Online Game: Me, with Unparalleled Comprehension

Outside the city gate, Mu Lingyun, mounted on horseback and brandishing a long sword, shouted, "Kill!"

Five thousand soldiers followed behind, their hoofbeats and footsteps mingling together, shaking the ground.

Han Yufeng led three thousand men in from the other side, with Zhao Yu'e and Sun Yujiao following on either side. The three of them rode their horses at the forefront, their willow-leaf daggers gleaming coldly in the firelight.

Zhang Heng led 10,000 men in from the front, a dark mass, with shields in the front, spears in the back, and archers behind them.

Li Hu's men also rushed in. Several hundred second-rate martial artists, along with a group of third-rate martial artists, mingled in the ranks, specifically targeting those wearing general's armor.

A chaotic battle erupted instantly.

Wu Feng stood on the watchtower, squinting as he watched.

The battle below was one-sided. The garrison in Mozhou City was already small, and he had killed a number of them during the day, leaving only a few thousand capable of fighting.

After Mu Lingyun's troops charged in, they cut through the Liao soldiers like a knife into tofu, and the Liao soldiers fell in droves.

Han Yufeng's side was even more ruthless. Zhao Yu'e and Sun Yujiao led their men to charge into crowded areas. Willow-leaf knives and short swords flew through the crowd, and bursts of white light appeared one after another.

Although Zhang Heng's side fought more slowly, they had more men; with 10,000 men pressing forward, the Liao soldiers simply couldn't withstand it.

Li Hu's men were scattered throughout the battlefield, specifically targeting centurions and chiliarchs who led their teams.

With the general dead, the soldiers below became even more chaotic; some surrendered, some fled, and some stood there in a daze.

Wu Feng watched for a while and then nodded.

There's no need to take action.

After dealing with the matter at the city gate, Li Hu lightly stepped forward and used his lightness skill to leap onto the watchtower, landing next to Wu Feng.

He glanced down and said, "The forces in Mozhou City are indeed not many. According to my intelligence from Youzhou City, Youzhou City currently has no more than 30,000 troops. I saw quite a few cavalrymen hurriedly leaving the city earlier, probably to seek reinforcements."

He paused, then turned to look at Wu Feng: "It's best to take Youzhou City as soon as possible, otherwise the difficulty will increase considerably once troops from other cities gather to provide support."

Wu Feng nodded.

It must be said that the military's information channels are indeed flexible, covering the entire game world.

They had a clear understanding of the troop strength, movements, and requests for reinforcements in Youzhou City.

This made attacking the Liao Kingdom much easier.

"After we conquer this city, we'll rest for a day, and then launch a direct attack on Youzhou City the day after tomorrow," Wu Feng replied after a moment's thought.

He glanced at the battle below, then turned to Li Hu and asked, "Where are your large army of soldiers?"

They used to say there would be hundreds of thousands, but now only a little over 30,000 have arrived.

Upon hearing this, Li Hu curled his lip and said, "They're almost there. They should be in the counties we've established by now."

These people are still too slow.

However, there's nothing we can do about it.

The game map is too big; even riding a horse around takes a long time.

Wu Feng muttered, "How many people are there? If there are 300,000, let's just take them all at once."

The player's cavalry is different from the NPC's cavalry.

The player's cavalry does not consume resources, so if there are 300,000 of them, and they are all of the third-rate warrior level, they would be considered elite troops.

With 300,000 elite troops, they can easily sweep through any terrain.

Li Hu said, "The people from all the military regions have come here; if we gather them all, there might be more than 500,000 people. However, I think it would be best to let them develop in the counties we've already captured for the time being. Their journey here has already slowed down our progress considerably."

He paused, then continued, "Moreover, preventing them from coming out can be used as a surprise attack, perhaps allowing us to launch a surprise attack on the Liao army."

After listening, Wu Feng nodded.

He didn't care about that.

Let them develop there and hold onto their previous territory.

However, this area also needs a lot of people to guard it.

