Chapter 274: "Honesty"
In the city lord's office, Zhang Long knelt on the ground and resolutely refused to get up. A deep sense of remorse and self-blame tormented this rough man.
"My lord, they are all subordinates who underestimate the enemy, so that in the battle of Longhu Town last night, forty-seven brothers were killed, and Zhang Long died without redemption! Please, the Lord punishes you! β
When a large number of patrolling martial artists were preparing to attack Dragon Tiger Town, they notified Zhang Long to prepare for battle as soon as possible. But in Zhang Long's cognition, he didn't take the "ridiculous" combat effectiveness of the adventurer player to heart at all, although he also made preparations, but he thought that three hundred militia were enough to defeat the incoming enemy, and even the soldiers of the arrow tower were not arranged.
When the other militia in Longhu Town took control of the fire and the situation was not right, the militia who went out to fight had already paid the price of blood. Although the number of casualties was actually small, this qiΔ could have been avoided.
Although the Tiger and Leopard Tieji dispatched this time are all elite, and the tacit division of labor is reasonable, the combat power is very high, but Longhu Town, as Fengxiang's military territory, has more than 11oo people in the territory of 2,000 people who can go into battle to fight, if all mobilized, it will be able to defeat the enemy with lightning speed, even if there are casualties, it will not reach 47 people!
Zhang Long was originally the big boss of Qingyun Village in Jiuli Mountain. "Congliang" soon established the south of Longhu Town to defend Fengxiang, and Fengxiang had a good appearance when Fengxiang was attacked in all times, and he could be regarded as the old man of Fengxiang. Because of his carelessness, the territory suffered undue losses, and Zhang Long, a tower-like man, cried bitterly.
Ah Niu sighed, got up and said to Zhang Long: "Get up, how can there be immortals in the war, although we lost 47 villagers last night, but it is precisely because of your bloody battles that the two thousand enemies who came to attack were completely annihilated, and it was a brilliant victory no matter how you say it." You have once again defended Feng Xiang's dignity! β
Zhang Long still refused to get up, and the battle was won, but because of his own mistakes, the villagers who got along with Longhu Town day and night died, and Zhang Long was in pain. Chen Gong also frowned when he looked at it.
Seeing that Zhang Long was still like this, a certain city lord couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, and shouted:
"Get up! You're still Feng Xiang's old man, a senior martial artist, do you have a bit of the demeanor of a martial artist like this? Feng Xiang has no soft eggs! β
Ah Niu's reprimand was like a slap in the head, Zhang Long's heart sank, and he immediately stood up, but the pathos in his heart was not alleviated in the slightest.
A certain city lord's face turned slightly pale, and then he said: "I know the battle situation last night, and the combat power of those aliens is very different from before, which is refreshing. Even if I am amazed at their appearance, after this battle, I believe you will understand that you should not be contemptuous in the face of any enemy! β
Zhang Long nodded silently. As a party who personally experienced last night's battle, Zhang Long naturally has the most intuitive understanding of the player's combat power. Players with infinite lives have become so difficult after a few months. Although it is still far inferior to the militia in Dragon Tiger Town at this time, in time, these players will have the strength to fight the NPC forces sooner or later!
In fact, there is still a big gap between Fengxiang's militia combat effectiveness and the regular army, if it is replaced by the Shanzi battalion, in that case, the number of casualties is believed to be much less, and the group of perverts trapped in the camp are even fully capable of achieving zero losses.
"Last night, Longhu Town was attacked by a surprise attack, and all the villagers fought back, carried out a devastating blow to the enemy, and defended Fengxiang's honor and dignity. The public platform gave 200 gold to each of the villagers in Longhu Town as a reward, and the families of the villagers who died in the battle received a pension of 1,000 gold per family, and the villagers who were injured last night also needed to be taken care of. β
"Yes. Last night, I had already sent more than 30 doctors to Longhu Town, presumably at this time the treatment of the injured villagers was nearing completion. Chen Gong replied.
"That's good!" Ah Niu rolled his eyes and said to Zhang Long:
"Last night, because of your light enemy, there were unnecessary casualties in the territory, although there are objective reasons for the enemy's strong combat strength, but your fault is also obvious. If I punish you, I think you won't have any reason to be unconvinced. β
"Yes, Zhang Long is at the mercy of punishment and has no complaints!" Zhang Long's words were sonorous.
