The matter has to start with the junior village of "Hanxiang Village".

Previously, Yang Rui was worried about causing unnecessary misunderstandings and deliberately stayed away from the "Hanxiang Village". However, as soon as he left, others came here! These people were the thieves who Yang Rui wanted to conquer but could not reach it!

"Hanxiang Village" is located in the southeast downstream of Shuiyuan Village and is very close to Wenshui. The village founder - Hanlaixiang actually got a village building token shortly after the game started and quickly established the village. So far, it has been more than two months since the real time!

When he chose to build the village near Wenshui, Han Laixiang actually had his own ideas. On the one hand, Han Laixiang is a person who likes quietness. The source of Wenshui is mostly hilly land with mountains extending, covered with bushes, and flat areas are dense streams, swamps, and weeds, and few people will come nearby.

On the other hand, Han Laixiang also felt that this place was suitable for village development. At the beginning, Han Laixiang discovered that there were many fishery resources distributed in the Wenshui River, which was slow to the water. There were also a large number of fine sandy shallows on both sides of the Wenshui River. Many fish could be caught with bare hands to serve as food.

Therefore, Hanlaixiang chose a location to build a village here. At first, Hanlaixiang's village developed very smoothly. With the addition of fishery resources in the Wenshui River, Hanxiang Village solved the food restrictions that plagued the development of most villages. The population quickly accumulated to 500 people and could be upgraded to an intermediate village immediately.

For this reason, Han Laixiang even called two of the few friends in reality to develop the village together. The village building tokens were very scarce at the initial stage of the game. These two friends were invited by Han Laixiang, so they naturally came to join his village very happily.

However, the good times did not last long. Just when Hanxiang Village was about to accumulate enough resources and was about to upgrade to an intermediate village, the pirates suddenly appeared on a boat! These pirates who came out of nowhere came roaring from the upstream in a fast boat and rushed into Hanxiang Village indiscriminately. They slashed and plundered, destroying most of the buildings needed for upgrading, and almost overturned the entire village!

After a burst of burning, killing and looting, there were only less than 100 villagers left in Hanxiang Village, and all units that could fight were killed, almost all resources were kidnapped, and only the buildings were the political center and dozens of thatched huts!

It can be said that after the robbers of the water thieves, Hanxiang Village was almost destroyed, and Hanlaixiang and the other two friends and players were also greatly affected! The only thing that is thankful is that the water thieves did not demolish the political center and the village has not been destroyed yet!

Han Laixiang and his friends did not feel discouraged, but instead worked hard to develop the small village, re-suming farmers, renovating buildings, and accumulating resources... At the same time, they also strengthened their investigation of the surrounding environment to prevent the thieves on the Wenshui River from harassing their village again.

Unfortunately, in just a few days, Han Laixiang discovered the pirate's nest along the river. The pirate's dock is only sixty or seventy miles away from their village. It is not worth mentioning compared to the vast map of the game. As long as the pirates have an idea, cooperate with the fast ship and walk on the boat, they can reach their village by stretching their legs!

Sure enough, within ten days, these thieves visited Hanxiang Village again, looted all the resources of the village again, destroyed most of the buildings except for some thatched huts, and slaughtered the village's population to about 100 again!

The thieves don’t want to let Hanxiang Village go! This is also a bit strange because Han Laixiang didn’t have enough inspection when he chose the village address, but it was too late to say anything at this time!

After being visited by the Wenshui pirates for the third time, Han Laixiang's two friends suddenly retreated and repeatedly persuaded Han Laixiang to give up this village and seek other developments. However, Han Laixiang never gave up! Even though the two friends left Han Xiang Village one after another, he was not shaken in the end!

After several lootings in the village, Han Laixiang also summarized the activities of the thieves. They "visited" Hanxiang Village almost every eight days (2 grain production cycles), and each time they kept about 100 villagers (and a small amount of rations were reserved for these villagers), destroying most buildings but retaining thatched huts that can live in. As for the soldiers defending in the village, they were unlucky and were slaughtered every time!

Moreover, the target of the thieves "guarded" is not Hanxiang Village. Hanlaixiang once discovered a system village and an abandoned player village in the downstream location, and saw with his own eyes the scene after the system village was looted. It was very similar to the scene when Hanxiang Village was looted. They only retained a certain population and housing, and all the rest were destroyed, killed or robbed away!

The difference is that this system village is much larger than its Hanxiang Village, and it should be an intermediate or advanced village. Moreover, the thieves rarely kill people every time they robbed, because the population growth of the system village is very slow, and the population of this system village is almost constant at about 500 people!

As for the abandoned player village, it should be unable to withstand the robbers of the thieves and gave up!

Han Laixiang finally understood that the thieves wanted to use his village as a free supply point! Otherwise, some of the villagers would not be retained for him every time. These were all the resources that the thieves stayed to accumulate!

After repeated thinking, Han Laixiang thought of a way to deal with it in recent days, which is to calculate the time when the thieves robbed the village. Every time they arrived, they transferred all the soldiers in the village to other places. The villagers only kept about 100 people in the village, and the rest were scattered far away from the village to hide, so that they could barely retain some of the vitality.

Until Yang Rui showed up with 200 soldiers, Han Laixiang calculated the time almost the same, but it was only half a day earlier. He thought the thieves were coming to rob resources, so he closed the door to prevent the thieves from entering the village. He had not had time to transfer military strength and villagers!

Back to the topic, Yang Rui led his troops away from Hanxiang Village. He never thought that the thieves would come here within a half day. Yang Rui, who was keeping a close eye on the whereabouts of the thieves, naturally learned the information and quickly rushed towards Hanxiang Village.

Due to Yang Rui's accidental "harassment", Hanxiang Village was already ready this time and transferred all the military forces and some villagers in the village in advance. Han Laixiang himself also left the village with as many resources as possible, leaving only 100 villagers stranded in Hanxiang Village.
