Chapter 199: The Sky Is Dead

Lu Shuang came to King Kong City, as the strongest defensive city in the territory, and also the gateway to Flying Sky City, no matter what, there is no room for error.

Thinking of the agreement with Tianyu during the offline period, Lu Shuang brought 100,000 recruits to King Kong City, and with these 100,000 sixth-order soldiers, he didn't have to worry about the lack of troops whether he was defending the city or attacking out of the city. At the same time, there are several other main army corps, at that time, King Kong City will be stationed with 200,000 to 300,000 troops, Lu Shuang estimates that at least two million fifth-order soldiers, and with a large number of siege weapons to attack continuously, in order to pose a threat to King Kong City.

Because Tiesuo City and Yangguan City are not within the territory of King Kong City, they can't enjoy the attribute bonuses of fortified cities and dead guards, but the location of these two cities, Tiesuo City is in the southeast of King Kong City, and Yangguan City is almost in the east of King Kong City, and the approximate location is in the east. And these cities, including the valley where Feitian City is located, are relatively remote from the county seat, and there are basically no player forces here, if there are people from the Yellow Turban camp who come to attack these three cities in a frenzy, King Kong City naturally does not need to worry, although there are not many defenders in Iron Rope City and Yangguan City, it is much less difficult, but attacking them needs to bypass King Kong City, and it is very likely that the defenders of King Kong City will make dumplings, so Lu Shuang is also more at ease with these two cities.

In addition to the 100,000 troops and the main army that rushed over one after another, Lu Shuang also instructed the Ordnance Department and the War Reserve Department of the Ministry of Industry to prepare a lot of special materials for defending the city, such as arrows, rolling stones, wood, as well as arrows for ballistas, all kinds of equipment, etc., if anyone can get this batch of materials and sell them, they can earn more than 10,000 gold.

Now Lu Shuang still doesn't know how the player chooses the camp, he only stationed troops in King Kong City, and did not choose to take the initiative, and Lu Shuang has always believed in a truth, that is, the icing on the cake is never as good as sending charcoal in the snow, and only when the player forces in Hailing County or Guangling County are at a dead end, is the time for him to make a move.

Although the Yellow Turban Rebellion officially started two hours after the player went online, whether it was the forces of the Yellow Turban camp or the imperial court camp, it took some time to prepare and integrate the forces and resources of each county, so after the Yellow Turban Rebellion was opened, I saw players or NPCs of the Yellow Turban camp gather in a newly established territory to discuss the next plan of action. However, the imperial court camp did not take any action, it was all the player forces preparing their own territories for the defense, and they didn't care about anything else, and even the government only issued an announcement calling on all the people in the imperial court camp to kill the Yellow Turban Thieves, and there was no actual action.

In Hailing County, the player forces that are generally more confident in the strength of their territory have chosen the imperial court camp, of course, there are some exceptions, they rely on their strong forces, and they can hug the thigh of the Yellow Turban Army, and want to beat all the other forces in Hailing County in the early stage of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, so as to establish their hegemony in Hailing County. One of the most shocking things for players in Hailing County was that the Hegemony Guild, as the largest guild force, chose the Yellow Turban camp and united more than a dozen other small and medium-sized guild forces to form a Yellow Turban Army Alliance in Hailing County, which made the people of other guilds feel like they were on pins and needles.

The reason why the Yellow Turban Rebellion was so powerful in the early stage was inseparable from the support of players, more than forty percent of the casual players chose the Yellow Turban camp, while the players from the court camp and the neutral camp each accounted for thirty percent, and the number of players was disadvantaged. In addition, a large number of ordinary NPCs have become part of the Yellow Turban Army, even if many of them are first- and second-order soldiers, they can't stand the large number of people, and there is no shortage of strong troops in the Yellow Turban Army, basically every county has a powerful Yellow Turban Army. What's even more terrifying is that once a territory is destroyed, the NPCs inside will automatically join the Yellow Turban Army, and the snowball will get bigger and bigger.

In this half day, except for some small fights, there was not much fighting, but it was just like the calm before the storm, the more calm it seemed, the more violent the outbreak would be in the future.

When a burst of familiar slogans broke out in the Yellow Turban Cottage, under the leadership of the leader of the Hegemony Guild, two million Yellow Turban troops set out from the Yellow Turban Cottage and set off towards Hailing County in two ways.

