Chapter 526
The Great Elder of the Elephant Clan was shocked when he heard this, these days, he had heard enough of this kind of miserable panic and despair. Even, such a voice had already made the Great Elder particularly sensitive, and he felt creepy when he heard it. Unexpectedly, the remnants of the defeated generals all the way have come here, and they haven't been able to get rid of such a voice.
Following the sound, they saw a gray-faced and depressed warrior running back quickly from a distance in front of them. The Great Elder recognized the person who came, it was the elephant warrior he had once praised, who had been ordered by him earlier to explore the way ahead.
I saw this elephant warrior running back quickly, but he didn't know what stimulation he was in, he didn't have the fighting spirit and vitality that a warrior should have, as if he had lost hope in life, he knelt down in front of the elephant elder, with a depressed and weak expression, grabbed the hem of the elder's shirt, and cried and shouted: "Ashes, ashes...... Woo-woo, our stockade was reduced to ashes. β
These words made the remnants of the army, who were already frightened by the tragic voice of the warriors, instantly feel as if they were told that the sky was about to fall, and their faces were like ashes.
"Tell me, what's going on?" the big leader was so anxious and irritated by the warrior's mournful face that he couldn't wait for the warrior to grieve in front of him, so he couldn't help but step forward and kick the weeping clansman, urging him to tell him the details quickly.
"Our home, gone. The warrior clutched the wounded part, but did not complain at all, for he was already immersed in the tragic news that had come out of his own mouth.
For a moment, there was a panic in the team.
"I don't believe it!" the big leader sprinted forward, trying to rush up the hill. Check for yourself if this news is true.
The Great Elder of the Elephant Clan, who was also grief-stricken. The movements are not so agile though. But he also hurriedly asked the clansmen beside him to support him, followed the big leader, and walked up a hill.
When they looked from a distance on the hillside, they really found that their originally peaceful and beautiful elephant village had disappeared from the horizon as if by magic! If it weren't for the fact that the original location of the elephant village had been replaced by piles of charred wreckage and gray-black charcoal. They even wonder if they're back in the wrong place!
The eyes of the Grand Elder of the Elephant Clan had turned blood-red, as if they were red by the black smoke that was still rising upwards in the distance. But at this time, he couldn't say a word, his eyes were split, and he stared at the messy scene in the distance, still unable to believe that his home had become like this!
"Who?!!!" the big boss roared hoarsely.
The Great Elder of the Elephant Clan heard the voice of the Great Leader in his ears, but it was as if he couldn't hear it. However. In the Great Elder's mind, he was guessing repeatedly. Who did all this--The Great Elder's first reaction, maybe this was not done by the people of Xinghua Kingdom, but a certain fierce tribe that took advantage of their expedition to sneak attack Dazhai.
fell into several ideological struggles, making the Great Elder of the Elephant Clan seem to be several years older in an instant, and his voice has begun to be a little hoarse. I only heard him hang his head and say to the clansmen beside him in a heavy tone: "You go and find the survivors, there must be someone alive." β
"Ah, Great Elder......"
Unexpectedly, the people around the Great Elder, as soon as the Elder's words fell, instead of immediately carrying out the Elder's order, they let out an exclamation!
It turned out that after the Great Elder of the Elephant Clan finished speaking, he fainted immediately because his spirit couldn't stand it!
It's no wonder that the Great Elder of the Elephant Clan is not young, and he has been fleeing non-stop in the past few days, avoiding the pursuit of Xinghua Kingdom, and his mental and physical burden has reached the brink of collapse.
Frightened, the remnants of the elephant clan around the Great Elder hurriedly supported him so that he would not fall to the ground, and helped him to the side so that he could regain his breath.
Someone took care of the Great Elder, and the Great Leader divided his pleasure, and according to the instructions of the Great Elder, sent most of the clansmen to check the scene of Dazhai, and most importantly, tried to find the survivors.
However, the reality told them that the elephant village was not only burned to ashes by the fire, but even the fruit grove outside the village was not spared, and most of them were also affected by the deadly fire and burned a lot.
At this moment, the people of the elephant clan could not recover from this bad news for a long time.