"Okay, worthy of our Fengxiang people, responsible! Thinking that you took the lead last night, and you were injured in many places and still fought hard, you will be fined half a month's salary, can you be convinced? β
As a lord, you must be fair, otherwise how can there be rules in the territory? In fact, although Zhang Long had the incident last night, he always had to take responsibility for doing something wrong, and Feng Xiang's salary level was already extremely high, and Zhang Long was symbolically fined half a month's salary, and Zhang Long's salary was still higher than that of people of the same level in other territories.
"Thank you, my lord. Everyone needs to be responsible for their actions. Zhang Long understands! β
Ah Niu nodded with satisfaction and said to Chen Gong: "Judging from the battle situation last night, the Inhumans are no longer as vulnerable as when the three major legions joined forces to attack our Fengxiang in the past. The battle situation in Longhu Town must also be communicated to the various affiliated territories of Fengxiang, as well as the various troops, so that everyone can understand the current shape, I don't want the mistake made by Zhang Long last night to happen again! β
"Rest assured, this matter will be implemented this morning. Zhang Long captured a prisoner last night, and now he is in prison, is the lord interested in meeting that stranger? β
Objectively speaking, Ah Niu didn't expect that there are still adventurous players who dare to launch a large-scale attack on their territory, and it seems that there are really people who are bold. When he saw who was being held in the prison, Ah Niu couldn't help but be surprised.
"Qin Dufeng! It's you!! β
Qin Dufeng knew that this matter could no longer be good, and after being captured, sooner or later there would be a time to face Lord Fengxiang. A wry smile said, "That's right, we meet again." β
When he was in Luoyang, Ah Niu's impression of Qin Dufeng was not bad, although there was no in-depth communication, but the two got along very happily at that time. Unexpectedly, Qin Dufeng personally led a large group of men and horses to attack Fengxiang.
"Why?" A certain city lord asked in a deep voice.
Qin Dufeng was silent, Ah Niu's question was very vague, and this "why" may contain a lot of meanings. Why did you sneak up on Feng Xiang's subordinate territory? Why help a power vacuum? Why did the tiger and leopard Tieji in Jizhou move people thousands of miles to Qingzhou? Why......
There are too many possibilities, and Qin Dufeng is very difficult to answer. No matter how Qin Dufeng talks, he is also the leader of the No. 1 gang in Jizhou, and he usually acts very principledly, many things, Qin Dufeng will not talk about in such a situation.
Inside the prison, there was a deathly silence, and the two faced each other silently, like two sculptures.
It was Ah Niu who took the lead in breaking the silence and said to Qin Dufeng: "In the battle last night, the fighting skills of your gang made Ah Niu refreshing, and it actually caused our Fengxiang to lose 47 villagers. Although there are reasons for this result, the mayor of Longhu Town is careless, but in any case, the combat effectiveness of Tiger and Par Tieji is enough to boast. β
Objectively speaking, Ah Niu's words were definitely from his heart, and there was no hint of ridicule and sarcasm, but after hearing it, Qin Dufeng felt like he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle.
Haw Par Iron Ji 2,000 elites. Sneaking up on an "ordinary" subordinate territory under Feng Xiang's rule that had no garrison and no city walls to protect it, and only killed 47 NPC villagers when the entire army was wiped out, such a result was inevitably a great irony for Qin Dufeng. And this result is still caused by the opponent's underestimation of the enemy!
On the issue of whether Feng Xiang was "underestimating the enemy", Qin Dufeng knew that Ah Niu had no need to lie deliberately, and even until last night, when the entire army of Tiger and Leopard Tieji was wiped out, the legendary Feng Xiang's powerful regular troops did not appear (the battle was over when the first deceased arrived, and Qin Dufeng had also been captured). The Dragon and Tiger Town in Ah Niu's mouth completely defeated the two thousand elites of the Tiger and Leopard Tieji with its own strength, and the appearance of the martial artist was just the icing on the cake.
After this battle, the losses of Haw Par Tieji can be described as heavy. Two thousand high-end players with an average level of 45 died en masse, and their levels were all reduced by one level, and it would take at least 15 days to practice this level back! The equipment of the two thousand elite players is mostly valuable, and it is not known how long it will take to restore the equipment of these players to the level before the war.
In fact, there is another loss that is difficult to quantify: Haw Par Tieji Hope for the confidence of players.
