attack city

Early the next morning, Shenlong City set off north along the coastline.

They need to pass through the end area of ​​the leg on the U-shaped plateau, which is only a few dozen kilometers away from the sea. It is a flat land, and the only way to go north from here is that way.

Of course, that area is relatively safe, because passing through the end area is the Pine Forest Trading Ground.

Although the end area of ​​the leg on the U-shaped plateau is still far away from the Pine Forest Trading Ground, it is still within the radiation range of the trading ground.

The Pinewood Exchange is also at the county level.

According to He Qingqing, it is a very big one, that is, there are many cities where it is gathered, much more than ordinary trading venues, so even if there are energy giants, they are all gone.

However, after approaching the Songlin Trading Ground, Xiang Yang discovered that it was not a big problem, but a super huge problem.

This trading ground stretches for more than 200 kilometers, and there are at least more than a thousand permanent cities.

For smaller cities, it would be difficult to contact all the cities in this trading place without moving.

Shenlong City still needed to rest here for a few days before continuing, so shortly after entering the radio contact range, Xiang Yang continued to publish a transaction message.

When they were about 150 kilometers from the center of the trading field, the outlying cities were already within their sight.

Shenlong City did not attract much attention when entering here, because it connects the nearby land plates in different directions and is a hub node position.

There is even a city-level colored glaze trading center within a radius of ten thousand miles.

There are many people from county-level cities who come here, and more people pass through here than stay here for a long time.

So the city here is also calm.

Xiang Yang parked Shenlong City near the mountains, at a water supply point. This area was already the core of the trading field, but it was only the peripheral area of ​​the core.

But there are many rivers and lakes in this trading place, and there are many fresh water supply points.

Near the coastline, there is only a section of beach, and the rest are seaside cliffs, which also contributes to the superior geographical location of this trading site.

Because there are rivers crisscrossing the land, if it is all lowland, it must be soft land, which is not suitable for giant cities to enter the seaside. In other words, it is difficult for cities in the second stage to stay here for too long.

Especially county-level and county-level cities will fall into the ground.

The coast is dominated by cliffs, which shows that the geography here is a rock structure and can be regarded as an extension of the plateau. The overall terrain is actually not low, making it easier to bear the weight of the city.

Having more rivers to supply fresh water is simple, but it is a very important advantage.

As usual, he parked the Shenlong City, put down the water absorbing device, and began to search for various information on the bulletin board.

"Hey, Black Cat City?"

Xiang Yang didn't pay much attention to the transaction information in this city, but he felt that the name of the city was very familiar, and he must have heard it somewhere.

But he couldn't remember it.

"This is Shenlong City, call Black Cat City, do you sell some beets?" Xiang Yang decided to contact the other party, and maybe talk more about what he would think of.

Because he can be sure that since entering the wasteland world, he has definitely not had direct contact with this city during his journey here.

But he was very impressed by the name of this city.

This is very strange, so I probably learned the name of the city while talking to other cities, or it may be a memory from a previous life.

No matter what it is, it would be best if you can recall it.

"Yes, the quality of our beets is very good. You can check the goods. The specific prices are on the bulletin board." The other party responded quickly.

However, the standard terminology of wasteland, which is called first, is not used, indicating that the probability of it being a new human city is very high.

Because many new human cities have some habits that are not so quick to adapt to the wasteland, they often forget, or are not used to calling first.

"Okay, let's take a look at the goods first."

Beet is used to make sugar. Shenlong City rarely makes it by itself, but mostly buys it directly.

But they have their own craftsmanship in this area, combining the skills of the indigenous people and the new humans of Terra, so there is no problem in making them themselves.

Therefore, this could be purchased or not, but in order to make contact and see the appearance of the other party's city, he made an inquiry.

The price is okay, and if the quality is good, it's okay to buy some.

"We are at the southern entrance and exit, by Lake No. 3 downstream of Branch No. 10. Where are you?" Black Cat City asked.

"The only lakeside in the upper reaches of the No. 10 branch." Xiang Yang replied: "Come over here. We park here at the water absorption point in the city. We are the only county-level lakeside, so it is easier to recognize."

"Yeah, it's a county-level city, okay." Over at Black Cat City, their city leader was on the phone, and after saying that, he came over here.

