Chapter 211: The People Are United! Three Major Impacts! A New Recruitment Plan!

Wen Pin is a great general who has left a name in history. He is extremely good at defense and garrison. As long as he is there, both the army and the town will become impregnable and difficult to break through. He is definitely a rare top talent.

Any high-level star lord has a vast territory, and the larger the territory, the more areas it borders. In this case, invaders may appear in any direction.

When the size of the territory reaches a certain level.

It is normal to encounter invasions when wars break out on multiple fronts.

This invasion not only comes from the star lord, but also from the counterattack of the abyss forces, or even more complex external infiltration. In short, it is a very tricky threat!

When Hang Yu was studying at the Lord Academy.

He had seen too many lords in textbooks who were invincible in attacking cities and strongholds all the way, but in the end, because of a momentary negligence and the loss of the rear, their homes were stolen... Such cases are not isolated cases!

It happens in almost every period and every place, and it is a bloody lesson that makes people sigh!

Because of this, an excellent defensive professional hero in the stars is very valuable and very popular.

Hang Yu didn't need to spend a fortune to hire professional heroes from the stars.

Because Wen Pin's potential and training value are enough to make those star generals with an annual salary of one million magic crystals far behind!

He is definitely capable of guarding the rear or a line of defense!

With him, the territory can not only become safer, but also be able to resist the enemy at a critical moment, so that the lord can devote all his energy to the main battlefield without worries!

"The overall situation has been decided. In this case, it's time to distribute the rewards!"

Hang Yu took out about 20 million essences, plus a large amount of contribution points, several black dragon spirit horse bone whistles, hundreds of attribute medicines, and skill cards, training cards and other props as prizes to the players participating in the action.

The reward for this task is definitely not as rich as the Dark Day Campaign. After all, the difficulty of the two tasks is not at the same level, but 20 million essences injected into the Scourge Army can also play a role in boosting its strength.

For a while.

The Scourge Army outside cheered.

Because the mission settlement not only represents a lot of energy and rewards.

It also means that the territory has completely completed the occupation of the Xinwan area.

The magic stone is activated!

Wen Pin was successfully recruited!

The rewards for the players were also distributed!

So what important things should be done next?

Should we recruit the army first, or appease the people first?

No hurry.

There is a more important thing.

And this thing is to confiscate the house!

A Canglong Guard came to Hang Yu and knelt on one knee to report: "Report to the Lord, the warehouse in Xinwan City has been found and is currently guarded by the Canglong Guard!"

Hang Yu nodded with satisfaction: "Go and have a look!"

Zhang Xiu has been operating in Xinwan for a hundred years. It is impossible for him to be clean-handed. His private property must be a considerable fortune, and now it undoubtedly belongs to Hang Yu.

Of course.

More than private property?

As the new owner of the Xinwan area.

All the inventory resources in this city already belong to the territory.

Not long after, Hang Yu led the Canglong Guards and the players of the Scourge Army who followed to watch the fun to inspect several major storage warehouses in Xinwan City.

Not bad!

Really not bad!

Xinwan still has a lot of savings!

The gap in materials for building barracks has been settled.

This land has been shrouded by the abyss for two centuries, and Xinwan City has been established for more than a hundred years. How could it be that there is no foundation in such a long time?

Although the natives do not have the will of the stars and do not have the ability to refine all things and extract their essence, many extraordinary mineral veins and spiritual plants and herbs have been bred in the natural environment after the abyss descended.

Just relying on mining and gathering.

A lot of resources can be accumulated in a hundred years.

Moreover, Xinwan also has a large area of ​​fields for planting herbs and spiritual plants. Although there is no spiritual field with a hundred times the growth rate, it is said that God rewards hard work and accumulation of small amounts makes a lot.

For example, first-level white herbs such as Red Moon Grass and Blue Moon Grass.

If planted in the spiritual fields of Luoshui City, it will take less than three days to mature and be harvested. However, if there is no spiritual field with a hundred times the growth rate, they can also survive in the ordinary spiritual soil of the Abyss Plane.

