Chapter 269: Trap

Counting this batch of population, Su Lun has rescued about 40,000 people in the Northland provinces during this time, and if all the population is transported back, the population of Zhenbei City will directly exceed 60,000.

However, there are also a lot of problems that have arisen, the most obvious is that the housing in Zhenbei City is tight, but fortunately, when Su Lun built the city, a lot of housing was built, and now it can barely be squeezed. If 100,000 people were to migrate from the Northland provinces according to Su Lun's idea, Zhenbei City would definitely not be able to live in it.

He is naturally unwilling to let Su Lun give up continuing to migrate the population now, and it will be difficult to obtain a large number of people in the future if this kind of God-given opportunity is missed, so even if he knows that this kind of housing is not enough, Su Lun still does not stop migrating people.

Fortunately, it is now known that the lack of housing will let those people build as soon as possible, and now the population of Zhenbei City has skyrocketed, the labor force is very abundant, and it is not a big problem to build some housing, and another thing that makes Su Lun a little irritable is that the large-scale migration of the population has lowered the morale of the people in the city a lot.

In the system interface, the people's hearts in Zhenbei City have been above ninety, and sometimes they even reach the full value of one hundred, and there are many buildings in Zhenbei City to increase people's hearts, but people's hearts are not static. Fortunately, the lord's castle in Zhenbei City has the effect of people's hearts being attached, and as long as you live in Zhenbei City for a period of time, people's hearts will rise.

In the north of the town, although the effect of some buildings seems to be of little use, the effect they have is very amazing, such as the problem of people's hearts, Su Lun didn't pay much attention to it before, but he only noticed it after subduing those gray dwarves.

He knew the original character of the gray dwarf, selfish, sinister and cunning, but the gray dwarf in Zhenbei City was slowly changing, although he was still selfish, insidious and cunning, but he seemed more like a hill dwarf in terms of loyalty to Zhenbei City.

This subtle ability made Su Lun smack his tongue a little, and there were those half-elves, these half-elves now also regarded Zhenbei City as their home, instead of feeling that they were temporarily living like before.

The population of Zhenbei City has increased, and the current city scale has become a little crowded, on the system panel of Sulun, the upper limit of the population of Zhenbei City in the upper limit column is 50,000, and now the population has broken through the upper limit, so the third phase of the expansion of Zhenbei City also needs to begin.

The scope of this expansion of Zhenbei City will be larger, from the original medium-sized city to a large city. Suren did leave the area to expand when it was originally designed, but he didn't expect that it would take only one year for the city to develop to this point.

In the north of the town, although the arrival of a large number of people made the city a little chaotic for a while, but it was quickly adjusted, and the school in the north of the town trained a large number of grassroots officials, although these officials are not rich in knowledge, but they are very familiar with various systems, and they are much more serious and responsible than the grassroots officials of other human kingdoms in the same era, and their abilities are also above the level.

After some chaos, the city was back to normal, and the newly arrived homeless slaves began to work in groups according to the previous process of the northern part of the town, and because of the large number of people, Chrissy also transferred 3,000 people to Mirror Lake City, which now has a population of 5,000 people, and worked under the leadership of local officials.

At the same time, a large number of displaced people outside Zhenbei City began to reclaim farmland, and after learning that Zhenbei City's point system could obtain land, these displaced people obviously wanted land.

Just when the construction of Zhenbei City was in full swing, Su Lun sent the remaining population of the Blackstone Fortress to escort them to Zhenbei City, and then began to look for targets again.

The five thousand wolf cavalry of the orcs is still a little troublesome, these wolf cavalry must be fast and have a keen sense of smell, if it is the army of Zhenbei City against them, Su Lun is naturally not afraid, but if the army of Zhenbei City leads a large number of homeless slaves, the situation will not be easy.

The wolf cavalry came and went like the wind, although the frontal strength could not defeat the army of Zhenbei City, but most of the army in Zhenbei City were infantry, except for the centaurs, other soldiers could not catch up with them at all. It would be very annoying if these wolf cavalry were stuck to the dog's skin plaster, which is why Su Lun had sneaked up on those baggage teams before, in order to attract the attention of these wolf cavalrymen.

The scouts continued to scout, and after a few lessons, the orcs added to their staff, and Suren had yet to find a suitable target.

His target is not these baggage teams, but the camp where the orcs hold humans, and now the orc camps have become very cautious, and the difficulty of reconnaissance has increased a lot, not all of these camps have human slaves, some are wounded soldiers of the orcs, some are hoarded weapons or various siege equipment crafted, and some are hoarded food.

