Chapter 256 107: The Army Attacks the City

What does an army of 300,000 mean?
Most of the players can only think of the dark clouds pressing down on the city, threatening to destroy it.

More than a month ago, when version 0.75 was updated, players learned that a coalition of barbarians was gathering and marching south, intending to destroy Yancheng.

And when that day really came, looking at the endless and dark army of barbarians with no end in sight, even though the players could be resurrected unlimitedly, they were still shocked by this scene.

"Is this an army of 300,000? To be honest, I just now realized how terrifying a number of 300,000 is!"

"I feel like I can't breathe. There are 300,000 soldiers, and it's all black and dense. I can hardly see the end of the army at a glance!"

"Three hundred thousand troops, three hundred thousand people, a spit from each of them can completely overwhelm us!"

"Now, I finally have an idea of ​​the number of people. No wonder it has taken a month since the Barbarian Army marched south. The deployment and preparation of food and fodder for these 300,000 troops all take a lot of time."

"The sound of enemies singing from all sides, the king is exhausted. Yan City is surrounded by barbarians. They have surrounded us and left us no room to escape!"

"I feel like my whole body is shaking, and I have goose bumps. Brothers, there are so many enemies, 150 times more. As long as we have more than players and each of us can kill , we can wipe out all the enemies!"

"Go to bed, you killed 150 people by yourself. Let's not talk about anything else. Do you have resurrection coins?"

"We have worked so hard over the past month, and even wiped out the Yiqu tribe a few days ago, but we didn't expect that we still couldn't defend Yancheng!"

"The closed beta is about to end. We will never be able to defend Yancheng!"

On the city wall of Yancheng, outside the city gate of Yancheng.

Countless players looked at the dense army of barbarians in the distance and were extremely shocked.

Most of the players had never seen an army of 3,000, let alone 300,000.

Even some veteran players have only ever seen a thousand-cavalry raid.

The one thousand cavalrymen at that time were already eye-opening for the players, and now the three hundred thousand troops made the players feel extremely excited!
"However, although!"

"I still want to say that this is a really big production, a big scene, I can vaguely feel the graphics card burning!"

As an envoy of Yancheng, Gui Bi of the Zongheng family looked at the 300,000 barbarian army slowly approaching from a distance and said in a deep voice. Beside him, Su Shan looked at the Yancheng army that completely surrounded Yancheng with an indifferent expression.

In the face of absolute strength, all tactics are futile, especially in this kind of city defense battle. Even if Su Shan had other tactics, it would be of no avail.

“Is it possible that for the officials of “The Hundred Family”, this scene and this production are the simplest and easiest?”

Zhuge Wang on the side also shrugged: "Even holographic games have been produced, this kind of scene is simply child's play!"

"Three hundred thousand soldiers, even if it's just Bai, they will have to kill until their hands are numb!"

"Why can 193777 people think of Bai Qi? Shouldn't 1945815 people think of Bai Qi?" Zhuge Wang was silent for a moment, his expression serious: " people can make me think of , can make me think of ."

"Clam?"

"Zhuge Wangye, I feel your heart is redder than mine!"

Several players on the wall looked at the barbarian army slowly approaching from a distance. The laughter gradually disappeared, replaced by extreme seriousness and earnestness.

The feeling of despair brought by the 300,000-strong army is too strong, especially when Yileimiao, Zhang Xiaoti, Niu Bu and other high-level players are not there, which makes people feel even more uncertain!

"How long do you think we can hold out? Can we hold out until Yileimiao lures the drought demon over here?"

"Who can explain this clearly? We are the only two thousand people guarding Yancheng. We have no defenses and no weapons to protect the city. If the enemy charges, we will be broken into!"

"If the enemy attacks with all their might, we will be considered successful if we can hold out for two hours!"

All the players have no hope of defending Yancheng. After all, Yancheng is just a small city. It has no perfect fortifications and no Mohist mechanical devices. It is not easy to defend Yancheng.

But, we have to defend it even if we can’t!
Running away from the battlefield has never been a player's character!

"Brothers, let me take the lead!"

"Kill as many as you can!"

When all the players were discussing in a low voice, the first player to stand up was Zheng Sanshui.

Zheng Sanshui jumped down from the city wall of Yancheng in a very cool manner. He waved to a group of players behind him. In an instant, a group of players immediately jumped down from the city wall and walked towards the watchtower in the distance.

Zheng Sanshui is one of the few people in Yancheng who have reached the state of self-cultivation.

