When Zhao Haiping rushed back again, he found that the golden soldiers did not charge forward again.
Because they are timid!
Hesitation and fear can clearly be seen on the faces of these golden soldiers.
Obviously, they were frightened by Zhao Haiping's battle!
At this time, there was actually no large-scale confrontation between the two sides. Zhao Haiping only rushed into the enemy formation and provoked a few young generals. However, the Jin's cavalry unit actually did not suffer any major attrition.
In fact, Wang Fang and the hundred-man cavalry team had not actually started fighting with the Jin soldiers, they just pressed forward.
But this put great pressure on these Jin cavalry!
Immediately afterwards, Wang Fang and others saw an incredible scene.
These arrogant Jin cavalry actually withdrew!
At first, there were just a few Jin soldiers who wanted to retreat, but were stopped by the generals among them. But soon, the remaining generals discussed it urgently, and finally made up their minds and fled.
Of course, Zhao Haiping did not continue to pursue him. After all, he also knew that there were no reinforcements from the Qi Dynasty nearby. It may seem enthusiastic to rush over at this time, but if you really bump into the Jin's follow-up troops, you will be fooled instead of pretending to be cool.
So, Zhao Haiping pretended to pursue him, then turned back and returned to the team.
"Brother Zhao, you...you are so awesome! How did you do this?
"Without even a single soldier, these golden men were able to get wind of it and run away!"
Wang Fang obviously still had difficulty understanding what was happening in front of him.
The scene of Zhao Haiping chasing more than two hundred Jin soldiers on horseback left a deep impression on him.
At this moment, in the eyes of these Qi Dynasty soldiers, Zhao Haiping's back was like a god descending from heaven.
What makes Wang Fang very confused is that even if Zhao Haiping provokes a few Jin soldiers, it won't cause such a heavy blow to the morale of the Jin soldiers, right?
The golden soldiers at this time were extremely fierce and could not be frightened by an enemy.
Therefore, when Wang Fang led his men to charge forward, he was already prepared for a fierce battle, but he didn't expect that it would end much simpler than he imagined.
Zhao Haiping explained: “When we meet on a narrow road, the brave one wins.
"We are worried that there is an ambush behind the Jin people, so why not the Jin people?"
Wang Fang suddenly realized: "That's it!"
Obviously, several of the Jin soldiers that Zhao Haiping provoked were probably low-level officers with a small status. These grassroots officers actually maintain the grassroots command and operation of the entire army.
The loss of so many young generals at the beginning will inevitably make the Jin's cavalry poorly commanded and seriously affect their combat effectiveness.
It was through this opportunity that Zhao Haiping was able to accurately find the gaps among these cavalrymen and charge left and right, as if they were in an uninhabited land.
The more important reason is that the Jin people actually don't know the details of this Qi army.
As Zhao Haiping judged, this Jin soldiers were not the elite vanguard of a large force, but just a small force responsible for exploring and plundering nearby areas.
Since going south, the Jin people have been basically invincible when encountering the Qi Dynasty's troops, winning battle after battle with overwhelming momentum.
Many of the so-called elite troops of the Qi Dynasty simply fled.
This makes the Jin people more or less underestimate the enemy.
But this time, Zhao Haiping's heroic performance confused the Jin people. They could not figure out why there was such a fierce general in the Qi army.
The hundreds of cavalry who originally stood still but suddenly pressed forward midway, also felt a sense of oppression inexplicably, making these golden soldiers feel that these cavalry seemed to be extremely confident in their general, and seemed to be planning to catch them all in one fell swoop.
In short, the powerful combat power displayed by Zhao Haiping made the Jin people overestimate this cavalry, thinking that they were the vanguard of an elite force of the Qi Dynasty, so they did not dare to fight and retreated hastily.
Such a seemingly unsolvable deadlock was actually solved like this.
"Go and see if those golden soldiers are still alive and take them back to the military camp."
Zhao Haiping directed these people to tie one of the Jin soldiers, who was not particularly seriously injured, onto his horse and return to Pingding County.
