After coming out of Cai Yan's small attic. Ah Niu's mood was extremely heavy, and many of the next ones did not smile happily. At present, Pang Tong is the one who knows the habits of a certain city lord best in Fengxiang City, and this king-level strategist has come to the conclusion that the main male elephant is worried about Cai Yong's fate.

It is true that although twenty elite Dark Flower masters were sent to Chang'an, such a lineup should be able to rescue Cai Yong when Chang'an was in chaos, but there are no absolutes in the world, and the last time Xiaodao and others missed in Luoyang, it seemed that there was no difficulty in that operation. Failing to rescue Cai Yong from Luoyang still has a chance to remedy, if Dong Zhuo still can't be rescued from Chang'an before the fall, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Wang Yun, who used beauty tricks to provoke Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu's civil strife, will not let Cai Yong have a good life.

However, just Cai Yong's problem is obviously not enough to make a certain city lord so upset, and what other reason is not known to Pang Tong. Pang Tong, who boasted of his ability to perceive people's hearts, was dissatisfied with his wisdom.

"The lord who has always been optimistic, what are you bothered about at this time?" This question has become an insoluble mystery in the minds of officials, including Pang Tong and Sun Liang. Even Wang Yue and Liu Xing once dragged a certain city lord to drink under the pretext of an excuse, hoping to squeeze out a little useful information from Ah Niu's mouth, but unfortunately the players who are not drunk in the game will suffer from drinking?

Although a certain city lord is also trying to control his own feelings. When facing ordinary villagers, he often squeezes out a smile with all his might, but according to a certain NPC child who is unscrupulous, "What's wrong with the city lord?" Laughing is worse than crying! ”

The only one in the territory who knows the inside story, except for Ah Niu himself, I'm afraid there is only Xiaoyu. However, Xiao Yu, who knew the truth, was at a loss for this, and the things that a certain city lord was worried about were already out of her ability, so she could only quietly accompany Ah Niu and tell a few small jokes from time to time.

"There has been no news for so many days, no wonder he is in a hurry." Although Xiao Yu didn't think that matter was very important, in her opinion, the current Fengxiang shape shì was very good, and there was really no need to go to great lengths to pursue that, but as early as the beginning of the two of them studying together, Xiao Yu knew that Ah Niu, who seemed to be optimistic and open-minded, would never let go lightly once he identified the goal.

What Ah Niu is upset about now is, of course, Feng Xiang's interests in the campaign against Dong Zhuo.

For other players, the battle has indeed ended, and for Feng Xiang, it can only be said that it is over. In the eyes of Pang Tong and others, although Feng Xiang's gains in the first half of the campaign against Dong Zhuo were very rich, they were still far from the ultimate goal of a certain city lord.

Bad news one after another, on the fourth day after a certain city lord returned to the territory, Emperor Wu of Han brought Ah Niu another "surprise", about the NPC chosen by Huoyun City. After several days of hard thinking, Emperor Wu of Han finally made a decision: Yuan Shao!

"Brother Niu, I have thought about it, it is Yuan Shao!"

When Ah Niu heard Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty happily say this, he could only smile helplessly. This also means that Fuxing City, which ranks third in the princes' camp, has a better chance of choosing Cao Cao. In Ah Niu's opinion, if there is a chance, the powerful vacuum cleaner will definitely choose Cao Cao instead of others, such a choice is most in line with the interests of Fuxing City, long-, medium- and short-term interests!

This is a situation that a certain city lord would never want to see.