In the battle with the elite of the Xianyun tribe and a few cavalrymen of Yiqiu a few days ago, Zheng Sanshui successfully shot and killed an enemy in the Self-cultivation Realm, was promoted to the Self-cultivation Realm, and became one of the top players of "Bai Jia Zhu Dao".

In the game "Bai Jia Zhu Dao", current players are divided into four levels.

Among them, Niu Bu, who is at the Qi Family Realm, is a unique existence, followed by the top players at the Self-cultivation Realm.

Below the Self-cultivation Realm are veteran players of the [Soldier] profession, and the rest are new players who have just entered the game and have not yet completed their job change.

As a player who has entered the realm of self-cultivation, Niu Bu has mastered not only the magical power of [Shooting the Halberd at the Gate], but also a new magical power [Xi Ye Cheng Gong].

[Xi Ye Cheng Gong] can be regarded as a passive skill. [Xi Ye Cheng Gong] can use the power of ancestors/heroic spirits to shoot the strongest arrow in life.

Zheng Sanshui's target [Xi Ye Cheng Gong] was not the heroes on Earth OL, such as Lu Bu, Huang Zhong, Li Guang and others, but Yancheng's main general Guo Xiaoding.

Although Guo Xiaoding was a soldier of the formation school, he also mastered the military skills. As a governor, even if he was not particularly proficient in bows and arrows, the power of his arrows was far greater than that of Zheng Sanshui.

"You damn cowards, I'm going to shoot you to death today!"

"One resurrection coin costs 14 yuan. I have to kill two people for my life to make a profit!"

After the initial wave of crazy buying by Niu Bu, the price of the Resurrection Coin went up directly. At present, the price of the Resurrection Coin on consignment at [Baobao Pavilion] has reached 14 yuan, and there is still an upward trend.

The sentry tower was built by Zheng Sanshui and other players a month ago.

The height of the watchtower was not particularly high. Zheng Sanshui stood in the watchtower, looking at the slowly approaching enemy with his eyes slightly narrowed.

For archers at the learning stage, with the blessing of spiritual energy, the best shooting range is about 300 meters.

After entering the realm of self-cultivation, the range increased to nearly one thousand meters.

Two miles is within Zheng Sanshui's shooting range. Within this range, Zheng Sanshui can accurately hit the target and display his strongest shooting skills. "From a thousand meters away, the gun is fast. Within a thousand meters, my bow is fast and accurate!"

In Earth OL, even a sniper rifle has difficulty hitting the target at a distance of a thousand meters.

But in "Bai Jia Zhu Dao", Zheng Sanshui is very confident that he can hit the enemy a thousand meters away!
The barbarian army was slowly approaching Yancheng. When they arrived ten kilometers outside Yancheng, they stopped.

"so far!"

"I can't shoot from this distance!"

Niu Bu's maximum distance is one thousand meters, and ten kilometers is already ten times his maximum distance. At this distance, he simply cannot shoot the enemy.

"Yancheng!"

Ten kilometers away, several gray-haired old men walked out of the army. The leader was wearing a gorgeous silk robe, dragging a dark green jade bottle in his left hand and holding a staff in his right hand. He looked through space and looked at Yancheng, his voice was very light:
“I didn’t expect that Yancheng would recruit so many new troops right under my nose!”

"I originally thought that Yancheng's new army only had a few hundred people, but now it seems that Yancheng's new army has a full two thousand people. It's really surprising!"

"Decades have passed, and the Zhenbei Army, who have been living in Yancheng, have not forgotten their mission!"

Cheng Youwei led his troops on the city wall of Yancheng. The new Yancheng troops outside the city gate and on the watchtower were quite surprised that the Yancheng Town Beijun had recruited so many new Yancheng troops right under his nose.

The northern army stationed in Yancheng Town has far-reaching ambitions!
"Guo Xiaoding, we've been friends for many years, why don't you come out and have a chat?"

Cheng Youwei's voice was very soft, but it seemed as if he was speaking into the player's ear. As Cheng Youwei's voice fell, Guo Xiaoding, dressed in a plain robe and looking like a scholar, appeared silently on the city wall of Yancheng.

The players who were watching the fun around quickly made way for Yancheng Lord General Guo Xiaoding. With his appearance, more than 40 remaining Yancheng Town Northern Army also stood on the city wall together.

The Zhenbei Army of Yancheng originally had 112 people, but now there are only more than 40 people left.

Moreover, among these more than forty people, all of them are veterans in the Self-cultivation Realm, and there is not a single veteran in the Family Gathering Realm.

"General Guo, long time no see!"

Cheng Youwei took a quick glance and saw through Yancheng's strength. He narrowed his eyes slightly and greeted Guo Xiaoding with a smile.

