A few jackals are only harassing the lions at most, but if the number of jackals is large, no one knows if they will take risks, at this time, seeing Li Ran say this, everyone also nodded, their city lord is the only one who is still on the side of the capital among the three major dukes of the empire, if there is a war between the empires, then they will definitely have to participate in the war, and it will really be a big risk if it is not done well.

Seeing that everyone was talking for a while, Li Ran also asked: "Now this kind of thing, I believe everyone understands it, I don't know what your opinions are on our next move?" ”

Hearing the city lord ask, the people who were still a little noisy just now instantly quieted down, after all, a decision-making matter like this is too much to do, and they don't dare to answer easily.

After a while, Orka, the supreme administrator of this place, suddenly spoke: "Although the matter of the Grand Duke of Mednaqi is important and related to the future safety of the entire empire, I still feel that we should not intervene too early, since we last showed those dozens of epic creatures, although you have made great achievements, there are many fewer letters from some ministers and city lords in the capital, although this is not necessarily the king's intention, but this point must not be ignored."

Speaking of this, the Orka paused for a moment, and after looking at the crowd, he continued: "All of you here are the main people around the adults, and they are also the cronies who have followed the city lord for many years, and I will tell the truth, although we are not afraid of any side with our current real strength, but sometimes we should be cautious when we should be careful, as far as I personally think, compared to the complex political relations in the capital, I think that the Duke of Sells behind us is a hidden danger, this person is naturally forbearant and ruthless, Although it seems to be alone in the dark forest now, it is a character that must be guarded against, and it is also a threat that must be eliminated! ”

Hearing this, most of the people, except for the somewhat reckless barbarian leaders, also knew what he meant, and Doric looked at him and asked, "You mean that we will send troops to the Dark Forest before the capital orders the future?" ”

Glancing at Li Ran, this Orka nodded and said, "Not bad!" We sent troops to the dark forest, to the public is to crusade for the empire to rebel, to the private is to eliminate the hidden dangers behind him, and at the same time, after the city lord left, he also exempted the possible capital city, where the situation is now unstable, once the three empires become a confrontation, the slightest mistake will cause a big war, even if our troops are now greatly increased, I am afraid that we will not be able to return to the sky, rather than taking risks for others like this, it is better to sweep away the threat behind us first"

Knowing what he meant, Li Ran also nodded secretly, since this person was disappointed, after experiencing more than ten years of displacement and suffering from the warmth and coldness of the world, he has become more and more deep and wise, although sometimes his scheming is a little too deep, and his means are inevitably excessive, but it can be seen that everything is really considered from the overall situation, and he is also loyal enough to bring him from starvation to now becoming an important member of the ruling party of a city, so Li Ran will let him and Zhou Xun share the position of the highest administrator of the Acropolis here.

After pondering for a while, Li Ran also nodded in agreement with his opinion, and seeing that the city lord agreed with his opinion, the supreme administrator of Tyre City, Orka, after bowing and saluting, immediately waved his hand to call a few magicians who were waiting outside, and behind them, there were also several guards carrying a huge magic sand table.

These are full-time mages who are specially responsible for the demonstration and recording of the magic sand table, as for the magic sand table carried by the guards behind him, it was in the palace of the Marquis of Eliximo before, since the battle two years ago, in order to thank Li Ran's side for his selfless support, this person gave Li Ran this magic sand table made by his uncle on the day Li Ran became a duke, the most exquisite and detailed magic sand table in the empire.

Seeing the head of the administrator nodding, these full-time sand table magicians quickly moved and set their targets on the dark forest behind them, at this time, Orka pointed to one of the markers and looked at Li Ran and said: "My lord, during this time, I have let people find out the location of the large stronghold occupied by this Sells, which used to be a dark elf castle, the area is only the size of a small city, but because there were gray dwarves stationed here before, the relevant buildings are very strong, and some homemade large-scale siege weapons are arranged."

"Good boy! From here, this stronghold is almost in the center of the Dark Forest, and it is at least nearly 500 kilometers away from the nearest border."

"Almost, no wonder this Sells is so fearless"

"Yes, except for a large army that is very familiar with the environment, it is difficult for ordinary legions to march in the dark forest, even if there are many people, it will not work."

"Well, there are all kinds of poisonous fog swamps in the dark forest, and the experienced adventure team is okay, and it is impossible for the army to march in it, except for this Sells, who has been there for decades."

