Chapter 142: [Behead Zheng Ce, Send Head to Luo Yang] (6.2k combined)

~21 min read 4,137 words

Following the woman's shout on the altar, the young and strong men around also raise their pointed wooden sticks and shout angrily:

"Kill the Han officials! Restore Luoyue!"

"Kill the Han officials! Restore Luoyue!!!"

Wei Ze mingles among them, also putting on an angry look, waving the weapon in his hand. Although the sound around is very loud, Wei Ze's voice can be clearly transmitted to the live stream room:

"I'm going, this game is a bit interesting."

"Experiencing rebellion from a first-person perspective, it's a bit exciting."

"The feeling is coming."

Not to mention Wei Ze is already feeling excited.

Even the Blue Star friends in the live stream room are slightly excited.

Just like when watching a movie, the movie protagonist secretly approaches the enemy, fearing to make a sound, that kind of tension and excitement.

It's just that the protagonist is Wei Ze here.

And what they are going to do is rebel. Under such circumstances, even the Blue Star netizens watching are substituted.

Many people even think, if it were like a movie at this time, and the screen suddenly switched to the other side, discovering that the people gathered here were going to rebel and report it, how exciting that would be.

But fortunately, there are no "ifs."

After all, it is located in a remote area, so after everyone shouts and takes an oath, they pack up everything and head north.

And Wei Ze drifts with the tide, following everyone until they reach the edge of the county town, lurking in the mountain forest until they receive the order to act at night.

Taking advantage of the dark night, these hundreds of young and strong men killed the guards guarding the city.

Under anger and hatred, the guards guarding the city soon collapsed, and Wei Ze also used the pointed wooden stick in his hand to stab two Han army guards to death during the attack, his heart pounding:

"This is different from WWII."

"Ancient times are all close-quarters combat, a bit more exciting."

After all, in WWII, they were all using hot weapons to shoot and bomb each other, and dying didn't feel like much.

But in ancient times... it's real close-quarters combat, you die or I live.

Wei Ze also takes advantage of the night to fish in troubled waters, trying his best to show the Blue Star friends in the live stream room this first-person perspective of "rebellion."

The battle ended quickly.

It is said that the Han official Su Ding, who guarded the city, ran away, so the remaining soldiers saw this and stopped resisting.

After receiving the county town.

It was already the next morning, and even many who were sleeping soundly didn't know what happened, and the county town had changed.

Wei Ze is eating with other Luoyue people in Su Ding's mansion, analyzing the news he gathered with the live stream room:

"It is said that the official Su Ding of this county town killed the patriarch of our village, and the woman on the altar yesterday was the patriarch's wife, because her husband was killed, so she raised an army to rebel."

"Next, we should attack other county towns, must eat quickly."

Wei Ze says this, shoveling the food in the bowl into his mouth in three or two bites.

How should I put it... a bit unpalatable.

But it can be understood, after all, it is ancient times.

Soon Wei Ze finishes eating.

Holding his pointed wooden stick, he wanders around Su Ding's mansion for a while, seeing if there is anything that can be used to process the wooden stick in his hand.

After all, Wei Ze is a Blue Star person.

With Blue Star's knowledge reserve, modifying a wooden stick is not a problem.

It's just that Wei Ze, who is addicted to modifying the wooden stick into something more powerful, doesn't notice that many curious people around are looking over.

Soon the news reaches the Zheng sisters.

Wei Ze hasn't received the order to set off yet when he is summoned by the Zheng sisters.

At this time.

In the county government office.

Zheng Ce looks at the wooden stick modified by Wei Ze; compared to other wooden sticks, it's nothing, just with some barbs and some diamond-shaped grooves dug out:

"These barbs and this..."

Zheng Ce can't say what this is for a while.

Wei Ze says:

"Grooves."

Zheng Ce nods:

"Grooves, what are they all used for."

Wei Ze says:

"Those bronze barbs embedded can hook out the enemy's flesh."

"The diamond-shaped grooves at the tip of the wooden stick can cause multiple wound surfaces, making the enemy bleed continuously."

Hearing Wei Ze's words, Zheng Ce's eyes light up:

"Did you think of these yourself?"

If the effect is really as good as he said, then simple wooden sticks, after digging out diamond-shaped grooves, will also become more powerful weapons, so there is no need to worry about not having enough weapons, as trees are everywhere.

