Chapter 7: The Thieves Attack

"Awesome! Brother Shang Ji is really the dragon and phoenix among people, and he has reached this point in just half a month, and his future is limitless! ”。

Li Taining, who still has rich life experience, reacted first and exclaimed.

"Mr. Li is over, Ji is just good luck, and he deserves Mr. Li's praise." Shang Ji is really not very proud of his growth rate, a warrior who has fought for half his life is like a fish in water in this kind of cold weapon game, even the army elite in reality is far worse than Shang Ji.

"Are the Shang brothers interested in going out of the village to carry out activities? There is a battle to be fought at the moment, I wonder if the Shang brothers are interested? Of course, this reward is definitely indispensable to the Shang brothers. ”

Li Taining invited with some urgency.

"Oh? Specifically, what kind of battle? Who is the enemy? How big? Shang Ji asked with interest.

Seeing that Shang Ji seemed to be more interested, Li Taining immediately introduced: "Brother Shang doesn't know if he's heard of Heifeng Village?" ”

"Black Wind Village? Could it be the Black Wind Village on the Black Wind Mountain? ”

Youzhou Liaodong County area of the border plug, perennial face foreign threats, the people here are fierce, coupled with the increasingly corrupt court, the people are not happy, provoked Youzhou thieves everywhere. Baiyun Village is located in Wangquan County, Liaodong County, Youzhou, and this Black Wind Village is the largest and strongest bandit force in Wangquan County.

It is said that there are more than 1,000 people in Heifeng Village, most of the bandits are third-order bandits, and their big leaders are military generals who enter the stream, coupled with the dangerous terrain of Heifeng Village, Wangquan County has been encircled and suppressed three times and have returned, which has fueled the arrogance of Heifeng Village.

The above information is all about the former thief, who is the current merchant chaser - Liu Meng, revealed, as the former lowest-level robber minion, Heifeng Village is an idol-like existence in Liu Meng's eyes, of course, he knows it quite well.

"Oh? It turns out that Brother Shang has also heard of Black Wind Village? Li Taining glanced at Shang Ji with some surprise, and continued: "Black Wind Village has defeated the encirclement and suppression of the government three times in a row, and the ambition of its big village master, Black Whirlwind Zhang Huan, has skyrocketed, and he has begun to expand his power in a big way, and recently the tentacles of Black Wind Village have extended to the vicinity of Baiyun Village. ”

"As the saying goes, how can you allow others to snore on the side of the couch, the tentacles of this black wind village must be cut off!" At the end, Li Taining's tone was extremely firm.

"Did you inform the government? Does Wangquan County have any countermeasures? "The small Baiyun Village in the face of the behemoth of the Black Wind Village is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, purely in terms of force value, the force value of any bandit who comes out of the Black Wind Village will not be lower than the current Shang Ji, thousands of third-order bandits plus a bandit leader of the in-stream generals is enough to sweep any player force at this stage.

"Don't mention any official government, these NPC forces really don't treat us players as human beings!" It's okay not to say it, but as soon as he said it, Li Taining had a stomach full of sour water that he wanted to pour.

Thinking that he Li Taining started from scratch in reality, worked hard for decades, and is now worth billions, even in the face of local feudal officials, he can talk and laugh, but he is embarrassed by NPCs everywhere in the game, and he is really aggrieved to death.

"Those NPCs don't care about the lives of our players at all, and the news is up, so they know about it and it's over. There is no reinforcement at all! Instead, those NPC villages are stationed in the army to protect them, and we players are all raised by mothers in the game! I've never seen a game like this, and sometimes I really want to stop playing it in a fit of anger! ”

may have been holding back for a long time, and Li Taining seemed a little verbose. But the last sentence is completely angry if you don't play, who can't see the current situation, the next development focus is "Beacon", isn't the current No. 1 player in Huaxia Yanhuang the official vest? The officials have all gone down in person, and whoever gives up at this time will really be a fool.

Having said that, "Beacon" is really very unfriendly to players, and the "dismount" when you first enter the game is forgotten, and in the game, players are subjected to the white eyes of NPC aborigines everywhere as inhumans. After the conflict between the player and the NPC, the NPC forces generally tend to favor the aborigines, and even the villages established by the players themselves such as Baiyun Village are also outliers in the eyes of the NPC government, and their reasonable requests are mostly ignored.

Li Taining is also an old fox who has worked hard in the mall for decades, and after a while, he collected his emotions and continued to introduce: "So, at present, we are counting on the NPC force is completely hopeless, and we have to live this hurdle ourselves!" ”

After a pause, probably because he felt that what he said was too serious for fear of scaring Shang Ji, Li Taining comforted: "But don't worry too much, little brother Shang, there is only a small team of twenty people in the headquarters of Black Wind Village who came to attack us this time, and the others are some of the subsidiary forces that have recently been incorporated by Black Wind Village." These subordinate forces are generally not strong, and they are basically a rabble, but there are relatively many of them. ”

"Oh? Specifically, how many of these rabbles are there? What is the strength? "Although Shang Ji really wants to go out and practice his muscles and bones, but if the enemy is too strong, then it is not a practice but a search for abuse.

