"Oh? It's Wang Qi, Wang Tingyu? What a coincidence. May I know why Wang Yenting has come to Mountain Town? "
Yang Rui didn't want to bother with people like Wang Qi, but he thought that this person must be here to ask for help. Furthermore, his attitude changed 180 degrees from last time. He must be here with a mission or some benefits!
"To tell you the truth, Scorching Sun Pavilion Master, the Yellow Turbans near Juping County have been coming in and out these days. Their numbers have increased tremendously. Since this morning, the Yellow Turbans have been attacking Juping County even more fiercely! I am here on the orders of the County Magistrate Office, Deputy County Magistrate Office, and County Commandant Office to ask for Constable Blazing Sun's help. "
Wang Qi could see Yang Rui's attitude towards him, but he didn't care and his tone was still polite. He passed a scroll to Yang Rui. It should be the order from the three Prefectures that Wang Qi was talking about.
"I have already made it clear to Mr. Wang Qi last time. Our Mountain Town can't even take care of ourselves. Where would we find the strength to reinforce the county?!"
Yang Rui took the scroll but didn't open it. His words still showed that he was going to refuse. In fact, Yang Rui's meaning was very clear — — Even if he had the orders from the three Prefectures, he could still ignore it and not carry it out!
Wang Yuting didn't seem to have expected Yang Rui's attitude and was slightly stunned. He originally thought that since he came with the orders from the three Prefectures and he was very low-key, things would go smoothly. Unexpectedly, Yang Rui didn't buy it at all!
Wang Qi had been in the County Magistrate Office for many years and could be considered very experienced. However, this was the first time he encountered such a situation!
Yang Rui did this. It was only because this Wang Yu's court official had been too arrogant last time, which made Yang Rui feel uncomfortable! On the other hand, he needed to raise the price! Just as Yang Rui had said, every soldier in Mountain Town was his private army. Since they were going to reinforce the county, they had to follow him. At least give me a quest!
"Constable Blazing Sun! Before I came here, Magistrate Liu County Lieutenant asked me to bring this for Patrol Inspector Blazing Sun. It was then that I found out that Blazing Sun was actually a Patrol Inspector of the County Commandant's Manor … "
Wang Bei was only surprised for a moment, but he quickly recovered and handed a brocade box to Yang Rui with a smile. The design and size of this brocade box were very similar to the one that Liu County Lieutenant had given to Yang Rui last time. It should be a mission of the same level!
"… Right now, the situation of the county is very dangerous and we are lacking in defensive forces. I have been informed by the few lords that if Patroller Blazing Sun is able to lead the other Hanting Camp's mutants to defend one of the four gates, you will be able to obtain the mission scroll in this brocade box …"
"Other Hanting Camp's mutants?"
Yang Rui asked in surprise. He did not expect the leaders of the county headquarters to make such an arrangement. "How can I coordinate with other mutants?"
The 'mutants' that Wang Bei was talking about were players. It was a general term that NPCs in the game called players.
"With the military strength of Mountain Town, it is second to none among the mutants. In addition, Blazing Sun is a Patrol Inspector. Currently, there are very few mutants that can stand shoulder to shoulder with Blazing Sun. It is also because of this that the various lords in the county headquarters feel that Patrol Inspector Blazing Sun is able to take on this heavy responsibility. Furthermore, Liu County Lieutenant has instructed you not to reject …"
The NPCs also knew about the 'military strength index'. Furthermore, the two reasons seemed to make sense. Yang Rui did not know how to reject the offer!
Even so, Yang Rui did not want to accept the offer. What kind of concept was the 'Han Ting Camp's mutants'? It should be those independent players, factions, and village chiefs who had lost control of their territories. It was definitely a group that was very difficult to bring together. There would definitely be a lot of people with seven guts and eight hearts!
Therefore, coordinating and leading a group of players was not something that an ordinary person could take on. Yang Rui's first reaction was to reject the offer.
"Most of the mutants in Juping County are not familiar with each other. If they are not from the same group, I'm afraid it will be difficult to coordinate. Why don't … "
Yang Rui was about to reject the offer again when Wang Bei said, "Patroller Blazing Sun, you don't have to reject the offer anymore. The few sirs have already discussed and will grant Patroller Blazing Sun the right to make decisions on the spot during the battle. They will also send a 20-man enforcement team. If anyone disobeys the order, as long as the evidence is conclusive, and the order itself is correct, fair, and did not intentionally harm the interests of others, they will be able to enforce the law on the spot!
With this, Patroller Blazing Sun should be able to rest assured! As a reward for commanding the mutants, Patroller Blazing Sun will also be rewarded with additional Achievement Points and Contribution Points. The specific value will be 10% of all the Achievement Points earned by the Han Ting Camp's mutants in the county … "
The right to make decisions on the spot during the battle? The enforcement team? Enforcing the law on the spot? Such authority was definitely not low! Even Yang Rui was very surprised! Most importantly, there was also the reward of 10% of all the Achievement Points and Contribution Points. It was very tempting! However, Wang Bei's next words made Yang Rui understand that authority and responsibility were equal!
"… In order to ensure that the city defense mission is carried out smoothly, the sirs of the county headquarters hope that Patroller Blazing Sun will not bring less than 15,000 military strength with him! Otherwise, he will not be able to complete this mission without sufficient military strength! "
"I wonder how this military strength is calculated …" Yang Rui asked in confusion.
For Yang Rui to ask this question, it was clear that he did not have enough understanding of the game's data. In fact, there were already players on the game's inbuilt forums who had already deduced the calculation formula of a territory's military strength. The 'military strength' that Wang Bei mentioned was referring to this data.
"In terms of soldiers: First Grade soldiers have 4 points of military power, Second Grade soldiers have 8 points of military power, Third Grade soldiers have 16 points of military power, Fourth Grade soldiers have 32 points of military power, Fifth Grade soldiers have 64 points of military power, and so on. In terms of generals: Beginner generals have 1000 points of military power, Intermediate generals have 2000 points of military power, Advanced generals have 4000 points of military power, and each historical general has different military power. In terms of construction …"
Because this King's Court Commissioner had come with a mission, he explained very patiently, from the soldiers to the generals to the buildings and other aspects. He only stopped when Yang Rui shouted for him to stop.
Wang Bei's detailed explanation allowed Yang Rui to directly understand the specific calculation of military strength. When he compared it to his own military strength on the world rankings, Yang Rui realized that the military strength that the county headquarters wanted him to bring was close to half of the total military strength of Mountain Town!
The total military strength of Big Mountain Town was less than 37,000 points. Among them, there were a few Basic Generals that contributed 5,000 to 6,000 military strength. Excluding some defensive structures that contributed a small portion of military strength, the military strength of the soldiers did not exceed 30,000 points!
Therefore, the requirement of 15,000 military strength was a little too high! The main territories that Yang Rui needed to defend were Mountain Town and Jiangji's Wutun Town. The military strength that he needed was not a small number! This did not include the defenses of the other strongholds. Even the bandit camp in Gaoqiao Town was still under the control of the Yellow Turbans!