…
At this time, Meng Yuan was in the Orderer space, observing the performance of these players.
There are countless trial illusions in front of him, and through the ability of the sequencer, a large amount of information can be quickly processed by the consultant and gathered into his consciousness, allowing him to grasp the situation of most players at the same time. .
In each trial fantasy, there are four different players.
According to the different routes selected by the players, they will be placed in the capital, Cenqiao Station, villages and Pingping Army.
These four people will have a new identity. Among them, the scribe in the capital has the highest official position, but this also means that as the censor Zhongcheng, he does not have too much freedom. Either he helps Li Boxi maintain the city defense, or he works with the civil servants in the palace. They argue.
The goal of the ranger is very simple, which is to integrate the green forest people and the villagers in the small village, and use their strength to repel this group of golden soldiers who want to burn, kill and loot in the small village, or to catch them all in one fell swoop and save as many people as possible. people.
As for the soldier players, their mission in the Pingding Army is to complete daily reconnaissance missions as much as possible, obtain promotions, and survive the final defense battle of the Pingding Army.
The goal of the assassin and scribe players is to have as much "positive impact" as possible on the entire trial fantasy world.
For example, if scribe players can really assist Li Boxi to play a huge role in city defense, or reduce the interference of peace-promoting officials in the court through impeachment, this can be considered a positive impact.
Assassin players do not necessarily have to assassinate Wan Yansheng. As long as they assassinate some low-level or mid-level officers of the Jin soldiers, it can be considered a positive impact.
Of course, assassinating the lower-level Jin soldiers has little impact, but it is easy to escape; assassinating the middle-level Jin soldiers and generals has a big impact, but most of them only have one chance.
How to choose depends on the players' own ideas.
Four players enter this trial fantasy in a randomly assigned manner. If a player fails midway, causing very serious consequences, other players will also be affected.
For example, Chu Ge failed to stop the emperor who fled in the middle of the night, causing the Jingping Incident to happen ahead of schedule. Even other players did not have time to play their part, and were overwhelmed by the vast number of golden soldiers.
If there were less serious consequences, such as the assassin player's failure to assassinate Wan Yansheng, it would not cause the entire trial illusion to collapse, but would only cause him to rematch with three other players.
The three players in the original trial illusion can continue to complete their goals.
In many trial illusions, players have a variety of choices.
Some assassin players had no intention of staying in Cenqiaoyi from the beginning. They felt that ambushing the golden soldiers here would be a dead end, so they simply ran to the capital to help defend the city. Anyway, they killed the golden soldiers in the same way when defending the city. In the chaos On the battlefield, it is easier to take advantage of assassination;
Some ranger players immediately changed their minds after finding out that they couldn't defeat them. They wanted to take these green forest people and the people in the village and escape to the mountains, and wanted to see if this would count;
Because the scribe players were in the capital, they played the most tricks. Some even tried to buy murderers and killed all the ministers of the Lord and the sect. However, because the conspiracy was exposed, they were sent on the spot...
Players also began to try various secret codes to determine each other's identities using code words that could only be understood by future generations, hoping to find absolutely trustworthy allies in advance during the upcoming Jingping Incident.
But so far, although the best players are gradually completing enough "positive impacts" and gradually conquering the first stage of the plot, no player has really been able to do anything cool. To avoid the Jingkang Incident.
The consultant said: "Didn't you originally plan to allow players to freely change this historical slice? Now it seems that such a goal has not been achieved at all."
Meng Yuan shook his head slightly: "Of course we want them to let go and change this historical slice, but the time has not yet come.
“Because they don’t have enough anger and motivation to transform this slice of history, and the power they have is not enough.
“That’s why I asked them to clear the first stage before they can unlock subsequent content.
"Based on the current situation, it should be soon. On the first night, many players should be able to pass the first stage of the trial..."
…
Countless trial illusions are constantly running in the space of the Orderer.
