298 The Rise of the Princes

298 The Rise of the Princes

The miraculous fire meteor smashed near the Qiang camp, and was attacked by Dong Zhuo taking advantage of the "chaos", the Qiang army was defeated in a mess, and he was no longer able to invade Chang'an in the east.

However, the court side was not comfortable, and the war with the Qiang people was protracted, costing a lot of money, food, soldiers and horses. On the borders of Bingzhou and Youzhou in the north, the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Karasuma and other Yi ethnic groups have successively seen medium- and small-scale military "commotions", and the "chaos" is spreading. In order to deter Zhuyi, the imperial court had to transfer heavy troops from the Liangzhou front to guard the northern border to prevent unrest. Naturally, a truce with the Qiang people in Jincheng is needed. Zhang Wen led the army back to Luoyang, and all the meritorious generals were rewarded separately. However, many officials sighed when they heard that Sun Jian had accused Chen Dongzhuo of three crimes and persuaded Zhang Wen to kill him, but to no avail. (There is a difference between this plot and the official history)

After this battle, Liangzhou formed a situation of division of princes.

Dong Zhuo, gathered the remnants of the Qiang army, led 30,000 soldiers and horses, stationed in Tianshui, mastered Longxi County and Wudu County, and suppressed the rebels of Xiliang.

Subordinate generals: Li Ru (Dong Zhuo's son-in-law), Niu Pu (Dong Zhuo's son-in-law), Dong Min (Dong Zhuo's brother), Qi Huang (Dong Zhuo's nephew), Li Dao, Zhang Ji, Guo Yan, Jia Xu, Hua Xiong, Fan Chou, Xu Rong, Li Meng, Wang Fang, Zhao Cen, Hu Zhen, Cui Yong (Guo Yan's general), Yang Feng (Li Zhuo's general), Xu Huang (Yang Feng's general), Zhang Xiu (Zhang Ji's nephew).

Ma Teng, leading more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, occupied Anding City. Subordinate generals: Pang De, Ma Chao (less), Ma Dai (less).

Han Sui, leading more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, occupied Jincheng. Subordinate generals: Yan Xing (Han Sui's son-in-law), Li Xiangru (former Longxi Taishou), Lu Yan, Jiang Shi.

Bian Zhang, leading nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses, Jincheng County.

Beigong Boyu, who led more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of the tribe, was stationed in Xiping County. General: Qiang hero.

Li Wenhou, who led more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of the tribe, was stationed in Xiping County. General: Qiang hero.

Song Yang, leading thousands of soldiers and horses, was stationed in Baohan.

Zhan Xiaobai, occupied Wuwei City, controlled Wuwei County, and led 17,000 soldiers and horses. Subordinate generals: Jiang Xu, Jiang Jiong.

In addition, there are eight rebel armies, including Ma Wan, Zhang Heng, Hou Xuan, Cheng Yin, Li Kan, Liang Xing, Cheng Yi, and Yang Qiu, which are scattered throughout the counties of Liangzhou and dominate one side. There are also Xingguo Di Wang Agui, Baiqing Di Wang Yang Qian, and other independent forces of the Qiang tribe.

Most of them belong to the NPC warlord forces, and only Zhan Xiaobai's family is the player force, which can be regarded as a standout. In the current Liangzhou, only Dong Zhuo and Zhan Xiaobai still belong to the imperial court camp, and the rest belong to the rebel camp.

The entire Liangzhou still belongs to the Eastern Han Dynasty on the surface. But in essence, it has broken away from the rule of the imperial court and has become a territory for various warlords to fight for. The imperial court is powerless at the moment, and it can't command the powerful people in Liangzhou.

......

The dynamics of NPC warlords and player forces in various states and counties in the world.

Needless to say, Liangzhou is not much to say.

Of the thirteen states in the world, except for Liangzhou, which is the worst, the rest of the states and counties are "stable", at least they are not out of the control of the imperial court. And the state, the hardest hit area of the invasion of the Xiongnu and Xianbei soldiers. Youzhou suffers from the infestation of Karasuma. In Jizhou, the Yellow Turban Army, whose embers were not extinguished, wreaked havoc in Taihang Mountain, killing officials and invading the city. In Qingzhou, Taishan thieves wantonly made a "chaos". Jingzhou, Dongting Lake water thieves are rampant. Yangzhou, Poyang Lake water thieves are rampant. Yizhou, the Southern Barbarians are in turmoil. Jiaozhou, the mountains are rising. In Hanzhong, the rise of Wudou Midao.

This chaotic situation undoubtedly gives players a lot of room for manipulation.

Division (Luoyang).

The two major player leaders led by the Silent Sword and the Shengshi Han Tang Dynasty have vigorously operated and developed their own territories in Yingchuan and Hongnong respectively, and their villages have already been upgraded to Zhongzhen, and they have each established a huge village alliance to catch up with the Xiaobai Alliance in Liangzhou.

However, their territory is in the Luoyang area, and there have always been elite troops of the five schools of the imperial court stationed in the Luoyang area, and no player force dares to attack the imperial court city within the scope of the division, for fear of being surrounded and suppressed.

This made the two leaders depressed, seeing that Xiaobai in Liangzhou had captured Wuwei City, they could only look at the city and sigh, and did not dare to act rashly - the elite soldiers of the five schools in Luoyang City were not vegetarians.

