Chapter 269 Main and Sub-professional
The pressure came to Wuwei City.
Dai Ze personally led the 9,000 vanguard troops to rush to Wuwei City. Today, there are less than 1,000 formal defenders in Wuwei City.
Including the civilian men recruited, only 5,000 people could climb the city wall.
Although the Tubo army did not have siege equipment, Wuwei City had not been repaired since Fang Guan took office, and the arrows and feathers in the arsenal were insufficient.
It can be said that both sides are evenly matched, 50-50.
For the people of Wuwei City, although Tubo did not launch large-scale battles in the Hexi direction in recent years, attacks on the Tubo people and plundering of the population still occurred frequently.
So when it comes to the Tibetan people, everyone is itchy.
Unlike the predatory nomads like the Uighurs, the Tubo targeted the Tang Dynasty population such as craftsmen and households.
It was also Datang's caravan that was attacked.
The craftsmen who were plundered back by the Tubo would be rewarded as slaves to the castle owners or manor owners. They were treated as consumables and kept making farm tools and weapons for the slave owners every day.
The price of a Han blacksmith is often much higher than that of other slaves. Even if a blacksmith cannot be found, ordinary Han slaves are much more expensive than Qiang slaves.
The Wuwei area was also often invaded by Tibetans, and people were often separated from each other.
So when I heard that Tubo was coming to attack Wuwei City, the people in the city knew very well that if they didn't take up arms to resist, after the city was defeated, everyone in the city would become slaves of Tubo.
The Hexi Jiedu Envoy Office issued an order and appointed Xue Hu, the marching commander of the Jiedu Envoy Office, to lead the army and civilians in the city to fight against the Tibetan army.
Although no one knew this Xue Hu, after accepting the appointment, Xue Hu immediately began to inspect the city walls to appease the people, and also set up a porridge shed in the center of the city to appease the refugees in the city.
At the same time, the nine thousand infantry led by Dai Ze were approaching Wuwei City.
The distance from the Chishui Army Fortress in the west of the city to Wuwei City was only a day and a night. After a long day and night of running, by the time Dai Ze saw Wuwei City, the sun was already setting.
Dai Ze simply ordered the soldiers to camp where they were and cook rice.
On the mountain not far away, [Scout] player Lin Jianguo has been monitoring Dai Ze's army for a long time.
"Dai Ze is camping thirty miles away from Wuwei City." This news was sent back to Wuwei City by Lin Jianguo.
[Congratulations to player Lin Jianguo for completing the reconnaissance mission and gaining 50 "Scout" professional experience. 】
Lin Jianguo looked at his increasing experience points, and Lin Jianguo laid out his sleeping bag with satisfaction.
It's better to fight. General players like Lin Jianguo can gain experience while fighting. What they want is the feeling of getting rich overnight.
Looking at the experience gauge that was about to reach level 6, Lin Jianguo tied up his sleeping bag with satisfaction. Today he would camp in the wild on the top of the mountain.
Lin Jianguo took out a small windproof stove from his backpack and some flour from the dry food bag. He lit the charcoal fire in the windproof stove and started making dinner.
Players don’t have to choose the taste, as long as they meet their nutritional intake, it will not affect their condition the next day.
If you don't eat well or sleep well, you will have debuffs such as "hungry" and "fatigue" the next day, which will affect your state the next day.
Therefore, wild survival players like Lin Jianguo will strictly follow nutritional requirements and eat high-calorie foods.
Lin Jianguo poured ghee into a portable iron lunch box. This is a fat extracted from milk. It is thicker and easier to preserve than butter. It is a kind of oil that Han and Hu people in Hexi area like to use.
Mix the ghee, flour, and melted snow water, and a large pot of mushy food is ready.
At this time, Lin Jianguo reluctantly took out a piece of bamboo.
The bamboo tube was split open, and it turned out that the bamboo tube was stuffed with starch meat sausage. This was the Tang Dynasty version of "Sparm" luncheon meat produced by the military food factory in Zhangye.
This kind of meat, which is mixed with ground meat and starch and then sterilized and sealed at high temperature, is also a product tinkered with by a player named Qian Jin.
Iron cans are expensive these days, and there is no plastic paper to seal them. This player was very clever when he saw the hollow bamboo.
The middle of the bamboo tube is empty, just right for storing luncheon meat.
Just pour the minced meat into the bamboo tube and seal the mouth of the bamboo tube.
The lunch meat is then cooked and dried in a bamboo tube, so that the lunch meat can be stored for a month without opening.
It is said that Qian Jin is also researching how to make preservatives to preserve luncheon meat for a longer period of time.
Players in this army hated him and called Qian Jin "the root of all evil in junk food."
Since Lin Jianguo went to the mountain to investigate, he has been eating bamboo tube luncheon meat every meal, and he is almost vomiting.
Fry the luncheon meat in ghee and eat it together with the ghee and flour batter.
Lin Jianguo had adjusted his taste to the lowest level, but still found the taste unbearable.
After trying hard to finish his meal, Lin Jianguo got into the fur tent and logged out of the game.
Xue Hu in Wuwei City received news that the Tibetan army was thirty miles away from Wuwei City.
Xue Hu was employed as an internal guard, and no one expected that he would now be responsible for the defense of a city.
Sure enough, the player's fate depends not only on his own choices, but also on the progress of the game.
Xue Hu was one of those who took orders at the last moment, and became the supreme commander of Wuwei City.
Xue Hu took up the [Commander] in the [General] profession as a sub-professional.
The career system of Datang Fengyun allows you to choose a main career and several secondary careers.
The main profession can provide full experience rewards, while the secondary profession can only provide half of the experience rewards.
For example, Xue Hu's current character is Level 5 [Inner Guard] and Level 1 [Commander].
Internal guard is Xue Hu's main profession. By completing tasks and achieving career achievements, you can gain sufficient experience.
But when commanding operations, even if Xue Hu did the same thing as Yu Chixin, he could only gain half of Yuchixin's experience.
In other words, the improvement speed of Xue Hu's [Commander] sub-profession is twice as slow as that of a player like Yu Chixin who chooses [Commander] as his main profession.
This is also the career system that Li Yan formulated to allow players to focus on developing in a certain direction.
However, all of this can be washed away. As long as you pay a few contribution points, you can also choose your main career again.
Xue Hu is not planning to choose his main profession again. He just takes up the position of [Commander] and gets some experience.
The atmosphere in the conference room of the Jiedushi Mansion was extremely tense. How to hold on for three days against the nine thousand Tibetan troops became a question that the thirty players who sneaked into Wuwei City thought about day and night.
Chapter completed!