Some trial illusions have ended in a short period of time, and the four players in them failed for one reason or another; there are also some trial illusions that can last for a long time, and the players in them may be far away from clearing the first stage. , just one step away.
After the player fails and decides to enter a new trial illusion, a new trial illusion will be generated in the sequencer space, and three other players who also want to start over will be matched with him.
Since there are so many players in Darksand, and since the Orderer's power can actually warp time, this matchup can be made unnoticeable to players.
With the unremitting efforts of the players, the first phase of the game content has finally begun to come to an end.
…
Cenqiao Yizhong.
The Jin soldiers' siege was still the same as usual and did not last too long.
Several Jin soldiers held their butcher knives high and rushed into the depths of Cenqiaoyi with excitement on their faces.
Of course they knew that there might still be resistance here, but as the Jin troops passed through, these resistances were meaningless.
What's more, the Qi soldiers along the way were all on the verge of collapse, so these Jin soldiers had already completely ignored any resistance.
After all, even if a few golden soldiers rush forward, they can scare the Qi army of hundreds of people into fleeing.
That being the case, what else is there to be afraid of?
Therefore, these golden soldiers unknowingly relaxed their vigilance and just wanted to rush in as quickly as possible. After all, the further forward they rushed, the more likely they were to plunder gold and silver and torture women and children. There was nothing left but ruins, and nothing could be found.
With a "bang", the closed door was kicked open, and Jin Bing broke in with a sharp knife. Immediately afterwards, frightened screams, angry curses, and maybe a few pleas came from the house, but With the sound of the blade scratching and blood splattering on the wall, everything fell into silence.
And these golden soldiers obviously enjoyed this moment.
A tall and strong Jin soldier looked at the wound on his left arm indifferently. It was stabbed by a Qi Dynasty defender when he climbed onto the low city wall of Cenqiaoyi.
But he did not rest because of this minor injury, but continued to rush in. His desire for gold, silver and women had made him feel no pain at all.
Arriving at a spacious mansion, the golden soldier realized that maybe this was the big fat sheep he had been waiting for.
What surprised him even more was that after killing and looting, he actually saw a corner of bright clothes in the woodpile of the woodshed.
"Come out!"
Jin Bing brandished a sharp knife with his right hand, and violently opened the pile of firewood with his left hand.
Then, he saw a woman hiding in the firewood pile whose face was covered with pot ashes and had deliberately smeared herself to look ugly.
It's a pity that this kind of self-vilification doesn't make much sense after all, because Jin Bing can still tell from her face shape and clothes that she is probably a naturally beautiful lady.
A proud smile appeared on Jin Bing's face. From his point of view, it seemed that he was going to return home with a full harvest this time.
The long knife was placed on the woman's neck. Jin Bing watched triumphantly as she trembled like chaff, and then everything seemed to be logical. He took her to a nearby wing and prepared to torture her wantonly.
The Jin soldiers did not put away their swords, nor did they lower their vigilance. After all, other Jin soldiers had not entered the city in large numbers at this time, and there might be resistance in the city at any time.
So even at this time, Jin Bing's right hand was still holding the long knife tightly.
After the two arrived at the wing, the woman in front of them faced Jin Bing's pressing steps. As if she had accepted her fate, she was forced to lean forward a little. Then, her left elbow naturally fell on Jin Bing's. On the right hand holding the knife.
The next second, Jin Bing suddenly saw murderous intent on this woman's face!
Xia Ruoling suddenly ran into Jin Bing's arms, pressed his chest with her left shoulder, and suppressed his right hand with the elbow of her left hand so that the long knife in his hand could not be cut. Then his right hand lowered, originally The dagger hidden in his sleeve suddenly slipped down and was held in his palm.
Then, Xia Ruoling's right hand thrust out like lightning, accurately passing through the gaps in the armor and ribs on Jin Bing's chest, and instantly pierced his heart!
"Ding-deng-deng!"
Jin Bing was knocked back several steps by this sudden huge force. He seemed to have no idea why this lady-like woman in front of him could suddenly burst out with such terrifying power.
