254 Blue Devils

In November, after the end of the planting at the beginning of the month, the wars and conflicts continued in the states and counties of the whole system. Fighting a war while building has become the most common situation in the game.

In Wuwei County, one of the most striking clashes these days took place between Warring States Town and Haw Par Village.

The cause of this conflict is believed by many players to be caused by "a fight between the two sides for Wuling iron ore", and it has not been raised to the level of fighting for Wuwei County. Therefore, some village chief players, even thinking that they are big, act as mediators, and want to persuade both sides to stop and stop.

But the real cause of this conflict is still known to a few highly vigilant people. The battle for hegemony has already begun quietly, and the villages and towns that have the conditions to compete for hegemony are all exerting their own secret tricks to set up traps on the hostile villages and towns and weaken the strength of the hostile villages and towns.

......

Players in Wuwei County are speculating who will win the final victory between Warring States Town and Haw Par Village. Most players are optimistic about Warring States Town, after all, Warring States Town has a strong foundation, and it has been upgraded to the level of the town not long ago, and it is only a matter of time before it defeats Tiger and Leopard Village.

However, Haw Par Village is not easy to mess with, a dignified old village, and the "kung fu" foundation is also very deep, but it is not pretending to be good-looking. Although he has suffered losses in the hands of the "first village in the world" several times, it does not mean that he will suffer losses in the hands of the "first hundred villages in the world". The strength of Warring States Town may not be within a hundred in the world.

In the five-day "Great War" between Warring States Town and Haw Par Village, both sides suffered serious losses.

Loss of Warring States Town: 15 caravans, thousands of players, more than 40 elite cavalry, 3 mining fields, and the destruction of trade order...... Comprehensive loss, more than 1000 ~ 1400 guan.

Loss of Haw Par Village: 7 caravans, more than 500 players, more than 30 elite cavalry, and trade order were disrupted...... Comprehensive loss, more than 800 ~ 1000 guan.

These losses, caused in the first five days alone, were enough to cause a disturbance on both sides.

The reason why Haw Par Village has suffered much less losses than Warring States Town is that Warring States Town has a great cause and has been attacked in many ways. The second reason is that Haw Par Village has made a lot of premeditated preparations in advance to reduce its vulnerable places.

Most of the direct property damage on both sides was caused on the first or second day. After that, the two sides quickly adjusted their defensive countermeasures and avoided the expansion of direct losses. The subsequent losses are mainly focused on the destruction of the trade order, resulting in indirect losses - the caravan is difficult to carry out normal trade, the transportation cost is greatly increased, the safety of the village and town is reduced, and the unbearable players are lost to other villages and towns.

The list of losses in Sengoku Town is reported to the council hall every day. After reading the list of losses in the statistics every day, the Warring States World was dizzy with anger, slapping the table and scolding his mother.

The elders and military commanders of Warring States Town were extremely angry and admonished one after another.

The commanders said, "Boss, if this continues, we will be dragged down in less than a month." Let's just fight to the death with Haw Par Village and destroy them. "That's right, with our strength, we will gather the military strength of a few more alliance villages to form an army of 10,000, and we will press the realm and destroy it!" "Face off against Haw Par Village and solve it once and for all."

Although the elders are usually reluctant to use troops, they can't care about it at this time, and said, "We agree, even if we don't make a big campaign in the end, it is better to threaten Haw Par Village with the army, and we can't let them be arrogant." "Why don't we use diplomatic means to 'force' Haw Par Village to stop the 'disturbance' operation?" "How do you 'force' it?" "Threat, if he doesn't stop again, let's fight him to the death, see if he's afraid!" "What if you're not afraid?" "Then let's fight, are we still afraid that they won't succeed?"

Things have come to this point, and only force can solve the problem once and for all.

In the council hall of Warring States Town, there was a lot of noise and arguments for a while.

The Warring States World looked at the elders and military commanders who were arguing in the hall with a calm face. He also wants to have a hearty military Armageddon with Haw Par Village, but the question is, can a military Armageddon destroy Haw Par Village?

