War is ruthless, people will die, every time there is a war, someone dies, if you stand in a completely just God's perspective, then everyone will say that both sides on the battlefield have their own positions, each for their masters, who lives and who dies, who can be blamed?

But generally say this kind of thing, out of ten, basically ten of them are standing and talking without backache, only knowing that they say some taken for granted all day long, how do they understand the mood of the person concerned?

Man is a perceptual creature, with delicate and complex emotions, even changeable, who can say that he knows who completely?

Before the death of the leopard, Xia Qi swore a poisonous oath on the spot, wanting to cut Wang Ting to death with a thousand knives, and in fact he did so.

But what is the reason for this? The reason is that the royal court cut the leopard into a human stick and hung it on the wall!

In a normal battlefield fight, Xia Qi will be sad and sad, but in the end he will choose to accept it, because this is the normal state of war and his bottom line.

However, Wang Ting's actions at that time undoubtedly crossed this bottom line! That's why it will attract the end of a thousand cuts.

And this time, Qin Yi's death is subtly different, Xia Qi knows that for this matter, the most unrelieved is Li Qing and the soldiers of Tongcheng.

So he handed over this matter to Li Qing to do, and also gave Li Qing a reason to convince himself.

One thing came to an end for the time being, Xia Qi asked Richard to go down and appease the other werewolves, anyway, with Richard here, the wolf clan shouldn't be in too much trouble.

Imprisoning orcs, no matter how you think about it, is also a troublesome thing, the most troublesome of them are the four elephant people, the ten-meter-tall giant size, and the added strength is infinite, no matter from which point of view, they are all troublesome characters.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the four of them are now due to excessive blood loss, and their bodies are weak and they can't make a fuss.

But the threat still exists, and I'm afraid that after a while, when they recover from it, something will happen.

Although the elephant is a relatively docile animal, but the elephant man is an orc, he is a little uncertain, Xia Qi feels that he needs to make some preparations to prevent trouble.

And the most convenient way is naturally to ask Richard directly, and by the way, let it talk about the situation of several other orc races.

Facts have proved that the elephant people among the orcs, under normal circumstances, are indeed a relatively kind race, after being defeated and captured, as long as they do not abuse them and appease them a little, they should not cause any major problems.

At the same time, there is Richard on the wolf clan's side, so naturally there is no problem, and the trouble is the lion, kobold, and minotaur.

In the orc world, kobolds are a cunning and ferocious race, to use the most direct example, they werewolves hunt to be fed, while kobolds, they may just be bored and simply want to kill prey to pass the time.

However, it is simple to want the kobolds to be obedient and submit, that is, to show their strength, let them know that they are powerful, and they will be obedient, at least that's what their wolf clan did when they annexed the kobold group.

As for the Minotaur side, it's another situation, according to the personality, the Minotaur is also a relatively kind race, but these guys are more silly, or rather stunned, and their brains are a little tendoned, and if they want them to surrender, it is estimated that they will have to waste some means.

When Duoduo dealt with the Minotaurs, he used the method of agitation, stimulated those Minotaurs with words, and made the first warrior of the Minotaur tribe stand up and fight Richard.

If Richard loses, the wolf clan withdraws their troops, and if the minotaur loses, then they surrender to the wolf clan and serve the wolf clan.

After all, the strength of the Minotaur race has never been weak, and if the war starts, the wolf clan is estimated to have to pay a lot of price, and Duoduo obviously took this into account, so he played some tricks.

At that time, the Minotaur side obviously did not want the war to affect their tribes, so a verbal agreement was established.

In the end, there was no doubt that Richard relied on his dexterity and speed to win the heads-up victory.

From a heads-up point of view, this is undoubtedly a fair battle, and Richard doesn't feel that he is invincible, but its nimble and wandering style of play obviously makes the Minotaurs a little unconvinced, and in their opinion, this is all a small trick.

However, forced by the agreement agreed before, the Minotaur finally surrendered to the wolf clan, and there was no rebellion after that, from this point of view, it is a quite trustworthy race.

After all, according to Xia Qi's speculation, if it was Richard who lost the heads-up at that time, then Duoduo would probably turn his face as soon as he turned around.

The kobold and the minotaur did not make any waves, and soon chose to surrender.

The patriarchs of both races were already dissatisfied with the unfair treatment of the previous Duoduo.

In the face of the previous war, the kobold had already been frightened, so in the face of surrender, he chose to surrender without saying a word.

The minotaur is a little more troublesome than the kobold, the patriarch of the minotaur is called Niu Ben, and in the face of surrender, it put forward a condition, that is, to fight with it, as long as it agrees, it chooses to surrender.

For its request, Xia Qi nodded in agreement.