He was still trying hard to resist, but after hitting the wall, he felt the dagger twisting hard on his chest, instantly taking away all his strength.
He wanted to shout, but at some point, Xia Ruoling's left hand had covered his mouth, preventing him from making any sound.
After a short time, Xia Ruoling pushed Jin Bing's body gently, then pulled out the dagger to avoid the direction of the blood spurting.
Then, she turned to look at Cenqiao Station, where beacon smoke was already burning, turned around and blended in with the refugees, and continued to the next ambush location.
…
The streets of the capital.
Li Hongyun carried his bow and came to the door of the largest restaurant in the capital.
"No matter what, let's have a good meal first!"
This is already Li Hongyun's seventh life.
Before, he had been trying to fight to the death at Cenqiaoyi, but he died miserably every time.
Not to mention killing Wan Yan Sheng, even killing a low-level officer is not easy!
This was the first time that Li Hongyun regretted his identity as an assassin.
After all, he is a skilled assassin, unlike top assassins like Xia Ruoling who have such profound accumulation in disguise, concealment, layout, etc.
Moreover, he used long-range weapons, not short weapons.
This means that the success rate of assassinating one person may be very high, but it will not work at all when encountering consecutive assassinations.
So, after repeatedly hitting the wall, Li Hongyun finally decided not to give in. He ran out of Cenqiaoyi and came to the capital before the city was closed.
He pondered that his style of play was really not suitable for fighting alone.
After all, there are no advanced flintlock guns in this world.
Perhaps he can play his greatest role in the battle to defend the capital. All the enemy kills at that time should also count, right?
Arriving at the door of the restaurant, Li Hongyun was about to step in when he suddenly felt a sudden movement and found that there was a signboard with a few lines of words on the signboard at the door.
During the Qi Dynasty, the commercial economy and brothel culture were very developed.
Every year and festival, students from all over the country hold cultural gatherings. And if there are any good words at the literary meeting, someone will spread the word throughout the city that night.
These restaurants and brothels will display the students' excellent lyrics at the door for people to praise them.
And those courtesans in brothels will immediately sing these words according to the word cards, which has a feeling of modern pop songs.
But at this time, what was placed at the door of the restaurant was not a poem, but a couplet.
"Smoke Lock Pond Willow!"
Moreover, it is clearly written next to the first couplet that any person with lofty ideals who can respond to this couplet and has the ambition to fight against the Jin Dynasty may directly meet with the current third-grade official and Yushi Zhongcheng to discuss the plan to fight against the Jin Dynasty. You may be recommended to get an official position because of this.
Li Hongyun looked suspicious at first, but then he suddenly realized.
He seemed to have thought of something, and quickly came to the restaurant, called the waiter, and asked about the couplet.
The waiter immediately respectfully asked Li Hongyun aside and presented him with pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
According to the waiter in the store, the censor Zhongcheng requested that the hotel provide pens, ink, paper and inkstones for anyone who came to write the second couplet, write the title and signature, and then wait in the restaurant. Moreover, they were not allowed to peek at the written second line, and they had to send it to the censor Zhongcheng’s house immediately.
Li Hongyun couldn't help but feel more sure. After the waiter turned around, he picked up the brush, splashed ink, and wrote five words in a crooked font that looked like chicken claws.
Rust is blocking the range hood!
Then, he left his name, waited for the ink on the paper to dry, folded it, put it in an envelope, and handed it to the waiter.
Not long after, a carriage stopped at the door of the restaurant and took Li Hongyun to the residence of the Censor Zhongcheng.
It has to be said that Yushi Zhongcheng is a third-grade official after all. This mansion is quite grand, which also makes Li Hongyun regret a little: he should have chosen to be a scribe to start the trial!
If this idea is known to other assassin players, they will definitely sneer at them: traitors of assassin players!
Li Hongyun would retort: I originally wanted to be a scribe, but I changed my career halfway!
Not long after, the censor Zhongcheng came quickly.
