Although most of the Yellow Turban Army players were not on guard, it was still very difficult to launch a surprise attack in broad daylight. Yang Rui had been waiting for the entire morning. He had been observing the situation on the battlefield from afar, but he did not find a suitable opportunity to make a move.
War was like that. Sometimes, there would be no breakthrough or progress for many days. There was no such thing as a victory for no reason. Most of the time, there would be a stalemate.
Therefore, Yang Rui was not in a hurry. Wutun Town in Jiangji was not in a critical situation. The headquarters in Mountain Town was also very stable. It could be said that Yang Rui's current situation was not worse than any other territory players or player organizations.
In the morning, Yang Rui also took some time to browse the game's internal forum. The hottest topic on the forum was that the headquarters of Xia Bang, one of the top ten guilds in the Three Kingdoms Civilization Zone, had been conquered by the Yellow Turban Army.
Xia Bang was a rising star in the recent ten years. Before "War of the Worlds", they had displayed extraordinary strength in all the major online games and competitive games.
Some people said that Xia Bang was founded by the princes of three of the world's top 500 companies in China. Very few people knew the truth. However, after Xia Bang entered the top ten in China, they had surpassed the two major gaming groups, Starlight and Rose. They had also pushed the CU Alliance out of the top ten in China. These results were real.
However, such a powerful gaming group had their headquarters in "War of the Worlds" taken by the Yellow Turban Army.
Xia Bang's headquarters was built in Pingyuan County in Jizhou. It was unknown whether it was because there were important characters in the Pingyuan County or not. According to the content on the forum, after the Yellow Turban Uprising plot broke out, the Xia Bang's ten territories in the Pingyuan County immediately chose to join the Han Ting Camp. They were quickly engulfed by the Yellow Turban Army in Jizhou and lost nearly ten territories in a row!
After losing their territories, Xia Bang's reaction was very fast. However, this reaction was despised by many people on the forum. This was because Xia Bang had decided to give up on the remaining territories and concentrate their forces to break through from the northeast direction. They went straight to Bohai County's Nanpi City.
Xia Bang's escape caused many of the small local forces to suffer. Their territories were all taken by the Yellow Turban Army and they suffered heavy losses. This should be the main group of people who ridiculed Xia Bang on the forum!
Xia Bang, on the other hand, used the term "strategic shift" to describe the breakout. He also claimed that he had informed all the friendly forces in the area before the breakout. He claimed that the current players were unable to face the Yellow Turban Army head-on and that Xia Bang's actions were to preserve his strength. He also claimed that when Xia Bang was strong enough, he would definitely fight back!
As a result, many players on the forum began to pick their words, saying that they had not received Xia Bang's notice of transfer at that time. Had they been listed as "unfriendly" by Xia Bang? Would the game have been shut down by the time Xia Bang was strong enough? And so on, his saliva was everywhere! Of course, there was no lack of nosy players stirring up trouble in the process!
From Yang Rui's point of view, there was nothing wrong with Xia Bang's decision. They might not have expected the Yellow Turban Army to be so fierce, so they were caught off guard. When they only had a few territories left, it was not a big deal for them to give up temporarily. In comparison, dying once or twice and losing levels was not a big deal. However, if their territories were occupied, the loss of resources would be much more serious. Therefore, it was not a bad idea to transfer ahead of time.
Xia Bang's situation was only a microcosm of the situation that most of the Han Ting players in the Three Kingdoms Area were facing. The current situation was that the Yellow Turban Army was rising like a hot knife through butter. However, the Han Ting players did not seem to have reacted and did not make any moves, resulting in this passive situation.
Until the afternoon, the Yellow Turban Army's attacks outside of Wutun Town did not stop. However, Yang Rui did not have a chance to make a move. He could only wander around the outskirts of Wutun Town and kill the scattered Yellow Turban Army soldiers that passed by. He treated this as farming monsters and leveling up.
Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected reward from this kill. Just as Yang Rui and the others exterminated a group of twenty Yellow Turban Army soldiers, a letter dropped from the Third Grade Yellow Turban Army leader.
"Yu Rui, Ding Liang, Super Chen … (a total of fifty-three people) Reading this letter is the same as reading this general. I wish to attack Juping County in two days (18th of February) at five o 'clock sharp. At that time, all of you must personally lead your troops to assist in the battle. Do not use any excuses to delay!
… …
The five player alliances of Wutun Town in Jiangji will head to Juping County to assist in the battle two days later (18th of February) at five o 'clock sharp! We will attack the town after the county is conquered!
… …
Written by Yang Lai of Juping County. "
It was another letter written by the leader of Juping County's Yellow Turban Army, Yang Lai!
After Yang Rui read it and compared it to the previous letter, he was able to confirm the time when the Yellow Turban Army would attack Juping County. That was two days later at five o 'clock sharp, which was also the 18th of February in Guanghe Seventh Year!
Moreover, this was good news. Before the 18th of February, the leader of Juping County's Yellow Turban Army, Yang Lai, had transferred all the Yellow Turban Army soldiers away from Wutun Town in Jiangji, including the people from the five player alliances. In other words, Wutun Town in Jiangji only needed to defend for two more days before the Yellow Turban Army's encirclement was broken.
Yang Rui was completely relieved. If it was only two days, defending Wutun Town in Jiangji shouldn't be too difficult.
Moreover, Yang Rui guessed that since the leader of Juping County's Yellow Turban Army, Yang Lai, was going to attack the county two days later, the Yellow Turban Army soldiers in Wutun Town in Jiangji would receive the transfer order. By then, Juping County's government would probably send people to Mountain Town to request for reinforcements.
Transfer order? Looking at the red words on the letter in his hand, he wasn't sure if Taiping Sect used cinnabar to write it. Anyway, Yang Lai's previous request for reinforcements was written in the same way. Yang Rui suddenly had an idea. Perhaps he should make good use of this letter.
He decided to give it a try. After Yang Rui killed a few more Yellow Turban Army soldiers in the surrounding area, he splashed some blood on the letter. Just as Yang Rui expected, the words on the letter were hard to read due to the blood stains.
After a while, as the blood continued to coagulate, the words on the letter were gone. Seeing this scene, the corners of Yang Rui's mouth curled up slightly.
After that, Yang Rui captured another Yellow Turban Army soldier who was passing by. Before another four to five Yellow Turban Army soldiers arrived, Yang Rui killed him and pushed him into the path of the other soldiers.
"Eh? There's a Yellow Turban Army soldier here! "
"Yes, let's go! Let's go and take a look! "
…
"Sigh! I think he's dead! Who did this … "
"Eh? There's a letter here. I think it fell from his chest … "
…
