Chapter 671: History Repeats Itself
Soon the eight candidates chose their starting roles, and I believe you can also see that this strategy game is a strategy game adapted from the history of the Three Kingdoms in the Earth Age. At this time, among the starting roles chosen by the eight candidates, in addition to Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao were chosen, Diana's father Dai Milton chose Sun Jian, and the other candidates chose Tao Qian, Gongsun Zhan, Liu Biao, and Yuan Shu.
At the beginning of this game, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu were all located in the capital of the empire, Luoyang City, while Liu Bei was in the plains, and Sun Jian was in Changsha, Jiangdong.
None of the candidates who can participate in this strategy game are mediocre talents, so Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu soon find that Luoyang City is not a place to stay for a long time, and they must find a way to escape Luoyang City and return to their fundamental place to develop and strengthen their army and power.
As a result, the two of them fled from Luoyang City at the first time and fled back to the area where their power was most powerful, as for Cao Cao, played by Diana, he still chose to stay in Luoyang City to live around, which made the audience feel very puzzled, almost all of their opponents are desperately developing their own army, why is this Cao Cao still staying in Luoyang City?
"You give the order to Cao Cao to assassinate Dong Zhuo!" Liu Nianfeng said to Diana with a smile.
"How is this possible! Dong Zhuo's defense is so tight, how can we succeed in assassination! Diana asked, puzzled.
"It doesn't have to be successful...... Anyway, as long as you assassinate you......" Liu Nianfeng said with a smile.
"But what's the point of assassination if it fails?? Why are we doing this? Diana was still very puzzled.
"Actually, I don't know very much, but that's what Cao Cao did in history!" Liu Nianfeng said with a smile, it seems that the people of the Orc Empire have never seen the Romance of the Three Kingdoms!
Although Diana was puzzled in her heart, since this was Liu Nian Feng's order, Diana still did not hesitate to carry it out, and under Liu Nian Feng's arrangement, she decided to sacrifice the rare prop Seven Star Treasure Knife in her hand to make an assassination plan.
The result was, of course, a failure, and Cao Cao, played by Diana, fled from Luoyang City in embarrassment, which caused a burst of laughter from the audience who were watching the battle situation, and what was even more unfortunate was that when this Cao Cao was on the run, he was actually judged by the system to fail to escape and was arrested by a county magistrate named Chen Gong.
It is worth mentioning that this game is almost a text-only mode of play, so whether it is escaping from Luoyang City or being successfully captured, Diana only receives a piece of text information, in addition, all Diana needs to do is a set of various text information she has received, and constantly issue orders.
"It's over! This time I'm dead, my army is dead before it's even formed! Seeing that she was locked in a prison, Diana said in despair.
"Don't worry, something good will happen!" Liu Nianfeng said with a smile, not a few seconds after the real time, Diana received a piece of text information, that Chen Gong was actually moved by his heroic act of assassinating Dong Zhuo, and took the initiative to abandon the position of county commander and decided to conspire with Cao Cao.
"Look! This is the benefit of your assassination of Dong Zhuo, even if you fail, your reputation will give you a lot of benefits! Liu Nianfeng explained with a smile.
After fleeing with Chen Gong, Diana soon received another piece of information that they had entered the home of a man named Lu Bohao to rest. This Lu Boyao is a good friend of Cao Cao's father, but Cao Cao found that when he was resting, Lu Bohao's family was secretly sharpening their knives, so the system asked Diana to make a judgment and let Diana make a judgment and kill Lu Bohao's family first!
"This ......" Diana was a little hesitant, and the audience who saw this scene was also a little hesitant, but soon a large number of viewers made a unanimous decision, that is, to kill, to kill this Lu Boyu family!
Orcs! The character is born with a reckless and murderous character, since this Lu Bohao's family is secretly sharpening their knives, then in the spirit of preferring to believe that they have something or not, a large number of orc viewers decided that they must kill Lu Bohao's family, otherwise if they are sold by Lu Bohao, it will be a catastrophe.
"Or kill them?" Diana asked weakly.
"Kill what a kill! Where are there so many bad people in this world, this Lu Boyu family just wants to invite us to eat pork! Liu Nianfeng said with a natural face, of course, if he hadn't read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms in advance, then Liu Nianfeng would definitely kill Lu Bohao's family for the sake of insurance.
"Okay!" Diana nodded, and unexpectedly chose to let Lu Bohao's family go, and all the audience immediately scolded angrily, saying that this Diana is a woman of kindness, and she is not worthy of leading the orc empire at all!
Of course, the result was a slap in the face, and the system quickly replied, saying that Lu Bohao's family sharpened their knives to kill pigs and sheep to entertain Cao Cao, and at that time, Lu Boyao also presented Cao Cao with a thousand gold, as the capital of Cao Cao's start, and sent someone to escort Cao Cao all the way back to the territory of Cao Cao's family.
In fact, it doesn't matter what this daughter is, what makes Liu Nianfeng even more important is that in this way, whether Chen Gong left Cao Cao because of the death of Lu Bohao's family, but stayed to become Cao Cao's first strategist, which is undoubtedly of great significance to Cao Cao.
