Chapter 212: Pursuing the Peach Blossom Land (2-in-1)
With the successive victories of the imperial army, the Yellow Turban Army suffered a setback, and the situation quietly changed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The county government troops, which had been dormant in the city, began to move out of the county and gradually regained control of the jurisdiction. This will inevitably lead to a series of conflicts and fierce collisions with the Yellow Turban Army, which holds the actual control, and finally they will have to divide their respective spheres of influence by force.
The battle between the NPC forces of the two camps directly affected the player group, and a large number of confrontational faction missions have sprung up in various places, and players from both camps are constantly fighting for merit and rewards.
Players who are familiar with the Yellow Turban Battle know that after the Yellow Turban Army was suppressed by the imperial army, it was almost impossible to turn over. The campaign has entered the mid-stage stage and is coming to an end step by step, and if you want to reap more benefits, you must grasp the little time left.
The conquest army fought against the main force of the Yellow Turban......
The county government troops fought with the Yellow Turban base camp......
The player forces of different camps are also unwilling to be lonely, fighting with players and NPC troops......
The land of China is full of smoke.
Frequent and fierce wars inevitably affect the normal life of ordinary NPCs in the game. Some villages have been destroyed by the fighting, and people who have lost their homes have had to bring their families and bags to find new habitats. It is often seen that the NPC people who fled on the official road, and the lord players along the way have sent people to recruit these refugees to increase the population in the territory.
Some of the refugees stayed, while many more continued to move on to distant lands, hoping to get away from the war-torn land.
It's not just the war that keeps people out of their homes.
Sili, a riverside beach outside a small village.
The melon vines on this river beach are lush and green, and the vigorous vine leaves cannot completely hide the large and small melons, and the watermelons are dotted in the melon fields like chess pieces, and the green striped melon skin and leaves contrast with each other.
In the middle of the melon field, there is a melon shed.
Peigua stood in front of the melon shed, looking at the melon field that was growing well, and his eyes revealed a strong attachment and reluctance. This melon shed is his home, and Peigua has lived here for many years, and if he can, he hopes to stay here until his ultimate goal is accomplished: to marry a mother-in-law to warm the bed.
However, it now seems that he has little hope of achieving this goal in the melon shed.
Peigua had already packed his bags and was about to leave here.
He had to go.
Si Li is the location of the Son of Heaven, and the guards are strict, so Taipingdao didn't dare to make a big move in Si Li. Some time ago, for the suppression of the main force of the Yellow Turbans, most of the elite soldiers in Luoyang were sent out, and Si Li's military strength was at a low value, and some people were worried that in case the front battle failed, the Yellow Turban Army would go straight to Si Li, who would be able to resist. After the news of Zhu Jun's defeat by Bo Cai broke, similar fears reached a peak.
The wealthy families are mobilizing, and if necessary, they may have to send private troops to defend against the "moth thieves".
Sending troops to help the imperial court may not prove how loyal they are to the imperial court, after all, for the rich families, the Yellow Turban Army will definitely not be able to pee in the same pot with them. The Han Dynasty will not fall, they can keep their vested interests, if the group of mud-legged people of the Yellow Turban counterattack the upper position, most of the rich families will have a hard time.
With the burning of Changshe, the killing of Zhang Mancheng, and the great victory of Lu Zhi in the north, no one is worried about Si Li's attack by the Yellow Turban. After the imperial court gained dominance of the battlefield, it finally had the spare energy to do some things that had time to be done in the early stage.
For example, find out the Yellow Turban henchmen lurking in the area and liquidate them.
Peigua's nephew is a leader of Taiping Dao, and is a registered disciple of Zhang Jiao, and he is also a well-ranked figure among the Sili Yellow Turban personnel, as early as soon after Tang Zhou's informant, Peigua's nephew was on the list of arrests, but fortunately he received the news and escaped in time, and he did not know where to go.
Peigua has a direct blood relationship with the leader of Pei, so he has naturally become the object of suspicion.
Fortunately, the locals know that Peigua is honest and timid, so it is enough to ask him a few words. But what should come will come eventually, and some Taiping believers who were arrested were tortured but confessed that they had received a sermon in a melon shed, and the preacher was the leader of Pei, and the owner of the melon shed was the uncle of the leader of Pei......
The lieutenant secretly ran to ventilate and tell him to leave immediately.
"Some of the Taiping Dao followers who were arrested were killed without trial, and some of them were tortured alive and tortured...... Pei Er, you and I grew up together, I can't bear to see you encounter disaster, the person who arrested you will arrive soon, you go! The farther away the better! ”
Lieutenant's words kept swirling in Peigua's head, and he knew he couldn't stay here any longer.
