Chapter 86 Preparing for War
The little rookie never expected that his number one general, Liao Hua, would say such words that would shake the morale of the army!
Moreover, he also took the lead in surrendering the enemy troops. He was timid before fighting and did not even have the slightest courage to resist!
With Liao Hua's surrender, the morale of the soldiers immediately weakened, and everyone put down their weapons.
The soldiers took the initiative to open the city gate of Jiming Town to welcome the king's triumphant return. Who among the people dared not to surrender at this time?
The novice's heart is bleeding, seeing the tall building he built step by step collapse so easily... If I had known better, I would have taken all my soldiers and people to join Ning Mengya. At least I wouldn't be as depressed and disgusting as now. !
When Ning Mengya sent troops to persuade them, the rookie was full of confidence and thought that the alliance formed by himself and four other players could defeat Xia Chao's offensive!
What about the seventh-rate generals? With such a large number of troops, even seventh-rate generals may not be able to defeat them!
But who could have imagined that the alliance they formed would collapse so easily.
No wonder the Six Kingdoms were annexed by the powerful Qin State. The Six Kingdoms and Qin were both vassals. Their power was weaker than Qin, but they still had the potential to win without bribery. However, the Six Kingdoms perished. Why, it was not disadvantageous except the army. If the war is not good, the disadvantage lies in bribing Qin!
The historical stories are also vividly reflected in the game. Are these players not the original kings of the Six Kingdoms?
The rookie sighed, and then logged off, announcing that all his hard work from the closed beta to now were all wasted at this moment!
……
The player Linxia stood on the low city of Jiming Town with his hands behind his back. This time, he subdued more than 200 soldiers without spending a single soldier. He also obtained all the resources of Jiming Town and replenished his troops and supplies. .
All this is because she was lucky enough to recruit a powerful seventh-rate general, Meng Huo!
At this time, Meng Huo stood side by side with Linxia on the top of the city, looking towards the west, and said calmly: "My lord, those four players are already in our possession. Now we can take advantage of the victory to pursue them, and things will change later. ”
After this group of players return to defense, they will definitely find ways to move and find new territories to develop... We cannot give them this opportunity, we must annex them as soon as possible and absorb their power!
"How does General Meng think I should respond now?"
Meng Huo said: "Lord, I have sent Jiang Qin and others to lead troops to attack the other four territories. Soon these four territories will be in our pocket."
Linxia nodded: "General Meng has thought carefully. With General Meng here, we will soon conquer Luoyang and become the princes of the Central Plains!"
Meng Huo said lightly: "Lord, what we want is this world. Unifying the troubled world is always the ambition of the last general!"
Linxia: "Okay! Let's go to Luoyang first, then the world!"
Having said that, the player Linxia sneered in her heart. She has not yet recruited a higher-level general. As long as she can recruit a first-class general like Guan Yu, Meng Huo will be nothing in her heart.
However, at the current stage, she must rely on Meng Huo to defeat Luoyang. This is her goal. If she wants to dominate the world in the future, she will definitely not be able to rely on Meng Huo!
……
Ning Mengya entered the game and came to the Dameng Town meeting hall.
As expected, she discovered that Diamondback's territory had been annexed, along with the territories of four other players around Jiming Town.
Now the Xia Dynasty's sphere of influence has almost included the sphere of influence 150 miles southeast of Dameng Town.
After the Xia Dynasty annexed these territories, its army had already marched towards the north. In other words, the Xia Dynasty's strategic intention was to annex the entire north first and then send its troops south.
The direction of their march was undoubtedly towards Dameng Town.
Guo Tu and Zhang Zhao looked at the map and pondered for a moment. Zhang Zhaocai said solemnly: "It should take less than half a month for the opponent's troops to arrive at our doorstep."
Guo Tu also said: "This time the Xia Dynasty annexed Jiming Town and other territories, and I don't know how much its military strength has been expanded. The people who come this time are not evil!" Ning Mengya had just sent a private message to the rookie on the forum.
She told everyone: "The general Liao Hua of Jiming Town surrendered with all his troops intact."
"If the other four territorial lords surrender without a fight, then the Xia Dynasty's maximum strength should have reached two thousand by now!"
Ning Mengya glanced at Zhuge Liang solemnly, and then said: "The general of the Xia Dynasty is the seventh-rate general Meng Huo. He also has two eighth-rate generals and one ninth-rate general. If all the generals from the other four places surrender, , then she has... one seventh-rate general, two eighth-rate generals, five ninth-rate generals, and two thousand troops!"
This configuration is almost invincible!
However, Dameng Town is now fully equipped with only one eighth-rate military general, Zhuge Liang, and two ninth-rate generals, Pan Feng and Zhong Hui. The gap between them is really too big.
Even if Zhuge Liang was promoted to a seventh-rate general within this half month, there would still be a huge disparity in strength.
At this time, Zhuge Liang's expression became slightly serious.
If the opponent had only a thousand troops and one seventh-rate and two eighth-rate generals before, Zhuge Liang would still be confident that he could win, but now the situation has obviously become worse.
Zhang Zhao and Guo Tu were discussing the defense plan, and the two counselors were extremely anxious at this time.
Zhuge Liang signaled them not to be anxious and to think of countermeasures slowly, and at the same time said to Ning Mengya: "We must upgrade the third-level town as soon as possible and recruit the sixth-level barracks to full capacity!"
Even if the sixth-level barracks is full, it will only have a thousand troops, which can no longer solve the current predicament.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
But now that's all they can do.
Ning Mengya nodded and said: "Today I will upgrade the town to the third level, strengthen the defense capabilities of the city wall and recruit troops!"
Zhuge Liang said to Guo Tu: "Mr. Guo, please cooperate with the lord to distribute the coins reasonably so that there will be no shortage of coins."
"Here!" Guo Tu held his hand.
After Zhuge Liang finished his instructions, he continued to start his own hunting mode to increase his experience. No matter what, he should be promoted to a seventh-rate general first, so that he could have a better chance of winning.
After several days of development, the coins of Dameng Town have also reached 142 gold coins, 97 silver coins, and 48 copper coins. More than 1,600 villagers are obtaining resources relatively quickly.
Ning Mengya immediately used 100 gold coins to upgrade Dameng Town. After upgrading to the third-level town, the barracks was also upgraded to the sixth level.
At the same time, the city wall of Dameng Town can be increased by 1 meter, bringing the total height to 6 meters. This kind of city wall already requires ladders and other siege equipment to land.
But the problem is that raising the height by one meter requires another 100 gold coins. Now there are only 42 gold coins left in Dameng Town. The coins are obviously not enough. NPCs will need to be recruited in the future, and the coins are even more scarce.
In desperation, Guo Tu could only give up raising the city wall and focus on recruiting first.
Ning Mengya is also very nervous. Now she has only three recruitment opportunities. Three times...can she recruit higher-level generals?