Under the painstaking management of Qin Dufeng, Haw Par Tieji rose to prominence in the Battle of the Yellow Turban, and established strong confidence and cohesion in a series of battles, which can be seen just by looking at the expedition of 2,000 elites to Qingzhou and the tacit cooperation in the battle. Players are individuals with the best will, not as easy to control as NPCs, and the discipline shown by Haw Par Tieji players in this expedition is the foundation for them to be the number one gang in Jizhou.
However, such an "elite division" actually became a local chicken tile dog in front of Fengxiang's ordinary NPCs! So what kind of combat power is Fengxiang's regular army!
In fact, this point was something that Qin Dufeng thought about. Although Longhu Town does not seem to have a garrison, most of this military territory is a militia, and although there is a gap between the combat power and the regular army, it can also make up for the numerical advantage of TongguΓ². Moreover, Haw Par Tieji has rarely been so tough in the battle with the Yellow Turban Army before. This time, it was completely short and long, and it hit the muzzle.
"Ah Niu's territory is indeed not to be insulted, Qin Dufeng admitted it. Although it was our gang that took the initiative to attack this time, costing your territory 47 lives, our tiger and leopard Tieji did not suffer heavy casualties! It's come to this, give me a good time. β
"In the past, I met Twilight, and Ah Niu was not very happy. It's just that yesterday you tigers and leopards attacked Fengxiang for no reason, and killed and injured my villagers, from now on we are friends and enemies, if there is a place to live in the future, please bear with me. A gleam flashed in the eyes of a certain city lord, and he said unhurriedly.
Qin Dufeng's face darkened, although Ah Niu spoke politely, but how could this gang leader not hear the implication, and couldn't help but sigh secretly that he had been in a big trouble since then. Before the war, he was thinking about a war decision, and tried not to reveal his identity as much as possible, but he didn't expect this to be the situation now.
"Twilight understands."
"That's good. Twilight is the old acquaintance of Ah Niu. is also the leader of Haw Par Tieji, so Feng Xiang's some torture methods don't have to be tried. It's just that Twilight Wind should know that Ah Niu, as the lord of Fengxiang, still doesn't do anything about the enemy chieftain, and the blood feud of the 47 villagers must be explained. β
Qin Dufeng didn't know how terrifying the "torture method" in the mouth of a certain city lord was at this time, and later learned from the mouth of a powerful vacuum cleaner that he quit the game after being tortured, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and secretly rejoiced.
"This is natural. The two thousand brothers of Haw Par Tieji were demoted one level in Fengxiang, and there was no reason for me, the gang leader, to be alone. The long laughter could not hide the sadness.
After asking people to open the prison and let Qin Dufeng come out, Ah Niu smiled and asked, "Do you need Ah Niu to send someone to give Twilight a ride?" β
Even in a hostile state, a certain city lord couldn't help but have a good impression of Qin Dufeng's bearing. Although the player can also self-destruct, the mental torture of the suicide action is not something that ordinary people can face calmly, and Ah Niu has the heart to give Qin Dufeng a good time.
"Haha, Ah Niu's kindness, Twilight Breeze understands, but it doesn't need to be so troublesome."
Qin Dufeng can build Haw Par Tieji into the number one gang in Jizhou, and it is obviously not a simple role, and he stretched it out to his neck after directly switching out of the short army. Although the player in the game mainly determines life and death based on his health, if he is seriously injured in critical locations such as the neck and heart, he will definitely die, which is the so-called "vital attack".
Ah Niu kept smiling and watching Qin Dufeng's actions, and when he saw that this gang leader was about to kill himself, he stopped again and asked:
"I have a question before leaving, if it's convenient, please tell Ah Niu frankly. The NPC of Dragon and Tiger Town who fought with my gang last night is really not Fengxiang's regular soldiers? I've fought the Yellow Turban Army many times, and the combat effectiveness of those NPCs is not inferior to the average Yellow Turban Army. β
Qin Dufeng still refused to accept that the two thousand elites of the Tiger and Par Tieji were no match for Feng Xiang's "ordinary" NPCs, but Qin Dufeng was only curious, and did not expect a certain city lord to answer. But Ah Niu still quickly gave him the answer.
"It's not!"
Qin Dufeng let out a long sigh and said no more. After the white light, Qin Dufeng had already disappeared from Ah Niu's side.
"You're asking if the NPCs in Dragon Tiger Town are regular soldiers, the militia is obviously not a regular army, but I'm very honest." A certain city lord muttered to himself leisurely, but Qin Dufeng obviously couldn't hear these words anymore. (To be continued)
