Chapter 252: Eleventh Round
In order to make full use of Zhang Ning's skills, Yang Rui will only let Zhang Ning use the Heavenly Spirit Fire Rain skill when encountering a Qiang territory above the level of a town.
In this process, Yang Rui also experienced the effect of Zhang Ning's other two auxiliary skills, "Meditation" can effectively increase the defense of junior generals and soldiers within the skill range by 1 times, and the most significant thing is that it can increase the internal force value of junior generals by 1 time, making its output basically double; The "recuperation" effectively enhances the combat endurance of the generals and soldiers, and restores the blood volume for them at all times, not in a very intense battle, basically do not have to worry about the problem of blood volume!
The only drawback is that Zhang Ning's two major stunts are continuation skills, and they can't be used at the same time, which greatly limits their effects! However, under the current situation, the challenge faced by Yang Rui to brush the Xiqiang rebels is not very great, but he can let Zhang Ning's two skills be used in rotation.
As for Zhang Ning's own Dao skill consumption, he basically doesn't have to worry about it, with his stunt Dao attainment, it is basically inexhaustible in a short period of time. Yang Rui's current level of primary internal strength has been reduced by a few thousand points, reaching more than 3,200 points; By analogy, if you cross the intermediate and advanced levels and reach stunts, you will have more than one million Dao points to say the least!
After reaching this level, there is basically no need to worry about the mental cultivation reserves, unless you encounter an opponent of the same level, the two sides fight for hundreds of rounds, and the ultimate move continues, it is possible to drain the mental cultivation reserves; Of course, after continuous battles without getting recovered, it is also possible to cultivate the mental method to exhaustion. At the moment of the game, these two possibilities should not appear for the time being!
Yang Rui and the others sang all the way. Invincible. Most of the day passed. Yang Rui attacked a total of 15 Qiang village-level territories and 4 Qiang town-level territories, which was due to the small population of Xiliang Land and the relatively sparse territory.
Many of the Qiang people's military territories were captured and plundered, and Yang Rui naturally obtained equipment, skill books and other items, among which the number of second-order and third-order skill books exceeded 10,000, and only the second-order skill books accounted for more than 9.5 percent. Yang Rui was thinking about whether to sell some of the low-level skill books, and the number of low-level skill books in his hands far exceeded the demand. And the price of skill books in the current market is still not low.
When Dashan Town upgraded the territory of the advanced town, Yang Rui once noticed that the price of the second-order skill book on the market was about 1 silver coin, while the third-order skill book was more scarce, the price was about 30 silver coins, and the fourth-order skill book was very scarce, all of which exceeded 5 gold coins, such as the 4th-order cavalry skill book had exceeded 10 gold coins, and the equivalent of real coins was more than 1,000 yuan.
Of course, Yang Rui is only full of second-order and third-order skill books, and the fourth-order skill books are also cherished in Yang Rui's hands. Yang Rui hadn't obtained much from the beginning, even less than the number of Tier 5 skill books! Previously, Yang Rui was still thinking about whether to spend money to buy some. It's just that it's not urgent at the moment, so it hasn't been put into practice yet.
Not to mention that Yang Rui won a lot of Qiang territory, and he obtained more than 100 gold coins from looting alone, mainly because almost all of the Qiang town territories were burned by Zhang Ning, otherwise this harvest would have been a lot more.
Near ten o'clock in the evening, Yang Rui and the others occupied a high-level village as a temporary foothold, and at the same time, a Qiang city, Ledu City, also appeared in the scope of Yang Rui's exploration, which just met the requirements of Yang Rui's brocade box task, that is, Yang Rui kept his heart.
However, the terrain of this small city is very peculiar, it is built on a half-moon shaped lake, almost surrounded by half-moon lake on three sides, only one side is exposed but blocked by strong walls and gates, so it is very difficult to attack the city head-on.
However, this is without considering Zhang Ning's factor, if Yang Rui takes the measure of strong attack, it is not difficult to use the Heavenly Spirit Fire Rain skill to forcibly break through the city, but in that case, the building structure of Ledu City will inevitably suffer a lot of damage.
After the defensive building is damaged, once there is a follow-up mission requirement, it will be difficult for a city that has lost its defensive ability to be of great use, so Yang Rui is more inclined to try to maintain the integrity of the city in case of emergency, and he is not ready to use Zhang Ning's skills until it is absolutely necessary!
In the early morning of the second day, before Yang Rui and the others could make any moves, a group of figures had already appeared around the high-level village they occupied, and they quickly rushed towards the high-level village.
"System prompt: Since you have chosen to occupy the Qiang village - Nanwa for more than 6 hours, you are being attacked by the Xiqiang rebels for the first time, please pay attention to defending the village!"
But it turned out that the counterattack of the Xiqiang rebels had come! In his previous life, Yang Rui had not tried to capture and occupy a territory of the Xiqiang rebels due to his weak strength, so this was also the first time that Yang Rui faced a counterattack by the Xiqiang rebels.
However, the first round of the Qiang people's counterattack only invested four or five hundred Western Qiang soldiers, and most of them were 1st and 2nd order soldiers, and the total military strength would not exceed 1,500. Yang Rui didn't have much pressure on this, and quickly dispersed the 20 junior generals and 800 fourth-order archers he brought to the vicinity of the four gates of the village, and let go of his hands and feet to fight.
How could the hundreds of 1st and 2nd order soldiers of the Xiqiang rebels be the opponents of these capable soldiers under Yang Rui, in less than a quarter of an hour, the soldiers of the Xiqiang rebels were wiped out, and dozens of soldiers who wanted to escape were also caught up by the junior generals under Yang Rui, and all of them were ambushed on the spot.
