Chapter 2734 Zhang Liao's Exceptional Team Battle Support Ability

Based on their knowledge of real history, players deduced that Dong Zhuo's camp would not be destroyed like the Yellow Turban camp of the Way of Peace. Dong Zhuo was able to preserve his base, so they then watched the infighting among the warlords of Guandong.

Later on, if Dong Zhuo hadn't been so extravagant and complacent, he would never have met such a tragic end, having been ranked second on the list of warlords.

Therefore, players will still choose Dong Zhuo's faction. However, this time they will be more vigilant and less easily manipulated by Dong Zhuo.

Apart from Liu Bei, who had many capable individuals under his command, other warlords generally had similar individuals under their command, but not as many as Liu Bei, nor did they trust them as much. Therefore, even if these individuals betrayed them, the losses were not significant.

"By causing something like this, aren't we also eroding the original inhabitants' tolerance and trust in the players?" Lin Mu closed the forum and sighed softly.

Lin Mu could certainly have done this better and more thoroughly if he wanted to, but Guo Jia and the others disagreed. After all, gains obtained through betrayal are short-term, detrimental to one's character, and even bad luck!

"Qingmu, ask your brother, First Myth, what changes have occurred in his progress on the feudal lord mission?" Lin Mu remembered a question and sent a message to First Qingmu.

"Okay, wait a moment." First Qingmu replied instantly.

A short while later, the first Qingmu sent a message: "My brother's progress was originally 98/1000, but after he plundered Liu Bei and weakened him, why did his progress not increase, but instead decrease to 92!"

"That's really true!" Lin Mu suddenly realized.

"Your brother and the others betrayed Liu Bei, which weakened their own hidden reputation and prestige, hence this situation," Lin Mu replied.

"What? There's such a saying..." First Qingmu exclaimed in surprise.

"Of course, in order to be listed on the Heavenly and Earthly Lords Ranking, in addition to hard conditions such as territory development and military strength, there are also soft conditions. For example, Dragon Luck, Tiger Luck, reputation, national legend status, world epic status, etc..." Lin Mu pointed out.

"Then my brother suffered a huge loss?" First Qingmu sent Lin Mu's guidance to her brother immediately and asked speechlessly.

"No, he weakened Liu Bei. Once he obtains the general's seal and officially assumes the position, he will benefit from the fortune of Dong Zhuo's camp, which might speed up the process a bit," Lin Mu speculated.

"oh oh……"

"How's the situation on your end?" Lin Mu asked casually.

"The situation is alright... Let me give you a preliminary report here... Construction of docks has begun on the thirty territories along the river that were originally planned..." First Qingmu began to report to Lin Mu.

As the darling daughter of the first family, instead of shining brightly within the family, she comes to work for Lin Mu. It's truly astonishing.

After discussing some matters, Lin Mu hung up the call and then lay down to rest.

He hadn't slept much lately, constantly busy or cultivating. As for the outcome of Li Ru's siege of Guan Yu, Lin Mu hadn't paid attention to the whole process, since it was unlikely to succeed anyway.

Lin Mu was sound asleep, but outside, a storm was brewing.

Just as Guan Yu was being besieged and killed, the main force of the Guandong Allied Army was also attacked.

At this moment, Cao Cao's camp was ablaze with flames, and shouts of battle echoed through the sky.

Looking down from above, one would see that not only Cao Cao's camp, but all the nearby camps had been attacked by Dong Zhuo's iron cavalry.

The Kwantung Allied Forces never expected that Dong Zhuo's iron cavalry would be so bold as to charge directly into the camp.

Cao Cao did not expect that the iron cavalry would not only dare to charge into the camp of more than 20 million men, but also succeed, and even break through his camp!
That's right! A cavalry force from Bingzhou charged in from the east of Cao Cao's camp and out from the west, causing him to lose a significant number of troops.

"My lord, we can't catch up! Our top generals are all tied down!" Xiahou Dun reported to Cao Cao with a livid face.

"Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan!!" Cao Cao gritted his teeth, staring hatefully at the direction from which the shouts of battle were coming from.

The commander of this Bingzhou cavalry force was none other than Zhang Liao.

"Two hundred thousand Bingzhou cavalry charged into the camp, cutting across it. We've suffered heavy losses this time." Cao Cao's expression was no better.

"What's the situation over there now?" Cao Cao composed himself and asked in a deep voice.

“Currently, only Zhang Liao, a divine general, is leading seven thousand men to cover the rear,” Xiahou Dun said quickly.

"Only seven thousand men to cover the rear?" Cao Cao was slightly taken aback.

"Quickly, mobilize everyone and surround these seven thousand men!" Cao Cao exclaimed excitedly as a thought suddenly popped into his mind.

"My lord, if you go and take a look, you might not have this idea anymore," Xiahou Dun said with a wry smile.

It was because he couldn't do anything to Zhang Liao that he retreated and went to Cao Cao's side to report the situation.

"Let's go!" Cao Cao sensed something amiss in Xiahou Dun's tone. The two spurred their horses and quickly arrived at the battlefield.

