Thick smoke rose everywhere, the fire soared, and the entire county seat of Yixian County was completely plunged into a raging fire, which was also completely due to the pigtail soldiers of the Eight Banners, who did not know how much wood they had piled up in the county seat of Yixian, so it was easy to succeed in arson, such a ferocious fire, directly sealed the east city gate, the west city gate and the south city gate, so that Zhou Yue and them could have a buffer for a period of timeSmall|said||(Starter)

Of course, before setting the fire, the county seat of Yixian County was also looted, and a lot was gained, but Zhou Yue didn't have time to pay attention to it at present, because the two hundred elite Eight Banner cavalry who came to the aid quickly from Heicheng in Jinzhou City had already appeared, but they obviously didn't expect that Yixian would fall in such a short time, plus Zhou Yue's decision to set fire to the city was very decisive, which made them have to temporarily stop outside Yixian County and wait for the follow-up Eight Banners reinforcements to arrive!

But Zhou Yue would not give them this opportunity, and as soon as he gave the order, he took Zhao Xiaoer, Xiao Jun, Wang Huang and the elite of the two hundred heavy shield battalions, spear teams and archery teams out of the city!

Although there are two hundred elite cavalry of the Eight Banners plus a white-armored soldier, this strength is far more than Fang Cai's battle, but Zhou Yue is very confident, because after Fang Cai's resource tilt, it is not an exaggeration to describe the entire heavy shield battalion with a bird gun for a cannon, the overall attribute of an average of 800 points, plus the lv4 level protection aura released by Liang Xiaoxue, their total attribute has reached more than 900 points, and any person who stands up can resist the skill of cavalry charge!

Of course, it's just that, if you are attacked by the white armor soldiers, you will also be killed instantly!

Not only the Heavy Shield Battalion, Liu Yue has already obtained the armor-piercing arrow skill, although she has not yet tried how strong her attack power is, but at least she should be able to deal more than 300 points of damage!

And among the workshop and the equipment dropped, there were more than forty mulberry bows harvested, so that sixty-two of the seventy people in the entire archery team were equipped with this kind of deadly mulberry bow, and the power of such a volley can be imagined.

Similarly, all twenty-four members of Mao Yu's spear team were replaced with stainless steel spears that had been refined to four or five stars, and this strength should not be underestimated!

The elite cavalry of the two hundred and eight banners obviously did not expect Zhou Yue and them to dare to go out of the city to fight, but they were not stupid, and they would not underestimate Zhou Yue and them, because the previous battlefield was in front of them, so these two hundred and eight banner elite cavalry actually did not charge, but drove the war horse, trotting all the way in circles, and at the same time constantly throwing heavy arrows from a thousand meters away, trying to use this harassment tactic to win!

I have to say that this tactic is really effective, and Zhou Yue is also a headache, because the whole army will attack it, those Eight Banners cavalry will not give you a chance to engage head-on at all, turn around and run, always maintain a distance of one thousand meters, if you stop in place, they are like flies, turn left, turn right, seize the opportunity, you can cause some damage to Zhou Yue and them!

For a while, Zhou Yue knew that there was some trouble, in this flat field, if he was entangled by such a scoundrel guy, the consequences would not be fun, he had to bite off the meat on their bodies in one bite, as for returning to the county seat of Yixian County, but he must be in the arms of these Eight Banner Cavalry, because a large number of reinforcements are coming from Heicheng in Jinzhou City and Heicheng in Chaoyang City!

"The heavy shield battalion is behind, the archers are in front, slowly retreat to the north gate!"

As a last resort, Zhou Yue had to order everyone to temporarily retract to the north gate of Yixian County to find another way, fortunately, they also need time to rest now, in the previous battle, they killed at least nearly two thousand cloth slaves, and there were more than five hundred pig iron ingots dropped, and one hundred and twenty pieces of primary forged steel, these things all require a lot of strength to refine, and it only took four hundred pig iron ingots to refine for everyone in the heavy shield camp.

At this time, Zhou Yue was also ruthless, and gave an order, ordering all the mulberry bows of the archery team to be refined to five stars, striving to greatly improve the long-range attack ability of the archery team, and at the same time, everyone seized the time to rest and wait for the next big battle.

At this time, with a little bit of leisure, Liu Yue and Deng Jia brought a tall old man with gray hair and wrinkled faces to see Zhou Yue.

"See the lord, this is my father, and he is also the patriarch of my Deng family, and now I am here to thank the lord for leading the troops to rescue my family!"

Deng Jia opened his mouth very sincerely, and at this time, Zhou Yue suddenly remembered that he had rescued Deng Jia's clansmen, why did this kid still not see loyalty?

However, this question Zhou Yue can only hide in his heart, and now he already knows that these neutral forces that appear with the black city must not be regarded as NPCs, they are also human beings, and they are very smart.

"Huh! It's not that exaggerated, speaking of which, we have gained a lot, but I wonder if your people have ever suffered casualties? ”

"Thank you for the care of the city lord, eighty-five old and young women and children from my Deng family, all of them are fine!" At this time, Deng Jia's father spoke, his tone was calm, and he didn't feel nervous at all, which made people sound like an illusion, that is, this inconspicuous-looking old guy has a world in his chest.

