Chapter 31: The Trend of the South (Part II)

After Xi Yun's explanation, Liao Ji nodded, almost having a rough idea of the situation in the south.

To put it simply, although there are a large number of clans in the tribal forest, it is all a plate of loose sand, and the ancient wolf clan in the orc plain can be a dominant family because it is the "imperial army", and it will rely on harvesting the tribal forest every year to continuously meet the needs of northern humans for subhuman slaves.

It seems that if he wants to dominate the southern realm, this ancient wolf clan should be a hurdle that he can't overcome.

After hearing so much bad news, this may be the good news among the bad news, right?

"However, in the last ten years, the entire southern border has been getting worse and worse, in addition to the human factors in the north, the real root cause is that the expansion rate of the barren swamp has begun to get faster and faster, resulting in our living space is also being continuously compressed."

"Barren swamps. Dilate? ”

This time it was not Xiyun who answered Liao Ji, and Hu Jiu next to him took the initiative to take the words.

Obviously, this tiger sister's personality is much more open than that of the fox girl, and she directly pulled Liao Ji to the edge of the big map of the southern border on the table before.

The map is clearly divided into three distinct sections, with the Orc Plains and the Tribal Forest in the northern part of the South, occupying almost a third of the land.

Underneath them, the southern part of the South, which occupies the remaining two-thirds of the South, is a large area of danger that does not see any clan markings, and is represented in tan on the map.

"The Wasteland Swamp is a product left over from the wasteland era five hundred years ago, it is full of many terrifying monsters from ancient times, also known as evil demons, although many historical records are gone now, but because my "Tiger Claw" clan used to act as a watchman and resisted the invasion of demons from the wilderness, I am very sure that the area of the Wasteland Swamp a few hundred years ago was not so large, and the swamp was still just a simple swamp, but it seems to have been from a certain point in time."

"The swamp there has become a filthy sludge, and it has begun to devour the land of the south, expanding outward, and the evil monsters inside are getting stronger and stronger, and many watcher clans have been destroyed because of this, plus the empress has revised the constitution, the sub-race that has lost the relics has been labeled as slaves, and the largest ancient wolf clan has taken refuge in the northern humans and persecuted the southern border together, all of which add up to the fact that there is no new offspring watchman to stop the demons, and finally evolved into the current virtue, More than half of the southern frontier has fallen. ”

Hu Jiu, who came here, snorted coldly, a little unsure whether to say schadenfreude or what.

"The current ancient wolf clan can be regarded as having finally tasted the consequences, because they are the largest clan and occupy the most fertile land, so they are also suffering from swamp expansion and the most serious demon invasion, judging from the last ten years, they are busy just to deal with the evil demons, and their control over the tribal forest is not as good as before."

"So."

Hu Jiu's eyes lit up, and her fiery gaze looked directly at Liao Ji, she straightened her chest and said eagerly:

"Lord Liao Ji, I think you're right, now is the best time for us to integrate our forces! As long as he can take advantage of the opportunity that the ancient wolf clan can't spare now, he will unite the various clans in the Tribal Forest. Once the strength is really condensed, let alone the ancient wolf clan at that time, even if the Longmen Army of the Northern Empress comes, we are not afraid! ”

Before Hu Jiu's excited words were finished, the last person present, who had not spoken, couldn't help but speak.

"Hu Jiu, you think things too simply, even if the ancient wolf clan is distracted by the invasion of demons, and there is no time to take care of the tribe's forest, I believe that the vast majority of clans will still not accept us, let alone unite."

"The small clan is difficult to protect itself, the big clan only thinks about how to survive and steal it, this is the status quo of the tribal forest, so impulsive to unite, but it will only harm us, I think first make ourselves stronger, and then gradually absorb and annex other clans, is our right way."

"Great mountain, you! If you do this, then we will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey! By then, the daylilies will be cold! Why are you so cowardly! ”

"This is not cowardice, you form a good-looking appearance, but in fact the interior is still a plate of scattered sand, what is the use of an alliance with ghosts, it is just a bluff, when it is really going to fight, I am afraid that it will be broken at the first touch, or even self-defeating."

"You"

Hu Jiu was just about to continue arguing with Dashan, but Xi Yun next to him coughed and pressed the two of them down with a frowning look, telling them to shut up honestly, and don't be so noisy in front of Liao Ji.

The last three all set their eyes on Liao Ji, after all, now that Liao Ji is their leader, what the revolutionary army should do next, or what Liao Ji said.

"Xiyun, you are in the Tribal Forest, there should be a clan that is still in touch and more familiar, right?"

"Well, the nearest one is the "Dire Lizard" clan more than ten kilometers away from us, I have a friendship with the tribal patriarchs there, and they also helped our revolutionary army a lot back then. ”

"Okay, you can mark the location on the map for me later, and I'll go over and negotiate with them in person."

As soon as he heard this, Hu Jiu suddenly showed a smug look at Dashan, as if to say look! The chiefs will certainly still have to go down the path of rapid union.

Soon, though.

"In addition, what Dashan said is also right, the rapid alliance is just a means of trickery and self-deception, not to mention that the major clans have been suppressed by the ancient wolf clan for so many years, just with our mouths, it will definitely not be able to make them overcome their fear of the ancient wolf clan, we have to really come up with something, so, I will be involved in diplomacy, as for you"

Liao Ji pointed his finger at the table, the biggest problem in front of him now is the cohesion, the revolutionary army of a few hundred people is fine now, but what if it becomes thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands?

Since he wants to speed up the unification of the southern border, he has to reduce the dimension of the attack, and at this time he has to mention the gold content of a classic line, orcs will never be slaves....unless they are covered with food and shelter!

Just as he was about to reassign the three high-ranking officials to the training policy within the revolutionary army, suddenly there was a noise from outside the wooden shed.

"Hey! Who are you? How come I haven't seen you! ”

"Stop! This is a place where the chiefs can enter, and you are not allowed to come any closer! ”

"Stop her!"

Listening to the cheers of the guards, Liao Ji hurriedly put down the meeting and walked out, only to see that outside the wooden shed, the three revolutionary army guards surrounded a barefoot, wearing a sackcloth shirt, with sesame paste in the corners of his eyes, and looked like he had just woken up, vigilantly intercepting and preventing this subperson from continuing to advance.

Fortunately, this subhuman looks pitiful and doesn't look threatening, otherwise I'm afraid I would have started directly.

Liao Jiding looked at it, it was not Jiuyou or anyone.

As for Jiuyou, it is also very straightforward.

After seeing the ashes that came out.

"Lord Gray Liaoji."

"I'm hungry."

And at this time, a strong aroma of porridge came from not far away, so that everyone was attracted, and when they turned their heads, it was Ah Xue who had prepared breakfast for everyone.

The current cat lady is walking towards them with a porridge pot, and by the side of the cat lady, there is another one, who is also up now, and is keeping the girl with a halazi.

After taking a sharp sip of the porridge pot in the cat lady's hand, Irene smelled the familiar smell and was suddenly a little surprised.

"Ah Xue, shouldn't your porridge be the old one?"

"Well, everyone in the revolutionary army now should be the same as me at the beginning, so I tried to imitate the nourishing porridge that Mr. Liao Ji made for me, but I don't know how it tastes."

"Don't worry, I know just by smelling it, it's absolutely authentic! Awesome, Ah Xue! ”

Irene gave the cat lady a thumbs up in admiration.