He still needs to bring some people to Mozhou City to help defend the city.

Wu Feng looked at Li Hu and said, "Arrange for some people to come and guard Mozhou City. We're going to attack Youzhou the day after tomorrow, and Mozhou City can't be left unattended."

Li Hu nodded: "Okay, I'll make the arrangements."

Wu Feng hummed in agreement, said nothing more, and turned to look at the situation below.

The battle has entered its final stage.

With several times the number of troops and the addition of assassins by some high-level martial artists, the outcome of the battle was almost a foregone conclusion.

The Liao soldiers were either killed, surrendered, or fled.

The streets were littered with orbs of light and scattered weapons, and the bloodstains looked dark red in the torchlight.

Wu Feng's decision not to make a move was to let Mu Lingyun and his group practice their skills and get some experience.

After all, troops can only be strengthened through battle.

He fought all the battles himself and gained all the experience on his own. In the end, all the soldiers were new recruits and were of little use.

Soldiers still need to fight to advance; that's the only way to get promoted.

The battle lasted less than half an hour before it ended.

The shouts of battle in the city gradually subsided, leaving only cries, wails, and the footsteps of soldiers clearing the area.

Seeing that the battle was over, Wu Feng and Li Hu jumped down from the watchtower and landed on the open ground at the city gate.

Mu Lingyun rode over, dismounted, and clasped his hands in greeting, saying, "Your Excellency, the battle is over. The Liao soldiers suffered over three thousand dead, over four thousand surrendered, and the rest fled. Our army suffered relatively few casualties, with over one hundred killed and over three hundred wounded."

Wu Feng nodded.

Han Yufeng also rode over on horseback, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "Your Excellency, the main streets of the city have been brought under control. The remaining Liao soldiers are hiding in the houses and are searching them house by house."

Zhang Heng ran over from the city gate, bowing and sweating: "Your Excellency, the supply warehouse has been found, but we haven't had time to take inventory yet."

Wu Feng waved his hand and began to make arrangements.

"Mu Lingyun, go and arrange for the prisoners. Those who surrender will be incorporated into the army and locked up in the open space west of the city. Have people watch over them to prevent them from causing trouble. Send the wounded to the infirmary for treatment."

Mu Lingyun clasped his hands in a fist salute: "Yes."

"Zhang Heng, go and organize the resources. Take inventory of the supplies in the warehouses and register them. Investigate all the aristocratic families and clans in the city. Execute any who disobey, leaving no future trouble. We're leaving for Youzhou the day after tomorrow, and I don't have time to deal with them slowly. If these people show even the slightest sign of disobedience, just kill them."

Zhang Heng quickly bowed and said, "Yes, Your Excellency. I understand."

Wu Feng then looked at Han Yufeng: "Han Yufeng, send people to monitor various parts of the city. If there are any unusual occurrences, resolve them if you can; otherwise, come back and report."

Han Yufeng clasped her hands in a fist and said, "Yes, Your Excellency."

The three accepted the order and turned to go their separate ways.

After making the arrangements, Wu Feng looked at Li Hu.

"I'm going to rest now. You can arrange things for your people. Just make sure they're well-rested and don't affect the operation."

Li Hu nodded, got up and left.

Wu Feng also turned and walked towards the governor's mansion.

The governor's mansion of Mozhou was located in the center of the city. Two guards stood at the gate and quickly bowed when they saw him coming.

Wu Feng went inside, crossed the front yard, and found a room.

He closed the door and sat down on the bed.

He took the Divine Wood King Cauldron out of his backpack and held it in his palm.

With a slight thought, the true energy of the Vermilion Toad in his dantian surged and flowed slowly along his meridians.

The fiery and toxic true energy circulated through the meridians, carrying a burning sensation.

The poisonous power within the Divine Wood King Cauldron was drawn out and gradually merged into the true energy.

[Toad Skill Proficiency +396]

One week, two weeks, three weeks.

The true energy washed over the meridians again and again, and the proficiency level gradually increased.
