"System prompt: Congratulations to the player Lieyang, the reinforcement Yizhou Liu Dan has made substantial progress, and obtained the remnant of the Xishu topographic map (1/16), and after gathering 16 copies, you can complete the Xishu topographic map.

At the same time, you can choose to withdraw at any time and receive the final reward. The final reward will be positively correlated with the progress made by the reinforcement Liu Dan, and the greater the progress, the higher the level of reward......"

Yang Rui has always been puzzled about the task reward, after he first helped Liu Dan capture Jiangzhou, Yang Rui should be able to obtain the remnants of the Xishu topographic map one after another, and there is also a final reward.

The level of the final reward is also directly related to the effectiveness of the reinforcements, but it is still unclear what kind of reward it is.

However, when Yang Rui saw a fragment of a topographic map of Xishu that he obtained, his interest in continuing to reinforce Liu Dan suddenly increased. It's just because the content shown in the fragment of the topographic map of Xishu is too detailed.

In fact, it is not just a topographic map, if it involves only a topographic map of Xishu presented by Zhang Song in historical facts, only the terrain of Xishu, cities and roads, etc., it does not have much meaning for Yang Rui.

Yang Rui owns Sky City, and it is not a hassle to figure out the relevant content, at least for now.

In addition to the above contents, the map also shows in detail the distribution of population, land thickness, forest land distribution, mineral resources and other resources in the relevant area.

It can be said that from the various things that can be seen on the surface to the minerals that cannot be seen underground, there are more detailed displays in the map, which are simply like the ones depicted by the real resource satellite, and the value is remarkable.

The only pity is that what Yang Rui got at this time was only a residual map, although the labels were very detailed and clear, but it was a drawing that did not indicate that it was the area of Xishu, and it should only be possible to view the final complete topographic map of Xishu in detail if 16 residual maps were gathered.

Not to mention the final reward of reinforcements, just such a drawing has made Yang Rui very interested, if he can get a complete topographic map of Xishu, it will be of great benefit to the development and utilization of the Xishu region!

Half a day after capturing Jiangzhou, Yang Rui ordered Han Dai to garrison 50,000 soldiers and horses, and only waited for Shen Mi and Lou Fa to come to change the defense, so he used the Sky City with Liu Dan again to return in the direction of Jiaoguan, preparing to capture Tongxian, Hanping and even Fuling and other places all the way, and take advantage of the situation to defeat Zhao Wei on the way back.

As for the process of capturing Jiangzhou, it did not experience too fierce battles, although Jiangzhou is a large county town, but the process of Yang Rui and Liu Dan taking it was not completely achieved by brute force.

At that time, Yang Rui and Liu Dan rushed to the east gate of Jiangzhou, opened the posture and set up 100 heavy trebuchets to attack a few rounds, and when the city gate was not damaged much, someone in the city had already recognized Liu Dan's identity.

Obviously, Liu Dan still has some influence in Jiangzhou City, and it is obvious that some people in the defenders are more willing to accept Liu Dan, which caused a period of infighting among the defenders in the city, and the gate of the city attacked by Yang Rui was not opened from the inside.

The rest of the matter is very simple, under the banner of Liu Dan, Yang Rui commanded the troops into the city, and soon swept away some of the defenders in the city who refused to obey, and took over Jiangzhou City, and the losses of Yang Rui's troops were very limited in the whole process.

Of course, to be able to capture Jiangzhou so lightly, Liu Dan's influence in this place is only one of the factors, and the size and combat power of Yang Rui's troops are also very important influencing factors, at least giving enough deterrence to the wavering people in the defenders, so as to finally lead to the occurrence of infighting among the defenders in the city.

If only Liu Dan came with a small number of troops, even if his influence on the Jiangzhou region was not low, the probability of the Jiangzhou defenders opening the city gate for him was almost zero, which was the role of the situation.

It is worth mentioning that because Yang Rui and Liu Dan are in the same camp, Jiangzhou City was nominally owned by Liu Dan after it was captured, and all the property in the city was the same.

Unless Yang Rui gives up the task of reinforcing Liu Dan, he will break with him at this time, no matter from the perspective of the task or prestige, Yang Rui is unwilling to do so.

However, it is said that Yang Rui cooperated with Liu Dan all the way, and successively took two county towns belonging to the Ba County region, and the situation of the two counties was similar to that of Ba County, and the defenders in the city were forced to take the initiative to sacrifice the city to Liu Dan under the pressure of Yang Rui's army.

For these two newly acquired county seats, because they all took the initiative to donate the city, Liu Dan still continued to use the original public officials of the two places to take charge of each other, and Yang Rui also did not divide troops to garrison.

In addition to his family, Yang Rui did not bring any generals, and at this time, the only people with experience and ability to command troops were Zhang Ning, Han Dai, and Ding Yao, so although Yang Rui's troops were sufficient, there was an extreme shortage of generals, and he couldn't draw extra manpower at all.

After taking the two county towns one after another, the remnants of the topographic map of Xishu that Yang Rui coveted did not appear, and the system prompt of the reinforcement mission did not appear again, thinking that it should be caused by the insufficient level or number of cities taken.

After a game day, Yang Rui was already operating the Sky City near the junction of Ba County and Fuling County, according to Yang Rui's estimation and original observation, if Zhao Yun's army went straight to Hanzhong, the place where it was based, it should be in the nearby area at this time.

After a small half a day of searching, Yang Rui and Liu Dan finally used Sky City to discover the whereabouts of Zhao Wei's defeated army, and once again ambushed them in advance on the way they must pass, defeating and scattering Zhao Wei's troops again.

There are many mountains in Yizhou, and the ambush is naturally done lightly, and the number of Zhao Yun's army does not exceed 50,000, and it did not take much effort to defeat it again under the ambush, and even the Zhao Yun troops who finally escaped are very limited.

It's just that Yang Rui and the others didn't see Zhao Wei from beginning to end, or they had already returned to Hanzhong in advance and did not act with the rout.

After this battle, Zhao Wei's troops have completely lost the strength to fight again, and there is no major threat to the surrounding area, Yang Rui and Liu Dan continue to push away quickly, and they can win a city at a small cost.

"System Prompt: Congratulations to the player Lieyang, the reinforcement Yizhou Liu Dan has made substantial progress, and obtained the remnant of the Xishu topographic map (2/16), and after gathering 16 copies, you can complete the Xishu topographic map ......"

And when Yang Rui helped Liu Dan capture the third county seat, he once again obtained a fragment of the topographic map of Xishu, so Yang Rui also probably figured out the conditions for obtaining it. (To be continued.) )
