Chapter 217: Breaking and Standing

At the end of February of the first year of Zhongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty, less than a month after the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the prefectures and counties in various places were deeply trapped in the Yellow Turban wave, and the prefectures and counties in the hard-hit areas of the Yellow Turban Rebellion in history were ravaged by the Yellow Turban Army and were tired of defense. Even the states and counties that do not have the Yellow Turban Army, because of the players, the two sides fight each other in the county, each with its own merits.

However, in Hailing County, it is a different scene, due to Lu Shuang's strong intervention, the yellow turban camp here withdrew from the stage of history early. The Yellow Turban Army was powerless in the final battle of the county seat, and the retreating army was pursued by several legions of Lu Shuang for fifty miles, basically the only remaining Yellow Turban elite was buried in this land, and some of the remaining Yellow Turban remnants were also faced with the pursuit of the strength of other imperial court camps, so it is conceivable how those guilds who lost their territory would pursue and kill the Yellow Turban Army.

Lu Shuang's losses in this battle were not large, first of all, because the Yellow Turban Army had suffered a lot in morale and physical strength after a half-day continuous high-intensity siege, and its combat effectiveness was insufficient. Secondly, the Yellow Turban Alliance invested a lot of troops in the siege of the city, and could not withdraw well, once it was attacked by the reinforcements of Flying City, and the defenders cooperated with the attack out of the city, the Yellow Turban Army was easily chaotic and vulnerable. In addition, in the face of tens of thousands of defeated troops on their own side, Onicang could not ruthlessly order them all to be expelled, allowing them to attack the formation of the main force, and the flanks and rear troops were harassed by the Paladin Legion, and the whole army was panicked and had no intention of fighting, which led to retreating without a fight.

Of course, the most important thing is that the strength of Flying Sky City itself is strong enough, otherwise the north and south of the city will not be able to quickly defeat the Yellow Turban Army and expel the defeated army, and the Paladin Legion will not be able to successfully harass the flank and rear army of the Yellow Turban Army.

After this battle, Lu Shuang only lost less than 2,000 people, and more than half of the 2,000 people were from 100,000 sixth-order recruits, and the main army only suffered obvious casualties when pursuing the Yellow Turban elite.

As for the harvest, Lu Shuang's total points exceeded fifteen million, and the Yellow Turban Army killed in one day provided him with eight million points, plus the one million points obtained by Lu Shuang from destroying twenty Yellow Turban camp territories some time ago, and the remaining three million points, Lu Shuang had a total of twelve million points in his hands. If China opens a points leaderboard, Lu Shuang will undoubtedly win the top spot.

Among them, 200,000 third-order Yellow Turban Army were killed, 500,000 fourth-order Yellow Turban Army, and 100,000 fifth-order Yellow Turban Army, which was an important part of Lu Shuang's large number of points this time, while the number of kills of the Sixth-Order Yellow Turban Army and the Seventh-Order Yellow Turban Army were 30,000 and 15,000 respectively, which was less than the Celestial Town Guard Battle.

Because Lu Shuang only sent troops to set off in the middle and late stages of the war, at that time there were less than 1.5 million people left in the Yellow Turban Alliance, and most of the Yellow Turbans had been killed in the siege battle, so Lu Shuang couldn't get enough points even if he wanted to mix the Yellow Turbans, and he could only gnaw the most and hardest part of the Yellow Turban Army. Later, Onicang ordered the withdrawal of the army, which led to a great chaos in the formation of the entire Yellow Turban Army, and more than half of the kills were carried out in the process of chasing and suppressing the Yellow Turban Army, counting the successful escape and the pursuit of other forces, the number of 840,000 kills was already the limit of what the Flying City Legion could do.

In addition to the points, Lu Shuang also values the harvest of skill books and internal skills. Generally speaking, the explosion rate of the skill books and internal strength mental methods dropped by killing these Yellow Turban Army is much higher than that of killing the humanoid monsters in the territory, even if most of them are third- and fourth-order Yellow Turban Troops with low explosion rates, but in the face of the huge base, they still provide Lu Shuang with a lot of skill books and internal strength mental methods. However, the highest skill book dropped is only the rank corresponding to the person killed, that is, the fifth-tier soldier will drop the primary skill book at most, the seventh-order soldier will drop the advanced skill book at most, and the fifth-tier soldier will drop the primary skill book at most.

After the war, a rough count was made, a total of 80,000 primary skill books, 5,000 intermediate skill books and 1,500 advanced skill books were harvested.

And the drop of the internal strength heart method is a bit shabby, several legions of people turned over the battlefield, only to find 7,000 beginner and intermediate internal strength heart methods, 200 advanced internal strength heart methods, and 30 special internal strength heart methods, you must know that this is the drop of more than 800,000 soldiers and hundreds of generals.