Emperor Wu of Han didn't notice that a certain city lord's face was wrong, and still excitedly stated his reasons: "I have thought about it, if you choose to obtain Kong Rong's friendship, although it can make Huoyun City gain short-term benefits, the shelf life of such a relationship is too short; As for Cao Cao, he is a worthy long-term relationship, but who can guarantee that Cao Cao in the game can also be as prosperous as in history? The key is that his power will be extended to Qingzhou, and it will take too long to wait; Yuan Shao is relatively moderate, financially powerful, and talented, Yuan Shao in the game has great hopes of defeating Cao Cao. ”

Speaking of this, Emperor Wu of Han looked at Ah Niu and whispered: "Actually, there is another reason, that is, Brother Niu." Doesn't Brother Niu have some friendship with Cao Cao, when necessary, if you help matchmaking, I still have the possibility to deal with Cao Cao, hehe. ”

I have to admit that Emperor Wu of Han's choice of Yuan Shao is indeed the result of careful consideration, and in this way, it is also the most in line with the interests of Huoyun City. Ah Niu had to smile bitterly and nodded, "Yes, I think very far-reaching, and now it seems that it is indeed the most suitable for you to choose Yuan Shao." ”

Ah Niu understands. With his influence on Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he only needed a light sentence to make Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty change his existing thoughts, and he didn't even need to sue Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty for reasons. But how could Ah Niu let his friends pay for Feng Xiang's interests? For friends, Ah Niu has always been cherished.

"Haha, since Brother Niu also thinks it's suitable, then I'll choose it! Remember to find an opportunity to help me introduce Cao Cao, in fact, I like Cao Cao very much, if it weren't for Brother Niu and Cao Cao's legs, I would definitely choose him. ”

"Good!" After a certain city lord cut off the communication bracelet, he almost burst into tears, and after a long time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not choose Cao Cao, all because of his own reasons?

If Fuxing City chooses to gain Cao Cao's friendship, it will definitely not be a good thing for Feng Xiang. Cao Cao may be just a "potential stock" for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in Qingzhou, and it takes a long wait to see the benefits, but for the Fuxing City of Jizhou, it is a sweet spot that can immediately receive immediate results. If Cao Cao can also dominate the north in the game as he did in history, then Fuxing City can gain even more benefits.

Ah Niu is not worried about what will be unfavorable to Feng Xiang after he hooks up with Cao Cao, after all, Feng Xiang has already gained Cao Cao's friendship. The Luoyang meeting arranged by Cai Yong, the fierce generals in the battle against Dong Zhuo, and the upcoming war horse trade between Feng Xiang and Cao Cao's forces after the battle all made the relationship between Ah Niu and Cao Cao very stable for a long time, no matter what, Feng Xiang was able to benefit from his dealings with Cao Cao, not to mention that a powerful vacuum cleaner could replace him.

After Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an, the friendship between the Kwantung princes had expired, and the open and secret battles between them became more and more frequent. The current group of heroes, not only to guard against being annexed by their former allies, but also to find ways to replace each other, one by one is busy recruiting troops to expand their military strength, the iron-blooded Three Kingdoms, the most convincing is military strength! And Feng Xiang's top-grade Wuhuan war horse and rhubarb crossbow undoubtedly have a considerable attraction to the princes!

Even Kong Rong, who didn't have much ambition, had already personally expressed his desire to buy war horses and rhubarb crossbows to a certain city lord. In the battle against Dong Zhuo, Kong Rong's general Wu Anguo was cut off by Lu Bu's halberd, and the number one general is now no longer in his former glory, surrounded by strong enemies. Kong Rong also had to prepare for his life and death.

Although the battle against Dong Zhuo has ended, the integration of player forces is still in the ascendant. In this campaign, not only did a large number of lord players perish, but also a group of new lord players were created, and the war had huge risks, but it also had huge benefits.

The lords who have greatly increased their foreign military strength in the battle are undoubtedly the biggest beneficiaries of the player's power. After understanding the truth that "war can make you rich", these powerful lords began to use troops against the weaker ones in the vicinity, and since the end of the campaign, the war between players in Tongzhou and County has hardly been interrupted, although it is impossible to use wolf pack tactics like in the battle, but the military superiority can still allow some lords to gain something.

In the battle, a large number of lords and players painstakingly managed their territories were wiped out under the siege of strong enemies, which also made the surviving lords more cautious, and no one hoped that they would be the next to be destroyed.

