266 Soldiers! Infinite troop streams! (Above)

The meeting between the core players of one town and three villages on the division of labor and cooperation between villages and towns ended and dispersed. The various affairs decided at the meeting are in full swing, industrial adjustment, and NPC personnel transfer. The interests of Xiaobai Town, Wutong Village, Haw Par Village, and Moxiao Village have gradually converged in this division of labor and cooperation.

Because the meeting was highly confidential, and the core players did not leak the "exposed" information to the outside world, the outside world did not know the content of this meeting at all, and ordinary players were more curious, who would be the fourth or fifth..... The Nth joined the Xiaobai Town's sphere of influence and became a subordinate village of Xiaobai Town.

Judging from the overall situation of Wuwei County, it has not yet been found that any player village can match the rapid expansion of Xiaobai Town.

There were a few bored Wuwei County players who conducted a vote count on the forum:

"If you had to choose one of the following players to unify Wuwei County, who would you choose?" Option: A. Xiaobai. B.. Blue Devil tears. D. Batu. F... Eighty-Eighties...... There are more than 40 well-known village mayors in Wuwei County.

The post soared, with nearly 100,000 players voting, and the voting results showed that a large part of the players in Wuwei County preferred to unify Wuwei County by Xiaobai, with a vote rate of 43.27%. The rest of the village mayors received less than 5% of the vote, and some even received less than 0.1%.

Although this vote can't decide anything, it can be seen from it: the expansion of Xiaobaizhen's forces in Wuwei County has not encountered much resistance, and the reason is that many ordinary players do not strongly resist the expansion of Xiaobaizhen's forces.

......

The beginning of January 185 in the game calendar. 100,000 Qiang cavalry rebels fought with the imperial army in Jincheng, under the command of Han Sui, Bian Zhang and other Han generals, killed Chen Yi, the imperial court Jincheng Taishou, conquered Jincheng, and the Qiang cavalry quickly swept the entire Jincheng County. At this point, the Qiang rebels had occupied the two important counties on the main transportation routes of Liangzhou, and if the Qiang marched further north into Wuwei County, it would completely cut off the connection between Liangzhou and the imperial court.

At this critical moment of crisis, Liangzhou Assassin Shi Geng and military Sima Ma Teng led 50,000 imperial court rebel armies and more than 300,000 NPC troops to set off to Jincheng County.

Not only that, but the Qiang people are also mobilizing the player villages in Xiping County and Jincheng County to join the Qiang camp and participate in the big war.

Xiping County is close to Xiqiang, the nest of the Qiang people, so many player villages in this county have already joined the Qiang camp, the most famous of which is Dihuang Town, which not only openly invested in the Qiang camp, but also encouraged a large number of player villages in Xiping County to join the Qiang people. The villages of Xiping County have been heavily Qiangized, and a steady stream of mid- and low-level NPC soldiers have been supplied to the Qiang army.

Jincheng County is now controlled by the Qiang people, and it is only a matter of time before it is Qiangized.

The scale of this battle is huge, and it can be called the first battle in the history of Liangzhou games. Although Liangzhou is in a remote corner, the impact of this battle is extremely huge.

......

After adjusting the industrial and economic layout, Xiaobai Town began to build a Xiaobai army.

The purpose of creating a strong logistics base is to ensure that the army is adequately supplied. An army that is not supplied cannot continue to fight.

In the past, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu competed for dominance in the world, Liu Bang was bound to lose every battle, and Xiang Yu was bound to win every battle. However, Liu Bang has a super terrifying logistics base, and his strength is constantly expanding. Xiang Yu did not have a strong logistics base, and he kept defeating, but his military strength was constantly shrinking. Xiang Yu was dying, and in front of dozens of cavalrymen, he personally killed more than 100 Han pursuers, and he was unstoppable, but unfortunately he still fell into the fate of Wujiang.

The importance of the logistics base can be seen from this: even if it cannot determine the victory of a small battle, it is enough to determine the final victory.

The construction of the base in Xiaobai Town has entered the regular stage, and it will take time to expand. After building a logistics base, it is natural to start expanding the force. The construction of the army in Xiaobaizhen has once again become an important task. Because the military is the most direct and powerful means of annexation. Without a sufficiently strong army, it is difficult to fully protect the interests of Xiaobaizhen.