It just takes a little longer!

The population of Xinwan has been maintained at a scale of hundreds of thousands for a long time. Year after year, day after day, collecting, planting, and digging, although a considerable part is consumed, the remaining number is still not a small number.

Hang Yu learned from Wen Pin and several Xinwan surrendered officials.

There are twelve warehouses in the entire Xinwan area.

He asked Xiao Ba to collect the registered contents of large and small warehouses and make statistics, and finally came to the following conclusions.

Most of the things stored in these warehouses are food, and all the rations are probably only enough for the residents of Wancheng for about two months.

Although it is impossible for all the food in Xinwan to be concentrated in the warehouse, the strategic storage is only this much, which is enough to show that the food in this place is very short.

In addition to ordinary rations.

Xiao Ba summarized: "The extraordinary materials in Xinwan area are estimated as follows: about 1.8 million first-level white materials, about 120,000 first-level green materials, about 280,000 second-level white materials, about 11,000 second-level green materials, 30,000 third-level white materials, and about 4,500 third-level green materials."

This number is already quite impressive!

Although most of them are storable ore materials, this type of material is not very valuable in the market, but it can be directly converted into material essence and used for territory construction.

Hang Yu asked: "Why is there so little food in stock? Is the agricultural tax in Xinwan area very low?"

Wen Pin quickly replied: "I dare not hide it from the lord. Xinwan has been in a state of war all year round and has a large-scale standing army, so it needs to consume a lot of food. The current farmer's tax is two-thirds, which is not low!"

"What? Two-thirds!"

Several players on the scene were stunned!

Xiao Lingdang asked in confusion: "Why are you all so surprised? Is this tax rate so high!"

"Of course it is high!"

"It's almost as high as the sky!"

"This is completely squeezing people to death!"

Chenxi explained at this time: "You have to know that the Three Kingdoms period was the Han Dynasty, and the agricultural tax in the early Han Dynasty was 15% tax, which was changed to 130% tax during the reign of Emperor Wen of Han, and 130% tax became the custom after Emperor Jing of Han."

"And the Xinwan area is two-thirds, which means taking two-thirds. Every time a farmer grows 100 kilograms of grain, more than 66 kilograms will be taken. It has to be handed over!"

Xiao Lingling's eyes widened: "Is it so outrageous?"

Lifting his cup and looking at the moon, he said: "Even under such heavy taxes, there is not much food in stock in warehouses everywhere... The people of Wancheng have a very hard life!"

"More than hardship!"

"It's just like cattle and horses!"

"Fortunately, we met our lord!"

"I think with the kindness of the lord, he will definitely find a way to reduce the burden on the local people."

"But it's not easy to support hundreds of thousands of people!"

"..."

The players are discussing.

Without waiting for them to express more opinions.

Hang Yu directly ordered: "Pass on this lord's order to cancel the agricultural tax and all other heavy taxes from today."

Hearing this.

The players were shocked.

Wen Pin hastily dissuaded him: "Lord, this may not be appropriate!"

Hang Yu glanced at him: "Why? Don't you want the people of Wan to live a better life?"

Wen Pin hurriedly said: "Of course I hope the people live better, but once the taxes are completely abolished, the food and grass of the three armies will be difficult to sustain. Once the Abyss War breaks out again, I am afraid..."

Hang Yu smiled and said: "Zhongye, you still underestimate this lord. This little problem is nothing to the territory!"

"This..."

Wen Pin hesitated.

Because of his understanding of Hang Yu.

This lord should not do things that he is not sure of, and will not make a whimsical decision on a whim, but exempting all taxes at once is really a big step!

"This lord will not only exempt all the people from agricultural taxes, but also open the warehouses to release grain, and distribute all the grain in the warehouses, so that every citizen can have a full stomach!"

Hang Yu paused and said: "Let the natural disaster army be responsible for executing this matter!"

As soon as the voice fell,

The Scourge Army immediately received the relevant task prompts.

Although this is just an ordinary task and the reward is not very high, it makes all the players very excited and motivated!

