Chapter 297: Stratagem

Time passed day by day, Ye Fei had been with the black-skinned bitter gourd, and he had accumulated a large number of potions and potions on hand. NPCs can also use this kind of potion and potion when fighting, so in order to avoid too many casualties, the black skin bitter gourd has been working overtime to make potions and potions.

Even before leaving, Ye Fei asked him to make as many potions as possible for himself, and he would give the price according to the market price anyway.

Outside the Chiba Stone Forest, everyone had already arrived, in addition to the expeditionary force, the assassins of the Assassins' Guild, five hundred city guards, and more than three thousand members of the underground race, as well as a large number of mercenaries with uneven equipment rushed here.

There are a total of three mercenary groups that accepted Ye Fei's employment this time, namely Snow Wolf, Red Maple Leaf and Fury, and the number of people who came from each mercenary group exceeded seven hundred, among them, the number of Fury mercenary groups reached nearly a thousand. The three mercenary groups together have a combat power of 2,500 people, and such a huge combat power makes Ye Fei feel very sure. However, with so many mercenaries, the monthly hiring fee and the cost of eating and drinking are around 100,000 gold coins, which makes him feel distressed again.

After returning to the Chiba Stone Forest, Ye Fei did not show up, and after saying hello to Linda, Nemo and others, he mixed in with the assassin group. After all, the Chiba Stone Forest is now a popular place for leveling, and his presence with so many NPCs will attract the attention of other players, so you must be careful if you want to keep the castle's secrets.

The iron-blooded wasteland is in the northwest of Most City, if you want to enter this wasteland, you need to enter a large area that players have not yet passed, these places are entrenched by monsters above level 40, and some even reach about level 60 or 70, fortunately, the scale of the team on this trip is very large, and there are 10,000 people in the Sixth Legion of the Expeditionary Force under Linda alone, plus other armies, there is no danger of mission at all along the way.

On the seventh day, the crowd finally reached the outskirts of the Iron and Blood Wasteland.

In a large-scale war, the Iron Source Fortress was occupied by the underground race, and the secret mages of the human race teamed up to arrange a forbidden spell to destroy the Iron Source Fortress, and the entire landform of the Iron Blood Wasteland has undergone great changes, the fortress was destroyed, and the underground race also died, and it became a desolate plain with blood.

Later, because there were a large number of ore veins in this area, human beings came to dig the ore veins one after another, and as more and more people mined, several small towns developed in the vicinity. Later, the city of Most stepped in to manage the town in the area and incorporated the mining area into the city's assets, but was met with strong resistance from the miners here. After several years of conquest, the city of Most has never been able to subdue the inhabitants of this area, and the townspeople have become 'bandits'! After that, the nobles who came here one after another were also killed by these murderous bandits, or driven out of this land, in the Iron Blood Wasteland, the mayors of the three towns of Tieling Town, Guangjing Town, and Flash Town are the real owners of this land.

When the team stopped in the Iron and Blood Wasteland, Ye Fei and Linda, who had recovered their identities, the leaders of the three mercenary groups, and John gathered in the tent. Linda sat leisurely on the side, she didn't bother to interject, and the others subconsciously kept a little distance when they saw her.

The deputy commander of the expeditionary force, this identity is a lot higher than everyone present, if it weren't for Ye Fei's relationship, how could they see such a big man?

On the table, a magical map of the Iron-Blooded Wasteland was unfolded, indicating the locations of various mines and towns, Ye Fei clicked a place that was similar to the location of the three towns, and said, "Here, I hope to build a castle here." ”

"This place?"

Several people looked at each other, and Linda glanced at the map with a thoughtful expression.

The leader of the Furious Mercenary Regiment, 'Fierce Tiger' Ogmon, said in a deep voice: "This place doesn't seem to be very good, the location of the three towns is relatively close, if the three towns attack us at the same time, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to resist." As he spoke, he glanced at Linda and smiled, "Of course, if Linda is here, there will be no problem." ”

Linda squinted her eyes and said, "Ten days, I will stay here for ten days at most, otherwise I won't be able to explain to the officer!" ”

The leaders of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Group and the Red Maple Leaf Mercenary Group also showed such expressions, and then the two of them said at the same time: "If this is the case, then we must build the castle within ten days, although it is a little difficult, but I believe that with our strength, it should be possible to defend the castle." ”

Diserson of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Regiment smiled coldly: "Of course, there is also that group of underground races, which can make them ......"

"Shut up!" Ye Fei knew what this guy was going to say, and hurriedly shouted coldly, since he had promised the underground race, he would not go back on his word and deliberately let them be used as cannon fodder to send them to death. He said, "The castle, I have ordered the craftsmen to make the drawings, as soon as they get to that place, they can start building the castle as soon as possible." ”

Seeing that Ye Fei had decided, everyone shrugged their shoulders and did not speak, and then everyone discussed the direction of their respective garrisons before the establishment of the castle, the three mercenary groups were stationed in three directions, and the other place was where the underground race led by John was stationed. First, the relationship between the underground race and other mercenary groups is not harmonious, it is best to let them separate from each other, and moreover, although there are more than 3,000 people in the underground race, the real combat strength is only more than 1,000, except for some elites, most of these more than 1,000 people are young children without any actual combat experience, as for the rest, it is simply the old, weak, sick and disabled.

