At nightfall, in an igloo in the soul beast barracks.

A tall figure lifted the curtain of the animal skin door and stepped in.

On the ice bed, the disheveled Xu Taiping hurriedly pushed away the frost beauty Shengshi on his body and looked at the figure at the door of the igloo.

Sheng Shi's eyebrows showed a hint of displeasure, but he found that the person who broke in turned out to be the leader of the army.

Cao Jia silently watched Xu Taiping and Sheng Shi for a long time, and for the combination of Ice Soul Yin and Frost Beauty, Cao Jia's heart was a little complicated.

He would not do what the empire did, tying up the two of them and parading them through the streets, so that everyone could see their evil deeds, and cut them with a thousand knives in full view of everyone.

Jia Jia just... Well, I thought of my parents.

The parents back then were also so brave, they didn't care about the world's eyes, and broke the taboo, but in the end they fell into a different place and were spurned by everyone.

"Commander." Xu Taiping straightened his clothes and stood up.

Cao Jia came back to her senses and said, "Follow me." ”

With that, Jia Jia turned around and opened the animal skin curtain and walked out.

Xu Taiping turned his head and glanced at the ice bed.

The frost beauty, who should have been cold, has a slightly red face and a puffing appearance at the moment, but it has a different style.

Who will be happy when a good thing is disturbed?

The frost beauty whose racial characteristics are already kings, and if she continues to be disturbed like this, I'm afraid she will really rebel......

The frost beauty forcibly suppressed the impulse in her heart, reshaped and conjured up a beautiful snow daku, got up and got out of bed, stepped on the snow barefoot, and followed Xu Taiping out of the igloo.

Cao Jia glanced at the frost beauty who had followed herself, didn't say anything, and walked out of the camp with the two of them.

"At three o'clock in the morning, the army marched." In the dense forest, Cao Jia whispered.

Xu Taiping was half a position behind Cao Jia, looking respectful, but after hearing this, he was shocked: "Tomorrow morning? Why didn't you tell me in advance? ”

Cao Jia glanced at Xu Taiping coldly: "Didn't I inform you now?" ”

Xu Taiping opened his mouth, and finally lowered his head, looking low and pleasing to the eyes.

Seeing Xu Taiping's appearance, Cao Jia snorted coldly: "We have to abandon many subordinates, apes, ghouls, snow lions and tigers, moon leopards, ......."

Every soul beast was once a treasure of Gu Jia, and it was also the capital of Gu Jia to settle down in this chaotic region.

It's just that at this time, it is difficult for Jia Jia to take them away, you know, the snow vortex is not said to be entered, and the way back is more difficult.

Xu Taiping's thoughts turned sharply in his heart, and he said: "Beast clan, you can have as many as you want, just return to the vortex and tame the wild ones."

The commander can choose some high-quality beast leaders, there are 18 cypress spirit tree girls in the army, and there are dozens of ice crystal wings and snow wind eagles. ”

"There is no need to comfort me." Cao Jia suddenly spoke, interrupting Xu Taiping's words.

The wind and snow of the level of the snow vortex will inevitably blow away a lot of soldiers, they are not like the Qingshan Army, a team of hundreds of people, each with a snow soul flag, forcibly freezing the wind and snow.

There are a lot of snow creatures that are hard to come by outside of the whirlpool.

For example, the special skills of Snow Soul Banner and Snow Rapid Drill, and for example, the vast majority of plant-based soul beasts, they take root on the ground, and it is difficult for them to appear outside the whirlpool.

Similar to the Bailing Tree Girl tribe thirty kilometers outside Wan'an Pass, it is a large group that was formed after an unknown number of years.

That takes time to precipitate, and the robe has been on the edge of this vortex with extremely rich soul beast resources, pulling out the line of troops and filtering for so long, and it has only recruited less than 20 cypress spirit tree girls.

Moreover, they are also kind by nature, free from the army of soul beasts, and never participate in battles.

Cao Jia suddenly spoke: "Will Xu Fenghua let us go back safely?" ”

Xu Taiping: "She can't move." ”

"Huh." Cao Jia sneered, "Can't move, how did she appear in the Bailing Tree Girl Village back then?" ”

Xu Taiping was silent for a long time, and then said: "We swept through the sky and flew towards the whirlpool, she won't make a move." ”

Jia Jia: "Where does your faith come from?" ”

Whether I have faith or not, you have made up your mind to return to the vortex, and you have to act at three o'clock in the morning, don't you?

Xu Taiping thought silently in his heart, but said in his mouth: "If the leader doesn't mind, I can try to negotiate with Rong Taotao." ”

"Huh?" Jia turned her head to look at Xu Taiping suddenly, with an incredulous expression.