"Lord, you are so generous!"

"Long live the Lord!"

"Please rest assured, Lord, we will ensure that the food is delivered to the people and let all the people in Wandi feel the warmth from the territory!"

After hearing Hang Yu's decision, Ye Limeng, Xiao Lingdang, Jubei Wangyue, Chimei Wangliang, Hei Tong Ruige and others all showed admiration!

Wen Pin opened his mouth wide.

I didn't know what to say for a while.

There are still many people in Wandi who can't eat enough.

This is another way to exempt taxes and open warehouses to release grain. It is indeed a means to win the hearts of the people the fastest, but isn't the price too high!

"General Wen!"

"There is nothing our Lord cannot do!"

"What do you have to worry about?"

"You are now a member of the territory, so you have to adapt to having a powerful leader!"

"Yes!"

"Our Lord came to this world to save the people, and we still have a long journey ahead!"

"..."

The soldiers of the Calamity Army held their chests high with pride. They could already imagine the shock and gratitude of the people of Wandi when the granaries were opened for free.

This is a good thing that is both pretentious and impressive.

No one will refuse.

Especially the several corps commanders, they have realized that the Xinwan area is rich in population and there are many talents among them!

If the army can take this opportunity to build up its reputation in the Xinwan area, it will be much easier to recruit high-quality NPCs in the future!

Everyone was eager to execute the order.

Hang Yu added: "Of course, the territory's food belongs only to the people of the territory, so only those who have participated in the oath of allegiance ceremony and officially become the people of the territory are eligible to receive food and enjoy the various services of the territory!"

This is natural!

Although the territory has annexed the land in the Xinwan area.

But it has not yet completely digested the residents on this land.

The reason why Hang Yu exempted all taxes and opened warehouses to release food was actually to win people's hearts, and at the same time let the people of the seven cities and twenty-four townships swear to submit.

Although the oath of allegiance ceremony is very simple, it is very important.

Because only after this ceremony can these people officially become the people of the territory. They will not only obtain the talents given by the territory, but also can use the various facilities of the territory.

For example, the blessing point teleportation function!

Even buildings such as skill towers and enlightenment towers!

Hang Yu can even customize NPC panels for everyone through Xiao Ba, so that every resident can have their own growth space, and even the opportunity to change their fate!

…………

That night.

In the forum of the Three Kingdoms of Weirdness, more and more photos and videos about Xinwan were posted, and there were also a large number of posts of various contents posted by players in the Xinwan City area.

Seizing Xinwan City is a big deal!

All related posts are very popular!

The content of these posts is also varied and rich!

Some people are traveling to inspect the six cities and twenty-four townships, some are investigating the military strength of the troops in the Xinwan area, some are studying the homestay culture of Xinwan, and some are very interested in the characteristics of the Jiyin Sect or the major Xinwan forces.

In a short period of time.

Many new NPCs were discovered.

Many new elements and new stories were also displayed.

Let the cloud players and Weirdists feast their eyes. The large amount of information in the Xinwan area makes them feel like they are flying in a brand new world and lingering.

The Ranger Qingchen of Shenyu Palace summarized in the live broadcast post:

"So far!"

"The territory has basically completed the conquest of the Xinwan area."

"The most noteworthy thing is that our great and benevolent lord, after entering Xinwan City without bloodshed, not only did not harm the local people, but also issued a series of super benevolent policies to appease the people!"

"For example, opening the granary!"

"For example, abolishing various tortures, exempting excessive taxes, etc."

"What our lord did from beginning to end is almost a perfect interpretation of what a true savior is. I think every normal person with a positive outlook and compassion will give him a thumbs up!"

"The Scourge Legion is full of joy for being able to support such a wise and brave man. "The Lord's wisdom has spread rapidly in Xinwan, and he has won the support of the people in Xinwan in a very short time!" "It took less than half a day!" "One hundred thousand people have completed the oath!" "These people are just like the people in Shansang City. The moment they swore in Wancheng, they received blessings from the Lord and the territory. Everyone has the talent of 'self-healing'!" "Many people's old diseases and hidden injuries have been cured, and even many disabled people have recovered their health." "Not only that!" "They have also successfully unlocked the authority of an NPC in their own camp. In the future, as long as they do their job well, they will be able to... You can achieve promotion and personal development in the territory!"