After discussing, Ye Fei found Nemo and handed him a few letters in front of the mercenary captains: "You send these three letters to Tieling Town, Flash Town, and Guangjing Town, and let their mayors receive them, and say that in nine days, I will go to Flash Town and discuss with them how to divide this area of ore veins!" ”

As soon as Ye Fei's words came out, several mercenary group chapters and John exclaimed: "Talk about cooperation with the bandit group? ”

Ogmund and Merry, the leader of the Red Maple Leaf Mercenary Regiment, showed disdainful expressions, as a lord, he was the first person since ancient times.

"Yes, let's talk about cooperation!" Ye Fei smiled inscrutablely, "Everyone knows how powerful the bandit group of the Iron-Blooded Wasteland is, to put it mildly, they are definitely stronger than you." ”

The captains couldn't see any expression on their faces, this sentence is true, the bandit group here is a strong existence that the expeditionary force is unwilling to fight with them, and their mercenary groups are not enough to see, unless the ten A-level mercenary groups in Moster City join forces, and most of the manpower must be mobilized, so that there is hope for a hard-to-head battle with them.

Ye Fei smiled and continued: "Since you can't beat them, why tear your face with them? Let's sit down, talk calmly, and distribute the ownership of the ore vein, after all, I'm a lord, it's not good if I can't get it at all, and I still have a lot of people to feed. So, instead of letting the brothers go to death, it's better to talk about cooperation, hello, hello, hello, everyone! ”

"You're an employer, and I'll do whatever you want!" Several mercenary captains said in unison, although they disdained Ye Fei's timidity, but these mercenaries were not willing to let their subordinates die in vain, they could get the money, and they didn't have to go out to fight, this kind of thing would be a fool who was not satisfied. However, what made several mercenary captains wonder was that Linda didn't blame this idea of showing weakness, and she didn't even show any dissatisfaction.

Several regimental commanders did not object, and they quickly withdrew.

When they had left, John said, "Master, I don't understand what you mean, do you really compromise with the robbers?" ”

Before Ye Fei could answer, Linda suddenly sneered: "You want to break them one by one?" ”

"Hey, hey!" Ye Fei looked at Linda flatteringly, "It's still Sister Linda who understands my intentions, yes, I just want to break them one by one, these three towns - no, these three bandit groups have been entrenched here for so long, it is impossible that there is no contradiction at all, I asked a few of them to meet, first, to observe whether they have any suspicions, and second, I deliberately showed weakness, so that they were defenseless, and when the time came, we sent troops overnight to get rid of one of the bandit groups, and the remaining two will slowly grind with them." ”

Linda snorted and said, "Your idea is good, but do you have so many troops at your disposal?" With those three mercenary groups, as well as the undead clan under your command, it is impossible to defeat any of the bandit groups, even if it is a sneak attack, the result will definitely be a defeat for both sides! ”

Ye Fei smiled: "Isn't there still Sister Linda?" You're not going to sit idly by, are you? ”

Linda shook her head and said solemnly: "Although our expeditionary force is specifically responsible for clearing out the rebels and bandit groups in various places, but the bandit groups here, we must not touch, once our expeditionary force intervenes, these three bandit groups will join forces even if they have big suspicions, and at the moment of life and death, these bandits can do anything." Even, you can't do it while our expeditionary force stays here, you have to wait until we are gone, otherwise, they will definitely suspect that our expeditionary force is deliberately targeting them. And with my Sixth Legion, it is more than enough to sweep through one of the towns, but to deal with three, even two of them, we will surely be defeated! ”

Ye Fei didn't expect Linda to have such considerations, he frowned and said, "Since that's the case, there's no way, only use him!" ”

"With what?" Linda looked at Ye Fei in surprise, I don't know what other secret weapon he has, could it be the Philosopher's Stone? No, isn't that thing sealed?

Ye Fei smiled and made a lip gesture: "Fire Dragon Cannon!" ”

"Shhh Linda sat up suddenly, and said in shock: "Damn, how can you have that thing, the gods are above, this is a military item, even if it is my Sixth Legion, there are only three of those things, and they will not be used unless they have to, where did you get the dragon cannon?" ”

Ye Fei said triumphantly: "I naturally have my means, haha, two fire dragon cannons, enough for them to drink a pot." ”

"Three dragon cannons!" Linda's eyes flickered, and countless thoughts were swirling in her heart, and after a while, she suddenly smiled softly, this smile made Ye Fei smart, and shouted loudly: "Sister Linda, what do you want to do?" ”

"Oh, don't do anything, I suddenly remembered, I am your follower, the master wants to fight, how can I, a follower, not cooperate?"

Ye Fei was pleasantly surprised: "Are you willing to use the expeditionary force to help me?" ”

"How is this possible, the expeditionary force must not be used, following you on such a trip, I have been counted down by several other deputy commanders, but I can help you personally, don't forget, what kind of profession I am."

Ye Fei's eyes lit up, and he laughed loudly, and the link in his heart that he had never had a better countermeasure was solved.