A green forest man and a court official, two people who seemed completely incompatible with each other and whose status gap was very different, actually stepped forward and held each other's hands tightly.
"Brother, I've finally waited for you!"
Li Hongyun had tears in his eyes. Ever since he entered this trial illusion, he, a poor Green Forester with an identity as an assassin, had had enough of the Jin people's bullying.
At Cenqiaoyi, I had no friends and received lunch boxes countless times. The tragic scene of being killed by Jin soldiers every time is still vivid in his mind.
And this time, I finally found other players!
Li Hongyun asked: "I am Li Hongyun, what is your name?"
I saw a strange look on the face of the censor Zhongcheng: "I...I am Chu Ge..."
Both of them looked a little embarrassed. They looked at each other carefully, and then they realized that they could actually see each other's shadow in each other's eyebrows.
In this trial illusion, the players' original appearance has been deeply made up. It is not obvious at first glance, but if you look closely, you can see it.
Li Hongyun was very angry: "I said where is my good luck! How come I haven't met Wan Yansheng even once! It turns out that I used it all to match you!"
…
With a "swish" sound, Huo Yunying shook off the blood on the sword.
Several other golden soldiers got on their horses in panic and ran away.
Huo Yunying wanted to eradicate the enemy, but after all, the horses of these golden men were much faster than the horses of green forest men. Even if they could chase down one or two people, the outcome would not be fundamentally different.
Looking at the green forest people, the eyes they looked at him were almost like worshiping gods.
"Iron ropes control mountains and rivers" Yuan Zhiyong looked at Huo Yunying with respectful eyes: "Mr. Duan, what should we do next?"
At this time, these green forest people and the gathered people were completely following Huo Yunying's lead.
Because his previous performances really shocked these people.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with describing it as "a complete strategy".
Huo Yunying sighed silently in her heart, I don't want to portray myself as someone who knows everything and has superb martial arts skills, but it's impossible not to do this!
How do you know how many times I was tortured by the golden man!
At the beginning, Huo Yunying's plan was perfect but the execution was sparse, so he had to change his tactics again and again.
Based on the time, direction, approximate number of Jin people entering the small village, and various details during the period, Huo Yunying changed the battle plan again and again, trying to maximize the combat effectiveness of these Green Forest people and avoid them as much as possible in the plan. His recklessness brought too many variables to the battle plan.
In short, after trying various methods, the entire village was finally saved with many people injured and no one killed.
But even so, this is not the end.
Huo Yunying originally thought that the field of vision would be filled with white mist at this time, and it would directly enter the second stage, but unfortunately it did not.
This also means that he has to continue to struggle here.
“Why didn’t we enter the second phase?
"Is it because those golden soldiers escaped?
"Save people to the end, send Buddha to the west... If it ends now, more golden soldiers will definitely come to take revenge soon. By then, this small village will still be unable to escape the fate of being massacred..."
After thinking about it for a while, Huo Yunying roughly figured out the current situation.
So, he looked at Green Forest and the villagers: "Everyone pack up quickly and only bring gold, silver, clothing and food.
"Let's go into the mountains!"
…
On the low city wall of Pingding County, Zhao Haiping looked into the distance.
Dark clouds over the city.
The forward scouts of the Jin soldiers have arrived at the foot of Pingding County, and further away, many Jin soldiers are setting up camp.
After carrying out several sentinel missions, the situation on the battlefield began to take a turn for the worse.
The biggest bad news came: Taiyuan fell.
Sure enough, after a short rest, Jin Bing's West Route Army began to further sweep the prefectures and counties around Taiyuan, as well as the entire Hedong Road.
The Pingding Army was stationed on the only road from Taiyuan City to the capital, so it naturally became an inevitable target for the Jin people.
Although the terrain here is dangerous, the city is not large and the population is not large. The entire Pingding Army only has about three thousand people.
Zhao Haiping looked at the golden soldiers pressing in from the distance like black clouds, and sighed silently: "If I can survive this battle...can I pass the first stage?"
