Chapter 68: Profitable

In the first line of gorges, blood is everywhere.

The Blood Sword and its remnants were not spared. Under the attack of Zhao Yun and the barbarian soldiers, the last bit of morale of the whole army disappeared. More than 1,000 troops, five or six hundred casualties, and all the rest surrendered. Except for a few unlucky ghosts who were involved in the battle, all the more than 2,000 people surrendered.

This is also thanks to the Blood Sword who fled back to Yunyang Village in a hurry, and the regular troops are at the forefront. The terrain of the first-line gorge is narrow, and there are still many people who are blocked out of the first-line gorge, so they have escaped the fierce and vicious barbarians.

The lord of Wuniutong is not stupid, he knows that as long as Lu Yao is captured, all the remaining grain, grass and weapons will belong to Wuniudong. Compared with the useless Han captives, grain and grass weapons are much more valuable to Wuniudong. Taking such a big advantage, he was also embarrassed to slaughter the prisoners. As long as he surrendered, he ordered the barbarians not to hurt a single person.

It wasn't until more than an hour after the battle of the First Line Gorge ended that Lu Yao was late to lead the team. There were so many loot this time that his hands were so weak that he counted them. In his eyes, grain, grass and weapons are all floating clouds, and the captured people are the real treasures.

In this night attack, in order to be safe, the lord of Wuniutong did not spare a Han man in military uniform, and killed mercilessly, while those people were driven to stay in the open field. After dawn, Lu Yao counted and captured more than 1,700 people. This huge harvest made him very happy, and he hurriedly sent people back to the valley station to ask Li Daniu to lead troops to come and collect the prisoners.

More than 1,700 captives are almost catching up with the population of Xanadu Village when it was first promoted to a Level 3 village.

Finally, after reorganizing the prisoners, Li Daniu was arranged to escort them back to the valley, and he immediately led people to the first-line gorge. Just as planned. Zhao Yun led his team to block the first-line gorge and did not let go of a single enemy. After the three brothers of Zhou Long led 300 Liukou to set fire, they immediately evacuated according to the plan and ambushed at the mouth of the first-line gorge. Before the Blood Sword Army suddenly made a commotion, it was the three of them who led three hundred rogues to kill it, causing chaos in the Blood Sword Army and losing the morale of the army. In the end, the lord of Wuniutong led the army to cover up and kill, and won the game in one fell swoop.

"Lord, fortunately not dishonored." Zhao Yun rode forward on horseback, and his silver armor was stained red with blood, like a god of war.

"Zilong is hard." Lu Yao hugged his fist with relief.

Since Zhao Yun was summoned by him, he has been working hard and never complaining. How tragic the battle of the First Line Gorge was, he only smelled the smell of blood wafting from the canyon. It is completely conceivable how much pressure Zhao Yun was under at that time.

"Lord, I am fortunate not to be dishonored."

The three brothers of Zhou Long greeted him happily. Everyone's body was the same as Zhao Yun, stained red with blood. And they were in good spirits, and their faces were full of I'm happy, and they were happy.

This time, the total annihilation of 3,000 troops, countless prisoners, and a complete victory. They are proud to be a part of this great victory. This is their first battle to join Xanadu Village, and they win beautifully.

Lu Yao couldn't help but laugh. He was also thrilled. I used to worry every day, worried that I would be beaten to Xanadu Village. Now an out-and-out victory has completely opened his mind.

Then after counting, Lu Yao couldn't help but smile again. In the battle of the First Line Gorge, more than 500 regular soldiers were captured, and the remaining more than 2,800 civilians were all taken prisoner. The two battles combined were more than 5,000 captives, all of whom were strong men.

It's a great asset. Now that the tide of displaced people has arrived, Xanadu Village can recruit more than 300 and nearly 400 displaced people on average every day. In half a month, nearly 6,000 homeless people were recruited, counting the population of Xanadu Village itself, and the population of Xanadu Village reached nearly 9,000 before departure. More than half of them are old and weak, women and children, and only about 40% of the villagers are able-bodied.

And in this two battles, 5,000 strong people were captured. As long as these captives are escorted back to Xanadu Village, the population will immediately exceed 10,000, and it will reach more than 14,000. Among them, the elite population will reach more than 8,000, which is not far behind the villages in the Central Plains.

Another big gain is that after this battle, Zhao Yun's exploits skyrocketed, and the embarrassment of being only a little bit away from being promoted for a long time was suddenly gone. Promoted to the rank of lieutenant, he can command 500 troops. In addition, the three brothers of Zhou Long also took the opportunity to make a wave of meritorious deeds, and walked on the old path of Zhao Yun before, only a little bit away from the county lieutenant.

