Chapter 716: Sweep and Plan
Golden terraces, mountain villages.
The purgatory horses trampled on the muddy land. Under the horrified gaze of a group of goblins who had given up resistance, the blood seemed to gather as if it had life. When the bright red blood thorns drilled out from the pools of blood, the screams of the goblins resounded through the village.
A secluded goblin village?
This is the area occupied by the Goblin King, but even in the area occupied by the Goblin rebels, those neat fields were planned and organized by humans, and then they were planted by themselves.
Reclamation, farming, although goblins can also farm and raise livestock, but judging from the neat terraces on the ridge, this place should not be reclaimed by them. Generally, the cultivation of goblins is more messy and disorderly.
If it is not a relic before the destruction of the world, there should have been humans stationed here, or goblins captured and enslaved humans to help them work. In short, this seemingly peaceful goblin village is very likely to have a more cruel past than the goblin parade.
Blood and corpses, those residues that have not turned into dust indicate that this is a gathering place for monsters with a large proportion of real goblins.
And these non-projected goblins have stronger physiological desires. Eating and reproducing will make them have evil thoughts about all creatures.
Rushing around goblin cities, Mu Hua accidentally discovered a goblin village with a pastoral style here. Blood snakes condensed by blood control search and kill goblins who are hiding or fleeing.
And Mu Hua did not explore the situation here too much. There is no need to delve into it. If human remains or human women pregnant with monsters are found, it will only affect the mood.
Mu Hua originally wanted to develop goblin laborers on the Abyss Island, but after raising them, no matter how they are trained and abused, procrastination and amnesia seem to be deeply engraved in their genes.
Let them engage in any long-term labor, they will be clever and develop some "convenient and labor-saving" ways to complete it by themselves, and no matter how they are beaten, killed or intimidated, it is useless.
In addition to the goblin's adrenaline soaring all the time, the goblin's body will spray strange liquids everywhere, and the goblins on the Abyss Island are completely defined as "feed" in Mu Hua's mind.
Even the original plan to train the goblin army was thrown into the courtyard. In essence, the goblin rebels are the product of that plan without careful consideration.
Physiology and psychology are closely related, and they deeply affect thinking patterns and behavior patterns. Some things are really not so taken for granted.
Goblins can become an important part of the food chain in nature and can also enrich the vitality of wild monsters, but these things are still unable to build a decent productivity. Fighting is probably the only behavior pattern with high obedience.
"My lord, Black Crow sent a message that they met some adventurer teams that died in the goblin's sneak attack on the way. Should the Adventurer's Guild issue a notice prohibiting them from following?" Tina, who was collecting corpses and searching for drops, asked Mu Hua.
The area occupied by the Goblin King is about 800,000 square kilometers from a bird's eye view. In simple terms, it is roughly equivalent to four or five Henan provinces.
Mu Hua has been sweeping here for two months. It can be called sweeping, but in this vast land, it is more appropriate to describe it as wandering.
With its tyrannical strength, the Purgatory Warhorse and the Black Crow Armor have caused panic among the goblins, but the goblins are not beasts. Faced with irresistible attacks, many goblins will hide in hidden caves and wait for an opportunity.
It is easy to find goblin gathering places such as cities and strongholds in the Goblin Kingdom, but it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to search the world for those deliberately hidden cave entrances, which is basically not something that can be achieved in a short time.
This is also the fundamental reason why Mu Hua did not think about quickly occupying the Goblin Kingdom.
But Mu Hua and Black Crow swept through the goblin gathering place. They didn't think of occupying it, but some adventurers could not help but have a desire to possess those fortifications and city buildings that could be renovated and reused after the war.
They defended the city, and the monsters hid in the wilderness. The Goblin Kingdom was indeed more chaotic and dangerous, but adventurers were originally a profession that grew and profited in chaos and danger.
Some adventurers followed Mu Hua and his group to pick up leaks, and even the brigade was eager to expand its own sphere of influence.
