284 New Three Gate Valves

Wuwei City, the first military city in Liangzhou in the game, has the primary purpose of guarding the Hexi Corridor militarily. The NPC population in the city is as high as 300,000, and it has extremely strong city wall defense, large and complete building complexes, a highly sound military culture system, and developed handicraft manufacturing capabilities. Moreover, this border military city once had a terrifying force of up to 20,000 heavy armor and 10,000 heavy cavalry, which could easily resist the siege of hundreds of thousands of troops.

Before February 15, 185 in the game calendar, the city was completely controlled by NPCs and belonged to the imperial court.

If there was no rebellion in Jincheng led by Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou in the army of 100,000 Qiang, if there was no Liangzhou Assassin Shi Geng Wei to lead the troops of the six northwestern counties of Liangzhou to encircle and suppress the Qiang rebels, and if there was no rebellion of Ma Teng and Han Sui, Wuwei City would not have the slightest possibility of changing hands when the army was abundant.

The turmoil in Liangzhou caused a rapid decline in the strength of Wuwei City, and the army was extremely empty.

Of course, even if Wuwei City is very empty, it is not something that can be easily taken by any player force.

Six thousand level 70 heavy armor guards the city, and ordinary player forces have no chance to challenge at all.

In terms of game progression, this is still the early stage of the game, and it is not the best time for players to launch a city grab. This kind of emptiness, only the Ma Teng troops, the Ma Play troops, and even the NPC warlord forces, including the Qiang people, have a chance to enter Wuwei City. Ma Tengjun, who was repairing on the border of Wuwei County, only needed half a month to return to capture Wuwei City and become the master of Wuwei County.

Zhan Xiaobai took advantage of the short favorable opportunity when the NPC warlord forces had not yet arrived in Wuwei City, and with his strong military strength and mobilization ability, he quickly organized more than 30 players and 1,000 legions in the alliance to capture Wuwei City first.

This military operation was almost in the middle of the fire, very risky, but fortunately it was largely successful. All that remains to be done is to restore the management of Wuwei City as soon as possible and ensure that Wuwei City is always in their own hands.

To manage such an NPC city, it is impossible to complete it without the assistance of NPC talents.

Zhan Xiaobai looked at the system time, it was already close to evening, and there was less than an hour left, Ma Min and Zhang Lin, the two NPC generals, would return to Wuwei City with as many as two thousand heavy armor soldiers, and they must deal with the gate lord clan in the city before they brought the troops back. Otherwise, it will inevitably be another military conflict.

Zhan Xiaobai gave the three gate valves and hundreds of NPC officials half incense time to consider whether to take refuge in themselves.

Time is passing little by little.

The sky leopard standing behind him looked indifferent. He had already ordered the killing of a few NPC officials who were not convinced, and he didn't care about killing a few more.

The young man of the Spring and Autumn Period, holding his sword on one side, looked at the NPCs in the hall.

Ah Fei, with a grin, whispered something to a few player captains.

NPC general, with a serious demeanor.

Soon, the time of the half-pillar incense has passed, and it cannot be delayed indefinitely.

According to Zhan Xiaobai's instructions, Tianbao stepped forward and said: "Fellow martial artists, for the safety of the city and your safety, everyone should make a decision quickly!" Now, please also ask the three gate valves to take a stand. ”

There was a chill down the back of the NPC bureaucrats, and they knew that this was not an empty word. These people in front of them are very ruthless.

The patriarch of the Zhang clan, an NPC old man dressed in a gorgeous costume, said in a deep voice: "Lord Xiaobai, Taishou was killed by the Qiang assassins, and we are deeply saddened. However, the city cannot be left without an owner for a day, and only the adults in my Wuwei City can convince everyone if they serve as the new Taishou. I, Zhang's up and down, absolutely support adults. ”

The patriarch of the Zhang clan not only officially recognized Zhan Xiaobai's status as a martial power taishou, but also tacitly acquiesced that Taishou was killed by the Qiang assassins, and got rid of Zhan Xiaobai's involvement. It's a little flattery.

Zhan Xiaobai is satisfied. Zhang's gate valve was still knowledgeable about affairs and decided to take refuge in himself. Zhang Feng has already been appointed as the captain, and in fact, there is no need for the Zhang family to go against him.

Zhang's surrender caused the position of all NPC bureaucrats to waver.

Jia An groaned for a moment and made a decision. On behalf of the Jia clan, he stepped forward and said, "I, a member of the Jia clan, am willing to obey the orders of Lord Taishou." ”

The Jia clan descended again, and the NPC bureaucrats and small scholars finally stopped insisting and asked for the official to be inaugurated.

It seems that the NPC bureaucrats and gate lords seem to understand the truth that those who know the times are heroes. The city has been controlled by Zhan Xiaobai's player legion, and the military power of the Governor's Mansion has also fallen into Zhang Feng's hands, and resistance will not play much role.

In the entire hall, only the Ma clan and a few small scholars insisted on not falling. In the words of the patriarch of the Ma clan, "Unless the Zhang family is removed and a member of the Ma clan is appointed as the captain, there is no need to talk about it." ”

Zhan Xiaobai sneered, most of the officials have been lowered, it doesn't matter if your Ma family is lowered or not.

.....

An hour later, the NPC military general Ma Min led a thousand troops back to Wuwei City. He went around the northwest for half a circle, and found no trace of the 1,000 "Sao" harassing cavalry played by horses, and felt that something was wrong. It's not good, Wuwei City may change, so he hurriedly led his troops back in a hurry.

But when he returned to the outside of Wuwei City, he saw that the banner of the imperial court was still fluttering at the head of Wuwei City, and there were many soldiers with guns and heavy armor on the head of the city, and there was no sign of chaos. He shouted a few times at the head of the city, and found that the city guard was still the original city guard, and he was also relieved.