"These people are worshipping the lord as a god, and other residents who have not yet completed the oath ceremony are scrambling to do so!"

"I have never seen a foreign conqueror who can win the hearts of so many people in such a short time!"

"Many touching and record-worthy deeds have occurred in this process, and all of these will become indelible marks in the history of territory development and the monument of achievements!"

"We are all witnesses!"

"We are all participants!"

"We have changed the fate of hundreds of thousands of people!"

"We saved this land and all the people on this land!"

“…”

“The conquest of Xinwan will have a profound impact on the direction of the game.”

“I think this impact includes at least three aspects:”

“First, the impact of the game content itself.”

“Xinwan has a population of hundreds of thousands, which means hundreds of thousands of NPCs. Each NPC is unique, and there is absolutely no duplication of modeling.”

“Among these NPCs, there are thousands of small characters, historical generals like Wen Pin, and even a hidden character Jia Xu.”

“After these people join the territory, they can add more story content to the game, and they can definitely enhance the strength of the territory, thereby affecting the future development of the plot.”

“Second, the impact on the Scourge.”

"After the territory annexed Xinwan City, I expect the Scourge to be greatly strengthened!"

"Because there are a large number of potential NPCs in the Xinwan area, some of these NPCs will be incorporated into the official troops of the territory, and some will be absorbed by the major corps, thereby strengthening the strength of the major corps."

"In the future, large corps cannot be composed entirely of players. There will inevitably be excellent NPC characters and even famous generals among them!"

"In addition, someone has already conducted a preliminary investigation and statistics on Xinwan skills, and currently found that there are at least five or six schools!"

"For example, the Jiyin Sect!"

"This sect founded by Jia Xu is very mysterious!"

"Not only does it have profound spells, but it also seems to be good at refining skulls to make talisman paper!"

"Now that this sect has confirmed its allegiance to the Lord, several captains have begun to try to contact the talents in it."

"In addition, the spearmanship left by Zhang Xiu, the shieldmanship of the Wenpin family, the archery of the Deng family, and the skills of several other forces or the army are also remarkable and have their own characteristics."

"In terms of quantity, More!"

"Beyond imagination!"

"At least dozens of hidden skills will be added to the territory!"

"Although these hidden skills cannot be widely promoted through skill stones, players can learn them from designated NPCs through their own efforts and using skill cards obtained from tasks!"

"I'm sure!"

"It won't take long!"

"The skill system of our Scourge Army will become larger and more complex, and the comprehensive strength of the Scourge Army will be further improved. Not only can it adapt to more complex battle situations, but each outstanding soldier will also be highly personalized!"

"Third, it affects the game capacity!"

"As we all know, there seems to be a direct connection between the game quota of Gui Sanguo and the population of the territory!"

"This time we successfully captured Xinwan, and the population and territory have expanded unprecedentedly. I think it won't be long before the production team will release a new round of third-test player recruitment announcement!"

"The number of recruits this time!"

"It may be much beyond imagination!"

"This is worth the expectation of every prospective Scourge Army!"

"..."

The full text of this post is very long.

Although it is very general, it summarizes the significance of capturing Xinwan this time, especially since a new round of recruiting new soldiers is about to start in the prophecy territory, which makes the cloud players in the forum very excited.

"Tears!"

"Finally, a new round of recruitment has arrived!"

"The occupied territory is so large this time, at least tens of thousands of new soldiers must be recruited!"

"Tens of thousands? No way!"

"I don't think it's realistic either, can the server handle it!"

"There are less than 4,000 people in the Scourge Army now, and I think it would be good if it can double!"

"I hope I can win this time!"

"I am willing to exchange a place in the internal test for all the water friends in the forum to gain ten pounds!"

"..."

Hang Yu also saw this post while browsing the forum.