"Now the situation outside the city, the old man already knows, the old saying, the grace of a drop of water, when the spring reciprocates, the city lord in order to save my Deng family, trapped in this dangerous place, is our fault, now the old and old, but there are still some people in the clan who dare to fight, willing to repay the city lord for his kindness!" The old man said very naturally, his eyes were blazing, and then he bowed to Zhou Yue very solemnly, and almost at the same time, a message also appeared in Zhou Yue's mind.

"Number 1802093123, the neutral force Deng family is willing to take refuge in you, do you agree?"

Needless to say? Zhou Yue had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, if it weren't for this, how could he have traveled hundreds of miles to attack the hinterland of the Eight Banners Army in Yixian County?

After choosing to agree, another piece of information appeared in Zhou Yue's mind.

"No. 1802093123, you have won the gratitude of the eighty-five people of the neutral Deng family, and the loyalty of the Deng family to you has reached diehard, the people's hearts have increased by 5 points, and the reputation of Chishan City has increased by 5 points."

Looking at this information, Zhou Yue was excited on the one hand, and felt so weird on the other hand, this Nima's is really like a game! However, the smoky county town in the distance and the bloody smell in the air reminded him not to fantasize, not to dream, one negligence is death!

At this time, Deng Jia, who had never been loyal, finally showed loyalty, so it seems that he and Deng Yi are advancing and retreating with the entire family.

As for Deng Jia's father, Deng Kui, he arched his hand at this time and said: "My lord, my Deng family is also the inheritance of generations of craftsmen, and now there is a secret map of offensive and defensive weapons dedicated to the lord!" ”

As he spoke, Deng Kui took out an object from his sleeve in a trembling manner, looking very much like a painting scroll, very ancient, Zhou Yue was very curious, took it and took a look, but was suddenly surprised!

"Eight ox crossbow drawings, can be made zuò eight ox crossbows, you need an intermediate workshop, intermediate craftsmen can make zuò, each cost 100 gold."

This turned out to be the process of building the Eight Bull Crossbow, although Zhou Yue didn't understand it, but he didn't dare to despise it at all, this thing is very domineering, the attack effect should not be weaker than the catapult, and it is more suitable for moving on the battlefield, if he has such an Eight Bull Crossbow now, can he still use those Eight Banners to blockade it?

Zhou Yue put away the blueprints of the eight-ox crossbow, and solemnly thanked Deng Kui, and asked a little about the composition of the Deng family, and finally learned that the Deng family now has twelve junior craftsmen and one intermediate craftsman, but the only ones who can fight are the thirteen people who took refuge in Zhou Yue before Deng Jia and Deng B, and the rest are all old and weak, but Zhou Yue is already very satisfied, and specially instructed Liu Yue to take care of it, and at the same time allow the Deng family to choose a hundred people from the rescued hard labor as a part.

sent Deng Kui away, and it was Liu Yue's turn to report on the harvest of the county seat of Yixian.

"Brother Zhou, this time, maybe we can form a cavalry team, we killed the one hundred elite cavalry of the Eight Banners before, and harvested a total of thirty-two war horses, and then we found a stable in the county seat of Yixian, in which there are forty good war horses, another hundred horses, in addition, we also dropped twenty-three riding skill books, plus the twelve cavalry before us, we can already organize into thirty-five cavalry!"

Liu Yue said excitedly, Zhou Yue was also overjoyed when she heard it, thought about it, and said: "In this case, transfer all the twenty-four members of Mao Yu's spear team to the cavalry team, and let them train their riding skills as soon as possible, they are not useful in this battle at the moment, but when we capture the Red Mountain Black City and fight against the Yellow Turban Army, it will play a vital role."

Next, Liu Yue reported the harvest in the residence of the white armor soldiers, this guy is also the head of the Eight Banners in Yixian County, naturally he has some net worth, although some were robbed by the rebels, but the rest is also considerable, a total of twelve gold, 300 pig iron ingots, twenty primary forged steel, three complete gems, thirty antique vases or something, these things are all tips can be sold to merchants.

Hearing this, Zhou Yue suddenly remembered that there should be a neutral businessman in the county seat of Yixian, but he should not be burned to death by that fire, but Liu Yue had already paid attention to this matter, but unfortunately, he never saw the shadow of a neutral businessman.

Zhou Yue was also helpless in this regard, it should have been his act of ordering the city to be set on fire in the county seat of Yixian County that scared the neutral businessman away.

Next, Zhou Yue and Liu Yue went to see the rescued slave slaves, there were more than 1,000 people in these hard labors, which were rescued before, bringing Zhou Yue a total of 17 points of popular hearts and 17 points of prestige in the Red Mountain Black City, but what he was more concerned about now was whether he could select hundreds of soldiers who could fight from these hard labors.

It's just that this circle came down, but it was a big disappointment, because these hard laborers are basically all level five, weak and pitiful in all aspects, and they look like flocks of frightened little sheep, who will not do anything except kneel and kowtow, it is very suitable for them to be slaves, but as warriors, forget it!
