Chapter 254 How to defend the city with less than 500 people
The plan to raid the camp at night led by the four players of Zijin Club went very smoothly, and captured many high-level barbarians in one fell swoop. reason.
There is no requirement that managers be better at fighting than those under them, as long as they can manage and make suggestions.
Of course, four soldiers under Gu Shanhai’s command who ran away were captured together. They wanted to be deserters, but they were inexperienced. They were caught without a glance, and their heads are still hanging on the flagpole.
The higher-ups also sent someone to warn Gu Shanhai, but with the help of four players from Zijin Club to say good things, the follow-up turned such a major issue into a trivial matter.
These four people directly relied on this military merit to squeeze into the upper echelons of Wulaoguan, and Gu Shanhai was also transferred to the back to watch the food.
Said it was to watch the food, but in fact it meant that he didn’t have to do anything, and let him sit at the door every day as a security guard.
It can be regarded as indirectly preventing him from going to the battlefield. It has to be said that the leveling quality of the big forces is high.
There is no need for Gu Shanhai to do anything after busy work, as long as he lies flat.
"Boss, have you eaten yet?" Li Chen walked over slowly, with a relaxed look on his face.
"No, why, are you going to let me punch you?" Gu Shanhai complained, he always felt that this guy was going to ask him for props again.
"How is it possible, I'm almost going to confess to you, the boss." Li Chen was a little embarrassed, the boss was a bit unserious, not at all stable like a middle-aged man.
"Okay, I misunderstood you, I'm sorry." The perfunctory degree of Gu Shanhai's apology made Li Chen feel that the boss really has a strange temper.
"By the way, this is the spoils of the boss, you can pick and choose." Li Chen took out some things and put them in front of Gu Shanhai.
In fact, there are no good things, they are all equipment or consumables, and Gu Shanhai is not interested after a glance.
The equipment is standard equipment, and the consumables are also things such as gold sore medicine, which are of average quality, and even Li Chen doesn't think much of them.
As the players of the first echelon, they naturally have better players.
"I don't want anything, you can keep it to yourself." Gu Shanhai said with a bit of disgust.
Li Chen also knew that Gu Shanhai would definitely not like it. The reason why he shared it with Gu Shanhai was to show his attitude. They are power leveling, and the boss will take the good things first.
As for not having good things, that is another matter, but you must have an attitude.
"Then I would like to thank the boss." Li Chen accepted it with a smile. He is useless and can be exchanged for a small contribution by throwing it in the Zijin Club.
"By the way, today is the second day. It is very likely that the barbarians will come to attack the city at night. Then, boss, you should hide better. If you can repel the barbarians tonight, you should be able to complete the task tomorrow." Put the things away After that, Li Chen said seriously.
However, he didn't finish his sentence. Tomorrow may be a big attack, and it will be even more difficult then.
It’s normal to have a peaceful day today. The other party has no leader, and the one who was made a fuss by the strategy of tired soldiers needs at least some recuperation.
Therefore, there is a high probability that they will reproduce what they did at night.
It’s just that there are quite a few differences between the two. The barbarians are stationed in camps, and it will be quite difficult for them to break through the Wulao Pass.
Even though it is just a small pass, even if the strength of the ghost pattern Taoist soldiers is as strong as that of the early stage of Zifu, the wall of Wulao Pass is nearly 100 meters long, and there is also the art of war left by the soldier master. The barbarian soldiers are in the foundation building stage, and the ghost pattern Taoist soldiers are in the purple mansion stage. It is not a big problem to cross a hundred-meter city wall.
It is said that the walls in the real main pass are all 10,000-meter-level.
It's normal to think about it. Ordinary people have the level of Qi refining stage, well-trained ordinary soldiers can even reach the foundation building stage, and the upper limit of Dao soldiers is even higher.
The number of extraordinary beings far exceeds many worlds, so it is not a problem to build a 10,000-meter-level city wall.
It is normal that no corresponding science has been developed. There are many kinds of military masters and Taoist soldiers, covering all kinds of ecological niches in the entire world.
"Are you sure? Why do I think you look a little guilty?" Gu Shanhai looked at the other party suspiciously, even if he didn't know much about strategy, tomorrow should be the most dangerous.
