In comparison, Liu Biao had mobilized a lot of troops. He had stopped all the troops that were advancing to the east. He had transferred sixty to seventy thousand troops for a total of two hundred thousand troops.
When the Ethereal Ninja sent back the relevant information, it was out of Yang Rui's expectations. However, according to the information provided by the Ethereal Ninja, Liu Bei had used a few days to reach Yang Rui's camp. From this, Yang Rui was able to deduce some information.
Liu Biao's three troops had been steadily advancing. They had seized a lot of land and were able to gain control of it. It could be said that this was the troop that had gained the most out of the five.
Under such circumstances, Yang Rui initially thought that Liu Biao's troops would not be able to participate in the alliance. After all, if they were to go against Yang Rui, it would be a thankless task.
However, based on Liu Biao's current actions, he would still choose to participate in the alliance. Yang Rui felt that there was something fishy about whether Liu Bei played an important role in advancing the alliance.
Based on such calculations, just Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao and Liu Bei's five troops would have close to one million troops. Yang Rui's Northern Mechanized Division would only have this number of troops. They would lose their advantage in numbers against the alliance.
At the same time, the Ethereal Ninja of the Imperial Patrol were not spread out in Henei Prefecture. As such, it was difficult to grasp the situation of Chen Gong's troop movements.
There was no need to mention Han Sui who was far away in Liangzhou. Yang Rui found it even harder to grasp the situation. As such, Yang Rui had to prepare for the possibility that Han Sui's side would dispatch more troops.
Furthermore, Yang Rui's Northern Mechanized Army still had to take care of the defense in the direction of Hulao Pass. They needed to share a portion of their forces. Hence, Yang Rui decided to transfer a portion of their forces over to at least form a regional military advantage.
This was an extraordinary period, and in terms of military strength, it was clear that even three or four marquises added together would not be able to match Yang Rui. However, in terms of the number of generals, Yang Rui would find it very difficult to gain an advantage.
"System Announcement: The four hour time limit for the Marquises to participate in the Excellent Alliance Meeting is about to end. All parties concerned, please prepare your troops for the teleportation …"
At the last quarter of an hour, Yang Rui was preparing to mobilize his troops to the Yellow River storyline battlefield. However, at this time, a large number of figures appeared in and around Guandu City. A large number of figures appeared within Yang Rui's storyline territory.
Through Ethereal Ninja's report, Yang Rui was able to get hold of the relevant information almost immediately. He learned that the troops that were teleporting over were the troops of Dragon Soul and a large group of players.
Several leaders of large player organizations such as Dragon Soul had already obtained the rank of county magistrate. Although they could not participate in the storyline as marquises, they were different from ordinary players. As a force, they could already teleport their troops.
The large player organizations such as Dragon Soul had obviously chosen Yang Rui's faction in the Battle of Guandu storyline, which was why they appeared near Guandu City.
After receiving this news, Yang Rui immediately stopped teleporting his troops. He steered the Void Crossing Flying Ship toward Guandu City where Dragon Soul was located.
"Scorching Sun, we saw that you were restrained by many marquises and chose to join the King of the East Sea's faction without notifying you in advance. Do you welcome us, brother?"
The moment Yang Rui appeared in Guandu City, Dragon Soul seemed to have expected Yang Rui's return. He was already waiting in a small garden in the inner city of Guandu City with a group of leaders of large player organizations.
Dragon Soul knew very well that as long as they did not leave Guandu City, Yang Rui would be able to find their location at any time. Therefore, he did not send anyone to look for Yang Rui after he teleported. He only found the garden nearby and waited there.
"Of course, if it weren't for Brother Tracing, I would have been having a headache about where to mobilize my troops. Now that Brother Tracing has brought so many brothers to support me, Blazing Sun would like to thank Brother Tracing in advance."
Yang Rui did not waste time on pleasantries with Dragon Soul. Instead, he told him the truth.
"Hahahaha! Thank you, Brother Blazing Sun. We are family, after all. This time, we have brought five hundred thousand soldiers with us, all of whom are Fifth Grade and above. I hope Brother Blazing Sun can take care of us like you did in Japan.
We don't lack manpower, but none of the major player organizations have any capable leaders. That's something you'll have to worry about, Brother Scorching Sun … "
Dragon Soul's expression turned serious. He explained the situation of his troops to Yang Rui. Even though Yang Rui had learned about this through Ethereal Ninja, it wasn't all that accurate.
One could say that with the five hundred thousand soldiers provided by the various player organizations, Yang Rui shouldn't be at a disadvantage in terms of numbers in the Battle of Guandu. Even if Chen Gong and Han Sui brought all their forces with them, they might not be able to mobilize five hundred thousand soldiers.
At the very least, Chen Gong didn't have that many soldiers. Meanwhile, Han Sui, who was located in a remote area of Arid Province, couldn't afford to raise too many soldiers either. This was due to the limitations of their population and basic living resources.
Regardless, the arrival of Dragon Soul and the other large player organizations saved Yang Rui a lot of trouble. At the very least, he didn't have to make any adjustments to the deployment of his forces.
Yang Rui had urgently transferred a few generals over through the storyline teleportation. This wouldn't affect the structure of the three mobile armies.
If there was a need to deploy more manpower, Yang Rui had the Void Traveler's Soul. The entire process wouldn't take too long, and the chances of there being any delays were low.
At the same time, Dragon Soul also brought Yang Rui the latest news about Chen Gong's forces. According to the information he received, Chen Gong would send out all of his elites for this alliance meeting.
At the moment, Chen Gong didn't seem to have complete control over the situation in Hanoi Prefecture. He also couldn't coordinate with the ferocious generals left behind after Lu Bu's death. However, the generals in Hanoi knew that if they were the first to cause internal strife, it would be very difficult for them to gain a foothold.
Moreover, Lu Bu and the remaining generals of Bing Province had a common goal — — to avenge Lu Bu!
It was hard to imagine that a person like Lu Bu actually had a group of loyal subordinates. Even after his death, they still wanted to avenge him. Compared to Lu Bu's actions, it could be said that they did not let him down.
Not long after, Ethereal Ninja sent back news about the participation of the Excellent Alliance meeting from Jiujia City. It also confirmed what Dragon Soul said.
