Not long after Wang Xiaotian successfully settled in White Horse City, the first snowstorm in the true sense of winter swept the entire Northern Wilderness.

This is a rare blizzard, the entire Northern Wilderness is completely covered by white snowflakes, the sky and the earth are the same color, even the most powerful monsters dare not go out to hunt in such weather, the orcs of the Northern Wilderness huddled together early, with fire and ale to dispel the cold that destroyed everything.

This is a blizzard that has been expected for a long time.

The only thing that caught Wang Xiaotian off guard was that he was trapped in White Horse City, the heavy snow briefly blocked the road between his Northern Wilderness Expeditionary Force and Gray Stone City, in such a harsh environment, those steel armor that could withstand all physical attacks would become the biggest enemy, and the cold heavy armor would continue to consume the only heat and physical strength of the soldiers.

From the perspective of the overall situation, in order to avoid large-scale unnecessary casualties, Wang Xiaotian chose to be stationed in White Horse City.

Thankfully.

After learning that White Horse City was easy to defend and difficult to attack, Wang Xiaotian not only transferred the troops of three banner regiments from Gray Rock City, but at the same time, more than 100,000 tons of grain were transported to Hulai Valley, and after tens of thousands of troops entered White Horse City, they at least did not have to worry about food anymore.

"My lord, there are still some remnants of nobles in the city, and they continue to attack our soldiers on patrol, and so far they have caused more than a dozen casualties. Rotes, the captain of the Second Banner Regiment in the north, reported with a serious expression that as a rare leopard warrior, Lotus once single-handedly overturned two ten-person squads on the opposite side in the border friction conflict between Bofei City and Fort Baier.

It is also Lotus who is a typical orc character, impulsive and warlike, but it has to be admitted that he is an extremely talented warrior, and he has shown amazing fighting talent in many battles. His old leader, Kodil, of the Four Spirits Legion, had a headache for a long time because of his impulsiveness, and finally there was really no way to transfer him out of Bofei City to the Second Banner Regiment and become a captain.

At this time, Wang Xiaotian was crawling in front of a desk full of documents with a headache, listening to Rotes's report, he was dealing with various documents in White Horse City, just like a brazier burning at Wang Xiaotian's feet, and his mood was as bad as a fire burning.

Hearing Lotters' report, Wang Xiaotian replied without raising his head, "What are you going to do?"

When Lotus heard this, his face showed a hint of violence, and he said coldly: "Xicheng District is the area with the most frequent attacks, since they like to resist so much, then we will raze the entire Xicheng District!"

Wang Xiaotian's pen to deal with the document paused, this violent and bloody words made him sigh, he put down the pen in his hand, looked at Lotus seriously, and said patiently: "Do you think I should use blood and fear to suppress the rebellion in the entire White Horse City?"

"Yes, my lord!" Lotus said without a hint of fluctuation, as if he was talking about killing some flies rather than discussing the lives and deaths of tens of thousands of people in a city.

Wang Xiaotian stared at him with a straight face, and said for a long time: "Remember one sentence, hatred and fear are only exchanged for betrayal and confrontation, and the people of White Horse City are terrified today, and if we really blindly use suppression to deal with these things, those merchants can overthrow the nobles, and they can also drive us away......!

Wang Xiaotian didn't say anything more, leaving these warm houses in such weather would definitely be a disaster.

"My lord, with all due respect," Lotus sneered, "We have tens of thousands of brave orc warriors, and those humans are just a bunch of farmers and workers, as long as you give an order, we can raze the entire White Horse City for you!"

"As long as I order the razing of White Horse City today, as long as one person escapes, then we are ready to accept the revenge of the entire human society!" Wang Xiaotian looked at Lotus sternly.

Not bad.

He does have the force to suppress everything, but don't forget that their army is almost all orcs, and humans are xenophobic, and if they don't deal with the grievances in their hearts, the result of the outbreak will only be Wang Xiaotian and they will be overwhelmed by the endless waves of people.

"Okay, you go back first, arrange more soldiers to patrol, remember, to maintain law and order in the city, at least, on the surface, I don't want to see a single riot in the city!"

Wang Xiaotian waved his hand a little tiredly and motioned for him to leave.

............

After accepting White Horse City, Wang Xiaotian did not feel a trace of joy, and after completely taking over this stall, he found that it was simply a mess that was even more difficult to get out of than a quagmire.

All over Whitehorse.

A large number of civilians are unemployed, production in the city has almost come to a standstill, and worst of all, the city is running out of food.

If Wang Xiaotian can't solve the food problem, after the first case of starvation appears, these foreign orcs are afraid that they will repeat the mistakes of Lesterlo.

In the current situation, even with the support of the merchants, it will not be of much use.

Although Wang Xiaotian has urgently distributed a part of the military rations to relieve the civilians in the city, this is not a solution, if the heavy snow outside lasts for a month, without support from Gray Rock City, I am afraid that half of the people in White Horse City will starve to death.

It's not just a matter of food.

Some of the nobles in the city are not at peace, many nobles find it difficult to accept the betrayal of the merchants and the resistance of the workers, even if the entire city is taken over by Wang Xiaotian, they are still creating chaos and spreading rumors in private, which has caused some small troubles for Wang Xiaotian to completely control White Horse City.

And look at Wang Xiaotian's side.

He had few allies other than the force in his hands, and the merchants did not trust them.

Although it was the merchants who overthrew the aristocracy, they did not trust the foreign rulers, and many people were pushed by Jonas just to get out of the predicament, in fact, in the entire city, Wang Xiaotian had almost no allies.

Neutral merchants, rebellious nobles, and numb commoners.

This was the rotten nature that was hidden beneath the majestic and prosperous exterior of White Horse City, and it was a long winter, and Wang Xiaotian felt that he would rather fight in the snow with those armed enemies than sit in front of this mountain of papers to keep warm.

The flames in the brazier were still burning, the snow outside was getting heavier and heavier, and in the gloomy weather, Wang Xiaotian's mood was becoming more and more depressed, and as more and more things appeared in White Horse City, the irritability in his heart was piling up little by little.

And many people in Whitehorse don't know that certain merchants and nobles are pushing Whitehorse City into an irretrievable abyss step by step!
