At five o'clock in the morning, there are very few players active in the game. Qin Xiaobai and a team of thirty players rushed out of Zhoushui City to Beiling, and almost no players were seen along the way. After they left, 66 continued to have some early rising players and began to assemble in various parts of Zhoushui Walled City, and then followed to Beiling. After seven o'clock in the morning, the number of players gradually increased.

Half past six.

Qin Xiaobai and a group of thirty people had already entered the depths of the mountain range, and according to the path they walked yesterday, they quickly arrived at the Shanrong tribe that they had fought yesterday. Stationed near the Shanjung tribe, let the 600 NPC warriors build a bonfire to roast meat to replenish their strength, and the players gathered to discuss how to fight today's battle.

Qin Xiaobai sat next to the bonfire, roasting a piece of dried meat, and asked everyone, "What do you think of today's battle?" ”

"Captain, today's battle is a little different from yesterday, yesterday we had a total of seventeen people, and we killed 2,872 Shanjung of this Shanjung tribe, which has weakened half of the combat effectiveness of the Shanjung tribe. Today, our number has almost doubled, and we want to kill this Shanjung tribe and directly end the entire Shanjung tribe. Maybe the Shanjung tribe can find something good! ”

Said a veteran player of the Little White Army.

Immediately, someone else shook their heads, "How can it be so easy, yesterday we first angered the entire Shanjung tribe, lured them out of the cottage, and then divided into a small group of NPC Shanjung who were no more than fifty Shanjung to kill." If we encounter 300 Shanjung troops head-on, we may not be able to escape. ”

"The chief of Shanjung is still in the tribe, at least more than 2,000 Shanjung, and it may be difficult to enter the cottage like this."

"By the way, did anyone bring plague medicine today?"

The player who brought a wizard into battle last time immediately replied, "No, it will take at least three days to create a pair of flu plague medicines. My wizard said he would have to take a break to make it, and refused to work overtime. ”

The crowd burst into laughter.

"I have a poison here that will continue to reduce blood. You can put it in an hour; "What's the use of poison, at most it can only kill one or two;" Don't talk about killing Shanjung. There is a shortage of labor in my fiefdom. Now there is an urgent need for a group of NPCs Shanjung, and we can't kill them all. ”

"Do you know how to capture a captive alive?"

"I don't know. However, I heard that some players have already captured the Shanjung captives, and as long as they are disarmed, they can be captured. It's just that the process of disarming is a bit troublesome. We have to make Shanjung drop his weapon, otherwise it won't be fun to hurt our own tribal warriors. But how can you get Shanjung to drop her weapon? "What do you think about catching them with fishing nets?"

"Nets? It's too small. It's okay to catch one or two people with this thing, can you catch a group of forty or fifty shanjung in one go? The mountains are very strong, they rush and kill in groups, there are stone spears and hunting bows, how can you resist them? I definitely can't catch it, and I still have to fight as a result. ”

"What then?"

The crowd deliberated for a while, and soon the focus shifted from killing Shanjung to capturing Shanjung's slaves.

Qin Xiaobai listened to everyone's discussions. Nodding.

Among the people in the field, at least half of them are "small rich peasants" who already own hundreds of acres of arable land, and they are naturally more interested in catching slaves to cultivate their own fields. Otherwise, what will you do with killing so many mountains and getting so much arable land?

Only when the field is planted can millet be produced and fed; When entering the Strategy Map, all land players can only take 50 people through the Space-Time Gate to enter the Strategy Map. But a Bronze Age player tribe, capped at 100 population. There are still 50 people in it who are not full.

In the strategy map, the player tribal peasant population has three sources:

1. Recruit NPC populations from the suzerain's tribe at the higher level, for example, Qin Xiaobai belongs to the jurisdiction of the Zhoushui tribe, and can and can only recruit people from the Zhoushui tribe. Because the recruits were peasants and warriors with civilian status, all the recruitment costs were quite expensive. Currently, recruiting an ordinary Halberd warrior from the Zhoushui tribe costs around 1000 copper coins. The average farmer has about 500 copper coins each. With a floating price, the fewer people the more expensive.

2. Capturing and trading NPC slaves. Become your own tribal population. This is the quickest way to increase the population of the clan, but NPC slaves are not stable and prone to riots.

3. NPCs naturally reproduce and reproduce among themselves, increasing the tribal population. This process is very slow, and it is unclear how long it will take to give birth to small NPCs, so there is no need to expect this method to increase the population of your tribe quickly.

