378 Snake Swallowing Elephant

I have opened a new book, and I am playing a live broadcast in the fairy world. Please help me collect it and give some recommendations! Thank you, all book friends!

*********************

After capturing the Greenstone Castle, Xiao Feng led the Riverrun army and swept across the basin, opening and closing across the basin, conquering more than a dozen castles in just a few days.

In the eyes of people in this world, those stone castles are extremely solid, but in Xiao Feng's eyes, there is no difficulty at all.

The wooden door of the castle was like paper when it came into contact with the B10 recoilless gun and RPG rockets in his hands, and there was no enemy at all.

And these orcs are indeed not good at defending cities. Maybe it was because they attacked other people's cities in the past. It is really difficult for them to let them defend the city.

Whenever the cost is destroyed by him, the morale of these defenders will be greatly reduced immediately, and their thoughts are extremely inconsistent. Some people often want to rush over and fight them to the death, and some people will choose to rub oil on the soles of their feet.

Encountering such an opponent, in front of them, it is not a problem at all. There is no enemy that can last for half an hour, and the battle will basically be resolved in ten or twenty minutes.

More than a dozen castles in the southern section of the canyon fell one after another within a few days, and the owners of these castles also organized a loose alliance. As a result, the alliance was defeated by his troops by the Wuding River.

There is no longer any decent resistance in the southern section of the Calabash Gorge.

This treasure land is like a naked girl, letting them take whatever they want.

On this land, they harvested countless oats, seized countless cattle, sheep, horses and various poultry, and looted countless gold and silver treasures.

They captured more than 10,000 orcs from various tribes and liberated more than 100,000 humans. Up to this point, this operation can be considered a great success.

And their army has now expanded to 12,000 regular troops. The reason why they have expanded so many people is because among the human slaves they liberated, many of them were from the former Toulon Empire and Carter.

Soldiers of the Lun Empire, captured by orcs as slaves.

Xiao Feng asked Kyle to select a group of soldiers with good physical fitness and high willingness to fight among these people, and added them to the army, which resulted in a sudden increase in the number of his troops.

The number of people in the baggage train has also been increased to 10,000. Anyway, there are enough humans rescued. Some of these people he chose to transport back to Riverrun, while the other part he chose to let them stay here.

And right in the center of the basin, near the river, he chose a highland and let these people build the city!

After more than 20 days of expedition in this basin, he discovered that this basin is really a geomantic treasure, even comparable to the Pennivera Peninsula he occupied.

This basin is surrounded by mountains and has abundant water resources. The land in the basin is fertile. Because the mountains on all sides block the strong winds blowing from all directions, the climate here is relatively warm, with little temperature difference throughout the year. It is very suitable for agricultural operations.

Very suitable for human habitation.

After finding some human captives who had lived in the area for a long time, he learned about the climate of this basin, and there had been no geological disasters for many years, so he fell in love with it even more.

The area of ​​this basin is quite large, even much larger than the Xichuan Basin in his hometown of China on Earth. The terrain is also flatter and more fertile than the Xichuan Basin, and the water resources are also very rich. The most important thing is

There are not as many geological disasters as there are in the Xichuan Basin.

In his opinion, such a place is definitely a place of wealth and treasures!

Originally, he only planned to lead the Riverrun army to raid this area, destroy more orc castles and rescue more humans, but now he plans to occupy this place.

With such a treasure land, as long as humans are given a period of time to recuperate, this place will become the source of human counterattacks. The output of this land alone is enough to feed his army.

This is the statistics after searching this basin during this period. Not counting the rough oats that were forcibly harvested, there are millions of cattle, horses and sheep looted from this basin alone. What the hell is this concept?

?

Just these cattle, horses and sheep are enough to feed them for several years!

Thinking of this, Xiao Feng immediately sent people back to Riverrun to transfer Majors and Charisman and asked them to investigate the land as soon as possible and find out the value of the land as soon as possible.

At the same time, he also learned about the situation north of the Calabash Gorge through 'communication' with the captured orcs.

Only after this understanding did they know that not far to the north of the Wuding River where they defeated the Orc Alliance, there was a canyon. That canyon was called the Calabash Yao, and rushing towards the Calabash Yao, further north was a large area.

The basin here is three times larger, the land is even more fertile, the products are more abundant, and the people are even more numerous.

The terrain is almost exactly the same as this basin, but the area is three times larger, the population is several times greater, and there are dozens of large and small cities...

Just hearing such data, Xiao Feng felt like his mouth was watering!

