Chapter 132: Battle of Zhuolu (Part 6)

It was already 4 PM when Ouyang Shuo came out of the tribe palace. As he was thinking about the progress of the camp, Ouyang Shuo did not stay in Yellow Emperor City.When he went back to the camp, the camp had already undergone a big change.

With the combined efforts of 2000 men, the wooden wall of the camp had been completed. On top of the wall, there were soldiers patrolling and making rounds. At the 4 corners of the camp were arrow towers. Apart from that, at the main gate of the camp, which was at the east gate, were two arrow towers. At the front, there were two rows of horses.When the camp guards saw Ouyang Shuo, they bowed. Seeing that, Ouyang Shuo smiled and replied in kind, making the soldiers feel a little warm inside.

Walking into the camp, tents one after another were placed neatly in rows, separated into different camp areas. Between each area, the drains were already dug.

Ouyang Shuo passed his horse to Wang Feng, and walked alone into the central big tent.In the big tent sat 20 odd players, seeming a little cramped. Seeing Ouyang Shuo walk in, they all stood up to greet him. Ouyang Shuo smiled, nodded, and replied to each and every one of them. He also didn't forget to greet Bai Hua and Feng Qiuhuang.

Bai Hua helped get Ouyang Shuo out of the situation and smiled. "Wuyi, let me introduce you to the 20 players. They were chosen by Feng Wu and me. They agreed that in the final battle, their troops will be led by us."

Ouyang Shuo was stunned and immediately understood Bai Hua's words. These players still had their qualms and weren't like Feng Qiuhuang, who was willing to openly cooperate with the Shanhai Alliance. These people only wanted to borrow his status as the representative to obtain the initiative in battle. Only in the final battle would they follow his orders. Before that, everyone would do their own thing, and even their camps wouldn't be all in the same place.

Ouyang Shuo kept silent, as it seemed like his prior estimation was too positive. China had a saying that in china, 1/4 were dragons while the rest were bugs. Although these words were insulting, they also reflected that Chinese people wanted to be heroes and fought for their own benefits.

From this, one could see that only the alliance members were trustworthy. After this battle, a meeting should be called to accept Fallen Phoenix town into Shanhai Town. Since her attitude was so resolute, Ouyang Shuo had no reason to refuse such a strong ally.

After understanding their motives, Ouyang Shuo treated them impatiently and said, "Welcome to the Shanhai Alliance, as for the details, we will discuss them next time."

Ouyang Shuo's change in attitude was felt by all the people. Some of them looked embarrassed and some acted like they didn't care, so there were various reactions. Luckily it was already late, so after seeing Ouyang Shuo, they all said goodbye and left.

After sending off all these players, Ouyang Shuo returned back to the tent, gathered the 4 in the alliance, and easily opened a meeting. Everyone reported and discussed the matters that they had on hand.

Feng Qiuhuang did a summary of the twenty players and said, "Each of those players has 1-200 strong forces, and their overall force is 3500 men, mainly sword shield soldiers and bowmen. The specific numbers, I have just calculated. 2300 sword shield soldiers, 700 bowmen and 500 cavalry. Adding in our own original force, we now have 3000 sword shield soldiers, 1500 bowmen and crossbowmen, and 1000 cavalry for a total of 5500 people, taking up the majority of Yellow Emperor's camp forces."

Ouyang Shuo nodded. He didn't feel any delight and laughed bitterly."Such a small number of forces split into 20 hands. When the time comes, whether we can form a collective power is a huge question mark. These people might agree now, but once changes happen in the battlefield, they might change and desert us. The way I see it, the 2000 of us must form a collective power. As for the players that have thrown themselves to us, we must evaluate them and allow only those that are reliable to join our forces."
