337 Return to Little White Town

Zhan Xiaobai sent people to place a hundred NPC herdsmen and two hundred domesticated steppe wolves in Lu Shan and Lu Village's small village in the military horse farm. The ten beast pens that imprison the Blood Wolf King are specially guarded by NPCs.

Lu Shan was appointed as the chief horse trainer and wolf trainer of the five Shandan Royal Military Horse Farms.

In the next three or four days, Zhan Xiaobai and Lu Shan carefully studied the details of the formation of the "Blood Wolf Ride": how much cost it would cost, the combat effectiveness after forming the Blood Wolf Ride, and the "sex" price ratio. These details are directly related to the scale of the formation of the "Blood Wolf Ride" in the future, and whether it is cost-effective.

They specially used 1 light cavalry and 1 blood wolf cavalry for the experiment.

From a cost point of view,

A "Beginner Blood Wolf Rider", which consists of 1 level 30 ordinary soldier (1 run), 1 level 30 low-grade war horse (2 runs), 1~3 level 20 blood wolves (1 pass ~ 3 runs), a complete set of level 30 standard light armor sets including "helmets, armor, bracers, boots, belts" (1 run), a level 30 iron gun (200 copper), a pair of level 30 iron tire bows and quivers (500 bronze), and a set of harness (1 run).

According to the number of blood wolves, the total cost of a beginner blood wolf ride is 6.8~8.8.

The total cost of forming a light cavalry with the same configuration, but without a blood wolf, is 5.8 guan.

(The above costs are based on market standard prices.) If recruited directly from the Barracks, the Level 30 Hussar costs 30 per cavalry, which is nearly 6 times higher than the player's own configuration. ）

From the point of view of combat effectiveness,

It is assumed that a level 30 hussar has a combat strength of 1. A well-trained level 20 ordinary blood wolf, with a combat strength of about 1/3 of the light cavalry, which is 0.3.

The combat power of a "1 Light Rider + 1 Blood Wolf = 1 Blood Wolf Rider" is 1.5. "1 Light Rider + 2 Blood Wolves = 1 Blood Wolf Rider" has a combat power of 2.2. "1 Light Cavalry + 3 Blood Wolves = 1 Blood Wolf Cavalry" combat power is 3.

(In the case of cooperation, the combat effectiveness exerted by "1 light horse + 1 blood wolf" is not a simple addition, but a more "colorful" combat effectiveness.) 1＋0.3≠1.3。 1＋0.3≈1.5。 Similarly, the combat effectiveness of "1 light horse + 2 blood wolf" is about ≈ 2.2. ）

Therefore, the combat effectiveness of a blood wolf cavalry is 1.5~3 times that of a "light cavalry". The price-to-price ratio is as high as 1.28~2.56. [Light Cavalry Cost/Blood Wolf Cavalry Cost× (1.5~3)]

In this way, the results of the comparison come out. That is to say, at the same cost, the combat effectiveness of the "Blood Wolf Cavalry" is 1.28~2.56 times that of the "Light Cavalry".

A Blood Wolf Rider with 3 Blood Wolves is the upper limit, and any more Blood Cavalry will not be able to control the actions of the Blood Wolves. If it weren't for this limitation, I'm afraid that the combat power of 1 Blood Wolf Rider would be even more terrifying, and the "sex" price ratio would be higher. Of course, the more blood wolves a blood wolf can ride, the more meat consumed on a daily basis will also double, and the logistics supply cost will be very large, which will offset the "sex" price ratio advantage of the blood wolf ride to a certain extent.

Fortunately, there is a lack of everything in the grassland of the Dama camp, that is, there is no shortage of forage and beast herds, so let the blood wolf catch the beasts to eat. Except for the meat that needs to be fed to the blood wolves during the war, there is no need for meat in normal times, and the cost of logistics and supply tends to be infinitely zero.

The beginner "Blood Wolf Rider" has a greater advantage over the "Light Cavalry".

As for the super-level "Blood Wolf Ride", the configuration is extremely high: level 50 Blood Wolf King, level 50 best soldier, level 50 best war horse, level 50 cavalry suit. The combat power is enough to compete with the first-class units in the game.

The task of forming a "Blood Wolf Ride" was pressed on Lu Shan's body.

In this royal military horse farm, the conditions are far superior to those of the Xiqiang grassland. It is not difficult in theory to form a "blood wolf ride" to have money, people to have people, and horses to have horses, so it is not difficult in theory to form a "blood wolf ride". The war horses, blood wolves, and equipment of the Little White Alliance are all bred by themselves, and the cost can be reduced to a minimum.

What made Zhan Xiaobai a little excited, after his mount Wild Horse King and more than a dozen mares were bred, the dozen or so foals he gave birth to were all high-grade foals of level 0, and none of them were low-grade or medium-grade. Ordinary stallions and mares breed many of them are low-grade and medium-grade foals, and very few are high-grade.

