Jingjiang Xu Mansion, Library Pavilion.
Xu Yuan sat by the window and quietly browsed the Grade C internal reference that Ying'er had just sent to him personally.
The communication with the old aunt Lou Ji two days ago made Xu Yuan know that the internal reference in his family was also hierarchical.
A very strict grading system.
A, B, C, D, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Rengui are ranked from top to bottom.
What kind of status, strength, and what kind of contribution can be viewed at what level are clearly broken down by the internal reference.
Complete information about the war in the north belongs to Class IIIC,
Because of the ridiculous things he had done before, even Lou Ji couldn't tell him directly and needed to ask his father.
after all,
If he takes it out and buys it again, it will be great fun.
It took two days to deliver it. I guess his father must have agreed to this.
The sun was shining just right, and a gentle breeze was blowing between the rise and fall of birds and geese.
Xu Yuan has liked this feeling since his previous life.
A cup of tea, a book, and an afternoon.
Leisurely and comfortable.
But as he continued to browse the internal reference, Xu Yuan found that he could no longer relax.
Barbarians.......
Xu Yuan rubbed his eyebrows.
There is a world line in Cangyuan. The final BOSS that players need to face is the barbarians who have been defeated all the way from the north. However, the plot does not mention the current war at all.
Now that I look at it, it's really a bit too bad.
Seven years ago, when Marquis Wu Cheng was still guarding the northern border, the barbarians outside the border fortress were beaten so hard that they could not even raise their heads. However, since Marquis Wu Cheng, the Dinghai Shenzhen, was recalled to the Imperial Capital for some reasons seven years ago, the situation has changed. It took a turn for the worse.
Generally speaking, it is the internal fighting that causes trouble, causing the self-respect of the bandits to be lost.
The relationship within the Dayan Border Army is very complicated.
Due to the laws set by the founder of the dynasty and the various sects, there was a price for each sect not to pay taxes.
In terms of local governance, they need to unconditionally assist the court in ensuring the safety of the people.
In terms of the armament system, the sect needs to send a part of its disciples every year to be dispersed and reorganized into the armies of the Dayan Dynasty to accept dispatch, and so on.
The original intention was good, and these laws indeed played a very positive role when the imperial power was strong. However, as the evolution of thousands of years and the rise and fall of the imperial power, these laws gradually changed.
There are many frontier troops on the mountain. The imperial court and the sects, the sects and the sects, the sects and the big families basically blame each other when fighting.
The most typical one is the current northern border.
As Marquis Wu Cheng was transferred back to the Imperial Capital, there was no Wolf Mie in the north who could dominate all parties, and the mountains of all parties were like a plate of loose sand.
It is normal for the friendly troops in the first ten miles to fight alone and fight bloody battles, and for the ten miles behind us to watch the battle.
Now Hanbeicheng has not been defeated entirely because the Great Yan Dynasty's family wealth is too strong. Even so, the barbarians on the opposite side can only encroach on it due to internal fighting.
This point is similar to what Xu Yuan knew in his previous life.
Dayan is worthy of the name of the dynasty.
Whether it was the ancient abyss in the southwest, the barbarians in the north, or the desert in the northwest, they basically waited until several major forces within the Great Yan Dynasty got their heads over them before they dared to enter the field to pick peaches.
Then he was defeated by the protagonist of the plot controlled by Xu Yuan as the final BOSS.
After gathering his thoughts, apart from the breeze, there was only the sound of rustling pages turning in the room.
suddenly,
Xu Yuan's eyes flashed with surprise, and his fingers that turned the pages paused slightly.
etc,
Isn’t this barbarian human?
Xu Yuan saw an illustration on top of the internal reference sent by Lou Ji.
It's not a photo, but the pen and ink are extremely concise and realistic, depicting a scene of a battlefield.
On the broken city wall, there were corpses everywhere. There were soldiers in frontier uniforms, cultivators in sect costumes, and barbarians from the north.
And that barbarian doesn't look like a human being.
After two seconds of silence, Xu Yuan slowly stood up and went to the bookshelf to find a book.
A quarter of an hour later, Xu Yuan sat back by the window, holding a copy of "Records of the Northern Barbarians" with a relatively new title page in his hand.