In this team, most of the people are small kulak players. Needless to say, in addition to their desire to increase their arable land, what they are most eager to do at present is to capture some people; Of course, renting out the land to other players to plant is also a way. It's just that sooner or later, other players will have land, and then they will eventually plant their own land. It is still necessary to take some slaves.

Qin Xiaobai thought for a while. Capturing Shanjung is much more difficult than killing Shanjung. There are thirty players here, and if they could capture all of the tribe, they would be able to divide about 70 Shanjung slaves each.

Thinking of this, Qin Xiaobai smiled and shook his head, the possibility of all captives is equal to 0. Chief Shanjung won't sit in a cottage waiting for you to catch him.

After deliberating for a while, there was still no good way to capture a large number of Shanjung captives -- it was not enough to capture only a few dozen Shanjung, but there must be a way to capture hundreds or even thousands of Shanjung. However, there is no effective way to do so.

After more than 600 NPC fighters have eaten breakfast, it's time to act.

Qin Xiaobai assigned the tasks of the thirty players, and the twenty players were responsible for luring the mountains out, and the large shares of the mountains were continuously dispersed as much as possible, ten of them were in a group, and the other ten players were responsible for capturing these small groups of mountains.

If you want to capture Shanjung, you can't be afraid of trouble.

More than 20 players rode on horses and ran around the Shanjung cottage to shout and provoke loudly, trying to attract the Shanjung people in the cottage.

The Shanjung tribe cottage is located in the central chief's hut.

An NPC Shanjung chieftain, three wizards, and ten Shanjung chieftains are holding an emergency meeting in the hut.

Chief Shanjung was roaring angrily, "The despicable enemy is here again, tell Chief Ben how to repel them?!" Sorcerer, you say, what to do! ”

The three wizards looked at each other, "This." ”

The great leaders of the Shanjung shouted one after another, "Chief, take your brothers and kill them, and tear those despicable enemies to shreds!" "We have the strongest warriors, the bravest warriors, to slay the vile enemies!"

Chief Shanjung snorted, "Shut up, you rice buckets!" After chasing all day yesterday, which of you caught up with an enemy? The Horde has lost thousands of brave warriors, and as a result, not even a single enemy has been killed, you still have the face to say. ”

The big leader of the mountain immediately withered.

A big leader of the mountain winced and said, "Chief, this is not for us. They have four legs, we only have two, and we can't catch up! ”

The chief of the Shanjung held his chieftain's wooden staff, and shouted sadly, "It's really the death of my Shanrong tribe, when the catastrophe comes, there is no one in my tribe who can be of great use!" ”

The wizards hurriedly suggested, "Chief, let's hold on to the cottage." The Great Chief of the Shanrong Tribal Alliance has decided to mobilize troops to carry out a large-scale operation against the Yan Kingdom, as long as we support it for a few more days, these despicable enemies of the Yan Kingdom will no longer be able to harass us. ”

"Well, you can't hold on, you can't fall for them anymore!"

The player's provocation seems to have had a little effect, and the irascible Shanjung and Shanjung leaders can't bear it anymore and want to rush out of the cottage to fight the player.

But soon, the big chief and the big leader of Shanjung ran out of the thatched hut in the village, and shouted loudly to stop the impulse of the Shanjungs, "Don't go to war!" These despicable enemies deceived us yesterday, and today they want to lure us into being fooled, and we are not allowed to leave the village! ”

When the Shanjung heard the chief's order, they immediately quieted down, no longer paying attention to the provocation, and stood on the inside of the fence with hunting bows, guarding the inside of the stockade, watching vigilantly as the players shouted around the village.

Seeing that it didn't work, the players gradually became impatient, and a few players with warbows shot them. The warbow can shoot twenty-five paces, which is much longer than the fifteen strokes of a hunting bow. A few ordinary shanjung were shot, and they could not rush out to fight, so they could only avoid the fence and hide in a safer place inside the cottage.

The whole cottage occupies a close circle, and there are hundreds of thatched houses in the middle.

The players shot around the cottage, and as a result, hundreds of Shanjung guarding the fence took refuge in the cottage. The inside of the cottage was wide enough for them to dodge twenty-five arrows.

The Great Chief and the Shanjung Boss adhered to the strategy of stubborn defense, commanding the Shanjung Boss and thousands of Shanjung hunters to retreat to the thatched hut inside the cottage and confront the players with the help of obstacles.

"Shoot them like this, they won't come out, these Shanjung are going to die and shrink in the cottage, what should I do brothers, kill in?!"
