Chapter 354, Unfinished Development
Where can we retreat if we just retreat?
Even though Mountain Dew City is a devastated ruin, the towering city walls are still intact.
Once you give up, the door of the human empire will be opened again.
Three human provinces in the rear.
Let’s not talk about the plateau where there are no people now, which is a step back for the rat war.
A plains province similar to the golden province and the rock-connected province dotted with large and small mountain peaks.
These two places are simply not ready to face war again.
Far away there is the invasion of the Eastern Expeditionary Force, and nearby there is the group of barbarians descending from the mountain to wreak havoc.
The long night has just ended, and a new round of farming is about to begin. At this time, you tell him that the rat people are coming again, and ask them to raise an army to fight against the rat people.
Is this realistic? This is not realistic. There is no need to fight at all.
But what can we do if we don’t have to fight? The rat people are indeed coming again.
It can only be said that for the residents of these two provinces, suffering always comes one after another.
The three rat warlords marked out their respective goals.
Well, it was actually said that three rat warlords were discussing it, but Qi had no right to intervene in this matter. It was just a quarrel between the two guys.
The flat plain province was assigned to the private soldier leader.
The province of Lianyan was returned to the war priests.
The agents launched by the rat lords have changed twice. Since the death of the burned black guy, another unlucky guy died in the chaotic attack on the fortress, and there were also He wasn't killed by the human warriors in the fortress.
But it was smashed into a puddle of rat cake on the city wall by the terrifying trebuchet from the rear.
This incident is basically not premeditated, but a coincidence and a mistake. As for why it is so certain..., I can only say that even if those war priests want to do evil, those big claw priests Nor did he have the ability to accurately hit the Nidaime private army leader standing on the city wall with a trebuchet in a chaotic battle.
That's for sure.
No doubt a coincidence.
After this incident happened, whether it was a coincidence or not, the unlucky guy who was beaten into a rat cake was undoubtedly written up by the rat lords.
So there was such a concession, and the plain province was given to the rat lord.
The temple guards did not hesitate much on this point.
To be precise, what they value more is not the same as that of the rat lords. They value the land plundered in the war more than the trophies that can be exchanged for a lot of blood mushrooms.
Even though the two sides are now competing against each other, they are more of just fighting for the right to speak.
As long as the rat lords do not compete with the temple guards for land distribution rights, they do not mind making concessions on such matters.
The two flags led their respective armies in two directions with huge deviations.
Qi stopped and did not follow either of these two guys. In principle, he should follow the war priests and continue running wildly in the mountains.
In fact, Qi is quite familiar with Lianyan Province.
But he didn't do it.
Compared with the option of becoming cannon fodder, he decided to pause temporarily.
The weakening support of the temple guards for him has made the relationship between the two parties no longer so stable. It is a pity that the rat lords did not extend an olive branch to him. No one paid attention to his small role for the time being, so he decided to do something that a small role would do.
This place not only has formal meals like those two provinces, but also some not-so-delicious desserts in the more remote places.
Qi decided to start his own business, to catch slaves, and to go over the mountains and ridges to find trouble for those failed races.
They have also gone through a period of recuperation.
Perhaps the quantity is not that sufficient.
But Sheng Qi doesn’t mind doing something more outrageous.
Clean up the edge areas that those two guys missed, or pick up some of the property left behind by the Skaven caravan.
It is normal for the rat caravan to suffer losses.
Whether you are attacked by enemies on the trade road, or you lose your trace after getting lost, this is a normal thing.
Of course, there are even cases where the entire army is annihilated due to an attack by rat mercenaries invited by the enemy.
These are all situations that may happen, so naturally, when this situation occurs, as a rat warlord passing by by chance, he naturally picks up some things. This is normal.
Qi made a decision in his thinking.
In fact, attacking the rat caravan is a very risky thing, because if you offend the rat lords, you may be beaten by their troops.
And it doesn’t stop there.
If you offend many rat warlords and are united to resist, then even if you get a lot through robbery for a while, subsequent replenishment will be a problem.
At this time, you need to weigh and make your own judgment.
If it weren't for the fact that there was nothing we could do, the flag would not have been raised.
He can't always be there, scraping the land in those remote places and picking up trash on the edges that the other two guys missed.
If he wants to have a really good harvest, then he must have enough siege equipment. These heretics like to hide in the city, and only by conquering the city can they really gain considerable gains.
Of course, having siege equipment is not enough, mobility is also indispensable. In order to give the rat army in your hands better mobility, even if it is to clear the battlefield faster , giant rats are also essential.
These are the minimum, not to mention the full body armor, rat trolls, Great Claw Priest engineering team, lightning cannons, and the mobile fortress that recently appeared on the battlefield.
These are all he needs now.
Those rat caravans have these things in their hands, and they have these things that he urgently needs.
But it's a pity that he can't give so many blood mushrooms.
Then you have to think about it.
But don’t be so anxious. It is not a wise choice to rashly touch these rat caravans. It will bring you big trouble.
Now, let's go find some trouble with those old friends.
After the other two teams had gone far, Qi finally waved the flag. He took his slightly shabby army and chose a team that had nothing to do with the two rat warlords. Marched in the direction.
After the three rat warlords left, the city with only its majestic city walls fell silent.
Of course, it will not be abandoned. Soon, the Temple Knights will take over the city, and then a steady stream of ratmen will arrive in the city to continue the unsuccessful development.