The Yellow Turban Army relied on the materials looted along the way and the newly joined Yellow Turban Army, and the number of people continued to expand, and some of the territories encountered on the way, even the third-level towns, had no power to fight back under the wave of the Yellow Turbans. Some lords who got the news in advance, when they learned that their territory was on the advance route of the Yellow Turban Army, they ruthlessly moved everything in the territory that could be moved, and destroyed everything that could not be moved, and resolutely did not leave anything to the Yellow Turban Army, and finally the lord chose to destroy the territory, set off to the county seat with his subordinates and NPCs, or defected to the forces of other imperial court camps. When the Yellow Turbans arrived, there was nothing left of the ruins.

The domain can be described as infinite scenery on this road, he has not felt this way for a long time, since the repeated fiascos in front of King Kong City, he and the people who dominate the guild gradually can't raise their heads in Hailing County, and many guild members choose to leave the guild.

The Domination Guild was originally just a second-rate guild, but after the game update, many groups found them, and after the cooperation between the two sides, the Domination Guild officially became a quasi-first-class guild. The quasi-first-class guild is a force to be reckoned with no matter where it is, and there are no other super guilds or first-class guilds in Hailing County, it stands to reason that the hegemony guild should dominate in Hailing County, but as a result, some emerging forces have emerged one after another, and the speed of growth in strength is outrageous, constantly challenging the status of the hegemony guild in Hailing County, and it is only a matter of time before it is surpassed.

In the short time of choosing the faction, the domain had in-depth discussions with shareholders and the senior management of the guild, and finally voted in favor of choosing the Yellow Turban camp, so the choice of the Yellow Turban camp was not his decision alone, but the decision of the majority.

Although everyone knew that the Yellow Turban Rebellion ended in failure, Yu decided to fight hard and made enough money in the early stage of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, even if he was counterattacked by the people of the imperial court camp in the middle and late stages, as long as he could survive until the end of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he would still earn it. The system also said that after the Yellow Turban Rebellion ended, he could choose the camp again, and then he could choose back to the imperial court camp, as for the many enemies in Hailing County, it was a big deal to move to the next county for development.

In the mind of the domain, he has never given up his plan to Feitian City, at the beginning, he was ironclad that Feitian City was established by the Platinum Village Establishment Order, if he could get this Platinum Village Establishment Order, even if the entire Hegemony Guild lost it, it would be a sure profit. However, the development of Feitian City is not clear, only that King Kong City has built a tall city wall, and he only hopes that the military strength of Feitian City is not as strong as it is on the surface, so that he can capture Feitian City with the help of the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

In the evening, after capturing the last township, Domain did not destroy it, but chose to camp on the spot. When he first set off, he brought one million Yellow Turban Army, and when he set up camp for repair, he added 200,000 new ones, of which there were 700,000 Yellow Turban Army with less than fourth-order soldiers, all of whom were directly transferred after ordinary people joined the Yellow Turban camp, and they were basically cannon fodder. There are 300,000 players, 200,000 of the fourth-order strength, and 100,000 of the fifth-order strength.

And the remaining 200,000 troops can be said to be the elite of the elite, they are all NPC soldiers, half of them are cultivated by the Dominating Guild itself, and the other half are the Yellow Turban Army refreshed by the Yellow Turban camp, a total of 100,000 fifth-order soldiers, 80,000 sixth-order soldiers and 20,000 seventh-order soldiers. Of course, there is another army that is acting together, and the strength of the two sides is about the same.

It seems that the strength of the Yellow Turban camp is much greater than that of the imperial court camp, but in fact, the armies of the two Yellow Turban camps not only have to deal with the player forces in the imperial court camp, but also gnaw down the imperial court forces, so it is not good to defeat the player forces, they must capture Hailing County to be truly completed.

On the first day, the Yellow Turban Army was menacing, and the news of the destruction of several towns and villages quickly reached the ears of the people of the other guilds, which were all from the imperial court camp, and they knew that if they fought separately, they would be defeated by the Yellow Turban Army one by one. Before the county order officially speaks for action, they, the backbone of the player forces, must unite and resist the Yellow Turban Army together in order to have a chance of survival.

In Iron Blood Town, the headquarters of the Iron Blood Alliance, many lords who chose the imperial court camp gathered together to discuss their next actions, and there were several acquaintances of Lu Shuang, Smile, Lingyun, and Tianya Wufang, Tianyu and Jia Cong, as the heads of the Celestial Phenomena Guild, also attended this meeting.

