Chapter 47: Misfortune is not a one-way street
Zhao Yun, Ding Yan and other major generals gathered in the lord's mansion.
Lu Yao simply said the information obtained by Zhao Yun from this outing, and made a conclusion based on the fact that the city defense index was outrageously low: "Obviously, the other party is not good, and the target is my Xanadu Village." ”
"Is the lord too worried?" Ding Yan hesitated for a moment and put forward a different opinion. After all, it is quite difficult for a territory more than 300 kilometers away to threaten Xanadu Village.
Xanadu Village has been promoted to a Level 3 Village. The city defense facilities are complete, and if you want to threaten Xanadu Village, you must not have less than a thousand troops. With this amount of troops, the logistical burden alone is not something that a mere player territory can afford at present.
"No, I think the threat is far underestimated." Lu Yao said categorically.
His worst fears had happened. At this stage, the only players who can afford to assemble a large army are those with national backgrounds. In the face of national power, the average player is as small as a small ant standing in front of an elephant. In the face of absolute power, there is no difference between a paradise village and a small sampan in the ocean.
Ding Yan pondered for a moment, and said thoughtfully according to Lu Yao's speculation: "In this case, we can't stick to it, and only by keeping the enemy outside the country can we keep the Xanadu Village safe." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Lu Yao hurriedly asked. He was completely helpless against the disaster. The individual is too insignificant in front of the state.
"My lord, we have two major advantages." Ding Yan patiently analyzed: "First, the enemy and us are more than 300 kilometers apart. If our side sends troops first, we can rely on the geographical advantages to block the enemy layer by layer. Exchange space for time, and at the same time consume a large amount of enemy troops. If you don't come, even when you arrive at Xanadu Village, you will only be a tired army. Even if the enemy is outnumbered, it can be destroyed in one battle. After a slight pause, he turned to Zhao Yun again: "What is the current strength of our side, please also ask General Zilong to explain." ”
"One hundred cavalry, one hundred and fifty archers, and one hundred and fifty sword soldiers, a total of four hundred." Zhao Yun was in charge of military affairs, and without thinking, he clarified the current strength.
"Second, our army has been trained for a long time, except for the newly recruited soldiers, the rest of them have been in battle for a long time, and they can all be upgraded. It can be described as a strong army. Ding Yan talked eloquently and reassured Lu Yao.
When Lu Yao heard this, his heart was cheerful. Indeed, in addition to the newly recruited troops, the first recruited soldiers have already eaten up their experience and can be promoted to the second rank. It's just that considering that the second-order class consumes too much food, and the first-order class is enough to clear up the hidden dangers around the territory, he temporarily gave up upgrading the class. Now it's different, the strong enemy is ahead, and it is impossible not to promote all those troops with full experience to second-order troops.
"Okay, what I think is exactly what I want." Lu Yao immediately made a decision and arranged: "In her spare time, Miss Cai stayed in the village and was responsible for recruiting recruits for training. Zilong, Li Daniu, the two of you will reorganize your troops and horses, and lead the army with me to meet the enemy in the near future. ”
"Order." Zhao Yun and other generals received orders one after another.
Everyone retreated and prepared for themselves. Lu Yao came to the barracks and upgraded all the experienced soldiers in the three major arms.
Longbowmen: Archers advanced class, range increased by 20%, critical hit increased by 10%, daily consumption of 10 units of grain and grass, need to have a full experience archer, funds 1 silver for recruitment.
Heavy Infantry: An advanced class of Pu Dao soldiers, with iron armor, 30% increase in defense, 20% increase in damage, daily consumption of 10 units of grain and grass, and one full experience of Pu Dao Soldier and 2 silver funds are required to recruit.
Axe Cavalry: Advanced cavalry class, armed with a long-handled axe and gun, wearing leather armor, increasing damage by 30%, defense by 20%, consuming 30 units of grain and grass per day, requiring a cavalry with full experience and 5 silver funds for recruitment.
