"The one who owns the three cities in the south is the number one lord in the world. I just want to farm well?"

Catherine's cavalry captured a group of defeated warriors alive in the south. They claimed to be the subordinates of a Japanese lord named Takeda Tadayoshi, and provided an important piece of information.

Ekaterina took a look at the rankings.

It has been 31 days since the start of the National War.

The first place is Ekaterina, Lord of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, with 5949 points (1900 city output, 513 village output, and 3536 battle gains).

The second place is Kshatriya, the lord of the Mughal Empire, with 5765 points.

Third place: Jiujiang Laoqin, Lord of the Eastern Han Dynasty, with 5356 points

Fourth place: Lord of the Eastern Han Dynasty, I just want to farm well, with 5200 points.

Fifth place, the last Roman in the Roman lords, with 5199 points.

In sixth place, the French Lord Never Surrenders, with 4905 points.

The seventh place is the Eastern Han lord and the late Ming border soldier, with 4856 points.

Eighth place, commander of the immortal army of the Persian lord...

"The lords of the Mughal Empire are almost catching up with me. Occupying cities is the most effective way to increase points."

Ekaterina calculated it.

After a small-scale battle, killing or capturing 10,000 elite soldiers will earn about 1,000 points. However, if you occupy a city and continue to occupy it for 10 days, you will get 300 points.

She has three cities. If you occupy one city for 30 days, you will get 900 points. If you occupy one city for 24 days, you will get 600 points. If you occupy one city for 12 days, you will get 300 points.

The battle in the early stage is very important, but in the later stage, the output of the city is even more important.

Occupying a city for three months can yield 2,700 points.

If she wants to maintain her number one position, she can only choose to occupy more cities.

Cities are also an important source of military strength.

"The lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty are really powerful. Three of the top ten are lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Chu Zimou, I, Catherine, accepted your three cities without any courtesy."

After Chutian captured three cities, he temporarily stopped expanding because he found that his situation was not good.

His current points are 5200 (city output is 1500, village output is 416, and battle gains are 3284).

If a city is occupied for 30 days, it will get 900 points. The other two cities will be occupied for less than 20 days, and they will get 300 points each.

If you want to become number one in the world, there are only two ways - to destroy the enemy and capture the town.

You can get a lot of points by killing enemies at once, and you can get points continuously by occupying cities.

Chutian's embarrassment is that he is caught in the middle of the big forces.

To the west is the woods (difficult to march), to the south is the valley (unknown area), to the north is the lord Ekaterina of the Grand Duchy of Moscow (three cities), to the east is the Anti-Eastern Han Alliance (seven cities) and the besieged Eastern Han lord Huma

(a city).

Chutian only had three cities in his hands, so whether he was expanding to the north or east, there was great resistance.

Chu Tian planned to go immediately to join Huma's Lian Po Army...

"If I go east to support Huma, whether I can defeat the anti-Eastern Han alliance is another matter. Yekaterina will definitely go south and seize three cities."

Chutian points to Catherine's forces in the north on a simple map.

Fang Xuanling and Zhao Long both frowned.

Chutian's situation is indeed quite difficult.

Huma was besieged, and as the lord of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he had to save him.

Chutian brought the troops of three cities to rescue, but it may not be possible to defeat the troops of the seven cities of the Anti-Eastern Han Dynasty Alliance.

Once he had a stalemate with the Kshatriyas, Chutian's home was stolen by Ekaterina.

"perhaps……"

Fang Xuanling seemed to have an idea.

"The military advisor said it doesn't matter."

"The Kshatriya Alliance has seven cities, and its power is getting bigger and bigger. Once we are defeated, this alien lord named Lina will also be affected. My lord can try to unite with her, defeat the powerful enemy first, and then fight to the death."

"United with Catherine?"

Chu Tian and Zhao Long never thought of such a way.

As lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty, their thinking was fixed on relying on their own strength to destroy the anti-Eastern Han Dynasty alliance.

But now it seems that Fang Xuanling's strategy of uniting the Grand Duchy of Moscow and establishing close ties and establishing close ties is not a bad idea.