The Iron Blood Alliance, where Smile is located, is second only to the Hegemony Guild in Hailing County, and even the people of the Hegemony Guild don't dare to provoke them for no reason. However, this time their territory unfortunately appeared in the path of the Yellow Turban Army, and after learning the lesson of several destroyed territories today, he called on the player forces of the other imperial factions to unite against the Yellow Turban Army.

The people who participated in this meeting were actually the forces on the offensive route of the Yellow Turban Army on this side of the domain, and the remaining player forces went to participate in the discussion of the meeting against the other Yellow Turban Army.

Because Smile and Ling Yun and others received a lot of help from Lu Shuang in the early stage of the game, although the number of their guild was not as good as the Hegemony Guild, they did not lose in terms of elite soldiers, among the soldiers they cultivated themselves, there were more than 8,000 sixth-order soldiers, and there were 2,000 seventh-order soldiers.

Although the forces present can add up to 140,000 fifth-order soldiers, 30,000 sixth-order soldiers, 6,000 seventh-order soldiers, and 300,000 fourth-order soldiers, not every force will take out all their forces to support, so they have to deduct a part of this, and the overall situation is quite grim.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't need to say much about the current situation, the people who dominate the guild with hundreds of Yellow Turban Army are advancing towards us, if nothing else, they will be able to reach Iron Blood Town the day after tomorrow, and it may be difficult to defend simply with the strength of my Iron Blood Alliance." Smile spoke on the stage.

"The ancients have clouds, lips and teeth are cold, I and the presidents and lords are the forces of Hailing County, if we don't unite and face the Yellow Turban Army approaching step by step, then the player power of the entire Hailing County court camp will be destroyed in the hands of the Yellow Turban Army, I think you are not willing to give up your efforts for more than a year."

"What President Smile said is that we are not used to the domain of the Hegemony Guild, and we will frantically attack our local Guild with a thigh, and we are here to defeat the Hegemony Guild." One president said impassionedly.

He is one of the guilds that self-destructs the territory, and it seems that a third-level town that has been in business for almost a year will give up when he says to give up, and many people can't accept it, feeling that it is too much of a loss. In fact, as long as people are still there, especially life NPCs, it is not difficult to rebuild a territory, and the money spent will not be a lot. Therefore, the presidents and lords present are very open, and the territory is not a necessity for them in a short time, and they just want to preserve their vitality and defeat the Yellow Turban Army.

The guild presidents or lords present also nodded, they also knew the truth of the cold lips and teeth, if the top iron-blooded alliance in Hailing County fell, then their own territory would not be able to escape the destruction of the Yellow Turban Army, basically the presidents and lords who attended this meeting were willing to send troops to support, and they would oppose the first army when the Yellow Turban Rebellion first opened, and they must not wait for the Yellow Turban Army to grow stronger.

"Okay, then on behalf of the Iron and Blood Alliance, on behalf of the players in the Hailing County Imperial Court camp, I would like to thank you all here." Seeing that there were still people who reached out to help in the moment of crisis, he couldn't help but be a little moved in his heart, and said, "Wait a minute, the guild chairmen or lords can send someone to the front desk to register the strength of the support, and then we will discuss the defense plan later." ”

"For the hegemony guild with the Yellow Turban Army, I don't know what countermeasures the presidents and lords have?" Said with a smile.

Since that time when the Super Guild united with most of the guilds in Hailing County to attack King Kong City, Lu Shuang had already broken off the cooperative relationship with Smile, and Smile at that time also retreated to management due to the shares of the Iron and Blood Alliance. But after the failure of this operation, the Super Guild did not put too much energy on Lu Shuang, and Smile relied on his own ability and prestige in the Iron Blood Alliance to become the president again, and made the Iron Blood Alliance the second only force in Hailing County to the Hegemony Guild.

In Smiling's mind, he has always felt that the guilds of Hailing County should unite and think about the interests of the players together, after all, whether it is their Iron Blood Alliance, or Ling Tianhui, Tianshui Pavilion, or even the newly rising Celestial Phenomenon Guild, they are all very good potential stocks, and if they strengthen cooperation or alliances, their competitiveness in the game will be greatly enhanced. However, due to various concerns and conflicts of interest, this idea has not been realized, which he regrets very much.

When the Yellow Turban Rebellion came, in order to resist the powerful Yellow Turban Army, the guilds of Hailing County must unite with the outside world, which made Smile keenly aware that perhaps the Yellow Turban Rebellion was an opportunity to integrate the power of the Hailing County Guild, as long as there was the first positive cooperation, there would always be opportunities for cooperation in the future. 2k reading web
