Ouyang Shuo had just walked out of the tailor shop when a system announcement sounded in his ears.

"World Proclamation: On the first day of the first month of the first year of Gaia, countless aliens descended from the sky, overcame thorns and thorns, and with the sword in their hands, they expanded the territory and established the foundation. For the rest of the month, the beasts of the wilderness were slaughtered, and there were countless counts. As the saying goes, the cycle of heaven is unpleasant. It is also said that the weak eat the strong, and the winner is king. Therefore, three days later, on the first day of February in the first year of Gaia, the beasts of the wild, under the leadership of the leaders of the clans, will quickly assemble and attack the player's territory at the same time. Swear to wash away the grievances of your fellow clans with the blood of your lord. Please prepare for war in advance, and defend the dignity of your lords with the sword in your hand! ”

"World Announcement: This monster siege is a mandatory global territory defense mission, and the territory of the village that is attacked by the beast will be directly removed. Territories that successfully defend themselves against the attack of the beast will receive additional rewards. During the mission, there are three major rankings: regional leaderboard, national leaderboard and world leaderboard. The top 10 of each list will receive generous rewards, and those who enter two or more lists will be rewarded with the latter one. Those selected for the latter list will not occupy the quota of the previous list. Non-territory residents cannot stay within the territory during the mission. ”

"World Announcement: The top 10 rewards for the regional leaderboard are as follows: 1st place will be rewarded with 100 merit points. For each 1 place behind, the merit value decreases by 10 points. ”

"World Announcement: The top 10 prizes in the national ranking are as follows: 1st place will be rewarded with 1,000 merit points and 100 gold coins. For every 1 place behind, the merit value will be reduced by 100 points, and the gold coins will be reduced by 10. ”

"World Announcement: The top 10 rewards in the world ranking are as follows: 3,000 merit points and 600 gold coins for the first place. For each place behind, the merit value will be reduced by 200 points, and 50 gold coins will be reduced. In addition, the first place will be rewarded with a random hidden building; The second place will be rewarded with a random special item; 3rd place will be rewarded with a random primary talisman. ”

As soon as the system announcement came out, the world was in an uproar. Those who are weak are afraid that their territory will be destroyed, and they are panicked. The powerful, or careerists who think they are powerful, are completely seduced by the rewards of the system, and become enthusiastic and excited. They are all gearing up to compete with the global lords.

Even Ouyang Shuo, who knew the news in advance, couldn't help but be a little excited when he saw such a rich reward. His goal is to secure a place in the top 10 of the world rankings and aim for a top three. To achieve this goal, you need a secret weapon.

In the afternoon, Ouyang Shuo walked into the barracks. In the barracks, in addition to patrolling and carrying out garrison duties, the rest of the soldiers are practicing archery in the school field. Seeing him come in, everyone stopped training and lined up to greet him.

Ouyang Shuo motioned for the soldiers to continue training and pulled Shi Wansui aside, "The general has worked hard this time!" ”

Shi Wansui smiled, "The last general likes this kind of military life." ”

"That's good. What level are these soldiers at now? Ouyang Shuo asked directly.

Shi Wansui said proudly: "After this period of training, all the soldiers have been promoted to the second rank. In addition to Lin Yi, the four fire captains had already been promoted to the third order. ”

"Very good, the general trained the troops, and it really lived up to expectations. How's the trap in the territory? ”

"Because the territory is very large, the last general plans to arrange four trap defense chains in the territory. After the efforts of the past few days, the arrangement of the two defensive chains has been completed. At this pace, in two more days, it will be all set. "Shi Wansui is not ambiguous, and he is also ambitious. There are four defense chains, and there are at least a thousand traps to be dug.

Ouyang Shuo nodded, and asked instead, "Has the general heard of fierce fire oil?" ”

"Fierce Oil?! But what the lord is talking about is the kind of black magic liquid that can be ignited directly? ”

"Yes, the general is really well-informed."

Shi Wansui smiled embarrassedly, "The lord asked about the fierce fire oil, but what is the deep meaning?" ”

"Yes, if you can buy a large amount of fierce fire oil, it will help the general's defense plan?"

Shi Wansui was stunned for a moment, and then rejoiced, "That's so helpful." The beasts are no more afraid of fire than we are. If you have fierce fire oil, you can arrange a fierce fire array in front of the village. The last general has faith that he can destroy it in one fell swoop. ”

"Okay, with the general's words, I don't have to worry about it. The general will now take his soldiers with me to the primary market to buy fierce fire oil. Ouyang Shuo said happily.

Shi Wansui immediately ordered twenty soldiers, and together with Ouyang Shuo, went straight to the primary market.

Ouyang Shuo walked into the wooden hut, clicked on the material trading platform, and searched for fierce fire oil. Fierce Fire Oil is sold in barrels, each barrel of Fierce Fire Oil has 50 liters, and the price is 1 silver coin.

On the way here just now, Shi Wansui roughly estimated that to complete the arrangement of the fierce fire array, 40,000 liters of fierce fire oil would be needed, that is, 800 barrels. In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Ouyang Shuo gritted his teeth and spent 10 gold coins to directly buy 1,000 barrels of fierce fire oil.

