“.....”
Yang Rui had killed Niu Fu by chance and obtained a lot of items. After looking through them, Yang Rui picked out a few of the most important items and put them aside. With these items, if the conditions were right, he might be able to cultivate a historical general!
Although the items dropped from killing Niu Fu were good, Yang Rui could not help but feel lucky. The rescue of Young Emperor Liu Bian and Empress He was really full of twists and turns. If Yang Rui did not have the thought of risking his life at the crucial moment, it would be hard to say what would have happened. He might have lost a lot of soldiers!
Although he had lost a lot of soldiers, Zhang Ning, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Chen Lin, and Wu Anguo had all returned in one piece. At the same time, they had also successfully rescued Liu Bian and Empress He from Luoyang Imperial City. Compared to that, the lost soldiers could be considered as a result of the battle. Those soldiers that died also had two chances to revive through points.
Of course, Wu Qiong and Zhou Qiong also played a key role in this. Luoyang was an imperial city. If they were to attack it head-on, even if Yang Rui had several times more soldiers, it would still be difficult for them to break into the city …
Due to the intense battle, Yang Rui had lost a lot of soldiers, but he had also gained a lot of points and achievement points. After a rough check, Yang Rui's total points and achievement points had both broken through the 8 million mark. After a big battle, he had gained much more than the Yellow Turban Rebellion plot!
The sudden increase in Contribution Points and Achievement Points once again widened the gap between Yang Rui and the other players, allowing Yang Rui to stand alone on the two leaderboards. This seemed very abrupt. However, it was inevitable.
First of all, the other Players could not compare to Yang Rui in terms of the number of soldiers. Even if a large player organization had a lot of manpower, due to the level restriction of the territory, they couldn't allocate their manpower to the same territory. Therefore, they couldn't compete with Yang Rui.
Secondly, the soldiers in Dong Zhuo's Rebellion storyline were one or two ranks higher than in the Yellow Turban Uprising storyline. The points and achievement points that could be provided were several times more than before, which resulted in a huge difference in the amount of achievement points and achievement points that could be obtained from the two plots.
In addition, Yang Rui had over 35000 soldiers under his command, all of whom were Fifth Grade special forces. With the help of all the famous historical figures, every soldier killed several enemies on average. Naturally, the accumulated points and merit points increased.
Even so, when compared to the number of soldiers Yang Rui had lost. The achievement points alone weren't even enough to revive half of the soldiers!
Yang Rui had lost more than 18000 Fifth Grade soldiers. Reviving them would require more than eighteen million points. Of these, nearly ten million points would have to be slowly made up for later in the storyline, especially when it came to precious special forces. Of course, Yang Rui would have to revive them with all his might. This would require Yang Rui to work harder and earn more achievement points in the upcoming storyline.
Of course, Yang Rui had obtained quite a lot from this trip to Luoyang as well. This included the money, equipment, skill books, and other items that the soldiers of Dong Zhuo's faction had dropped. Yang Rui's subordinates had only managed to pick up a small portion of these items, and Yang Rui hadn't had the time to tally them up yet. However, Yang Rui knew very well that almost every soldier had picked up a decent amount of these items.
As the storage rings couldn't be used at the moment, Yang Rui had the soldiers keep these items for themselves. Yang Rui led fourteen thousand soldiers and entered the vicinity of Yang County along with Wu Anguo. At the moment, Yang Rui's achievement points were running low. This was the perfect opportunity to earn some more achievement points.
Yang County City wasn't far from the banks of the Yellow River. It was connected to the Luoyang Royal City across the river. Yang Rui had wanted to take this city as a temporary base. However, when Yang Rui and his men arrived at Yang County City, they discovered that it was at least a medium-sized city. There were tens of thousands of soldiers defending the city. In addition, after the previous battle, Yang Rui's men were exhausted. As such, Yang Rui first took down an advanced town near Yang County as a temporary base.
After the soldiers were settled, Yang Rui rested for a while before he rode the Flying Carpet to catch up with the fleet. Along the way, Yang Rui was also thinking about how to deal with the Young Emperor Liu Bian and Empress Dowager He. Although he had successfully rescued the two of them and would be able to receive the quest rewards soon, it would be difficult to deal with them in the future.
Yang Rui originally wanted to hide Shao Di and Empress Dowager He in the territory of Dashan City or somewhere in Qingzhou. Perhaps he would need their reputation in the future. When he was strong enough and the time was ripe, he could even learn from Cao Cao's example of "holding the Emperor to order his vassals".
However, Yang Rui's night raid on Luoyang's Royal City had caused quite a commotion. Even after leaving Luoyang, many players from Dong Zhuo's Faction had followed Yang Rui. Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao believed that news of Yang Rui's raid on Luoyang's Royal City would quickly reach the ears of Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao.
