The day after the fighting, the fire was still burning, but it was under control. Zhang Quan led the orcs to use the pre-dug isolation belt in the north and east, and the forest fire, which covered thousands of square kilometers, ignited and extinguished quickly, and the things that could be burned were almost burned, and naturally there was no stamina.

The scorched earth filled the sky, the thick smoke filled the forest, and the choking smoke drifted inland, filling the wasteland, making every orc uncomfortable to death.

The war was fought like this, it was beyond the control of Zhang Quan's department, and the battle line stretched for dozens of kilometers from south to north, and there were small-scale battles everywhere, and the orcs of various tribes spread out to control, forming a huge encirclement network. The elves who escaped from the forest fire were beaten to death by the orcs as soon as they showed up, and Zhang Quan sent out the heralds and ordered them to capture the prisoners alive, but when his orders were passed down one by one, most of them were still dead in the end.

Zhang Quan led his headquarters to pursue south, and saw many elven corpses along the way, and the orcs threw the elves' corpses on the side of the road very casually, not caring at all, and immediately became angry:

"When we had a meeting before the war, didn't we say that we would be captured alive? I also specifically emphasized to the tribal chiefs, "

Otilus had a difficult face beside him,

"But, after all, this is not our own people! None of these tribes are our own direct tribes. It's hard to fully execute our orders below. He was also unaccustomed to the ferocity of the orcs of the Leopard Alliance, but as the patriarch of the former Leopard tribe, he knew that this was inevitable.

The history of hatred between elves and orcs is so long that it is impossible to tell the difference between right and wrong.

But these words made Zhang Quan's heart more and more choked, he was used to having full control over his subordinates, and he felt very uncomfortable with this situation.

It seems that this leopard alliance is going to swallow it in the stomach as soon as possible, and this foreshadowing is actually almost there! He thought, those gentle methods are too gentle, suitable for earthlings, orcs are really not used to it, maybe these guys with rough personalities may be more suitable for the means of overlord * strong * bow .

"We want elven captives, the more the better, for you, I don't need to say more about this truth, you should know what we mean."

Otilus replied:

"Yes, I know your intentions, this war, we have won, and now is the time to think about how to end it. There are more elven captives, the more bargaining chips we have with the elves, and we can't enter the elven forest, but if we can capture more elven captives, then we have the bargaining chips to force the Northern Elf Court to bow to us. ”

"Yes! Before a war has even begun, his commander should be able to think of how to end it. What kind of benefits we can gain is what matters most. ”

Zhang Quan has always admired the strategic talent of this guy Otilus,

"But that's not all there is to the Elven captives, and we should be able to get more out of them. Think about it, what do we orcs need most? ”

"What is needed?" Otilus was a little stunned.

Zhang Quan opened his mouth and said.

"Oh, have you forgotten? I thought you had been thinking about it all along, we orcs needed knowledge and food, didn't we? And in both cases, the elves are able to satisfy us. ”

"Huh? So, my lord, do you want to gather a large army and conquer ...... Conquer the forest? When Otrius heard this, he didn't know why, although he couldn't believe it, but he was also a little faintly excited. He thought that Zhang Quan really wanted to lead the army to attack the forest.

"No, not to conquer!" Zhang Quan's words made him a little disappointed,

"Conquering the elves now, it's obviously impossible. Although we have prepared some means, these means are far from enough to start a full-scale war with the elves, what we can do now is to cooperate, and cooperate with the elves in all aspects, with me as the main body. ”

"Cooperation!"

"Yes, cooperation! We orcs can no longer be confined to this little wasteland. I think this battle should be able to establish peace between us and the elves on our southern frontier for decades to come.

Our purpose is not only to defeat the elves, but most importantly, to open the gate of the elven forest and the shackles that have been blocked by the outside civilization. We orcs want to go out and open our eyes to the world, not only to contact with the elves, go out to learn the advanced knowledge outside, but also to introduce the outside civilization, learn the cultivation and magic knowledge of the elves, and even human forces to communicate, we are not excluded.

This world has advanced too much, and we orcs have fallen too far behind, locked up in this wasteland for hundreds of years, and we have long been forgotten by this world. In the eyes of the entire continent, I am afraid that we orcs have already become uncivilized barbarians. Such a wasteland cannot get out of the strange circle of poverty and backwardness.

We have to go out and tell the world that we also have civilization and that we are also one of the masters of this world!

We can fall behind, but we can learn from others with an open mind, and we must firmly believe that we will not be so backward forever. If we want to make progress, we must first admit that we are not as good as others.

Without opening this door, our orc civilization will never develop.

And in front of us, there is a best opportunity. ”

Zhang Quan's words were moved, but he said that Otilus, who had been listening to him all the time, was enthusiastic, and each of these words seemed to be said in the heart of this ideal nationalist orc. See, how well it is said: we have to go out and tell the world that we are also the masters of this world!

As an orc, there is nothing more heart-warming and impassioned than such words, he was a mercenary in the human world, how many years of history of being insulted and despised, how many years of hard work, how much he returned to the tribe after thinking that he had gained, and how he helped his people develop, but the result was a ruined and betrayed by everyone around him.

Everything that happened in the tribe, for a moment, made Oterus really disheartened! I thought that there was no way for a person like him to live in this world.

But now, everything Zhang Quan has done has made him see that his persistence is correct, his persistence is not worthless, his past ideals are recognized by more powerful people, and he is firmly implemented step by step in a down-to-earth manner, and the future will be greater and more brilliant! Even more ambitious than he had imagined.

This tangible affirmation shattered his defenses almost instantly. At this moment, he was almost immediately about to shed tears, and an indescribable sorrow stirred in his own heart, which was happiness, the joy of an idealist.

He looked excitedly at the human leader of the orcs, and was deeply grateful for what he had done. At this moment, Zhang Quan became so tall in his heart!

……

But he didn't know that when Zhang Quan said this, he didn't think of him at all, Zhang Quan was riding on a horse, looking into the distance, as if there was no focus. In Zhang Quan's heart, what he is thinking about at the moment is the history of another world, no matter what kind of civilization, if it is closed, it will be backward, and if it is backward, it will be beaten, this is a lesson that every Chinese person on the earth keeps in mind!
