"To put it bluntly, in fact, this time I just used 2,000 troops to buy us time for the mission," Li Ran finally summed up and said.

Hearing this, all the teammates also understood what Li Ran meant, and out of trust in Li Ran, Zhou Xun said at this time: "To be honest, I haven't thought about this kind of thing before, so I can't give any opinions, but I believe that you are definitely your reason for doing this, and I will support you no matter what!" ”

Hearing what Team Zhou said, other teammates also nodded, Zhang Debiao smiled and said to Li Ran: "Brother Ran, what Team Zhou said is what I want to say, anyway, I don't understand these things, for me the captives are either surrendered or sold, your thoughts have long been beyond my understanding, just let us do something."

Seeing that everyone expressed their approval, Li Ran smiled and said: "Actually, this is the first time I have done this kind of thing, but the big deal is two thousand high-level soldiers, regardless of whether she is scheming or not, as long as she dares to repent, we will arrest her again at that time, everyone will gamble with me this time."

Hearing Li Ran's heroic words, everyone was in high spirits, thinking about it, two thousand troops is indeed not a big deal for them now, and if they are lucky, they will come to exterminate a barbarian tribe, so they all nodded heavily at this time.

With Li Ran returning to the third world again, Zhou Xun and the others began to busy their own affairs, although I don't know if Li Ran's decision was correct this time, but it made them feel a different way of thinking, and all teammates believed that as long as they succeeded this time, their understanding of the third world would be improved again.

After a detailed discussion with Ladia. On the evening of the second day, Li Ran cooperated with all his teammates. A dispute in a stronghold allowed the dark warlock leader to escape and save all his men.

"Tang Zhi, Cao Team, Zhang Debiao. You guys bring some war bears and elven archers to chase after them," Li Ran, who was standing on the high platform at this time, smiled and said to Tang Shi and the others beside him.

Tang Zhijiao laughed and said, "Then do you want to kill a few of them, or I'm afraid it's too fake."

Li Ran nodded and said with a smile: "That's what you said, then you can do it yourself."

A few days later, a message arrives from the scouts who have infiltrated the Dark Castle with the help of Ladia, who is almost sacrificed to the Spider Demon after being defeated again.

However, with the forced Lydia putting the hidden 4,000 warriors on the table, coupled with the submission of the Harpy Commander of the Dark Castle and another Minotaur leader, his force quickly rose to 14,000 men, and she led them to occupy a large manor in the north of the city. It's a complete reversal of Nazr, the lord of the Dark Castle.

During this period of time, after several skirmishes in the city, Lydia showed her amazing command ability, which surprised Nazr, the lord of the Dark Castle, and also lost a lot of troops, and also lost her original absolute superiority in troops.

After receiving this information, Zhou Xun and the others were naturally very happy, especially in the following nearly half a month, when they saw that the stronghold was being built day by day without hindrance, they couldn't help but feel that Li Ran's previous decision was correct.

It was noon that day. After Li Ran and Zhou Xun and his entourage had dinner in the restaurant, they made a calculation on the progress and cost of the construction of the nearest base in the company's lounge.

"Not to mention the danger, this mission is too expensive" After Wu Tongtong gave an approximate figure, all teammates said a little depressed.

Seeing that this was from Cao Dayong's mouth. Cai Chang said with a smile: "Captain Cao, you are too stingy, Brother Ran is not distressed." Besides, we also got hundreds of troops in the early stage, which can be regarded as a little compensation for the loss."

Cao Dayong scratched his head and said, "That's not because this was built for someone else." When we're done, we'll pat ourselves on the butt and leave. It all belongs to the empire, if only our territory was a small empire, the last time I watched the news, the Shepherd Dog Guild in Germany occupied a territory, just because it is a small empire, it cost less than 100,000 gold coins to donate the title of an earl, and now they have built a medium-sized city"

At this time, Zhang Juan hurriedly said: "You are talking about Marcus, the deputy commander of the Shepherd Dog Legion, I also read this news, and the report says that they now have more than 200 people who have entered the battle map, if it continues to develop like this, that small empire will be occupied by them sooner or later."

Zhang Debiao asked a little puzzled: "Why are there only more than 200 people entering?" Isn't it possible for a knight to bring five knights over? Isn't it possible for a lord to have five knights? In this way, the baron can not have 125 places, so the viscount can bring more than 600 people? What's more, that guy is an earl."

"What the hell are you doing every day, you don't even know the rule that a formal title can only have two subordinate titles, which means that a baron can only have two lords, and a viscount can only have two barons as followers?" Seeing that everyone was smiling and looking at him, Zhang Debiao knew that he had said the wrong thing again, and sure enough, Zhang Juan was the first to jump out and glare at him and said.

Although he smiled embarrassedly, the unwilling Zhang Debiao still counted it quietly, and it was not until he confirmed it that he showed a suddenly realized expression.

Seeing this, the teammates couldn't help but smile again, and then talked about this famous shepherd dog legion, and when they talked about it, everyone couldn't help but talk about another more famous German legion - the bloody chariot legion.

"It's a pity that the luck of this bloody chariot legion is not as good as the shepherd dog legion just now, I heard that they are in a super-large empire, and they have only only mixed with the baron now, and they have just started to build a city not long ago, not much faster than us" After chatting for a while, Cao Dayong said with a smile.

At this time, Li Ran also smiled slightly and said: "Just like when we first entered the world map, the battle map appeared there randomly, and if you want to choose, you can only pass the title certification of the empire where you are located, unless you think you really have the strength to fight against the empire where you are located, if you dare to build a city without approval, I believe that if you don't build half of it, the city's city management will come and demolish it, and then not only will you not get compensation, I believe that people will have to be beaten back to the world map."

Seeing that what Li Ran said was interesting, Zhou Xun and the others couldn't help but smile, and when it came to the difference between the big empire and the small empire, Li Ran smiled and said: "In fact, compared to the faster development in the small empire, the big empire must also have its advantages, which is not only reflected in the problem of resources and population, sometimes the empire will also start a war between the empires, and at that time, the players in the small empire will definitely be much more dangerous than the players in the big empire" (To be continued.) )
