At 6 p.m., Wang Xiaoyi was eating while browsing the forum for "Infinite Hunting Ground".
As the saying goes, good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels fast!
The story of the guild being wiped out twice in one day by a level-two city has been pushed to the top of the forum.
"Is that all the [Hidden Assassins] guild is good at? They can only bully solo players. They can't even beat NPCs!"
"Don't say that! When they were massacring the residents of Huai'an City, the Hidden Killer Dogs were killing more enthusiastically than anyone else!"
"Looking on the bright side, at least we now know that a level-two city has 10,000 garrison troops, which is a good thing!"
"Originally there were 10,000 defenders, but the Hidden Assassins have given us a generous gift, so now there are probably 20,000 defenders."
"You guys didn't see it, those assassins were chased so badly! I have the video here, you can watch it for 1 yuan."
"Upstairs, give me one!"
"+1!"
...
"+!"
Although Hidden Killer Guild is one of the top ten guilds in the China region, its ranking is not high, placing ninth among the top ten guilds, making it a bottom-ranked player.
In addition, the players of the Hidden Killer Guild have a bad reputation and often kill solo players without reason.
Lacking strength and with a bad reputation, the Hidden Assassins guild was wiped out twice, prompting many players to kick them while they were down.
"If I were to attack a level 2 city now, I'd better be cautious!"
"【Man and Gun as One】has been upgraded to level 2, making it more powerful, but that's all!"
"Even if I charged into the city, I would be heavily surrounded by the defenders, and it would be impossible for me to destroy the city's crystal so easily as I did today."
"If we are trapped between the inner and outer city by the defending troops, we will suffer heavy casualties!"
At this time, Wang Xiaoyi had fewer than 5,000 troops, which was not enough to withstand the second-level union.
After finishing his meal, Wang Xiaoyi logged back into the game.
After Wang Xiaoyi logged into the game, he saw Zhuge Liang and the others chatting happily with the three of them!
[Ding! We have recruited the civil official Wei Zheng!]
[Ding! General Qin Qiong has been recruited!]
[Ding! You have recruited the general Yuchi Gong!]
Three consecutive game hints delighted Wang Xiaoyi.
Wang Xiaoyi checked the three people's information panels and was pleasantly surprised to find that Wei Zheng was actually of the Seven-Color Supreme quality, while Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong were of the Red Epic quality.
Wang Xiaoyi quickly stepped forward and greeted the three of them warmly.
Before long, a group of civil and military officials escorted Wang Xiaoyi to the city lord's mansion to discuss how to capture the second-level city.
"Li Guang, distribute the maps containing information about the cities!"
"Your subordinate obeys!"
"Now that we know the city's defenses are 10,000 strong, what do you all think is the best way for us to breach its defenses?"
Wang Xiaoyi got straight to the point.
"In my opinion, we must first pacify the internal situation before we can repel external threats!" The speaker was Wei Zheng, who had just joined Le'an City.
"Our city is located on the edge of the map. There are no other players' cities within 10 kilometers, but there are many newly added level 1 NPC cities."
"I believe that with the current strength of Le'an City's forces, even if they manage to capture a level-two city, they will suffer heavy losses, making it a losing proposition!"
"Why not first clear out the surrounding level-one cities, accumulate troops, residents, and materials, and then make further plans once we are fully prepared!"
Wei Zheng showed no fear and spoke his mind frankly!
“Brother Xuancheng (Wei Zheng, courtesy name Xuancheng) is absolutely right!”
"There are a total of 12 first-level cities within a 10-kilometer radius of our city."
"Among them are two cities, Xing'an City and Ping'an City, which are adjacent to our Le'an City. We can attack them first!"
"After conquering the city, there is no need to destroy it, but to occupy it."
"In this way, these three cities will form a mutually supporting defensive position!"
"If the enemy attacks one of the cities, the other two cities can launch a surprise attack from the enemy's rear, effectively annihilating the enemy's manpower."
"As for the other 10 cities, there is no need to occupy them; they can simply be destroyed."
Zhuge Liang was more familiar with the distribution of cities, and immediately provided more detailed supplements to Wei Zheng's plan.
With Wei Zheng and Zhuge Liang leading the way, civil and military officials in the city lord's mansion offered their advice and strategies, creating a lively scene.
Through everyone's brainstorming, the siege plan became more and more perfect.
"Please get some rest that night, everyone!"
"Starting tomorrow morning, even if you all want to rest, I will absolutely not allow it!"
Wang Xiaoyi said half-jokingly.
"We are at your service, my lord!" everyone in the city lord's mansion answered in unison!
The following morning, Wang Xiaoyi led 2,000 spearmen out of the city, followed closely by Yuchi Gong and Qin Shubao, each leading 500 archers.
Xing'an City and Ping'an City fell one after another. The surrendered soldiers were incorporated into the local army, while the residents and resources were transferred to Le'an City.
Yuchi Gong was stationed in Xing'an City, and Qin Qiong was stationed in Ping'an City.
Overall troop strength +2000!
After a day of rest and recuperation, Le'an City regained over 5,000 prosperity points.
Fang Xuanling's SS talent [Popular Support Available] activated!
Talent Description: [The prosperity points required to recruit soldiers in the city where Fang Xuanling is located are reduced by 50%]
Originally, it took 100 prosperity points to recruit a soldier, but now Wang Xiaoyi only needs to spend 50 prosperity points to recruit a soldier.
In preparation for the upcoming battle, Wang Xiaoyi converted all 1,000 soldiers into cavalry.
After conquering Xing'an City and Ping'an City, Wang Xiaoyi returned to Le'an City for a short rest.
