In winter, the land is vast, and the snow hides everything, and at the same time makes it impossible to hide new traces, which are exposed in the most conspicuous way on the white surface.

Tianhao didn't destroy Tooth City.

It became a temporary base for the Rock City Warband.

Bows and arrows were brought in from the rear, blacksmiths were set up in the city, broken armor was repaired, and busy craftsmen had little time to rest. In contrast, the wear and tear of weapons is not very serious, and the soldiers can carry out the daily maintenance work of knives and steel axes themselves. As precious as grease is, no one is going to save on it, especially in cold weather like these, where grease is essential to keep the edge of a weapon sharp.

The lack of horses has once again become the biggest problem plaguing Tianhao. He had excellent warriors under his command, although these people's riding skills were not exquisite, at most they were "mounted infantry", but it was undeniable that the advantage of speed was the key factor in determining victory or defeat, and the information was conveyed much faster, especially in logistics and transportation, although the bull was strong and strong, and the number of goods pulled was larger, but it was far less fast than the horse.

There is no solution to this problem at present, and Tianhao can only allocate as many horses as possible to the rangers, and then allocate some from the elite of the war group to form a rapid force of 3,000 people.

Scouting, messaging with allies, hunting enemy infiltration squads, harassing ...... The tasks they undertake are many and significant.

All the captives were taken to Rock City, and judging by the time, the first prisoners of war had arrived. The old priest and Yonggang were responsible for the rear dispatch, and the elder brother Tianfeng was also temporarily transferred from Zhangpu Village to Panshi City to be responsible for the placement of the prisoners of war. In order to secure the strength of the front, there were only 6,000 military forces left in Rock City, and the only ones that made Tianhao feel at ease were those political commissars, who did their best and played a stabilizing role to the maximum.

The "Grievance Conference" is an experience from the age of civilization. Tianhao did not kill all the captured high-ranking people, but left some with the prisoners of war. According to his orders, the political commissars of the detachments would convene a meeting of the people every day at the night camp where they had returned. The topic is clear———— who can make me live a good life?

Since it is a discussion, there must be two sides of the argument. Most of the pig people and civilians have a very difficult life, with no clothes and no food. It's hard to say whether there are exploitative groups in the true sense of the word in this particular era, and the common people have no idea about it, but they need a target to withstand the wrath of the attack, and they also need a solution to the problem.

There are good and bad leaders of the 100 people of the pig tribe, and relying on power to bully men and women to seize rice and grain often happens. The captains and committee members of each team have investigated privately and have sufficient evidence, and the targets of the attacks laid out at the meeting are very accurate and will not wronged good people.

"They robbed us of everything."

"They are our kindred, but they don't treat us as our own people."

"We worked so hard all year round that we couldn't even eat enough. Look at them again, they are so strong, so fat, they won't even lose weight after walking for so many days...... It's all our blood and sweat! ”

Execution is the most important procedure of the General Assembly. This power is given to the representatives elected by the meeting. According to the rules of the northern barbarians, the executioner could obtain the head of the deceased, make it into a bone bowl, and curse it for generations.

The troubles are solved, and the next thing is, of course, to sing the praises and praise everything to the young city lord who gave the prisoners of war a happy and beautiful life.

Rock City is the most beautiful place in the world, and you will start a new life there.

This is a topic full of novelty and temptation.

The POWs had never been to Rock City, and their curiosity was intense to inquire about the familiar escorts around them. Especially those pig warriors who have the same appearance as themselves, come from other tribes, and have taken refuge in the Niu tribe, what comes out of their mouths is the most convincing.

It's the food that's more important.

The food on the road is all hybrid pastry, which has not changed, and there is no soup and water that fools people, which is very real.

Maybe capitulation is the right choice.

With Burning Tooth City as the core, Tianhao concentrated an army of 80,000 here, of which there were as many as 30,000 auxiliary forces, most of whom were women.

After this battle, the Rock City Warband will be able to upgrade to a legion.

The importance of the Pingjun Intelligence Department was once again revealed———— compared to the two friendly armies of Thunder Horn City and Mishui City, Tianhao was very familiar with the situation of the various walled cities of the Pig Clan. distance, location, number of troops, and equipment...... Relying on this detailed information, he divided his 50,000 soldiers into warbands of varying numbers to launch precise attacks on the territory directly under the Pig King.

