291 Dissuading Ma Teng to resign and celebrate his merits

Ma Teng personally led 20,000 heavily armored infantry to Gulang Gorge. Both Ma Yu and Pang De's vanguard troops failed to capture Gulang Gorge, which made Ma Teng furious. Gulang Gorge was the gateway to Wuwei, and even Gulang Gorge could not take Gulang Gorge. How could his army seize Wuwei City?

In the main tent of the military camp, Ma Teng sat in the chief, his face feeling angry. The handsome child sat upright on his side, with a serious face tense, and did not dare to move around. He glanced at Ma Teng from time to time.

The other NPCs were placed on both sides of the tent, and they were quite anxious when they saw Ma Teng’s bad expression. Especially Ma Yu and Pang De, the two pioneers.

Ma Teng asked, "Chengxi, Ling Ming, why have you not taken down Gulang Gorge for a few days?"

Ma Yu stepped out of the line and said anxiously: "Report to the lord, when I led the 3,000 vanguard troops to Gulang Gorge, Gulang Gorge had been occupied by 10,000 enemy troops. Although the soldiers fought to the death to attack Gulang Gorge for one morning and night, they failed to completely conquer it. In the early morning, tens of thousands of reinforcements from the enemy arrived, and our vanguard troops were forced to leave Gulang Gorge."

Pang De also reported: "Lord, when I led my army to Gulang Gorge, there were tens of thousands of Xiaobai Army troops stationed here. At present, our army has lost more than 3,000 troops, and the enemy has also lost tens of thousands. However, there is no sign of collapse in the enemy's army. If our army wants to take down Gulang Gorge, we are afraid that at least more than 5,000 brothers will be lost."

Pang De's words moved the generals and officers in the tent. Five thousand soldiers were equal to one-quarter of the entire army, which was just a conservative estimate. When they arrived at the city of Wuwei, how many soldiers could they still remain to attack Wuwei?

Ma Teng frowned. Pang De was the most talented general of civil and military under his command. Pang De made such a cautious estimate, but he was afraid that he would not be optimistic about taking Gulangxia.

However, Wuwei City is too tempting to him. Once Wuwei City is taken down, it is equivalent to controlling the wealthy Hexi Corridor in his own hands. Anding City and Beidi City are not as strategic as Wuwei City.

Ma Teng shouted: "All the soldiers of the army set up camps on the spot to rectify the heavily armored infantry. Tomorrow I will lead the troops to attack Gulang Gorge!"

"yes!"

All the generals and schools drank together.

......

A series of fierce battles inevitably broke out.

For several days, Ma Teng personally led his troops to attack Gulang Gorge. This time, the heavy armor infantry at level 70 and heavy armor strong archers at level 60 were able to adapt to positional battles like the canyon. The battle was almost tragic, and both sides invested their troops regardless of cost to force the other side out of the canyon.

In the Little White Alliance, players from the Alliance Village have arrived continuously, gathering nearly 50,000 warriors, a total of 50,000 legions of 1,000 people. Each legion of player takes turns to fight, and in the extremely narrow area of ​​Gulang Gorge - a canyon with a width of only 20 meters to 100 meters, and both sides are cliffs. After being killed, they are directly resurrected in the camp behind. After resting for 12 hours, they pick up their equipment to continue fighting.

Almost every hour, the player's troops will be killed by the force of a thousand-man legion. At the rate of losing one legion in an hour, fifty legions will take at least fifty hours to be killed once.

In the past few days, as many as 50,000 warrior players have almost lost one level together, and the losses are huge.

The player legion commanders from the villages were a little anxious. Such a fierce battle was several times higher than the price paid to win a Wuwei City. Taking Wuwei City only killed thousands of players. These players were not killed in vain, but in the end, the villages of the Little White Alliance had to pay for their sacrifices. The losses in each village were very great.

Therefore, the commanders of the legions of various villages considered whether to retreat slowly and reduce losses.

Qiu Shui was very determined and said, "According to Xiaobai's decision, he would do anything to guard Gulang Gorge! Never retreat at this critical moment!"

Ma Teng's army also suffered heavy losses, killing nearly 4,000 heavily armored infantry, forcibly advancing several miles. To seize the remaining section of the canyon, it takes a little more effort.

These precious few days won time for Zhan Xiaobai to mobilize troops.

Zhan Xiaobai personally led an NPC army to Gulang Gorge, with a level 2,700-level spear halberd heavy armored soldiers, a level 1,600-level heavy armored strong archers, and a level 1,60-level heavy cavalry. An extremely huge wave of cheers sounded throughout Gulang Gorge.

Zhan Xiaobai led his army to arrive. Although there were not many troops, it made the players' morale calm.

Zhan Xiaobai soon met Qiu Shui and other legion commanders who were in charge of sniping, as well as the heart-shaped shells, Dong Xiaobei, Feng Changqing and other nearby village chiefs, and learned about the latest battle situation.

After knowing the battle situation, Zhan Xiaobai put on his armor and came to the front line of the battlefield accompanied by the commanders of the legion.