On the side, Sheng Shi frowned slightly and looked at Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping nodded lightly: "Xu Fenghua's son, Rong Taotao." He's a classmate of mine, and he's also a snow burner. ”

Of course, Jia Jia knew who Rong Taotao was, and he even had a grudge against Rong Taotao, and he wanted to kill Rong Taotao as soon as possible.

Back then, the elite army of soul beasts was killed by this kid's flower, and lost countless good hands.

If it weren't for the fact that Cao Jia gained a firm foothold by the vortex and recruited a large number of new soul beasts to supplement his strength, I am afraid that it would be difficult for Cao Jia to rise in this life.

Cao Jia grabbed Xu Taiping's collar with one hand and held it in front of him: "You asked me to ask the enemy for help?" ”

"It's not help, it's cooperation." Xu Taiping's face remained unchanged, and even his voice was very steady, as if he couldn't feel the terrifying aura of the tyrant in front of him.

Such a scene was seen by Sheng Shi, and she even felt a feeling of excitement.

She likes Xu Taiping's performance at this time too much, with a calm mind and a strong heart.

In front of Cao Jia, those soul beasts whose bodies trembled and knelt on the ground begging for mercy, how did they compare with Xu Taiping?

Xu Taiping felt the irritable snort sprayed on his face by Jia Jia, and said, "Win-win cooperation." Human beings like this, at least Huaxia likes this. ”

Although Cao Jia's eyes were white, it did not interfere with others to perceive the anger in his heart: "How to win? ”

"Know what the purpose of the Snow Burning Army is, and then give them some sweetness appropriately." Xu Taiping organized the language, "The Xue Burning Army just wants to clean up this area, and those beast clans, we were going to abandon them, and we can't take them away." ”

Cao Jia was stunned in her heart, Xu Taiping wanted to ......

Xu Taiping: "No one is willing to sacrifice their lives in vain, we return to the Snow Realm Vortex, the human army does not say it, but it may be very supportive in their hearts."

We went to the Snowy Vortex to get out of the way for the human army and let Xu Fenghua turn a blind eye. And those orcs that can't be taken away under the vortex are gifts for the human army. ”

"Huh." Cao Jia smiled angrily and said, "What a vicious heart, my military advisor." ”

Xu Taiping didn't think so, fifty steps and a hundred steps of laughter? Aren't you going to abandon the orcs in the end?

Of course, Xu Taiping thought so in his heart, but he couldn't say it on his lips.

He analyzed from another angle: "No matter what, we can't take away all the beast clans, do you want to cheapen the other forces?" ”

Jia Jia: !!

Xu Taiping: "You and I both know that once we leave, those beast clans will inevitably be taken over by several other forces.

We have a blood feud with those two forces, and you don't want to fund them. ”

Looking at Cao Jia's expression, Xu Taiping took advantage of the victory to pursue: "Cao Jia, you are a person who does great things." We have a clear and ambitious goal, a dream of building an empire.

As long as you can accomplish the goal, process and means, you don't need to care.

For us, it was just abandoning the beasts who were about to be abandoned, but in exchange for the human army giving way, Xu Fenghua didn't make a move. Why not? ”

Slowly, Cao Jia let go of the hand that grabbed Xu Taiping's collar and put him down.

Yes, abandon those beasts who were about to be abandoned, in exchange for a safe return to the vortex.

Xu Taiping continued: "If the path into the vortex is smooth, we can even take some more beasts with us. ”

Cao Jia stroked the long hair that was blown by the north wind and said, "That's why you asked me, why didn't you notify you in advance of your departure in the early morning?" You've had a plan in mind, haven't you? ”

Xu Taiping: "I'm your military advisor, and this is what I should have considered." Preserve our strength to the fullest extent and return to the vortex to complete revenge and rebuild the empire. ”

Cao Jia silently looked into the distance: "Human army, how easy is it to cooperate." ”

Xu Taiping said, "At least let me give it a try, Jia Jia." ”

Then, there was silence in the forest.

After a while, Jia Jia said, "What do you want to do?" ”

Xu Taiping: "I'll take a team, go directly to the human army, and negotiate with Rong Taotao." ”

Jia decisively refused: "No, the risk is too great, I can't afford to lose it." ”

Xu Taiping looked at Cao Jia's back and listened to such words......

He thought for a while and said, "Then the army will be drawn out, with the whole army as my backing, and negotiate with Rong Taotao before the battle." ”

Cao Jia's face was gloomy and uncertain, and he hesitated for a long time, and said, "Okay! ”

With that, Cao Jia turned to leave.

Behind Xu Taiping's back, a pair of arms were entwined, and he only felt that his earlobes were choked.

Shengshi this guy......

A small and fragmented voice filled my ears: "Xu Taiping, Xu Taiping... Do you know how attractive you just was?

