In the past month, Yang Rui had earned no less than fifteen thousand merit points and credit points every day. Most of the time, it had even exceeded twenty thousand points. The total had exceeded five hundred thousand points, bringing Yang Rui's merit points to over 2.35 million and credit points to over 2.28 million!
Apart from that, all the items dropped by the Yellow Turbans had naturally gone into Yang Rui's pocket! This included skill books of various grades, equipment, money and other miscellaneous items. There were so many of them that it was hard to count them all! Among them, just money alone had given Yang Rui fifty thousand gold coins. It was enough for him to purchase food and supplies from all over the world!
Moreover, Yang Rui had also obtained a dozen basic neigong mantras and related skill books. They were the most valuable skill books among all the items! As the quest points list could no longer be used to exchange for basic neigong mantras (Normal), and there weren't many ways to obtain such skill books, every single one of them was extremely valuable!
These skill books were obtained by Yang Rui from exterminating beginner generals. It wasn't difficult for beginner generals to change their class, which meant that in the near future, Yang Rui would have a dozen more beginner generals under his command!
Over the past month, Yang Rui's Fourth Grade cavalry had been replenished to a total of one thousand two hundred. Every battle he fought was already a sight to behold, and this number was still increasing. Meanwhile, the number of Fourth Grade archers had been replenished to a total of one thousand six hundred, greatly increasing Yang Rui's ranged prowess!
The advancement of archers wasn't limited by objective conditions like the cavalry. They only needed to meet the requirements to advance to Third Grade archers. They only needed to advance to Fourth Grade archers through the rebel camp in Ma Zhuangqiang's camp! Therefore, the rate of replenishment was much faster!
In fact, this was the result of exterminating the Yellow Turbans in the past month. In the beginning, Yang Rui hadn't expected this at all! It could be said that Cheng Yu's powerful support skills played a key role in this, causing the Yellow Turbans to have nowhere to hide and greatly reducing their combat ability. This gave Yang Rui's troops the chance to shine!
Even so, with less than a hundred thousand soldiers (originally sixty thousand, but gradually replenished!), Yang Rui was able to exterminate the Yellow Turbans. In a month's time, he had swept through the Yellow Turbans in five counties and seventeen counties (major counties). This was an impressive result! Even the performance of the Yellow Turbans was comparable to the other NPC armies in Han Ting! This was definitely something that Yang Rui hadn't expected at the beginning!
While Yang Rui and Cheng Yu were sweeping the Yellow Turbans of Yan Province, several major events were happening in other places.
Among them, the most famous was Operation Chabang's Counterattack! The Yellow Turbans's territory. the Yellow Turbans's. However, they chose to set up their headquarters in the Plain Plains County, where the Yellow Turbans were rampant. When the Yellow Turbans' uprising plot erupted, they were chased out of their territory by the rampant Yellow Turbans. Their strength was greatly affected, and their ranking fell out of the top ten, replaced by the CUU Alliance!
Unexpectedly, four months after the Yellow Turbans' uprising plot erupted, the Yellow Turbans still had the advantage in the Jizhou region, and the Battle of Guang Zong had yet to erupt. The Yellow Turbans chose to act early and gathered fifty thousand players to attack the Plain Plains County!
The average strength of the current players was definitely not lower than a Third Grade soldier. The Yellow Turbans' preparation for this counterattack was also very ample. As they had spent a lot of money and resources to buy all sorts of equipment, the combat ability of their troops was much higher than the average! They easily took down the Plain Plains County!
However, the process was also very tragic, especially the process of Yellow Turbans attacking the city. As they lacked effective siege weapons, they were basically piled up with people!
This battle was the first large-scale counterattack led by the players. As such, there were many recordings of the entire battle on the forums, and naturally attracted the attention of many players! Some of the sharp-eyed players noticed that Yellow Turbans had suffered heavy casualties during the attack. However, some of the players were actually very powerful! After they were marked by some people, they were suspected to have the strength of a beginner general!
The Yellow Turbans' uprising plot had progressed to this stage. The term 'beginner general' was already widely known among the players. Some of the players already knew the strength of a 'beginner general'! Even if most of the players had not personally witnessed the true strength of a beginner general, it did not stop them from spreading the word of mouth about the beginner general.
Yang Rui had to admit that these players were very knowledgeable. After the "Chabang counterattack" incident, Yang Rui had inadvertently seen the relevant videos on the forum. In the videos, the players who were marked and suspected to have the strength of a beginner general were confirmed by Yang Rui one by one. They had indeed reached the level of a beginner general!
Thus, Yang Rui paid attention to them. After careful observation, Yang Rui discovered that there were a total of six or seven beginner general players in the recordings of the attack on the Plain Plains County! Moreover, looking at the number of times these players used their special skills, they should have just been promoted to beginner general not long ago. Their basic neigong level should not have exceeded Level 0!
Thus, Yang Rui thought of the Basic Neigong Skill Book that had disappeared from the Mission Points exchange list! Perhaps it had been redeemed by the people from Yellow Turbans!