The law of the fall of the internal strength mind method is that all combat units that have learned the internal strength heart method have the largest drop rate, and it is the highest level, for example, the special military general will cultivate the internal strength to the advanced internal strength, then the high-level internal strength will generally be dropped, and the junior and intermediate mental methods will rarely be dropped and the special internal strength will not be dropped. If it is a combat unit that has not learned the internal strength method, the soldier only has a 1% chance of dropping the primary internal strength, and the military general has a 10% chance of dropping the junior and intermediate internal strength method. However, they all have a rule, that is, the higher the rank, the greater the chance of dropping, and the higher the level of the skill book or internal skill method dropped.

As for the equipment dropped by the Yellow Turban Army, even most of the Yellow Turban Army uses the lowest level of equipment, even the elite equipment of the Yellow Turban is not much better, and when fighting against the Flying City Legion, the equipment used by the Yellow Turban Army has a great damage rate, which also leads to the fact that the Flying City Legion has a very small proportion of equipment when harvesting the spoils.

However, compared with Lu Shuang's low-level equipment, which is not rare, Lu Shuang attaches more importance to the captives this time, with 200,000 people. After the game update, Lu Shuang's recruitment skills could not recruit NPCs on a large scale as before, and could only fill this gap through other ways, of which war and colonization are two good methods. The benefits of colonization have already begun to appear, and now it coincides with the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and a group of displaced people or Yellow Turbans will inevitably be born, which are important sources of population in Lushuang's territory.

On the second day after the war, when other forces were still picking up leaks on the battlefield within a radius of hundreds of miles, Lu Shuang had already returned to King Kong City with his 180,000 legions and 200,000 prisoners of war, and I believe that it would not be long before the territory would digest these 200,000 people and transform them into the driving force for the continuous development of the territory.

In the two wars in Hailing County, Lu Shuang reaped the greatest benefits from them, not to mention some substantial gains for the time being, just because these 100,000 sixth-order recruits all reached the conditions for advancing to the seventh-order soldiers, it was enough for Lu Shuang to be happy for a while, you must know that the training grounds in the territory are not enough now, and an additional 100,000 people will be provided for training, and it is estimated that it is impossible to reach the conditions for advancing to the seventh-order without ten days and half a month. But today, within one day, the sixth-order recruits will be promoted by several levels, and when they return to the territory and advance to the seventh-order soldiers, they can be added to the twelve main legions of Flying Sky City and become a part of the main army.

However, the players of the other imperial factions are not comfortable, and with their strength, it is not easy to preserve the main strength of the territory in this catastrophe, let alone make other further plans. It is conservatively estimated that in less than a month of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, at least 80% of the player forces in the court camp of Hailing County have suffered varying degrees of blows, and some player forces have even been almost uprooted.

Those players who have the support of a consortium or a corporation can survive this winter, and the game studio or small guild basically has no place to turn over, either disband all the personnel, or take the remaining players to join the big guild, there is no other better choice.

The player power of the Yellow Turban camp is even worse, first they were destroyed by Lu Shuang's territory, and they lost the decisive battle after the last battle, losing the Yellow Turban elite, they have now become the street rats that everyone shouts and beats in Hailing County, and since then Hailing County has no place for their Yellow Turban camp.

If there is anything that makes these player forces feel gratified, there is no doubt that the imperial court power of Hailing County has been seriously weakened by the Yellow Turban camp, and the county order originally controlled hundreds of system towns and villages in the county, but there was not one in ten in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and even if it was rebuilt after the war, it would be difficult to return to the previous level. The reduced population, in addition to some of the Yellow Turbans killed or captured, more indirectly became the newly refreshed outcasts of the player forces, and the skills they comprehended were more advanced than those cultivated by the player forces themselves, and some extremely rare high-level special talents can now also appear in the territory of the player forces through this flow.

So the Yellow Turban Rebellion may seem like a sabotage, but in fact, for the player, the height of the break and stand is even higher than when they worked hard to build their territory in the past. And players enjoy several times the experience bonus, although there are many players who have died in battle, and even many have died in succession, but their level has risen instead of falling, which is beyond most people's expectations.

For Lu Shuang, the weakening of the county government's strength will definitely have the strong rise of Feitian City in the future. Although the county seat has been saved, its vitality has been greatly damaged, and it is unable to pursue the remnants of the Yellow Turbans, and as for the forces of other players, they are also unreliable, and in the end they can only rely on Lu Shuang to clean up the mess. For those who have already eaten meat, you can also use the meat residue in the soup base, which is tantamount to strengthening it.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion had only lasted less than a month, and Lu Shuang had set his sights on the next few counties while chasing down the remnants of the army and repairing the corps. They may not have as many Yellow Turban troops in Hailing County, but the situation is still not optimistic, as General Lu Shuangbi, it is natural to go to the rescue, I believe that the county government also hopes that Lu Shuang can help and solve the problem of the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the county as soon as possible.