"Wouldn't it be a little too dangerous for us to go?"

At this time, looking at this magic sand table, everyone couldn't help but talk with some worry, especially the several leaders who had followed Li Ran there to do a knighthood mission before, including the leader of the minotaur Saquille and the leader of the leopard tribe, Borken, were all deeply locked at this moment.

They knew very well that the reason why they were able to complete the task there at that time was because of the city lord's command ability on the one hand, and on the other hand, because the roads they were doing were all reconnoitred before, except for the later siege of the castle, they reconnoitred and cleared more than a hundred miles of roads, but it also took more than a month to clear them, and the most important thing was that their location was only on the periphery at that time.

Hearing so much discussion, Orka, who also knew the danger of this trip, couldn't help but look at Li Ran, and found that the latter just nodded casually and asked him to continue, then he turned to introduce some dangerous locations collected through the intelligence network, and at the same time, he also gave a detailed introduction to several surrounding city lords and strongholds, such as those are Sers's followers, those are his close friends, those are those who can cooperate, etc., from which it can be seen that Orka has been planning this matter for a while.

"Okay, you will record these details for me later" Seeing that this person nodded with satisfaction, Li Ran then asked about the strength of Duke Sells.

When he learned that he had been deprived of the name of duke, and although there were only sixty or seventy thousand people left among the subordinates who fled to the dark forest with him, most of them were above the top rank, Li Ran thought for a while and said to Zhou Xun: "You go and arrange to gather troops, the Cyr clan, the Kuying clan and the Shura legion are all dispatched this time, and the rest are selected from the elf clan and the silver dragon warriors, and the number is controlled below 50,000 as much as possible, but it is announced to the public that it must be more than 100,000."

Hearing this, everyone also knew the attitude of the city lord, and after Zhou Xun nodded yes, Li Ran ended the meeting after admonishing the material replenishment.

"Lord Doric, how was the last time I asked you? Duke Maidnach's current situation, Count Rice is there, I'm afraid there will be real danger in the future" However, when everyone dispersed to prepare, Li Ran left Doric alone and asked.

At this time, Doric bowed down and said: "There is Lord Lao's concern, I have already asked someone to send the letter, but there is no reply yet, I really hope that he can get out of there as soon as possible"

Seeing his worry, Li Ran patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "All the way to the present, without your contribution, there would be no current foundation, now there are only two of you and me, you don't need to be so polite, if your uncle can just get out of this way, it is naturally the best, but no matter what, as long as he doesn't go head-to-head with the legions in the capital, everything here is still us."

Hearing Li Ran's words, this Doric was even more moved at this time, after such a long time, he knew that his city lord was a person who would not promise easily, and at this time, he boasted so much, obviously because of his relationship, so that at this moment, he didn't know how to say it except for gratitude.

Seeing his appearance, Li Ran also smiled and said: "Okay, just like I said just now, there is no need to be polite between us, you hurry up and contact Count Rice as soon as possible, and if you can't write a letter, let them transfer the flying troops, according to my guess, in a few months, when the results of the war with the Marquis of Silisus come out, the situation in the empire may be chaotic, and you have to hurry up."

Hearing Li Ran say this, Doric's eyes couldn't help but tighten violently, as an old man who had followed Li Ran for many years, he was very aware of this person's great wisdom, and now that he said this, it was obvious that he was not too optimistic about the battle situation on the side of the capital.

In the current situation, the war with the Marquis of Ciliphon is inevitable, and with the transfer of troops including the capital and several marquises, whether it is in terms of troops or troops, the imperial side has a clear advantage, although I don't know why his city lord has such a judgment, but Doric still prefers to believe Li Ran's guess.

So why did he agree with Orka before? Thinking of this, Doric couldn't help but cast an inquiring glance at Li Ran, but when he saw Li Ran's expression the next moment, he finally figured out the reason.

That night, Li Ran quietly came to the camp of the Zerela clan alone, and after talking with the three prophets here for a long time, he chose to leave.

And after a few days of preparation, in the early morning of this day, with a loud military trumpet, the north gate of Tyre, one of the three David cities of the Khan Rock Empire, suddenly opened, and a large number of troops slowly walked out of it, and the leader of the team was the Duke of Terris himself.