Many of the lords who had not recovered from the losses of the campaign were quickly struck, and dozens of realms perished almost daily. Of course, the number of lords eliminated every day is far less rapid than that of battles, but the number one goal of some powerful lords with flexible minds is no longer to destroy their opponents, and many weak lords have to sign alliances under the city in humiliation and become vassals or colonies of the enemy!

- It is not pleasant to be a vassal, but it is better than having your territory destroyed by someone. Besides, "natural selection, survival of the fittest", the integration of forces between players is only a matter of time, unless you have extremely strong and able to stand alone, you can "join" a powerful power group earlier can not only make the territory survive. It can also be protected by the group, saving a lot of trouble.

As more and more ** forces are annexed, the victorious side gets more and more benefits from it, and the pace of annexation is further accelerated!

Of course, not all players are willing to become other people's vassals or colonies, in fact, there are not a few lord players who pursue "** freedom". In order to protect themselves, many relatively weak lord players began to look around for allies in case of a possible attack.

But such an alliance of interests also requires an individual to take charge. Due to the continuous use of foreign troops by the "player warlords" to expand their strength, the alliance of the "freedom fighters" had to use various means to "condole", "negotiate", and "recruit peace" to some weak forces in the vicinity in order to have enough strength to fight against them. The battle between players is getting fiercer!

After the end of the campaign, some of the lord players began to attack strongly.

Fuxing City, which was suppressed by Fengxiang's ambush in the later stages of the battle. After the end of the battle, he quickly completed the conscription, and immediately continued to attack in Julu County with a furious momentum. The troops of the historical general Gao Ran are invincible troops in the eyes of the Jizhou lord players.

As of the date of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's own choice, the troops of the powerful vacuum cleaner had successively broken through two third-level townships, and used the population and talents of these two third-level townships to make up for the loss of Fuxing City's loss of the first place in the princes' camp. The reason why only two territories were won was because Fuxing City could only declare war on one player at a time, and that player had three days to prepare.

Almost at the same time as Fuxing City sent troops, the first dark horse in the Battle of Dong Zhuo, Bo Ancient City, also began to expand externally. Zhang San, a fierce general who has not healed from his injuries, obviously has the characteristics of a military general who can enhance the offensive and defensive attributes of the troops he leads, and Bo Gucheng is very close to the war zone in the battle against Dong Zhuo, which also enables the large army of Bo Gucheng to quickly complete the assembly, and Zhang San, who was injured in the battle, also achieved the same result when Gao Ran laid the second territory for Fuxing City!

Not to be outdone, Kakaluka's Five Lakes City and the breezy Inhuman City soon followed the example of Fuxing and Bo Ancient City, swinging the butcher's knife towards the weaker lord players. It's just that the current results of these two powerful lords are not outstanding, because the war zone is too far away from the territory, Tai Shici and Shar Pei Dog have not had time to rush back to the territory, Rao is so, the troops of these two lords still captured a territory respectively.

The land of Shenzhou is full of smoke, and Qingzhou has not been spared. Beihai County, Pingyuan County, Jinan County, Le'an County, Donglai County, and Qiguo County have wars every day, and hundreds of NPC soldiers are killed in the battle every day.

The big fish eat the small fish, the small fish eat the shrimp, and most of the powerful city-level lords choose to attack the third-level townships, while the township-level lords who also hope to benefit from the war have set their sights on the opponents who are worse than themselves. While the scale of the war is nowhere near the size of the campaign, the number of players affected is outstanding.

In fact, many of the battles were provoked by players who remained neutral in the campaign, or were kicked out of the campaign prematurely. Unable to get a satisfactory return in the battle, the lords were more well-organized in comparison. chose to "take advantage of your illness to kill you", and made up for his losses by declaring war through guò.

Even Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who has always been inconspicuous and can be called a "peace lover" among the lord players, also took Yu Wei, who won the first place in the camp of the princes in the crusade against Dong Zhuo, and fought in Beihai County. The only thing worthy of "praise" is that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty doesn't seem to like to kill others, and this guy is more keen on a more "benevolent" way to achieve his goal: if you can't beat me for mercy, you can also don't want your population and talents, and even the fate of vassals can be saved, everyone wants to save face, right? It is only necessary to compensate for "a little" military spending!