It seems that the better the breed of the horse you bred, the better the calves you will bring.

He specially instructed Lu Shan to use the best horses for breeding in the future and eliminate those inferior horses. Lu Shan wrote them down one by one.

Mid-October.

After Zhan Xiaobai arranged the breeding of war horses in the military horse farm and the preparation for the construction of the "Blood Wolf Ride", he left Zhangye and returned to Wuwei County with a group of players' personal guards.

After staying in Zhangye County for nearly two months, the various alliances of all sizes in Zhangye County basically have no intention of rebelling, and there is no need for him to stay here forever. Leaving Jiang Jiong and Jiang Xu to lead the NPC legion to defend Zhangye City, and Ah Fei to lead ten legions of Xiaobai Alliance players to defend Shandan Town, these two military forces are fast enough to defeat any Zhangye Alliance force. The Shandan Royal Military Horse Farm is guarded by five NPC Qiang generals under Jiang Xu, and has thousands of rapid reaction cavalry. The five player alliances around the grassland are all thinking about how to raise war horses to make a profit, and they will never easily offend the Xiaobai Alliance.

Zhan Xiaobai and the others first went to Wuwei City and had an exchange with the NPC civil and military officials of Wuwei City. Although he is the Taishou of Wuwei City, the government affairs are actually delegated to the NPC celebrity Jiang Huai, who handles various trivial government affairs on his behalf. Jiang Huai's political value is much higher than Zhan Xiaobai's, and his level of government affairs handling also surpasses Zhan Xiaobai's. In line with the principle of making the best use of people, Zhan Xiaobai can only let the former village chief of Jiangjia Village work his behalf.

After staying in Wuwei City for a few days and checking the various government affairs of Wuwei City, there was nothing wrong, and then returned to Xiaobai Town in Wuwei County.

Xiaobai Town, a paved stone road outside the town, leads to Perfect Town-Moxiao Town-Batu Town-Wuwei City, Wutong Town-Zongheng Town-, Haw Par Town-Warring States Town, Hutou Mountain .......

With Xiaobai Town as the center, the spider webs are generally dense, extending in all directions, connecting all the villages above the level of a large village within a hundred miles.

With the five major towns of Xiaobai Town as the core of the industry, supplemented by the rest of the villages and towns, the super production capacity within this traffic spider web has formed a huge tension, radiating the villages and towns within hundreds of miles of Wuwei County.

Now Xiaobai Town has become the economic, trade, commercial, manufacturing and talent center of Wuwei County after Wuwei City. In this circle, the floating population of players is highly dense, creating huge wealth.

Countless players in Wuwei County are walking, riding horses, or riding carriages, transport vehicles pulling raw materials and goods, and bodyguards escorting large caravans of Xiaobai Chamber of Commerce.

Even the former weak villages such as Daqi Village and Hualing Village, because they were very close to Xiaobai Town, became satellite villages of Xiaobai Town, and now they are also prosperous out of control. Many players who can't enter the development of Xiaobai Town have gone to the surrounding small villages to develop.

Zhan Xiaobai and his entourage returned to Xiaobai Town from Wuwei City, although they were not notified in advance, but the news quickly spread to Xiaobai Town.

The elders of Xiaobai Town, the captain of the player legion, and the NPC officials came to the gate of the town to greet them, and countless ordinary players flocked to the outside of the town in a frenzy, cheering and welcoming Xiaobai into the village.

There are countless invitations from old friends in the town, and countless invitations from other village chiefs and elders.

Whoever can push it, pushes it all.

But the hospitality of some old friends cannot be shirked, face must be given, and the banquet must also be attended. Not only do you have to participate, but you also have to toast the backbone of the important ministers one by one, Qiushui, Jian Ba, Deputy Mayor Li Asan, a group of NPC civil and military officials, the captains of each legion of the Xiaobai Alliance, the backbone players of the Xiaobai Chamber of Commerce, and the other village mayors who are sitting in Xiaobai Town.

Zhan Xiaobai simply invited them all to one place to solve the "sex" problem at once.

In addition, there are some important allies, the mayor's banquet, which he also needs to attend. It's not like it used to be, and you can just find a few excuses to push off all the invitations. As the leader of the Xiaobai Alliance, he strengthens the feelings of the villages and towns within the Xiaobai Alliance, and many private transactions need to be completed in the banquet.

The tavern in Xiaobai Town has been lively for several days.

In his spare time, Zhan Xiaobai didn't have much time to rest, and in the study of the Executive Yuan, he began to deal with a large number of military affairs reports, Xiaobai Town financial reports, Xiaobai Chamber of Commerce reports, construction reports, and other reports submitted by Jianba and Qiushui.

According to the importance of the report, it is classified into different grades.

