Volume 3: Rise Chapter 166 Take the initiative
As a veteran selector, it's time to speculate on the content of the task yourself.
And now is the right time.
Although there are no mission hints in this special space, it is not difficult to speculate on the upcoming mission based on the clues we have so far.
At the same time, in order to ensure that his guess was generally not wrong, Jiang Ningyuan had already asked Zhao Yu to use his own speed to investigate the situation of several surrounding villages.
Even if the situation allows, Zhao Yu will go to the territory of the lord next door after this to see if he can find out the enemy's approximate course of action.
In addition, Jiang Ningyuan also agreed with Kurosawa Nao on how to prepare for the village in front of him.
First of all, it is naturally defense, the four mud walls obviously do not have much protection, and ordinary adults can collapse with a few hard hits, which must be strengthened.
The second is the investigation, you can't wait for others to feel under your nose before you can react, right?
Although for Jiang Ningyuan and the others, this point did not pose any threat to them, but if a large number of enemies appeared quietly, it was difficult to guarantee that they would not cause any major casualties.
This refers to the inhabitants of the village.
He wasn't sure if keeping the villagers safe was part of the mission's requirements, but speculated that it would affect the final evaluation of the mission, otherwise the rules wouldn't have created so many people.
Wouldn't it be much more convenient to directly get a special space to conquer monsters?
In the same way, the filming crew and others who were involved in this special space together should also be a part of the final evaluation.
Jiang Ningyuan speculated that it should be roughly divided into three situations, the first is naturally that no one dies to get the highest score, and the second is that some casualties can get fewer scores.
As for the last case, it should be that in the case of heavy casualties or total death of the personnel in need of protection, not only will they not receive a positive score, but they may not be punished before they are judged to have failed their mission.
As for whether the rules really have this task......
No one can be 100% sure of this, but it is better to believe that it is not credible, and if there is a task in such a situation, and they turn a blind eye, then they will have to bear the punishment in vain.
So after a period of discussion, Jiang Ningyuan and the others decided to follow the most troublesome, but also the safest way, that is, to protect all the villagers and members of the filming team.
Near noon, looking at the several cars and motorcycles that were moving, several people immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Now there should be no problem in terms of detection, and ordinary horses naturally can't catch up with these modern crafted products.
By the way, in order to convince the crew to help, they didn't spend a lot of words, otherwise even if they had these things, they wouldn't have been able to launch them.
Well...... Except for Xu Lin and Su Yingying, no one in the team knew how to drive.
"The next thing is to wait."
Jiang Ningyuan let out a sigh, and then muttered to himself.
Now they have basically done everything they can, and now they are waiting for the news that Zhao Yu will bring back, or if there is any hostile lord's army to find them.
Of course, there is a high probability that another group of robbers will appear.
Other than that, the little thing they could do was to train the young people in the village and prepare as many supplies as possible.
However, these things don't need to be worried about by Jiang Ningyuan and others, and naturally there are samurai such as Kurosawa to do it for them.
Maybe you can't count on these ordinary samurai in frontal combat, but if you only train young and strong and provide some support, it can be very easy to use.
"But with so many mouths all at once, will there not be enough food in the village?"
Su Yingying suddenly asked, her face a little worried.
And such doubts are naturally not unreasonable, after all, the territory next door is already poor enough to start a war, listening to Kurosawa Nao, those people even eat all the bark and grass roots.
Fortunately, this concern was quickly erased, and the food in the village was so rich that even a hundred or ten people could support it for a few months.
And the crops in the field will be harvested in a month or two.
"I still need to do some preparation, I always feel that the task will not be so simple."
On the way back to the village chief's courtyard, Jiang Ning couldn't help but groan.
It's also a special space, and in terms of the difficulty of the current task, I'm afraid it's not as good as even the D-level independent space at the ordinary point.
And according to his intuition, his heart was faintly covered with a layer of haze.
There is a great smell of mountain rain coming and the wind is full of buildings.
"It's been more than twelve hours since the space opened."
Su Yingying was also worried: "According to the practice of normal independent spaces, the duration will not exceed twelve or twenty-four hours under normal circumstances. ”
In other words, if there are no accidents, they have less than ten hours left.
In this time, the difficulties that everyone has to face will explode in one go, and the difficulty will also increase rapidly.
This has to be said that even for Jiang Ningyuan, it is a great test.
After another five or six hours of such peace and sound, Zhao Yu, who had gone out, returned with a heart-sinking news.
Because of the wise decision of the lord of Maoshan, a large number of samurai rushed to the border, causing most of the robbers who came to return in vain, so the next door decisively and directly started the backup plan.
Both - the whole army attacked!
At this time, the robbers pretended to be by the hungry people had been collected and became auxiliary armies, and a large number of the lord's direct army no longer hid their bodies and began to attack the Maoshan Lord.
According to what Zhao Yu saw, at this time, there were already three villages supported by samurai, which were broken by a large number of troops and bandit groups composed of hungry people, and there were few survivors who escaped, and almost all of them were slaughtered.
"Now these vanguard troops are resting in three villages, and it is estimated that they will disperse and attack the surrounding villages tomorrow."
Zhao Yu said in a deep voice, and at the same time informed that the village where they were located also belonged to the scope of the other party's attack.
Hearing this, Jiang Ning glanced at his watch from afar, and at this time, there were only about six hours left before the twenty-four-hour time limit.
It soon dawned on him that instead of waiting for the deadline to approach and the task rapidly increasing in difficulty, resulting in a sudden explosion of situations that he needed to face, he would better solve some of the crises first.
"Yingying, you take Da Wu and Xiao Wu to assist in the defense, and Lao Xu, you are responsible for eliminating possible threats."
Jiang Ningyuan's eyes flashed, and then he arranged: "Zhao Yu, you are responsible for solving the small troops of the two villages on the left and right, and the big army in the middle will be handed over to me to deal with." ”
"Strive to deal with some of the unstable factors before the more difficult ones appear!"
Hearing this, several people nodded their heads.
Their purpose at this time is very simple, that is, to eliminate the local power as much as possible, so that even if they fail to complete the task directly, they can make the final outbreak less violent before the time limit for opening the space arrives.