Facing the bear and the violent bear who wanted to be the first to shoot, Xia Qi chose the two to take turns to fight.

Bears and Stormbears are both power players, and the same is true for Niu Ben.

Compared with the previous fight with Richard, this time, it can be regarded as a good fight, but unfortunately, whether it is a bear or a violent bear, it has not fought, and then honestly chose to surrender.

Among them, the most surprising was the lion clan, as the former descendants of Duoduo, they didn't even have the slightest objection, and directly chose to surrender.

This is actually very easy to understand, if the lion king is defeated, then the challenger will naturally be the new challenger.

A big battle has just ended, and the things waiting for Xia Qi to deal with can be directly piled up into a small mountain, and the casualties of the troops are still being counted, but for the statistical results, Xia Qi is already mentally prepared.

However, he didn't even have time to be heavy, and he still had a lot of things to do before the specific casualty figures came out, such as now, he was rushing to Tongcheng with the minister of the engineering department and a team of people.

The city wall and city gate on the west side of the copper city are still in good condition, but the city gate mechanism was burned down by a fire, and after entering the city, everyone quickly walked towards the east city gate.

The buildings and houses along the road were more or less damaged, however, these were obviously nothing compared to the eastern walls of the Copper City.

I saw that on the east side of the city wall, the entire outside of the wall was already covered with several huge cracks, and even some of them had collapsed directly, and the whole state was close to half destruction.

According to Li Qing and Richard's accounts, during the battle between the two sides, there seemed to be a sudden series of explosions on the wall, and the eastern wall was undoubtedly blown up at that time.

Of course, the damage caused by the elephant man to the city wall with the giant wood during the day and Li Qing's fire obviously also accounted for part of the reason.

In this era, Xia Qi didn't find such a thing as gunpowder, and the only thing that could explode was the oil drum, which should have ignited the oil in the drum.

As a military material in Great Xia, this fire oil has a very high concentration, and a little spark can be ignited directly, plus it is contained in the sealed space of the wooden barrel, so it can't explode if you want to.

As for the specific situation, it is unknown, after all, there are no witnesses at all, and even if there is, there is basically no chance of survival after that serial explosion.

According to Richard, because of this explosion, all the red fox archers they had left behind on the wall were wiped out.

After sighing a few times in his heart, Xia Qi glanced back at the head of the engineering department who had a sore face.

"Can this wall be repaired within a month?"

"If you send more people......

When he said this, the head of the engineering department had a completely tearless expression.

It's going to blow up the liver again......

"How many building materials and manpower are needed, you can say that the Copper City is the first line of defense on the eastern border, and this wall must be repaired before the next invasion of outsiders can enter."

In the face of Xia Qi's serious tone and expression, coupled with the mention of the invasion of outsiders, the Minister of Engineering, who realized the seriousness of the matter, said solemnly: "Your Majesty, rest assured, Weichen will definitely repair this city wall within a month!" ”

"Good."

Looking at the resolute old minister, Xia Qi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Do a good job, I won't treat you badly." Notice, this month, the salaries of all members of the engineering department will be doubled, and after you have completed the repair of the walls of the copper city and the tin city, I will have another reward. ”

After a simple encouragement and reassurance to He Shu, Xia Qi hurried up and rushed back to Xicheng that day.

At this time, the specific casualty report has also been counted, and this battle has caused the total strength of Great Xia to lose nearly half!

The heavy blow hit him directly in the heart, making it difficult for him to breathe. After calming down, Xia Qi's voice slowly sounded.

"After three days, a military funeral will be held outside Xicheng, and the injury allowance and pension for the casualties will be distributed as soon as possible."

"Yes."

After a guard beside him answered, he walked out of Xia Qi's temporary office quickly to give orders.

At the same time as one of the guards ran out to give the order, one of the guards guarding outside also walked in quickly, "Your Majesty, Zhang Liang, the commander of the cavalry, asks to see you." ”

"Let him in."

The people who rode were here to escort Duoduo back to Bactria City.

"Weichen Zhang Liang, see Your Majesty!"

Looking at Zhang Liang, who was dusty, Xia Qi raised his hand, "I've worked hard for you along the way." ”

"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern, Weichen is not hard."

"This time to escort Duoduo, you should be more careful along the way, just in case, I will ask Storm Bear to escort people along the road."

"Wechen understands."

After some advice, looking at Zhang Liang who had withdrawn, Xia Qi was worried about another thing.

That Duoduo, after using the World Fragment to trigger the special civilization of the orc civilization, also turned into a lion man because of a genetic mutation.

Then when the all-out war is over and the orc civilization is swallowed by himself, he won't also genetically mutate into some orc race, right?

Thinking of this, Xia Qi shuddered, and at the same time fell into a tangle.
