234 Go to Yingchuan (ask for a ticket!) )
234 Departure to Yingchuan
Luoyang City.
An emergency military order was issued, and more than 300 players and NPC Hyo-ryo hurried outside the palace, of which half were players and half of them.
According to the ranking of the assessment results of filial piety more than ten days ago, they were directly awarded the official positions of eight to seven [military attachés] by the imperial court. One of them is an adult who is a seventh-rank military attaché and nine adults are eighth-rank military attachés.
At the temporary assembly point at the entrance of the heavily guarded palace, many NPC officials and eunuchs were busy, and many players were gathered around and watched the excitement.
One of the NPC generals loudly announced the official appointment: "Xiaobai, the best in the assessment, Silent Sword, Prosperous Han Tang, Xiaoye, Lonely Twin Cities....... and other twenty-seven people, who are the seven-rank military attache [Yamen general]. Average assessment scores..... and other 216 people, who are military attachés [ministers] of the eighth grade. The seventy-three people with poor assessment results were military attachés from the eighth rank [Qu Chang]. ”
Tooth Keeper: The official position of a seven-rank military general, with a maximum command of 1000NPC troops.
Tooth Keeper Talisman: Commander +3. Merit Requirements: 1. Required Level: 30. Skills: 1. Official authority. 2. Thousand people slash [attack five targets within five meters in front of you at the same time, exert 80% of normal attack power, skills cannot be upgraded, and consume internal strength].
Qu Chang and Minister: From the official position of the eight-rank and eight-rank military generals, the highest command is 400 and 800 NPC troops.
Minister's Symbol: Commander +2. Skills: 1. Official authority. 2. Drink [Frighten enemy NPCs within 10 meters in front of you who are lower than your identity for 4 seconds, use 20 seconds interval, 10% chance of success.] Not upgradeable. ]
Song Commander Talisman: Commander +1. Skills: 1. Official authority. 2. Drink [Frighten enemy NPCs within 10 meters in front of you who are below your identity for 2 seconds, use 20 seconds interval, 10% chance of success.] Not upgradeable. ]
Many players who have obtained the official position of the eighth rank have a lot of filial piety, and they are somewhat dissatisfied with the imperial court's division of them into three different grades. It is difficult to get promoted to an official position, and it is not easy to get promoted to a higher level. Moreover, the ability gap between official positions is also large, from the eight-rank qu commander to only 400 troops, but the seven-rank tooth goalkeeper is as high as 1,000 people, a difference of 2.5 times.
It's a pity that the NPC officials didn't give them a chance to protest at all, and the appointment took effect directly after it was issued.
The twenty-seven players of the Seven Rank official positions were collectively silent, and this kind of appointment did them a lot of benefits, and of course there were no complaints.
Soon, Zhan Xiaobai found that there was an extra official talisman of the Tooth Keeper in his equipment column, and he checked his nature.
Xiaobai: Level 43. Occupation: Baume & Mercier, General. Official position: Bapin Township Chief (Wen), Qipin Tooth Goalkeeper (Wu). Skills: Official authority, thousands of people slashed. Professions belong to "sex": politics 12, commander 7, force 4, intelligence 6, charisma 7. HP 265HP and stamina 53. Merit 1. Quality: None. State of Life: Healthy.
Weapons and equipment: Level 43 Mustang King [Full Harness Set, Advanced Gale, Advanced Cliff Restraint, Thousands of Miles Alone, Blood "Liquid" Burning], Level 30 Light Armor Set, Level 30 Blue Blade Sword, Some "Medicine" Items, and Several Copper Coins.
Zhan Xiaobai was inspecting the "sex".
The Warring States World in the group of filial piety players came over and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the little white brother for winning the seventh-rank official position." Mine is only the eighth grade, which is a cut off. The skill of slashing a thousand people is like a tiger in battle. ”
Zhan Xiaobai shook his head and smiled bitterly, the skill power of this thousand people is quite good, but unfortunately, he has not practiced internal strength books, and now he has no internal strength. It's not as good as a big drink skill. The only benefit of the tooth keeper is that it has increased the command power by 3 points, which should be good for leading troops. He said: "It's okay, I'm afraid that a thousand people will be killed, it's better to drink it." ”
All the players who got the official talisman "revealed" their happy looks.
