Officials have two tasks, one is to transport people and resources, and the other is to transport people and resources.
It’s just that the former is sent to the rear, while the latter is transported to Qingfeng City.
Those who had no construction skills, had never served as militiamen, the elderly and infirm, as well as women and children, were all transported to the rear for resettlement.
Those who are strong, or have received militia training, and have a certain level of riding and archery skills, will be transferred to Stone Castle for further training.
In terms of resources, the construction resources obtained by demolishing towns and villages, such as wood, ore, etc., are transported to the frontline Stone Castle.
However, soldiers recruited from towns, fortresses and villages were sent to Kaunaston Castle and Qingfeng City.
The officials sent by Xu Lai are all former allies persuaded by Jimmy, and they all have noble status, so there is no problem in recruiting soldiers in the city.
As for the nobles who have surrendered one after another recently, Xu Lai could not completely trust them for a while, but he would still give them these two orders.
Looking at their implementation in the follow-up, it was found that the implementation was good, and they officially entered Xu Lai's bureaucracy and government affairs system.
If the execution was not good, Xu Lai would not mind killing him again and leaving his head rolling.
It has reached this level, and he doesn't care about his reputation among the nobles.
Xu Lai doesn’t have to take action himself anyway. Jimmy has helped him get countless infamy these days.
But anyway, there is no other punishment for the aborigines. As Jimmy's loyalist, Xu Lai also lost his reputation.
This little reputation is completely incomparable to what Xu Lai gained.
Xu Lai is currently the actual controller of the grassland, but he does not have a name yet, so he cannot issue a war mobilization order.
Even if it could be done, people would not listen to Xu Lai at all in some remote villages that Xu Lai failed to capture, and other villages and towns built by the advent heroes themselves.
It is relatively easy to just relocate one's own people. After Xu Lai brutally killed these nobles and disobedient people, at least no one dared to be disobedient in a short period of time.
The more difficult ones are still the people above.
Either it was because of the remote location and lack of information, so Xu Lai's act of killing chickens to scare monkeys was not seen by them.
Either I don’t care who you are, why do you care about my advent of heroes?
The former is a bit better. As long as you send some people over, say something nice or bad, or chop off a few heads if it doesn't work, you will still be obedient after all.
The purpose of strengthening the wall and clearing the wilderness is to eliminate the opportunity for the orcs to obtain supplies.
The villages and towns before Stone Castle, as long as a village is left behind, it is possible for the orc army to persist for a while.
Therefore, no matter what reason these people have, as long as they stay, they are helping the enemy, unless they have the ability to destroy the orcs.
Even those who are old and unwilling to leave their hometown must be forced to leave.
Even if they are willing to stay and die, it won't work, because they themselves are on the orcs' diet. They are willing to die, but Xu Lai is not willing to join the enemy.
Besides, although Xu Lai forced them to relocate, he didn't care about their life or death at all like Aini.
Along the way, Xu Lai set up many supply stations. Each supply station was guarded by troops, and patrols were required along the front and rear supply stations.
It can be said that as long as you follow the prescribed route, there is basically no danger.
Moreover, when they get to the rear, Xu Lai will try his best to solve the problem of food and housing for them, and will also distribute grain, cattle and sheep to them.
Maybe some people's assets will shrink a little, but they have also changed to a safer living environment, and overall they will not lose money.
In order to make these preparations, Qingfeng City, which had started hoarding food early, had to use food reserves for resettlement.
Jimmy and his Chivalry Legion were also split into small parts. They had to protect those officials and guard the supply depot, which was equivalent to breaking up Xu Lai's entire legion.
But no matter what, these people are easy to deal with after all, while the latter is more difficult.
Xu Lai knew very well how difficult the so-called heroes from heaven were.
You tell them that the orcs will come soon, but they think you lied to them. The orcs have been repelled once and suffered heavy losses, and it is impossible to invade again in a short time.
Even if the fact of the Great Migration of the Grasslands is before our eyes and most of the heroes from the sky have no choice but to believe it, they still have to reach out and ask for your favors.
No matter you say it is for their own good, or you tell them that if they stay here, they will be eaten by the orcs, most of the people here still don't listen.
Anyway, as long as you ask them to do it, no matter what the reason, you must pay for it.
The key is that you haven't been able to send troops to drive them away.
Because although Xu Lai sent more soldiers to those officials, it was a bit difficult for them to attack these heavenly heroes.
On the entire grassland, there are only two nobles with specialized abilities.