With a long sigh, Peigua packed his bags and quietly walked away along the river.
He soon encountered a group of fleeing civilians, and Pegua simply blended into the ranks of refugees.
The team was heading westward, preparing to go to Yizhou, and the old man who took the lead said that the yellow scarves in the north and east were making a lot of noise, and Jingzhou in the south was also fighting, so they could only go west, either to Liangzhou or Yizhou. In the bitter cold land of Liangzhou, Yizhou is rich in products, has a pleasant climate, and the economy is more prosperous, so go to Yizhou.
Peigua fled in panic and didn't know where to go, but after listening to the old man's reasoning, he went with him.
Like the villagers in this team, there are many people who have lost their homes.
Jingzhou, Wuling County.
A systematic village was destroyed by war, the village was full of ruins, the fire of a house was not extinguished, the fire gradually spread, and occasionally crows crowed in the treetops, as if to lament the decay of the village.
Two players passed by nearby, and when they saw this scene, they also had some feelings.
"Jingzhou Yellow Turbans are mainly in Nanyang County in the north, and Wuling County belongs to Jingnan, not the hardest hit area of the Yellow Turbans, so why can it be so withered." One player sighed.
Another player said in a deep voice: "The Yellow Turban Base Camp has it in every county, but it will not be divided into Jingbei or Jingnan. ”
"Also, not to mention that there are so many players participating in the war, everyone wants to be meritorious, and it won't stop."
"Whatever they toss, let's continue to enjoy the scenery of China in the game. It's just a pity that this great mountain and river, this is Wuling, and the legendary Peach Blossom Source should be here. ”
These two players are an outlier in the game, and they are not keen on leveling up and fighting monsters, but are obsessed with wandering around the game and enjoying the beauty of the game. Although the number of such players is not very large, it is not an isolated case, and many people are tired of the hustle and bustle of reality, and many people yearn for tranquility and nature.
"Yes, the Peach Blossom Spring, the legend says that there is no war-torn pure land."
"In "The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring", it is said that those people came to a desperate situation to avoid the chaos of the Qin Dynasty, if the legend is true, there should be a Peach Blossom Spring now, but no one has found it."
"Tao Yuanming's "The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring", I can still recite it."
"Aha, me too! Jin Taiyuan Middle ......"
"Wuling people fishing for the industry, the edge of the stream, forget the distance of the road. Suddenly, the peach blossom forest, hundreds of steps between the shore, there are no miscellaneous trees, the fragrant grass is delicious, and the fallen flowers are colorful...... When the forest runs out of water, there will be a mountain, and the mountain has a small mouth, as if there is light. Drop off the boat and enter from the mouth. At the beginning, it is extremely narrow, and only then can it be passed. After dozens of steps, it suddenly became clear. The land is flat, the houses are like that, and there are good fields and beautiful ponds and mulberry bamboos. Qianmo traffic, chickens and dogs smell each other......"
The two players recited "The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring" and drifted apart.
In a forest they had passed earlier, more than a dozen NPC villagers had walked out.
These villagers looked at the burning village, one by one, as if they were mourning, and some wanted to run back to put out the fire, but were pulled by their companions. The fire was too big for them to extinguish, and even if it did, the wars that broke out in the neighborhood every now and then made it impossible for them to live normally. When they hid in the woods before, everyone had a plan to leave here for the time being, and each of them took refuge with relatives and friends, and then came back after the war was over.
In the crowd, a young man looked in the direction the two players had left, silent in thought.
"Xun Yuan, let's go." A villager walked up to the young man and beckoned him to go with him.
Xun Yuan shook his head slowly: "I'm not going." ”
"Not going? Why don't you go again, where are you going? ”
"Did you hear the words of those two otherworldly warriors?"
Xun Yuan's eyes were blazing, and there seemed to be fire jumping in his eyes, and he said seriously: "There is a paradise in Wuling, in an unknown place. If I can find the Taoyuan, everyone will not have to pay those harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and they no longer need to avoid the war......"
The villagers persuaded: "Wake up, maybe those two otherworldly warriors said it casually, but it shouldn't be true!" ”
Xun Yuan had made up his mind, and said firmly: "It's good to have a hope, I'll look for it!" ”
Everyone left, and Xun Yuan embarked on a long road to find a paradise alone.
Yizhou, Chongguo County.
The two lords of the Yellow Turban camp came to Wan Ling and closed the door with Wan Ling in the lonely city to discuss matters. Actually, the players didn't need to meet or talk about things in such a primitive way, but they did it anyway, not so much for the sake of secrecy, but because the lords needed to huddle together to keep warm.
