Chapter 367: Return to Heyang
Yang Rui didn't know what the Empress Dowager He was thinking, but he knew his own strength better, and the difficulty of assisting the young emperor's mother and son was even better than that of his own start, Yang Rui of course categorically refused.
At this time, the desire for power expressed by the Empress Dowager He is also very strong, which also exacerbates Yang Rui's worries about the impact of the Empress Dowager He's mother and son in the future, and how to solve the problem of the whereabouts of these two people is imminent!
After Yang Rui and Empress Dowager He talked for half an hour, Empress Dowager He finally cashed out the other two rewards given to Yang Rui, namely a jade bottle with a total of 20 Yang Yuan Dan and 10,000 sets of 2~5 level special troops-personal female guard's skill book!
"System prompt: Congratulations to the player Lieyang, who successfully rescued the young emperor Liu Wei out of the palace, and received a reward of 5 million gold coins, 20 Yang Yuan Dan and 10,000 sets of personal female guard skill books"
Although Empress Dowager He gave a task reward, judging from her last words, she still did not give up fighting for Yang Rui, and said that if Yang Rui was willing, she could still agree to a series of conditions proposed before at any time.
"Yangyuan Dan: Yellow-grade high-grade pill. The elixir that effectively increases internal strength can improve the purity and upper limit of the user's internal strength, and the absorption time is not more than 1 hour, and the consumption time is not less than 10 days. Limit the use of 1 capsule each time, and only take it once every 10 days, and it will not be effective if you repeat it! The applicable object is limited to the strength of the special military generals and below! ”
While Yang Rui was with Empress Dowager He, he also checked the task rewards a little, among which 20 Yangyuan Pills were yellow-level high-grade pills, which were exactly what Yang Rui urgently needed at the current stage of strength; The personal female guard skill book is also a good thing, and the grade and number of skill books are quite considerable. It's just that the person required must be a palace maid. It is completely useless in Yang Rui's hands!
Empress Dowager He also made it clear when she gave these skill books. After she returns to the helm of the society, she will recruit the corresponding palace maids to Yang Rui and help Yang Rui get the corresponding candidates! This is obviously still a trap for Yang Rui, and Yang Rui wants to help him restore his rights, Yang Rui didn't want to take these skill books, but the Empress Dowager He was unwilling to take out other things, and Yang Rui still took over the storage bag containing the skill books in vain.
During the process, Yang Rui also tried to mention the matter of Tenglong's internal strength and heart* soul, but Empress Dowager He bluntly said that she didn't know that there was this exercise, but from Empress Dowager He's reaction when she heard the name of the exercise. Yang Rui also seemed to have noticed something.
After coming out of the boat taken by the Empress Dowager He, Yang Rui thought about it again and again, and for the time being, he really couldn't let Liu Wei's mother and son appear in the area east of the Tiger Prison Pass, especially after seeing the attitude of the Empress Dowager He, Yang Rui's feeling became even stronger.
Therefore, Yang Rui immediately ordered the fleet to turn back, and then went in the direction of Heyang County upstream, when the Empress Dowager He asked the reason, Yang Rui just said that there was Dong Zhuo's fleet in front of him to block it, and there was a great danger, so he could only turn back.
For Yang Rui's statement, Empress Dowager He did not have any doubts. Although she is also a very clever person by nature, after all, she has been in the palace for a long time. I didn't have much confidence about the shape on the battlefield, and at this time, I heard that Dong Zhuo's troops were blocking it, and the Empress Dowager He, who had been frightened a lot in front, naturally let Yang Rui's actions go.
So after the fleet set off for a circle on the Yellow River, it was redispatched back by Yang Rui, and the fleet had not yet gone half the distance. And later developments have also proved that Yang Rui's temporary decision is at least not a wrong choice, and a lot of trouble should be avoided
When Yang Rui led the fleet back to the vicinity of Heyang County, it was already after dawn, Yang Rui put all the soldiers in the territory, and after only half a day's rest, he began to brush up the forces of Dong Zhuo's camp in the surrounding area, including the living forces and various territories are the objects of Yang Rui's points and merit points.
At present, Yang Rui owes too many points, and there is a point gap of nearly 10 million points if he wants to resurrect all the damaged 5th order special soldiers, so it has become a major priority for Yang Rui to earn points as much as possible in the plot of Dong Zhuo's Rebellion in the future.
In one afternoon, Yang Rui, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Wu Anguo and others divided into four routes, and basically cleaned up the town- and village-level territories in the area around Heyang County, leaving only Zhang Ning, Chen Lin and a small number of subordinates to stay in place to take care of Liu Wei, Empress Dowager He and a group of female officials, and the sailor fleet was stationed in Mengjin in Heyang County to control the surface of the Yellow River near zhì.
The entire county seat of Heyang has been reduced to an island before nightfall, and all other places except the county seat have all fallen into Yang Rui's control, and in the process of seizing the control of these towns and villages, Yang Rui has also brushed up a lot of merit points and points, making up for hundreds of thousands of points.
After night came, Yang Rui integrated almost all the troops except for the water pawns, surrounded Heyang County, and only waited for the opportunity to take Heyang County into his pocket.