What followed was a period of regular development, Cao Cao began to recruit troops in his family territory like other candidates, and at the same time found that the elite soldiers in the family were strong, but because the starting time was about half a year later than the other candidates, Cao Cao's accumulated troops and equipment were far less rapid than those of other candidates.
And what makes all the audience feel even more incomprehensible is that this Cao Cao did not recruit troops wholeheartedly, but instead went on an expedition and ran to a place called Yingchuan, spending a lot of money to recruit talents, and the result once again greatly affected the speed of recruitment, and when half a year passed, Cao Cao's soldiers and horses were not more than half of the other candidates, and he had become the weakest of the eight candidates.
By the time the game has passed for about a year [PS: In actual history, three months have passed], and the eight candidates have almost recruited troops, among which the most powerful is Ji An, who chose Yuan Shao, because of his excellent background of the character, so Yuan Shao's development is almost unhindered, just set up his own chess pieces, and immediately harvested a large number of soldiers and horses, and the initiative of the strategists was thrown, and the power was soon strong to the extent that he had 20,000 elite soldiers.
At this time, Ji An was also keenly aware that if he wanted to win the hearts of the people in this game, he had to do something big to win the hearts of the people, just like Cao Cao did before. So Ji An was ready to launch a call for the princes of the world to crusade against Dong Zhuo, and Henan Opera to establish its own prestige and popularity.
What Ji An never expected at that time was that when he just issued his own call to call for a crusade against Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao, the weakest guy, actually issued a summoning order at the same time, and this guy also claimed to have the secret edict of Emperor Han Xian in his hand, and it was Emperor Han Xian who ordered him to raise troops to fight against Dong Zhuo.
Except for the forces of the eight candidates, all the other NPC forces have responded, and the system has also sent messages to tell these candidates that the soldiers under their command have asked for battle, and if they do not participate in the alliance, it is very likely that there will be a change of rebellion and light separation. As a result, even if the other candidates are reluctant, they can only lead their elite troops to participate in this alliance.
And what makes Ji An feel even worse is that it is clear that his soldiers and horses are the most powerful among all the candidates, but those NPCs are not birds, and they have elected Cao Cao as the leader of the alliance, on the grounds that Cao Cao has the emperor's secret edict in his hand, and Cao Cao is the one who dares to assassinate Dong Zhuo, so this secret edict must be true!
Although I feel that the logic between the two is a little confusing, what makes Ji An even more desperate is that the other candidates actually all chose to support Cao Cao, the reason Ji An doesn't need to think about it, it must be that those candidates are afraid of Ji An's current strongest strength, so they are unwilling to let Ji An do the position of the leader of the alliance, so he simply elected Cao Cao, who has the weakest overall strength and only 5000 elite soldiers, to become the leader of the alliance, anyway, even if this Cao Cao's strength is the leader of the alliance, there is no threat.
There is nothing to say next, followed by the war against Dong Zhuo, and Liu Bei and Sun Jian, the two players, performed very eye-catching in the battle, charging ahead, and the two worked together to defeat Lu Bu, known as the strongest man in the mainland, and broke through Luoyang City, earning a lot of fame. As for Yuan Shao, because of his small belly and chicken intestines, he was unwilling to work hard to gain benefits for Cao Cao, so he made all kinds of strokes, and in the end, his reputation fell badly.
After the crusade against Dong Zhuo ended, and Dong Zhuo fled to the Chang'an region, the princes from all walks of life returned to their respective territories and began to develop.
Although Yuan Shao wanted to destroy Cao Cao, a disgusting guy, immediately, whenever Yuan Shao was about to give an order, there would immediately be strategists who objected, saying that now that Cao Cao had gathered the popularity of the world, if Yuan Shao dared to attack Cao Cao, he would definitely be spurned by the world...... So Ji An, who played Yuan Shao, became a little shrunken, and decided to pick up the soft pinch first and destroy Gongsun Zhan in his north, so that he would no longer have worries about his back.
And Hai Erwei, who played Liu Bei, didn't seem to have the idea of competing with Yuan Shao, and began to advance to Qingzhou with all his might, turning Qingzhou into his own territory, as for Cao Cao, he also began to quickly clean up Yanzhou's territory. Because of the huge advantage and fame of being the leader of the alliance before, Cao Cao's speed of cleaning up Yanzhou was much faster, and it almost took less than three months to completely unify the entire Yanzhou.
And just when he was preparing to start a big battle to unify the world, a sudden system prompt was sent to every candidate.
"System: Dong Zhuo was killed by Lu Bu, the strongest man in the mainland, Emperor Han Xian took advantage of the chaos to escape from Dong Zhuo's control, and now he has returned to Luoyang City, and issued an edict to all the princes, hoping to get the support and protection of the princes, please decide for yourself whether you want to welcome Emperor Han Xian into your own territory."
"Who wants to invite a daddy to their heads!" Helway glanced at this information and threw it away as waste paper.
"If I go to Luoyang, I'm going to pass through Cao Cao's territory...... And why should I ask a dad to my head! Ji An also threw this edict aside.
"Go! Even if you run the horse to death, you must get the emperor into my hands! And Cao Cao began to snatch the big treasure of Emperor Han Xian in a hurry!