Ding Yan was more unlucky. In this battle, he was mainly responsible for staying in the valley and receiving prisoners, and his merits were not mixed much, and there was still more than half of the gap between him and the county lieutenant. However, his main job was only internal affairs, and his rank had little effect on him.

is different from Ding Yan, Lu Yao, as the coach of this battle, can almost match Zhao Yun's merits. He had barely crossed the centurion's line for his previous exploits, but now he had also been promoted to the rank of lieutenant, and could command five hundred archers. It's that he didn't really participate in the war, he didn't have much experience, and he didn't even get promoted to a level.

After counting the loot, Lu Yao couldn't help but smile slightly when he saw the red light of the black cow mountain lord coming over. This time, the owner of Wuniu Mountain also made a lot of money. A lot of grain and grass were burned in the night raid, but the remaining grain and grass can still be eaten by 10,000 people for half a month. Coupled with the captured weapons and armor, it is enough to make Wuniutong a large tribe in this area.

Lu Yao did not regret giving Wu Niu Dong such a big benefit. As a player, grain, grass and weapons can be purchased through the trading platform. As long as there are enough funds, these things will be as much as they want. But the population can't. If you only rely on the homeless people who refresh the system every day, they are far from being able to stop the attack of the Yellow Turban Army.

The most terrifying thing about the Yellow Turbans is the number of terrorists.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion in history swept half of the Eastern Han Dynasty and affected almost all prefectures and counties. The map and population in the game have expanded by a thousandfold, and the number of Yellow Turbans will be even more terrifying. At that time, I am afraid that even the desolate Zhuya Prefecture will be full of Yellow Turban Army.

Befriending Wu Niu Mountain, it may not be impossible to pull this group of strong allies in the future.

"Lord Lord, this time it's all up to you to take us to avenge the blood sea." The lord of the black cow mountain smiled from ear to ear, and greeted him with open hands from a distance, showing great enthusiasm.

"Lord Yu is too humble, without you, there would be no such victory. In the future, if you catch a captive, you can come to Xanadu Village to find me at any time and buy it at a high price. Lu Yao was modest, and threw out another bait.

In this great victory, many people still took advantage of the chaos to flee into the mountains and forests. There are a lot of people, and according to his estimates, there are at least more than 1,000 strong people. Buying captives from Wu Niu Dong at a high price will allow you to get this valuable group of people. Second, you can also take the opportunity to get closer to Wuniudong. Kill two birds with one stone, a good deal.

When the lord of Wuniu Mountain heard this, his eyes suddenly became bright. In this mountain forest, no one is more familiar than these barbarians. As long as you don't get eaten by wild beasts, you can basically get caught. He immediately made a small calculation, and planned to gather his clansmen to go out to search for those people as soon as he returned.

"Lord Dong, this matter is over, and I should go back too. When he comes to Xanadu Village, I will treat him well. Lu Yao clenched his fists, then turned over and got on his horse, preparing to take Zhao Yun and other generals to escort this group of captives back.

"Lord Lord......" Lord Wuniu suddenly stopped Lu Yao.

"Is there anything else going on?" Lu Yao said with a smile.

The lord of Wuniu Mountain dragged Fu Hu with an embarrassed face, and twisted and pinched: "Lord Lan Barbarian Mountain is my righteous brother. The Blue Barbarian Pass was destroyed, and most of the people were captured. The tiger baby is the only son of my eldest brother. He begged me to help him rescue the captive people, lord, you say, should I save them? ”

"It's time to save it, even if there's little hope." Lu Yao nodded.

The lord of Wuniu Mountain immediately slapped his thigh and gave a thumbs up: "Yes, yes, yes, I said that the lord will not stand idly by." ”

Lu Yao had a strange expression on his face and asked rhetorically, "Lord Yu invited me to rescue the captured clansmen for Fu Hu?" ”

As soon as the words fell, the lord of Wuniu nodded vigorously. He was happy with this revenge operation. If you don't meet Lu Yao, you don't know how many clansmen will die. died a lot, and the black cow became fat in the eyes of other mountains. Now not only did not a few people die, but they earned a lot of votes. No matter how you think about it, I feel that it is very cool to follow Lu Yao, which is equivalent to lying down and picking up money.

The Han people insist on getting it.

Fu Hu immediately looked at Lu Yao. This victory convinced him of the Inhuman Lord. It didn't take much effort, but it made a lot of money. He firmly believed that with Lu Yao taking the lead, he would definitely be able to rescue the clansmen.

"Ding, congratulations to the player for triggering the plot quest of the Jiuli tribe Lan Mantong's return."