I'm getting more and more fond of you. You are the best slave I have ever seen in my life. ”

Xu Taiping: "......"

In this life? How many years have you lived? Not even 20 years old, right? What have you seen?

I should really drag Rong Taotao in front of you and let you see what a truly good slave looks like......

That's the one that can bloom with lotus flowers......

Thinking of this, Xu Taiping's face was a little strange.

Frost Beauty can only control one slave, and she controls Rong Taotao's words, so that she doesn't have to worry about being afraid and harassed by her every day.

Xu Taiping gently pushed Sheng Shi away: "Let me be quiet." ”

But Sheng Shi's arms are getting tighter and tighter.

Xu Taiping: "Alone. ”

Sheng Shi directly pulled his body, and his cold red lips came up.

Xu Taiping: "......"

After a long time, Sheng Shi finally left alone under Xu Taiping's repeated requests.

Xu Taiping had already shown the wisdom of an adult Ice Soul Guide, and he already knew how to get along with Sheng Shi. It is useless to come to the hard, and you can only submit to the soft and plead.

But as he just said, as long as the end can be achieved, the process and means are not important.

Obey softly and beg, he is no longer the self-esteem teenager he was back then.

Then again, there's such a thing as self-esteem......

What's the use?

After Sheng Shi left, a voice also came from behind: "You are playing freely. ”

Xu Taiping: "No, I'm working together for a win-win situation. ”

He Tian asked with a cold snort: "Do you really think that the Xue Burning Army will cooperate with the Soul Beast Army?" ”

Xu Taiping: "He Tian asked." The task is for everyone to accomplish together.

From start to finish, you've been pushing me along and pushing me to accomplish all of our goals. I worked hard to finish my part, and now, it's up to you and Rong Taotao. ”

He Tianwen looked at Xu Taiping's back and fell silent for a while.

Xu Taiping turned around and looked at the empty dense forest: "He is the son of Xu Fenghua, and you are the son of the commander-in-chief of the Xue Burning Army."

I am your partner, not your slave. I've worked so hard and it's up to you. ”

In front of the emptiness, a figure suddenly appeared.

The snow camouflage, the training hat, and the unkind face under the brim.

"As I said, it's a win-win." Xu Taiping opened his mouth and said, "The soul beast army will have more capital rising in the vortex.

And to avoid the encounter between the Soul Beast Army and the Snow Burning Army, and to avoid a big battle, there will be countless soldiers of the Snow Burning Army who will be spared doom. ”

Xu Taiping continued: "I didn't say that the soul beast army would definitely win, but you know the strength of the soul beast army very well. Once the war starts, the Xue Ran Army will inevitably suffer heavy losses, and the corpses of countless soldiers will be buried here.

And the last thing you want to see is the death of the soldiers of the Xue Burning Army, right? ”

He Tian asked: "......"

Temptation, to the point.

To catch people is to catch the heart!

Xu Taiping lured Cao Jia with profits, and also firmly grasped He Tianwen's heart.

In fact, it is not Rong Taotao who can really make the human army give way, but the man in front of him - He Tianwen!

After a long time, He Tianwen raised his hand and pressed it on Xu Taiping's head, with a strange smile on his face: "It seems that I have cultivated a big trouble for myself." ”

Xu Taiping didn't like others to press his head very much, but at this time, he didn't have any reaction, just said: "At three o'clock in the morning, the army will be marched." ”

He Tianwen glanced at Xu Taiping deeply, and his figure disappeared again.

Father?

Maybe... It's time to meet him, too.

Meanwhile, under the night sky, a team of men and horses galloped through the snowfield.

Looking at the construction site in front of her, Gao Lingwei said, "Slow down, camp here tonight and rest." ”

The Qingshan Army wandered outside for an afternoon, went around in circles, and returned to the battlefield before that.

Obviously, Gao Lingwei was still a little relieved about this city construction force.

The Aoyama Army, which has great autonomy, can determine its own work and rest time and patrol range without a clear order from its superiors.

Back on the battlefield during the day, this place has changed.

The corpses of the soldiers have been escorted back to the city pass, and in this vast snowfield, there is already a huge city wall of more than 300 meters standing here.

The desert soul skill is indeed an infrastructure magic skill!

In addition to the city construction troops, there is also an additional city wall guard unit guarding here, which also shows the determination of the Xue Ran Army.

If you don't let you build this wall, you have to build it!

"Tut-tut......" Rong Taotao sat cross-legged on the trampling snow rhino and saw this strange picture that he had never seen before.

The moon in the night sky, the silent snowfield, and the abrupt section of the city wall.

There are also figures moving up and down the city wall, some are quietly on duty, and some are busy repairing.

Against the backdrop of the lantern paper lantern,

Everything was so harmonious, and the night was so peaceful......