The three lords have one thing in common: they all participated in the expedition with Niuchengguan some time ago.
That expedition is still unbearable for them to look back on, and every time they think of that experience, they want to vomit a few liters of blood.
I thought that the Yellow Turban Base Camp would be destroyed, and the deer leader would be destroyed, coupled with the benefits promised by Niuchengguan, the three lords of Chongguo happily hired mercenaries, hoping to fish in troubled waters to catch some oil and water. What they never thought was that the ferocity of the Yimin in the subordinate territory of the Zhulu Territory was completely beyond everyone's understanding (they didn't know that Nanning Town was one of the mercenary camps), so they had to return in vain.
The oil and water were not caught, the money for hiring mercenaries was wasted, and several lords were extremely depressed.
In retrospect, in addition to making them work hard and lose money, the only purpose of that expedition was to let the Zhulu Leaders know that they wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob ......
What made them even more uneasy was that although their troops had never made a move, they had followed Niuchengguan after all, and the Niuchengguan troops had a fierce fight with Zhululing, and both sides lost hundreds of people. Yu Buzhi will definitely pursue this matter, once it is found out that the three Confiscation Lords are also involved, the Zhulu Leader may not accept their explanation that they "did not participate in the war", not to mention that they cannot prove it.
The Yellow Turban base camp was destroyed, and the deer collar was still the same deer collar, even more powerful.
They refused to continue the battle, insisted on returning to Chongguo, and angered Niuchengguan, when they left Zhululing, Niucheng's face sank like water, and they parted ways with the three lords before returning to Chongguo, and have not been in contact again.
"I spent a lot of money, but I didn't get half a point of benefit, and I offended two perverts who were not easy to mess with."
"I really accompanied my wife and broke the army."
"Mistake, how did the brothers get into this stall......"
The three lords sighed in the mayor's office, they were all fallen people from the end of the world, and they had a lot in common.
A lord asked Gucheng Wanren: "You are most familiar with Niuchengguan, what is he busy with this time?" ”
"Fight the cottage."
Lonely City Wan Qian said angrily: "He is a bandit player, although he has now entered the Yellow Turban camp, and the army has changed from a thief to a Yellow Turban, but the essence cannot change." As before, he needs to fight a few more cottages, otherwise when he is not careful, there will be a lonely village left, and people will be destroyed in minutes. ”
"Well, no wonder I haven't heard anything from him lately. Now that everyone is busy with historical battles, probably only some neutral players will fight the idea of copycats, and it is the right time for him to occupy the cottages. A lord said.
The other lord frowned and said, "Niuchengguan is very unhappy with us, will he trouble us in the future?" ”
"I'm afraid of hair!"
Lonely City Wan Cheng pouted, "He added the Yellow Turban, and we are also in the Yellow Turban camp, at least he didn't take us during the battle." When the Yellow Turban Battle is over, no, maybe you don't have to wait until the Yellow Turban Battle is over, and when the Eastern Han Dynasty camp knocks out the Yellow Turban base camp and occupies an absolute advantage, the county government or the Eastern Han Dynasty players don't trouble him? I believe that it won't be long before he will be like a rat crossing the street again, not to mention coming to us for trouble, if we don't go to him for trouble, it will already be very face-saving. ”
The two lords breathed a sigh of relief.
They knew that the lonely city of Wan Cheng was once very close to Niuchengguan, and he knew more things than them, and his words were more credible. Because of the withdrawal from the expedition, Niu Chengguan didn't give Gucheng Wan Cheng a good look, Gucheng Wan Cheng was so depressed that he didn't want to, he had a different position from Niu Chengguan, so he risked being liquidated by the deer leader and Yu was unwise, and Gucheng Wan Cheng couldn't accept it anyway.
To put it bluntly, his relationship with Niuchengguan is not yet iron.
There is not much of a problem on Niu Chengguan's side, but the threat of chasing the deer collar can't be put aside.
Although that expedition was secret, the coalition army went all the way south from Chongguo to Dianjiang, passing through many places, and with so many players in the game, it is difficult to tell whether it was recognized by the players. Besides, before their expedition, they all made corresponding arrangements in the territory, and entrusted players with better relationships in the same camp to help take care of the family.
Compared with Niu Chengguan, who has a problematic background, Yu Buzhi is obviously more difficult to deal with, and his development potential is also greater.
"Won't the Chase Leader put us on the blacklist for retaliation?"
"Who knows......"
"Even if he doesn't retaliate against us, he won't allow us to join the base camp clean-up operation, right?"
"Yes, I heard that the ditch has accepted registration, and if the action goes well, the next stop is probably our recharge."
The three lords sighed in unison: "......" (To be continued.) )