"Town level, Black Cat City." Xiang Yang quickly saw the other party's city, which was only a town-level city, but he still didn't remember it.

However, the transaction was very pleasant, and the quality of the sweet tea in Black Cat City was very good.

For county-level cities, the route back to Liulicheng is considered a relatively safe route, and it is relatively simple to arrange the start of construction work on the way.

So Xiang Yang decided to buy more and make his own sugar, which was slightly cheaper.

It's just that in the past, Shenlong City was very pressed for time, and they always had a lot of energy blocks. In order to reduce the simplification of travel plans, they bought some resources as much as they could.

Of course, in order to make travel plans simpler, many cities focus on a few supplies and use the rest for exchange.

With such familiarity and small quantity, whether it is management, production, or travel planning, the efficiency will be much higher.

Because Shenlong City requires a large amount, after all, they have a large population and a large demand, and the price is a bit cheaper, and the inventory of Black Cat City was sold out in one fell swoop.

Beet was the last batch of supplies sold in Black Cat City. After clearing the inventory, they continued to rest for two days before leaving the Pine Forest Trading Ground and heading towards the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground.

"Go back to Swordfish Bay, isn't this side of Pine Forest?"

Xiang Yang had been paying attention to this city. Looking at the radar, he slowly left the trading yard and headed to Black Cat City in the direction of the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground. Suddenly, he had an idea and remembered.

"Instead of returning to the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground, they also passed by there. They will eventually return to the Black Ridge Trading Ground."

Xiang Yang suddenly realized that he could now confirm that Black Cat City was a new human city, stationed in the Black Ridge Trading Ground, and often went to the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground.

Because the Black Ridge Trading Ground is too small, only at the town level, in most New Human cities, some supplies are unavailable or difficult to obtain, and some supplies are overflowing, similar to the Crocodile Valley Trading Ground.

However, there are only a few county-level cities in the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground, and the overall number is not as large as that of the Songlin Trading Ground. Some metal resources are more expensive than the Songlin Trading Ground, and it is more cost-effective to buy them in Songlin.

As for agricultural products, because there are many cities in Songlin Exchange and it is the junction of several large regional land plates, there are too many powerful cities passing by.

Therefore, the security is not as high as the other two trading venues, so there are fewer in the first stage and village-level cities.

Naturally, fewer cities are willing to stay in the trading market and farm land in exchange for resources.

Therefore, the prices of agricultural products here at Songlin Exchange are slightly higher, although in fact they are not much higher and cannot be compared with those at Liulicheng.

However, many new human cities often resell supplies, or sell them when they go to buy supplies themselves.

Of course, the main reason is that these three trading venues are all on the coast, the routes are simple, the seaside terrain is not so rugged, the roads are easy to walk, and you will not get lost.

Safety is also good. Except for a few swamps and disaster areas that can be bypassed, and not getting too close to the plateau, as long as it is a second-stage city, it is almost always relatively safe.

Unlike the Liuli Trading Ground, it is not on a county-level scale and is very risky when passing around Wolf Ridge. Therefore, low-level cities like Black Ridge and Swordfish Bay would not dare to go there even if they knew they would be more profitable.

For Xiang Yang, simply confirming these is meaningless. The real meaning is that he knows that Black Cat City was plundered and destroyed by Iron King City.

It was also a town-level city, so I should have gone to the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground. I don’t know exactly when and from which direction I went to the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground.

In his previous life, when Gu Jiacheng was trading with a county-level city at the Crocodile Valley Trading Ground, Xiang Yang heard about it because several of them escaped from Black Cat City and were eventually accepted by that city.

During the transaction, two of them were responsible for delivery, and Xiang Yang was also one of the people responsible for delivery in Gujiacheng.

The two people knew that Gujiacheng was also a new human city from Terra, and Xiang Yang was also from Terra, so the conversation got out of hand.

"At least at this time, they haven't encountered the plunder of the Iron King City, but the time should not be far away."

Xiang Yang remembers that it should be within three years.

Because the two people were very sad at that time, they always felt that Black Cat City was running very well and they were usually cautious, but in the end they couldn't survive even three years.