A canyon battlefield less than 100 meters was filled with hundreds of infantry soldiers from both sides. Both sides held weapons and were almost close to the battle. There were arrows flying all over the sky, and no players or NPCs were concerned about it. Who was hit by the shooting? The shouts of killing were shocking, and people were on the verge of the horse, and they were tragic.

Ma Teng is tall and big, and is very conspicuous among a group of NPC infantrymen.

Zhan Xiaobai saw Ma Teng, who was in charge of the battle hundreds of meters away at first sight.

Zhan Xiaobai stood on a high slope, clamored and shouted to the opposite side: "General Ma Teng, my Xiaobai guards Wuwei City on behalf of the court. I don't know what you are trying to lead your army to my Wuwei County?"

His shouts attracted the attention of Ma Teng opposite him.

When Ma Teng saw Zhan Xiaobai, he was surprised and laughed, "Oh, is General Xiaobai coming from the opposite side? Only the virtues in Wuwei City are here. If you kill the original prefect and occupy the magpie's nest, don't think that others don't know. Now I will replace you and make trouble right, it is a natural act!"

Zhan Xiaobai was not annoyed and laughed: "General Ma Teng. As the Sima of the Governor Geng Bi, you seized his troops after the Governor died. It would be fine if you took it for yourself, but instead colluded with the Qiang rebels and went against the court. I'm afraid that the lord is not more virtuous than me. Why do you laugh at a hundred steps with fifty steps?"

Ma Teng was speechless.

Zhan Xiaobai said loudly: "I have personally led 10,000 heavily armored soldiers in Wuwei City to arrive at Gulang Gorge. General Ma Teng wants to destroy my Gulang Gorge defenders, at least one month. It will take another month to take down my Wuwei City. I wonder how much food and grass General Ma Teng has? Ten days or half a month? I'm afraid you won't be able to hold on at that time!"

Zhan Xiaobai waved his hand, and the heavy armored infantry behind him surged up in the sky. He replaced the player's position and occupied an important barrier in the canyon. The Ma Teng army will face not only players, but the same elite heavy armored soldiers. It is impossible to continue to advance forward.

Zhan Xiaobai said that he had 10,000 heavily armored soldiers, and of course he told a small lie that he would be invincible for Ma Teng to put pressure on him.

Ma Teng was shocked and skeptical. If there were ten thousand heavy armored soldiers, not to mention a month, he would not be able to take over this Gulang Gorge even if he fought for another half a year. How could Xiaobai have so many heavy armored soldiers?

Ma Teng asked, "Sir Xiaobai, as far as I know, there are not many soldiers in Wuwei City. Where did you get ten thousand heavy armored soldiers?"

Zhan Xiaobai laughed and said, "The wealth of Wuwei City is gathered, with the various families of Wuwei, and the wealthy merchants are helping each other. It is also a simple matter to recruit 30,000 heavily armored soldiers. In addition to the 10,000 Gulangxia, I have 20,000 troops left in Wuwei City. General Ma Teng wants to seize my Wuwei City, so he will try it. See if my first army is destroyed or if you have finished your food first. However, I suggest that General Ma Teng should make plans early. There is no hope of seizing the Lord of Wuwei City, but both of Anding City and Beidicheng are currently very empty, with less than thousands of troops and no steep passes. This is a good opportunity to occupy. If someone takes the lead, I am afraid that the general will regret it."

Ma Teng's face was clear. Obviously, he was considering the possibility of Zhan Xiaobai's words. He would never believe that Wuwei City had 30,000 heavy armored soldiers. However, more than 10,000 heavy armored soldiers were very likely. As long as six or seven thousand of them were deployed in this Gulang Gorge, he would not have the possibility of breaking through Gulang Gorge.

Ma Teng saw the countless heavy armored soldiers behind Zhan Xiaobai, and knew that what Zhan Xiaobai said was true. With the persuasion of his many generals, he finally chose to retreat wisely.

Ma Teng's army lost more than 5,000 armored infantry and more than 3,000 armored cavalry in Gulang Gorge. They suffered heavy losses and began to turn around and head towards Anding County.

War stops in the battlefield of Gulangxia.

"Not giving!"

Zhan Xiaobai held his hands behind his back and watched Ma Tengjun leave with a faint smile.

After a few words, Ma Teng was persuaded to retreat. Qiu Shui and other legion commanders were admired by the village chiefs.

The players in the canyon suddenly burst into cheers, sniping the battle of Ma Teng and achieving a complete victory. The whole army celebrated, and all the players were celebrating this great victory.

Many players invited Zhan Xiaobai to attend the celebration.

Zhan Xiaobai smiled and declined. He didn't have time to attend the celebration now. Although Ma Tengjun left, it does not mean that other NPC warlords would not come. If Han Sui, Bian Zhang and others suddenly had the idea of ​​attacking Wuwei City, it would be a headache.

He asked his subordinates to lead the heavily armored soldiers, peasants and craftsmen, to immediately build a towering "pass" in the dangerous land of Gulang Gorge. One thousand heavy armored infantry and one thousand heavy armored strong archers were stationed at this dangerous pass.

