Chapter 199: The Battle of Muye (1)

The system announcement was made right on time on the 14th of August at 9 AM in the morning.

"System announcement: In the year 1044 BC, the Shang army main force is still far away in the east, causing the lack of army garrisoned in Zhao Ge. King Wu of Zhou used up whatever resources he had to raise an army. Then, he led his army crossing the Yellow River at Meng Jin early and joined his allies. Together, they declared war against the ruthless Emperor of Shang, Di Xin. They charged straight into Muye, and the battle ended with the defeat of Di Xin and his death. The second epic battle map―Battle of Muye, officially begins!"

Ouyang Shuo's current title was first class earl, which granted him the authorization to bring 3,000 men with him.

The expedition troops are as follows:

1. The Vanguard Unit's first and second squadron.

2. Mixed Regiment first, second, and third unit.

3. Elite guards of the Lord.

4. Qiushui Town's fourth cavalry squadron.

Other than the two heavy infantry unit of the Mixed Regiment, the other 2000 were all cavalries riding Qingfu warhorses.

The Vanguard Unit first unit and the elite guards were the real heavy cavalries, all equipped with Mingguang armor, Tang swords, pikes and composite bows. With this equipment and their stats, they were currently the best heavy cavalry regiment in the world. As for the heavy infantry unit, with the full efforts of the Armory Division, all of them were now equipped with Buren armors, Tang swords, and shields.

After he checked and confirmed the conditions of participating in the campaign and the number of his troops, Ouyang Shuo began to decide the faction he wanted to join in the war.

"System notification: Battle of Muye has two factions: Zhou Faction or Shang Faction, please choose your faction! Special reminder: If you choose the faction that supposedly lost in the battle and lead them to victory, you will be granted extraordinary rewards, so please choose wisely!"

"Shang Faction!"

"System notification: Faction selected!"

"System notification: Congratulations to player Qiyue Wuyi for starting the teleportation, 3000 men to be teleported. 3000 gold is automatically deducted from the inventory."

"System notification: Teleportation commencing!"

After a brief moment of extreme head spinning, Ouyang Shuo and his army appeared in the Shang main camp.

"System notification: Welcome player Qiyue Wuyi to the main camp―Zhao Ge, the capital of Shang dynasty."

As compared to the crude and simple of Huang Di City in the Battle of Zhuolu, Zhao Ge appeared to be a very prosperous city. The treatment the players received was completely different from the Battle of Zhuolu.

After registering in the city, players and their armies were moved to a big camp allocated outside of the city. The camp is specially set up for players and food is supplied to the players. As such, they did not need to prepare any food at all.

"Woodsy!"

Ouyang Shuo turned upon hearing the shout. To his pleasant surprise, he saw a pretty girl dressed in adventurer attire. She looked valiant and cheerful. The girl was waving at Ouyang Shuo with a look of excitement when she shouted out to him.

In the game, there was only one girl who could call Ouyang Shuo by the nickname of 'Woodsy' and this one and only girl was Song Jia.

This was the first time that Ouyang Shuo had seen Song Jia in the game. He never imagined that Song Jia's eyesight was so amazing, being able to recognize him in this extreme crowd.