There are two ways to solve the problem by force: one is a heads-up and the other is a group fight.

1. Warring States Town VS Haw Par Village. The strength ratio between Warring States Town and Haw Par Village is about 2:1, and the gap has not reached an absolute level. Damage 1000 enemies and self-damage 800.

2. Warring States Town Alliance Village VS Haw Par Village. There are already more than a dozen large villages within the Warring States Town Alliance. The combined military strength is more than 10 times that of Haw Par Village. With tens of thousands of troops dispatched at one time, they can easily wipe out Haw Par Village.

The first scenario is heads-up: Warring States Town VS Haw Par Village.

The foundation of Haw Par Village is indeed a cut behind Warring States Town, and it can't beat Warring States Town alone, but the problem is that Haw Par Village has the support of Xiaobai Town behind it. Moreover, this kind of conflict is not so much a contest of military strength as a contest of logistics. To fight a war is to fight logistics. There is no blood 'medicine' in Tiger and Leopard Village, the war horses are lost, the weapons and armor are not enough, the bows and arrows are not enough, and there is a steady stream of input from Xiaobaizhen behind. Haw Par Village is clearly cheating. The final result of the heads-up will be the end of Xiaobai Town and Haw Par Village, which will join forces to bring down Warring States Town.

The second scenario is a group fight: Warring States Town Alliance Village VS Haw Par Village.

If he gathers the alliance villages and towns in the north of Warring States Town, he will march into Hubao Village in a big way. Then it will not only be a village in Haw Par Village, but a larger alliance army in the south of Xiaobai Town, led by Xiaobai Town, Haw Par Village, Wutong Village, etc. The situation will evolve into the Warring States Town Alliance VS the Little White Town Alliance.

Once the two sides face off in an all-out showdown, it is difficult to say who will destroy whom.

Labor expeditions, the Warring States World has no certainty of victory, and I don't want to lose my own capital at once. Xiao Bai's side definitely didn't want to enter the all-out Armageddon now, otherwise he wouldn't have instigated Haw Par Village to make a shady move.

The Warring States World rests on the mayor's throne and repeatedly considers various gains and losses. The chess piece in Haw Par Village is too ruthless, and the key now is how to abolish Xiaobai's chess piece.

After a while, he said, "Everyone, I have decided to make some concessions in exchange for the cessation of military disturbances in Haw Par Village. As for making concessions in those areas, I said while negotiating with Haw Par Village. However, this must first stop the military disturbance in Haw Par Village. ”

The commanders immediately objected eagerly and loudly, "Boss, you must not back down at this critical time!" Once they back down, they will have to make an inch, and they will offer a higher price in the future. They must be treated with the toughest attitude! "Our alliance village is also watching our attitude, and if we retreat, they will also be very disappointed in us, and they will retreat and no longer dare to be an enemy of Xiaobai Town. That's the end of it! ”

The attitude of the elders was a little milder, "It's okay for us to negotiate with Xiaobai, and we don't necessarily have to make concessions." You can let them withdraw their troops first, talk slowly, and drag it out. I'm trying to find a way to solve it completely. "The losses are too great now, and the losses have accumulated as much as 1,000 yuan, so let's slow down first."

Warring States World, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "The real loss is not just a property loss of 1,000 or 1,500 yuan. If the loss exceeds a certain amount, the village will automatically lose the power to fight for supremacy. Haw Par Village, this is going to drag us down together! If we don't solve the problem of Haw Par Village today, a month later, our town and Haw Par Village will degenerate into a second-rate powerful village together, and there will be no capital to compete with Xiaobai Town for Wuwei County. ”

The elders and military commanders were speechless for a moment and shut up.

The diplomatic envoy from Sengoku Town set out again, but instead of going to Haw Par Village, to Xiaobai Town, and sent a request: "Let Haw Par Village cease fire immediately, Sengoku Town is willing to make concessions in terms of certain interests in exchange for peace." ”

However, the "grievances and requests" of Warring States Town did not receive Xiaobai Town's sympathy and understanding.

