Hulao Pass was the gateway to the Sili Province. Regardless of whether it was Yang Rui or Cao Cao, it was a strategic location that both sides needed to control. As such, there was bound to be a huge battle around Hulao Pass.
A total of 6,000 Golden Hawks and Flame Falcons were one of Yang Rui's trump cards. Yang Rui had also been preparing other methods, especially siege weapons.
Currently, Yang Rui's most powerful siege weapons were the 100 heavy trebuchets he had obtained after the Interdimensional Space Championship.
Ever since he obtained these 100 heavy trebuchets, Yang Rui had used them to take down many cities and support points. Thus far, Yang Rui had been very satisfied with their performance.
At the same time, Yang Rui also paid great attention to unearthing the various weapons from the School of Mohism's legacy. Over a month before the end of the Six Prefectures War, Yang Rui had just returned to Linzi City when he found the Master Carpenter, Jiao Wen, and had him stop what he was doing and focus on crafting various weapons.
As the inheritor of the School of Mohism's legacy, Jiao Wen currently possessed important School of Mohism's weapons, including the Divine Armaments Sky-Piercing Crossbow, Divine Armaments Crossbow, Divine Armaments Foot Crossbow, Mechanical Dolls, and Mechanical Beast Dolls.
Among them, the Divine Armaments Sky-Piercing Crossbow and Divine Armaments Crossbow needed to be used in conjunction with Mechanical Dolls. Previously, a batch of these weapons had already been installed on three ships. The Divine Armaments Sky-Piercing Crossbow, in particular, had played a significant role in the Battle of Tong Pass.
In a situation where heavy trebuchets could not be used on warships due to the difference in civilizations, the Divine Armaments Sky-Piercing Crossbow was the most suitable heavy weapon for warships and warships. In particular, its attack frequency was not something heavy trebuchets could match, and its attack power was also very impressive. For a long time, it would be Yang Rui's most important weapon in naval battles.
The Divine Armaments Crossbow's attack frequency was even higher, and its attack power far surpassed that of ordinary archers and crossbowmen. Its attack range was also 1.5 times that of ordinary archers and crossbowmen. It was an important means of attack and defense.
As for the Divine Armaments Foot Crossbow, it was the only weapon that could be used by ordinary soldiers. Although its attack frequency was not as high as the Divine Armaments Sky-Piercing Crossbow, it did not involve Mechanical Dolls, making it easier to move around and use.
Before the Imperial Army of the six provinces was finished, Yang Rui had not stopped making preparations for the attack on Chenliu County. Although he seemed busy, under the command of Yang Rui and the others, everything was done in an orderly fashion.
.......................................... Kao.................................................. to..........
Yang Rui quickly found out about these movements, including the approximate number of soldiers and the generals stationed there. Yang Rui also had a rough idea of it.
From an outsider's point of view, Cao Cao and Yang Rui near Chen Liu County could be said to be at daggers drawn. Once the Six Prefectures War ended, both sides would face an intense battle.
However, Yang Rui knew very well that this battle might have to wait until after the System adjustment.
"System Announcement: Ji Prefecture, Yan Prefecture, Xu Province, Yong Province, Liang Prefecture, and You Prefecture have ended …"
On the 30th day of the 10th month of the 2nd year of Xing Ping (195), Ji Prefecture, Yan Prefecture, Xu Province, Yong Province, Liang Prefecture, and You Prefecture have ended. The System adjustment followed.
"System Announcement: Based on the development of the plots in the various civilizations' regions, the System will activate an adjustment that will last for ten game days in two hours. Players must log off before the system adjustment begins to ensure that all data is complete and valid. Otherwise, you will have to bear the consequences."
Even though the content of the System Announcement required all players to log off, Yang Rui still ordered the six thousand Golden Hawks and Flame Falcons waiting on the Yellow River near Hulao Pass to launch an attack.
The attack was very sudden. Taishi Ci's navy had originally been sent to the Yellow River upstream of Hulao Pass. Since they had the absolute advantage on the surface of the water, Cao Cao's side had not noticed anything strange before this.
When the Golden Hawks and Flame Falcons carried the newest "aerial bombs" above Hulao Pass, and when the huge fish baskets and dung baskets turned into huge fireballs and crashed into Hulao Pass, the defenders of Cao Cao's side in the pass were stunned.
The huge fireballs continued to explode on the walls and inside the pass. There were not a lot of combustible items on the walls, but many of the granaries in the pass were engulfed by fire. Practically all of Hulao Pass was drowned in a sea of fire.
"Help …"
"Run …"
"Ah …"
"…"
Yang Rui was the one who personally led the team in this operation. When he looked at the chaotic Hulao Pass below him, Yang Rui's lips curled up slightly.
Of course, Yang Rui was not just happy because of the effect of the attack. In truth, Yang Rui also received a system notification at the same time, and it was something he truly cared about.
"System notification: Esteemed player Blazing Sun, since the faction under your command is at war with Cao Cao's faction, to prevent unnecessary losses, you can choose to stay online during the system adjustment."
Yang Rui had launched an attack on Hulao Pass at the last moment before the system adjustment because he wanted to get this system notification. Since he had the experience of being online alone during the system adjustment, he chose to attack again to create a similar opportunity.
When the system notification appeared, Yang Rui knew that his attempt had succeeded.
The battle between Yang Rui and Cao Cao was unavoidable. Since Yang Rui had made ample preparations, it was best for the battle to start as soon as possible.
The system adjustment would last for ten game days. If they followed the usual rules and Yang Rui logged off for ten game days before he came back, Cao Cao's faction might have made ample preparations to deal with it.
The system adjustment announcement did not mention that the factions in the game would remain the same, unlike the previous announcements. Cao Cao might use the system adjustment to do something else and cause Yang Rui to suffer losses.
"Gah! Gah! Gah! "
Yang Rui led his flying pets and finished a round of "bombs". On their way back, Golden Harriers and Fire Falcons continued to fly toward Hulao Pass. Some of them even started to take off from the ships one after another.
Although the load capacity of the new aerial bomb was greatly affected due to its weight and size, the navy ships that Yang Rui deployed on the Yellow River were very close to Hulao Pass. Since they were deployed separately, the frequency of their attacks was not greatly affected.
Yang Rui's sudden attack on Hulao Pass gave him the chance to not log off during the system adjustment. At the same time, the members of Yang Rui's faction — Ren Sisi, Xiaohui, Diaochan, and Chen Xiaonan — also received a similar system notification.
The four women also had a tacit understanding with each other. None of them logged off.