And the crypts were not caves that hid a dozen or twenty monsters. Some crypts even had underground cities where goblins could reproduce and live.
The war between humans and monsters in the courtyard could not be safely demarcated by a nuclear bomb. It must go through repeated cleaning and searching of monsters.
Mu Hua and his group swept everywhere, and the monsters led by the Goblin King had already reported the invasion of a strong enemy.
The goblins can hide and avoid the enemy's attack, and there are some adventurers who want to take advantage of the situation.
As a result, the goblins, who are never lacking in hunting wisdom, will inevitably launch surprise attacks on adventurers who have invaded their territory but have not yet established a foothold.
Adventurers and goblins are always calculating each other and trying to kill each other.
Mu Hua and Black Crow are a group of disorderly thugs, but the raid has not only caused the death and injury of goblins.
"Don't worry, we don't have the ability to support them now, and there are probably several brigades fueling the flames."
"We don't care if there are still people spreading rumors that we are disrupting stability. If we impose some restrictions on them, we will probably be able to lead the expedition." Looking at a group of skeletons approaching this side in the distance, Mu Hua frowned and said.
For the people with normal cognition, governance cannot be achieved by posing and cheering, not to mention the adventurers who are on the edge of a knife.
At this stage, the adventurers in the Kanins Courtyard are generally unruly. Driven by certain interests, they will indeed rely on some stronger forces.
But for the time being, this kind of dependence is basically not much different from being employed. If there is benefit, they will obey, and if there is no benefit, they will break up. There is no stability and belonging. Don't expect to use the trick of pretending to be a big wolf.
It's called picking up leaks, but those adventurers who invaded the Goblin King's occupied area know the risks involved, so they will go to the fire and disaster to annihilate, and even the Jade Cang Court will use the greed aroused by Mu Hua to recruit and integrate those adventurers who are ready to move.
It is no exaggeration to say that if Mu Hua raised his arm and called, there would be many adventurers who would join him and be willing to cooperate with him in the battle against the Goblin Kingdom.
But the premise of all this is that Mu Hua must ensure their profits, allocate territories and strongholds to them, and even guarantee their logistics to a certain extent, and provide them with assistance when the strongholds where they are stationed are counterattacked by monsters.
Invasion is not "raising the banner", invasion requires capital, and for the time being Mu Hua has no time to pull a group of subordinates who are not loyal to attack the city.
At this stage, he can't digest those adventurers, let them integrate themselves, or be recruited and dispatched by major brigades.
What he has to do now is to continuously and steadily strengthen his original strength, and when he is ready to formally launch an invasion and expel the monster forces, he will suppress and dispatch the major adventure forces.
By then, I think those adventurer forces have invested more in this courtyard, and have more concerns, so it doesn't matter if they turn the table and leave at every turn.
Teams of undead war groups gathered towards where Mu Hua and Tina were. These were the undead war groups that had completed the clearing mission in the human-occupied area.
After several months of looting, Mu Hua had almost collected the suspended stones he needed. He gathered the army and prepared to attack the Goblin King City.
When the Sky City was launched, the war plan to concentrate forces to block the Bloody Hills should also be launched.
Clean up the front half of the courtyard, let the various forces fight for power in the first half, try to infiltrate the Bloody Hills, and train the human forces in the courtyard. This is the strategy that Mu Hua is going to launch against the Kanins Courtyard in the next stage.
Looking at the reorganized undead war groups of various levels, Mu Hua frowned and sighed: I hope the monsters on the Bloody Hills will not be too difficult, and at the same time, I hope that the human forces will not let him take out a big killing consciousness.
Although his development seems messy in recent years, he has also tried his best to improve all aspects of the position, including military strength, combat power, support, connections, public opinion, retreat, etc.
There is nothing much to say about the monsters, just fight to the death.
In the Caines Courtyard, he allowed some people to pretend to obey him, but he absolutely did not allow anyone to stand against him here. Even if the royal power entered the scene, he would fight with the other party.
Here, he also invested a lot. (End of this chapter)