As for the so-called "little bit", just look at the miserable faces of the victims.

Not many people know why Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who has always been kind to others, suddenly changed his heart, is it really vanity that makes people progress and gets the first place in the princes' camp?

When Ah Niu learned of Emperor Wu of Han's actions, he was very stunned and exclaimed: "This kid has changed his sex? And specifically criticized Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty on this matter:

"Technically, you're not doing it wisely! If you don't fly, you have to fly to the sky; If you don't make a sound, you will be amazing. Since we want to fight, we must fight resolutely and thoroughly, directly destroy the other party, and snatch away all talents and population, this is the way to do it once and for all; If you think this method is too cruel, you should at least sign an agreement with the other party, so that there is no way to settle accounts with you, haven't you heard that 'cutting the grass does not remove the roots, and the spring breeze blows and grows'? How can there be anything like you, as long as others lose some money? Wait for others to recover their breath, they can find you for revenge at any time, if you fail, you have to be careful! ”

Regarding the accusation of a certain city lord, Emperor Wu of Han did not distinguish between them, he just nodded vigorously, and smirked, and Ah Niu, who hated iron but not steel, was speechless. Finally, a certain city lord sighed, "Have you been short of money recently?" If that's the case, I can lend you some after a while, don't make enemies for yourself anymore, Huoyun City's body bones are not strong enough. ”

A few days later, when Zhao Long took a million gold again to give to Ah Niu, Ah Niu understood the truth of the matter. The reason why Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty became a "villain" uncharacteristically, and did not hesitate to make enemies for himself but also extort some funds back, was because of Feng Xiang!

Since he learned that Ah Niu actually borrowed money from Zilonghui for a mere 200,000 yuan, Emperor Wu of Han understood that the current economic situation of Fengxiang City was extremely poor, and thinking of Ah Niu handing over two million gold to himself without blinking in the war zone, Emperor Wu of Han subconsciously thought that it was precisely because he dragged Feng Xiang down, and then thought of the selfless help of a certain city lord for a long time, Emperor Wu of Han couldn't sit still.

After entrusting Zhao Long with the one million battle bonus that had just arrived to Ah Niu, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty tried his best to get together a sum of money in a short period of time.

After Zhao Long returned to the city, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty rushed to lead his army in a hurry, and at the same time contacted several players of the adventurous gang, all of whom were powerful figures of the gang who had a long-term deal with the medicinal dumplings in Huoyun City. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty originally thought that he could use the medicine dumplings produced in the territory to advance a part of the funds from these adventurous gangs, but unfortunately, these adventurous gangs consumed a lot of money in the battle, and their hands were also very tight for a while, and even one of the gang leaders did not wait for Emperor Wu of Han to speak, so he put forward the request of "can you owe some medicines on credit first", which made Emperor Wu of Han speechless.

Thinking about it, a big gang like Lian Zilong, which has two branches, and gathers the financial resources of the three gangs for the elites of the main association to fight, has become very tight on funds, not to mention other smaller gangs. In desperation, Emperor Wu of Han had no choice but to take a risk and make a move against the nearby lord players, which was also the first time in the history of Huoyun City to provoke the outside world!

-- This is the fundamental reason why Huoyun City does not want people and talents, but only "war reparations"!

Originally, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked Zhao Long not to tell the source of funds to "Dear Brother Niu", just as the money of the Zilong Society, and the last time the million was also transferred in this way. But a certain city lord is not stupid, Zhuge Lin personally told him a few days ago that the Zilong Club is currently in a tight economy, and has "borrowed" 1.5 million to Feng Xiang, how can he get another million so quickly?

Under the side knocks, Zhao Long had to confess and be lenient, fighting his heart, Zhao Da Gang Leader was far from being the opponent of Fengxiang City Lord.

