Chapter 36: Attacking the World’s No. 1 Town
Chapter 36: Attacking the World’s No. Town (Part )
Liangzhou, Jincheng County, Liangzhou Village, a female general is training cavalry.
The big horses of Liangzhou roam the world. The chitose of Liangzhou annihilates the bandits; the chitose dances with terror and kills people.
The Xiliang Iron Cavalry roamed through several dynasties and was extremely famous.
The cost of recruiting cavalry for the lord player of Liangzhou is lower than that for the players in the Central Plains. This is an advantage for the lord player of Liangzhou.
But Liangzhou also has disadvantages, that is, the population is small. Moreover, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the Qiang Rebellion was serious, and the Qiang tribes invaded from time to time. Many villages built by players in Liangzhou were destroyed by the Qiang tribes.
Huangfu Gui, Zhang Huan and Duan Jiong, three Liangzhou generals, became famous for their meritorious service in suppressing the Qiang, and were called “Three Mings of Liangzhou” at that time. Among them, Zhang Huan was Dong Zhuo’s superior, and Dong Zhuo also became famous for his meritorious service in suppressing the Qiang rebellion.
However, until the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the Qiang remained powerful.
“My Liangzhou Village is being built at a fast pace, but unfortunately it’s still two to three thousand people short. I need to recruit a Yellow Turban Army as soon as possible, or defeat the Qiang tribe and use them to make up the numbers.”
The head of Liangzhou Village is a female player who practices horse riding and archery while planning a plan to upgrade the town.
The biggest factor hindering her village from upgrading is still the population.
In Jiangdong, Shitou Village, the lord led his troops to attack a Shanyue tribe and plundered 3,000 people back to the village.
“My village has enough population, and I still need a few buildings. I hope it’s not too late. The title of the best town in the world should belong to my Stone Village. From now on, this will be a Stone City.”
The chief of Shitou Village settled Shanyue. The total population of his village exceeded 2, but its prosperity was still a little lacking.
Youzhou, Liaoxi County, Pinglu Village, the lord player who obtained the An Lushan template gathered a group of Xianbei and Wuhuan populations.
Youzhou players, especially those in Liaodong and Liaoxi, also face the problem of population shortage, so they either attack cities or plunder the population of Xianbei and Wuhuan tribes. These tribes are rich in cavalry and are a good source of soldiers.
In Qingzhou, the player ranked first in the Huaxia region rankings, “Qingdi”, stood on the top of the valley, his ink-black hair and light green cape swaying in the mountain breeze.
Five thousand Yellow Turban soldiers from Qingzhou, with their families, were driven into a valley, suffering from hunger and cold. Her troops blocked the entrance to the valley, leaving the Yellow Turban soldiers in a dilemma.
Although this group of Yellow Turban Army had a large number of people, most of them were the elderly, children, women and children, and there were only about a thousand able-bodied men.
The Green Emperor flicked his hair and said, “Recruit another group of Qingzhou Yellow Turbans. My goal is to complete the A-level achievement mission ‘The Birth of Qingzhou Soldiers’, which requires recruiting at least 30 Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, which is still a long way off. The population of my Qingzhou Village is nearly 3, which is far more than the requirements for upgrading the town. I only need a city wall and a few buildings to complete the achievement of ‘The World’s No. Town’.”
In Jizhou, “Xuanyuan” led his troops in a bloody battle, and only after a bloody battle did they repel the Yellow Turban Army.
The main force of the Yellow Turban Army led by Zhang Jue, Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao swept across Jizhou. Thousands of Jizhou lord player villages were razed to the ground by the Yellow Turban Army. Only some powerful villages with the ability to protect themselves, or lords in the wilderness and the Han army’s sphere of influence could survive.
“Damn it, my village is only one or two days away from meeting the upgrade requirements. Now the city wall has been destroyed by the Yellow Turban Army, and it will take three or four days to repair. I hope no village will be upgraded during this period.”
Xuanyuan was very annoyed when he saw the collapsed rammed earth wall.
The defensive power of the primary rammed earth wall was still insufficient, and even the Yellow Turban Army, which lacked large siege equipment, was able to partially destroy it.
Although the defeat of the Yellow Turban Army raised Xuanyuan’s military merit from third to first, it also caused his Dayu Village to miss the opportunity to upgrade on the second day.
