Three Kingdoms: Conquer Wu from Maicheng with Cavalry and Swords, Don't Fall Behind

With Han Dang's ferocious head impaled on his Green Dragon Crescent Blade, he paraded through the city. A dazzling display of blade dance, his head still firmly planted, drew cheers from the crowd.

In the Battle of Xiangfan, Xu Huang used a feint attack to the east and a counterattack to the west, advancing rapidly and breaking through Guan Yu's ten layers of defensive barriers. The Jingzhou troops lost their camp and fled south, their morale plummeting.

The Eastern Wu betrayed their alliance and attacked the rear of the Han army. All those with aspirations were filled with righteous indignation, gritting their teeth and shouting "Revenge! Revenge!"

Qi Ye stared at the clear screen, taking in the expressions of everyone present. He couldn't help but recall the blooming of the Malan flower, a symbol of eternal life, and the magnificent execution of the code unique to the Han people.

The main storyline going forward is undoubtedly about holding Maicheng, whose walls are dilapidated and could collapse at any moment, offering absolutely no sense of security. Qi Ye really didn't have any good ideas, so he used the games he had played to illustrate his ambitions.

When "Nanjing" comes to defend.

He glanced at his Martial Saint level, which had steadily reached "5," and his health had surged dramatically. The number of gold coins in the shop, "536," was quite dazzling, exactly the same as his kill count.

"Once the shop opens, the character's strength will definitely see a significant boost, which is the key to defending Maicheng."

Qi Ye looked at the "epic" weapon, the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, and clicked his tongue in amazement. It had a clear "notch" and was no longer as sharp as it had been yesterday.

The fact that weapons have durability is really bad news for players.

He had played similar games where weapons and shields would break after one or more battles, encouraging players to make flexible use of the environment and various weapons.

But without the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, is Guan Yu still the martial saint known to the public?

Zhou Cang rushed out of the crowd, his heart pounding with excitement: "It's so good that you're alright, my lord!"

Qi Ye looked at Zhou Cang, who was striding with the stride of a dragon and the gait of a tiger, showing no sign of injury whatsoever. He truly deserved to be called the number one tank in the Three Kingdoms, having withstood Zhao Yun's Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Spear and running faster than the Jade Lion of the Night while carrying a broken longsword.

Three miles away, the health bar could be seen sticking up to Zhao Yun's face.

He complained that the horse given to him by the Second Master was too slow but couldn't bear to lose it, so he carried the horse given to him by the Second Master and chased after Red Hare all the way. What else could this be but cheating?

"Go back!" Qi Ye typed two words coldly, carrying an undeniable air of authority.

Zhou Cang grinned憨厚ly, holding the reins of Red Hare, and strode ahead to lead the way, looking majestic and not at all like a defeated army.

Wang Fu felt uneasy and exchanged a knowing glance with Zhao Lei: "Zhou Cang is incredibly arrogant, he's got his head on the floor!"

Zhao Lei rolled his eyes and waved his sleeve lightly: "It's good that you're back, Lord. Don't bother arguing with a brute."

The group returned to the hall and took their seats in turn. Soldiers came forward to serve tea and stood guard outside the door with halberds.

The Martial Saint, carrying Han Dang's head, approached Zhao Lei and politely asked, "Is there a blacksmith shop in Maicheng?"

Zhao Lei shuddered slightly as he smelled the strong stench of blood: "I have inspected Maicheng. The blacksmith shops in the city are closed. It is said that the blacksmiths have fled to the countryside to avoid the war."

Qi Ye raised an eyebrow. He had finally established a base, yet he couldn't even repair the Green Dragon Crescent Blade. When the White-Clad Brother besieged the city, he couldn't very well switch to a different weapon to fight back.

What do you mean by "one against a thousand"? I'd rather have my katana registration back.

"What trouble is there in the city that requires my intervention?" The Martial Saint's eyes were icy.

When Mengde entered Wancheng, he suddenly wondered: Are there any prostitutes in this city? He was constantly thinking about taking care of the Second Master.

Qi Ye was different; he was single-mindedly focused on solving his comrades' difficulties. This is the difference between a person and a player.

Zhou Cang knelt down guiltily and took a sip of bitter tea.

