Solomon didn't know what was going on in the Horn of Plenty, and even if he did, he probably wouldn't have cared much.

From his personal point of view, he actually hoped that Lanita would survive, so that he could better explain to Zebulun and the Wizarding Society.

But he thinks he's done everything he can to do, and Lanita was caught because of his mistakes, and it has nothing to do with him.

As the commander-in-chief, he risked his life and personally went to exchange the captured Wing Clan girl back.

If you can do this, even if Lanita really dies in the end, it will be difficult for Zebulun to use this matter to make trouble and remove him from the post of commander of the expeditionary force.

As for the wizards, there is a little more trouble on the other side, but those wizards are also a very realistic and cold bunch, and if Lanita is still alive, they may come to him for trouble.

But after death, there is no need for conflict between the two sides.

Solomon no longer wanted to think about it, and instead focused on the war at hand.

As soon as they entered the western frontier, they encountered the enemy.

The sneak attackers hid in the woods and swamps, attacking the army as they passed.

However, once the attackers react, they will quickly retreat, taking advantage of the complex surrounding environment to avoid pursuit and detection.

Of course, their hiding place was not without flaws, and Solomon sent Winged warriors to cooperate with those dwarves and imperial noble allies in the sky, and finally found all twenty-five sneak attackers in the woods.

They were driven out into the open space outside and knelt in a row.

The Winged warriors used them to compete in archery, and one by one, the captives fell to the ground with the sound of the bowstrings quivering.

Most of them were shot and killed on the spot, and those who had their breath left had their heads cut off by those who came to inspect them.

The Wing Clan was so excited about it that they even stripped the knight who led the group and gave him a wooden sword to force him to choose an opponent to fight according to chivalric tradition.

There is no doubt that those WingClan warriors have the absolute upper hand in this hilarious duel.

However, they were in no hurry to kill their opponents, and in the end the knight was shot by a dozen arrows before he died in agony.

Solomon was not pleased with this, not because he felt that his warriors were too cruel, but because he felt that he had delayed the capture and execution of the twenty-five men for too long.

It wasn't until dusk that the army moved again, and it didn't go far before they encountered another sneak attack.

So they started to search on the spot, but this time it was already dark halfway through the search, so they had to give up for the time being, and surrounded the swamp, and prepared to look for it again tomorrow.

But Solomon frowned.

These enemies are small groups, their actions are mainly harassing, they suddenly appear with the help of the terrain, whether they succeed or not, they will disappear quickly, and the damage they can do each time is actually very limited.

And in order to capture their army, it takes a lot of energy and time.

The Wing Clan commander vaguely sensed that the purpose of these men's presence might just be to slow them down.

So early the next morning, Solomon changed his strategy and ordered the noble lords to send cavalry to roam around the army, and they did not need to annihilate the sneak attackers, just drive them away.

This trick quickly worked out, and the speed of the army was increased.

The next morning he came to the first town, where the lord himself opened the gates and led his two sons out of the city to meet them as a sign of submission.

They prepared six chests of gold, two chests of jewels, and three hundred young virgins.

But they were not able to see Solomon, and only a dwarf named Willy came forward to accept the gift.

Then unceremoniously led people to ransack their town.

The lord and his two sons stood outside the city in embarrassment, watching the dwarves carry all sorts of goods out of the city, listening to the weeping and wailing from the other side of the wall.

It was not until the goods were piled up like a hill that the dwarf named Mighty came back and found the lord, and asked him to send the goods to the Horn of Plenty with a wagon and carriage.

After listening to Willy's words, the lord's face turned green.

What is the matter, his territory has been ransacked, and he has to be helped carry the loot by the robbers who have plundered him.

Perhaps the only consolation was that the dwarf named Willy also said that they had only taken half of the goods this time, and had left him some money.

However, before the lord could rejoice, another Winged Tribesman approached him and told him to take good care of the remaining half of the goods, and when Solomon conquered the western border, he would send someone to count and take it away.

When the lord heard this, he felt that his heart was dead, and he couldn't help but regret that he hadn't listened to Ilea in the first place, and chose to resist.

However, after seeing the army in front of him, he felt that resistance would not end well, and although it was shameful to surrender, at least he could save his life anyway.

In short, Solomon's soldiers took the first town in the west without blood, and he also sent people to collect most of the food in the city, which effectively alleviated the problem of food shortage for the army.

After that, Solomon took little rest and chose to move on.

This time, however, they were in some trouble, and the attackers were still coming out of the woods, but this time there were unusually large numbers, a full three hundred.

The cavalry patrolling nearby was taken down by them as soon as they saw it, and then they set fire to some of the grain and grass.

It's not much, but it's enough to irritate people.

The main reason is that the number of attackers in the previous waves was not large, which made everyone relax their vigilance, but they didn't expect that the opposite side suddenly held back the waves.

This time Solomon didn't choose to forget it anymore, even intellectually, this person can't cause more harm, if it's just to quickly conquer the West, it's more appropriate to leave it alone.

However, not everyone can think rationally, and if they are left alone, it will undoubtedly affect the morale of the army.

So it took Solomon another half a day, but this time he found less than a hundred.

Since this army was scattered, the remaining 200 people did not know where they had gone, and those who were captured did not know.

Solomon only learned from them that most of them were from the Red Tower City and were members of the Tereles family, while the rest were warriors from some minor noble families.

Solomon had all the families behind them written down, intending to slaughter them all at that time.

He left a thousand dwarves to keep them looking, and the rest continued on their way.

For the next two days, they passed through three towns without encountering any decent resistance, and the leaders there either left the city to surrender or ran away early.

The 10,000 Winged Clan warriors brought by Solomon have not made a move until now, except for the previous time when they were looking for people, and they even feel a little bored.

The only attrition was actually death from illness.