The city only reached the town level, but it still died at the hands of Terra's own people.

Especially the last point makes it difficult for them to let go.

"It hasn't even lasted three years, so it's more than two years, and most likely it will be several months after two years." Xiang Yang pondered, "It roughly matches the current time. Maybe I can follow them and give it a try."

Now, if Iron King City has returned to the vicinity of the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground, then the looting has not started yet, but it will happen sooner or later.

Black Cat City also happens to be heading towards the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground, and they are a resident city in the Black Ridge Trading Ground, so Iron King City is very familiar with them.

In the early days, when I just left the Novice Continent, before being identified as a bandit city, Iron King City was also stationed at the Black Ridge Trading Ground for a short period of time.

Therefore, I am very familiar with the Black Ridge Trading Ground and Iron King City, including some of the early New Human cities there.

In the past, Tie Wangcheng also served as the boss of a small team that gathered together to keep warm in the new human city. It was not until Tieshan designed and plundered many cities belonging to his group that they were completely exposed and had to wander into the wild.

Tieshan's camouflage ability is still very strong.

Of course, there may be insufficient time and a little advance time is needed.

However, Shenlong City had only participated in the defense for a short time, and their duty points were not very high. Even if the calculation was restarted, they actually did not lose much.

"That's it." Xiang Yang still made his decision.

After all, this opportunity is rare. If you give up, it will be close next time, or three years later, Black Cat City will most likely be destroyed.

The only thing left is how to explain it to others.

Black Cat City will be destroyed at the hands of Iron King City in the next few months. This is a certain thing, but it cannot be said that it was known in the past life, and other reasons can only be used.

This was not a problem for Xiang Yang. He held a meeting with the participation of warrior leaders and above.

………………

"I suddenly had an idea."

Xiang Yang turned his back to the radar screen.

On the screen were two city lights that were leaving, one was Black Cat City, and the other was another city, also at the town level.

"If Iron King City is sure to have returned to the plateau, then they are likely to launch plunder in the next few months, or even within this month."

Xiang Yang said.

Everyone present at the meeting nodded. This inference is very reasonable. In fact, many people have also thought about it.

But they were also afraid that Iron King City was still hiding near the Shahu Trading Ground and had not come back, so it would be impossible to rob here. And they were running out of time, so no one mentioned this idea.

"The most familiar areas in Iron King City are around the Black Ridge Trading Ground and the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground."

"The Black Ridge Trading Ground is too far away from here, so we have no choice but to hope that we will do it near the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground."

"Previous intelligence from Blue Bird City also showed that Iron King City has moved to the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground, so we can only start from there."

"Assume that Iron King City is still a county-level city now."

This guess is also extremely reasonable and has a high probability of being correct, because it is not that easy to enter the county level.

"Then the most suitable target for Iron King City to plunder is the town level."

Because the county level robs the town level, it can be crushed and defeated quickly, preventing it from being discovered and disturbed by other passing cities.

At the same time, with a high probability, the resources obtained are the most in cities below the county level.

This is also the most common choice for bandits when plundering targets in cities.

"We only need to follow them to the town-level cities in the wild, and then we have a great chance of encountering the Iron King City dispatched to carry out robberies and crimes."

Xiang Yang pointed at the two city blips on the radar screen.

"Now there are exactly two town-level cities leaving the Pine Forest Trading Ground and heading to the Swordfish Bay Trading Ground. We can follow these two cities."

"I see, but I think the probability is still very low, just like finding a needle in a haystack."

Bai Qianxue said: "There seems to be no time. Once we follow, we won't be able to get to the Liuli Trading Place in time."

"Indeed." Others also said.

Xiang Yang's plan is a waste of time, and the probability of success is actually low, but it is still feasible, but they currently have no time.

"Even if time has passed, we only have nine duty points in total, and we can earn them back soon."

Xiang Yang said: "But if we can handle this trip, we don't need to work hard to earn duty points to exchange for rocket launcher technology, because Iron King City already has it, and it is even more advanced."

That being said, Liulicheng's rocket launcher technology still needs to be redeemed.

Because the combination of similar technologies from multiple sources will be of great help to the growth of the technical team.

Now I'm just trying to find a reason to support my actions.