With a stick of incense, the appointment of the imperial court official position was completed, and the NPC general continued: "Now, I announce the following military orders of the Great General's Mansion:
1. The above player officials who have been appointed to official positions will be distributed by the imperial court with 500 military salaries, 100 stone military rations, and automatically equipped with corresponding troop talismans. You need to immediately go to the various recruitment offices in the city to recruit NPC soldiers, and prepare to rush to the battlefield with the army to encircle and suppress the Yellow Turban rebellion. Departure time: February 16, 184 (7 o'clock).
2. All idle players in the imperial court camp can form and prepare soldiers, horses, and military rations by themselves, and follow the army to the battle. Those who have made meritorious contributions will be promoted to official positions.
3. Players choose to follow the armies of the imperial court to any of the eight states of Hebei, Henan, Jing, You, Yan, Qing, Xu, and Yang.
Keep in mind that this time the military salary will be paid only once, and the imperial court will not issue military pay again in the future, and the required military salary will be solved by itself. Okay, let's all disperse, immediately go recruit soldiers to prepare, and set off early tomorrow morning. All filial piety who deserted from the army in the middle of the journey will be treated as deserters, and the whole country will be hunted down and arrested. ”
The appointment of the imperial court officials ended. The players dispersed with joy. Whether it is a filial player who has obtained an official position, or an ordinary player who has not received an official position, they are more satisfied with this result.
There are dozens of large NPC recruitment points of different levels set up in Luoyang City, and NPC soldiers of different levels and types are brushed. These recruitment points are almost crowded with players, recruiting soldiers, preparing to go out of the city to encircle and suppress the scattered Yellow Turbans, and some powerful players plan to follow the imperial army and go to the states to encircle and suppress the main Yellow Turbans.
The filial piety players left the assembly point at the gate of the palace and did not recruit soldiers at the ordinary recruitment point, but went to the forbidden military camp in Luoyang City.
The forbidden military camp also farms NPC troops, but only players with a nine-rank official position or above in the imperial court are allowed to enter, and there are not many players with high-level official positions, so there are not many people in this place who compete with them to recruit soldiers.
Coming to the forbidden military camp, the filial piety players opened the recruitment book at the recruitment point and prepared to recruit. However, after watching for a while, no one started recruiting, but instead began to discuss what kind of soldiers were suitable to recruit.
The forbidden military camp provides all regular troops at level 10~90, up to hundreds of types.
Logistics: grain and grass soldiers, mule and horse carts, baggage carts [light, heavy],
Combat: Warriors, Swordsmen [Short Sword, Great Sword, Heavy Sword], Sword Soldier [Pu Knife, Broadsword, Heavy Sword], Spear Soldier [Short Spear, Long Spear, Heavy Spear], Armor Soldier [Light Armor, Heavy Armor], Archer [Short Bow, Long Bow, Strong Bow], Crossbow Soldier [Light Crossbow, Heavy Crossbow], Light Cavalry [Soft Armor, Light Armor], Archer Cavalry, Crossbow Cavalry, Lancer [Lancer, Heavy Lancer], Heavy Cavalry, Tiger Horseman, Assassin, Priest, Taoist Priest......
Support: Scout Ranger, Military Bandit, Medic, Secret Agent, Civil Builder......
Equipment: Crash cars, stone trucks, well fences, ladders, ballista cars [small, medium, large], trap beasts...... (The number of instruments is extremely limited, and the arsenal is slow to manufacture.) )
It's hard to choose if there are fewer troops, and it's also hard to choose if there are too many troops.
Moreover, the military salary distributed by the imperial court is limited, so it is natural to buy the most valuable NPC soldiers. 500 copper coins looks like a lot, but if you really want to buy it, you can't buy many soldiers.
