Develop the world from one person

At night, inside Gushan Castle.

Dozens of bonfires several meters high were burning throughout the Gushan Hall.

Countless dwarves and Guo Yi's people chatted with each other in the mountains.

The entire hall was filled with the rich aroma of meat and the sound of noisy chatter.

"Thank you Guo Yi."

At a campfire, Dain held a bucket of beer and smiled with Guo Yi: "Thank you for coming to my place!

As long as you are here, we don’t have to worry about Sauron’s army!”

"As agreed, the Ring must be guarded by my people, and no one else is allowed to enter the secret room where the Ring is kept."

Guo Yi held up the bucket and clinked it with Dyne, and said quietly: "Also, since my people have taken over the defense of Gushan, it will be under our control. Your people should not conflict with us."

After a pause, Guo Yi added: "Our control is much stricter than yours."

"Don't worry."

Dain took a sip of beer and waved his hand nonchalantly: "As long as you can block Sauron's army, these things are easy to talk about."

"Um."

Guo Yi nodded and looked at Brand, who was silent at the side: "King Brand, what do you think?

Do you want to hire my people to help you defend Changhu Town?"

After Brand saw the army and large transport planes led by Guo Yi, he thought of hiring Guo Yi to help defend Changhu Town.

However, after Brand and Guo Yi learned about the employment price, they instantly shut themselves up and became silent.

River Valley State sounds nice, but in fact it only has two cities.

River Valley City is located in a sheltered valley between two ridges on the south side of Lone Mountain.

Changhu Town is located in a calm bay on the west side of Changhu Lake near the mouth of Milin River, protected by stone capes.

The total population is estimated to be tens of thousands...

At the same time, the River Valley State could prosper and become the largest human nation in northeastern Middle-earth, all relying on the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain.

Therefore, even if Brand asked the entire River Valley state to collectively sell their kidneys, he still couldn't afford Guo Yi's commission. How could he not be autistic?

Once he became autistic, he remained autistic until now.

In the afternoon, Guo Yi needed to discuss the defensive details with Dein, so he ignored Brand's autism.

At the same time, it also gives Brand enough time to think clearly.

Therefore, Guo Yi has not responded to Brand until now.

"Can I owe it?"

Brand sighed secretly and said a little pitifully: "The money in the River Valley State is not enough to hire you.

It’s useless if you only hire more than a hundred people..."

Speaking of this, Brand looked around at the people around him, gritted his teeth and said: "I found that Sauron's army has gathered by the Carnen River!

If you have too few people, you will only be making unnecessary sacrifices."

"Dongyi people!?"

After Brand finished speaking, Daine was stunned for a moment and growled: "They are here too?"

The Dongyi, Balkos, Harad, Variag and the pirates of Umbar, these five human forces are all Sauron's lackeys.

Therefore, they can only be called forces and do not belong to states or kingdoms.

Among them, the Dongyi and Balcos are the largest hostile human forces in Gushan and River Valley States.

However, the geographical location of Dongyi people is not very good.

They are in Dyne's hometown, east of Iron Hills, east of Changhe Town, quite far away.

The Balkos people live on the vast plain between the Black Forest and the Running River, that is, south of Changhe Town and east of the Black Forest.

"Yes."

Brand nodded heavily, and then said to everyone: "After I found out, I immediately contacted Thranduil (Legolas' father, the king of the forest elves), and he said there was no way to support us.

"

"..."

"This is the land of forest elves..."

While Brand was talking to Dyne, Guo Yi took out a map and explained to Brother Ye, the commander-in-chief of the Heavenly Army: "If the Dongyi people want to come over, they need to cross this river.

The Balkos people live here. Going northwest, they can directly threaten the deep forest elves in the Black Forest.

Crossing the rushing river can threaten the valley state and the lonely mountain.

The other sides of the Gushan Three Kingdoms are surrounded by mountains, with no way to escape.

Therefore, Gushan, River Valley State and Black Forest Kingdom are blocked here in the north by them."

"..."

After Guo Yi explained the situation, Brother Ye looked at Daiin and Brand with pitiful eyes.

The combined territory of the three Gushan kingdoms is a territory the size of a thumb.

The combined territory of the Dongyi and Balcos people already exceeds the size of a hand.

The gap in population and material resources can be imagined.

To put it bluntly, the three forces of Gushan have not been exterminated until now. It is really because God is taking pity on them.

"Hey, I'll pay the commission."

Dyne and Brand sighed, then looked at Guo Yi: "Changhe Town also needs 3,000 troops to defend.

Their commissions will come from my Gushan."

Lips are dead and teeth are cold.

Without the trading port of Changhe Town, Gushan's supplies would not be able to circulate with the outside world.

Moreover, without the buffer of Changhe Town, Gushan will be isolated and helpless.

Therefore, Daine could not give up Changhe Town.

Not to mention Brand.

Without Changhe Town, more than half of the territory and population will be lost. How can you just give up?

"Brother Ye, how are you?"

After Dai Yin finished speaking, Guo Yi looked at Brother Ye: "Can 3,000 people defend it?"

To the north of Changhu Town is River Valley City, to the west is the Black Forest, and on the other two sides are a river and a highland wasteland.

Except for the terrain of the lake, Changhu Town has no geographical advantage at all in terms of defense.

"no problem."

Brother Ye saw Guo Yi and the others looking at him and smiled: "Changhu Town should be the town on the lake we passed by in the afternoon, right?

As long as you guard the bridge and watch the lake, you should be fine."

After a pause, Brother Ye asked curiously: "Are there any enemies in Chang Lake?

If so, I need you to go back and get a batch of sonar.

If possible, bring a batch of mines."

"..."

"No."

Brand saw everyone looking at him and said quickly: "The lake is full of fish, there is nothing there."

"That's fine."

"..."

The next day, Guo Yi and the others began to take action.

Brother Bo and his mapping team, escorted by two attack aircraft, and the security team took a large transport plane and went out to work early in the morning.

Starting today, they will begin to draw a detailed map of the entire Central Continent, starting from Gushan.

On Guo Yi's side, he, Jin Li, Brand, Ye Ge, etc. took a few kayaks and rode the rapids.

The source of Benliu River is Gushan, so you can take a boat directly from Gushan to Changhu Town.

At the same time, this river is also the trading hub of Gushan and Changhu Town.

As for the soldiers...

Ahem, I have to work hard for them to fly.

"Bang~"

"Boom~"

When Guo Yi and the others were approaching Changhu Town, they vaguely heard the sound of gunshots.

There was even the sound of mortars.

"Gunshot!?"

Guo Yi was stunned and looked at Brother Ye curiously: "Is it a gunshot?"

"..."

Brother Ye listened attentively and his eyes narrowed: "It's gunshots!"

After saying that, Brother Ye jumped directly onto the shore: "I'll go there first!"

"Brand, have you notified the soldiers in Lake Town?"

Guo Yi frowned and looked at Brand, asking, "Is it possible that my people had a conflict with your guards?"

"Won't."

Brand shook his head and said seriously: "I sent a message to the mayor last night. He knew you were coming and would not conflict with you."

"Then let's go there first."

As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Yi and Lao Tianshi ran away without hesitation: "Gandalf, I'll leave these two to you."

"..."

On the kayak, Gandalf, Brand and Jinli watched helplessly as Guo Yi and the others disappeared after taking a few breaths.

And they had no choice but to sit down the river in a kayak.

"Can they?"

Brand looked at Gandalf worriedly and asked, "Do you need help from Gushan?"

"King Brand, please believe them."

Gandalf smiled enigmatically: "Their strength is stronger than what you have seen and imagined!"