Of these two nobles, one had his head chopped off by Xu Lai, and the other is still imprisoned by Xu Lai.
The role of heroes is really too great. Even the nobles who took refuge in Xu Lai all have at least general-level boards, and their levels are higher than ordinary heroes. They may not be able to win in a real fight.
The only shortcoming of the heroes is probably that they do not have good equipment, most of them have never fought in battle personally, and have very little combat experience.
If you capture the thief first and capture the king first, it should be difficult for most heroes to stop him.
Even Xu Lai, who has been fighting almost non-stop for a year, can only be regarded as rich in combat experience and cannot be called a master.
It’s just that his attributes are really good, and he can rely on his attribute advantages to crush others almost every time.
He is not as fast as others in drawing the sword, but because of his high agility, his dynamic vision is better. Others slow down their perspective in his eyes, so he can naturally block easily.
And his high strength allows him to still crush his opponents at any angle that is not convenient for him to exert force.
His physique allows him to have more opportunities for trial and error. He can be defeated many times, but his enemy cannot withstand one of his attacks.
Fortunately in this world, people like Xu Lai seem to have not been able to discover the second one.
Even if other heroes are not as good as Xu Lai, Xu Lai is not willing to risk his own soldiers to die.
Furthermore, he had a hunch that these heroes descended from the sky would become a bigger trouble sooner or later.
In short, it is impossible for Xu Lai to give them benefits to move.
Anyway, he has done his best to be kind and righteous. Whether they want to leave or not, it is best not to leave at all, and all of them go to serve as military rations for the orcs.
Xu Lai was furious. He originally planned to use the teleportation array to visit all the unvisited wild buildings with increased attributes.
But now he is so busy that his feet never touch the ground. He is on horseback almost every day. He runs all over the grassland and vomits two or three times.
But even so, he is still actively integrating the vital forces on the grassland.
As Xu Lai kept running around, he gradually achieved some results.
February is a rare month of peace. Any battle that occurs this month will result in a 10-point morale penalty for both sides.
Unfortunately, even this month of peace did not bring real peace.
On the grassland, the flags of resistance to Xu Lai can no longer be seen, but there are still many battles he needs to face.
In early February, the orc scouts began to move to the grassland on a large scale. Xu Lai had suffered a loss once when someone touched the New Stone Fort. Of course, he could no longer let these scouts roam the grassland unscrupulously.
Taking advantage of the fact that the large-scale orc army was unable to cross the Pingfeng Mountains, and these scouts had almost no chance of backup, he and Elvy led separate teams to hunt down these orc scouts.
Xu Lai relied on the reconnaissance guards posted at various intersections in the Pingfeng Mountains to continuously hunt and kill the reconnaissance wolf cavalry.
Xu Lai, who only leads the Paladins, is extremely fast. With the blessing of divine speed, there is no way for the Wolf Cavalry to escape as long as Xu Lai discovers it.
Alvy, on the other hand, borrowed the True Sight Gem from Giselle and flew by at low altitude, specifically hunting those invisible units.
The Wolf Cavalry is very resistant to flying units, even though they definitely cannot defeat Seraphs and Archangels. However, the Wolf Cavalry with the magic net can completely control the flying units with the net.
Although Elvi and the others were able to catch up quickly with the terrifying speed of their top units after they escaped control, it would still waste a lot of time.
And the wolf cavalry are also extremely cunning creatures. Once caught in their net, they will immediately flee.
Elvie leads the angels, and her combat effectiveness is very strong. The disadvantage is that she is incapable of dividing the angels into small teams.
Therefore, the effect of using Elvi to snipe the Wolf Cavalry is not ideal.
Looking at Xu Lai's side, he brought his holy dragon, which had grown into a young form. As long as he saw the wolf cavalry, he could almost destroy them all with one charge.
Throwing a net is very effective against air units, but it is much less effective against ground units, especially units that are charging.
What's more, the Paladin is invincible. If you really can't avoid it, you can open the Holy Shield.
The Holy Light Knight has no chance of promotion. Roland usually chooses to take the Holy Light Knight aside to watch the show, while Xu Lai leads the Paladin to rush forward.
The paladins took turns opening the holy shield to cover the net. Hundreds of paladins could kill at least ten teams of wolf riders in a day.
The young holy dragon flying in the sky can enjoy high-level giant wolves every day and save a lot of food for Xu Lai. At the same time, he can also fly in the sky and point out the location of enemies for Xu Lai.