Zhan Xiaobai sneered, he was not stupid, he wanted to exchange a little benefit? . , his reply is still very clear: "Haw Par Village is not affiliated with Xiaobai Town, and the contradictions between the two of you will be resolved by yourself!" It is hoped that the two sides will not escalate the situation and trigger a full-scale conflict in Wuwei County. ”

The implication of this is: You can save your worries, the two sides continue to fight, let's watch a good show while eating melon seeds, and when you two boxers are tired, I won't be late to play. You must not engage in a big war, otherwise it will be a decisive battle for the entire Wuwei County, not just a war between your two villages and towns.

When the Warring States received the reply, he was so angry again that he almost vomited blood. ※…… %¥, it's too much of a deception! He ran into a wall on Zhan Xiaobai's side, and sent people to Haw Par Village, wanting to see if he could separate the relationship between Haw Par Village and Xiaobai Town, so that Haw Par Village would not be used and instigated by Xiaobai to oppose Warring States Town.

As long as the chess piece of Haw Par Village is dissolved, everything can return to normal.

It's a pity that the Warring States World didn't know about the agreement reached between Haw Par Village and Xiaobai Town, otherwise the idea of discord would have been broken. The envoy of Warring States Town ran into a wall again, but was categorically rejected by Haw Par Village.

The Warring States World was stunned and didn't understand why Haw Par Village was so willing to be used by Xiaobai Town, and even willing to sacrifice himself to abolish his Warring States Town. If Haw Par Village is not used by Xiaobai like this, Xiaobai will also be helpless to take him to Warring States Town.

The Warring States wanted to pick out a large village willing to sacrifice itself from its alliance villages, and also went to "Sao" to disturb and obstruct Xiaobai Town, but there was no such a large village that was "willing to make self-sacrifice".

......

"All Wuwei County System News: Blue Devil Village, officially upgraded to Blue Devil Town."

The villages of Wuwei County were shocked.

The little-known Blue Devil Village actually became the third village to be upgraded to a town after Xiaobai and Warring States Town. Of course, it is natural to become the third village and town that is qualified to compete for martial arts.

The upgrade of Blue Devil Town gave Zhan Xiaobai a little headache, and made the Warring States world overjoyed - finally there was an ally of enough weight to contain Xiaobai.

......

Outside the gate of Warring States Town, the guards hurriedly came in, "Report!" Blue Devil tears begging to see. ”

The Warring States world happily rushed out to greet them.

Blue Devil Tears have entered the administrative compound.

The Warring States World laughed and greeted him: "Haha, Blue Devil brother, you are really interesting!" I haven't been seen for more than half a month, and I don't even have anyone to discuss big things! ”

The Blue Devil laughed with tears: "I can't help it." Since I lost the territory of Wuwei City, I have no base area, so I have learned the lesson of the past, and I must get a safe village base area. At that time, I arranged for a group of master brothers to build a village in a safe place, lay a solid industrial foundation, and accumulate strength. No, as soon as I raised the town, I came to visit you, brother! ”

The Warring States World led the Blue Devil Tears into the council hall and ordered the left and right to retreat.

"Brother Blue Devil, you are really here today. If you don't, I don't know what to do. You see, this Haw Par Village.... ％￥＃％￥.... How to break this game? (Whispering.)

"Brother Warring States, I've been paying attention to the situation here for the past few days. Xiaobai is too ruthless to you, we must also give him a ruthless trick in order to make him retreat. You see, over here...&*%$...." (whispering.)

......

When the Warring States World and Blue Devil Tears were secretly discussing how to deal with Zhan Xiaobai, Zhan Xiaobai was seizing the time to seize the Jiang Clan's "Lu" Tian Iron Mine.

He did not come forward himself, but by the Jiang village.

You must know that if Zhan Xiaobai comes forward by himself, the players must be wary and worried that there is a conspiracy in it, which will lead to great resistance. When the Jiang village comes forward, the player's vigilance will drop a lot, and the resistance will be much less.

