When Nangong Sima returned to the village, he found that not only were his own soldiers resting at the entrance of the village, but also six warriors of the Flying Eagle Clan were talking to a group of soldiers.

They were grazing on their own with six sturdy horses on a leash.

Nangong Sima walked into the village quickly, and before he could reach the door of his room, the door opened, and Coppola and Yilimu walked out.

Coppola came up to hug him with a smile on his face and said, "Lord Sima, I'm so happy that we meet again!" ”

"Nice to see you again!"

Nangong Sima said to Smith beside him: "Serve tea to entertain distinguished guests!" He stretched out his hand and said to Coppola, "Come, please inside us!" ”

Everyone sat down in the room, and Smith served tea.

Nangong Sima said: "I don't know that my friend is far away, so I didn't greet him in time, I'm sorry." ”

"Where's the word!" Coppola smiled, "Master Sima's career is flourishing, everyone is a friend, you're welcome!" ”

Perseverance stood up, holding a large plate in his hand with a lot of stuff in it. He walked up to Nangong Sima and respectfully placed the plate in front of Nangong Sima.

Coppola said: "This is a gift from our patriarch to Lord Sima and conveys our gratitude to Lord Sima. The patriarch liked the dagger you gave him very much, and he also liked the long knife. ”

"Among these gifts, the curved dagger is the patriarch's personal sword, the string of prayer beads is the mana prayer beads given to the adults by the great wizard of our clan, and there are some precious and rare items, all of which are the sincerity and friendship of my patriarch."

Nangong Sima smiled, motioned for Smith to put away the plate, and said with a smile: "In comparison, the Flying Eagle Clan is still sincere, and the Pocket Cave Clan is not like it." ”

"Pocket Cave Clan?!" Coppola and Yilimu were stunned for a moment, and looked at Nangong Sima, "Have they been here?" ”

Coppola looked at Nangong Sima incredulously, as if he wanted to see a negative expression on Nangong Sima's face.

Nangong Sima said: "Yes, they are here." After a pause, seeing their worried expressions, he said, "But I don't welcome the person they came, it's an assassin." ”

Coppola and Fortitude were stunned again, and then reacted.

"Assassins?!" Coppola looked at him in surprise, "What are these guys thinking, they are actually ...... No one was hurt, right? He originally wanted to ask Nangong Sima if he was injured, but suddenly reacted, isn't this person in front of him, so he had to ask others if they were injured.

"It's okay, my soldiers saw through and captured it."

"That's the best, it didn't work." Coppola looked at Nangong Sima and asked, "I don't know how to deal with it in the end?" ”

Nangong Sima smiled: "You want to ask me about my attitude towards the Pocket Cave Clan, right?" ”

Coppola laughed awkwardly and took his tea.

Nangong Sima said: "It doesn't hurt to tell you, between me and your Flying Eagle Clan, we are true friends, mutually beneficial, and coexist on the prairie." For the Pocket Cave Clan, if they are safe, everyone will be fine, and if they provoke, I will definitely accompany them to the end. I've never been soft on provocations. ”

Seeing the murderous aura in Nangong Sima's eyes, Coppola also trembled for a while, and said: "Everyone is seeking development, and cooperation is of course the best." ”

"That's nature, no one wants to find trouble, it's best to be quiet and peaceful. But for the enemy, not to the death. Nangong Sima smiled and drank tea.

Coppola smiled: "I brought the meaning of our patriarch, in view of the fact that we both want to cooperate and win-win, so the transaction can be carried out, and the subsequent transactions are represented by me, this time is just a preliminary exchange." ”

"We have brought 12 fine horses, which are already tied to your stables. What we need is very simple, 30 sets of farm tools, 10 sets of armor, including weapons. ”

"Your patriarch knows how to trade, and he won't ask for so much. I think you can take 10 sets of farm tools and 10 blessing armor. Weapons included. Since it's a start, I think I can make a counteroffer. ”

Coppola laughed: "Your Excellency says that as much as you want, you understand, after all, if we want to risk being at war by the Pocket Cave Clan to do business with you, we need to convince many people in the clan that they need to see things before they let go." ”

"I understand that." Nangong Sima said, "Please tell those who are worried that when the Pocket Cave Clan comes, we will also declare war on the Pocket Cave Clan." And to protect you, we will set up sentinels on the steppe. ”

Coppola looked at him in surprise and asked, "Stronghold?" You're going to establish a stronghold on the steppe? ”

"Can't you?"

"It's not impossible, if you establish a stronghold, it is equivalent to settling in a place and supplying you want to be long." Coppola stopped talking.