Oh, not quite right, it should be dangerous at all times, after all, as long as the city is broken, it will fail.
"This. Maybe it's okay. There might be a general attack tomorrow. Boss, why don't you find a safer place to hide?" Li Chen didn't hide anything when he heard this.
"Okay, where to hide?" Gu Shanhai agreed without hesitation.
reject? Why did he refuse? He spent the money to enjoy it, not to go to the battlefield with the other party as soon as his brain got hot.
They are power leveling to complete the task, so they have to work hard. Gu Shanhai is the boss, and it is enough to spend money to follow along. There is no need to follow to the battlefield.
"I have to look for it. I'll give you an answer to the boss tonight." Li Chen didn't find it strange that Gu Shanhai agreed. The boss, the idea of this kind of boss is very simple, he doesn't care what you do, as long as he gets the task reward.
In Li Chen's eyes, Gu Shanhai is this type of boss, and he is also the type they like the most. What they hate the most is the boss of the plot party type. Sometimes the difficulty makes them feel numb.
After Li Chen left in a hurry, he didn't come at night either.
Gu Shanhai also knew the reason why he didn't come, he heard the shouts of beating and killing one after another.
They all guessed wrong. The barbarians didn't come to attack at night, but did it in the evening.
After taking a day off today, I feel energetic again.
So as the main force, the four players of the Zijin Club were recruited away, and they played very hotly on the front line.
"It should be able to hold on, but I am more confused. They can hold on, why do they have to go out to confront each other?" Gu Shanhai was a little puzzled.
Although Wulao Pass is not a strong pass, it may not last long under the five thousand barbarian soldiers and one hundred ghost pattern Taoist soldiers, but after two setbacks by the barbarians, plus there is still one day left, it is only possible to not send troops. Perseverance should also be able to bear it.
But Gu Shanhai also realized that maybe it wasn't because they wanted to go out of the city to fight, but because they had to.
Soon, Gu Shanhai found the reason. He found that there were not many arrows in the arsenal, which was very strange.
It is reasonable to say that a pass, as an important place, must at least have arrows.
Not even the crossbow was developed.
The reasons for not developing crossbows are similar to those of rolling logs. Crossbows rely on mechanical power to launch. In a world without any extraordinary, it is indeed far superior to bows.
In a world with supernatural beings, people can directly blow up a mountain with a bow, unless the crossbow and arrows are made of special materials and extraordinary craftsmanship, otherwise they are basically incomparable.
Probably means that crossbow arrows have fixed damage, and bow arrows can add additional user attributes.
Therefore, most of the defense of the city is actually based on bows and arrows. When people's bows and arrows can play the power of howitzers, there is not much difference between hot weapons and cold weapons.
It is precisely because of the lack of arrows that it is impossible to defend the city.
More importantly, there are no archers yet. Obviously one thing is certain, that is, the military masters and Taoist soldiers guarding the Wulao Pass should be of the bow and arrow type.
Otherwise, if there is a shortage, it is unlikely that only arrows will be missing, and it is more likely that everything will be missing.
As for the barbarians who don't have archers, there's a greater probability that they won't be able to train them.
The shouting and killing outside lasted until the middle of the night, and then slowly stopped.
Obviously, it was really hard to fight, so they called for money to withdraw troops, or it might be because too many people died, so they had to withdraw troops.
Li Chen didn't come back until it was almost dawn.
"Wulao Pass may not be able to hold it tomorrow." Upon returning, Li Chen sighed: "I will handle the refund procedures for you later, the boss."
"So absolutely?" Gu Shanhai scratched his head, thinking he had won.
Gu Shanhai didn't pay much attention to the fighting situation outside at all. It didn't matter to him. If he couldn't get out because of the air wall, he wouldn't be able to take care of the mission. Therefore, he has been researching the goddess system for a while.
"It's not that absolute, but the winning rate is not high, at most there is a 30% chance of defending Wulao Pass." Li Chen was still confident this morning.
As a result, I really lost confidence after finishing the game.
The entire Wulao guards are now less than 500 people, and even one of the players who came with him died, that’s right, the heavy armor sword shield hand Baishan, he has been taking damage as a meat shield, but he couldn’t carry it, it’s gone .
