Zhanshan is King of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 32 Updated NPCs

Li Feng's body was soaked in nutrient solution for a long time, but he didn't feel any discomfort. He admired the high technology of the game company. He went to the street to eat some real food to satisfy his appetite. At the same time, he found that there were so many people on the street that it was a bit outrageous. He didn't know until he turned on the TV after returning home that "Three Kingdoms" has more than 80 billion people playing on the moon, Mars and the earth, and it just happened to borrow today's maintenance All players have the opportunity to go offline to relax. In reality, humans are no longer needed to participate in the work, and it is all done by robots. That's why humans are so empty that they all enter the game world to enrich themselves.

After 24 hours in reality, after Li Feng went online again, Li Feng looked at the quaint furnishings around him, and felt that except for the furniture that was different from the real world, the rest seemed to be the same. The bandit infantry battalion walked over, and he wanted to check to see what new changes had been added to the bandit's standard units after this update?

However, to his disappointment, there was no change in the bandit infantry battalion at level 5!
So far, he can be sure that the system has really silently weakened the players of the anti-thief forces!
Because, from now on, the conditions for recruiting NPCs in the villages of the Eastern Han Dynasty will be lowered, and each player alliance will inevitably have a large regular army of NPCs. Take a new village as an example. After a week of development, a new village can support about 10 people The NPC army, this is just a village, and the alliance is generally a union of hundreds or thousands of villages. From this, we can see how many NPC troops there are in an alliance!

However, a newly built anti-thief cottage or bandit group needs to pay too much hardship, not only to face the encirclement and suppression of player villages, but also to face the staring eyes of NPC forces. Therefore, Li Feng can only sigh in his heart. In the beginning of the year...it's not easy to rebel!
While Li Feng was inspecting various buildings in the colonial village, Linzi County, the distant capital of Qingzhou, and Beihai County, which was just a short distance away, were plotting several major events.

"Dear colleagues, the emperor has sent an edict to all states and counties to increase their troops as soon as possible to cope with the increasingly rampant anti-thief forces. Therefore, the assassin has decided to recruit another 50 troops on the basis of Qingzhou's total strength of 20. Ladies and gentlemen What do you think?" Tian Kai, dressed in assassin costume, looked arrogantly at the NPCs below.

"Master Assassin is wise, recruiting troops is really the most sensible way to maintain the prestige of the imperial court!" An NPC official jumped out first to flatter Tian Kai.

All the NPCs in the counties of Qingzhou quickly flattered Tian Kai. Tian Kai squinted his eyes and listened to everyone's flattery, and felt very comfortable in his heart. After a while, when the NPCs were talking dry, Only then signaled them to stop, and then said: "Since you have approved the proposal of Qingzhou's military expansion, now the counties will be assigned to recruit troops by themselves."

"Beihai County is actually the largest county in the prefecture, with a total strength of more than 5 troops. The assassin thinks that they should be expanded by 5 people to 10 people. After a one-month integrated training, they sent them to encircle and suppress the so-called The Pingyuan cottage of the first rebel, I wonder if you have any opinions?" Tian Kai looked at the special envoy sent by Beihai prefect Kong Rong. (It’s Yi, whose name is Ziyu. In the history books, he eventually belonged to the state of Wu. He is not in the romance, but he made his fortune from Beihai, and he can be regarded as a third-rate civil servant.)

"The lord of a certain family has no objection, it's just military expenses..." Shi Yi looked at Tian Kai's face from sunny to cloudy, and didn't continue talking.

"Do you still want me to pay for the military expenses? Beihai is so rich that there are few counties in the world comparable to it. Kong Rong is a clean and honest man, and he is from a famous family with a very high reputation. Is it possible that the military salary of only [-] soldiers should be paid by myself?" Can the assassin come out for him?" Tian Kai looked a little unhappy, looking at Shi Yi and asked.

"This...then wait for me to go back and discuss with the lord! Farewell!" Seeing that there was no official around who spoke for him, Shi Yi didn't say much. go.

"Hmph, let's continue talking about the increase in troops in other counties..." Tian Kai narrowed his eyes and looked at Shi Yi's back and snorted coldly, then looked at the other officials in the room and continued.

Beihai County Prefect's Mansion
Kong Rong sat at the top, followed by Zong Bao, Sun Shao, Wu Anguo and a group of low-level generals and advisors. (Sun Shao, courtesy name Changxu, the first Prime Minister of the State of Wu, also started in Beihai County. He belongs to the first-class adviser)
"The anti-thief forces in our county are becoming more and more rampant. I wonder if you have any countermeasures?" Kong Rong stood up, looked at the map of his own county, and asked the NPCs behind him in a questioning tone.

"My lord, I am willing to lead [-] officers and troops to wipe out the bandits in the plain." General Zong Bao, Kong Rong's number one confidant, stood up, clasped his fists, and begged Kong Rong for a fight.

"Okay! I..." Kong Rong was overjoyed, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Sun Shao: "My lord, you must not make a dangerous move this time. The current situation is really unfavorable for your lord, and Tian Kai will be provoked by external threats." , many bandits, and rogues stared at the position of the lord covetously. There are more than a million heroes, knights, and thousands of village chiefs and village alliances attached to or walking in Beihai County. If we encircle and suppress the rebels in Pingyuan Mountain, then it is possible that these forces will take advantage of the chaos, and then we will not be worth the loss!" Sun Shao is referring to the heroes and knights here as players.

At first, Kong Rong was displeased because Sun Shao interrupted him, but the more he listened, the more he nodded, but after Sun Shao finished speaking, he frowned and asked, "It won't work if you don't fight. It’s time for me to delay the military plane, so what should I do?”

"My lord, we can negotiate with the rebels first, and make them relax their vigilance. At the same time, we will severely suppress all village alliances, charge high taxes, limit their development, and let them pay tribute to consume military supplies. , In this way, on the one hand, it can reduce our county's excessive military and political expenditures, and on the other hand, it can suppress the development of the village." Sun Shao cupped his hands and vividly explained his plan.

"It's hard to guarantee that those villages will rebel! After all, the tax is too high, and they have no way to survive." Kong Rong asked puzzled.

"No, we can issue an edict like this, all player villages that join the Beihai Alliance can pay half of the tax and receive our military protection, and we will use the strategy of driving tigers and wolves to fight against the rebels. It won't be long before all the illegal alliances in Beihai County will be dismantled, and if any alliance raises a banner to openly rebel against the Han, then we will wipe them out!" Sun Shao continued to explain his approach.

"What do you all think of this approach?" Kong Rong was moved when he heard Sun Shao's plan that could completely wipe out the territory of Beihai County almost without bloodshed.

"I'm just afraid of causing instability among the people! If this plan is implemented, it will definitely have a considerable negative effect." A middle-ranking general shook his head and said with a sigh.

"I think it's good. However, this plan may be too reluctant to implement for the current Beihai County, because we don't have too many troops to conquer them. [-] soldiers from the county, [-] guard the city of Beihai County, and [-] guard the city." In other counties, it is enough." Wu Anguo, who was promoted by Kong Rongxin to be the commander of Beihai County, also interjected.

"Then recruit, I plan to expand to [-] first, and implement this plan in a month." Kong Rong gritted his teeth and made a decision.

"My lord is wise!" Everyone wanted Kong Rong to increase his troops, and when Kong Rong said it himself, they were all overjoyed and praised.
