"Damn it, is Lu Yang really here?" Steiger asked with a frown.
The adjutant beside him asked: "Boss, there are reports from everywhere that Liu Jie's African Legion is retreating across the board. It seems that Lu Yang may arrive. Should we defend the Chief's Fortress?"
Steiger pondered for a long time. He opened a special space and called Ptolemy, Gaddafi and Renault together.
"What do you think?" Steiger asked.
Renault said: "We must defend. We cannot let Lu Yang occupy the Chief's Fortress. In that case, we will be in trouble in the future."
"My opinion is also defensive," Steiger said.
Ptolemy glanced at the two men mockingly and said angrily: "Before talking about defense, should we discuss my losses?"
According to the previous contract, the battle losses of all guilds in the Gods Cavalry Regiment were shared equally among the four. Ptolemy suffered heavy losses in this battle. She was full of disappointment and anger towards Steiger and Renault.
Steiger understood Ptolemy's anger and said: "Don't worry, I said I would share your losses equally, and I will definitely share them equally. I believe the same will be true for the other two."
"Me too," Reno said.
"Me too," Gaddafi said.
Ptolemy's face softened a little and he said, "Don't rush to agree. You know, I lost hundreds of millions of dollars in this war. This is not a small number. You have to think about it."
Steiger, Renault, and Gaddafi all had serious expressions on their faces, but the three of them still nodded together.
"Don't worry, I will not only help you share the losses, but after this time, Renault and I will vigorously help you and Gaddafi train their men. In the next war, Liu Jie will definitely lose." Steiger said.
Renault nodded and said, "Exactly."
Ptolemy looked at Steiger and Renault in surprise. She thought that today was the day that she would quit the Cavalry of the Gods. They would never agree to such a huge loss, and Gadaffi would not do this even if he was rich. It was a random offer, but all three of them actually agreed, especially Steiger and Renault, who didn't have much money. They also agreed.
"Thank you." Ptolemy said to the three of them seriously.
Steiger smiled and said: "We are a group, this is what we should do, now let's discuss whether the Chiefs Fortress should be defended."
Renault said: "My suggestion is to give it to Lu Yang. Lu Yang and Liu Jie have a grudge. When the situation in the south cannot be opened, the target will definitely turn to Liu Jie. We can use Lu Yang's hatred for Liu Jie to fight with Liu Jie. He cooperates.”
Gaddafi shook his head and said: "I don't recommend this. If Lu Yang occupies the Chief's Fortress, both sides are the strongest guilds. I suspect that both sides will eliminate us first before the war begins, lest we collude with each other. Trick.”
The Gods Cavalry Regiment has suffered a new defeat, and the players in North Africa and Saudi Arabia have very poor large-scale combat capabilities. Once Lu Yang captures the Emirate’s Fortress, facing the outflanking of two powerful guilds, Lu Yang and Liu Jie, the Gods Cavalry Regiment may be defeated. Great sex.
Steiger, Renault, and Ptolemy couldn't help but think about it. After a long time, their eyes gradually became firm.
"Then just defend the Chief's Fortress and don't let Lu Yang in unless it's absolutely necessary." Steiger said.
In just 3 minutes, hundreds of thousands of rays of light lit up over the Chief's Fortress. At this time, Lu Yang was discussing the attack with Zhuojiu.
"The boss enemy's reinforcements have arrived." Vulcan M16 reported.
Lu Yang looked at the light from the fortress in the distance opposite him, sighed and said, "Liu Jie and the dead grass have grown, and they are becoming more and more difficult to deal with."
Zhuojiu said unwillingly: "The Gods Cavalry Regiment is not very powerful right now. If we attack hard, we will definitely be able to capture the Chief's Fortress in two days at most."
Lu Yang shook his head and said: "It's not appropriate. Let the Gods Cavalry continue to guard the Chief's Fortress. Let's stop the attack and take a rest. You can call the other vice presidents for me."
Zhuojiu wanted to say more, but he lowered his head and responded, taking out his phone to notify everyone one by one.
Rays of light flashed, and Bai Shi, Zhou Tianming, Tianyao and others appeared in the teleportation formation of the City Lord's Mansion in Tianjian Fortress.
Lu Yang returned to the conference room of the City Lord's Mansion. 34 people had gathered. When they saw Lu Yang coming, they all stood up and bowed, saying respectfully: "Boss."
Lu Yang motioned for them all to sit down and said: "Everyone performed very well in this war. We achieved a phased victory against the Group of Eight and captured 11 of their main cities. Everyone has contributed. I will Rewards based on merit."
Bai Shi, Xia Yuwei and other vice presidents all showed happy expressions, but everyone still had unwilling expressions on their faces.
"Boss, are we really not going to fight anymore? How about trying to capture the Chief's Fortress?" asked the Lovely Queen.
"Yes, once we fight, we can compete head-on with Liu Jie." Lijiu Qingfeng said.
Tu Feng said: "Boss, Liu Jie and Suan Si Cao analyzed us very thoroughly about this matter. I just studied Liu Jie's tactics this time, and they fought very beautifully, even better than our battle." , I suggest that our end point for the next battle needs to be transferred to Liu Jie, his African Legion has grown too fast."
