When Yang Rui came to explore Yizhou, he brought Huang Wudie, Guo Jia, Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, the Imperial Guards, and Mogami Yohime to deal with all kinds of situations.
However, Yang Rui could only use Huang Wudie's 16000 Butterfly Swordsmen and Mogami Yohime's 1500 Reborn Samurai.
These two types of soldiers were brought along through the Space and were not restricted by the Void Shuttle's soul.
Apart from that, Yang Rui also brought along his own special troop class, the Scaled Water Soldier, to prepare for a possible naval battle.
Thus, even if Yang Rui wanted to clear out the Barbarian Tribes in the eastern part of Yizhou, he did not have enough soldiers.
However, it was still possible to do a small scale sneak attack. It just so happened that Huang Wudie and Mogami Yohime's special soldiers could be brought along through the Space and the Imperial Guards had the Ninja skill to hide their tracks.
In addition, Yang Rui had the Void Shuttle's soul. Whether it was moving or hiding, they could come and go without a trace. The Barbarian Tribes would not be able to find them.
After experimenting, Yang Rui and the others also found that Mogami Yohime could use the Barbarian's corpses to recruit special soldiers. Not to mention the butterflies that Huang Wudie needed. There were a large number of butterflies on Yizhou.
Based on the above two conditions, Huang Wudie and Mogami Yohime could increase their military strength in Yizhou.
Needless to say, Mogami Yohime could be pulled up from a pile of corpses. Huang Wudie's Butterfly Swordsmen had already been recruited. As long as she could catch enough butterflies, she could use the Soul Link to summon her troops from Green Province.
However, this method only lasted for one day before Yang Rui and Huang Wudie had to stop. The reason was that Liu Biao of Jing Province had finally made his move. He divided his troops into four groups and attacked Yuan Shu from all directions.
Before this, Yuan Shu had already been pressured by Cao Cao and Liu Bei. Although Ji Ling was defending Dong Ling Pass and Cao Cao could not advance, it was only holding on.
Especially after a period of time when Cao Cao saw no movement from Yang Rui's side, he sent more troops to Dong Ling Pass. This caused Ji Ling and the other defenders to be in imminent danger.
Liu Bei had also established a foothold in Lujiang County. The troops that Yuan Shu sent were not enough to shake Liu Bei's power. Instead, they gave him victory after victory. Yuan Shu's prestige in Lujiang County and its surrounding areas was gradually weakening.
On the other hand, Yuan Shu was most afraid of death. He placed Zhang Xun, Chen Ji, and Lei Bao, who were returned by Yang Rui, in Shouchun and its surrounding areas to prevent Liu Biao from crossing the river.
It couldn't be said that Yuan Shu's consideration was completely unreasonable. However, Yuan Shu was in a situation where he was outnumbered. He should have accurately judged the situation of the enemy, concentrated his limited forces, and used his troops in a clear order. Only then could he have a chance of winning the battle.
At this time, Yuan Shu's arrangements were indeed put to use. After Liu Biao's troops crossed the river, they went east and headed straight for Shouchun. If there were no restrictions, it would not take long for them to reach the vicinity of Shouchun.
Fortunately, Yang Rui was the first to receive the news and decided to return. This gave Yuan Shu a chance of survival.
Originally, Yang Rui had already been in Yizhou for a few days. It was not much longer than the time he originally planned to stay. After receiving the news that Yuan Shu was attacking from the east, Yang Rui knew that the plot before Yuan Shu became emperor had reached the most crucial moment.
As a result, Yang Rui did not hesitate and decided to return to his own territory. First, it was to clean up the mess and obtain the greatest benefits. Second, it was to set up the plot for the third large-scale system to balance or eliminate the various powers.
As for the situation on Yizhou Island, even if Yang Rui and the others stayed here, it would not be of much use to the overall development for the time being. At most, they would only be able to clean up the savage tribes in the east of Yizhou Island.
However, the development of the various villages in the central and western regions required manpower. This was something that even Yang Rui could not solve in a short period of time unless he could open up a route to Yizhou.
At that time, even if spatial items were banned in the entire region, Yang Rui could use the route to transfer a large number of NPC civilians to participate in the construction of Yizhou Island.
Of course, the Void Crossing Airship could carry 1,000 people at a time. However, such a small number was nothing compared to the size of Yizhou Island. Yang Rui also did not have the time to use this item to transfer people.
After the route was opened, the situation was completely different. Whether it was large transport ships or large ships, the number of people they could carry was not the same order of magnitude. They could quickly replenish the population of Yizhou.
Yang Rui's exploration of Yizhou Island was very smooth. Not only did he subdue 101 villages in a few days, but he also allowed the various villages to communicate and develop in advance.
At the same time, Yang Rui also understood the situation on Yizhou Island, especially the distribution of resources, the terrain, and the hostile forces. This laid a foundation for further development in the future.
It was worth mentioning that when Yang Rui was still exploring the savage tribes in the east, he discovered a native economic species, wild sugarcane.
"Wild Sugarcane: Native Crop of Yizhou Island, planted by cutting."
Yang Rui was able to obtain the wild sugarcane's attributes. In fact, before this, Yang Rui had inadvertently discovered the existence of wild sugarcane, which triggered a system notification. That was how he discovered the existence of this native economic crop of Yizhou Island.
This wild sugarcane seemed to be the original sin of the savage tribes who were willing to live on the east side of Yizhou Island and fight for territory. Yang Rui was able to discover the wild sugarcane because two groups of savages were fighting for the ownership of a small wild sugarcane forest.
The two groups of savages did not have more than 1,000 people in total. In the face of this situation, Yang Rui did not say anything. He directly pulled out Huang Wudie and Mogami Yohime, the two exclusive special forces, and wiped out the two groups of savages.
At the same time, Yang Rui also obtained enough wild sugarcane. After some processing, it would be enough wild sugarcane cuttings. With the wild sugarcane he harvested, Yang Rui could grow a larger sugarcane forest.