Wei Ze is confused for a while, can only say:

"That's right."

Zheng Ce slaps the table:

"Good!"

"You don't have to go to battle in the future."

"Find a group of people in the county town, use the big trees that are everywhere, and make this kind of weapon for me."

Zheng Ce points to the diamond-shaped sharp wooden stick.

Wei Ze widens his eyes:

"Ah?"

Then reacts:

"Yes."

Thinking about it, he says:

"Should we apply poison?"

Hiss... in the live stream room, Blue Star netizens gasp, and the barrage surges.

【The streamer is going to pit the Han army to death, if this is done, won't the Luoyue people take off?】

【Hahahaha, streamer, make something ruthless, let the ancient Huaxia people see the dimensionality reduction strike of Blue Star.】

【There are so many trees here, make some catapults, light them with fire oil and burn the mountains, even if the Han army attacks, they will be finished.】

【To be honest, this belongs to Blue Star technology's dimensionality reduction strike, that Han Dynasty is finished.】

【I have a blueprint for a wooden repeating crossbow, streamer, I'll private message you!】

【Han Dynasty: Bad, why did the Luoyue people take off?】

The Blue Star friends in the livestream, watching Wei Ze's flashy operations, began to jeer, and some even provided blueprints for wooden repeating crossbows.

Wei Ze also starts making trouble based on the various brain holes provided by the Blue Star friends in the live stream room.

According to the various brain holes provided by the Blue Star friends in the live stream room, he starts commanding the Luoyue people to frantically manufacture various "transcendent" weapons, and the popularity of the live stream room also soars because of this interaction.

And because it is not a combat plot, Wei Ze usually gives the order to manufacture something.

It can be skipped quickly, and after skipping, the finished product will be delivered to his eyes.

Even for making things like catapults, after quickly skipping the plot, several days passed in the game, and less than an hour passed in reality, which is equivalent to real-time feedback.

Naturally, there are more Blue Star friends squatting in the live stream room.

Wei Ze's status in Luoyue rises because of the various weapons he manufactured.

Just over a week.

Because no combat plot was triggered, he kept skipping, and Wei Ze had already skipped two years.

And the Zheng sisters had already captured three commanderies and sixty-five cities in Luoyue, directly declaring themselves Zheng Kings and establishing the Zheng Dynasty.

And it wasn't until this time that Wei Ze heard the news of the Han army attacking, complaining to the live stream room:

"The circulation of information in ancient times is slow."

"It's been two years of rebellion, and they have already declared themselves kings, and the Han Dynasty only sent troops now."

"Who knows when they will attack?"

The Blue Star friends in the live stream room also agree, and many are looking forward to the battle against the Han Dynasty.

After all, in the two years of this game plot, under the brain holes of Wei Ze and the Blue Star friends, many advanced weapons were manufactured, looking forward to the scene where these advanced weapons kill all sides.

After all, these weapons carry the expectations of the Blue Star friends, wanting to perform a dimensionality reduction strike on the Han army soldiers.

Wei Ze is still manufacturing weapons and skipping the plot.

However, the news of the Han army attacking quickly reached the capital of the Zheng Dynasty, and Wei Ze looks at the time in the game, clicking his tongue:

"Although the news travels slowly, the attack is quite fast."

Wei Ze wants to go to the front line to see, but the Zheng sisters have never agreed.

After all, Wei Ze is a treasure now, how can he take risks?

Seeing this, Wei Ze is helpless, he can't get out, so he can only accelerate skipping the plot and wait for news, wait for battle reports.

Have to say.

These weapons are still very useful. Facing the Han army, they did show amazing power at the beginning, but the Han general on the opposite side quickly changed his strategy, using rockets and fire attacks to counterattack.

The originally carefully trained elephant formation also panicked and attacked their own people because of the fire attack.

And the Han army attacked by land and water, pressing on the border from two directions.

For a time, the cities of the Zheng Dynasty were constantly lost, and people were panicked.

Zheng Dynasty capital.

Looking at the latest battle report, Wei Ze's brain is throbbing:

"No?!"

"Are these Luoyue people too weak?!"

"How did they lose half of their territory?!"

Three commanderies and sixty-five cities, lost half in less than half a year.

Almost every time after skipping the plot, the latest battle report is where it was lost and occupied by the Han army.