In addition, in order to enhance the territory's early warning ability, Ouyang Shuo once again spent the last 10 gold coins to buy a sentry tower building blueprint. The watchtower is made entirely of stone masonry and is difficult to break. At the same time, the watchtower is equipped with a beacon tower, which can send out early warning information. Each tower can accommodate two sentries.

[Stone Watchtower]: A primary military facility with strong defense and reconnaissance and early warning capabilities. Construction conditions: 20 units of wood, 200 units of stone. Construction time: one day.

On the square in front of the wooden hut, Shi Wansui grinned and instructed the soldiers to transport the fierce fire oil to the barracks. This thing is a dangerous item, and no one can worry about it if it is placed elsewhere.

Ouyang Shuo handed over the architectural drawings of the watchtower he had just purchased to Shi Wansui and asked him to transfer them to Zhao Dewang of the Construction Division. As for the site selection of the sentry tower and the follow-up garrison tasks, Shi Wansui is naturally in charge. According to his plan, it would be better to build more than three watchtowers to ensure smooth warning.

Coming out of the market, Ouyang Shuo finally became relaxed. In the face of the impending monster siege, everything he can do has been done. The entire territory is laid out like a meat grinder.

The key to victory or defeat in a war is nothing more than the right time, place and people. Needless to say, he relied on the advantage of rebirth, and from the day he was promoted to a second-level village, he was preparing for this war. The other lords only had three days to prepare.

The geographical advantage also has an advantage, relying on the four trap defense chains, supplemented by the early warning of the sentry tower, coupled with the lore of the fierce fire array, the geographical advantage is used to the extreme.

In the end, there is the people, and the advantages in this regard are even greater. With the primary talisman, the territorial army got rid of the militia era early and entered the regular army sequence ahead of schedule. Coupled with Commander Shi Wansui, one of the top ten fierce generals in history, it is simply invincible.

Finally, there is strong logistical support. Plenty of arrows and a large number of javelins are enough to ensure the consumption of this war.

Back at the Lord's Mansion, Ouyang Shuo read a book in the office for an hour before going offline.

In reality, it's winter. The leaves in the garden of the community began to slowly turn yellow, falling one by one on the path. Ouyang Shuo ran on the gravel road, enjoying the fresh morning air, and his body and mind were refreshed.

When they returned home with breakfast, Sun Xiaoyue and Bing'er had already gotten up. The two beauties, big and small, saw the breakfast in Ouyang Shuo's hand, looked at each other and smiled, and sat down at the table with a tacit understanding.

Some people say that habit is a terrible thing. Before Ouyang Shuo and Bing'er moved in, Sun Xiaoyue's breakfast was not a meal.

In just one month, she has become accustomed to waking up in the morning with hot soy milk and fried dough sticks. I am used to having a sumptuous dinner waiting for me when I come back from school in the afternoon. is even used to accompanying Bing'er to do homework at night and telling her fairy tales. Unconsciously, both diet and lifestyle have changed a lot.

Sun Xiaoyue didn't notice it, maybe this is the fate between people. This wonderful fate made it natural for her to bring the Ouyang Shuo brothers and sisters into her life. In a trance, they have known each other for a long time. Now, they are like a family, living under the same roof, natural and harmonious.

As usual, after sending Bing'er to school, Ouyang Shuo returned home and turned on his light brain. Today's forum is particularly lively. Needless to say, the root of it all was the announcement made by the system last night.

The headline of the pinned post is a questionnaire. The theme of the survey is to guess who will be in the top 10 in China this time. In addition, it is speculated that this time the lord of the Chinese region will be able to occupy several places on the world rankings.

There is no doubt that the Handan Six are still the biggest favorites. What everyone is interested in is who else can occupy a place in the top 10 in China besides the Handan Six.

Among a series of candidates, Ouyang Shuo was on the list by virtue of his previous sixth place to be promoted to a second-level village. In addition to him, there are also the heroes of Overlord Village, the Drifting Illusion of Fallen Leaf Village, the Stubborn Stone Village, and the White Birch of Lingxi Village.

These four people, except for Bai Hua, are all lords of the top ten promoted second-level villages in China. Bai Hua was able to be included in the list of candidates by virtue of her ID. As a mysterious player who has long occupied the first place in China's competitive game hall of fame, I can't take it too seriously.

The most heated discussion is the prediction that a few people in China can reach the top 10 of the world rankings. There is no doubt that as the most influential player in China, Di Chen, the head of the six hegemons of Handan, is the most popular candidate. As for the rest, it's not for sure. After all, the world is too big, and there is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon everywhere.

Most people still boldly predict that based on such a huge population base in China, at least two people will be able to break into the world rankings.

Ouyang Shuo looked at the speculations of these players and did not say a word. As far as he knows, in his previous life, only Emperor Chen in China ranked third in the world rankings.

The others are not on the list. The other nine places are occupied by the United States, Canada, Russia, South Korea, Japan, the United Kingdom, Germany, France and India. No country can occupy two places, and the competition is fierce.

This time, with Ouyang Shuo's biggest variable, I don't know what kind of pattern it will be in the end.