"System prompt: Congratulations on defeating the first round of counterattack of the Xiqiang rebels, and after that, every 3 hours, the Xiqiang rebels in the surrounding territory will counterattack the village you occupy, Nanwa. In 3 hours, you will have the second round of counterattack of the Xiqiang rebels, so please prepare for defense. ”
It was only at this time that Yang Rui figured out the law of the Qiang rebels' counterattack. Because the second round of counterattack by the Xiqiang rebels was still early, it was impossible for Yang Rui to wait here, so he took the initiative to give up this high-level Qiang village and brushed up the Xiliang rebels within hundreds of miles with Ledu City as the center.
At the same time, Yang Rui is also searching for a more suitable Xiqiang territory, and it is best to make the town territory above the level. It's not too far from Ledu City! Yang Rui was ready to try to attract the Xiqiang rebel forces in Ledu City.
The system prompted Yang Rui to notice. The Xiqiang rebels who participated in the counterattack were all soldiers from the surrounding territories. Although this kind of stronghold soldiers can be refreshed indefinitely, but refresh also requires a process, if you can grasp the time to evacuate the Xiqiang soldiers in Ledu City, and capture them before the rebel soldiers in them are refreshed, the difficulty of attacking the city will naturally drop a lot!
Of course, in order to achieve this goal, we must first have an accurate understanding of the refresh rate of the Xiqiang rebels, and at the same time, we can also have a general understanding of the deployment of troops in Ledu City. In this way, you can calculate the timing of the emptiness in the city and give it a thunderous blow!
When the time was almost noon, Yang Rui finally took a small town about 100 miles away from Ledu City. This town seems to be a horse breeding place for the Qiang people, with hundreds of 4th-order Xiqiang cavalry moving around, and there are very few foot soldiers defending in the town.
Theoretically, with more than 100 fourth-order cavalry, the defense of the town here is much higher than that of other places, but how can the fourth-order cavalry be the opponent of Yang Rui and other junior generals, Yang Rui quickly defeated these cavalry around him after discovering the town here, and rushed into the town all the way. Occupied the entire town without destroying the town's defenses.
It is worth mentioning. In the process of occupying the town, Yang Rui not only obtained more than 20 sets of rank 4 cavalry transfer skill books and equipment, but also captured more than 100 ownerless horses in the town! Definitely a bonus!
Previously, Yang Rui knew that there were many horses in Liangzhou, and even some wild horses in the wilderness for players or NPCs to tame, which was also one of Yang Rui's important purposes for coming to Xiliang, he had signed a horse supply agreement with the CU Alliance, and the number of horses needed was not a few. However, Yang Rui did not expect that the capture of the Xiqiang rebels could directly capture the ownerless horses, which also provided a new way for Yang Rui to source horses.
After occupying this small town called "Mapo", Yang Rui sent all the 42 fifth-order thief leaders with him to reconnoiter the strength of the surrounding Xiqiang rebels, and prepare to observe the pattern of participating in the counterattack against the Qiang army. Among them, especially in the direction of Ledu City, Yang Rui sent the most bandit leaders.
The 42 fifth-order thief leaders sent by Yang Rui were all equipped with horses by Yang Rui to grasp the distribution and movements of the surrounding Xiqiang rebels in a timely manner. Soon the situation of the Xiqiang rebels within 50 miles was found out and reported back by the thieves, and Yang Rui took advantage of the break of five or six hours in the first round of counterattack of the Xiqiang rebels, and gave priority to the 2 town-level Qiang territories and 10 village-level Qiang territories within 50 miles.
The harvest of knocking out these Qiang territories is still secondary, and the most important thing is that Yang Rui can reduce some of the targets of exploration, so as to better find out the law of the Xiqiang rebels' refresh and counterattack.
Sure enough, 6 hours later, although it was the middle of the night, the Xiqiang soldiers who participated in the first round of counterattack appeared. However, not long after the rebels appeared, they were captured by the 5th-order thief leader sent by Yang Rui! This handful of four or five hundred low-level Xiqiang rebels came from the five nearest village-level territories in Mapo Town, and they each set out and converged 10 miles west of Mapo Town, and then immediately pounced on Mapo Town.
From the beginning of their respective villages, these soldiers were targeted by the leaders of the thieves. It was night, and it happened to be the home time of the 5th order thief leader, even if their sense of smell was not comparable to the NMD of Lao Mei in reality, it would not be much inferior!
The next round of counterattack every 3 hours, most of the Xiqiang rebels' dispatch rules have not escaped the eyes of the thieves, many times the rebels have only gone half the distance, Yang Rui has already obtained detailed information, and even three or four times Yang Rui has tried to intercept the rebels halfway with a group of junior generals, and did not give them the opportunity to counterattack to the door!
And with the increase in the number of counterattacks by the Xiqiang rebels, the military strength sent each time will almost increase by about 40%, and it is no wonder that the best results of the Three Kingdoms Civilization Zone in the previous life only held for 17 rounds. Based on the current law, defending 17 rounds is equivalent to an increase of more than 200 times the military strength, which is enough to make the iron-blooded person who created this record proud!
"System Prompt: Congratulations on once again repelling the Xiqiang rebels for 5 consecutive rounds of counterattack, and making outstanding contributions to the Han Dynasty's defense and expansion, and the player is specially rewarded with 200 gold coins of Lieyang for encouragement"
"System prompt: Congratulations on defeating the 11th round of counterattack of the Xiqiang rebels, and in the next 3 hours, the surrounding territory of the Xiqiang rebels will carry out the 12th counterattack on the town territory you occupy-Mapo, please prepare for defense."
Yang Rui held on until the third day, during which he had repelled the counterattacks of the Xiqiang rebels 11 times, and twice received additional rewards from the system every 5 rounds! (To be continued......)
