Real Cthulhu Running Game

Liu Xing recalled carefully and found that just as Ling Yi said, there is only one main road from Boyang City to Far West City, and the remaining small roads can almost be described as inaccessible. After all, there are main roads now. Go, then only unlucky guys like Ge Jing who are being chased by others will take the small road.

So when the defense line from Boyang City to Far West City is established, no matter who comes to attack, they can only choose one side to attack. If they want to bypass one side and attack the other side, they will 100% be discovered. At that time, unless you have a large number of troops and can attack another city after surrounding one city, you may encounter unfavorable situations such as a mid-crossing attack or an ambush.

If it were normal times, the forces of the former prince would simply be seeking death by doing this. After all, even if the third prince had a bad relationship with the other princes, in such a situation of great right and wrong, the other princes would be willing to send troops to assist the third prince. To solve the problem, as long as both sides attack Boyang City and Far West City at the same time, the problem will be solved.

However, now the former prince's side obviously wants to wait until the other princes have broken their skins before he can stand up and cause trouble. By then, as long as nothing unexpected happens, Boyang City and Far West City will only need to compete with each other. Facing a prince's attack, this line of defense can last longer.

What's more, in Liu Xing's view, although so many years have passed, the power of the former prince is still well preserved, and some major organizations should still exist, such as the Shadow Guards, which left many traces in Tianshui Town, and The so-called Dark Sword Organization currently lurking in Ling Yi, and the Feishi Sect that is suspected of working for the former prince.

Therefore, when the current prince's forces decide to take action, the power they can unleash in a short period of time cannot be underestimated. In addition to Boyang City and Far West City, they should also be able to capture several weakly defended cities. , after all, most of the nearby cities have only a few hundred defenders. Coupled with the assistance of the local martial arts and various sects, it is equivalent to a thousand-man defenders.

What's more, in this case, it is normal for soldiers to fight against soldiers and against generals. Therefore, even if there are martial arts masters in the local area, the former prince can send martial arts masters of the same level or even more powerful to challenge, or After the fight started, they came forward to fight. In this way, the siege battle returned to the attack and defense between the soldiers. Then the overall number of people was superior, and the former prince's side, which had more martial arts masters, was in a sure win.

But here comes the problem. If this is really the case, then Tianshui Town, which is sandwiched between Boyang City and Far West City, will be very embarrassed, because regardless of the existence of Gongzi Ying and Liang Waner, Liu Xing feels that the former prince also They will send people to attack Sweetwater Town. After all, this is a problem for them and they have to get rid of it.

So this is not a good thing for Liu Xing and others.

But having said that, the current prince of the former dynasty may have been buried long ago, because he is several years older than the new Dragon Emperor, and his physical fitness is far inferior to that of the new Dragon Emperor. After all, the new Dragon Emperor The emperor led the army for many years before he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor. It can be said that he fought here and there for many years. He also practiced martial arts when he was young. Therefore, most people today believe that the former prince no longer exists. Unless he can find magical props such as Shark's clothes, he can survive until now.

But when it came to Shark Yi, Liu Xing thought of the incident mentioned by Tang Sheng, that is, unknown people went to attack the Yuegan tribe who owned Shark Yi, so could these people be the subordinates of the former prince? ? At that time, the former prince might be approaching his end, and other methods could no longer maintain his life, so he thought of the legendary Shark Yi?

"So the most important question at the moment is what is the situation of the former prince? If he has been buried long ago as most people say, then the forces he left behind will not be afraid. After all, a leaderless grasshopper won’t be able to jump around for long before he may end up missing arms and legs, even if the former prince also left behind an heir.”

Zhang Jingxu said with certainty: "No matter how outstanding the heir of the former prince is, it is unlikely that he will seamlessly take over his father's position. After all, his father's subordinates cannot be 100% loyal, because the hozens will scatter when the tree falls." Everyone knows the truth, and the stronger the person, the more ambitious he is; what's more, the former prince cannot use any strong means to restrain his subordinates, or keep these subordinates under his control 24 hours a day. He’s watching right under his nose, so it’s normal for his subordinates to make some small moves.”

"And from our perspective, the subordinates of the former prince have been broken into pieces a long time ago and are scattered in every corner of the New Dragon Empire. They usually do their own things, but there are big events like now. They will only come together when the time comes; therefore, we have reason to suspect that the former prince's side is already a ball of loose sand. Although they can find ways to get together at the beginning, once they encounter problems, they will seem to be tightly held. The mud and sand slid out unstoppably."

"What if the former prince is still alive through some means?" Liu Xing asked subconsciously.

Zhang Jingxu had already guessed that Ling Yi would mention this question when Liu Xing was still alive, so he answered directly: "As far as the physical condition of the former prince, he is definitely not as good as the new Dragon Emperor, so even if he can survive until now, then You can only rely on certain treasures to survive, and your situation must be very bad. We can refer to some rich people in the real world. They rely on sky-high prices of drugs to maintain their vital signs, but they are only maintaining their vital signs. With vital signs and the most basic consciousness, it really looks like life is worse than death..."

"So if the former prince is in this state, then their situation will be even worse, because the former prince has turned into a pure mascot, and the major factions under him are using his signature to do their own things. war, so it is okay for such a force to have a favorable situation at the beginning, but as long as it encounters a difficult situation, many people will be careful; the most important thing is that the former prince has a chance to survive, but he Those loyal men may not be able to persist for so long, after all, it is impossible to mass-produce treasures like this that can extend life."

