The method of the system adjustment this time did not change. Before the adjustment arrived, the specific adjustment content was not announced. The forum only reminded players to make the relevant preparations.
The announcement of the adjustment expectations in the game's built-in forum was not out of Yang Rui's expectations. Before this, Yang Rui had already thought of a similar situation.
The main reason was that the situation of the three civilizations had changed quite a bit. It could be imagined that it had deviated from the direction set by the system. The previous system adjustment had actually made it clear that if it was not necessary, frequent system adjustments would not be made.
In reality, not only had the three civilizations deviated from the system's rules, but the Japanese civilization, the Egyptian civilization, and some surrounding civilization sub-regions had also affected the progress of the plot because of Yang Rui.
Even under the butterfly effect, other civilization regions were more or less affected. Yang Rui's role in this was undeniable.
An obvious example was that Yang Rui had upgraded the market level to Super early on, and later on, he had collected a large number of valuable items in the market. As a result, he had indirectly brought some benefits to the various regions.
At the same time, the supermarket was not unidirectional. Yang Rui could also sell items anonymously to various civilizations in the world through the supermarket. The largest number of them was food.
Under the background of the game, food was extremely scarce in various civilization regions. Yang Rui's actions in this regard undoubtedly played a greater role.
This was only a more prominent example. Although Yang Rui's influence in other aspects was smaller, it was undeniable that he had also contributed. Take the Alternate Realm Space Hegemony Tournament as an example. Yang Rui's appearance had gained six or seven more main cities for the three civilizations.
Because of Yang Rui's position in the leaderboard, the impact he could play was subtle, but it was undeniable that the impact in this area also existed.
Putting aside the situation of the upcoming system adjustment, Yang Rui continued to methodically dispatch generals, troops, and logistics supplies, further preparing for the expedition against Cao Cao.
This included the preparation of the "air force"!
During the Interdimensional Space Hegemony Tournament, Yang Rui had obtained about 6,000 Golden Harriers and Flame Falcons. Although the appearance of the Nine Dragon Whip had rendered flying items such as the Sky Castle and the Blade Flying Carpet useless, flying pets would not be affected by this restriction.
From the very beginning, Yang Rui had treated the 6,000 Golden Harriers and Flame Falcons as a trump card for special situations. He was counting on them to play an unexpected role.
This included the "aerial bomb" designed by the carpenter in the foreign dimension. Yang Rui originally planned to store a large number of them, but the wooden box used as the shell of the "aerial bomb" was somewhat limited.
The wooden box was very simple to make and was also very practical. However, it wasn't something made from blueprints and wasn't recognized by the system. In the beginning, it could only exist for 12 hours.
However, after the last system adjustment, although the rules did not explicitly state the relevant adjustments, the wooden box set by the carpenter could no longer be made!
This was also something that Yang Rui recently discovered when he asked the carpenters to make relevant preparations. Perhaps because the existence of the "aerial bomb" affected the so-called balance, the system directly banned this kind of thing, and all kinds of temporary items that were not blueprints were also affected.
However, this was not a problem for Yang Rui. The core of the "aerial bomb" was sulfur, kerosene, and charcoal as the fuse. These three items were all recognized by the system. At this time, the only thing missing was the shell.
The transparent wooden box was not the only thing suitable to be used as the shell of the "aerial bomb". After Yang Rui's instructions, the carpenters quickly found seven or eight similar substitute items.
These included bamboo baskets, high-top hedges, fish baskets, and even dung baskets. Although the structures of these items were also simple, they were made from blueprints approved by the system. They were not as unusable as the wooden box.
After practical testing, in the end, the fish baskets and dung baskets were two items that were more suitable to be used as the shell of the "aerial bomb". However, these two items were not small. Even the smallest of them was much bigger than the wooden box used in the beginning.
In the end, after Yang Rui's approval, the carpenters increased the amount of charcoal, sulfur, kerosene, and other fillers until the size of the outer container was suitable. Thus, two new types of "aerial bombs" were finalized.
Whether it was the fish baskets or dung baskets, the size and power of the "aerial bomb" were incomparable to the previous small wooden box. In comparison, they could be called "super aerial bombs".
Originally, when a wooden box was thrown down, it would more or less play the role of igniting and supporting the combustion. If the defenders had enough manpower, they might be able to take some countermeasures.
But now, when a larger version of the "aerial bomb" was thrown down, not only would it affect a wider area, but the instantaneous fire would also be more difficult to dodge. Even if it hit someone's head, they would most likely be injured or killed.
However, this structural change also brought about a problem, and that was that it was even more difficult to carry. Even the two large flying pets, the Golden Harrier and the Flame Falcon, could only carry one of these "super aerial bombs".
This meant that the attack frequency was destined to be low. After throwing down one bomb, they would have to return. This was somewhat similar to the situation of the torpedo planes in the early stages of World War II.
Of course, this was not a big problem. If more than 6,000 Golden Harriers and Flame Falcons were to attack together and take turns to bombard the target, it was not something that an ordinary target could withstand.
After the problem of the "aerial bombs" was solved, Yang Rui ordered the carpenters to start mass production and stock up as soon as possible.
In order to deal with Cao Cao, Yang Rui planned to use this special force.
Although Yang Rui had a considerable advantage over Cao Cao in terms of military strength, he could not guarantee that he would have the same advantage in terms of generals. This was especially so in some important areas. If he attacked head-on, it would be hard to say who would win.
For example, Hulao Pass. If Yang Rui wanted to control the entire Yan Province and maintain the stability of the situation, he had to control Hulao Pass. Otherwise, Chen Liu County and even more than half of Yan Province would be threatened by Cao Cao.
Hulao Pass was a long and impregnable pass. It was easy to defend and difficult to attack. It needed a special force like a flying pet.
