Throne of Vientiane Civilization

In the side hall next to Qinzheng Hall, Zhou Xu fell into deep thought.

According to Shi Lei's temperament, he must have written down all the information he obtained.

At the same time, a lot of information about the 'green skins' was also added.

The information was limited before, no matter how much Zhou Xu thought about it, he couldn't figure out much. Now that the information has been supplemented, he quickly sorted out more thoughts.

For example, the composition of the 'green-skinned' group is actually somewhat similar to that of the lizard people. Although the lizard people are collectively called lizard people, within the group, they are actually divided into blue lizards (Soluk) and green lizards (Baltu). , as well as chameleons and other branches. Even considering the possibility of bloodline evolution, half-dragons must be included.

The same is true for 'greenskin', which is a major category of a group. The huge ogre is greenskin, those silly big guys who are similar in shape to humans but are bigger than humans are also greenskin, and those body shapes are also greenskin. The Goblin Wolf Cavalry, which is short but smarter and more agile and can control its mount, is essentially green-skinned.

In addition, it was mentioned in the report that Nawojin Copperfurnace said that multiple forces on the rock wall formed a coalition to deal with the greenskins together.

From this point, it is not difficult to see that the scale of the Green Skin is definitely not small.

Under this premise, Zhou Xu was naturally grateful for the fact that the dwarves helped them repel the greenskins.

But putting aside that little bit of gratitude, Zhou Xu was generally clear about the other party's thoughts.

To put it simply, as long as the greenskins are still there, there is basically no possibility of them turning against each other, and they will even form a win-win relationship due to the geographical location of their territories.

The dwarves will take the initiative to guard the front area and prevent the enemy from going deep into their rear, which also ensures the peace of their New North District in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

In order to protect the New Taipei District, they, the Great Zhou, will also ensure the stability of the dwarves' rear area.

Zhou Xu clearly sees the stakes here.

How can there be so many good people in this world? Common interests, that is what is real.

Currently, there is still a problem with the rat people in the southern border. Zhou Xu has no plans to allow the New Taipei District to continue to expand for the time being. He can just maintain the status quo. He will wait until next spring to solve the rat people in the southern border.

"Pass my order to have the wood elves withdraw and have Drogo lead the team back to Feiyan City. As for Li Ce, let him continue to sit in Anling City and wait for further orders."

As Zhou Xu spoke, his eyes fell on the map that was drawn some time ago.

This greenskin invasion undoubtedly proves how important it is to have a reliable general.

In the situation at that time, although the dwarf troops helped a lot, it could not change the fact that Shi Lei took control at the critical moment and stabilized the battle situation in the New North District.

And now with the rapid expansion of their territory in the New World, arranging reliable generals to garrison has undoubtedly become a top priority.

In the New Taipei District, because the Dwarven Copperforge is next door, and the external coalition forces, including the dwarves, are still at war with the greenskins, they should not have any expansion plans in the next few years.

Taking this into account, there is no problem with the decision to appoint Shi Lei, who has done things safely, as the commander-in-chief of the New Taipei District. The question now is who should hand over the garrison work of Anling City after Shi Lei leaves?

Although after occupying the New Taipei District, Anling City has been regarded as their internal city in the Great Zhou Dynasty in terms of geographical location, but the location of Anling City is still quite far away from the New Taipei District, and there are many gaps in between. The Shaoshan Forest area has not been explored yet. If you relax too much, there is no guarantee that something unexpected will not happen.

Zhou Xu thought about this, and the most suitable candidate here had to be Li Ce.

After all, compared to Anling City, Green Forest City is obviously safer. The wood elves can no longer do without them, and annexation is only a matter of time.

Further outside the Wood Elf Village is a large lake. The large lake is connected to Black Moon City and the factory area of ​​the Lizardmen. It is their territory. The possibility of risks is very low. Just arrange for a young general to go there and take charge.

In a flash of thought, Zhou Xu completed a new round of defense arrangements in three strokes, five divisions, and two divisions.

As for the subsequent development plans of New Taipei District...

He was not familiar with the specific situation there for the time being, and had to take some time to conduct an inspection there before making follow-up arrangements.

Just as Zhou Xu was planning this, Shi Lei, who was in Yuancheng, had already arrived in Pingyuan City with his troops who still had fighting capacity.

The city gate has been destroyed, and the city is in a mess. Many buildings have been damaged. At the same time, the streets and surrounding buildings are still stained with large areas of dried blood, but apart from some debris, there is no visible There were so many corpses. This situation actually made Shi Lei's and the others' faces look even more ugly.

At that moment, a strong sense of discomfort that they had never experienced before surrounded their hearts. This was more of a psychological feeling.

Some recruits couldn't bear it and even vomited on the spot.

"Confirm whether there are any survivors in the city. Notify the engineering team to repair the city gate first. The rest will clean up the military camp in the city and station it."

After quickly giving instructions on what needed to be done, Shi Lei pulled the reins in his hand and rode towards the city gate at the other end of Pingyuan City.

After a round, it can be basically confirmed that this plain city is already an empty city.

After briefly completing the stationing work, Shi Lei sat in his tent and was silent for a while, then spread out a piece of animal skin paper and quickly wrote a report.

During this process, time quietly entered autumn. Under Shi Lei's arrangement, the first batch of people who moved towards Anling City had now successfully arrived in Anling City.

Although New Taipei District has been safe since then, Zhou Xu is not ready to let this group of people go back.

On the one hand, considering that going back and forth can easily cause some unnecessary trouble.

On the other hand, considering that in the New World, compared to the New Taipei District, the New South District is the key area for development. This group of people has been transferred here anyway, so we might as well arrange to work in the New South District as a labor force. That's it.

If the New Taipei District is short of labor for subsequent development, then he can just transfer labor from the New South District. This can be regarded as a disguised population transfer to facilitate his assimilation of the new population.

"Your Majesty, there is a report from Colonel Shi Lei from New Taipei District."

After successfully resisting the green-skin invasion, as a reward, in addition to some material rewards, Zhou Xu took advantage of the situation and raised Shi Lei's military rank by another level.

From the current point of view, Shi Lei is the general with the highest military rank in the Great Zhou Dynasty and the largest area of ​​responsibility.