"So I estimate that the leaders of the major organizations under the former prince may have changed once, or even two or three times, and these new leaders generally lead their own flocks in various places. Chicao may only go to see the former prince when he replaces the old leader, so these new leaders will have contempt for the aging former prince; so unless the former prince Prince Chao has the same abilities as the new Dragon Emperor, otherwise his subordinates would already have ulterior motives, and even some of the more powerful subordinates are already looking for another way out."

As soon as Zhang Jingxu finished speaking, Ling Yi on the side nodded and said: "Yes, my master actually mentioned the former prince, but she didn't say clearly that she worked for the former prince, but in short, she didn't think highly of the former prince. I feel that he has no abilities and is not very good, and he can run faster than anyone else, so it would be fine for him to be a mascot honestly, but if he wants to imitate someone and become a master of micro management, then I estimate his prestige It will decline further.”

Liu Xing smiled and said: "It seems that we can still reach a consensus in this regard, that is, the former prince has withdrawn from the environment, so his power is just a ball of loose sand with some water left. It can be glued together for the time being, but as long as it encounters a little sunshine and the water dries, the flowers will really scatter. So we only need to ensure that their first wave of offensive is not too successful, then as long as the appropriate Pressure can make them collapse on their own."

"The truth is this, but the question is whether our Sweetwater Town can last for so long!"

Zhang Jingxu said with a worried look: "Judging from the current situation, they should know the existence of Tianshui Town, and they also know that the support of the Third Prince is behind Tianshui Town, so if they don't take action against Tianshui Town, I can only think of one thing One possibility is to play a long game to catch the big fish! That is to say, they know that Gongzi Ying is staying in Tianshui Town, so they want to threaten the third prince through Gongzi Ying. After all, Gongzi Ying is the third prince’s most beloved son, so As soon as we arrive, we can remove the threat from the Third Prince’s side and put the main force on the Far West City side.”

Liu Xing did not agree with Zhang Jingxu's idea, "That's not necessarily the case. If I were a subordinate of the former crown prince and now know the existence of Young Master Ying, then I should be able to deduce that in addition to the obvious appearance of Yu In addition to Lei and Xia Fei, there should be more powerful bodyguards guarding Young Master Eagle secretly! Therefore, it is very easy for them to capture Tianshui Town, but it is difficult to capture Young Master Eagle. After all, Tang Sheng only has We need to take Young Master Eagle into the deep mountains and old forests behind, so it is only a matter of time before we can escape from the encirclement."

"So until there is no absolute certainty, I don't think anyone will want to take over Sweetwater Town, because at this time, the Young Master Eagle in Sweetwater Town is like Schrödinger's cat. As long as you don't open the box, Schrödinger's cat will I don’t know whether he is alive or dead, but there is definitely a chance that he is still alive; and the same is true for Young Master Eagle in Tianshui Town. As long as you don’t think about taking over Tianshui Town, then Young Master Eagle has a high probability of still staying in Tianshui Town. , after all, he has nowhere else to go.”

"In this way, the subordinates of the former prince can use this to threaten the third prince, and the third prince will more or less have some tricks to avoid rats. After all, as long as his son does not escape back, then something may happen to his son; This is also like a lottery ticket that has not yet been drawn. No matter how outrageous the numbers you choose seem, it is still possible to win. Then you have the opportunity to transfer this lottery ticket to someone else. But if the lottery has already been drawn, then you Unless you win a lottery ticket, there is definitely no way to sell it to others."

At this point, Liu Xing couldn't help but sigh, "But, the wealth and life of our alliance can only be pinned on Gongzi Ying. If Gongzi Ying chooses to leave early and take a detour back to Liangcheng, then we The situation of the alliance can be described as a narrow escape, because even if there is no Young Master Eagle, Tianshui Town is still a very important node, and ready-made venues can also be used to station troops, and support can be provided faster when necessary Two cities, or to ambush enemy troops who want to launch a sneak attack."

"So Young Master Eagle is very safe, but we in Tianshui Town are not so safe."

Zhang Jingxu also sighed and said helplessly: "We players who stay in Boyang City can provide you with some information, but this information is only like that. At most, we can remind you that someone is ready a few hours in advance. Take action, but it remains to be seen whether such information can be sent out... So our biggest role is to be the icing on the cake. When the third prince wants to take back Boyang City, we can suddenly take action and help open a city gate or something."

"Not to mention my side. Although it seems pretty good and I can move around freely in Far West City, I guess someone is watching me secretly. After all, I am still an intern and have not obtained the qualification yet. The other person’s total trust.”

Ling Yi also looked helpless, spreading his hands and said: "But I also know that the alliance has deployed some people in Far West City, so I will find a way to contact them, but here I have prepared a simple set of marks. It can be used to convey some simple information, so please, Alliance Leader, give it to the players in Far West City after this, and ask them to pay attention to the location of these marks. I will use the marks on these locations to convey some information to them in the future."

Liu Xing nodded in agreement, and then took a folded piece of white paper from Ling Yi's hand.

"It's getting late now, I still have to go back to bed."

Ling Yi stood up and said: "What should I say, my master? He is quite a big man, and he is also a complete drunkard, so he goes to the restaurant to get drunk at this time every day, so I dare to come to see you; but I also I suspect that the reason why she drinks every day is actually looking for opportunities to exchange information with other people, so I plan to go drinking with her in the next two days to see if I can find anything."

After sending Ling Yi away, Liu Xing opened the white paper with marks. Although the marks on the white paper were simple, they were the kind of marks that only players could understand, because these marks were all based on Some car logos are based on real-world car logos, so players can recognize them as soon as they see them.