After a cursory glance, Xu Yuan had a strange expression.
Barbarians were not a scornful term used by the Dayan Dynasty for the nomadic people outside the Great Wall.
Barbarians are barbarians.
Although it is also humanoid, it is more similar to a green-skinned or black-skinned humanoid creature.
He didn't know this in his previous life, or he didn't need to know.
He understands Gu Yuan because following Gu Yuan allows him to become a reckless hero or even a dragon knight.
And the Northern Barbarians don't have any shit, and they don't have a Paper Man wife, so why does he care about this?
The introduction is sparse, and even the important bosses are not drawn vertically. For a 2.5D pixel-style game, it is completely unrealistic to expect it to make the monster models more refined. Many of the material stickers are basically reused with different colors.
Xu Yuan always thought that these barbarians were just a group of stronger humans.
Only now did I realize that the other person was not a human being.
The average height of these adult barbarians is more than one foot. Born in a bitter cold land, their dark brown hard skin is difficult to penetrate with swords. There are sharp bone spurs on their fists and various important joints, as if they were born for fighting.
A sentient humanoid monster.
After knowing this, Xu Yuan was not in the mood to make a fuss.
Having seen both the Stone Buddha and the Seven Lives Python, he would not be too surprised by such a humanoid monster.
But I do understand why there are so many external forces, except the barbarians, who don’t have Paper Man wives.
too ugly.
After putting down the "Records of the Northern Barbarians", Xu Yuan continued to read the internal reference book attentively.
Browsing to the end of the internal reference is the battle report of the northern border in the past week.
As of the day before yesterday.
After more than a month of fierce fighting, Princess Wu Yuan finally relieved the siege of Hanbei City.
Of course, to be able to successfully rescue the siege, the 30,000 imperial guards brought by the princess alone were not enough. More of them were the result of compromises between various local forces.
Having said that, the process described in the internal reference gave Xu Yuan a lot of insights.
What the hell,
It turns out that there are really people who will fight among themselves when the enemy is at war.
Before Princess Wu Yuan led her army to Hanbei City,
Those who were surrounded and killed by the barbarians on all sides of the mountains in Hanbei City actually still had the strength to fight the barbarians, and even had more hard power than them.
But instead of fighting, they just stayed in the city and fought within themselves.
No one wants to go first, everyone wants to preserve their strength.
Anyway, with the various formations on Hanbei City, it will be impossible for those barbarians to break in for a while.
And the news has been sent out, just wait for reinforcements from the court.
If reinforcements don't come, then we will have more military ration reserves than anyone else.
Your soldiers have to eat when your family runs out of rations, right?
Isn't it bad if you want to eat without doing anything?
As for mutiny in the city?
If you go outside to fight the barbarians, you still have a chance to survive. If you mutiny when there is a large formation in the city, you will be waiting for death, and you can also kill the nine tribes.
This situation was not completely resolved until Princess Wu Yuan led the Royal Forest Army to arrive.
The former Ninth Princess was a hostage sent by the royal family to the Wuchenghou Mansion in the north.
But because Marquis Wu Cheng was a loyal royalist, the treatment of the ninth princess was better than that of the princes in the Marquis' mansion.
The Ninth Princess showed interest when she was a child, and Wu Chenghou always took her with him when he went out to fight, and even asked her to lead the army himself when she grew up.
He was brought up by Wu Chenghou in the army.
After accumulating like this little by little, Princess Wu Yuan gained a high prestige in the military.
certainly,
The main reason why these old men were so cooperative was because the first thing this crazy woman did after entering the city was to convene a meeting to behead everyone.
Those who neglect their duties until the war situation deteriorates should be executed.
As soon as he finished speaking, a third-grade grandmaster and seven or eight fourth-grade body-melting lieutenants were directly bombarded into a pulp in the palace hall.
Use the large formation in the city.
The royal bloodline has always been the first priority in the formation control of various big cities under normal circumstances.
In this way, under the coordination of Princess Wu Yuan, the siege of Hanbei City was lifted, and the lost territory has now begun to be gradually recovered.
Although they are not necessarily united, they can still be considered as a concerted effort.