"Well, this, there are about two hundred people in these subsidiary forces, about one-fifth of them are second-order bandits, and the others are basically first-order minions." After hesitating for a moment, Li Taining still told the truth, and looked at Shang Ji carefully, for fear that he would refuse timidly.

Li Taining's worries are justified, and the armed forces of Baiyun Village are mainly divided into two parts. The first part, and the strongest part, is the battle player. At present, there are less than a hundred battle players in Baiyun Village, and most of them are only about second-order. The second part is the village guard team composed of NPCs, with only 100 people, and their strength is all of the first order. It's not that Li Taining doesn't want to organize more escorts, but due to the limited population, he can only temporarily organize so much.

There are thousands of aborigines in Baiyun Village, but there are not many people who can really be mobilized and trained into an army, and it is currently a stage of rapid development of power, as long as players who do not plan to take the road of fighting to support war, they will not occupy too much population to train an army. As for the players who really fought with war, they are now reborn.

It is still five years before the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion. The Eastern Han Dynasty as a whole was still in a relatively stable situation.

The only alien races that can really provide players to fight on a large scale are the alien races outside the Saiwai, and the Xianbei Xiongnu are the Eastern Han Dynasty Imperial Court to deal with headaches, and the players are even more egg-hitting!

The escort team of 100 people plus more than 100 players, and most of the players are second-order strength, it seems that Baiyun Village's strength is superior, but unfortunately the actual situation is very different.

Players are accustomed to being unruly and unruly and not listening to commands, and combat players usually fight alone, once there is a battle of more than 100 people, it is extremely easy to cause chaos, what does not obey orders, and it is common to escape from battle, and it takes courage to face death with 100% realism.

In addition, the penalty for the death of players in the game is also quite severe, each player can only die ten times, and more than ten times can only choose to re-establish the account, everything from scratch. And 10% of the highest attribute will be deducted for each death! In the middle and late stages, one death means that the hard work of several months is in vain! Therefore, the players in the game are quite desperate, which also leads to the complete abolition of the player's most effective tactic in the traditional game - the crowd tactic.

The player's army has never won against an NPC army of the same strength. Lord-type players have basically established the fact that wars depend on the armies of NPC natives!

Recognition is recognition, but there is no way to solve it. At present, except for Yan Huang, the player force has advanced to the town level, and the other players have just reached the large village level like Li Taining at the earliest. There are no barracks in the village - in fact, there are no barracks at the town level, and the barracks have to be at least at the level of a small town, and there are several floors in between. Without a barracks, the army cannot be trained in batches, and even if it is barely trained, it is only a first-order militia, and its combat effectiveness is worse than that of bandits.

All current lord-type players are faced with such an embarrassing situation - they know that the combat players are unreliable, but they still have to rely on the combat players.

"Two hundred minions, twenty third-order bandits?" Shang Ji muttered to himself.

"Actually, we still have some of the strength that we haven't counted." Li Taining saw Shang Ji muttering to himself, thinking that he was afraid, and hurriedly added: "I have already sent a mercenary summoning order on the Internet, and it is estimated that at least a hundred more battle players can be summoned, so that we will not have a chance to fight."

"Mercenary summons? What is this? Shang Ji asked curiously.

"Actually, we posted on the Internet, and we paid a fee to gather the battle players who had the conditions to come over to defend Baiyun Village, just like mercenaries."

Li Minghui helped his father explain.

"Mercenaries? How effective are these people? "The mercenary merchant knows, and he didn't expect that there were already mercenary players in the game.

"It's hard to say, some mercenaries are well-disciplined and have strong combat effectiveness, and some are not even as good as a rabble, and the corresponding prices for mercenaries of different strengths are also different, in general, you get what you pay for."

"By the way, I don't know what price I can give?" Talking about the price of mercenaries, Shang Ji suddenly remembered that he hadn't talked about the remuneration yet.

Seeing that Shang Ji asked about the remuneration, he was obviously moved, and Li Taining explained sharply: "Brother Shang is his own person, I won't lie to you, the current top mercenaries need about five silver coins at a time, I will give Brother Shang one gold, kill a first-order minion reward 1,000 copper, second-order bandit 5,000 copper, third-order bandit two gold." The captured booty belongs to you, and if you unfortunately die in battle, the pension will be twice the cost of employment. ”

"It's done!" Shang Ji said decisively.

If you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are! Shang Ji is crazy to train at the same time as the money is also spent, although the housing in Baiyun Village is free, but the food is not free, ultra-high-intensity training also represents a lot of consumption! The hundreds of copper coins that he had gained from killing the bandits' minions before had already been spent, or did the merchant sell three captured weapons later to have the money to continue training, otherwise he would have to go hungry!

At present, a copper coin on the black market has been copied to the price of two yuan, although Shang Ji inherited the property of the predecessor is still a little wealthy, but it is really unaffordable.

A penny is hard for a hero, and if you want to continue training without distractions, you have to solve the financial problem, and this is a good opportunity right now. And after training these days, Shang Ji also wants to try his current combat level.
