"And I suggest, continue to expand our army!"

As soon as Sharif's words fell, Edie said with a grim face:

"The current huge army has made it very difficult to maintain the City of Angels, and this is still under the premise that the reserve army has no salary!"

"Yes, Your Excellency. www.biquge.info Sherif nodded, agreeing with Edie's words, and continued, "But the enemy who has caused us to be here has arrived!" We must build up our armaments! ”

He said passionately: "In the face of a powerful enemy, even if we have the most elite soldiers, but the number is too scarce! At the moment, they are only facing the motley army that the enemy has recruited, and they are not much stronger than the mob! Even so, we are already dwarfed! So the army should not only be expanded! We also need to diversify our troops! ”

"But we don't have so many people to expand the army!" Edie looked at Sharif dumbfounded, and he shouted, "You're going to form a legion!" ”

"My lord! In my vision, we would need at least 5,000 troops in the early stages, including 2,000 infantry, 2,000 crossbowmen, 500 cavalry, and 500 rangers, I hope! Ignoring Edie's words, Sharif explained to Xiao Yi.

"Infantry and crossbowmen will be reserves, but they must be trained rigorously, I have a hunch that soon we will be in for a terrible battle! At the same time, dire wolves are easy to use, but they are very bad at attacking enemies, and on the battlefield, they are too easy to get out of control! ”

"So I need a cavalry capable of storming the enemy! They can be wolf cavalry, even better if they have horses, I remember our stables have been set up and are starting to produce excellent Arshira Highland horses! ”

Xiao Yi also planned to expand the army, but he didn't expect Sharif to be so crazy! You know, there aren't five thousand people in the entire City of Angels right now!

"My chief of guard, you must know that even if I let women and children carry weapons, I will not be able to gather five thousand men!"

Sharif nodded, and he said calmly, "So I think you should add the town of Moon Creek to your territory as soon as possible. ”

"Not only does it have a large population, but it also has the largest mine in the entire Western Wilderness, which is very beneficial for our future development!"

Moon Creek Town! Xiao Yi originally planned to wait until all the reserve troops recruited were trained to become sentinels, and then stationed in Yuexi Town, after all, there was still a militia unit called the Yuexi Brigade in Yuexi Town.

But Sharif, who has always been calm, has actually changed his normal and plans to attack Yuexi Town now!

"Are you sure?" Xiao Yi asked in a deep voice.

"Hold it right! My lord! Sharif said firmly, he had dealt with the Moon Creek Brigade several times, those were less than two hundred, and the equipment was equivalent to the reserve army, as for the level of training, it was estimated that even the reserve army could not be compared!

Sharif firmly believes that with the cooperation of a hundred sentinels and a small number of scouts, he will be able to wipe out the enemy!

"Edie, do you have any objections to that?" Nodding, Xiao Yi turned his head and asked the chief steward Edie.

After thinking for a while, Edie nodded and said: "I have no objection to controlling Moonstream Town, there are many more resources than the City of Angels, if we take the Death Mine, we can sell our weapons and equipment to Treasure Bay, they are very keen on our excellent equipment." ”

The system-assisted blacksmith shop, coupled with the Green Goblin mercenary group, is said to be a master blacksmith dwarf, and the equipment produced is very well-equipped, and has always been sought after by merchants from Treasure Bay.

Ever since Xiao Yi allowed the goblin merchant Hahn to set up shop in the City of Angels, many merchants who heard the news have crossed the dangerous strait and come to this magical city to trade.

With the arrival of the merchants, the merchant tax finally allowed Xiao Yi's shriveled money bag to be stored, and Xiao Yi also began to pay a certain salary to the guards and crossbowmen. However, most of the lords still relied on their work in exchange for food, or in exchange for some meager coins.

Among the few commodities in the City of Angels, the most sought after by merchants are the well-made weapons, which have always been expensive due to their scarcity and quantity.

The main reason is because of the ore, although a large number of gnolls are used for mining in the small ore veins nearby, this creature is not very good at mining, and the ore veins themselves are scarce, so the production only meets the consumption of the Angel City itself.

For Edie, who had heard about the Death Mine for a long time, it was unimaginable wealth to control this massive bonanza!

You know, the Death Mine is not like your own small mine, in addition to producing ordinary iron ore and copper ore, it often produces all kinds of precious gems! There are also occasional silver and gold mines.

So Edie didn't have any objection to the proposal to take control of Mooncreek Town.

After Edie's consent, the matter was basically settled, and as for the mercenary leader and the Green Goblin mercenary leader Daniel, they were only here to observe.

So soon Xiao Yi gave the order to prepare to attack Yuexi Town.

-------------------------

The news of the attack on Yuexi Town was not easy to conceal, and Xiao Yi did not intend to hide it. It is very easy to defeat the enemy's army, but the subsequent takeover and management of Yuexi Town is the most difficult.

Especially Xiao Yi now almost even relies on the army in the City of Angels, barely maintaining good law and order, in terms of government affairs, if it weren't for the fact that he spent a lot of money to hire some professionals from Hidden Treasure Bay, I'm afraid that those low-level officials who can't even count their fingers have already collapsed the City of Angels!

So Xiao Yi's order hasn't been issued for long, and the entire City of Angels knows about this time, and it's also the first war against the same kind!

There was a lot of talk about it, many people in the City of Angels had lived in Mooncreek Town, and they all told about their tragic experiences, and occasionally a few quarrels over trivial matters, which then evolved into armed battles, and were finally taken away by the sheriff who arrived.

The news gives some talk to people who are ostensibly thriving, but who have been under pressure from outside threats and repetitive work. Fortunately, most of the people were expecting this military operation.

There are also some people who are worried about the war, most of them are family members of military personnel, and they are afraid that someone will die because of the war again. Forty-two families lost loved ones in the recent war against the Jackals.

Even if the last merciful lord gave the families of these soldiers who died in battle very generous pensions, no one wanted their families to die!

However, no matter how worried they are, they can't stop the expansion of the City of Angels, and from today onwards, the City of Angels is no longer cautious, and he has entered an era of rapid expansion!