Fortunately, Li Chen didn't have any ideas. It's normal for teammates to die in such a difficult dungeon. If you really pass the level, you can just pay compensation when you go back. After all, four people are playing the dungeon together, and the other party is not a bastard, so the other party is rare. They have to compensate for the reward, otherwise they would be teammates.
Teammates are all good and bad, and they have cooperated for so many years, and they are not plastic teammates.
It’s just that this time Li Chen doesn’t know if he can pass the dungeon. If he fails to pass the level, he will lose a lot. Not only will he not get the reward, but he will have to refund Gu Shanhai’s money.
Power leveling must be paid only after you have passed the practice, instead of collecting money if you say you can’t pass it, that is called robbery.
It will ruin their reputation. Although they are powerful, they will only target those players who have no strength, such as Gu Shanhai and other big life players. It is too late to make friends. The friendship between mountains and seas is a profit, and a lot of money.
"Then defend it first, let's talk if you can't defend it." Gu Shanhai didn't care much about it.
At this time, Li Chen also misunderstood Gu Shanhai's meaning, thinking that Gu Shanhai still wanted to gamble on the task, but in fact Gu Shanhai meant that it was fine if he could do it, and if he couldn't, it was fine.
"We will do our best." Li Chen could only say that, or else he really couldn't help it.
But it’s not really helpless, he saw that Gu Shanhai had a mecha in his hand before, if he could borrow it, it might be able to break the situation, but he just thought about it.
Mecha-type equipment is extremely valuable, maybe even higher than the mission reward this time, how could it be possible to lend it to him, if it were me, I would rather not give such high-value equipment to others without receiving rewards.
The reason why Gu Shanhai doesn't use it, Li Chen thinks, is because of insufficient attributes.
Hearing Li Chen said that he should do his best, Gu Shanhai was still thinking about how you can try your best to win. Just now he scanned the gap between the two sides with his spiritual sense.
There are only 472 people left in Wulaoguan who can fight, and all of them are wounded.
The opposite side is better, there are 41 ghost-marked Taoist soldiers left, and 3,251 barbarian soldiers. There is a huge gap between the ghost-marked Taoist soldiers alone, not to mention the barbarian soldiers.
30% chance of winning, Gu Shanhai felt that Li Chen was too confident, and 10% chance of winning was too much.
Gu Shanhai didn't correct them either, so don't worry about the power leveling. Anyway, Gu Shanhai has put two months of life on them.
If he succeeds, he pays the bus fare for nothing, but if he fails, he can live for two months and get a level 1 life-enhancing pill and come back.
Li Chen chatted with Gu Shanhai again, but it was not about any valuable content, it was more to appease Gu Shanhai, expressing that they could guarantee Gu Shanhai to complete the task to the greatest extent.
Obviously, he was also worried that Gu Shanhai's impression of them would decline, which would lead to a bad impression of the entire Zijin Club.
Regarding this, Gu Shanhai was also a little dumbfounded, what kind of thing is this.
Finally, after talking for a long time, I sent the person away.
"Sure enough, as long as your strength and value keep up, you will be surrounded by good people to coax you." Gu Shanhai complained silently.
If it were an ordinary player, how could Li Chen come here to ask his relatives and arrange various benefits.
But ordinary players can't afford to hire Li Chen and other first-tier players to do leveling.
Power leveling must be of a certain level. Like Li Chen, if you want them to help with power leveling, the price is very high, so Gu Shanhai doesn't feel that he is rich.
"Well, it's the third day, so I shouldn't be able to wake up in the morning, right?"
Just as Gu Shanhai finished speaking, he heard the noise outside again.
After listening carefully, it is certain that the barbarians are attacking the city again.
"This time, I should really plan to break the boat." Gu Shanhai suspected that the barbarians might have obtained some news, such as the military master of Wulao Pass returning with Dao soldiers. , then they have to withdraw their troops.
The ghost pattern Taoist soldiers are strong, but they are not led by the soldier master, and the number is not even half of when they came here. If they really meet the reinforcements, under the command of the soldier master, a Taoist soldier of the same level can kill them all They are forty-one ghost tattoo soldiers.