There are two types of armies in the game: player armies and NPC armies.

There are eighteen players and a thousand-person legion in Xiaobai Town, eight of which are grabbing territory in Wuwei City, and in terms of troops, there are more than ten NPC generals, 20 level 70 tiger knights, 200 level 50 blood cavalry, 50 level 70 archers [elite], and more than 300 NPC soldiers of different levels standing guard in the guard tower, arrow tower, four major town gates, and important locations in the town.

Little White Town does not have many rules and requirements for the player's army, the only mandatory requirement is to obey the command and protect the safety of the village and town in wartime. Usually under the leadership of the corps commander, he trains for leveling, fights for raw materials, fights for power, fights for territory and so on.

Both types of armies have different advantages and disadvantages.

The "advantages" of the player's army: 1. Do not consume food (only consume blood "medicine", physical "medicine", weapons and equipment). 2. Low cost (build an army of players at a lower cost). 3. Can be respawned (the level experience reduced after death, the combat effectiveness can be fully restored in 12 hours.) The cost of the dead is smaller. Player clans can be reused. ）

The "disadvantages" of the player's army: 1. Free and loose, undisciplined. (The upper and lower lines are not fixed, the combat quality is uneven, the weapons used are also strange, and the battle assembly takes a long time.) If you want to start a war, you can't assemble a regular army without a large-scale mobilization of players in advance, and you can only assemble a messy and miscellaneous army. 2. Unclassified (There are more than a thousand players in the war, and there are no secrets in the process. Even if there are no spies sent by the enemy, ordinary players will reveal a lot of war secrets in various ways. ）

The "advantages" of the NPC army: 1. Unified action and discipline (can't go offline, usually stay in the barracks, give an order, and go out at any time 24 hours a day.) Weapons and equipment are highly unified. ）。 2. High secrecy (relative to players).

The "disadvantages" of the NPC army: 1. Consumption of grain and grass (without food and grass, the army is scattered and cannot fight a war. However, grain and grass are strategic materials that are difficult to obtain. So creating an NPC army is a lot of logistical pressure. ）。 2. High cost (the cost of building a NPC1000 cavalry army is quite high, even enough to collapse the economy of a large village). 3. Cannot be respawned (once killed, disappear permanently.) Therefore, NPC armies must be used with caution, otherwise they will suffer heavy losses. ）

Several core leaders of Xiaobai Town also began to think about what size of army would be the most cost-effective.

Zhan Xiaobai asked them for their opinions one by one.

The Spring and Autumn Young Hero sent back his opinion from Wuwei City: "The player army in our town is enough, and we should immediately expand the size of the NPC army, and form one or two NPC thousand-man cavalry legions in a relatively short period of time, which is conducive to long-distance high-secret raids within hundreds of miles, and creates a strong deterrent to those villages and towns that want to confront our town." ”

Ah Fei's opinion: "I want to be the leader of the NPC cavalry legion!" ...... Otherwise, no comment. ”

Ah Fei wants to be the commander of the cavalry corps, and Zhan Xiaobai has no opinion. After all, he only has the most trust in Ah Fei.

Jian Ba's opinion is also simple: "It's okay to expand the NPC army, but the size of the NPC army must be within the range that my town's logistics system can bear...... At most, 600~700 NPC regular cavalry can ensure the normal economic operation of our town. Any more of them will affect my town's economy, and it will be difficult for me to maintain economic expansion while ensuring their logistical supply. ”

Qiushui's opinion: "Recruit a small amount first, see the effect, and then decide." ”

Zhan Xiaobai integrated their (her) opinions and began to recruit NPC cavalry.

In Xiaobai Town, there are three barracks.

Infantry battalion, archery battalion, cavalry battalion, one each, can farm a certain number of NPC soldiers every day. (Town-level player villages, now have a barracks.) This type of barracks is used exclusively for farming, and has no other effect. There is one town, two middle towns, and three large towns. ）

The cavalry battalion in Xiaobai Town is currently the only cavalry battalion owned by a player in the entire player village in the world.