"I have three cities, Catherine has three cities, and Huma has one city. There are seven cities in total. They can indeed compete with the Kshatriya's seven cities."

Chutian could only simply use the number of cities to infer the strength comparison between the two sides.

"But it's hard to say whether Catherine is willing to join forces with us. She can sit back and watch us be wiped out, and then send troops to occupy my three cities. She will have six cities, and the Kshatriyas will destroy Humas and eight.

A city. She still has the ability to fight the Kshatriyas decisively."

Chutian had no experience in joining forces with lords outside the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Despite this, Chutian still sent someone to send a message to Catherine, requesting that they join forces to deal with the Kshatriyas, the lords of the Mughal Empire.

If Catherine is willing to join forces, the possibility of defeating the Kshatriyas is very high.

If she is unwilling to join forces, Chu Tian can only take risks.

In order to save Huma, who was also a lord of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhao Long had to put aside his hatred with Catherine.

Envoys from the Eastern Han Dynasty came to Yekaterina's camp, which was preparing to go south, and informed Chu Tian of their desire to unite.

"I just want to farm well. No, it should be Chu Zimou. He actually wants to join forces with me? Anti-Eastern Han Alliance..."

Yekaterina learned of Chutian's request and understood why the Kshatriyas, the lords of the Mughal Empire, ranked second in points and had a faint tendency to surpass her.

The Kshatriyas gained a lot of benefits from the alliance. They occupied four cities by themselves, and only three cities belonged to other lords.

"I want to negotiate with your lord face to face."

Catherine said to the envoy.

After the Eastern Han envoys left, Catherine led her army southward!

She has 8,000 Cossack cavalry, 25,000 servants, and 30,000 low-level soldiers recruited during the national war, a total of 60,000 troops!

The 60,000-strong army almost followed the Eastern Han envoys into Chutian's sphere of influence, so that when Chutian learned of Catherine's reply, her army had already arrived.

Chutian gathered 12,000 Eastern Han troops, 19,000 servants, and 15,000 low-level soldiers to fight.

The two sides faced each other on the plain.

"Count Catherine invites you to talk between the two armies."

Ekaterinlin sent an envoy.

Hua Mulan grabbed the corner of Chu Tian's clothes: "My lord, you can't go. What if she is a bad woman and sends an assassin to attack you..."

Chu Tian frowned. There was no doubt that these novel words were taught to Hua Mulan by Xia Liang.

It seems that I need to teach her a lesson when I get back, so that I can't lead Hua Mulan astray.

"Behind me are 40,000 to 50,000 troops. She dare not touch me, just as I dare not touch her."

Chu Tian took Xue Rengui and Li Guang to negotiate. Yekaterina would have to send at least several hundred people to kill Chu Tian.

"There is something I need your help with..."

Chu Tian secretly arranged something for Hua Mulan.

On that day, a great lord from the East and a West met in front of both camps, each carrying more than a dozen guards.

The combined number of troops on both sides exceeds 100,000, and both of them are capable of commanding an elite army of servants.

If two people fight head-on, both sides will suffer losses and the lords of the Mughal Empire will benefit.

This forms the basis for negotiations.

It was not the first time for Chu Tian to see a foreign lord, but it was the first time for him to deal with a female lord of the Grand Duchy of Moscow.

Ekaterina wears a bicorn hat, a diagonal ribbon and a corset, which outlines her beautiful figure. She looks like a European officer in the musket era, which is very different from Eastern female generals such as Hua Mulan and Li Xiuning.

Behind Catherine was the 60,000-strong army she brought, including the Cossack cavalry, one of the best light cavalry in the world.

Tsarist Russia used the Cossack cavalry to expand and occupied Siberia.

Ekaterina was also sizing up the world's number one lord. Apart from his oriental handsomeness, he didn't seem to have anything special. He didn't look like a tycoon.

"You want me to help you?"

"It's not about begging, it's about mutually beneficial cooperation."

"How to say?"

"The great lord Kshatriya of the Mughal Empire is about to replace you as the number one. If the alliance led by him destroys our lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty, do you think they will let you go? By then, he will use more than eight cities to deal with you.
To be continued...