The fangs are gone.

The day before yesterday, I got the news: Liao Qiu and Gangdian have captured Fengya City, and they are currently gathering troops and arranging for a large number of prisoners of war to retreat.

Zonggu occupied Black Fang City for about the same time as Liao Qiu, he relied on flexible political skills to control people's hearts, and quickly stabilized the situation in the city, but the number of armed men escorting the prisoners to the direction of Mishui City was larger, and the current combat force available to Zonggu was only 40,000, not counting the auxiliary personnel for the time being.

The three sides continued to send cavalry to contact each other, and agreed to assemble at the agreed location in the south a month later to launch a general attack on Fangfang City.

……

Tiger Clan's territory, Yuanshui City.

Wu Yuan, who had a blue face, walked out of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion quickly and said nothing.

He genuinely wanted to help the Pig Clan tide over the difficulties and try his best to consume the military power of Rock City.

The Tiger Clan's capital, Blood Glory City, is far away from here, and even riding a horse would take two weeks. Back and forth, even if His Majesty the Tiger King is reasonable and willing to send reinforcements, the situation in Fangfang City is so tense that it is really hard to say whether it will be able to hold out until that time.

Wu Yuan decided to delay half a day's work in Yuanshui City, and persuaded the city lord here to send some reinforcements first to alleviate the difficulties of the pig clan.

Unfortunately, I didn't get the results I wanted.

"What's in it for me to send troops to help the Pig Clan? They are mercenaries who can make them sell their lives for just a fee. I'll admit that they were very good at fighting, but I never defaulted on the benefits promised to them. Hehe, you probably have some kind of misunderstanding about our relationship, it's just a transaction. ”

"The problem of the pig clan must be solved by themselves, at least I don't see what I can do by sending troops now. I've dealt with King Pig before, and he's a miser, the greedy kind. And the pigs are very good at eating, and they have a lot of food, maybe I have to put in a lot of food for this, so why bother? ”

"I don't understand, why do you want to get involved in such a thing? Since you are the clan witch of the Thunder Cow Tribe, why are you helping the people of the Pig Tribe? ”

"I advise you to dispel this idea and don't go to Blood Glory City. Your Majesty won't see you, not to mention that you can't even convince me, even if you buy off the people below, Your Majesty won't change your mind because of what you said. The Pig Tribes are consumables, and the only value of their existence is to rush to the front of the battle formation, to make way for the masters who employ them. ”

It's a brutal reality.

And for good reason.

Wu Yuan stood in the open space outside the City Lord's Mansion, looking up at the gray sky, his body stiffened, like an inanimate sculpture.

He was full of hatred for this damn season.

None of them went according to their hearts.

Am I doing something wrong?

The answer, of course, is no. The pride that comes out of his bones is so deep, not to mention that helping His Majesty the Lion King to implement the monetary system is closely related to his own vital interests. I also want power, I also want wealth, why do some people don't have to do anything, they can go far and stand tall casually?

Wu Yuan had no interest in how Rock City would rise. He only knew that the young city lord was in his way, a stumbling block that had to be smashed and completely crushed.

His pain is my joy.

That's a wonderful statement.

The retinue of the pigs stood opposite, leading their horses, and gathered together to whisper. They didn't understand exactly how long Wu Yuan was going to stand. As the minutes passed, the captain couldn't help it, walked over, lowered his voice and asked, "My lord, can you go?"

When he left Fangs City, the great master repeatedly told him: you must respect this cow clan wizard. But respect is not unconditional obedience, and the task of the Courier team is to ask for help from other tribes, not to stand here in a daze.

Wu Yuan slowly lowered his gaze and rubbed his eyes, feeling pain from staring at the hazy sky: "Let's go, let's leave here and go to the Broken Gold City."

"Broken Gold City?" The captain of the pig was surprised by this answer: "Isn't that the territory of the leonin?"

Wu Yuan, whose mentality had calmed down, nodded slightly, his eyes were gloomy, and his facial muscles were stiff: "The Yuanshui City Lord refuses to help, even if we rush to the Royal City, it is estimated that His Majesty the Tiger King's attitude will be similar to his." Instead of wasting our time, let's head straight from here to Leo Clan territory, and maybe try our luck. ”

Captain Pig was a little skeptical: "Are you sure?"

