Chapter 53: Preparing to build the West Spring Fortress
Red Dragon! Xiao Yi has read the novel officially published by Warcraft, to be honest, except for being a little messy, the story in it is still very interesting, especially those artifacts in it, which makes him obsessed with reading online novels. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Now that the red dragon has joined the orcs, the second orc war has also begun. Because Xiao Yi remembered that the epic and magnificent Second Orc War began with a skirmish in the navy, and with the addition of the Red Dragon, it gradually evolved into a tragic large-scale air battle!
The dwarven kingdom of Kazmodan immediately joined the alliance due to the threat of the orcs, and brought with them their long-time allies and neighbors, the gnomes who excelled in making machines.
Using the griffins of the dwarves and the flying machines of the gnomes, the Alliance, under the leadership of Admiral Daileen Prodmoor, the king of Kul Tiras, barely resisted the Horde's sea attack!
"No wonder there are no orcs in Stormwind, it turns out that the second orc war has begun!" Xiao Yi frowned and pondered, he was wondering if he would take advantage of the emptiness of his troops and directly send troops to attack Stormwind City!
But then he shook his head, and decisively put this idea behind him, no matter how weak the orcs were in Stormwind City, it was not something he could provoke with only five thousand soldiers.
Even if it is the final attack on Stormwind City, the orcs don't need to send a large army to help, a few red dragons can destroy themselves! In the final analysis, in this world, a certain amount of high-end force is still needed! Large-scale ordinary soldiers have almost no resistance in front of the truly strong!
But......
Stormwind is empty, isn't this a good opportunity to build! Even if the orcs found out about their moves, they would not be able to send a large-scale army against them, you know, in every way, Stormwind is much more important than the entire Wild West!
Excellent port, safe reserve barracks, rich material reserves. As long as the commander of the orcs thinks that the handful of humans behind him, although they are a threat to themselves, are not deadly, then they will not go all out to deal with Xiao Yi!
Moreover, building a city wall on the border is originally a cowardly act, and the commander of the orcs, without sufficient troops, is likely to wait and see, or even ignore the actions of the Xiquan Fortress! After all, its main task is probably to protect the supply of logistics!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yi said decisively: "Mr. Van Cleef, I hope that you will gather as many members of the Brotherhood of Masons as possible in the coming week, and I will ask Chief Edie to cooperate with you and recruit you a sufficient number of people, and in a week, we will go to the Xiquan Fortress to start our plan!" For the specific details, you go and discuss it with Edie. ”
Although he didn't understand why Xiao Yi's changes were so big, Van Rikoff still said respectfully: "I'll do it, respected lord." ”
Nodding, Xiao Yi asked the Auston butler who had been waiting on the side, "Where is Commander Sherif now?" ”
Auston flipped through his notepad before replying, "Yesterday the Rangers were initially equipped, and His Excellency the Legion Commander led the army to exterminate the Gnoll tribe near Sentinel Ridge, so as to hone in the tacit understanding between the Rangers and the Legion. ”
"Send a sentry to Commander Sherif and I give the order!" Xiao Yi paused for a moment, and after seeing that Auston was ready to record, he said:
"Let His Excellency Commander Sherif deal with the matter at hand as soon as possible, and lead the army back to the City of Angels at noon the day after tomorrow at the latest, reorganize the army, and negotiate with Governor Edi about the logistics and supply of the army."
"Command! Chief Edie fully cooperated with Mr. Van Cleve's work, and at the same time prepared the supplies needed for the army's long-term expedition. ”
"Command! General Edric is putting a hold on to the griffon's lair and recruiting as many griffons as possible to travel with the army as soon as possible, I need a group of scouts in the air! At the same time, let him take care of his own affairs as soon as possible, and prepare to take over the affairs of the City of Angels. ”
After giving several orders in one breath, Xiao Yi gasped for a moment and continued:
"Let the people of the propaganda team move, I need the army to go on the march, and the news of the imminent establishment of the West Spring Fortress spreads to the ears of every people in the Western Wilderness! Let people know that we're about to build a fortress that will keep the entire Wild West safe! That's all for now, let's go and deliver the order first! ”
Nodding to Van Rickev and Auston, Xiao Yi motioned for them to go about their own affairs, and hurriedly disappeared into the corridor, this time he planned to go to the West Spring Fortress in person, and there were still some things to be dealt with before that.
Because of Edric's arrival, Xiao Yi can no longer only stay in the City of Angels, although Edric is an offensive hero, but as a blade mage, and born in a family of scholars, he is no stranger to dealing with government affairs.
Although it is not like a hero who specializes in internal affairs can bring bonuses to the city, at least Xiao Yi can hand over government affairs to him, and Xiao Yi has the intention to divide Yuexi Town to him as a territory, but because Xiao Yi himself is currently a black household, he has no action.
At this time, Aunt Liba brought a large pot of steaming stew to the table, and her husband, the thin man, was sitting at the head of the table, holding the younger son in his hand, watching the eldest son swallow as he was seduced by the aroma of the stew.
The small living room is filled with a rich aroma, the stew of chicken and sausages and carrots and cabbage is particularly tempting, and the white bread with the vegetable soup makes Bobby, who has been on the go for a month, almost think that he is attending a noble banquet!
Damn it! It's only been a month, can the civilians of the City of Angels eat white bread? In a hearty laugh that did not fit his figure, Bobby rubbed his eldest son's head, took the vegetable soup that his daughter had served, took a precious white bread from the basket, and ate it in a big gulp.
Praise to the merciful lords, this is delicious!
Placing the cut fruit on the table, Aunt Liba scratched the wound that had healed from the attack of the jackals, and said with a smile:
"Chief Edie sent a lot of flour and fruit, saying that the lord is a reward for your merit, oh my God! My lord is so merciful, it's the first time I've made bread out of flour. ”
Shaking his head with a wry smile, he was helpless against his rude mother-in-law, but as long as his family was happy, this was his greatest wish, and now his previously unattainable wish seemed to have come true.
"What's the matter with the wound on your hand? Look at you keep scratching, itching? Do you want to go to the doctor? Bobby asked casually after taking a bite of the stew.
"I know! I know! The eldest son buried his head in the plate and kept stuffing food into his little mouth, but this did not affect his speech: "Mommy was attacked by a wolf monster!" Such a big wolf, hiding in our cellar. ”
As he spoke, he made an exaggerated gesture.
"Stinky boy, don't talk nonsense, Captain Sam said, it's just a runaway gnoll, and I've been caught so far, but I always feel that this wound is very itchy." Patting the eldest son, Liba said nonchalantly.
