Yang Rui's estimation was not wrong. Although they had penetrated deep into the enemy's territory, the Nihon region was still 13? 13?? There were no powerful NPCs or rich clans in the region, and the player groups did not show any signs of organizing.
As a result, the Lijian Clan's army was routed, and Yang Rui's Yellow Turban Army chased after them.
While chasing, Yang Rui had already sent out all the flying units. On one hand, they were tracking the traces of the Lijian Clan's army. On the other hand, Yang Rui had the flying units pay attention to the movements of the surrounding Nihon forces, so that he could grasp as much information as possible.
The Lijian Clan's army fled in a hurry. By the time Yang Rui arrived at Tengshan City, the Lijian Clan's army had already fled hundreds of kilometers away. In addition, Yang Rui had stayed in Tengshan City for more than an hour, so the Lijian Clan's army had fled quite a distance.
Fortunately, the other party was also in a panic and did not know where to go. At the same time, the Lijian Clan's army still had the mentality of observing the movements of Yang Rui's troops, so they did not rush with all their might.
Even so, when Yang Rui left Tengshan City to chase after them, the Lijian Clan's information network was once again displayed. Before Yang Rui's flying units could find their shadows, the Lijian Clan's army had already fled madly again.
This chase lasted for a day and a night. The Lijian Clan's army went from Tengshan City to four or five cities or towns to resupply and rest. Once they discovered that Yang Rui's troops were approaching, they would immediately flee. Moreover, they would take away or destroy most of the resources in their territory, not giving Yang Rui's troops a chance to resupply.
Every time Yang Rui followed them, he would see a pile of mess left behind by the Lijian Clan's army. They were all in a state where they had neither money nor goods.
However, such a situation wasn't without its benefits. With Yang Rui's troops having sufficient supplies, they were able to save a large portion of the process of sieging cities. Wherever they went, they only needed to expend a small amount of energy and manpower to take down various cities.
As for the cities and towns that Yang Rui had passed through, they were all chosen to be destroyed. Thus, along the way, Yang Rui had destroyed quite a number of territories of various levels. Basically, he didn't leave much for the Rijian Clan.
In this way, Yang Rui stayed in each territory for more than an hour. At the same time, he took the opportunity to let his troops rest and recuperate. After that, he pursued again.
If this cycle continued, it would be difficult for Yang Rui to catch up with the Lijian clan to join the army. Yang Rui also noticed this, but if he could destroy the Lijian clan's foundation, even if he couldn't catch up with them, it would greatly weaken their strength.
Moreover, after a day and night of pursuit, the Lijian Clan was about to reach the east coast of Fangzong Peninsula. If they wanted to continue escaping, the Lijian Clan would probably have to turn north.
At that time, Fang Lan's navy would also be able to cooperate, and the chances of eliminating the Lijian Clan's army would be greater.
However, just as the Lijian Clan's army was about to reach the east coast of Fangzong Peninsula, they suddenly turned north. They didn't reach the east coast of Fangzong Peninsula as Yang Rui expected, but they were already not far from the coast.
Although it was a peninsula, the distance between Fangzong Peninsula and east was actually equivalent to the distance between two cities in the real world. In the game, it would take less than a day to travel at full speed. The Lijian Clan's army was now not far from the east coast.
Yang Rui took down the last city before the Lijian Clan's army turned around. He planned to set off again after an hour to pursue the Lijian Clan.
At this time, the Lijian Clan's army was not far from the coast. Yang Rui had a fleet to meet them, so he didn't have to worry about being surrounded by the Nihon forces.
However, at this time, the flying units that Yang Rui sent out discovered a large group of players. There were about 100,000 people, and they were less than an hour away from Yang Rui's location.
It was obvious that the Nihon players had started to organize actions against Yang Rui.
At this time, the Nihon region had a system announcement that completely exceeded everyone's expectations. It was repeated three times before it stopped.
"System Announcement (Nihon): Due to the war between the Nihon region and the three civilizations, this region has lost 10 or more cities. The Kyoto Shogunate has issued a decree, ordering all forces in the country to work together to deal with the national crisis!
From today onwards, all forces can organize their own military forces to attack the three civilizations in the region. All forces can also enter Kyoto to report on their duties, and the Shogunate will deploy their forces to deal with the enemy!
This has triggered the third large-scale system storyline in the Nihon region — [Daimyo Shang Luo]. The system's time has advanced to around the first year of Yonglu, and all forces will remain the same.
The third system storyline in the Nihon region will unfold in segments. After the storyline is activated, the combat power of the civilization's characters in the Nihon region will increase by 10%, and the Civilization Guardian will be activated. "
As soon as such a system announcement was made, it caused an uproar in the Nihon civilization area. No one had expected that the third large-scale system storyline in this area would come so suddenly. Moreover, it was at a critical juncture in the middle of a national war!
At this time, all the famous forces had not even formed their embryonic forms, and some of the powerful forces had not even appeared yet. No one knew where they were!
As a result, the situation of the famous forces in the Nihon region was bound to change greatly compared to history. It had almost become an unchangeable fact. Although the system's time had advanced, the various forces remained the same and did not change.
According to the current situation, the Hōjō family, the Mogami family, and the Date family had basically been erased. They would definitely not be able to appear on the stage of history.
As for the Riken family and many other powerful families, they were in a half-crippled state. Compared to their performance in history, there was definitely a big gap.
The system announcement was made to the characters in the Nihon region. Yang Rui did not know about it immediately, but the relevant system prompt was quickly transmitted to Yang Rui, the initiator of all this.
"System Prompt: Respected player Blazing Sun, because of the actions of you and the other three countries' forces, the third large-scale system storyline in the Nihon region has been triggered — [Daimyo Shang Luo]. The coordinates of you and the other three countries' forces will be announced to the entire civilization region every hour. Please pay attention."
"System Prompt: Respected player Blazing Sun, the Nihon region's [Daimyo Shang Luo] storyline has been triggered. Because you are in the Nihon region and are directly responsible for triggering the storyline, you are eligible and must participate in the storyline.
When the sub-storyline occurs, you and the other three countries' forces will remain in the opposing camp until a certain Nihon region allows you to join.
If there is no opposing camp at the time of the sub-storyline, you and the other three countries' forces will participate as the opposing camp until the three countries' forces withdraw from the Nihon region.
After you are allowed to participate in the storyline, you and the other three countries' forces will be regarded as enemies by the opposing camp at any time. You will exist as a third party opposing the opposing camp, and you will not have the right to go to Shang Luo … "
Before he finished reading the long system prompt, Yang Rui's face was already ugly. This was obviously a big trap!