"I see. Zong Xiaomei's side, it's also your big mouth that said, right? ”

Just the day before, Zong Wuyan happily contacted Ah Niu and proudly showed off to a certain city lord, "Brother Niu, I have recently found a good way to make money, and it is very profitable to make usury." I usually only charge three cents, of course, if it is a person who is pleasing to the eye, it is okay not to have interest. "Now it seems that Zong Wuyan's words yesterday obviously mean something.

"That...... It just so happened that she was idle and bored to chat with me yesterday, so she ...... by the way" Zhao Long smiled embarrassedly.

The later million, not only the indemnity obtained by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty from foreign wars, but also almost all the working capital of Huoyun City were included!

After learning this, Ah Niu's eyes moistened, he didn't mistake Emperor Wu of Han, this is indeed a trustworthy friend! However, after learning the truth, a certain city lord still trained Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ruthlessly, and he was unprecedentedly fierce.

"Who told you I was short of money? Well, it was a little tight a few days ago, but now it's eased, if there is really no way, won't I send troops to rob it myself? Isn't it great that your Fire Cloud City won the first place in the princes' camp? Feng Xiang's troops are not yet able to fight you, do you believe it or not, I can kill all your troops with only 3,000 men? If you don't have a decent general in Huoyun City, you will definitely be able to withstand someone else's counterattack? I heard that you have declared war on the second lord, so stop early. I'll let Zhao Long return the one million to you, don't make trouble for yourself again! If necessary, I will speak myself! ”

Although Ah Niu's words were ugly, and he degraded the troops of Huoyun City to worthlessness without the slightest mercy, Emperor Wu of Han understood that Ah Niu's reaction was so fierce that it was entirely for his own good. If it weren't for him as a friend and a brother, a certain city lord wouldn't have been furious about it.

The resolute attitude of a certain city lord made Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty understand that Ah Niu would not accept the million, and Huoyun City's external "blackmail" would lose its meaning. The first place in the princes' camp soon returned to a low profile and focused on the exhibition of the territory.

The consolidation of forces among players is in full swing, but such a major shuffle is not without limits. Due to the destruction of a large number of lord players, the number of vacancies for lord players increased, and a new generation of lords quickly appeared.

Of course, the newly-born lords can only start building their territories from first-level villages, and any town-level lord can easily raze them to the ground, but this situation has not arisen, not only because these "little lords" have nothing on them, but the key factor is the protection measures introduced by the government.

No player force can legitimately attack village-level territory; In addition, if a territory above the village level wants to wage war with a foreign country, the gap between the territory level of the declaring party and the target object must not exceed three levels, and the system will directly block this possibility from the "declaration of war regulations"!

In other words, village-level lord players have little to no need to worry about their territory being violated, and second-tier cities like Fengxiang cannot wage a legitimate war against first-level towns. This is the "protection period" that the system provides for the new lords, and to avoid the uncontrolled "hunting" of the weak lords by the stronger lords.

Of course, illegal attacks are still allowed, and the result of doing so is definitely not worth the loss, and NPC forces will not sit idly by and watch this kind of "excessive bullying of the weak". If left unchecked, the advantages of the old powerful lords will become more and more obvious, and the new generation of lords will not have the time and space to grow at all, let alone have the opportunity to compete with them.

The good intentions of the officials were obviously a boon to the new lords, but soon some of the new lords were sadly revealed: powerful "neighbors" made "friendly" visits to them, which could be a town-level lord or a player alliance, and the purpose of visiting wèn was nothing more than "we(s) can help you expand your territory and provide the necessary talents and people, but your territory must stand with me(s) and work together to build a strong circle of co-prosperity." ”

If you fall behind, you will be beaten, and despite the protection of the rules, the time for slaughter seems to have only been postponed. Of course, not all new lords will encounter such neighbors, but a considerable number of new lords have difficulty getting rid of the fate of being "in captivity......

While the lord players are fighting for a "glorious tomorrow", the adventurers are relatively calm, and the game once again sets off a leveling frenzy.

