzu stay up to this day, these days I am frightened, I must eat and drink enough when I go back."

"Hmph, look at you can only eat and drink, grow your ambition a little, if I wait for the leader's army to break through Jiuyuan County, and grab all the livestock and grain in the past."

"Who do you say only eats and drinks? Believe it or not, I'm going to knock you to the ground right now? ”

"Come on, who's afraid of whom!"

The two transporters quarreled as they spoke, they wouldn't really do anything, but the sound of the quarrel put everyone around them at ease, dispelling the oppressive atmosphere that had been in place for many days.

"If you two quarrel again, I will throw you into the grassland to feed the wolves." A voice full of majesty came from behind them.

The two transporters were instantly stunned when they heard the voice, because the one who came was the general who led the escort army this time, and it was not a person who could lead the elite.

"Listen to Ben general, until these things are safely transported back to the camp, even if it is only a mile away, you must not relax for a moment, otherwise something will happen and you will be held accountable." The general threatened with an iron face.

Everyone dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, and they all silently returned to their positions and didn't dare to make a sound, but they were greeting his family in their hearts.

"Hmph, a bunch of scrap." The generals disdained these lowly transporters.

An adjutant general hurried to his side and said in a voice of only two people: "The general is not good, we found a cavalry in front of us, about ten miles away from here. ”

"What?" The general's heart jumped, and the last thing he wanted to encounter came, and he asked, "How many people are coming from the other party?" ”

"The scouts on the front line are estimated to be about 1,000 people, and the strength is not obvious, but the other party must be prepared, and they will charge us." Adjutant said.

"A thousand people dare to come?" The general didn't believe that the other party really only had these people, it was obviously premeditated, that is to say, maybe their situation here would be calculated, and ordered: "Pass my military order, let Tuoba Kang lead two thousand cavalry to meet the battle, be sure to stop me, it is best to annihilate them." ”

"General, do you want to send a message to the base camp and let them send troops out to pick us up?" The adjutant asked.

"No, you don't need to call for reinforcements." The general shook his head.

"But like this..."

"There's no why." The general resolutely refused, and said arrogantly: "The general now has one-third of the elite of the entire army, of which five thousand Xianbei cavalry are the elite of the elite. The other party should not only have such a small number of troops, there must be others nearby, and when they all come out, give them some color to see, how can we Da Xianbei be harassed by any cat or dog? ”

The adjutant general knew that he couldn't persuade him, and said, "The last general will give the order and let the whole army be on alert." ”

"No, just let our people know, let those useless transports know it will mess up the morale of the army." The general said.

"Yes."

The general is arrogant, but he does have arrogant capital, as he said in his words, this escort mission directly gave him 30,000 elites, of which 25,000 are sixth-order Xianbei cavalry, at least no matter which force the sixth order is put in, even if it can't be an ace force, it is definitely an elite general existence. And the remaining 5,000 cavalry are stronger than these 25,000 sixth-order cavalry in terms of combat effectiveness, because they are all seventh-order soldiers, and more importantly, they are seventh-order soldiers belonging to ordinary special arms, authentic Xianbei cavalry.

There are a lot of special classes in the game, but some of them just carry a title, and they don't have the strength of special classes. For example, in the Xiliang region, any heavy cavalry can call itself the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, but definitely not any Xiliang Iron Cavalry is a special type of troops, and it must meet harsh conditions, and only those who are transferred through special channels can become a real special class.

And as Wang Zhi said, he does have the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, but this Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry is an ordinary special army, and only the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry led by Lu Bu is a high-level special army. In the same way, Tao Qian's Danyang Qingbing is an ordinary special class, Sun Ce's is a high-level special class, and Lu Shuang has obtained the transfer authority of a high-level special class because of a special channel. In short, the conditions for the transfer of special classes are harsh, and ordinary special classes may be available to different forces, but high-level special classes are unique, and only specific historical figures can be transferred.

The general took out a token in his arms, and only a big word "Tong" was written on it, which was the gold-level prop "Unimpeded", which could greatly disguise the marching path and details of the army, and confuse the opponent's scouts. Such a prop is indeed precious, but it is only a gold-level prop, and there is still a chance that it will be detected by the scouts, not to mention that some of the scouts sent by Lu Shuang are special-grade scouts.

"Looks like this thing doesn't work very well."

The general took a look at it and threw it on the ground, this kind of prop is a disposable item, and it will be scrapped after using it once, but considering the time of marching, the duration of this type of prop is considered a long time among all props.