Open the city, dismount, and enter the city.

Several NPC generals and more than a dozen soldiers on both sides of the city gate immediately pounced and tied up the confused Ma Min. Ma Min was transferred by the Governor's Mansion, relieved of his official position and military power, and sent to the Taishou Mansion, where he was placed under house arrest.

Zhang Lin returned to Wuwei City and was treated better. Although he was also relieved of his military powers, he was not placed under house arrest and went home to rest.

The NPC soldiers under their two hands were reorganized into the Governor's Mansion.

The number of guards in Wuwei City rose to 5,100 (4,100 heavy cavalry, 1,000 heavy cavalry), plus 2,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry. This powerful force can temporarily ensure the safety of Wuwei City. Unless Ma Teng or Ma Play is attacking in a big way.

.....

Zhan Xiaobai then rearranged the status of the Wuwei Sect lord clan.

Recruit a large number of Zhang clan members, enter the Governor's Mansion to serve as military generals of all levels of high, middle and low ranks, completely suppress the Ma clan, and abolish the influence of the Ma clan in the NPC bureaucracy. Immediately requisitioned the sons of the Jia clan to serve as the chief historian, the chief bookkeeper, and other important civil official positions.

What shocked all NPCs and players the most was that Zhan Xiaobai ordered Jiang Wei, the old village chief of Jiangjia Village, to serve as Wuwei Gongcao, and recruited the young children of the Jiang clan to serve as civil and military officials at all levels.

The Jiang clan is a Tianshui clan, and the population of Jiangjia Village is not large, but most of its children are NPCs with names and surnames, and there are many talented people.

Dozens of sons of the Jiang clan entered Wuwei City to take up official positions, partially replacing the influence of the three major gates.

Regarding Zhan Xiaobai's requisition order, Jiang Huai was powerless to refuse, so he reluctantly agreed.

The Zhang family, the Jia family, and the Jiang family formed the new three major gate forces in Wuwei City and contained each other.

And the Ma's gate valve is deeply rooted in the entire Liangzhou, and Zhan Xiaobai doesn't want to go too far, so he simply "giftes" them to leave Wuwei City. lest they cause trouble in Wuwei City.

Woo Wuwei Gate Valve for their own use, Jia's Gate Valve, Zhang's Gate Valve, requisition Jiang's family, bundle interests, and send Ma's Gate Valve to leave Wuwei. In just three or four days, Zhan Xiaobai tied most of the bureaucrats in Wuwei City to his own interests.

Zhan Xiaobai at least doesn't have to worry about waking up one night, and suddenly the NPC officials under his command have all defected.

Rewarding players for their merits is also a necessary part of the post-war period.

The upper and lower levels of Xiaobai Town, as well as the alliance villages of Xiaobai Town, will be benefited. These benefits are distributed according to the pre-agreed conditions.

Wuwei City returned to normal order.

Zhan Xiaobai sent an envoy to Luoyang to submit to the imperial court with documents for receiving martial arts and seeking official appointments.

......

At the same time, on the entire battlefield of Liangzhou, the Qiang rebels used the pretext of crusading against the eunuchs to enter Kou Sanfu and invade the garden. Sikong Zhang Wen, the general Dong Zhuo, the ruling Jinwu Yuan Peng, and the "dang" Kou general Zhou Shen led an army of 100,000 imperial courts, and the Qiang rebels led by Han Sui and Bian Zhang encountered in Meiyang, and the most tragic battle broke out.

The Qiang soldiers were fierce and brave, and their morale was strong, and they fought and won successive battles under the leadership of Han Sui and Bian Zhang. The imperial army was led by four NPC generals, but they suffered a heavy blow.

The tide of the battle is not in favor of the 'government' forces.

It just so happened that the death of "Wuwei City Taishou died", and Xiaobai led Wuwei Taishou by himself, and the documents of the court asking for officials were sent to the court, which was a "heavy" blow to the court. Following the Qiang people, Ma Teng, etc., Wuwei County also changed.

The court panicked and became "chaotic".

The loyal NPC ministers wrote to Emperor Ling one after another, shouting loudly: "Since the founding of the Eastern Han Dynasty, no minister has dared to appoint an official position for himself. This is contempt for the authority of the imperial court, and this precedent must not be opened, otherwise it will cause great "chaos" in the world! ”

Fortunately, there are also a few ministers who are not dizzy, and they hurriedly wrote to Emperor Ling, "Don't be guilty!" When Xiaobai was in danger, he led Wuwei Taishou, which was a manifestation of his loyalty to the imperial court, in order to protect the safety of Wuwei County and not fall into the hands of Ma Teng, Han Sui and other thieves, otherwise he could simply learn from Ma Teng to rebel "chaos", why bother to ask for officials? If he is punished, who else in the world dares to fight to the death for the imperial court? I'm afraid that it will chill the hearts of the courtiers in the world! ”

"What is the difference between Xiaobai's move and traitors such as Ma Teng and Han Sui? Please also ask Your Majesty to issue a decree to cure Xiaobai's rebellious crime! ”

"Once 'forced' to rebel and unite with Ma Teng, Han Sui and others, Liangzhou will die! Your Majesty think twice! ”

"Traitors and thieves, be a heavy soldier to fight against them! Otherwise, everyone will take this as an example, what kind of system will the court become? ”

"Xiaobai's self-leadership is a way to respond to emergencies. The imperial court should allow him to keep his official position, and order him to unite with the imperial court to exterminate the traitors in Liangzhou, which is the best policy. How can you "force" them to rebel? ”

The ministers of the court were divided into two factions at once, and they quarreled fiercely over whether to cure Xiaobai's crime of leading Wuwei Taishou, and the quarrels were red and full of righteous indignation.