Two hours later, the Grand Elder of the Elephant Clan finally slowly woke up. He struggled several times, and finally opened his eyes, as if unable to adapt to the stimulation of the sudden collision with the sun, he still half-squinted, but his head swung a few times, and when he saw the big leader, he immediately asked, "Have you found out?"
The big leader still had a sad face, and his mouth moved a few times, as if he had to rely on his hard work to squeeze out his voice, and said heavily: "There is a group of barbarian knights who have attacked our stockade, they have slaughtered our young Zhuang people, robbed us of our wealth, and burned down our houses, they are going to cut off the roots of our elephant clan. β
Every word was like a pile, pounding heavily on the Great Elder's heart, and he couldn't help but close his eyes again, for fear that others would notice his almost uncontrollable sourness.
According to the description of the Great Leader, this terrible thought suddenly flashed through the Great Elder's mind, and it should be said that in fact, he only thought of this!
Who the hell is doing this? This is basically to uproot them, to make their people disappear into this world forever, if they don't just go out to fight, does it mean that they will also become that pile of white bones without exception?
If it weren't for the people who had a deep hatred with them, they wouldn't have acted so thoroughly and without reservation?
The Great Elder felt that today's sunlight seemed to be particularly dazzling, and he didn't even want to wake up and hear such bad news that made him disheartened. Knight, Barbarian Knight, which one?
"Are there any survivors?" the Great Elder asked, already filled with grief in his heart at this time.
"There are more than a dozen clansmen, and they are lucky not to be in the stockade. Escaped. The big boss said.
"What do they know?" the Grand Elder asked.
"The people who attacked us. They were covered in armor. The weapons are sharp, and he looks rich, not like the barbarians around him. The big boss said.
Hearing this, the Great Elder smiled bitterly and said, "I know who it is. β
"Great Elder, who is it?" said the Grand Leader angrily. According to the survivors, their loved ones should all be dead, and only a few remain. Become a slave transporting loot.
"Who else? If we go and beat them, they will come back with revenge...... If I had known!" The Great Elder of the Elephant Clan looked remorseful. He hated that he didn't understand the reality of the enemy, so he dared to lead his troops to attack the Xinghua people, which was God's punishment for his self-righteousness.
The big leader also heard this, and he stood up, his eyes widened, and he wanted to leave, but his feet seemed to take root, and he could not leave.
The elders are not young and have insight into people's hearts. I knew that my big boss was scared. However, he did not criticize the big boss for his actions. Because he also has fear.
"Duty... Urgent. Want... Preserve the blood of the Loxodons. "The words spoken by the Great Elder were a little stumbling and unfavorable.
The chief had no opinion, and when he saw the elder speak, he listened to him quietly.
"You take the rest of the clan and go farther south, where there is the kingdom of our barbarians, survive first......" The Great Elder of the Elephant Clan's voice became quieter and quieter.
"Great Elder!" the Grand Elder exclaimed, thinking that the Great Elder had fainted again.
"Great Chief, Great Elder is gone. One of the retinues beside the Great Elder wept.
The big leader was stunned, listened to the cries of the crowd, was silent for a while, and said, "Let's go to the south." β
The Tiger Legion of the Xinghua Army, under the leadership of Huyi and Qin Wushuang, successively conquered the barbarian tribes, looting a lot of people and a lot of money. In just a few days, the Tiger Legion was famous in the wilderness, and some weak barbarian tribes took the initiative to contact the Tiger Legion and were willing to provide warriors.
This gave Qin Wushuang, the overseer of the Xinghua Army's Tiger Legion, a deep understanding of the barbarians' habit of obeying the strong. However, Qin Wushuang was worried that the barbarians would pretend to surrender and refused to send warriors from the small tribe to follow. Just tell these small tribes that they are welcome in the Nanban City of the Xinghua Empire. If you want to join the Tiger Legion of the Xinghua Army, you need to go to Nanban City to take the assessment before you can join the Tiger Legion.
In this expedition, the Tiger Legion exterminated eleven tribes, captured 2,000 slaves, and was responsible for transporting the spoils of the Xinghua Empire.
"Brother Qin, will we be rewarded by the general for our big victory this time?" Hu Yi rode on his horse and said with a smile.