A level 70 Tiger Rider can be as high as 150 Riders, and 500 Riders can only buy 3 Tiger Riders. Although the tiger is powerful, the number is too small to form a scale. There is no way to exert power on a large battlefield with hundreds of thousands of troops, but I am afraid that it is not as powerful as a hundred infantry.
The price of a small stone cart is as high as 200 yuan, and the march and battle must not only pull a few stone carts over.
The filial piety players pondered how to maximize efficiency. Logistics, combat, and support, these three types of NPC troops are best to buy, no logistics baggage vehicles are simply long-term combat, no combat classes can not fight at all, and soldiers without support classes can't exert their power and are easy to die.
However, these types of troops are divided up, and each of them can only buy a small number of troops.
It was immediately suggested that the salaries of the people should be combined, and the troops should be purchased together, and then they would fight together. As soon as this idea came out, everyone immediately applauded. However, a big problem immediately arises, as the NPC Force Commander can only be one player, not multiple players. In this way, the merit will be given to one person, and no one else will be meritorious.
The players couldn't help but get frustrated, gave up this idea, and recruited their own troops.
"Hey, which state are you going to go to? There are a total of eight states in the main battlefield under the whole world, and the strength of the Yellow Turban Army in each state is different. If you go to the same state, maybe you can take care of each other. ”
"Yes, if you go to the same state, you can cooperate with each other."
"I plan to go back to the state where my village is located, so that I can support my village at any time, and secondly, I can reduce the pressure on logistics and supplies."
"I went to the main battlefield in Jizhou and competed with the big boss of Zhangjiao, who went with me?"
"Jizhou? Jizhou is Zhangjiao's territory, it's too powerful. It's better to go to Qingzhou, the yellow scarf in Qingzhou is the weakest, there is no big yellow scarf boss, and it is easy to kill. ”
"Cut, if you want to kill, pick the powerful one to kill, what is there to fight in that kind of remote place."
The crowd is debating.
Zhan Xiaobai did not join the discussion, but was comparing the value of each class and thinking about which classes should be purchased. The following is a list of recruitment prices.
Grain and grass soldiers: 100 copper/person, 1 stone for transportation. Sluggish.
Mule and horse-drawn carts: 4 stones/car, 20 stones/car. Slow, 300% faster than the Grain and Grass Soldiers.
Baggage trucks: 10 per vehicle, 40 stone vehicles. Slow, 400% faster than the Grain and Grass Soldiers.
Military doctor: 1 guan/person, treatment.
Military music: 1 run/person, boost morale.
Scout Ranger: 5 times/person, scout the enemy.
Normally, it is best to equip all four types of military doctors, military music, reconnaissance rangers, and baggage vehicles, otherwise it will be uncomfortable to miss one. But don't care about these for now, it's not too late to choose combat NPCs first, and then choose support ones.
Among all the combat NPC soldiers, Zhan Xiaobai only took a fancy to three classes - level 30 light armor soldiers, level 30 light cavalry, and level 70 tiger cavalry. One is foot combat, and the other is cavalry. One is the cheapest low-level cavalry, and the other is the most expensive high-level cavalry.
Level 30 Light Armor: 5 Guan/person. Average attack power.
Level 30 Light Armored Cavalry: 30 Cavalry/Cavalry. The attack power is the same as that of the Light Armor. High maneuverability.
Level 70 Tiger Ride: 150 times/ride. Extremely high ATK. Forbidden military camp special troops, there are a total of 50, and the refresh speed is 1 horse/1 day.
In order to ensure the unity of the troops, only one of the three arms can be chosen.
But which one is better, Zhan Xiaobai hesitated.
500 can form a force of up to 100 light armorers, or 16 light cavalry, or 3 tiger horsemen. On a large-scale battlefield, 16 light cavalry and 3 tiger horsemen were of little effect. Only 100 Armorers can create a scale effect. However, he was not accustomed to the use of infantry.
