Before heading to the underground rat nest, the stone has to endure spending a few more days in the "Steel Rock".

He just got his hands on this legendary fortress, but he can't just pat his ass and leave, after all, the border prince's territory has not been peaceful recently, and maybe someone will come to fish in troubled waters.

Also, isn't that "Northern Frontier Alliance" threatening to step on the "Steel Rock", but don't just leave on your front foot, and the army of these human shrimps on your back foot will come.

Although according to the Greenskins who had just surrendered, the majority of Shrimp's troops were outside the northern human town of "Gunkufort", and the Greenskins from the Badlands fought in the dark, and they had returned from the battlefield over there before.

However, this is the only information they know, and they don't know what the specific battle situation is, how many people on both sides, and who has the upper hand.

So the day after he killed Golga, Stone sent Hawkeye out of the fortress with forty "Howlers Under the Moon", who were also riding giant wolves, to get out for information.

The previous three major battles, whether it was the tunnel battle in the rat's nest, or the street battle and the city defense battle in Seri, did not have the opportunity for these agile goblin wolf riders to play, and the stone was afraid that these precious elites would suffer senseless losses, so they had been arranged in the second line to protect the old rotten teeth, which was regarded as a reserve, and even did not take them with them when they went out of the city to charge yesterday, so that these bloodthirsty riders and the mounts under their crotches had long been unable to hold back, and as soon as they heard that they had the opportunity to go out, they immediately ran away without a trace.

The endless wasteland is the most suitable battlefield for them, and with their mobility and Hawkeye's leadership, it is believed that these scouts will soon be able to bring back the news that Stone urgently needs now.

As for himself, he just took advantage of the past few days to win over the newly joined green skins, after all, if there is really a battle, these boys will be the main force, especially the more than 2,000 orc men, after resting, the combat effectiveness is absolutely superior.

A busy day has passed.

Stone seized the time to implement the core values of the "Broken Claw Tribe" to the new junior brother during the day, and he couldn't rest at night, so he collapsed on the bed and began to plan the personnel distribution of the entire territory through the system.

It's only been more than a month, but the changes that have taken place in the territory can definitely be described as earth-shaking, and the most straightforward change, in addition to a new stronghold, is the increase in the number of boys.

Let's talk about the loss first, this time the stone took most of the tribe's troops out to fight, and the entire hometown was guarded by hundreds of goblins from the "Thunder Cliff", and as a result, a total of 200 orcs, 500 goblins and 700 fart spirits were killed, which was definitely the heaviest casualty in the history of the tribe.

But! Doesn't matter!

These were definitely nerve-wracking losses in the past, but now they are no longer in the eyes of the orc lords, because they are nothing compared to the final gains!

In this fourth-level green-skinned fortress in front of you, the green-skinned boys of the tribe have reached more than 10,000 for the first time, if you add the three hundred orcs and more than 1,600 goblins in the rat's nest, the total number is more than 12,000, pay attention, this is not counting more than 900 fart spirit tyrants.

That's right, the stone roughly calculated, and the number of orcs and goblins directly skyrocketed fivefold after the war! It can be seen how well this battle was fought!

Moreover, there are 3,000 orcs and 8,000 goblins among them, which means that as long as the stone is willing, he can arrange them in any of the strongholds.

Yes, although all the greenskins in the system belong to the "Broken Claw Tribe", they must be assigned a stronghold, just like a household registration, and this household registration cannot be changed, which is very strict.

This is because the number of greenskins it has for each colony is one of the three criteria for whether it can be upgraded.

Normally, new greenskins born from each stronghold's mushroom field are automatically counted in the population of that stronghold, but greenskins that are recruited through the system or newly added from other tribes can be freely distributed by the liege.

That is to say, the stone can now assign these 10,000 new brothers to the strongholds they want according to the development of each stronghold, so as to maximize resources and help them upgrade.

Don't forget, the upgrade of these strongholds is directly related to the completion of the main quest!

Now the quest requires the Horde to have a Level 4 fortress and three Level 3 walled cities.

Originally, according to normal logic, Stone should first concentrate resources to upgrade "Orgrimmar" to level four, and then find a way to build a new stronghold, and then upgrade the remaining strongholds to level three.

That's exactly what he thought, but when he found out that the "Steel Rock" had an opportunity, he immediately reacted, isn't this legendary fortress a ready-made stronghold? Not to mention level four, there must be level three!

This is also the reason why he took such a big risk to take down the "Steel Rock", it turns out that he was right again, this is really a fourth-level fortress.

This means that one of the most important requirements of the main quest has been met, and all you need to do is upgrade both "Ironforge Castle" and "Thunder Cliff" to level 3!

However, when the stone opens the system and enters the interface of "Steel Rock", it seems that it is not so simple.

It turns out that this fourth-level fortress is not yet recognized by the system, because it has just been attacked by the nezumi, and many of the buildings have been damaged and are in a state of "damage".

So he also received a "Restore Legendary Fortress" assignment before, asking him to rebuild all level 4 buildings, and the reward was a "dock" architectural blueprint.

However, when he entered the architecture page to see what level 4 buildings were available, a new problem arose.

The system shows that all the buildings in "Steel Rock" cannot be built at the moment, for the simple reason that its population is 0, and the stone must first make the population of this stronghold meet the minimum requirement of a level 4 fortress, which is 5,000 green skins.

If you want to have a complete level 4 fortress, you need to prepare 5,000 inhabitants for it first, and then repair all the buildings.

"Lost! It's only 5,000, anyway, I have a lot of younger brothers now! ”

I didn't have a choice, the stone secretly calculated, fortunately, there were enough kids, so with a wave of his hand, he selected a thousand orcs and more than 4,000 goblin archers recruited from the system before, and put them under the name of "Steel Rock" together, and sure enough, the four-level buildings in the building list can be built.

There was no rush to repair the house, and the problem of the household registration of 5,000 green skins was solved, and there were still more than 6,000 waiting to be arranged.

Shi counted with his fingers again, the third-level walled city only needs eight hundred green skins, even if one thousand goblin boys are arranged for each of the "Iron Fort Fort" and "Thunder Cliff", there are still two thousand orcs and two thousand goblin boys who can be arranged to "Orgrimmar", plus its original four hundred orcs and one thousand goblins, there are exactly more than five thousand, which just meets the upgrade conditions!

"When the time comes, I will have two fortresses and two walled cities, which can be regarded as overcompleting the task, is there any envoy reward!"

Meizizi's stone was counted several times, and after confirming that there was no problem, he operated the system according to this scheme, and immediately received a system prompt.

["Thunder Cliff" has reached the upgrade standard and has been upgraded to a green-skinned village!] 】

……

Just as Stone was about to scratch the last four thousand green skins under the name of "Orgrimmar", he suddenly felt that something was wrong, as if he had forgotten something......
