Maps of major cities were available for sale in the library. Although they were expensive, none of the guild leaders had the time to waste on such a matter of life and death.
Not long after, the guild leaders arrived at the meeting hall of the Castellan's Mansion with a map in hand.
The last time they had gathered here, the Castellan had still been an NPC. This time, however, the Castellan had changed. Everyone could not help but sigh.
Of course, they were not here to reminisce about the past.
After the guild leaders had gathered, Wang Yu and Quanzhen's group arrived at the meeting hall from the backyard of the Castellan's Mansion.
Seeing the arrival of Quanzhen's group, the chaotic scene in the meeting hall immediately quieted down.
"Everyone, take a seat."
Seeing that all of Yu Huicheng's big shots had arrived, Wang Yu nodded in satisfaction.
Hearing this, the guild leaders hurriedly found a place to sit.
At this time, Wuji asked Blood-red War Flag, "Did you bring the map?"
"Yes!" Blood-red War Flag hurriedly took out a map from its bag and handed it to Wuji.
Yu Huicheng's geographical location was in the neutral zone between the Light Faction and the Dark Faction. This kind of border major city had one characteristic: it was easy to defend and difficult to attack. This was also the only advantage that Yu Huicheng had.
After examining the map for a while, Wuji inserted the map into the magic projector. At the same time, a huge map of Yu Huicheng was projected on the wall.
At this time, Wuji asked the guild leaders, "How many players can we mobilize now?"
"This …" After calculating for a while, the guild leaders replied, "Less than 200,000."
"Less than 200,000?" Wuji frowned when he heard this. He did not expect that, as a main city with more than 300,000 people, Yu Huicheng would only have less than two-thirds of its population, excluding the tens of thousands of guildless independent players.
In reality, this was within reason. After all, the bosses present were Guild Leaders of major Guilds with several thousand subordinates. Even the weakest among them had close to a thousand subordinates.
The bigger the guild in the game, the more expert players there would be. These people were big and powerful, so they naturally wouldn't just sit and wait for death. Those small guilds didn't even have a base, so there was absolutely no benefit in getting involved in this hopeless muddy water.
The players in the virtual world were the most realistic. They couldn't be expected to shed blood for something that didn't benefit them.
When the guild leaders came up with this number, their hearts turned cold.
Although 200,000 players did not sound like a small number, it was nothing compared to the total number of players in the Light Faction.
Even if they had 300,000 people at their peak, they wouldn't have the slightest confidence, let alone now that they had lost another 100,000 people.
"Well, I don't think we have any hope of winning this time."
"Yeah, the difference in strength is too great."
For a time, fear appeared on the faces of some of the guild bosses, and they even had the thought of retreating.
It wasn't that these people had never fought in a city war before, but it was always one city against one city. They had never encountered a situation where one city was the target of so many main cities.
They were just a group of gaming geeks. Their understanding of war was still stuck at the level of group fights. As for how to win a battle where they were outnumbered, they didn't have the slightest idea.
Almost everyone was thinking about how they were going to fight against so many people with 200,000 players. How were they going to fight against others … If they were only going to rely on their aura and resurrection points, they would just be using their lives to fill the gap. As such, it was normal for them to be afraid.
On the other hand, the people from Quanzhen were used to fighting against many people. They were calm and even a little excited. Seeing that these guild leaders were so useless, Mingdu couldn't help but mock them, "Hehe! You guys dare to mess with guilds with such little guts? "
"This …"
The guild leaders' faces turned red from Mingdu's mockery, but they couldn't refute anything. Compared to the people from Quanzhen, they were indeed timid. They could only say, "We're just speaking the truth."
Wang Yu smiled and said, "Since you guys feel that you're speaking the truth, can you let me say something too?"
"Please, please." Everyone was still a little afraid of Wang Yu.
Wang Yu said calmly, "I think we'll definitely win this time!"
"This …" Everyone was stunned. "What else?"
Everyone thought that Wang Yu would say something about Li Jufu, but who knew that she would just shout a slogan.
"Isn't that enough?" Seeing everyone's reaction, Wang Yu couldn't help but ask.
"Uh …" Everyone looked at each other and didn't know what to say.
"Alright, it seems like I'm not suitable to fool people." Wang Yu sighed and looked at Wuji. "You go!"
"…"
Wuji was speechless. He stood up and said, "That City Lord Niu is right. Although we're at a disadvantage, we also have an advantage. There's no reason for us to lose this time."
"Oh?" Blood Red War Flag and the others knew that Wuji was full of tricks. Hearing Wuji say this, they couldn't help but ask, "What advantage do we have now?"
Wuji said calmly, "Home advantage!"
"What do you mean?" Everyone was a little confused. Everyone knew what home advantage meant, but they didn't understand. Facing so many enemies, even if they had a home advantage, what could they do?
"Hehe!" Wuji took out his staff and pointed at the map. "Our Yu Huicheng is a main city at the border. It's easy to defend and hard to attack. We have a great geographical advantage. Can't you all see that?"
"So what? Aren't we defending the city now? What does fighting with a city have to do with geographical advantage?? "
Everyone had fought defending a city before. Under normal circumstances, they would rely on the city walls and weapons to fight against the invaders. The so-called geographical advantage was completely useless.
WuJi sighed and said, "Your battle strategy is too conservative. If we were in a situation where the difference in strength between us and the enemy isn't that big, then fighting with the city would naturally work. But in this situation, how many waves of firepower do you think our 200,000 players can withstand?"
"This …" Everyone was speechless.
Indeed, there was no such thing as water and food in the game. As long as the firepower of the players was on the same level, the defending side would not lose. But now, everyone's enemy was the entire Light Faction. With such a huge difference in firepower, Yu Huicheng's city walls were not good to rely on. On the other hand, the main city was easier to focus the enemy's firepower.
"Then what do we do?" Hearing Wuji say this, everyone was interested.
Wuji smiled and said, "It's very simple! Surround the enemy and attack the reinforcements! "
"Surround the enemy and attack the reinforcements? What does that mean? "Everyone was confused again.
Besieging a point to attack reinforcements was a very old battle strategy. For the players, it was still difficult to understand.
Wuji explained, "For example, if a piece of meat is placed somewhere, an ant will definitely not be able to move it. So, they will gather their comrades. Once these ants gather their strength, they will be able to move the meat. So, as long as we destroy the reinforcements before these ants gather their strength, they can only look at the meat!"