And it's not just that.

The weapons he led people to manufacture have even fallen into the hands of the Han army, turning around to crush them.

Not only Wei Ze is confused, but the Blue Star friends in the live stream room are also numb.

Are these ancient people too weak?

Unless you can hand-craft a machine gun, what can you use to save them?

The key is that you can't craft it...

Wei Ze wants to persuade the Zheng sisters to leave, and if it doesn't work, think of another way, but the Zheng sisters are crazy and want to fight the Han army to the end. Wei Ze can't persuade them no matter what.

And he can't leave here.

He can only watch the plot skip... skip... and then...

"Those who surrender will be spared!!!"

Outside the capital of the Zheng Dynasty, a loud shout from the Han envoy comes.

Wei Ze stands on the city wall, looking at the black-pressed Han army opposite. Compared with the elites of the Zheng Dynasty here,

They are just a grass-roots team. Originally thought they had developed well for two years.

But now seeing the Han army opposite, Wei Ze finally understands why they lost.

After all, it is the nation in the CG that will always stand on the Central Plains. Even if this barbarian land develops for two years, giving them advanced weapons is no match for that side; two years ago, they were still holding wooden sticks.

The Central Plains side has been fighting for many years just to compete for the world.

What is the achievement of occupying three commanderies here in two years? It hasn't even killed as many people as one war in the Central Plains.

Can't say the Luoyue people are too weak.

Can only say this is a dimensionality reduction strike from the Central Plains dynasty, no one can do anything about it.

Without too many words.

The battle between the two sides breaks out instantly. The Zheng sisters defend the city, and the Han army sees that they can't capture it for a long time, so they build high platforms, beating drums day and night to demonstrate, this kind of psychological warfare makes people in the city panic.

Wei Ze has no good way, this kind of ancient warfare, individual power is negligible.

The plot keeps skipping, and the situation worsens.

Until one night, Wei Ze, who had just chosen to skip the plot, heard sounds of killing everywhere.

He hurriedly rushed out of the house, but what caught his eyes was the fire that filled the sky.

The Han army had already killed their way in.

At this time, Luoyue people were fleeing everywhere in the city. Wei Ze put on his clothes and rushed out of the mansion, pulling a fleeing soldier:

"What's going on?"

"How did the Han army get in?!"

The Luoyue soldier hurriedly broke free and said:

"Last night we raided the Han army camp, and failed."

"The Han army has already killed their way in, run quickly!!!"

After saying this, he shook him off and ran away holding the package in his hand. This made Wei Ze's head buzz.

Raid?

Tens of thousands of elite troops, where did you get the confidence to raid?!

Damn!!!

Wei Ze wants to turn around and run to the mansion, but the sound of horse hooves in the distance speeds over, and before Wei Ze can resist, he is captured on a horse.

When he wakes up again.

He is already tied and kneeling on the ground, and around him are dense Zheng Dynasty officials kneeling.

Not far in front is the original "Zheng Qiao Hall," which was the palace of the Zheng Dynasty, but now it is the place where these Zheng Dynasty officials wait for death.

Wei Ze is still okay, just squeezed together with people.

Further ahead are individual Zheng Dynasty generals and tribal leaders; these vanguards who resisted the Han army are now tied up,

One by one, their necks are tied, and they are pushed like livestock to the high-hanging flag.

The red "Han" character on the flag is like a knife, making people fearful.

Stab!

Stab!

The Luoyue people pushed to the "Han" flag are cleanly beheaded.

A Luoyue general was just pushed to the flag, the executioner was preparing to execute, and the Luoyue general roared angrily:

"Han dogs!!!"

"Luoyue will never surrender!!!"

But the Han army executioner, covered in blood, sneered:

"You barbarians, are you worthy of being called kings?"

The big knife in his hand didn't stop at all, the knife fell.

Swish!

The head flew up.

The floor tiles in front of "Zheng Qiao Hall" were already dyed bright red with blood, and one general after another was beheaded.

Wei Ze, tied below, felt his scalp go numb, and finally felt a trace of fear. Even if he knew this was a game, this kind of pressure was still heart-pounding.

At this time.

