Chapter 148: Emergency Announcement
"The general's surname is Cheng, and his name is Hui, I don't know what the mayor is looking for me?" Cheng Hui asked.
"Hehe, hello General Cheng, we came to visit, in fact, we want to see the general's lordship, I wonder if you can recommend it?" Tianhuo Lei Yan smiled.
In fact, as far as the strength of this heavy cavalry led by Cheng Hui is concerned, it has greatly exceeded the estimated range of Tianhuo Lei Yan, if there is to fight, even if the people of the entire guild go together, they may not have a chance of winning, at most they can stop the loss in time. If such a combat force has been stationed here, the NPC forces are fine, if it is the player force, it will definitely rob them of a lot of resources, which is also the reason why Tianhuo Lei Yan decided to come over in person, he wants to confirm the information of Cheng Hui.
"If it were just the mayor of the town, he would have welcomed him at any time; If you're looking for the adult, you don't have to, but the adult isn't here, and you don't see any outsiders, so please come back. Cheng Hui told lies seriously.
Tianhuo Lei Yan noticed that Cheng Hui's words were "lord" instead of "lord", under normal circumstances, NPC generals would call lord players "lord" to express loyalty, and only those with a superior-subordinate relationship would be called "lord". Of course, this may be deliberate, as the player doesn't want to reveal his identity and deliberately makes his NPCs call themselves that way in order to confuse the other party.
"Okay, let's not disturb the general's rest."
After speaking, Tianhuo Lei Yan left with his entourage, and the others on the road wondered why the president left without saying a word, and as a first-class guild, unless it was a super guild, any force would have to give some face when it met them, but just now Cheng Hui refused without saying a word, which made them angry when they usually walked sideways in Jiuyuan County.
"President, I said, why don't you give that NPC a nice look? Although someone instructed him behind the scenes, this is our territory, and if any guild wants to develop here, doesn't it all have to go through the nod of the guild leader? A female gamer said indignantly.
"Is it useful for me to nod my head?" Tianhuo Lei Yan's tone was calm, and it was more like thinking at this time.
"President, what Qing Pheasant said is right, as long as the person who comes is not a court force, the forces that want to come to Jiuyuan County to develop must at least say hello to our Lei Yan Guild, this Cheng Hui is too ignorant of people, right, why don't we do something for them secretly and openly?" A male player suggested.
"If the other party is a king-level general, being able to stand there and talk to you like this is already giving you enough face." As the president, Tianhuo Lei Yan still has a good eye for people, and he is not swayed by Yan Yu under several subordinates.
"That's it for now, don't say anything more, the one who comes is not good, but the one who comes is not simple. You two keep an eye on them these days, and it's best to find out what they're here for, and don't cause trouble if they don't infringe on our interests. During this time, it is estimated that something big will happen, and we have to gather the strength of the whole guild to fight for more points, and we don't have so much energy to deal with them. "Tianhuo Lei Yan has received some information from the government, Xianbei in the north may have signs of mobilizing troops, and it will be a good time for the guild to obtain a large number of points.
In fact, Tianhuo Lei Yan didn't say anything, even if he was willing to go to Cheng Hui's trouble, but more than 10,000 heavy cavalry made him have to weigh and weigh, and even to avoid causing conflicts.
After Tianhuo Lei Yan left, Lu Shuang was next door, so the conversation between the two could be heard clearly. Although the Lei Yan Guild is a first-class guild, and the base camp is in Jiuyuan County, Lu Shuang really doesn't take them to heart, at least he still has Wang Zhi in his cover, if something happens, Wang Zhi will definitely not let them go.
In the next few days, Lu Shuang stayed in Jiuyuan County, participating in the heavy cavalry's encirclement and suppression of the Xianbei cavalry. In his opinion, there is no problem with leaving all this matter to his subordinates to complete, but it is shallow on paper, Lu Shuang also has Danyang Qingbing under him, and it is inevitable that he will not encounter field encounters in the future, and it is only good for the army to be familiar with various battles for his own improvement, not to mention that there is no urgency in the territory, Lu Shuang only needs to be a hands-off shopkeeper.
The results of a few days were fruitful, Cheng Hui and two other king-level generals set off in three ways, and encountered dozens of Xianbei cavalry of all sizes along the way, the small ones were only hundreds of cavalry teams like Tuoba Sun, and the big ones were no less than 3,000 cavalry. But no matter what the size of the cavalry team encountered, the three-way heavy cavalry troops could quickly annihilate it, leaving not a single living mouth except for the enemy general.