The battle of Dong Zhuo has caused the level of many adventurers to shrink again, and if you don't level up hard, you will obviously not be able to make a contribution in future battles (in fact, it is killing).

Aside from the factor of declining levels due to combat guides, there are two other good news that have stimulated the leveling of adventurous players**.

The first is a series of new skill books that appear in the final rewards of the campaign.

The new skill book for fierce general players not only has a heavy soldier kill, but also a long soldier must kill the flurry, and a short soldier must kill the heroic; Fang Shi's Divine Sword Flash, the Military Division's Wild Thunder Heavenly Prison, Haojie's Demon Sword Heavenly Dance, and the Archer's Xuanying Arrow Rain...... Each new skill book is much stronger than the previous best skills, and in line with their power, the acquisition level of each skill book is 7o!

Level 7o is undoubtedly as unattainable as a mirror for adventurers whose highest level is only level 55, but the player's desire for stronger skills is also amazing, and countless adventurers have gone crazy in order to reach a level where they can practice these skills.

Another piece of good news is the opening of the Vulture Cave map.

Given the relative weakness of the Adventure Gang in the campaign, a large number of Adventure Gang players have expressed their dissatisfaction on the official website. The grievances of these players can also be understood, a gang of tens of thousands of people, when fighting head-on, may not be able to take advantage of a 2,000-strong lord army, for adventure players, there is every reason to question this.

"Ten thousand adventurous players, and you can't beat one lord player? What is this called? ”

"As the size of the territory grows, and the number of troops that the lord player can recruit increases, we have no chance of coming out at all!"

"Now it takes almost half a month to upgrade to the next level, and the upgrade is too slow!"

"That's right, when will we be able to learn a level 7o skill with a leveling level like this?"

Millions of adventurous players signed their names on the forums to complain to the authorities, and the players' voices quickly caused a headache for the officials. After some intense research, it was officially revealed that the adventurous players did indeed seem to have been treated "unfairly", and what followed was an official compromise and the opening of the Bald Dragon Cave.

The Vulture Cave map is divided into three layers, which can be used by players of different levels to level up, and the monsters in it are very dense, and most of them have appeared on other maps, and the degree of player killing monsters will naturally not be slow. On top of that, kill monsters in the Vulture Cave and get double the XP!

Double XP is obviously a huge attraction for adventurous players who are eager to level up!

Therefore, as soon as the Vulture Dragon Cave opened, countless adventurous players poured into the large map and the dungeon map at the same time. Fortunately, the Bald Dragon Cave is officially set up to be large enough, and a location marker flag can be planted on each floor of the dungeon, so players can quickly return to the city to buy medicine after running out of "ammunition". The vigorous leveling exercise began like this.

On the twenty-first day after the end of the battle, the haze that had lingered on Lord Fengxiang's face for many days was finally swept away.

Almost all online adventurers were frightened by a system announcement.

"Ding-dong. The ancient capital of Luoyang was reduced to ruins in the war, and thousands of people were displaced, Zheng Aniu, the city lord of Fengxiang City, Qiguo County, Qingzhou, was trusted by Dong Zhuo and the princes, and was ordered to stand up in danger and accept a series of tasks: to rebuild Luoyang. Zheng Aniu can take himself or recommend one person to temporarily serve as the Taishou of Luoyang (this appointment will be cancelled immediately after the task is completed), congratulations to Zheng Aniu player. ”

(Today's two more, a total of 12,000 words, yesterday's 125 reminder votes won, this chapter is not a 6o vote addition, otherwise the cat will be too inauthentic.)

I've changed 30,000 words for three days in a row, I'm exhausted, it seems that I'm still a little worse than the iron man, and now I just want to have a good rest for a while, and the addition of sixty votes may be a day or two late, very tired, please forgive me.

I believe that after today's chapter is released, everyone should understand why Ah Niu chose the neutral camp in the battle, this result, should be unexpected by everyone, did the lewdness of the cat make everyone unexpected? Hehe. (To be continued)