Who let them build the village in the division? If they were on the border, maybe they would have already learned to attack the city like Xiaobai and cut off the city as the king. However, there is also a great advantage in Sili, that is, there is no NPC warlord soldier disaster "chaos" in the Sili area for the time being, and the situation is very stable, which creates a good environment for the player village to do business and develop.

It is expected that before Dong Zhuo enters Beijing, the villages near Luoyang will be able to enjoy a period of comfort.

Whether it was the Silent Alliance led by the Silent Sword or the Han and Tang Alliances led by the Han and Tang Dynasties, the scale of the alliance exceeded three or four hundred villages, and the scale of trade formed was very large. The Liangzhou Xiaobai Alliance currently has more than 1,200 villages, but the total amount of trade between villages is only about the same as that of these two village alliances. It shows the barrenness of Liangzhou and the wealth of Sili.

Sili is the center of the world, and it is also the center of logistics, wealth, and power. The Silent Alliance and the Hantang Alliance have a faint tendency to become the dual cores of the Division. However, Hongnong and Yingchuan are a bit far away, and the two major player village alliances have not yet officially clashed and remain peaceful. When the two sides grow to the point that they can't tolerate each other, it's time to split up your life and death.

Jingzhou.

If you say the most stable place in the world, I am afraid that it is Jingzhou. There is a lot of food, a lot of money, NPC celebrities, masters, hermits, and a lot. Another point is that there are many players, many players like Jingzhou, in addition to touring the mountains and rivers, in case you go to the shit luck and meet an NPC celebrity, it will be developed.

In fact, Jingzhou is indeed a state with the highest probability of players meeting celebrities and celebrities in the world.

A player once counted the posts on the official forum about "triggering NPC Baume & Mercier Quests" and found that 23% of them were encountered in Jingzhou, more than one-fifth of the total, and almost more than double that of other states.

Jingzhou is good at everything, but it lacks a few player characters like Zhan Xiaobai, Silent Sword, and Shengshi Han and Tang Dynasties. There are dozens of player towns in the entire Jingzhou, which are completely in a state of separation. One of the strongest player villages, Season Town, near Gangneung, has more than 100 player villages in the alliance. This used to be the fifth village in the world, but now it can only be ranked in the top 100 of the village and town strength list.

In Jingzhou, the comprehensive strength is not much different from the strength of Ji Town, at least seventeen or eighteen. The strength of Jingzhou's player villages and towns is relatively average, but the total strength of all villages and towns in Jingzhou is estimated to rank among the top three in the world, making it one of the richest states and counties in the world.

Yizhou.

Yizhou is also a state and county with many player wizards. Xiao Ye, one of the few heroines in the middle of the country, led Xiao Ye Town to become the strongest village and town in the entire Chengdu area, famous all over the world. The Little Night Alliance created by it has only more than 200 villages in the alliance, but it is a large village with all "color", and no one can beat its edge.

However, her influence is also limited to the vicinity of Chengdu. Out of Chengdu, it is a zone where many players are strong. Mianyang, Deyang, Bajun, Jiangyang and other places, many hegemonic players.

The Nanban of Yizhou often invaded the system city.

It stands to reason that this is a good opportunity for players to take advantage of the city. However, few players dared to do so. Because Yizhou players are very frightened of Yizhou Mu. Yizhou Mu, Liu Yan, a powerful clan member of the Han family, has outstanding intelligence and a wide range of soldiers.

Yizhou is not a three-way zone like Liangzhou, and the Nanban is not as strong as the Qiang people, who can kill Chang'an and shake Luoyang. Even if the players in Yizhou want to learn from Liangzhou Xiaobai, they must also weigh the consequences. As long as Liu Yan guards Yizhou for a day, no player can move Chengdu City at all, and it is difficult for the system cities of other counties to fall into the hands of players.

Jiaozhou.

Players born in Jiaozhou should be said to be very unlucky. Jiaozhou is the least important state in the world, Jiaozhou is mountainous and jungle, the environment is harsh, the land is barren, the roads are difficult and difficult to pass, if you want to start in Jiaozhou to dominate the world, there is almost no possibility. The villages of Jiaozhou are also the weakest states in the world, and very few are upgraded to towns. Players who started in Jiaozhou may have the opportunity to play sea battles and conquer the Southeast Yang Yi tribe or something.

However, it is precisely because Jiaozhou is not valued by the imperial court, and the imperial court does not have many troops stationed, but it gives players a lot of opportunities.

Jiaozhou Mountain is off-road and brutal, often attacking large and small cities in Jiaozhou. After the battle, although it was useless to break through, the city was inevitably empty. Player leaders look for an opportunity to organize large-scale siege battles.

Since Zhan Xiaobai took Wuwei City, as many as tens of thousands of players in Jiaozhou have launched several siege battles, chanting slogans, "Learn from Xiaobai Boss!" "Little white boss can, so can I!" Kill! "Fight your way into the city. Nanhai, Cangwu, Jiaozhi and other counties have left countless players who have pounced on the follow-up and sacrificed their lives heroically. It's a little regrettable that none of the siege battles have been successful, and all of them have been brutally suppressed by the NPC Taishou of the counties. It seems that the difficulty of capturing the system city is really not ordinarily high.

However, the numerous defeats could not dampen the enthusiasm of the players to attack the city. Capturing a system city has become one of the most dazzling signs of overlordship. As long as there are some ambitions, which one doesn't want to?
