……

"Also, keep an eye on that bunch of people, I suspect they're coming for us today."

A hint of coldness flashed in Guan Yun's eyes, and he asked himself if he had not treated those people badly with any resources, but there were still people who tried to eat inside and out, since some people regarded his kindness as nothing, then don't blame him for being cruel.

The old bat glanced vaguely at a corner behind him, clenched his fists and said yes, and then returned to the sky, he still needed to continue to explore the vision of the troops, and he needed to be vigilant at all times in the north.

"Hey, why don't you go and take a look, the second master seems to be in a bad mood today."

Xia Yi glanced at Xu Shiyi, who was standing and talking without backache, and said angrily.

"At this point, you remember my role? I'm not a psychological comforter. ”

Don't be funny, it's not just you who are afraid, I'm more scared than you, when the second brother is in a bad mood, he can't help but find a soul sect or something to vent his feelings, look at my little arms and legs, it seems to be able to withstand the toss?

"Xia Yi!!"

A shout interrupted Xia Yi's complaint, damn it, what are you afraid of......

"Cow, cow, let's try to slow down."

Everyone on this team had to honestly call him sir, except Eleven and someone of higher status.

"If you continue to grind like this, I'll give you a different mount."

Guan Yun glanced at the cow with a little heartbeat, to be honest, he hadn't eaten a good meal of meat for almost a month, every day it was dry food or roasted hard soul beast meat, would this beef taste a lot better?

"Can we continue to expand our power?"

Now he has about 2,000 people under him, most of whom are ordinary people, and it would be a fool's dream to dominate the northern realm with such a force, but he really can't wait.

In this regard, Xia Yi could only smile bitterly.

"Second brother, don't be kidding, it's difficult for our three thousand people to support it now, the gold coins you gave me last time will support us for another three months, what will we do to expand our power."

"How can there be so little?"

Guan Yun frowned, the gold coins he handed over to Xia Yi last time were half of his own savings, you must know that in Soto City, one gold coin is enough for a family to tighten their belts for a year.

"The materials in the north are too expensive, the dry food, clothing, weapons, and materials we need are all sky-high here, and we can last until now thanks to the preferential treatment given by Elder Xu."

"Even if we use war to feed the war now, we can't fill this big hole, we lack the main source of income, so it is not a way to rob the east and the west."

The least valuable thing in the north besides ice and snow is human life, and in some tribes a gold coin can be exchanged for a woman.

However, Guan Yun was not worried at all, he knew that since Xia Yi raised this problem, it meant that he had a solution, and every time he felt that Xia Yi was particularly useful.

Guan Yun has a view of the overall situation, but he doesn't handle the small details very well, in his words, since he can solve it with his fists, why do he have to use his brains? Xia Yi is different, he is fine, cough cough, not the physiological kind, he is careful, and the most satisfying thing about him is that he will not question it.

He said that he wanted to form a force, what if he didn't have enough money? Okay, Xia Yi proposed a way to feed the war with war. What should I do if I don't have enough food? Okay, Xia Yi proposed to communicate and cooperate with the Spark caravan. What if there are not enough people? Well, Xia Yi put forward the strategy of elite soldiers, temporarily filling the gap in quantity with quality.

Therefore, Xia Yi's status is extraordinary, because in Guan Yun's eyes, the ten soul emperors are not as important as him.

"Stop tucking it away, shake your bad water out."

Xia Yi smiled, took out a slightly old map from his arms and unfolded it in front of Guan Yun.

"Here's a rough map of the North, take a look."

The northern realm is roughly divided into three parts, and in the easternmost part is the frozen forest next to the Heaven Dou Empire, and it is also the soul beast forest with the lowest degree of exploration by humans, and there is no one.

In the middle is the remnants of the ancient empire, scattered across this vast land of nearly a hundred large and small cities, which are also the main areas of activity for these outcasts who have come to take refuge.

The westernmost part of the grasslands to the northwest is the Arctic Ice Sheet, home to numerous tribes of all sizes and home to the Colorado Mountains.

"If we want to sit on the northern border, we must take the forsaken lands, and only by obtaining these cities can we have the opportunity to raise troops and occupy the active position."

Guan Yun understood what Xia Yi meant, what he really wanted to say was that only by occupying this part of the territory could they control the form of the northern realm, but this was also the most difficult point.

The cities in the north are either controlled by a caravan or the base of a mercenary group, and the most troublesome thing is the one controlled by the soul master family.

As I said at the beginning, the North is a place with no laws, no moral humanity, and whoever has the biggest fist is in charge.

"Remember that mercenary group this morning?"

This morning?

"Seven-Star Mercenary Regiment?"

"That's right, it's a great opportunity from heaven."

Guan Yun looked puzzled, he didn't understand what Xia Yi meant.

"Yeyin, cold iron, frost capital, long corridor, long peace. These five cities are just wrapped on the map, the west can be out of the ice field, the north can be connected to the Spark caravan, and both the item resources and the density of soul masters can be regarded as the top ......"

"And the Seven-Star Mercenary Regiment happens to be located in Yeyin City."

Guan Yun didn't speak, but took the map and looked at it carefully, the location of these five cities is just a small circle on this map, but there are a lot of forces around it.

Once he made his decision, it would mean that the days of relative safety would be gone forever.

Yes, he is not a good thing, he can treat a person's life as if it were nothing, but he can never ignore the lives of millions of people, and if he takes possession of these lands, it means that he will have to carry hundreds of thousands or even millions of lives to wrestle with others.

Xia Yi on the side was not in a hurry, maybe he had already guessed the answer, and he was still muttering in his mouth.

"It's obviously the appearance of a hero, why are you hesitating?"

Guan Yun still made a decision in the end, he figured it out, there was no way out, how could someone be qualified to think so much.

"Iron Mountain!"

Zhang Tieshan stepped forward immediately.

"Keep an eye on Ma Shoucai with your people, and I will allow you to cut first and then play when necessary."

The soldier is very fast, he wants to attack Yeyin City, and take advantage of the fact that the seven-star mercenary group has not yet gathered its strength, and it is best to win or lose it within tonight.

"Sons!"

Guan Yun rode his horse and raised his sword, and he was extremely powerful.

"The second master will take you to make a fortune!"

From the moment he put on the red mask, he was not Guan Yun of the Holy Soul Village, but Guan Er Ye of the northern realm.