Cavalry battalion: Level 40 Xiliang Iron Cavalry: 50 run/horse. Farm speed: 50 cavalry/day, cavalry accumulation limit in the battalion: 500/500. Two-thirds of the revenue from the recruitment fee went to the town, and one-third of the income automatically went to the imperial court. (To put it bluntly, Zhan Xiaobai paid 50 guan to buy a cavalryman in the town's barracks, and it really only cost one-third of the recruitment cost of 16.67 copper coins, and the remaining two-thirds of the money was returned to Xiaobaizhen's books.) ）

If Zhan Xiaobai does not brush troops in the cavalry battalion, but builds his own bloody cavalry. Level 40 Bloody Soldier (2 Training) + Level 30 War Horse (6~10) + Level 30 Cavalry Set (6 Ranks) ≈14~18 Guards. This price is about the same as the price of buying a Xiliang Iron Cavalry in the cavalry battalion. Moreover, it takes longer to cultivate by yourself, and the bloody cavalry is likely to die in the process of leveling.

Spend 16.6 guan to buy Xiliang Tieqi directly, which is also suitable.

If there is enough money and the barracks keep brushing soldiers, a Xiliang town can farm 18,000 level 40 Xiliang Iron Cavalry (costing 900,000/300,000 copper coins) in a year. This may be a lot for a player village, but it's a small amount for an NPC Grand Warlord.

However, with the comprehensive strength of Xiaobai Town, a super town, it can only feed less than 700~800 Xiliang Iron Riders, and any more will affect the economic operation. If you reach the NPC strength of 2500~3000 cavalry, I am afraid that you will be dragged down by this group of cavalry, and the economy will collapse directly.

If you do the math, it will cost more than 8,330 copper coins to buy 500 Xiliang Iron Riders...... The recruitment fee alone is terrifying, and there is also a steady stream of troop support.

Zhan Xiaobai had a headache, and Xiaobaizhen couldn't come up with such a huge amount of money in a short period of time on his books.

How can you quickly expand the NPC cavalry team?

Zhan Xiaobai suddenly thought of a way - not only Xiaobai Town is rich, but in fact, some players in Xiaobai Town are also very rich. Xiaobaizhen implements a high welfare policy, with high benefits, high wages, and high remuneration, so a lot of wealth is transferred in the hands of players. The wealth in the hands of the players in Xiaobaizhen is not much less than the books of Xiaobaizhen. It allows players to take the financial strain off their shoulders.

Zhan Xiaobai called Shangqiushui, Ah Fei, and a large number of bigwig players in this town, hot-blooded pride, righteous Yuntian, Jing'er, Lingyun, and money all over the world...... And so on hundreds of player captains, deputy captains, backbones, merchant players, rich players, and players who have mastered unique skills, this group of people can be regarded as rich and flowing.

In addition, there are more than ten NPC generals such as Cheng Jian and Wang Gun, who came to the recruitment camp in the town together.

Zhan Xiaobai took out 1,500 guan from the town's financial books and directly recruited 30 Xiliang iron cavalry in the cavalry battalion, and the number of cavalry in the cavalry battalion dropped to 470/500. (Of these, 1,000 guan went back to the town's books, and the actual consumption was 500 kan.) ）

Then Zhan Xiaobai authorized Wang Lance to be the commander of this small cavalry, and led this group of cavalry to the school field to "drill" and see if this group of Xiliang cavalry is good.

Wang Gun didn't say a word, and rode on a horse to the school field in the West District with this batch of Xiliang Tie. After turning around, he came back, his face full of excitement: "Report to my lord, the quality of this batch of Xiliang iron cavalry is good, each of them has mastered at least three skills: equestrianism, spearmanship, riding and archery, and even a few have mastered: sprint, return to the horse gun, throwing 'shooting' guns and other rare skills, all of which have reached the primary and intermediate levels, and they can go directly to the battlefield without too much training." With just a few battles, it is easy to become an elite cavalryman. ”

The rich players in Xiaobai Town nodded their heads around the Xiliang Iron Ride, and they coveted the Xiliang Iron Ride one by one, their eyes were shining, and they couldn't wait to pay for it themselves.