The top-ranked lord players in Shu County, Lujiang County, Chenliu County, Nanhai County, Jiuyuan County, Changsha County, etc. are all doing their best to build their territories, trying to obtain the title and rewards of “the best town in the world”.
In Nanyang County, Li Qian handed over the internal affairs of Tiance Village to Deng Zhi and Zhao Xiancai, while Li Qian was on the tower car, watching the battle with Chen Qingzhi, Wei Yan, Fu Zhuo, Cheng Yaojin, Gao Xiang and other generals. Their injuries had not healed yet and they were unable to fight. The battle between the Jingzhou Army and the Yellow Turban Army lasted for a day, but there was still no winner.
The Jingzhou army was undoubtedly more elite and better equipped, but the Yellow Turban army was numerous and, regardless of casualties, they fought the Jingzhou army for a whole day and night.
The Jingzhou general Wen Pin, holding a halberd and sword, rode a war horse and led three thousand heavily armored infantrymen to charge into the Yellow Turban Army, setting off a bloody storm.
The halberd and sword in Wen Pin’s hand moved very fast, and the sword energy shot in all directions. The Yellow Turban soldiers and leaders fell down like grass being cut.
Three thousand heavily armored infantrymen charged forward under the rain of arrows from the Yellow Turban archers. The sword formation formed by rows of long swords was like a meat grinder. The Yellow Turban soldiers, who were only clothed, were crushed along the way, and their corpses were scattered all over the ground.
The rain of arrows from the Yellow Turban archers seemed weak in front of the iron armor, and some heavily armored infantrymen were hit by several arrows but were still alive and well.
The slightly more elite Yellow Turban leaders were only wearing leather armor and were still unable to withstand Wen Pin’s heavily armored legion.
Wen Pin made a massive advance, the morale of the Jingzhou army was greatly boosted, and they launched an all-out attack, and the Yellow Turban Army began to retreat.
“Zhongye is indeed a great general. Zirou, I think the outcome has been decided. We can recapture Wancheng in no time.”
Jingzhou Governor Xu Qiu showed a slightly relieved expression when he saw that Zhang Mancheng’s million-strong Yellow Turban Army was finally on the verge of defeat.
Kuai Liang looked solemn.
The Yellow Turban Army was more tenacious than he had imagined, and their numbers made the outcome unpredictable.
“Humph, if the Yellow Turban Army was so easy to deal with, how could Wancheng be lost?”
Wei Yan crossed his hands in front of his chest and did not even give face to the Governor of Jingzhou.
He fought against Zhang Mancheng’s Nanyang Yellow Turban Army many times, and no one understood the strength of the Nanyang Yellow Turban Army better than him.
Li Qian looked towards the north of the battlefield. Wen Pin’s heavy armored corps was advancing vigorously. The Yellow Turban Army in front of them suddenly retreated rapidly. Eight hundred Yellow Turban warriors with sturdy bodies, wearing iron armor and holding double hammers squeezed out from a group of Yellow Turban soldiers. Behind the eight hundred Yellow Turban warriors, there was a large group of Yellow Turban leaders equipped with heavy armor!
“hiss……”
The officials and generals of Jingzhou who were watching the battle on the watchtower felt their scalps tingling.
After Zhang Mancheng captured Wancheng, he not only obtained war horses and formed a cavalry, but also obtained a batch of heavy armor, recruited Yellow Turban strongmen and equipped the Yellow Turban leaders!
The Yellow Turban Warriors are an eighth-tier troop that can restrain heavily armored troops. When eight hundred Yellow Turban Warriors attacked, Wen Pin was immediately caught in a tough battle.
Even though Wen Pin was a first-rate general, he was unable to face the siege of eight hundred Yellow Turban warriors.
The casualties of the Jingzhou army increased rapidly.
“The blue sky is dead, the yellow sky should be established! Why don’t you obey the will of heaven and submit to our Yellow Turban Army?”
A deep voice sounded, and a Yellow Turban leader with a sturdy build, a scar on his face and a nine-ring knife in his hand appeared, surrounded by other Yellow Turban generals.
As soon as the Yellow Turban leader appeared, the surrounding Yellow Turban soldiers seemed to be energized, screaming and howling, and their offensive became more fierce.