As the cooperation between the two parties gradually became tacit, no more wolf riders dared to wreak havoc on the grassland, buying a lot of time for the herdsmen in the rear to retreat calmly.
Elvie’s results are also very good.
Angels are extremely fast. Once the enemy is discovered by the reconnaissance guard, she will immediately fly at low altitude.
With the help of the True Sight Gem, no matter whether it is the invisible orc assassin or the orc swordmaster in the wind step, there is no way to escape her discernment.
The orc sword master is one level higher than the human sword master.
Although both sides possess ultimate swordsmanship, the physical attributes of orcs are obviously more advantageous than humans.
It’s just this advantage that becomes completely vulnerable in front of angels.
Sword Masters and Sword Dancers basically operate on a small scale and rarely act together.
Extreme swordsmanship requires space to perform.
If they were to fight on the battlefield and lose the space to move around, they would not even be as good as the Crusaders with heavy armor and double swords.
The crusaders, who were in a tight formation, only needed to keep their bodies side by side and let the sword master slash their bodies, and they mechanically responded with the sword master's sword.
But if they act alone or in small numbers, the vast grassland is a space for them to mobilize their enemies.
Unfortunately, what they encountered this time was the empire's top military unit, the second-fastest Archangel among the nine ultimate units of the camp.
Like Xu Lai, in order to increase their combat effectiveness, Elvi and her more than one hundred Seraphim almost did not take action at all.
But even so, dozens of archangels can completely surround a small group of sword dancers and sword masters.
With the blessing of the Wind Step, the Sword Dancers may be able to maintain their speed advantage for a short time, but unfortunately the Wind Step has a duration.
Xu Lai was on this side of the Pingfeng Mountains and was on guard.
As for the scouts sent out by the orcs, not one out of ten may come back. The one who comes back also escapes for his life and cannot run very far at all.
Not to mention drawing maps, except for the valley entrance of Pingfeng Mountains, we couldn’t even collect a map of the surrounding thirty kilometers.
Of course, the map drawn during the last invasion can still be used.
At the very least, the location of the water source is unlikely to change.
As long as the location of the water source remains unchanged, the location of the wild animals will basically not change. After all, all living things are inseparable from water.
Most of the human villages and towns on the grassland have changed and need to be re-investigated.
This kind of thing is not difficult. As long as you climb over the Pingfeng Mountains and fly around with the pilots, you can roughly understand it.
The most important thing is that the orcs need to find the exact location of the enemy.
The terrifying logistical pressure made it impossible for them to fight a protracted war, and they had to fight quickly.
Then, it is undoubtedly the fastest to find the enemy's main force and annihilate it in one fell swoop.
But our scouts can't even escape from the Pingfeng Mountains, so where can they find the enemy's main force.
They haven't even received the news that Stone Castle has changed drastically.
The bold sword master from before had already died under Giselle’s arrow before he could bring the news back.
The orcs had no choice but to rely on their only ally on the grassland.
Fortunately, this ally brought them good news.
According to Xu Lai's wishes, Aini told the orcs that he had prepared groups of cattle and sheep for them, and would be able to deliver them to them as soon as they entered the grassland.
When the orcs asked about Xu Lai's news, Aini frowned and told the orcs that he didn't know.
Aini told the orcs that if Xu Lai hadn't been chasing wolf cavalry and sword dancers on the front lines recently, he might not have been able to keep his last bit of power on the grassland.
In this case, Aini said that it was a problem for him to protect himself, and how to find information for the orcs.
At the same time, Aini also told the orcs, asking them to contain Xu Lai.
Otherwise, if Xu Lai frees up his hands to take care of him, all the cattle and sheep he prepared for the orcs will become Xu Lai's military rations.
Aini's statement was reasonable and did not arouse the suspicion of the orcs.
On the contrary, because of these rations, the orcs still maintained small-scale activities every day in order to contain Xu Lai.
This small group of troops is basically facing death.
Moreover, in order to attract Xu Lai, they were all high-speed troops, either wolf cavalry, sword dancers, or small groups of flying soldiers.
Throughout February, in order to achieve the goal of containing Xu Lai, the orcs sent orcs to die almost every day.
In one month, Xu Lai and the others killed at least more than 3,000 wolf cavalry, more than 1,000 sword dancers and sword masters, more than 1,000 self-destructing bats, and more than 300 golden eagles. .
There are nearly a thousand orc assassins and several other unknown orcs. There should be more than tens of thousands of battle results in total, and there are very few recruiting units. (End of chapter)