There was a commotion outside the hall, and then an old man with white hair and beard, eyes like electricity, wearing armor, holding a sword in his left hand and a scroll in his right, led a group of Han army generals to step over the rolling heads outside "Zheng Qiao Hall" and walked to the top of the palace, turning to look at the Zheng Dynasty officials kneeling in the hall below.

For a time.

Only seeing the white-haired general raise his hand, in an instant, the world seemed to fall silent.

Wei Ze below couldn't help but be more careful with his breathing, and the Blue Star netizens in the live stream room were the same. This was a sense of oppression they had never felt before, even more so than the famous generals and high officials in WWII.

How could this be?

For the first time, he had a substantial concept of pressure.

Only seeing the white-haired general raise the bamboo scroll in his right hand, reading the edict of the Guangwu Emperor of the Han Dynasty:

"Those who resist the Han will be beheaded and their heads sent to warn others."

The voice was not loud, but it made the Luoyue people tremble all over:

"Jiaozhi is originally Han land; those who split the territory and call themselves kings must submit to the laws of the Great Han!"

After saying this, the white-haired general said coldly:

"Bring them up!"

At this time, a copper pillar was erected outside the hall, and the Zheng sisters were pushed under the copper pillar, but they stared dead at the white-haired general above. The Zheng sisters were covered in wounds, and the character "Rebel" was branded on their foreheads.

The white-haired general signaled the executioner to press the Zheng sisters to kneel under the copper pillar:

"Behead!"

Suddenly, Zheng Ce roared:

"Ma Yuan! You Han people are heartless! One day, the Yue people..."

Stab!

The head flew up.

Stab!

The heads of the Zheng sisters rolled to the ground, and the white-haired general, called Ma Yuan by Zheng Ce, sneered, then looked around, his voice indifferent:

"If the copper pillar breaks, Jiaozhi will be destroyed!"

"Everything north of this pillar is Han territory! Those who dare to cross the border will be treated like these two chiefs!"

After saying this, he waved his hand.

Countless Han army soldiers rushed out of the hall, pushing the Zheng Dynasty officials kneeling outside the hall one by one to the copper pillar, including Wei Ze, and with the fall of the knife, blood dyed the copper pillar red, and Wei Ze also experienced the feeling of being beheaded.

At the end of the screen.

It is the copper pillar scorched by the scorching sun, inserted deeply into the ground, and the Han army soldiers around constantly ramming the soil mixed with blood.

Swish!

The screen returns to the main interface.

Wei Ze rubs his face to sober up:

"This Han Dynasty is a bit domineering."

"I really experienced what it means to be domineering; that Ma Yuan, just standing there, makes people heart-pounding."

"Too scary."

"It's still the Central Plains dynasty; it's a bit difficult to develop if you choose an alien race."

"This Ma Yuan wasn't seen in the 【Great Han】 database on the Polar Star official website."

"So powerful, he should be a famous general."

"Or is it that it hasn't been updated?"

Just as he is speaking.

A prompt pops up on the game's main interface.

【Book of the Later Han: First month. Beheaded Zheng Ce, Zheng Er, sent heads to Luo Yang. Enfeoffed Yuan as Marquis of Xinxi, with three thousand households.】

Wei Ze widens his eyes:

"What is this? An Easter egg?"

"Beheaded Zheng Ce, Zheng Er, sent heads to Luo Yang, is that it?"

"What level is Marquis of Xinxi and three thousand households, does anyone know?"

However.

The Blue Star friends can only learn information from the Polar Star official website or major streamers. The streamers don't know, so these Blue Star friends naturally don't know either. However, because of this plot.

In the poll released by the Polar Star official website at this time, 【Great Han Dynasty】 is among the best.

Because considering that the history of five thousand years is too long, only one dynasty can be opened at a time, and these streamers are randomly assigned to any dynasty, so Blue Star players can choose a dynasty they want to experience based on different dynasties and different plots, and vote.

【Warring States】, 【Qi State】, 【Chu State】, 【Qin State】... 【Great Han Dynasty】... etc., because of the plot on Wei Ze's side, 【Great Han Dynasty】 can basically lock in the victory.

Mainly because the 【Great Han Dynasty】 is too domineering.

Making these Blue Star players who have nothing to do want to invade them.

And Ma Yuan's sentence:

"If the copper pillar breaks, Jiaozhi will be destroyed!"

Directly opened a new world for Blue Star people. Can seven characters be so domineering?