At the west gate of the collapsed, flame-scorched camp, Zhang Liao, his body glowing with purple light, was fighting against Cao Hong, Cao Ren, Cao Chun, and Xiahou Yuan.

That's right, Zhang Liao single-handedly withstood the attack of four fierce generals!

Upon seeing this scene, even Cao Cao was dumbfounded.

Lu Bu's generals are actually this powerful?!
“My lord, I was also among them earlier, but I couldn’t do anything to Zhang Liao.”

"Also, my lord, look at his soldiers," Xiahou Dun reminded him.

Upon hearing this, Cao Cao immediately looked toward the battlefield to the side, where seven thousand valiant Bingzhou cavalry, also glowing with a faint purple light, were frantically slaughtering Cao Cao's soldiers who were surging forward!

Cao Cao stared intently for a moment, then sensed something amiss: "What's going on? How come their Earth-rank generals are evenly matched with our Heaven-rank generals? How can a Mysterious-rank general defeat our Earth-rank generals?"

"That's right... this is the effect of Zhang Liao's Divine Domain!"

"Look, those purple fluorescent lights actually all have a very thin line, one end connecting to each soldier and the other end linking to Zhang Liao!"

"Fortunately, it's because its divine realm can't allow a Heavenly Rank Martial General to fight against a Divine General, otherwise we could have surrendered..." Xiahou Dun sighed.

Zhang Liao is the most dazzling player in team battles!

"Zhang Liao is a genius!" Cao Cao was not surprised but delighted. He had a premonition that if he could recruit Zhang Liao into his ranks, the foundation of his camp would become even stronger!
"Yuanrang, can you go to the battlefield over there to provide support?" Cao Cao asked, pointing to the battlefield where ordinary soldiers were fighting.

“No, once I join the battlefield, I will be included in its divine domain. Its divine domain has a very strange constant rule. I can only stay on this battlefield. Once I run over, I will be teleported back. If I leave the battlefield, that rule will not be applied to me. It seems to have no range. It seems to only have cause and effect relationship…” Xiahou Dun analyzed Zhang Liao’s divine domain.

"So amazing? This divine domain is no less valuable than Lu Zhi's True Word Divine Domain... It will definitely make it onto the list of divine domains of heaven and earth!" Cao Cao said solemnly.

"My lord, Zhang Liao is a general with immense potential. If you could acquire him, it would be like adding wings to a tiger!" Even Xiahou Dun, an opponent, praised Zhang Liao highly, which shows just how outstanding Zhang Liao's performance was.

"My lord, the initial casualties of the raiding camp have been reported." Just then, a messenger ran over to report.

"Speak!" Cao Cao stared intently at Zhang Liao.

"We suffered a total of 139,372 dead and 189,000 seriously or lightly wounded. There were no losses to our grain depots and other strategic points," the messenger quickly reported.

"What... such a huge loss!!" Xiahou Dun's expression changed slightly upon hearing this.

Upon hearing this, Cao Cao closed his eyes in heartache and silently endured the pain.

These fallen soldiers are basically never able to be resurrected; once they die, they are gone forever!

Although he had two million soldiers, the number 130,000 might not seem like much, but he felt that it had seriously damaged him!

“Yuan Rang, I feel we are too complacent… the Guandong Coalition is too complacent… we should be like Sun Jian, like Gongsun Zan…” Cao Cao said quietly with his eyes closed.

"Pass on my orders: reorganize the troops, and have the logistics army prepare war supplies and provisions in advance. We will leave the allied forces, abandon the planned route, and head to Zhongmu City to attack Yuanling City further south! Then we will proceed along the northwest route to Hulao Pass!"

Zhang Liao's charge into the camp served as a wake-up call for Cao Cao!

"Forget it, let's not go after Zhang Liao..." After issuing the order, Cao Cao opened his eyes, looked at Zhang Liao, and waved his hand, saying, "Let them go!"

"My lord, this..." Xiahou Dun was a little confused about Cao Cao's intentions in making this decision.

"If Dong Zhuo doesn't fall, if Lü Bu doesn't fall, Zhang Liao might not surrender to me, and it's uncertain whether we can even keep him... Let's not add any more unnecessary casualties..."

"As long as we kill Dong Zhuo and Lü Bu, Zhang Liao will be ours for the taking!" Cao Cao said confidently.

"My lord is wise!" Xiahou Dun flattered.

"Ding ding!~~~" Soon, the sound of gongs rang out. Upon hearing the gongs signaling the retreat, Cao Cao's soldiers who were besieging Zhang Liao's army quickly withdrew from the battlefield.

Seeing this, Zhang Liao didn't stubbornly continue and withdrew with the remaining four thousand-plus troops.

During this period of rearguard action, even with his exceptional assistance, they still suffered over two thousand casualties against Cao Cao's army.

Like Cao Cao, these Bingzhou cavalry could not be revived!
Zhang Liao was also heartbroken... but unfortunately, it was an order, and he had no choice but to go.

Having completed his mission, Zhang Liao led his troops in a swift withdrawal, without joining the battles between other camps, and quickly escaped.