The 70-level tiger cavalry is the best, but it's a pity that your wife is outrageous, what can 3 tiger cavalry do when they go to the battlefield? Cool? However, even if 16 hussars went to the battlefield, it seemed that there would be nothing they could do.
Zhan Xiaobai suddenly thought of something. If you only bring a very small number of tigers to ride...... The mobility will be extremely strong, and it will not need the cooperation of other classes at all. Grain can even be plundered on the spot. In that case, it seems that a large amount of money can be saved in terms of logistics and grass. Now the price of grain in Luoyang City is soaring, and 100 stone of grain can be sold at a very high price.
Zhan Xiaobai thought it clearly and did it immediately.
He immediately left the forbidden barracks. The players in the forbidden military camp were surprised, and they didn't know what Zhan Xiaobai was going to do suddenly.
Zhan Xiaobai ran to the military department to receive 95 stone of grain issued by the imperial court, and then sold it in the Luoyang market. Because the player has recruited too many NPC troops, the player does not have enough food supply in the market, and the food has reached the point of urgent shortage. 95 stone grain, sold at a high price of about 4,500 copper coins per stone, in exchange for 427.5 copper coins. In this way, he has 927.5 copper coins in his hand.
In the evening, Zhan Xiaobai ran back to the forbidden military camp. There are still a small number of players left in the forbidden barracks, and they are still selecting soldiers with extreme care.
Zhan Xiaobai looked at the recruitment book, and there were still 47 Tiger Riders left, that is, only one to three players chose Tiger Riders. The rest of the players didn't think about this super expensive class.
Zhan Xiaobai immediately said: "Recruit six tiger riders!" ”
Whoosh!
Six level 70 Tiger Cavalry appeared beside him. After recruiting, a Tiger Cavalry Talisman will automatically appear in his equipment slot. This is issued automatically by the system.
The players who were still hesitating to choose the class of filial piety almost didn't bare out in shock.
"Xiaobai~.... Recruited, 6 Tiger Riders? This~!"
"It's also such a waste.... 6 tiger ben, that's 900 guan! It's really rich! ”
"But what can six tiger riders do? I can't seem to do anything! ”
"Little White Boss, where did you get the money? Wouldn't it be a large sum of money yourself? ”
Zhan Xiaobai explained, "I sold all the military rations. Leaving a group of stunned players, he then took 6 Tiger Riders to the military headquarters to get the remaining 5 stone food. And buy a small amount of "medicine" products in the market to replenish blood and physical strength, and prepare to rush to the battlefield tomorrow.
Early the next morning, the imperial army of Luoyang City roared out of the imperial capital like a flood released by the river.
Millions of court players super miscellaneous army, hundreds of thousands of court NPC regular army, at the same time from the major cities of the court, huge steel armor dragons, towards the land of Shenzhou where the Yellow Turban Rebellion occurred.
Players who set off with the imperial army all sighed, a person is like an ant in the army, who can resist this huge military force!
Although all the players are a ragtag army, with only 1~2 NPC soldiers at the least, and only nearly 100 NPCs at the most, the overall number is huge, which has exceeded the strength of the imperial court, and the players will play a huge role in the "chaos" of the Yellow Turban.
Zhan Xiaobai rode the Wild Horse King, followed by six extremely fierce level 70 tiger horsemen. Everywhere he went, he was amazed. Everywhere the Tiger Rider went, it eclipsed all the NPC classes. It's a pity that everyone only has envy, except for the officers and soldiers of the imperial court, no one can have such a strong army.
They followed the main army of Yuzhou in the imperial court and set off to Yingchuan to encircle and suppress the Yellow Turban.
Along the way, the main general was led by the two super court commanders of Zhongzhong Lang Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun (Cao 'Cao' is now his subordinate cavalry captain), and the troops marched in two ways, targeting the Yellow Turban rebel army led by Bocai and Peng Tuo, two Yellow Turban generals who were active in the Yingchuan area.