Of course, it's impossible to read all the stacks of reports in detail. He only briefly flipped through the important content to grasp the general situation. Despite this, it can still be time-consuming to go through thousands of reports.

Qiushui stood beside Zhan Xiaobai, ready to answer his inquiry.

Unconsciously, Zhan Xiaobai kept seeing that at twelve o'clock in the evening, a candle was lit on the candlestick on the desk for unknown reasons. A candle can be lit for half an hour, and in a flash, seven or eight candles are replaced on the candlestick, and the remaining extinguished candle heads remain on the candlestick.

Qiushui stood behind Zhan Xiaobai for four hours, silently watching him browse through the report.

She was a little tired from standing, but she didn't find a chair to sit on. Compared with Big Brother Bai's hard work, this is nothing. Brother Bai has been socializing since he got up in the morning, drinking so much wine, and being busy until the evening, and he has to read various reports in the study for several hours intently, and he writes down the contents without any mistakes.

I really don't know where I got so much energy, and I don't get tired at all?

She even preferred to be tired herself and let Big Brother Bai rest early. However, she knew that she could not be persuaded. With Big Brother Bai's habits, what can be completed today will never be delayed until tomorrow.

Zhan Xiaobai had some important industry reports in hand, and after reading a report on the "Initial Investigation Report on the Armament Manufacturing Industry in Wuwei County - The Demand for Low- and Medium-end Equipment Surges by 37%, and the Market Exceeds Demand", he put it down and pondered.

This is only a manufacturing statistics report for a county in Wuwei County, but it reflects the trend of the entire game.

It has been a month since Dong Zhuo's "Order to Abolish the Barracks" was promulgated, and it has begun to gradually show the power of this ban. While it dealt a heavy blow to the barracks trading market in cities, villages and towns throughout the system, it strongly stimulated the player's desire to "assemble and configure NPC soldiers".

Players have created a "tide" of deploying their own soldiers, showing off to other players how powerful the soldiers they assemble are.

Along with this "tide" is the frenzy of equipment manufacturing in various villages and towns in the entire game. This in turn fueled the frenzy of the game, and the number of players playing the game continued to set new records - it would be hard to believe that there was no game company behind this hidden "sex" and "manipulation". Because of this move by intelligent NPCs, the long-term benefits for game companies are obvious. Although the game company has been strongly stating that they absolutely do not "interfere" in the game process, and will never interfere with the interests of players.

Of course, the benefits of the "Abolition Barracks Order" to the player's villages and towns are also obvious.

The barracks were abolished, and in the middle and late stages of the game, the strength of various player alliances and NPC warlord forces competed, and they had to highly concentrate on the production capacity of weapons and armaments, and train their own troops.

Or it can be said that you can't buy soldiers, you can only build them. Delays the regrouping of NPC soldiers, and makes it impossible to buy soldiers directly from the barracks and pull them into battle.

The industrial strength of each village's basic "sex" plays a role in determining "sex".

The Xiaobai Alliance has maintained a high degree of silence on the vigorous incident of "Shengshi Network Company may be '' the longitudinal intelligent program in the dark to change the course of the game", and the important reason is that this is quite beneficial to the Xiaobai Alliance.

The Xiaobai Alliance holds the largest production bases in the hands of players - Wuwei County and Zhangye County. With the production capacity of the two counties, it is even enough to compete with the first-class NPC warlords Ma Teng and Han Sui. As long as the Little White Alliance does not make major mistakes, no other player alliance will be able to surpass it in the short term, and the gap will widen. This dominant position will continue until the Battle of Tiger Prison in January next year.

Subsequently, there will be a major reshuffle in the power pattern of players and NPC warlords in the world.

Therefore, the Xiaobai Alliance will naturally remain silent in this incident, and quickly adjust the industrial layout in a low-key manner to adapt to the development of the situation.

Zhan Xiaobai pondered, suddenly noticed that Qiushui was still there, and smiled: "It's hard work, you go and rest first." I guess it will take a while to read these reports. Tomorrow you will find out the stat report of the number of all the NPC soldiers we have available. ”

Qiushui pursed his lips and said, "Well, okay, I'll find out the NPC force report early tomorrow morning." It's already late, and Big Brother Bai is resting early. I'm in the bedroom of the wing, and if there's anything to call me, just call me. ”

Qiushui went back to her room in the Executive Yuan and did not go offline.

Zhan Xiaobai shook his head helplessly with a light smile, and continued to read several other industrial assessment reports, "Yizhou, Xiaoye Alliance 200 Villages and Towns Armaments Industry Investigation and Evaluation Report", "Sili, Silent Alliance Villages and Towns Armaments Industry Investigation and Evaluation Report", "Sili, Shengshi Alliance Villages and Towns Armaments Industry Investigation and Evaluation Report", 、......。