In fact, at present, the number of Dong Zhuo's soldiers stationed in Heyang County exceeds 20,000, which is more than Yang Rui's troops besieging the city, but the rank of soldiers and generals is much worse than Yang Rui's troops!
Moreover, these Dong Zhuo's subordinates also crossed the Yellow River to control the county seat of Heyang after Wang Kuang, the Taishou of Hanoi County, transmitted the sour jujube alliance, and did not get much support from the people of Heyang County, and the foundation was not too solid.
Therefore, when Yang Rui attacked the territory of various villages and towns in Heyang County, these Dong Zhuo troops took the initiative to challenge, wanting to solve Yang Rui's trouble as soon as possible, but they were finally defeated due to the gap in strength and returned, and they were also very anxious after seeing Yang Rui besiege the city at this time.
In a similar situation to Heyang County, several county towns west of Hugao Pass also fell into the hands of Dong Zhuo after Taishou Wang Kuang went to the Sour Zao Alliance, and it can be said that Dong Zhuo almost controlled the small Banla territory of Hanoi County, but he did not send many generals to guard it, but only stationed one or two thousand soldiers in each county town.
For these situations, Yang Rui has traveled back and forth to the surface of the Yellow River west of Hugao Pass several times, which is naturally clear, so Dong Zhuo's Xiaobanla Hanoi County has also become Yang Rui's preferred target for brushing merit points and points in the future.
Let's say that after Yang Rui surrounded the city of Heyang County, because Dong Zhuo's forces in the city did not have a general to defend it, most of the guards were very frightened, and finally after a night, Yang Rui did not send people to attack the city, and when it was close to dawn, the guards in the city found that Yang Rui's troops in the direction of the west gate of Heyang City had all evacuated without a trace!
And not long after, Yang Rui sent Zhang Ning to perform the Heavenly Spirit Fire Rain Great Move at the East Gate of Heyang City, because the casting distance of the Heavenly Spirit Fire Rain stunt is much farther than the range of the bow and arrow, so he saw that the entire East City Gate was submerged in the sea of fire, and the soldiers stationed in it had fallen in the first time, but the guards on the city wall could only watch, and there was no way.
If this continues, the East City Gate will be burned to ruins sooner or later, and if Yang Rui's troops want to enter the city again, I'm afraid no one will be able to stop them! Moreover, Zhang Ning's Heavenly Spirit Fire Rain skill looked too shocking, and the soldiers guarding the city were already a little timid in their hearts the moment they saw the skill being used.
In this way, it didn't take long for the guards in Heyang City to begin to disperse, and they escaped from the west gate of the unbesieged city, and scattered in all directions. In the case of someone taking the lead, the military spirit of all the guards has long been shaken, Yang Rui has not really attacked the city, and the defenders in the city have begun to flee.
"Kill!"
After a simple kill, Yang Rui quickly occupied the entire city of Heyang City, and pursued the scattered soldiers for a while, and the number of soldiers in Dong Zhuo's camp was not a few.
After a big victory, Yang Rui gained hundreds of thousands of merit points and points, and the most important thing was to occupy the county seat of Ha Du, so that he had a base for the next operation in the area of Hanoi County. And with the city of Heyang City as the foundation, Yang Rui can already accomplish many things that he couldn't implement before, including resurrecting soldiers and sorting out and storing loot.
The resurrection of soldiers is only carried out in territories above the county seat, and Yang Rui first spent more than 9 million points accumulated before to resurrect more than 9,000 fifth-order iron guard soldiers, and the strength lost was restored by about half.
And careful players will also find that Lieyang, who is at the top of the points value rankings, has suddenly fallen out of the list, and his name can no longer be found; On the merit value rankings, Lieyang still takes the lead, almost exceeding 10 million merit points!
Secondly, Yang Rui cleaned up the trophies from the soldiers' backpacks since the first battle in Luoyang City and put them in the treasury of Heyang City. After this cleanup, Yang Rui also found that there have been a lot of various gains since the rescue of the Young Emperor, which are mainly based on money, equipment, and skill books!
The amount of money exceeded 300,000 gold coins, even if there was still a gap with Yang Rui's income of millions of dollars when he did tasks, but it was already a large number, not including the tens of thousands of gold coins harvested in the treasury when he later took Heyang City.
In terms of skill books, Yang Rui's biggest gain, including more than 60,000 copies of various 4-order skill books, regardless of their market value for the time being, the current 4-level skill books are also what Yang Rui needs most!
In addition, there are more than 20,000 skill books of various levels, including more than 40 sets of skill books for primary, intermediate and senior generals, more than 8,000 skill books of various 5-level skills, and the rest are mostly 3-level soldier skill books.
Although there are very few special class skill books among all kinds of skill books, most of them are ordinary class skill books, but they include more than 5,000 Tier 4 and Tier 5 long-range archer skill books, which is undoubtedly a big gain for Yang Rui, who lacks long-range strength.
As for the more than 30 female officials who Yang Rui hijacked out of the palace, after Zhang Ning's careful interrogation, there should be no Diao Chan among these female officials, but the female officials also have some skills, and they generally have one or two conventional talent skills similar to Wei Xiu, and most of them are tailors, which can be regarded as an unexpected gain!