Suren had no interest in these camps at all, and for another reason, if Suren made too much trouble, the orc army in front would definitely send a large number of men to exterminate him, and his plans to move the population would be greatly affected at that time.

After the expansion of the orc transport team, there are already three thousand people, so many manpower, even if Su Lun attacks with the army of Zhenbei City, he will not be able to swallow it for a while, and after a long time, it will definitely attract a large number of orcs to besiege, so Su Lun still follows the old routine and sends a part of his men to make a feint to attract reinforcements from the orcs, and then he will attack the camp with human slaves.

To put it bluntly, this tactic is to play a time difference, and with the Harpy and the strategic map in hand, this kind of operation is not difficult. But something doesn't seem right today.

"Has the Harpy sent out on patrol returned?"

A guard came to Su Lun's side: "My lord, the orc's baggage team has arrived, are we going according to plan?" ”

"Attack, but be careful, remember it's a feint. Su Lun thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

The army of Zhenbei City was divided into three parts by Sulun, one was responsible for guarding the outcast slaves for migration, one was responsible for feints against the baggage team, and some was used to attack the actual target orc camp.

Among them, the feint team was mainly centaur cavalry, and when Suren decided to move the population on a large scale, he had already issued a conscription order to the little mare Misheen, and once again recruited four hundred centaur cavalry, this time recruiting light cavalry, and it was the little mare Misheen himself who led the team.

I haven't seen her for a while, but the little mare looks more mature, and has a little more of the aura of a superior person, and as the patriarch of the centaur clan, she is quite busy now.

"Misheen, don't rush too hard when attacking, just shoot with a bow and arrow. Suren said as he found the little mare.

The hatred between centaurs and orcs, Suren feared that they would directly storm these baggage teams, and then the losses would be great.

"I see!" Misheen nodded.

Soon the centaurs began to attack, and the orc baggage team reacted very quickly, and when they found that they were ambushed, they immediately defended in place, and lit wolf smoke in the team.

It seemed that everything was going in the direction designed by Su Lun, and at this time, a prompt suddenly came from the system:

"Harpy is attacked, Harpy is dead!"

"It's not good, it's a trap!" At the moment when the harpy in charge of reconnaissance was killed, Su Lun reacted instantly, and the orcs knew that he was using the harpy to investigate, so why did they still do it the way before, it was clearly a trap.

"Retreat! Give Mishien a signal to retreat immediately!" Suren ordered decisively.

"Yes!" one of the heralds got on his horse and immediately ran towards the centaur. The other soldiers, at Suren's request, also gave up attacking the orc camp and began to retreat.

The little mare Misheen did not hesitate at all after receiving the order, and directly took the centaur to change direction and retreat directly.

"Your Excellency Suren, what's wrong?" Misheen asked with some confusion as he returned here.

"This is a trap, let's retreat first!" Su Lun explained, and then directly ordered a retreat.

It's just clear that by this time it's too late to retreat.

Just after Su Lun gave the order, the baggage teams in the distance suddenly changed their appearance, only to see those baggage teams lift the tents on the car, and the vehicles were not stacked with food and materials, but groups of wolves. The baggage team in front of him was all composed of a wolf cavalry.

More than 3,000 wolf cavalry quickly got ready, took up arms, and began to roam around on a wolf horse, these wolf cavalry were clearly well aware that their mission was to entangle this army, and at the same time, a large number of red dots began to appear on Suren's strategic map.

Judging from the map, the orc army had surrounded Suren's army on all sides.

"I really didn't expect it, I was hunting geese all day long, but this time I was pecked by geese and ambushed by orcs. Su Lun's face was a little ugly.

Looking up at the sky, there are more than a dozen black spots in the sky that are rapidly approaching, and when he got closer, Su Lun found that there were two-legged flying dragons flying in the sky, and when he saw these two-legged flying dragons, he finally understood, although the harpy banshee could fly, there was obviously a big gap in the face of the bipedal flying dragon. Not only the combat power, but also the flight speed was crushed by the bipedal wyvern. The Harpy can't fly as fast as a Wyvern.

In order to exterminate him, the orcs have already transferred the Wyvern Knight from the front line.

There are bipedal flying dragons, and the movements of the army in Zhenbei City are naturally clear to those orcs.

"The battle these orcs have prepared for us is quite large. Su Lun looked at those two-legged dragon knights, although they were surrounded on all sides, Su Lun could not see the slightest tension on his face.

"Do you really think you can win?" Su Lun sneered: "Order, all soldiers launch a surprise attack on the orc wolf cavalry, we will kill them directly this time!"

"Traps do work, but be careful, there's a good chance you'll catch a dragon!"