Jiang Hu and Jiang Ti led an elite army of NPC cavalry of more than 200 people near the iron mine, and wantonly claimed that the iron mine belonged to the property of Jiang's village, and anyone could only mine it with the consent of Jiang's village, otherwise they were not allowed to mine without authorization.

Jiang's village suddenly became interested in iron ore, which made the player villages in that area very confused. You must know that Jiang's village has always been very low-key, and does not compete with players for territory and interests.

In addition, although there are few people in Jiang's village, they are very strong in terms of force, and the defense is like an iron bucket. In the absence of a large number of siege equipment, attacking Jiang's village would result in heavy losses. So it doesn't offend the player, and the player won't offend it easily, and it's always safe.

Jiang's village suddenly wants an entire iron mine, which surprises players in the surrounding area. Some players are even wondering if this will be a system task.

Whether this is a task or not, it is not yet known.

But Zhan Xiaobai's selling dog meat with a sheep's head really bluffed many people.

Under the vigorous advocacy of Jiang's village, Jiang's village took the lead in forming a Jiang's iron ore alliance, which put forward an initiative: rational development of Jiang's iron mine, prohibition of indiscriminate mining, and ensure that all villages can use Jiang's iron mine for a long time.

Iron ore mines do have serious overmining practices, which will be detrimental to nearby players in the long run.

This initiative of Jiang Village seems to protect the interests of all players and villages in that area, and there is no reason to oppose it.

Since there is no reason to object, then join in! Therefore, after consultation, the player villages in that area agreed to this proposal and decided to join the Jiang Iron Ore Alliance. The large and small villages that joined the alliance soon exceeded more than forty. Almost all the villages in the vicinity of Jiang's iron ore mine have joined the alliance. Even some villages that are far away from Jiang's Iron Mine and mainly obtain iron ore from this iron mine, including Perfect Village, Batu, Moxiao Village, and even Xiaobai Town, have also taken the initiative to join this alliance.

Who is the leader of the Iron Ore Alliance?

No one in the player village obeys anyone, and some small villages propose to let Zhan Xiaobai serve as the leader of this alliance, but they are strongly opposed by several large village chiefs such as Perfect Girl, Batu, and Mo Xiaofeng, and they don't want their iron ore source to be controlled by Xiaobai Town. Once the source of iron ore is controlled by Xiaobaizhen, they will have to send people to the fence in the future.

Let's ask NPC Jiang Huai to serve as the old village chief. This NPC village chief has always been prestigious, and everyone is unanimously the most reassured. Zhan Xiaobai was the most relieved, because his two cavalry were stationed in Jiang's village.

In addition, each player village has one vote and has decision-making power over the affairs of the Jiang Iron Ore Alliance.

NPC Jiang Huai became the leader of the Iron Ore Alliance.

At the behest of someone, he pursued several policies: rectifying the mining farms, cutting, pressing, reducing production, inspecting, and rationalizing the use of them. A series of measures, in a word, are to continuously reduce the iron ore output of Jiang's iron ore and continuously raise the price of iron ore.

Within the Jiang's Iron Ore Alliance, they began to quarrel over the increase in the price of iron ore.

These will be mentioned slowly.

At this time, two of the five largest "Lu" Tian Iron Ore deposits in the hinterland of Wuwei County: Jiang's "Lu" Tian Iron Mine and the downstream "Lu" Tian Iron Mine, iron ore prices have begun to rise. The Warring States "Lu" Tian Iron Mine was also seriously disturbed by the Haw Par Village, resulting in a significant reduction in iron ore production and an increase in prices.

As soon as these major producing areas rose, the price of iron ore in the entire market naturally gradually rose with the tide, and it did not rise by one or two points.

Under someone's careful direction, the cheap period of iron ore in Wuwei County has ended, and the high price period has officially arrived. Any village in Wuwei County that wants to buy a large quantity of iron ore in the market must pay a higher price.