Zhao Lei gave him a disgruntled look, but replied magnanimously, "Reporting to Your Majesty, the city is peaceful and there is nothing to deal with."

Qi Ye was slightly disappointed and was about to ask Wang Fu a question.

Liao Hua spoke first: "Has the matter of the rumors been dealt with? There are spies from Eastern Wu causing trouble within the city; we cannot be negligent!"

Zhou Cang choked on his tea and shouted, "Liao Yuanjian, what do you mean? How did I become a spy for Eastern Wu?!"

Guan Ping stared in disbelief: "You spread the rumor that the general died on the battlefield?! Prove my and General Liao's innocence!"

Zhou Cang, with a resounding clasp of his hands, offered his apologies to the Martial Saint, carrying thorns on his back.

"My lord is injured and has not returned all night. I was anxious to leave the city, but Wang Fu and Zhao Lei both stopped me. I was out of my mind and argued with them, saying some bad things that may have been overheard by others."

"I know that Your Excellency is always strict in governing the army. I will not shirk my responsibility and am willing to accept military punishment!"

Wang Fu's gaze was complex as he bowed respectfully.

"My lord, now is the time when we need capable men. Please allow General Zhou to atone for his crimes through meritorious service."

Of everyone present, only Zhou Cang could keep up with Guan Yu's pace. The dozens of blows he received before the battle would have been almost fatal.

Zhao Lei, his face taut, said in a deep voice:

"With your return, the rumors have been dispelled, and the morale of the army and the people has been united. General Zhou may not have achieved great merit, but he has certainly worked hard. Please, Your Majesty, grant him your mercy."

The Martial Saint presented the Green Dragon Crescent Blade to Zhou Cang.

Zhou Cang looked bewildered, then suddenly became resolute in the face of death: "Since ancient times, when the master dies, the servant has no choice but to die. Why use the Green Dragon Crescent Blade to kill me, thus tarnishing your reputation? Guards, bring me my small knife!"

The atmosphere inside the hall was somber, and Qi Ye looked strange. Guan Ping, Liao Hua, and others broke the deadlock and began to plead for Zhou Cang.

In his mind's eye, Guan Yu was frantic with worry: "I, Guan, am willing to stake my life on this! Zhou Cang has followed me faithfully, repeatedly risking his life to protect his lord. His character is like a rough gem; with a little polishing, he will surely become a pillar of society. I implore Your Majesty to allow him to atone for his crimes through meritorious service!"

Zhou Cang's eyes were open and honest, with tears welling up as he stared intently at the head on the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, without finding it ferocious.

This idiot is really fearless.

Qi Ye calmly typed, "I'll reforge the Green Dragon Crescent Blade and spare your life."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief; the Marquis still cherished the simpleton!

Zhou Cang knew that the Green Dragon Crescent Blade was the Lord's most cherished possession and could not be lost. He took the heavy blade and made a manly promise: "Lord, I will definitely repair it."

Qi Ye was the one who truly breathed a sigh of relief. It would have been a real shame if an epic-level weapon had been destroyed in his hands. He still had 100,000 Jiangdong soldiers to kill, and he couldn't do that without weapons.

Weapons in this game have durability, and warhorses can also be destroyed. It's impossible to capture enemy generals and flags with your bare hands.

He continued asking Wang Fu, Liao Hua, and Guan Ping, but didn't get any side quests, which made him somewhat disappointed.

"It seems I need to find an opportunity to visit the stronghold. I can't just stop having missions now that I'm the city lord."

Players who frequently complete tasks usually have clear eyes, are extremely confident, have great confidence in their abilities, and become increasingly intelligent. Over time, they can even become like geniuses.

Completing tasks can also reshape the body's structure and create various medical miracles. Once a person starts doing tasks, it means that this person's intelligence, character, and appearance are all of the highest quality, and they will definitely be able to accomplish anything in this life in a legitimate and honorable way.

Qi Ye has been playing for several hours and hasn't gotten a single mission reward. At this rate, when will he ever be able to take on a thousand enemies single-handedly?

Footsteps sounded outside the hall, and the gatekeeper announced in a clear, booming voice, "Your Excellency, Yi Ji requests an audience!"

The mission has begun.

Qi Ye was in high spirits and could continue to fight in the Three Kingdoms.