Because of this, the Young Emperor and Empress Dowager He might become a hot potato! The exact whereabouts of the two of them might even change the course of the game. Yang Rui had no choice but to think carefully. Otherwise, he might become the target of everyone and turn a good thing into a bad thing!
Forcefully keeping the two of them in his hands did not seem ideal. However, if he directly handed Liu Bian and his mother to Yuan Shao and the other heroes, it was hard to say how the situation would change. If Yuan Shao held the Emperor and ordered the nobles to follow him, his influence might immediately expand and greatly change the course of the game …
"This time, it's all thanks to General Blazing Sun for saving our lives. If General Blazing Sun has any requests, I will do my best to fulfill them."
Yang Rui rode the Flying Carpet and quickly caught up with the fleet. When Empress Dowager He saw Yang Rui, she took the initiative to mention the quest rewards to Yang Rui. What surprised Yang Rui was that Empress Dowager He actually referred to herself as "I"!
"Here are 5,000,000 gold coins. General Blazing Sun, please take it first. I will also fulfill two of your requests."
Just as Yang Rui was slightly stunned, Empress Dowager He took out a small storage pouch and handed it to Yang Rui. Currently, storage equipment could not be used to store items other than the backpack. However, it could be used to check items. Yang Rui took the small storage pouch and checked it. There were 5,000,000 gold coins in it, not a single copper coin less! Including the 1,000,000 gold coins that Yang Rui received when he accepted the quest, Empress Dowager He had already taken out 6,000,000 gold coins!
"Thank you, Empress Dowager!"
Yang Rui cupped his hands and said. Empress Dowager He's generous actions also confirmed Yang Rui's thoughts. Back then, Emperor Han Ling did his best to amass wealth. In the end, he must have left behind a lot. The majority of it was likely that Empress Dowager He was in charge of it.
Before, because of the series of actions like recruiting soldiers in Qing Province, Yang Rui's expenses were not small. Now that he had a large amount of gold coins in his account, Yang Rui's net worth immediately increased. He was already moving towards the level of 10,000,000 gold coins.
"General does not need to be so polite. This time, Blazing Sun saved me, so I must properly thank you. Now that General Lie Yang is already the Vice Alliance Leader, why don't I order my son to confer Lie Yang the title of Great General, to help me and my son control the military power of the world, and use this to offset the remaining two conditions? "
At this time, Empress Dowager He had escaped from her prison. Her manner of speaking was completely different from when she had asked Yang Rui for help in the palace. Although she did not order Yang Rui around, this meritorious subject, around her, she still had the attitude of someone in control!
"Blazing Sun was able to save the two of you is already very lucky. As for the position of great general, whether it is Blazing Sun himself or his subordinates, they do not have the strength to match. Empress Dowager, please make other plans!
Due to Lieyang's weak strength, I would like to request the Empress Dowager to bestow upon him some medicinal pills or skill books that can increase his personal strength. Or perhaps, skill books for other generals or special forces are also acceptable … "
In truth, when Yang Rui heard that Empress Dowager He wanted to confer him the title of great general, he was also rather moved. The position of great general was the most powerful position in the Han court, but he also needed to have the corresponding strength!
Most importantly, it was already very difficult for the Han court to centralize its power. After becoming a great general, it was very likely that he would not be able to mobilize other people's subordinates. In terms of increasing one's strength, it might not even be as useful as the position of provincial magistrate. Thus, Yang Rui was only moved for a moment before refusing. Instead, he raised a few other requests.
"Hahaha, General Blazing Sun must be joking. Right now, there is not a single person among the vassals who can match General's strength. I have already heard of this when I was in the palace. General, why don't you reconsider and help me and my son control the country. In the future, General Blazing Sun's benefits are obvious. We will guarantee you a position that is second only to one person and above all others. You will enjoy endless power, money, and beauties. You will be conferred the title of king and minister, and you will inherit the title of nobility. What does General think?!"
Empress Dowager He seemed to have set her sights on Yang Rui. After being rejected by Yang Rui the first time, she unwillingly tried to persuade him again. As she spoke, Empress Dowager He gradually walked toward Yang Rui. By the end, Empress Dowager He's entire body was practically stuck in front of Yang Rui. She even reached out a hand to tidy up Yang Rui's armor …
The space of the transport ship that Liu Bian and his mother were on was not very big. Right now, Liu Bian was already asleep. Empress Dowager He's expression was very fervent. However, how could the various tempting conditions that she had for Yang Rui not be something that she herself had in mind?!
"Blazing Sun, forgive me for not being able to comply!"