Nangong Sima knew that he was worried about letting them provide supplies, and said with a smile: "The supply to us will be solved by ourselves, or with the livestock we have traded with you." But it can serve you as a defence. ”

Coppola exclaimed: "I really admire the thoughtful planning and decisive implementation of the adults!" ”

Nangong Sima smiled: "I see that you brought 6 warriors with you when you came this time, how can you bring so many things when you go back?" ”

Coppola said: "We have horses that can be changed, and we can change horses, empty horses, and camels. After entering the grassland, the horse whipped quickly, and it took half a day to arrive. ”

Nangong Sima said: "That's good, Smith, prepare farm tools and equipment for your friends, and I will send another 100 escorts to send you to the edge of the big forest and into the grassland, you go to yours, don't worry about him." ”

Smith got up and went to prepare.

Nangong Sima also stood up, Coppola and Yilimu stood up and nodded in thanks, the two said kind words to each other, and when they came out of the room to the entrance of the village, the equipment and farm tools had been tied up by the six warriors and were ready to set off.

Seeing so many soldiers resting in the woods, the village was so big that they were not allowed to enter. Coppola's face was full of curiosity and it was difficult to ask, so he had to say: "I am finally relieved to see these tiger-like soldiers, no matter how powerful the Pocket Cave Clan is, it is just a lonely self-appreciation, and it can't withstand the hard work of the warriors!" ”

Knowing that he was just making sure that he would protect the Flying Eagle Clan again, Nangong Sima still smiled and said, "Don't worry, there are some things that I will start immediately after I make a decision." ”

Coppola also heard the sound outside the strings, knew how to advance and retreat, and smiled at the moment: "Haha, that's good, let's not bother for now, it's important to rush back to resume your life." Hopefully we'll see you again soon. ”

"Okay, waiting for your good news! Bon voyage! ”

Coppola got on his horse and went with six warriors. Here, the leader sent out by Nangong Sima also followed with 100 soldiers.

I saw them all gone. Smith asked, "My lord, with so many people sent out, won't the supply trucks keep up?" ”

Nangong Sima walked back and asked him, "Where did Gilliam go?" ”

"My lord, he is probably about to reach the prairie."

"Yes, select 200 soldiers to escort the car and march along the road to the grassland. We then set off. ”

"Yes, sir!"

Stronghold.

Outside the stronghold, except for the guard, logistics, and patrol teams, everyone else went on the road to start building roads.

A 10-metre-wide planning area requires clearing grass, marking felled trees, then demarcating the area, felling, repairing on the spot, where a roadside rest point needs to be built, where the timber is built in situ, or the timber is split in two to build a roadside fence.

More than 800 people were divided into several battle groups, scattered in the forest more than a mile long, the front was a weed-clearing team, a row of five people, responsible for clearing the stems and leaves of the weeds, and the people in the back were responsible for clearing the roots and stems of the ground.

These are two difficult jobs to do, so there are about 200 people working on them.

Construction soldiers, plus soldiers on patrol, logging, moving, master planning, captains, squad leaders, chatting, shouting, saws felling, trees falling...... The sound of fiery fire filled the forest.

In contrast, the stronghold was empty, and a group of support staff were busy cooking.

According to the commander just now, the soldiers consume a lot of physical energy, and it is better to have some meat to replenish it. Therefore, now the assistant chef in the back kitchen is cutting the bacon that has been dried not long ago.

Although seedlings have been planted in the vegetable patch at the back, it still has to wait half a year for the harvest. At present, the dishes are all brought in after the disinfection of the camp.

Behind the building, patrols are passing by. Although there is a fence around the vegetable field, no one takes it seriously as a vegetable field, and although the patrols come every day, they have little idea of what damage can be caused here.

After the patrol passed. The area around the vegetable patch became quiet.

Suddenly, in the forest outside the buffer zone, a group of people in disguise appeared, and they looked at the sentinels on the roof of the building in the distance, and quickly approached the guardrail of the vegetable field from the four corners.

When the sentries upstairs turned around, they quickly climbed over the railing, jumped into the vegetable patch, brandished their hoes and planed them indiscriminately, and some of them ran in the vegetable patch, dragging rakes behind them, raking the newly emerging vegetable seedlings out of the ground.

The group of people scattered, and one of them took a bag and ran to the well, opening the whole bag of powder and dumping it.

Some people dig big pits in the same place, and dig a good piece of land deep into the hole.

The sentry upstairs turned around and glanced into the distance, stunned, and took a closer look, what are so many people doing in the vegetable field!

"Hey! Who are you! The sentry upstairs shouted, and immediately blew the whistle.

"Toot ......"

The patrol in the village heard the whistle and immediately ran behind the mouth.

All the people in the other posts are under martial law, and they are not allowed to move in the house. The 20 closest soldiers were temporarily recruited back to participate in the encirclement and interception.

When the guards ran to the fields, the men in the fields threw their tools and turned around and ran, climbed over the fence wall, and went into the woods.

When the soldiers ran to the vegetable field, they saw that the vegetable field that they had high hopes for had now become a construction site, this pile of soil, there was a pit, there were random planing, some rake, and some feet, and more than 3 acres of 5 acres of vegetable land were destroyed.

The captain was very angry when he looked at this scene, and said angrily: "Call the brothers back, Golden Forest, chase!" ”