After Lu Yao's operation, the funds originally accumulated in the territory almost dried up. Fortunately, two specialties have been certified and a stable source of income has been opened, otherwise just upgrading the second-order class would have to go bankrupt.
Thirty axemen came out of the barracks. Everyone's temperament has changed dramatically, and there is an extra strong atmosphere. The axe spear with a half-moon-shaped blade at the tip of the spear flickering with a cold light, which was ten times stronger than the broken spear of the cavalry before.
If there is anything that Lu Yao can't be satisfied with, there is only the upgrade of the second-order troops, and the funds spent on recruitment are only to upgrade the original weapons, and the system will not come with armor. These axe-cavalry were still only single and slightly weaker in defense.
The axemen were the first to walk out of the barracks, followed by the longbowmen. The bows in their hands had changed, and the thick and long bows were nearly the length of a man. Just looking at this bow, you can see that the range is much better than that of ordinary archers. Other than that, longbowmen don't change much from archers. is still dressed in single clothes, with a short knife at his waist, and his melee ability is extremely low.
Fifty heavy infantry also walked out of the barracks. Compared with the Pak Dao soldiers, the Pak Dao shield in the hands of the heavy infantry has become a combination of a short-handled broadsword and a wooden shield. The short-handled broadsword is eight feet long, nearly a palm-wide blade, and a one-foot-long hilt, which can be held with one or both hands. The blade is cold and shining, an absolute weapon of battlefield killing. Melee combat ability has been doubled.
Lu Yao is very sorry. The newly recruited soldiers haven't had time to brush up the Roguekou Camp, and they are still some way from the full level of experience. Otherwise, all the troops will be promoted to the second rank, and the next battle will be easier. However, the current funds in the territory are also insufficient, so he just thinks about it. The amount of money needed to upgrade the second-tier class is too large to be supported by the territory at the moment.
At this time, Zhao Yun hurriedly walked over, and when he saw Lu Yao, he immediately bowed his hand and said, "Lord, there is something wrong with the Liukou camp. ”
Lu Yao was taken aback. The Rogue Camp is one of his hole cards and one of the main sources of population. There is a problem with the Liukou camp, how to steadily increase the population of the territory in the future. He hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the Liukou camp?" ”
Zhao Yun said incredulously: "The last general just wanted to lead his troops to encircle and suppress the Liukou. I never thought that the camp was empty, and there was no trace of the rogue. The last general looked around, but there was still no trace of the rogue. ”
"Won't it?" Lu Yao opened his mouth, dumbfounded. According to Zhao Yun's description, he had already guessed the answer. It's not that there's a problem with the Rogue Battalion, it's that the Rogue Camp has spawned a Rogue leader today, and it definitely has the trait of ambush.
Before being reborn, Lu Yao had cultivated a military general with the characteristics of an ambush. This trait is known as one of the god-level traits. The effect is that you can lead your army to set up an ambush without being detected by the enemy. Absolute ambush, knocking on the stick, with the weak defeating the strong of the best characteristics.
Although the ambush is miraculous, it is not without weaknesses. Recognizing this trait is the natural enemy of the ambush. But the problem is that at present, Xanadu Village has four generals with characteristics: Zhao Yun, Ding Yan, Li Daniu, and Cai Yan, but no one has this characteristic.
Here's the trouble.
Good to die, at this juncture, a rogue leader with ambush characteristics has been spawned. If it can be subdued, it will definitely be a big help. It's a pity that I can't even find anyone now, and I can't do it if I want to recruit them. If left unchecked, it is estimated that in a few days, Xanadu Village will usher in the siege of the Liukou. The leader of the Rogue is born with the aura of absorbing the Rogue Bandit. To put it simply, the existence of the leader of the rogues will make the rogue camp lose the effect of containing the bandits.
The rogues will take care of it, but they won't stay in the camp of the rogues.
Lu Yao shook his head and smiled bitterly. Blessings are incomparable, and disasters are not singular. When he opened the territory panel, he was shocked when he saw the city defense index.
City defense index: 15/100