Qin Wushuang, looking at the long convoy, said with a smile: "The empire will not treat us badly...... I will tell you the good news, the Great General has annihilated the coalition forces against the Xinghua tribe. β
When Hu Yi heard this, he exclaimed: "Long live the Empire! Long live Emperor Xinghua!" This time the strength of the enemy's coalition army was very strong, and Hu Yi really didn't expect the empire to win so quickly and so neatly. Hu Yi originally fantasized that his Tiger Legion would be able to return to the division to participate in the war and make meritorious achievements.
The Tiger Legion has won successive battles, and the Tiger Yi's heart is already a little erratic, and the mind that once wanted to take some more loot is gone. After hearing Qin Wushuang's news, Hu Yi had woken up, and his awe of the Xinghua Army had not diminished, but had deepened a lot. Hu Yi knew two things, the first was that the Tiger Legion attacked the rear of the anti-Xinghua coalition forces and did not fight them. The second is that the Tiger Legion has not defeated the Eagle tribe so far, and they are often passive towards the giant eagles in the sky.
Seeing that Hu Yi was in a bad mood, Qin Wushuang's heart suddenly felt happy, he couldn't see Hu Yi's more and more arrogant performance, so he wanted to hit him......
In another world, in the study room of the palace of Xinghua City, Yi Xingchen flipped through the report sent by Nanban City, and his heart was full of joy. It is foreseeable that there will be no more war in Nanban City, and the next step is to pay attention to civilian.
At this moment, the Xinghua Empire can be regarded as taking root in the land of the hundred barbarians.
This means that the Xinghua Empire is not only expanding its territory, but also that the southern part of the Xinghua Empire will be stable for a long time, and it also means that the Xinghua Empire has opened up trade routes to the Western Regions.
With such a trade route, the Xinghua Empire will gain great benefits from transporting the two sides of the mainland. Moreover, Yi Xingchen's next two things also have an opportunity to be solved.
Yi Xingchen convened the cabinet ministers and began to solve some problems step by step.
For example, send the Xinghua Army deep into the south of the Hundred Barbarian Lands to establish a supply depot, and then the mercenaries of Blue Mercury will also have a stronghold to garrison, providing a supply depot for the mercenaries who hunt and kill the giant earth dragon. Pick the elite of the Xinghua Army, go to the Western Regions to investigate, and snatch the formation master.
With the addition of cabinet ministers, Yi Xingchen's plan was gradually improved.
Because of the excellent performance of the Tiger Legion, Yi Xingchen also decided to change the name of Nanban City again. After all, the word Nanban in Nanban City has a feeling of disrespect for the Tiger Legion. This name can't be too ugly, and all barbarian races under the rule of the Xinghua Empire can accept it.
Yi Xingchen thought about it and proposed to the cabinet to change Nanban City to Nanyun City.
Without consideration, the cabinet quickly sent a telegram to Neo, who was far away in Nanban Castle, through the emperor's opinion.
Three days later, members of four mercenary organizations arrived in the country of Madagascar.
Because of the limited land area of Xinghua Island, the soldiers of the four mercenaries together exceeded 1,000 people, which seemed a bit crowded for Xinghua Island.
Therefore, Yi Xingchen thought that they could stay in Madagascar for the time being.
In her capacity as the president of Xinghua Island, Liu Yiyi contacted the government of Madagascar to request assistance.
The Government of Madagascar acceded to Liu's request and made conditions. Liu Yiyi also agreed to the conditions of the country of Madagascar. Soon after, a resident of Xinghua Island established a second Xinghua distillery in Madagascar.
Compared to RΓ©nia, Madagascar is mainly agricultural, with more abundant grain production, and is a good place to set up a winery. Moreover, many high-ranking officials of Madagascar are very coveted for Xinghua wine.
This is actually a win-win situation for the Xinghua Empire. Therefore, when Liu Yiyi asked Yi Xingchen, Yi Xingchen simply agreed.
When the time comes, Madagascar can provide more distilled spirits and transport them back to Xinghua Island to be rebrewed in the distilleries of the Xinghua Empire to make Xinghua liquor.
The weapons and equipment of the four mercenary organizations were transported separately by sea.
Next, Yi Xingchen prepared to send the four mercenaries to the Xinghua Empire in another world one after another.
These mercenaries, he will not send them all at once, but one by one. They are to be transported to another world under control. Yi Xingchen didn't want to go wrong. (To be continued.) )