As long as this pass is built, it can easily resist the invasion of tens of thousands of troops. If Ma Teng and others lead their troops to invade, they can only sigh at the checkpoint.

While Zhan Xiaobai ordered the construction of the pass, he was also considering the candidate for the pass chief.

Because it is a long-term station, the guard mission here is boring and players will definitely not work. NPC military generals must be the chief. It is best to be a general from Xiaobai Town, which is conducive to completely taking the pass into his own hands.

After thinking about it, Zhan Xiaobai thought of Cheng Jian. Cheng Jian, who was born as a horse thief, is very enterprising and his ability is also good in Xiaobai Town. What is important is reliability.

He called Cheng Jian and asked, "Cheng Jian, you have been following me for a while. He has been a low-level general and has not had many opportunities to lead the army alone. I wonder what you think?"

Cheng Jian didn't understand what Zhan Xiaobai wanted to say, but he knew what he should say, and immediately said: "I don't have any ideas, I just want to follow my lord and serve my lord!"

Zhan Xiaobai smiled and said, "Okay, I officially promoted you to the seventh-rank Zhongyi Captain of Xiaobai Town, and appointed you as the commander of Gulangxia Pass, leading a thousand heavy armored infantry and a thousand heavy armored strong archers, and garrisoning here for a long time. This task is arduous and arduous. I wonder if you are willing to serve as the commander of this pass?"

Cheng Jian naturally knew the importance of this pass, and was overjoyed and thanked him: "I dare not refuse, thank you lord for your reward!"

This appointment made him officially become a general under Xiaobai's commander who was leading the army to guard one side, and was not comparable to ordinary generals. This was exactly what he wanted, so of course he would not refuse.

The celebration banquet is finally there.

In Beike Village, the big village closest to Gulang Gorge, the village chief's heart-shaped shell is east, and a victory banquet was held to inspire the morale of the players in the entire army. After handling the matter of the pass, Zhan Xiaobai led the commanders of the Little White Alliance to come to Beike Village.

Outside the Shell Village, more than 100,000 players gathered to hold a bonfire party, wishing players a huge victory in the first battle with the NPC warlords.

Zhan Xiaobai and other hundreds of important players attended the celebration banquet.

At the banquet, Zhan Xiaobai personally thanked the players who made great efforts in this war. He picked up a glass of rice wine, stood up, and sang to the people in the square: "For this glass of wine, I must first respect the village chief of Beike Village, Xiaobei Village, Fengzhi Village, the commander of the army, and all brothers. It was your day-long bloody battle that prevented the Ma Teng army from occupying Gulang Gorge. This allowed my Little White Alliance Army to rush to the Gulang Gorge battlefield to participate in the battle! On behalf of the Little White Alliance Army, I respect all the brothers in the Three Villages with a cup!"

Tens of thousands of players in the three villages cheered in unison.

The village chiefs and corps commanders of the three villages toast. "Thank you!" "We also toast Boss Xiaobai!" "Without Boss Xiaobai support, we would not dare to fight Ma Tengjun!"

After drinking a drink.

Zhan Xiaobai raised the second cup, "This second cup, I want to respect all the soldiers of the Xiaobai Alliance Army. It was your bloody battle at all costs that created the miracle of successfully sniping the Ma Teng warlord! Players have always believed that the npc warlords are invincible, but you have proved with facts that we can completely defeat the npc warlords. This is the first miracle created by players in the entire game!"

The Little White Alliance Army was cheering loudly and people were filled with hearts. This was indeed the first victory achieved by the players facing the warlords alone.

"The third cup, I want to stay away from all the villages and towns of the Little White Alliance, and far away from Wuwei City. All the players who are silently doing logistics work, NPC craftsmen and farmers. It is their silent contribution that we can have no worries, no need to worry about insufficient food and grass, insufficient blood and medicine, and poor equipment, and be able to devote ourselves to the battle. I also want to stay here to respect NPC soldiers who died in this war. They may not have names, but their merits are indelible! My Little White Alliance is composed of such a group of civil and military soldiers who can stabilize the country, fight bloody martial arts, and dare to sacrifice."

The excitement was not only ordinary warrior players, NPC soldiers, but also many generals, legion commanders, village chiefs, and non-warrior professions. Their emotions were all mobilized by Zhan Xiaobai, and they were so excited that they could not suppress them.

Some of them seek fame, some seek power, some seek profit, and some seek nothing, and only pursue a dream of a dream of a dream of the Three Kingdoms. Now, they have all found their place in the grand scheme of Zhan Xiaobai's planning. No matter what the purpose is, following Zhan Xiaobai will be the best way for them to achieve their goals.

Zhan Xiaobai raised his wine glass high, and was full of energy and shouted: "Little White Alliance - will surely win Liangzhou and be invincible all over the world! Cheers to the future of Little White Alliance!"

With Zhan Xiaobai's shout, the heroic voice broke out in the suburbs of Beike Village, "Long live the Little White Alliance--!"
Chapter completed!