Three hundred miles away from Jiuyuan County, there is a third-level system town, and the original NPC residents are much less than the third-level towns in the Central Plains, but because it happens to be in an important position, a large number of players usually gather here to rest and buy supplies, and a border town has become prosperous in a few months.
On this day, the players in the town, as usual, go online and offline, go out to farm monsters, and occasionally meet some lone Xianbei cavalry when they form a team to farm monsters, earn some points and sell them to the guild, which is equivalent to a part-time income added to a month's salary.
However, players who are used to living a stable life on the border seem to have encountered a catastrophe on this day, and Xianbei, who was originally in their north, suddenly appeared in the south of the town, and the number of them was so large that it made people's scalps tingle.
The appearance of the Xianbei cavalry caused panic, and some players who knew the strength of the Xianbei cavalry were okay, and they went to the official mansion or military camp to report as soon as possible, and even planned to slip away from other three sides. And some players who have not been in contact with the Xianbei cavalry, subconsciously think that these cavalry are not a threat to them, after all, they are in a system town, there are guards and a large number of players, and the Xianbei cavalry is also sent when they come. And the system didn't release any news of the monster attack, and the appearance of the Xianbei cavalry may have just passed by here by chance, so there are a lot of players who are ready to watch the show.
"Hey, look, aren't these the Xianbei cavalry? Didn't they live in the north, and how did they appear in the south of town? Someone was surprised.
"How did you come to be in charge of people's houses, the enemy is now, why don't you hurry up and prepare to deal with it?" A "sensible" player shouted.
"You're too worried, we're in a system town, how dare this group of Xianbei cavalry attack it, at most, they just walk around the periphery twice and leave. If they dare, we, the tens of thousands of players, plus the guards, could squirt them to death with a single spittle. The man said disapprerovingly.
"However, I heard that many villages have been destroyed by the Xianbei cavalry recently, and the other party is menacing, maybe this is the idea."
"You also said, it's a village, think about how many villages there are in a county or a town, only a dozen cavalry or even a few can be destroyed, but the system town is different, if you want to destroy it, at least..."
Just when some players were still planning to watch the play, the generals and soldiers in the town's barracks attacked almost as if they were facing a great enemy. And the players in the town have also received an urgent wartime announcement issued by the mayor, saying that the town has encountered an attack by Xianbei, and a cavalry force of more than 10,000 people has appeared in the south of the town, which is powerful and needs the help of players to fight.
This wartime announcement made the players who were originally going to watch the show stunned, saying that they would not dare to attack the town, but now they want to unite the forces of the entire town, so that the players who were still saying that they did not dare to attack the town just now slapped them in the face.
Moreover, this wartime announcement is mandatory, which means that there may not be a reward for the players who participate, but at least there will be no punishment. And if you don't participate, there will definitely be a punishment, and the more punishment depends on the publisher's will, at least you will be blacklisted.
It's also the first time that players have encountered this wartime announcement, in fact, even fools know the seriousness of the matter, otherwise the mayor of the town would not have spent money.
There is no city wall in the third-level township, only a wall, but in terms of defensive power, it is very different to meet ordinary rogues, but it is useless to encounter fifth-order soldiers like Xianbei cavalry, not to mention that this town has been expanded, and the former wall has been demolished, and it has lost the ability to resist Xianbei cavalry.
The cavalry is approaching in a blink of an eye, and the players in the town are out of the city under the leadership of the general, but the difference is one order, and the strength is still much worse, and there are thousands of players left in less than three minutes.
Although they failed to inflict substantial casualties on the Xianbei cavalry, these players bought a little time for the guards, and the NPC soldiers quickly formed a formation under the command of the general, and some players with bows and arrows, shields, and spears also joined in, no matter how much better than fighting alone.
The town's counterattack caused some casualties to the Xianbei cavalry, after all, it was almost impossible to survive an arrow on a fast horse, and even if it missed the vital point, it could be trampled to death by the robe behind him.
After the Xianbei cavalry threw down dozens of corpses, the leader was finally enraged, and with an order, the cavalry were no longer just full of brains, and some of the cavalry surrounded the two wings, and at the same time took advantage of their life in the steppe to ride and shoot.
It is obvious that most of the Xianbei cavalry are proficient in mounted archery, and the hit rate is higher than that of the same soldiers. And the difficulty of shooting moving targets is unimaginable for shooting fixed targets, most of the arrows shot by the guards and players are human strokes, and even deviate far away, while the Xianbei cavalry shoots arrows like shooting fixed targets, and the formation is chaotic for a while.