He didn't use honorifics.

Wu Yuan glanced at him, and the majesty of being a clan witch began to show: "In terms of treating the pig clan, there is a big difference between the lion clan and the tiger clan."

"What's the difference?" Captain Pig's curiosity is high.

Wu Yuan sneered and regained his confidence: "This is not a secret that ordinary people can listen to. You're not yet there to know everything. ”

Captain Pig's face blushed uncomfortably, he instinctively wanted to have a seizure, but Wu Yuan, who saw through his thoughts, sealed his mouth with a simple sentence.

"Don't forget, I'm a wizard."

Without the order of the Great Master, the captain of the pig would have wanted to draw his saber and cut off the head of this hated cunning cow tribesman right now.

"Alright, let's go to Broken Gold City now." He said stupidly, "I hope your guess is correct."

……

The royal capital of the pig tribe, the fangs of the city.

The atmosphere in the city became tense.

Pedestrians are rarely seen on the streets, and the attendance of armed patrol squads has tripled compared to before. The construction of towers began near the warehouses and granaries, and the archers rotated daily. Thousands of civilians, led by officers and soldiers, went out of the city to cut down trees, and large quantities of earth were brought into the city to fortify the city gates in a way peculiar to the pigs.

While everyone has their place, the level of coordination is far less than that of Rock City. Witchmane suppressed the news from outside the city, but the unusual practices had already been exposed. Panic and fear spread among the population, and people hoarded all kinds of supplies like crazy. The nobles and commanders had no choice but to forcibly suppress them by scolding and whipping.

The Princess's bedchamber.

A corpse lay on the floor of the spacious room. Judging by the clothes on the deceased's body, this was a maid.

The princess held a thick wooden stick in her hand and whipped the dead man like madness. There was no smile on her face, her twisted muscles and skin were chilling, her long, thick black hair fluttering through the air with each wave of her arm, sweat seeping from under her scalp, soaking through the roots and running down her fat cheeks.

"Damn slut!"

"How dare you defy me?"

"Why is everyone going against me?"

She fought for a long time, as if she wanted to vent her resentment. The tip of the stick had cracked, the back and buttocks of the corpse had become a blur of flesh and blood, the poor maid's head was tilted to one side, her lips were displaced, a few teeth were soaked in a pool of blood, and the broken fangs flew under the table a few meters away, lying alone.

The princess let out a beastly roar, and the dead would never respond, leaving her to wreak havoc.

Yongya sat quietly in her chair and watched the princess vent her anger at a corpse.

According to the aesthetics of the northern barbarians, he is an out-and-out beautiful man.

He is tall and muscular, with blue blood vessels bursting out on the surface of his thick thighs, round shoulders on both sides that are about the same radius as his head, no fat on his stomach, and beautiful abdominal muscles neatly arranged. I usually can't see it when I wear clothes, but when I take off my shirt and trousers and only wear close-fitting shorts, the whole person releases the power of bodybuilding, which belongs to the type that makes women want to pounce on it and bite a few bites.

Yongya is not a professional chef, especially since he is not even the most crappy chef according to the civilized age. However, the times are different, and the barbarians' understanding of delicious food is far less refined than in ancient times. The main thing is that it is cooked, edible, and the texture and taste are passable, and anyone can deserve the title of "chef".

His gaze is a little melancholy, the face of the British drama is as calm as water, and the fangs give people a sense of strength, like a generous and gentle brother.

It takes a long time to practice repeatedly to make these expressions and movements, which are very subtle. Tian Hao is very talented at teaching spies, and he loves the book "How to Be a Great Salesman". The protagonist of the book is an example of a successful counterattack from the bottom of society, and in the era when the Internet was not yet widespread, he spent a lot of time smiling in the mirror every day, just to smile at a strange housewife when he rang the doorbell...... He succeeded, and that smiling face was indeed very valuable, and his experience was praised by countless people of that era and became a role model.

It's as simple as seducing a woman, even if she's a princess.

The terrible madwoman finally ran out of strength, threw away the bloody stick, and sat down in her chair with her hair disheveled, panting heavily.

Yongya stood up, walked briskly and silently, walked to her side and sat down, opened his arms with the most gentle movements, and slowly took her into his arms.
