Hearing Tan Fei's report, a look of shock swelled up on Tenglong's face.

He didn't expect that the other party would snatch the smelted ore in such a short period of time.

When he first arrived, he didn't see the enemy, and thought that the fireworks for help were scaring the enemy away under the stubborn resistance of the guards.

"It's too bad, how are we going to explain it to the lord!!?"

Tenglong was a little anxious in his heart.

However, something worse than his side was happening to the large group of men transporting ore who had just left the manor.

Ding Si relied on his connections to contact Ishihara, another lord with a vein, and he exchanged peacock corundum and mixed iron lapis lazuli for thick earth gold to Ishihara.

This is also what Ye Li meant, because after a period of thinking, Ye Li was determined to use his two thousand men to build a powerful shock army.

This shock army is all mounted by demon beasts, wearing heavy armor with strong defense, and using special runes and spirit weapons.

Of course, it is definitely not easy to set up, and the cost will be very huge.

Thick soil and gold are important raw materials, so Ye Li asked Ding Si to find a way to find another lord Ishihara in exchange for some.

The elite corps of 500 people he sent was attacked by a strange legion of 700 people before they could transport materials out of the range of Dongfang County.

This strange army was very well organized and disciplined, and the location of the attack was cleverly chosen, right at the mouth of a valley.

After they did this, the guard army could not rush out at all, but was caught off guard by the condescending blow of the strange legion.

After dropping more than 200 corpses and killing more than 100 people on the other side, the guards knew that they were invincible, so they could only escape with a small amount of valuable peacock corundum, while the mixed iron lapis lazuli could only be thrown in place and was robbed by the other party.

The loss here is greater than the loss of the mine, after all, the mine only has five days' worth of ore in stock, and here it has half a month's stock.

When this group of people returned to the manor under the leadership of Gu Meng, the third leader of the yellow-clothed bandits, they happened to collide with Tenglong's report.

The repeated bad news finally shocked Ye Li.

"How so, do you know who the other party is!?"

Ye Li asked with a frown, his eyes full of anger.

Tenglong glanced at Ye Li and said, "Tan Fei described the appearance of these people, saying that they were strong men wearing heavy armor and wielding giant axes.

Among them, there is also a group of mobile squads that are lightly armed and surrounded by wind and spirit.

But after all, we're all new to the city, and we don't know these guys. ”

Hearing his words, Qian San's expression changed, and he said, "I know who they are, they are the elite legion of the Peacock Clan.

Wearing heavy armor is the Yaojin team, surrounded by wind and aura, it is the wind spirit team, and they also have a blasting flame team, all of which are extremely powerful elites. ”

Hearing Qian San's words, Ye Li's expression was shocked, and he said, "It seems that this person from the Peacock Clan is really here to find trouble."

But didn't you say that they are attacking Gathering Heart City now, how can they take the time to deal with us!?

Could it be that the City of Gathering Heart has already been captured?"

Qian San shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be so fast, but they are basically pressing the Gathering Heart City now, so they can barely send some people out to attack us." ”

Tenglong glanced at Ye Li and said, "My lord, Tan Fei said that these people are completely aware of their defense distribution and know the location where the materials are stored well, which means that they are very aware of the situation on our side.

The materials that have been shipped out have also been hijacked, and it is likely that they were all made by the Peacocks, which means that these guys are fully aware of our movements and have a plan of action against us.

I doubt it...... There must be moles in our mines and within us!"

Hearing Tenglong's words, Ye Li nodded and said, "It must be so, if no one provides information, the other party can't get it so easily." ”

Hearing Ye Li's words, everyone around them began to look at each other, guessing who the traitor was.

Ye Li glanced at them and said, "Don't be suspicious, it is impossible for our people here to have a traitor, after all, none of us have anything to do with the Peacock Clan."

It will not do you any good to assassinate me. ”

When everyone heard this, they let down their vigilance.

Ding Si thought for a while and said, "I guess the traitor should be the miners we recruited before, as well as some Zhuang Ding."

These people are all from villages and towns from all over the country, and there is no guarantee that there will be no three mayors in the ......."

Hearing his words, Tenglong said, "Fourth Brother Ding, do you think those mayors are doing ghosts?"

Ding Si nodded and said, "Eight or nine are not far from ten, the only people who directly contradict us are them, we have destroyed their interests, and they want to take revenge on us, which must be considered a motive."

What's more, the people who can know the distribution of our defense personnel in the mining area must be the people in the mining area.

And the 1,500 people in the mining area are basically the elite who came with you, and they were personally recruited by His Majesty the Emperor, how could they collude with the Peacock Clan.

Moreover, they don't have much chance to pass the news on to the peacocks.

It was only possible that the miners we had recruited informed the three mayors of the town of the situation here under the pretext of going home during the break.

These three mayors, if they want to assassinate us, can pass the news on to the people of the Peacock Clan.

These three have been disappearing lately, and I have instructed some people to secretly check their movements, and they have indeed left Dongfang County en masse once recently, perhaps to the Peacock Clan. ”

"These damn guys, you should have slaughtered them all!!

Qian San hated it so much.

Ye Li's brows tightened for a while, and said: "Now it seems that the Peacock Clan should list us as the next target, the ore here is not small for them, if they solve the Gathering Heart City, they will definitely come to attack us."

We have to prepare in advance, because we are definitely no match for them in a tough battle!"

When Ding Si heard this, he said: "Young Master, should we contact Gathering Heart City, the enemy of the enemy is our friend, now the Peacock Clan is already our biggest enemy, and the attacked Gathering Heart City may be our ally." ”

Ye Li thought for a moment and said, "What is the origin of the people from Gathering Heart City, do you know?"

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Qian San.

Qian San immediately understood and said, "Young Master, the people in Juxin City are relatively mixed, and they are all formed by some small families and clans.

The strength of their single family is relatively weak, and they were gradually annexed in the confrontation with the Peacock Clan, and in order to curb this phenomenon, they formed an alliance and united to form the current Gathering Heart City. ”
