Chapter 9 Side Quests
Bringing the two pieces of equipment with him, Zhao Futu's strength reached 22 points, and his physical strength reached 17 points, he waved the steel long sword a few times, and suddenly found that the weapon became a little lighter, as if he felt that there was still a part of the strength that could not be used. The Silver Cross swordsmanship with the heavy sword has the greatest effect, and the best is the German-style decapitation sword with a counterweight ball, and he estimates that the weight of the weapon will be increased to more than fifteen catties.
"Looks like it's necessary to look for another weapon when we go back. I don't know if Nightmare Space will choose the martial arts world of Middle-earth as the mission space. If only I could get the Xuantie heavy sword used by Yang Guo in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". The Silver Cross swordsmanship was originally a path of 'great ingenuity'. It happens to be similar to the Xuantie swordsmanship created by Dugu's defeat! Zhao Futu thought in his heart, he had not figured out the law of the nightmare space's selection of the mission world until now, and there was no news about this at all the information he had obtained from the other contractors.
By this time, it was already getting dark.
The morale of this Yellow Turban army was not high, and after a fight, everyone sat on the ground in a decadent manner, eating the dry food they had brought with them.
When Zhao Futu led people out of the camp, he didn't bring anything with him, and the others did the same, so he brought a little military dry food, and it is estimated that saving a little to eat two meals will be up to the sky. If he plans to take these Yellow Turban Army into his team, then he must get a batch of supplies first, otherwise, the hearts of the people who have just been gathered will be scattered within two days.
"Let's go!" Zhao Futu patted the dust on his buttocks and said to the others: "It's not safe here!" ”
Where should I go now?
To tell the truth, Zhao Futu himself does not have a bottom, the forces of the Yellow Turban Army are too scattered, and it is not easy for him to go anywhere now. At present, there are only three ways in front of him, one is to go to Wancheng to join the newly elected Yellow Turban Qu Shuai Zhao Hong, his subordinates are now gathering more than ten thousand people to occupy Wancheng, although the morale is a little low because of Zhang Mancheng's death, but it will not fall for a while. But this road is a dead end, and Wancheng is now besieged by the officers and soldiers of the Han Dynasty, but it is only a matter of the length of time it is supported.
Moreover, if Zhao Futu is not mistaken, Wancheng was taken down by Sun Jian, which means that if he goes to Wancheng, he is likely to meet this Jiangdong Tiger!
A Bao Xindu is already so perverted.
So how terrifying is this legendary Jiangdong tiger Sun Jian?
The second is that he will take his current manpower to work alone, gather the remnants of the yellow turbans along the road, and see if he can build a force on his own. This road is even more dangerous, because he doesn't have a general under him who can handle it, and he can't support a big scene with these yellow turbans. However, the benefit of this article is undoubtedly the largest, and he has guessed one thing now, that is, the rewards for killing those who command the army will be very rich!
A big Yellow Turban Thief boss can drop a dark blue key, so what will those characters who command thousands of troops drop?
The third one, which is undoubtedly the safest and most secure, is that he will gather some elites with his current manpower, and then fight the autumn wind everywhere on this Yellow Turban battlefield, so that he will not have a profit but will not attract the attention of the Han Dynasty army because the goal is too big. What's more, if there are no additional side quests explored in 'Encounters', the maximum duration of the stay is seven days.
Zhao Futu is not a figure of an unpredictable prophet, he can at most judge the future direction based on the current information.
A person who is a little clever in reality is still a little smart in the nightmare space, and he will not become more intelligent and close to the demon all of a sudden, otherwise he would have already developed in reality. If you are really the kind of person who is wise and close to the demon, even in reality, you have already begun to emerge, especially now that there are so many channels for good or evil.
Being wise and close to demons is a thing, not a person, because people are fickle.
He thought for a while, and finally decided to grasp the immediate benefits first, Wancheng can't go, it is still necessary to gather people, but there is no need to erect his own banner and attract the attention of those famous generals of the Three Kingdoms in vain. The best way is to keep a low profile, take a group of people to fight the autumn wind everywhere on the battlefield, touch as many fish as you can, and flash people when you catch enough benefits!
Thinking of this, he immediately asked people to press those yellow turban thieves over, and when the energy value was fully restored, he began to use the reconnaissance technique one by one.
He has a lot of advantages over those plot characters.
As long as he judged that those people among them were stronger, and then used the reconnaissance technique to identify the attributes, he could pick out some of the good players from them. People need to be treated differently, otherwise their value will not be reflected, Zhao Futu selected more than 50 people from them, and asked them to allocate a little equipment, which can be regarded as joining his command.
As for the rest of the people, Zhao Futu was not prepared to waste rations, nor was he ready to kill innocents indiscriminately, so he directly left them in place to fend for themselves.
Killing these ordinary Yellow Turban thieves has no gain, but will reduce his reputation among these Yellow Turban soldiers.
………………
"Big Boss! There's a village over there, don't you see us? A small leader of the Yellow Turban Thieves who was sent out to investigate ran in front of Zhao Futu and said excitedly.