They all want to choose the Han Dynasty to experience a different life.

And this plot of Wei Ze's was also topped to the top of the player forum post list.

On the other side.

Polar Star Company.

After half a month of streamer trial play, the players' emotions have been pulled to the extreme, just waiting for the game to go online.

Zhao Ming looks at the database background, flipping through the registration information.

"World War II: Rise of the Empire" is a war game, so it has limitations. Even with the promotion of the Federation official, the effect has dropped now.

After all, those who are interested noticed it before, and naturally downloaded it after promotion.

Those who are not interested won't download it even if it is promoted all day.

So the registration volume of Polar Star app and Polar Star platform has been a slow growth trend.

Until this half month, it has been growing in a straight line.

In just over ten days, the number of registered users has increased by more than 20 million. Currently, the registration volume of Polar Star app is approaching 100 million, all of which are active users, and many are new young players.

Click, click, click, the familiar sound of high heels comes, and Shen Qinghan pushes the door and walks in.

Zhao Ming leans back in his boss chair, his expression a bit helpless as he looks at Shen Qinghan:

"Doesn't your company have anything to do?"

"Why do you run to me all day?"

Shen Qinghan rolls her eyes at Zhao Ming:

"You think I want to?"

"Look at this."

Saying this, she hands over a document.

Zhao Ming flips it open and takes a look, instantly happy:

"So many copies?"

Only to see in the document are the latest game concepts and news released by major companies.

Most are history-related.

As for the content... basically there are all types.

Shen Qinghan rubs her temples:

"When will the game here go online?"

"The fast-acting trial version has already been made."

"The explosion of 【Huaxia History Series】 was also unexpected by other companies."

"So after discovering the potential of history-themed games."

"They have launched history-themed games one after another."

"And some even directly brought out Blue Star's history."

Zhao Ming's expression is strange:

"Doesn't Blue Star have no history?"

Didn't it all get smashed by the meteor shower?

Shen Qinghan says helplessly:

"It's not that there is none, it's basically incomplete, just knowing a rough year."

"But it can't be helped, this is local history."

"Now that the photon supercomputer is so powerful, just throw it into the photon supercomputer to make a set of fake history to play with."

"Some manufacturers have this idea."

"So we have to face the pressure of competition with Blue Star's local history. When will 【Huaxia History Series】 go online?"

After listening.

Zhao Ming smiles and says:

"It's okay."

"Then let's make it 7 days."

"As for this photon supercomputer, you don't have to worry."

"Without people framing it all the time, the photon supercomputer can deduce historical stories into quantum stories, and we still have advantages."

"The voting results have also come out."

"First release the immersive plot of 【Great Han Dynasty】."

Currently, 【WWII】 side has entered a flat period, just in time to promote the new game. By the time 【Battle of Kursk】 starts there, this side will be about the same.

Shen Qinghan has no opinion and nods.

Zhao Ming also starts editing the announcement on the computer.

Soon.

A countdown of less than 24 hours appears on the Polar Star official website, and the new game announcement also appears in the live stream rooms of major streamers.

Wei Ze looks at the announcement:

【1. About to launch 【Huaxia History Series】 game plot mode 【Chu-Han Contention】.】

【2. The time point of 【Chu-Han Contention】 plot is before the establishment of the Han Dynasty. In the vast land, who dominates? The domineering Han Dynasty must have left a deep impression on players. Since it is before the establishment of the Han Dynasty, can the Han be reversed to Chu?】

【3. 【Chu-Han Contention】 is 【Immersive Plot】 mode and 【Multiplayer Online】 mode. 【Multiplayer Online】 mode, each game accommodates 500,000 people, with limited identities. 【Immersive Plot】 mode, single-player start, unlimited identities.】

【4. According to the plot advancement of 【Multiplayer Online】 mode, 【National War Dungeons】 such as 【Battle of Julu】, 【Battle of Sanqin】, etc., will be opened irregularly.】

【5. Open 【Chu-Han Famous Generals Record】, players can contact famous generals in the game, collect information...】

"Hiss—"

"Chu-Han Contention? Directly open to before the establishment of the Han Dynasty?"

"Brothers, should we choose Chu?"

"What if I win the contention!" ===== CHAPTER 143 =====

"Brothers, should we choose Chu?"

"What if I win the hegemony!"