Originally, his purpose for this Northern Expedition was to destroy the production of the orcs, liberate more human slaves, strengthen his own strength, and weaken the war potential of the orcs.

But now, the success of the previous series of wars has made his ambitions continue to expand.

Why should such a good place be left to these orcs? If we don't occupy this place and just retreat, it won't be long before the orcs will come back and occupy this basin again.

At that time, as long as they reuse this land and resume production, it doesn't take long for them to regain their war potential.

Thinking of this, he made up his mind not to leave this time. Not only did he want to occupy the Hulu Basin in the south, but he also didn't plan to let go of the north!

This war fortune is indeed the best to make. After conquering the southern section of the canyon, the strength of Riverrun City has doubled. If the northern basin is also conquered, he estimates that Riverrun City can control

The population will immediately increase to 500,000!

When the time comes to hold Calabash Canyon and Pennivera Peninsula, two fertile lands, he will have the capital to compete with the orcs!

What's more, if you occupy the Calabash Canyon, it will also open up corresponding strategic depth for Riverrun City!

Xiao Feng simply convened a meeting with several important leaders and told everyone his thoughts. Kyle, Bloom and others who had previously opposed his Northern Expedition also gained confidence at this time.

There was no objection to Xiao Feng's proposal, especially Kyle, who felt that he saw the hope of restoring the country.

"I think it's completely feasible. As long as we conquer the Hulu Basin in the north, we can take the entire Hulu Basin into our hands. I don't think it will be a problem to feed millions of people in this treasure land. In addition, once we conquer the

After Qukai City, we walked north through the winding foothills and passed through the Beiyan Mountains. Beyond the mountains was the Kansalos Prairie. To the north of this grassland was the secret forest, the home of the orcs, and to the south

It's the Toulon Empire. If we hold on to the city of Qukai, we can advance and attack, and retreat and defend. Strategically, we have taken the initiative."

This Kyle was originally a soldier. After hanging out with Xiao Feng for a while, his tactical literacy and strategic vision have also improved a lot.

Charlesman, who was called to inspect the land and prepare to build the city, thought for a while and then said: "In this case, we might as well build the new city at the exit of the Calabash Valley, so that we can guard the entire southern boundary of the Calabash Basin. By then,

Even if the basin in the north cannot be defeated and they want to counterattack, we will prevent them from entering."

Xiao Feng thought this proposal was not bad, so he nodded in agreement.

The Northern Expedition, which was originally just a time to consume the war potential of the Orcs, has now turned into a war for the country! Although it is a bit suspected of being a snake swallowing an elephant, the situation at this time is that the arrow has to be fired.

Who made the half-orcs not notice the importance of the Calabash Canyon? And according to the prisoners' accounts, the half-orc alliance had mobilized more than 100,000 elites from the tribes in the Calabash Canyon earlier this year, and was in the south of the Toulon Empire with several

The last remaining human kingdom engages in the final decisive battle.

Obviously, this is the time when the power of the orcs is at its weakest in the Calabash Canyon. As the saying goes, taking advantage of your illness to kill you, how long will it take if you don't do it now?

When those orc soldiers from the southern expedition come back, if they want to capture the Calabash Canyon, it will be even harder than climbing to the sky.

Even if we can win it by then, I'm afraid we'll have to pay a huge price in casualties, so it's better to catch him off guard now.

The plan was finalized, Xiao Feng led the army to the north, and in less than half a day they arrived at the Huluyao Canyon. Now they set up camp here. Charlesman took several apprentices to inspect the terrain near the canyon, and it turned out to be a place.

A place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

The terrain is even more dangerous than their Riverrun city. There are towering cliffs on both sides of the canyon. The widest part of the passage below the canyon can accommodate ten people passing side by side, and the narrowest part can only accommodate two people passing side by side.

And the roadside is a tributary of the running river.

After inspecting the terrain, Charlesman simply proposed to Xiao Feng based on the terrain of an impact lake at the mouth of the canyon to build a water city at the mouth of the canyon and leave it to Ying Ran and the others to guard it, which would not only facilitate city defense but also facilitate transportation.

Xiao Feng agreed to this proposal, and then left some of the liberated human captives and orc slaves with Charles Mann, and began to build a large scale of construction here in preparation for building a city.

Xiao Feng himself led an army of more than 10,000 people and a heavy supply of more than 10,000 troops, swaggering through the canyon and heading towards the great basin to the north to cover up the enemy.
