Chapter 609: Mission Accomplished
The three prophets didn't dare to say anything about the lord's assurance, and at this time another prophet, Kashamif, spoke: "Because it involves the hearts of other creatures, please ask Lord Doric to find more detailed information about this creature, mainly in terms of living environment, so that we can also prepare some resources and send them into it while stabilizing the space this time, so as to prepare in advance for future expansion."
Li Ran naturally had no opinion on this, and after chatting with them for a while, he let them go back to rest.
Since the matter here has come to an end, at noon on the third day, after all the other teams have come, Li Ran found the recorder in the city and asked him to show all the results of this mission.
During this time, in addition to the captives, they killed a total of 14,000 dark creatures, which was far higher than the 10,000 in the mission of entering the knighthood, and for such a result, the recorder also had a smile on his face.
After recording the number with a special magic tool, the recorder said to Li Ran at this time: "Lord Lord, congratulations on your successful completion of this mission, I will immediately use the teleportation array here to return to the capital, report your results to the military and political lords, and wait until the military and political lords send someone to verify, I believe that someone will be sent to inform you of the results of the mission soon."
Smiling and thanking the recorder, Li Ran secretly gave him two thousand gold coins when he was leaving.
Returning to the garrison stationed outside the city, after two days of preparation, this morning, Li Ran led the army and finally began to return.
When I went to this year, the second batch of crops had just been planted, and when I came back, these crops were almost ripe, and the mission was carried out for nearly two or three months, and the troops were mobilized from tens of thousands of people at the beginning to more than 20,000 people at the end, and the cost was very huge, so it took more than a week to return to the territory. The first thing Li Ran did was to hold a large meeting.
The meeting included almost all the important personnel existing in the territory, and the first thing to do was to count the gains and losses of this mission and purchase the corresponding supplies as a reserve.
Even if it is preparation, food is naturally the top priority, and the consumption of this expedition is huge, but fortunately, the second batch of crops has matured, so only personnel have been arranged to purchase some other food from other cities or territories.
Next, after Doric announced the details of the casualties of this expedition. Li Ran also asked him to pay out the bereavement pensions to the families of these fallen soldiers as soon as possible.
Speaking of the captives brought back this time, in addition to the tens of thousands of troops handed over to Earl Stant, there are still more than 3,000 dark elves, about 2,000 minotaurs, more than 1,000 spider demons and the same number of harpies, and 300 dark elf warlocks.
As for the number of top-level troops among them, there are about 500 people, of which the dark elves and minotaurs account for the majority, and there are also 12 dark warlocks of the priests, this amazing ratio somewhat surprised Li Ran.
In addition, 11 super-rank soldiers were captured this time. This includes the original Dark City Lord Nazr and another Minotaur Commander Kurto, both of whom are boss-level creatures, as well as three super-level spider demons, two Dark Elf warriors, and four Minotaur warriors.
Due to the economic problems of the territory, after this expedition was already miserable, so Li Ran decided to sell some of it, and after thinking about it again, Li Ran consulted Lydia again, and finally decided to leave only the minotaur and the dark warlock. Instead, the Dark Elves and Spider Demons are sold to ease the economic pressure on the territory. At the same time, some additions have been made to other main combat units.
After personally recruiting the minotaur leader Kurt, Li Ran ordered him to continue to lead all the minotaur troops, and as for Lydia, Li Ran continued to let her command all the dark elf warlocks, and the strange abilities of these dark warlocks really surprised him on the battlefield that day. Especially in the hands of a clever commander like Ledia, I believe that they are definitely a strange force on the battlefield.
Although the military and political lord has not yet sent information, but what should be done at the moment still needs to be done, at this time, the old village chief Morga got up and reported the construction progress of each territory during this period and some related situations.
Listening to the report of the old village chief Morga, Lydia and Kurto, who were fortunate enough to be invited into the meeting, couldn't help but lose their minds. Although they had already guessed that the master's territory was by no means simple, they never expected that Li Ran would have as many as a dozen territories, especially when they learned that there was an undeveloped underground world among them, they were even more excited.
The meeting came to an end, and when Li Ran asked everyone to return to their respective territories as soon as possible to carry out their work, he also determined some of the details again.
That night, Hu Shihai, who was reading a book in the study, suddenly heard a quick knock on the door.
"What's the matter? What does it look like to be in such a hurry! Seeing that it was Hu Hualin and Hu Zhijun who came in, the old man said with some dissatisfaction.
It seems that he had already guessed that the old man would say this, Hu Hualin smiled and said without care: "Dad, I have good news for you, the military has got us a good batch of troops in the third world"
Oh, the old man took off his glasses and looked at Hu Zhijun and said: "What kind of soldier is it, don't learn from you Lao Tzu, get dozens of middle-level soldiers and come back to report once, then I won't be annoyed to death every day."
Hu Zhijun was just about to speak, and Hu Huaming and Wang Haiyan, who had just been mentioned there, heard the movement here and ran over, and after learning about this incident, they also sounded one after another.
"This time, it was Li Ran's teammates who took the initiative to send me a message, they have a group of high-level spider demons and dark elf warriors in their hands who want to change troops, and ask us if we have any needs here," Hu Zhijun said at this time.
"This Li Ran again?" The old man asked curiously, "Did he say how much he could provide?" ”
Hu Zhihua sighed and said: "He said that as long as the troops are suitable, he can provide about 3,000 on his side, and in addition to these high-level troops, there are more than 200 top-level troops that can be exchanged for us."
Hearing this amount, the old man Hu Shihai couldn't help but feel refreshed, and after habitually picking up his cherished purple clay pot and taking a sip, he thought about it and said, "It seems that this little guy does have some ability, Hua Ming, do you have any troops that need to be replaced?" ”
In this regard, Hu Zhijun's father nodded and said: "Since the other party exchanges this number of troops, it must also want to exchange it for the legion arms that can form combat effectiveness, and the high-level corps that we can exchange now have 1,500 troll hunters and 1,000 undead cavalry, and there are also horned demons, the number is about 1,200, and there are also some Naga warriors, Thunderbirds, etc., which are not too many, but it is not cost-effective to use other high-level main battle troops" (To be continued.) )