It is not difficult to do some detours and attack the weak points of the opponent with some. The difficulty is that the party responsible for the detours has to make detours with one of the two strongest armies in the world, Germany's Steiger and France's Renault. However, Yue Taishan can't. The two people who were restrained could not move at a very low loss. Even if they were dissatisfied, they could not help but admire Ruyue Taishan's beautiful fight.
"This Ruyue Taishan seems to have grown up. I really want to compete with him." Kuai Bansheng said eagerly.
Zhuojiu, Tianyao and others all showed excited eyes. Obviously, everyone wanted to attack the Chief's Fortress.
Lu Yang smiled, spread his hands, and said: "We can't fight for the time being. If we want to launch a war against the Chief's Fortress, we are likely to fall into a quagmire. Too much money will be spent, and the Iron-Blooded Brothers may not be able to afford it."
Xia Yuwei asked in surprise: "Boss, how much did we spend on this war?"
Lu Yang smiled and said, "Guess."
"How many hundreds of millions?" Kuai Bansheng asked.
"No more than 600 million at most." said the cute queen.
Lu Yang said with a smile: "So far, a total of 1.9 billion has been spent. Subsequent players' war compensation fees and guild point exchange costs will be at least another 1 billion."
Tianyao: "..."
White Lion: "..."
Xia Yuwei: "..."
…
All the vice-presidents were shocked. It took 2.9 billion to capture 11 fortresses. They knew that in normal wars, the maximum cost of a battle was only 300 million.
"Why is it so expensive?" Kuai Bansheng asked, blinking.
Lu Yang said: "Unexpectedly, this is the cost of fighting a war with tens of millions of people head-on. This is the cost of a head-on battle with a top guild like the Group of Eight. We are pretty good, but the Group of Eight spends more."
Different from the previous Tianlong, Corim and others, this time facing the Group of Eight, every battle fought by the Iron-Blooded Brothers is a head-on battle, a head-on battle with the opponent. Being able to win is already Lu Yang's crossing The advantage played a huge role. If both sides had the same equipment, not to mention whether the two sides could determine the outcome, I am afraid that both sides would be overwhelmed by the war funds before the outcome was determined.
The reason why Lu Yang dared to conclude that the Group of Eight did not dare to fight again was because their guild funds were also in crisis.
"You don't know that the average number of deaths per player in this war is more than 30 times. Many people have lost more than 3 levels. The real cost is every time they die." General Tu Feng is currently The collected data is projected onto the desktop.
In launching a war involving tens of millions of people, the real money spent is cooking, mixtures, status scrolls, and potions. These four most inconspicuous things are the most expensive things in each war.
Once you die, these four buffs will disappear. If you want to have these four things again, you need to use them again.
The unit prices of these four items are not expensive. A set of 30 pieces of level 140 dark gold cooking costs only 3 yuan for 1 silver coin. But the real-time statistics from Tu Feng made Lu Yang look at it. Feeling distressed.
In these two week-long battles involving tens of millions of people, the Iron-Blooded Brothers spent more than 3 billion sets of cooking. In other words, on cooking alone, the Iron-Blooded Brothers spent 900 million credits.
The price of a bottle of the mixture is 30 copper coins, and the Iron-Blooded Brotherhood spent more than 2 billion bottles, as well as potions and scrolls...
Zhou Tianming sighed and said: "Fortunately, the boss is the head of the family. For another person, even if he had the courage, he wouldn't have so much money to spend on fighting."
Zhou Tianming originally thought that if he founded the guild alone, it might not be stronger than Lu Yang, but it wouldn't be much worse. But today when he saw that the cost of the war had reached such an extent, he knew that he would definitely lose. .
Tianyao and Liangyun thought the same way. The cost of a war in a game has become so huge that neither of them can afford it, nor can they imagine it based on their understanding of the game.
"Boss, then we have no money." Kuai Bansheng said.
Lu Yang said: "This is not necessarily the case. The guild's cash flow is currently about 3 billion. According to the fortress income in the game, it can support us to fight another war of this level. However, within this year, the Group of Eight will not They are thinking of starting a war with us, and they can’t afford it anymore.”
Everyone laughed. They originally thought that the guild's cash flow was sufficient, but now they heard that the remaining money could only be used to fight one war, which made them feel upset.
"Boss, what should we do next? Although we occupy 11 fortresses in the Group of Eight, there are almost no people in these fortresses, which cannot bring us any income. On the contrary, defending these fortresses requires a lot of investment." Zhou Tianming said.
Lu Yang said: "You don't understand. Until now, you haven't figured out why I, boss, am so eager to expand."
Everyone couldn't help but look at Lu Yang with wide eyes. If the previous elimination of Park Renyi and Tianlong was to have a good living space, then rushing out of this area to attack Yip Dengtian and the Eight-Nation Group was completely militaristic and incomprehensible. They wanted to ask about Lu Yang's methods before, but didn't dare to ask.
"Boss, what's the reason?" the cute queen asked curiously.