Although the 'Yellow Turbans' incident caused a sensation for a while, it did not directly affect Yang Rui. Yellow Turbans had only taken down a county, while Yang Rui had unknowingly swept through several counties and counties in Yan Province. Therefore, he was not too surprised that so many players from Yellow Turbans had taken down a county!
Another matter was directly related to Yang Rui and Cheng Yu's progress in eliminating the Yellow Turbans in Yan Province! After Zuo Zhonglang and Huangfu Song ended the Battle of Yingchuan, they cleared out all the Yellow Turbans in the northeast region of Yu Province. In the end, they encountered a main force of Yellow Turbans that had come from Yan Province as reinforcements.
This main force of Yellow Turbans was led by the Yellow Turbans Commander Bu Ji. Most of the Yellow Turbans under his command came from the Yan Province region. There were more than four hundred thousand of them, and most of them were Second and Third Grade Yellow Turbans. Although they were much weaker than Bo Cai or Peng Tuo, they were still a force that could not be ignored!
After the Yellow Turbans Commander Bu Ji encountered Huangfu Song, he was immediately defeated and quickly retreated to the Yan Province region. However, the Yellow Turbans under his command did not suffer much damage. In the Chen Liu County region, there was still no one who could fight against him!
Huangfu Song was not willing to let Bu Ji and his Yellow Turbans go just like that. He pursued Bu Ji into the Yan Province region and defeated him again, driving him from Chen Liu County to the East County! At this moment, Yang Rui and Cheng Yu were pursuing the Yellow Turbans in the Chengwu region to the south of Jiyin County!
After receiving news that Yellow Turbans Commander Bu Ji had retreated to the East County, Yang Rui and Cheng Yu immediately turned north and hurried in the direction of Dong Ah County! Cheng Yu might not know, but Yang Rui knew very well. According to historical events, the final battle between Huangfu Song and Bu Ji was likely to take place at Cangting to the west of Dong Ah County!
The game's current plot progression might be slightly different from historical events, but the major events and directions had not deviated. Moreover, Bu Ji was currently fleeing in the direction of Dong Ah County!
One and a half days later, Yang Rui and Cheng Yu were the first to arrive at Dong Ah County. After County Magistrate Chen heard and confirmed that they were Cheng Yu and Yang Rui, he took the initiative to welcome Yang Rui and his subordinates into Dong Ah County.
"Congratulations to General Blazing Sun and Mr. Cheng on your triumphant return! The two of you came at the right time. I heard that Bu Ji's subordinates were retreating from the southwest direction. I was worried about how to deal with them, but I didn't expect General Blazing Sun and Mr. Cheng to arrive! The two of you are truly the great benefactors of my fortune! "
At this critical moment, Yang Rui and Cheng Yu had rushed back. County Magistrate Chen, who was worried, was naturally very happy! Yang Rui was fine. Although he was a General, he was still a Junior General. However, County Magistrate Chen was very clear about Cheng Yu's strength. Cheng Yu's return immediately solved Dong Ah County's urgent situation!
The Yellow Turban Canal's General Bu Ji's army numbered in the hundreds of thousands. Not to mention that there were only a few thousand soldiers in Dong Ah City, even if there were several times that number, it would still be difficult to defend Dong Ah City without any capable generals!
"Don't mention it, County Magistrate! I just don't know where Bu Ji is now. "
Yang Rui naturally knew the reason for County Magistrate Chen's attitude. After greeting each other, they did not say anything else. Cheng Yu asked a lot of information about Bu Ji, and County Magistrate Chen answered all of them truthfully. He did not dare to neglect any of them.
From County Magistrate Chen, Yellow Turban Canal General Bu Ji had led his 400,000 Yellow Turban Canal General Bu Ji to retreat into Dong Ah County for three to four days. However, due to the large number of soldiers, their movement speed was slower. Therefore, they had not entered Dong Ah County yet. Even so, it would only take one or two days for Bu Ji's army to reach Dong Ah County!
As expected, at noon on the second day after Yang Rui arrived in Dong Ah County, the Fourth Grade cavalry sent out to scout reported that the vanguard of Bu Ji's army had already reached Cangting! Bu Ji's army had crossed the river west of the Ji River to reach Cangting. In doing so, Huangfu Song's forces might have been left behind by Bu Ji on the other side of the river!
Dong Ah's scouts were constantly sent out to patrol and report the situation of Bu Ji's Yellow Turban army. By the time it was five in the afternoon, Bu Ji's army had all crossed the river and set up camp at Cangting. They were prepared to use the river to stop Huangfu Song's forces and buy time to recover from their defeat!
What Bu Ji did not know was that even if Huangfu Song's forces were forced to retreat, Dong Ah County would have already lost the land for the Yellow Turban army to develop! After Yang Rui and Cheng Yu's efforts, the scattered Yellow Turban forces in Dong Ah County had all vanished!
Bu Ji had deployed most of his Yellow Turban soldiers along the southeast bank of the Ji River in an attempt to stop Huangfu Song's advance. However, he had never considered the threat of Han Ting's forces in Dong Ah County! In Bu Ji's opinion, how many soldiers could a county possibly have? Even if the scattered Yellow Turban forces were not enough to break into the city, they were more than enough to keep the county occupied!