Zhao Futu led the army all the way to the east, everything he saw along the way was a barren, the fertile fields that were originally cultivated were now overgrown with weeds, and the few villages that occasionally passed by on the road were not the slightest human population, there were only a few wandering wild dogs in the empty Zhuangzi, and the road was full of half-buried white bones, which was a wordless impact for him who lived in a peaceful era!
At first, it was shocking!
But then he saw more and more, but in a day, he was already a little numb.
The result of the Yellow Turban Rebellion was that there were ten rooms and nine emptiness, and these lower-class people, who were more and more oppressed in the past, became more and more crazy when they broke out, and maybe they could be a little restrained at first, but in the end they turned into a group of outright thugs, like locusts crossing the border and wreaking havoc on the land of the Central Plains! If Zhao Futu still had the last glimmer of hope for the Yellow Turban Army at the beginning, then he is now completely desperate.
The Yellow Turban Uprising is bound to fail!
This is simply a weak thing, and it can't be changed no matter what.
Wang Cang, a famous poet of this era, wrote these two sentences in his "Seven Mourning Poems": "When you go out, you can't see anything, and the white bones cover the plain."
This is the scene that Zhao Futu saw all the way.
After a day of walking, this group of people finally saw a populated village, and those Yellow Turban soldiers immediately looked like vicious wolves, and their eyes were green, especially those Yellow Turban thieves, who became even more impatient, and they had to walk a little faster. Once people start to do things, it is difficult to come back, these Yellow Turban soldiers have more or less done some ** plunder, at this time finally encountered a populated village, how can I not have some evil thoughts in my heart?
What's more, they are all some defeated soldiers, and there is not much dry food on their bodies, and many people eat a meal in the morning and start to go hungry at noon. Now that they saw a village, they already had the idea of looting in their hearts!
When Zhao Futu saw this scene, he immediately felt a chill in his heart.
Bang Bang Bang!
As soon as the Yellow Turbans arrived in front of the town, an alarm bell rang above the sentry post set up inside, and then the village gate slowly closed.
There was a commotion in the town, and then there was the sound of the young and strong village soldiers gathering, and then I saw a few archers emerging from the wall of the town, all dressed as hunters, and they were very uneasy when they saw the Yellow Turban Army of more than two hundred people. In this era, there were some village soldiers in various places, and when the troubled times came, people with the same surname and clan gathered together to defend their homeland.
This village is different from the previous one, that is, a wooden wall was built here.
Seeing that the gate over there was about to close, many of the Yellow Turban soldiers who were already hungry and red-eyed rushed over with a roar, and they didn't even have time to wait for Zhao Futu's order. As soon as they rushed out, the mentality of the people of Middle-earth who were essentially conformist was reflected, and the Yellow Turban Army behind them didn't think much about it, so they rushed forward in a swarm! Everyone didn't bring much rations when they dispersed, and the few villages they encountered along the way were deserted, and now they finally met a populated one, and their habitual idea was that Zhao Futu also planned to grab a batch of grain from here.
Because, the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army also did it all the way.
As soon as the Yellow Turban Army rushed, the hunters above became nervous, and the elder who appeared on the wooden wall and looked like the village chief had not had time to speak, and some of the hunters had already begun to shoot arrows to attack. The old man couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene, knowing that things could not be turned back, so he could only swallow back what he wanted to say. His original intention was to discuss with the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army outside, give them some food, and let them let the village go.
But he didn't expect that what he encountered this time was the kind of Yellow Turban Chaos Party without any organizational discipline, and he had already rushed up before he could speak.
In fact.
Zhao Futu's idea was also to ask the village to hand over a batch of grain, and then find a way to gather people to see if they could take a county seat, or attack the urn city of a wealthy clan in a certain place to obtain enough materials. Even if such a village is taken down, there is not much oil and water to speak of, and it is a waste of manpower, not to mention, which also violates his own moral bottom line.
As a modern person, he can't do such a thing as taking people to loot villages.
But he didn't expect that the discipline of these Yellow Turban soldiers had been so low, and he didn't wait for his order, as soon as he saw that the gate of the village was about to close, he rushed up! Even if Zhao Futu had already established a little prestige within this day, these people did not have the slightest sense of discipline, and they had not received any formal training, as soon as they saw the people in front of them rushing forward, they couldn't help but rush forward!
Fighting is inevitable.
Because some of the Yellow Turban soldiers who rushed to the front had already fallen to the ground with arrows, and many people who had no rations on them were already red-eyed, several big men roared angrily and smashed open the gate that had not yet been closed, and the young and strong township soldiers behind the door were strangled together. The only ones who stayed with Zhao Futu were the Yellow Turban wrestlers and some regular Yellow Turban Army, these people all knew a little bit of military discipline and did not rush forward in a swarm!
At this moment, Zhao Futu was already a little disheartened, and he didn't doubt whether such an army could be brought up, would he want to fish in troubled waters on the battlefield and take his own life instead?
But at this time, Nightmare Space gave a hint:
"Contractor No. 1013 triggers the side quest - loot the village! The mission has begun, and nearby officers and soldiers will rush to support after seeing the beacon fire! ”
Soon, a bonfire was lit on the high platform of the village, and a puff of wolf smoke rose up.