Lu Yang smiled and said nothing. He looked at the time. The time was fixed at 2 o'clock in the morning. At the US headquarters, the current time was exactly 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
[System Announcement]: Global announcement, starting from tomorrow, the server will open a new expansion pack - "Second Home", and the global service will be suspended for one day.
…
Three consecutive announcements filled the screen with golden fonts on the channel interface. For a moment, Baishi, Zhuojiu and others all turned their attention to this announcement.
"There is a new expansion pack, and the official update speed is quite fast."
"Okay, there are only the last two hours before the server is shut down, and there is nothing we can do."
…
Everyone started talking.
Lu Yang said: "The last two hours are very critical. We order all players of the Iron-Blooded Brotherhood to enter the fortress we own and stay on standby to avoid any accidents."
Many unscrupulous players and guilds may take advantage of the big guild's slack to sneak attack on the fortress and then gain benefits. Once they succeed in the sneak attack, the big guild will suffer huge losses. These are the lessons learned from the previous life.
"Yes." Zhuojiu and the others immediately ordered.
The hundreds of fortresses in the Iron-Blooded Brotherhood were constantly flashing with light. Tens of millions of Iron-Blooded Brotherhood players entered the fortresses controlled by the major vice-presidents to garrison in an orderly manner.
"Wow haha, brother, we meet again. Thank you for blocking the battle just now. Otherwise, I would have fallen to level 139 now. Thank you very much."
"Haha, of course, they are all from the same guild."
"Add a friend, add a friend, and we'll level up together in the future. I'm the Ice Archmage. I'll be here whenever you call."
"Awesome, the boss's personal guard."
…
Tens of millions of players gathered in small groups in various fortresses to chat. This time, they did not need to defend the fortress or stand guard according to the guild rules. They just squatted or sat in one place. Laughing and chatting.
Under night.
The brothers who had won the war shared their experiences of the war. Even though it was already late at night, no one said they were going to sleep, because they were the most awesome players of the Iron-Blooded Brotherhood who had won every battle.
Among the many players, an orc player was sitting comfortably on the wall, leaning against the tower behind. From here, he could not only watch the situation outside the city, but also enjoy the magnificent scenery in the game.
The bright moon sets, the dark night gradually turns white, and the dark earth gradually becomes light. The mountains, rivers, and wild beasts in the distance form the magnificent scenery in the game.
In that time of black and white, the orc player suppressed his excitement and called in a low voice: "Brother, I didn't live up to your expectations in this battle. It was a beautiful fight."
On the other end of the phone, a man sitting on the toilet toilet glanced at the darkness in the room, suppressed his voice, and said excitedly: "Well done, you didn't embarrass our army. I saw you right, haha. What a beautiful fight.”
When the orc player heard this voice, he should have been happy and jumped up and shouted excitedly, but now he felt like crying for no reason.
"Brother, but you are no longer around, I can't even bring myself to feel happy." The orc player said.
"Hey, what's the matter? If you are here, our legion will still be there and will never disappear. This proves that we have played this game together and really fought hard together." The man looked like you had everything he needed.
He continued: "You shouldn't be sad, brother. I feel that you have become more prosperous this time. Our boss has personally opened the way for you and protected your two wings. Now that the war is over, I bet that you will be able to join the war studio." , Boss Lu Yang will not treat you badly."
The orc player grinned, but his lips trembled very much, and said: "Who knows, it is said that the boss of such a big guild cannot care about the players below. Even if I have high merit, I may be given to a big cannon fodder." It’s also possible that the regiment’s commander entered the war studio, but I never thought about it.”
The man smiled and reassured: "Don't think so much, there will probably be news in the next few days. I believe you will succeed."
"Husband, aren't you done yet?" A woman's voice came from the house.
"Hey, it's out. It's out." The man said quickly. He covered his mouth and said on the phone: "We can't talk anymore. I'll call you tomorrow."
"Oh, tracheitis," the orc player said.
"I love my wife." The man hung up the phone unwillingly.
The orc player looked at the analog communication device at the hang point and smiled, put away the phone and continued to stare at the scenery outside the city in a daze.
The person sitting on the tower was none other than Liu Ruohuai, the leader of the cannon fodder regiment who had made a brilliant appearance in the Twilight Hills during the war against the Group of Eight. After the war, he immediately called his eldest brother from the original regiment.
But it's 2 o'clock in the morning. The man's wife and daughter are all asleep. His daughter has to go to school tomorrow morning, his wife has to go to work, and he has to go to work. And his wife has to cook and pack clothes and schoolbags for the children early tomorrow morning. …
"Time, why do you go so fast? Can't you give us more time." Liu Ruohuai said sadly.
Now, he didn't even have anyone to chat with. All the brothers who were in the cannon fodder regiment like him were now calling their brothers from the original legion. He ended the call first and could only sit quietly.
"Why are you sitting here alone?" Kuai Bansheng walked up to Liu Ruohuai's side at some point.
"Boss, why are you here?" Liu Ruohuai stood up quickly and blinked in surprise.
Kuai Bansheng smiled and said: "I just came over for inspection and I want to ask you something. If Boss Lu Yang invites me to join the war studio, will you agree?"
"What?" Liu Ruohuai's eyes widened in shock.