At this time, more than half of the residents in the Xinwan area have completed the loyalty ceremony, and the rest should be completed within tomorrow.

Only in this way can it be considered a complete occupation!

The matter of recruiting the Scourge Army should indeed be put on the agenda, after all, it has been a while since the last recruitment.

For Hang Yu,

The more Scourge troops, the better.

The more players and leeks, the more income.

However, as a lord or game planner, Hang Yu also needs to consider the pressure of expenditure and the current capacity of the territory.

There are currently only two maps suitable as birth points.

One is Luoshui City.

The other is Baihu City.

Although Xinwan City is also a main city-level city, its blessing point can complete cross-regional teleportation like Baihu City.

The problem is that the monster level in Xinwan area is too high.

There are no monsters to spawn in the Pure Land area of ​​this map, and the monsters in the polluted area are generally above level 2, so the entry level is as high as level 9, which is not suitable as a player landing location.

Luoshui main city is fine.

Baihu City is fine.

If these two cities are the center, the monsters within the activity radius of the new players are limited. If all 12,000 players are recruited, there is a high possibility that there will be more people than monsters.

In addition to the density problem affecting the game experience and upgrade efficiency.

The expenditure of recruiting 12,000 players at once is not a small number. Although it is not a big problem to tighten the belt, it will eventually affect the development and construction of other aspects.

Hang Yu thought again and again.

Finally, he chose a compromise plan.

Players must be recruited as soon as possible.

Although the 12,000 places will not be given to the Scourge Army, at least 11,500 players must be recruited, leaving only 500 places for the Canglong Guard.

As for the recruitment method, it needs to be changed.

Hang Yu does not plan to recruit all at once.

He plans to recruit in batches over ten days.

At this time, Hang Yu calculated the best data. With the current size, capacity, and monster spawning speed of the territory, the pressure of one thousand players arriving every day can be fully borne.

When the players arrive in the next few days, the players who arrived before must have been upgraded several levels, so they have the ability to teleport to other blessing points to spawn monsters.

In this way.

It greatly alleviates the congestion problem.

It also relieves the financial pressure of the territory.

Players can get a better gaming experience.

Hang Yu no longer hesitated, and completed the game announcement and posted it on the official website homepage as soon as possible.

I don’t know how many people are refreshing the homepage at this moment.

The announcement was disclosed in less than a minute.

It was transferred to the forum.

"Great news!"

"The announcement is out!"

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!"

"This time, 11,500 players will be given out!"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"I told you to quit masturbation, but you didn't listen. Now you're hallucinating because you masturbated too much!"

"That's right!"

"I just finished reading it!"

"That's right! It's true!"

"Oh my god, I even suspected that I had added an extra zero. I read it carefully several times before I was sure!"

"Long live the official dad!"

"The winning rate is much higher now!"

"..."

Hang Yu didn't even need to look to know that the forum must be boiling. The number of natural disaster troops recruited this time is unprecedented.

After this unit landed in the territory.

The power and strength of the natural disaster army will be unprecedentedly expanded!

Although there is a long way to go from recruits to mature leeks, the seeds have been sown. Are you afraid that there will be no harvest in the future?

It won't take long.

The territory's spiritual energy income will explode!

Hang Yu was just about to continue reading the posts and discussions in the forum.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, he suddenly felt something in his heart.

"Something is happening!"

"It's on Woniu Mountain!"

Hang Yu's face changed slightly. It has been about twenty hours since the unknown star lord descended on Woniu Mountain, and the other party has been keeping a low profile.

Even so.

Hang Yu did not dare to be careless at all.

Star forces are sometimes more dangerous than abyss forces, especially when the race and background are unknown.

Hang Yu adheres to the principle of not moving if the enemy does not move and I do not move to maintain a defensive posture.

At this moment, the situation in Xinwan is gradually stabilizing, and Jiuwan will not erupt in the short term. In this way, it is time to withdraw energy and fully deal with this invader.

(PS: Ask for recommendation votes and monthly tickets on Monday!)
