"System Notice: Respected player Blazing Sun, some of the attributes of Sky City have been affected by the Nine Dragons Whip. Please check the relevant characteristics …"
First, there was a system notification regarding the attributes of Sky City. The appearance of the Nine Dragons Whip during the Three Kingdoms era had restricted the attributes of Sky City. This situation had happened before in the Xuzhou War storyline.
At that time, Yuan Shu had activated the Imperial Jade Seal and restricted Sky City's flight, entry, and exit functions. This time, Yang Rui felt that the situation should be similar.
"System Notice: Respected player Blazing Sun, please choose a faction to participate in the storyline series. Currently, you can choose between the Li Jue Faction, the Guo Si Faction, or the Neutral Faction. Please make your choice within two hours."
Before Yang Rui had the time to check the specific situation of Sky City, another system message was sent to him, prompting him to choose the storyline faction. However, there was still an hour time limit, so he wasn't in a hurry.
The two system notifications were received after Yang Rui had registered for the plot and completed the teleportation. It was only then that Yang Rui realized that the only people who had been teleported by the plot were the 40,000 Iron Guards that he had chosen when he had registered.
Of course, the 80-plus warships and water soldiers under Taishi Ci's command were also included. However, Yang Rui's current location was a little far from the surface of the Yellow River, so Taishi Ci's troops had been teleported to the surface of the Yellow River.
With Yang Rui's special attention and investment, the construction of the turreted warships, warships, and Bi 'an ships could be said to be very fast. At this time, the number of ships under Taishi Ci's command in the north had already exceeded 100.
This time, Yang Rui had only mobilized about half of the large warships. Among the warships, there were 20 turreted warships, 20 warships, and 25 Bi 'an ships. In addition, there were also some small and medium-sized transport ships and warships. Yang Rui did not bring out the two large transport ships in his hands.
In addition to these two forces, the remaining 300,000 to 400,000 soldiers that Yang Rui had placed in the Sky Castle were originally meant to be used by Yang Rui as a last resort, but after some tests, they had already confirmed that they could not be placed out due to the attributes of the Sky Castle.
Sky City also shrunk to the size of a fist and lay quietly in his backpack.
In other words, this time, Yang Rui could only use them. Fortunately, Yang Rui remembered to choose Zhang Ning, Han Dai, and Ding Yao as generals. Otherwise, Yang Rui would have to lead the troops himself.
Even so, Yang Rui's ability to participate in the storyline would be greatly affected. Most importantly, Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, and the others were originally Dong Zhuo's Xiliang troops. They had a large number of cavalrymen and their overall strength was not bad.
With just the 40,000 Iron Guards that Yang Rui had brought with him, they would not be able to hold their own in a direct confrontation. As such, Yang Rui had no choice but to rely on the naval forces commanded by Taishi Ci this time.
At the same time, the rapid development of the game's plot also made Yang Rui feel a little emotional. Back when the heroes were asking for Yang Rui's help, Yang Rui had also brought along forty thousand Iron Guards with him. At that time, a Tier 5 special force was already a very powerful force.
However, the situation now was different. The various forces had improved their military units significantly. Yang Rui himself now had more than one type of Sixth Grade or even higher military units. The Fifth Grade Iron Guards were no longer as outstanding as before.
This also gave Yang Rui quite a bit of warning. In the future, in terms of top-notch combat power, he could no longer just focus on historical generals or famous historical figures. It was also very necessary to have enough high-level powerful troops.
At any rate, due to the appearance of the Nine Dragons Whip of the Three Kingdoms and Yang Rui's habit of hiding the number of troops he had registered, the number of troops that Yang Rui had at his disposal was limited. He had to think more about faction selection and how to deal with the storyline.
At the same time, without the Castle in the Sky, it would not be as convenient to mobilize troops or supply supplies. This was a problem that Yang Rui had to consider.
When he registered to participate in the storyline, the system also required him to register food, equipment, and other resources. Back then, Yang Rui had only symbolically registered that 40,000 troops could consume half a month's worth of food and a corresponding number of carriages and other transportation tools. Now, this had become the foundation for Yang Rui to establish himself in the storyline.
An hour later, Yang Rui spent a lot of effort to lead the 40,000 Iron Guards to escort the food and meet up with Taishi Ci's troops above the Yellow River.
Along the way, Yang Rui also received confirmation from a few C's that Yang Rui's current location was within Yong Province's Xinfeng County. It was not far downstream from the confluence of the Jing and Wei Rivers.
For some reason, Yang Rui did not see any other players or groups of players near the location of the storyline teleportation. Usually, the setting of the storyline teleportation points was more concentrated. This time, however, it was different.
In the process of finding and meeting up with Taishi Ci's troops, Yang Rui had already made a general plan for his choice of faction and his next move.
At this moment, Taishi Ci had already used the special soldier attribute buff book (Scaled Water Soldier) that Cai Yan had copied. All fifty thousand Fifth Grade Scaled Water Soldiers were now with Taishi Ci.
The 80 ships had a carrying capacity of more than 100,000 people. Among them, the fortress ship had a carrying capacity of 3,000 people, the warship had a carrying capacity of 1,200 people, and the Bi 'an had a carrying capacity of 600 people. Just these three types of ships could carry 99000 soldiers.
Apart from that, Taishi Ci also brought along 20 ships of various colors, enough to carry all the food and resources.
Therefore, Yang Rui decided to let all the troops participate in the storyline through the warships. Whether it was transporting or avoiding danger, they could use the ships to receive them. The food and other resources could also be transported through the ships. This way, it would be much more convenient.
At the same time, when setting up camp, they would mainly rely on the surface of the water and the warships. If it wasn't for the fact that the 40,000 Iron Guards were not good at swimming and might not be able to move around on the water for long periods of time, Yang Rui could even let them set up camp on the ships.
The plan was set. After the two armies met up, Yang Rui ordered all the food and resources to be transported onto the ships. All the troops also temporarily set up camp near the ships. At the same time, Yang Rui sent out warships to scout the area upstream and downstream.
At this moment, Yang Rui did not have any cavalry with him. Therefore, the task of scouting fell to the small ships.