Zhan Xiaobai smiled and said to the players: "It is worthy of the Xiliang Iron Rider, and he is born with so many skills, which is much stronger than the players." I think we should assemble a large army of NPC cavalry in our Little White Town as soon as possible, you see? ”

Qiushui sighed: "It's just that our town's financial accounts are not abundant, and we take out an extra 1,600 yuan every month to recruit 100 Xiliang iron cavalry, and it will only be possible to form a 600 cavalry force in half a year...... This expansion process is too slow, if there is any way to recruit a large number of Xiliang Iron Riders in a short period of time. ”

The players are very shrewd and gradually wake up. Hundreds of their players were summoned here just to get them to do something.

Enthusiastic and proud: "Little white boss, sister Qiushui, look at what you said." There is not enough money on the town's financial books, so don't the brothers have any money in their hands? Which of us doesn't have dozens or hundreds of threads in our hands. Each of us paid for a few cavalry and raised them ourselves, and the total number of Xiliang Iron Cavalry in Xiaobai Town could be increased to four or five hundred at once. ”

The merchant player Qian all over the world also said: "We merchants who often run transportation, and we need cavalry escorts. It's more convenient to buy a few cavalry to carry with you than to hire a player bodyguard. However, the little white boss plans to use this cavalry. ”

When the time was ripe for Zhan Xiaobaijue, he said: "I sell it at a price of 16.66 guan/ride, which is usually used by everyone and must not be resold to players outside this town." Once a war broke out, these Xiliang Iron Cavalry were leased to Xiaobai Town. If your Xiliang Iron Cavalry is killed, I will compensate you according to the original number of Xiliang Iron Cavalry. What do you think of this approach? ”

The players were talking.

Zhan Xiaobai's proposal did not harm their interests. Usually use it yourself, and hand it over to Xiaobaizhen for use during the war, and if you die in the war, you will be compensated according to the original number of cavalry. In other words, they do not bear the risk of Xiliang Tieqi dying in the war, and the risk is borne by Xiaobaizhen, unless Xiaobaizhen is destroyed.

The advantage that Xiaobaizhen got was that there were hundreds of more Xiliang Iron Riders who could go on the expedition, and they didn't have to feed themselves.

Players also get the benefit that they can privately own the unique Western Liang Cavalry in the whole world, and there are many places to come in handy. Leveling, fighting, guards, bodyguards, everything!

In general, both the town and the players can benefit from it, and no one loses.

The matter was roughly agreed.

Hundreds of legion commanders, deputy legion commanders, backbones, merchant players, rich players, and rich players with unique skills in Xiaobai Town can buy 0~10 Xiliang Iron Riders according to their own needs and abilities. Players usually only buy 1~2 rides to decorate the façade, team organizations, chamber of commerce organizations, etc., and it is not a problem to buy 5~10 rides directly.

The remaining 470 Xiliang Iron Cavalry in the cavalry camp were all sold out in one go, and they were evenly distributed to the players in Xiaobai Town. The rest of the Xiaobaizhen players who have not yet bought the Xiliang Iron Cavalry can only wait until tomorrow to buy them, and the cavalry battalion brushes 50 cavalry every day.

Xiaobai Town directly has 500 Xiliang Iron Riders who can be used at any time, and 470 of them are not supported by the town, but by the players themselves. This greatly eased the financial burden on Little White Town.

Coupled with the 20 Tiger Ben, 200 Blood Cavalry, and 30 Xiliang Iron Cavalry directly owned by Xiaobai Town, the entire Xiaobai Town already has up to 720 regular NPC cavalry that can be mobilized.

However, this amount is not enough. Not to mention compared to NPC warlords, this cavalry may not be able to defeat even a large village.

Garrison!

A large number of troops!

The potential of the wealthy players in Xiaobai Town has been tapped out, and at most hundreds of cavalry can be purchased, making it difficult to settle more cavalry. Zhan Xiaobai looked outside.

If you can't stay in your own town, you will go to other villages. Wutong, Tiger and Leopard, Mo Xiao, Daqi, Vertical and Horizontal 、...... A large number of league villages formed a huge group of troops in Xiaobai Town. As a result, the cavalry group controlled by Little White Town will skyrocket. It is necessary to create a cavalry force that can affect the pattern of Wuwei County before the court and the Qiang camp divide the victory.
