Since he had already chosen West Gate, Yang Rui naturally wouldn't regret the words of Liu County Lieutenant. However, what Liu County Lieutenant said should be true. Then, when County Deputy Li told Yang Rui to choose to defend the west gate, it was worth pondering over!
In about 15 minutes, Yang Rui brought a total of 355 soldiers to the west gate of Juping County.
"Hu ~ Ha ~ Keng Keng ~ Hu ~ Ha ~ Ha ~ Keng Keng …"
When Yang Rui arrived at the West Gate, the Yellow Turban Army's siege was in the middle of a fierce battle. The Yellow Turban Army's simple yet organized shouts were especially shocking when he was so close to them. The aura of the Yellow Turban Army was so strong that it felt like they could break into the city at any moment.
Yang Rui only felt relieved when he quickly climbed up the west gate tower. As far as the eye could see, the Yellow Turban Army was densely packed and their morale was high. Their attacks were ferocious but they were unable to break through the defense of the Jiping County soldiers.
Juping County was a mid-level city. The city walls and city gates were all mid-level defensive structures, including the two arrow towers inside each city gate. Naturally, its defensive capabilities were much higher than the checkpoint at the entrance of Ao Lai Valley in Mountain Town and the basic city walls of Wu Tun Town in Jiang Ji.
Right now, the most effective defense was the moat that was tens of meters wide outside the city! Due to the obstruction of the moat, the Yellow Turban Army could only attack within a hundred meters of the city gate. It was no wonder that County Magistrate Wang only asked them to defend the city gate.
Due to the moat being a trench on the outside and a narrow path on the inside, the width of the narrow path was within the range of an arrow. This structure determined that even if some of the Yellow Turban Army soldiers could spread out from the city gate and pose a threat to the city wall, they would not be able to form an effective attack because the width of the passageway was too narrow.
Therefore, if there were enough archers on the city walls, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the city walls were impregnable! Even if there were no archers, as long as there were enough melee Warriors, their defense would not be broken so easily!
The only flaw was … Juping County was a city in the north and had not experienced any wars for many years. Although there was a moat, there was no drawbridge! Otherwise, it would be much easier to defend!
"Who is Blazing Sun? The messenger asked us to report to you. Why didn't you say anything? "
Yang Rui was observing the situation outside the west gate. Thinking about how to defend and where to place the soldiers, the Han Ting camp players had already received the order from the messenger and rushed to the city gate.
Yang Rui turned his head and saw a female player looking at him with disdain. She must have guessed that he was Blazing Sun and deliberately put on an act.
The female player's attitude was still considered good. After Yang Rui went down the tower, before Yang Rui could say anything, another group of male players had already spoken.
"You're Blazing Sun? Is it okay? "
"That's right. Look at you, you only have two to three hundred soldiers. You're even worse than us. Why don't you give up your commanding position to [Sharp Sword] and let us take over … "
"Scorching Sun, although you're number one on the world leaderboard, you might not be good at war. Why don't you do as my second brother said and give up your commanding position to [Sharp Sword]?"
"…"
As more and more players gathered, there were many players like [Sharp Sword] who said the same thing. Some players even scolded him as soon as they arrived. The better ones were just waiting to watch the show. The better ones just kept quiet!
Yang Rui was not in the mood to talk anymore. He wanted to say a few words to persuade them. Nominally, he was supposed to lead the group of players. If he did things his own way, he would be putting on airs and would not be able to gather everyone's strengths! The most basic rules of engagement were laid out.
Yang Rui could only sigh in his heart. He did not know what was wrong with the people in society. They were very impatient, very irritable, and very easily angered …
Yang Rui still had some hope. Now, it was completely shattered! He decided to do everything according to his own wishes! There was a group of people that could only be dealt with by fooling them or being ruthless. However, with Yang Rui's personality, he could only choose to ignore them for now!
"Reporting to Patrol Inspector Blazing Sun, I'm Lin An, and I'm the captain of the fourth law enforcement team. The fourth law enforcement team will listen to Patrol Inspector Blazing Sun's orders!"
Right at this moment, a tall and skinny man with a fair complexion walked over with 20 soldiers. He saluted Yang Rui and said, "Pass on the orders of the county magistrate. Patrol Inspector Blazing Sun, please change the guard in half an hour! By then, the west gate will be completely guarded by the Inhumans. All other soldiers will be removed … "
The law enforcement team came at the right time. Yang Rui had already made the arrangements and was about to dispatch them. Now that the law enforcement team had arrived, the scene immediately became much quieter!
"Those with ranged soldiers, please come to my side." Tian Bao was the first to step forward and stood at the northeast corner of the empty space.
His bearded appearance immediately attracted the attention of many players. However, only forty to fifty players walked towards Tian Bao. It was unknown whether it was because there were too few ranged soldiers, or because some players were unwilling to listen to Yang Rui's orders.
There were at least five to six thousand players present, and this did not include the NPC soldiers under their command. If there were only forty to fifty players with ranged soldiers, then the ratio was very low.
"Those with melee soldiers of Third Grade and above, please come to my side."
"The rest of you, please come to my side."
Li Dong and Sun Bao stepped forward and walked to a corner of the empty space. Most of the players cooperated and went to their designated positions. The rest of the players remained where they were, purposely making things difficult for Yang Rui.
"Tian Bao, lead the team and send the ranged soldiers to the two arrow towers and the city gates according to their grade. Li Dong, lead the team and send all melee soldiers of Third Grade and above to the city gates, behind the gates, and inside the corridors. Sun Bao, lead the team and arrange the rest of the people evenly across the city walls."
After some arrangements, Yang Rui also made arrangements for the soldiers under his command. Twenty-four Second Grade archers were equally distributed by Yang Rui to two intermediate arrow towers. These two towers were the tallest and best suited for unleashing their power! The remaining one hundred and three archers were evenly distributed by Yang Rui to the gates.
For the melee side, Yang Rui arranged for one hundred and fifty Fourth Grade soldiers to focus on guarding the gates and corridors. The remaining thirty-six Fourth Grade soldiers were arranged by Yang Rui to patrol the city walls in groups of six. Meanwhile, the forty-two Fifth Grade bandit leaders were left under the command of Li Dong to be used as a firefighting team.
As for Tian Bao and the other two beginner generals, they were brought along by Yang Rui after they had arranged for their soldiers to defend the city. It was easier for him to dispatch them as he wished!
"Inspector Blazing Sun, how should we deal with these unruly players?"
Yang Rui had finished arranging everything and was about to head upstairs for the handover when he saw Captain Lin An of the enforcement team point at the players still causing a ruckus in the empty space.
"Er … let them be."