"If I remember correctly, it has been more than 40 years since we last met. When I saw you today, General Guo didn't look very well."

Cheng Youwei led the group to chat with Guo Xiaoding. Guo Xiaoding looked calm. He looked at the 300,000 barbarian troops that surrounded Yancheng, and the barbarian Chanyus of the 17 tribes in the northern border gathered together, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Since the first day I arrived in the Northern Frontier, I heard that there are eighteen tribes in the Northern Frontier. Among them, the Yiqu tribe is the best at raising horses. The cavalry under their command caused us a lot of trouble back then.

Now that you northern border barbarian tribes have joined forces, why is the Yiqu tribe missing?"

Guo Xiaoding's words made the faces of the originally smiling khans of the northern border tribes change instantly, especially the khans of the tribes whose strength was not as good as Yiqiu, who looked at Guo Xiaoding with their eyes rolling around.

What does Guo Xiaoding mean by saying this now?
"You have countless elite soldiers under your Zhenbei Army, and there are seven generals from the Qi Family Realm. Why haven't any of them come yet?"

Cheng Youwei led a tit-for-tat response, and it was not easy for Yancheng to massacre Yiqiu. They also paid a huge price.

Cheng Youwei and his army understood part of the process of the Yiqu tribe's destruction. In order to kill the old Chanyu of the Yiqu tribe, the Qijiajing of the Yancheng Town North Army dispatched four Qijiajing troops, and even with their last burst of energy, they almost killed the old Chanyu of the Yiqu tribe.

Now, just by looking at the troops around Yancheng Guo Xiaoding, you can know that it is not so easy for Yancheng to exterminate the Yiqu tribe.

"In your rear, slaughtering your own people!"

Among the Yancheng Town North Army, some are on the Sushen tribe side, including Coach Zhang and Coach Li. "

"It doesn't matter. Just two Qi family members and dozens of veterans. They can't make any waves!"

Cheng Youwei was naturally aware of what had happened to the Sushen tribe, and he had already sent generals to deal with the Yancheng Zhenbei Army that suddenly appeared in the rear.

"Oh? That's a pity, but being able to slaughter a bunch of you barbarians before dying is worthy of the name of the Northern Zhen Army!"

Guo Xiaoding's expression remained calm. This was the fate of the Zhenbei Army. To die on the battlefield and at the hands of barbarians was their final destination.

"General Guo, you keep calling them barbarians. Do you really think the Imperial Shang Dynasty is still the same as before?"

"Now the Imperial Shang Dynasty is in constant turmoil, the princes are in chaos, wars are everywhere, and the people are living in misery. In comparison, our Northern Border Tianshen Tribe, the people are stable and happy, I don't know how many times better than the people of your Imperial Shang Dynasty."

"If we are barbarians, what are you? Animals?"

"Manyi" is a derogatory term used by the Shang Dynasty to refer to the surrounding tribes.

As the Chanyu of one of the northern border tribes, Cheng Youwei would feel angry every time he heard others call him a barbarian.

As a human being, he also has hands and feet, can speak the official language of the Shang Dynasty, and can study the various schools of thought. So why was he called a barbarian by the Shang Dynasty?

Why does the Imperial Shang Dynasty look down on him and his tribe!
"Your people live in peace and contentment? Hahahaha, what a peaceful and contentment!"

"It's only by plundering the people of our Imperial Shang Dynasty that we can live in peace and contentment!"

Guo Xiaoding looked down on Cheng Youwei and his army: "Barbarians are barbarians. Don't think that you can get rid of your barbarian status just because you can mobilize 300,000 troops."

"You barbarians, you originally had the opportunity to naturalize in my Imperial Shang Dynasty and become my citizens.

But your Chanyu killed the great scholars of my Imperial Shang Dynasty, preventing them from educating you and preventing you from becoming the subjects of the Imperial Shang Dynasty."

"The status of barbarians you are today was not imposed on you by my Imperial Shang Dynasty, but by your Chanyu. It was he who prevented you from becoming citizens of the Imperial Shang Dynasty!"

"You are the people of the Celestial Empire. What an honorable status, what a supreme glory. But you, the Chanyu, have destroyed it."

"Now, he comes to question me, asking me why I call you barbarians!"

"Ah!

It's really ridiculous!"

The great Confucian scholars of the Shang Dynasty were very keen on educating the barbarians.

Only by being educated by great Confucian scholars, identifying with the Imperial Shang Dynasty from the heart, abandoning their own vulgar customs and language, and fully accepting the etiquette and culture of the Celestial Empire, can they gradually become naturalized as citizens of the Imperial Shang Dynasty.
