Chapter 1097 Another Busy Year

After leaving Ysera in Kamikaze City and returning to Mirror City, Luo Ji quickly threw himself into even more busy work.

According to the latest information sent by the four borders, except for the western border, the other three borders are relatively stable.

On the periphery of the eastern border, although some prairie tribes were spotted from time to time, they couldn't pose any threat to them at all. After Luo Ji's order, the collection was easily completed.

On the other side, in the savannah on the western border, the problem of the orcs gave Luo Ji quite a headache.

Those scattered orcs are really annoying.

They live without a fixed place, and they wander aimlessly in the savannah, posing a threat to the pedestrians and merchants in the area.

The Western Frontier Corps stationed in Gaoling City sent troops to encircle and suppress it several times, but with little success.

Pedestrians were injured and merchants were attacked. Over time, the western region was about to become a high-risk area, and many merchants who planned to develop in the western region were persuaded away.

Although there are still many businessmen who are willing to take risks for profit, it is also a fact that this part of the development of the western border trade has lagged behind the other three frontiers.

Thinking of this, Luo Ji pondered for a while, then turned to Lu Yang and asked...

"Lu Yang, have you sent the latest report of the city's armory this quarter?"

Hearing this, Lu Yang hurriedly flipped through the pile of documents on his desk, and then took out one of them.

"Report to Your Majesty, the report of the Ordnance Factory for this quarter is here."

After receiving the report from Lu Yang, Luo Ji opened his mouth again after flipping through it for a while...

"The order goes on. The latest batch of rifles produced by the ordnance factory, a total of 3,000, will be given priority to the Western Frontier Corps."

After speaking, Luo Ji changed his words slightly.

"At the same time, I sent an order to Kalgan, the commander of the Thousand Riders, and ordered him to lead his giant eagle knights to aid the Western Territory and assist the Western Territory Army to clear the orcs in the territory."

There are giant eagle knights to conduct high-altitude reconnaissance, provide vision, and cooperate with the firepower of the rifle troops, it is also easy to clear a few groups of orc rogues.

But this incident gave him a wake-up call.

It's time for him to strengthen his control over the 'wild' areas within his territory.

In order to avoid these beasts, orcs and other chaos.

But now the distance between the cities, according to the normal travel efficiency, at least one month's journey.

It is undoubtedly difficult to supervise and control such a large area.

The best way now is to build a fortress.

Between the two cities, find a suitable location and build a fortress.

In this way, the wild area can be divided into two with the fortress as the center, and the scope is narrowed, which makes it more convenient for the two cities to supervise and control the area outside the city.

In times of war, that fortress can still be used to hoard a large number of troops and resist enemy invasions, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

Moreover, the dwarves also happen to have the special construction project of 'Dwarf Fortress', which can get bonus effects.

Of course, doing this is definitely not as easy as it sounds.

The cost of a fortress is much more expensive than building a post.

Manpower, material resources, and time, these all have to be spent.

If it could be done with just a few words, Luo Ji would have done it long ago.

At present, there are enough major projects under construction in the Myriad Realms Civilization.

At this juncture, if he starts another major project, not only will he not be able to mobilize enough manpower and material resources, but the treasury, which was finally relieved through the proceeds of the World Cup football league some time ago, is estimated to have an economic crisis again.

There is even a risk of fiscal collapse.

In this way, the construction of the fortress can only be put on the agenda at present, and then toss this after which of the several major projects underway is completed.

Now let the time go by.

After the fall harvest, rapidly cooling weather heralds the onset of winter.

This winter, in the depths of the bitter cold land that has been calm for many years, now it is not calm at all.

Amidst the whistling wind and snow, a violent roar was echoing.

Immediately afterwards, only a loud muffled sound like a heavy object hitting the mountain was heard, and countless rubble splashed, and the body of the bear clan patriarch Bane was directly pressed under the pile of stones.

About two seconds later, in the violent roar, Bane used a burst of brute force to directly lift all the stones that were pressing on him.

At this moment, the bear man patriarch covered in blood was frantically roaring at the behemoth not far away, trying to deter the opponent in this way.

But obviously, his approach didn't make any difference.

"Bang! Bang! Bang..."

With every step that the behemoth took, the heavy steps even caused the ground under his feet to vibrate slightly.

He was covered in long hair all over his body, his sturdy elephant trunk hung down between his waist and abdomen, and two fangs that were so huge that they were exaggerated, showed his hideousness in the wind and snow.

The almost trademark racial characteristics told everyone that the orc who mercilessly defeated Baine at this time was an elephant man!

To be more precise, he should be the strongest Great Chief in the depths of this bitter cold land, Luke!

In terms of height and size, Luke even overwhelms an ordinary elephant man, a giant unit in the true sense.

The fundamental purpose of Baine's desire to acquire human weapons and equipment was to kill Luke and enslave the Elephant family in the depths of the bitter cold. In this way, he could become the only ruler in the depths of the bitter cold. .

And now it seems that his plan is obviously not going well.

"Luke, are you trying to decide between life and death with me here?!"

Yu Guang ignored this wave of subordinates who came out with him to find food, which were basically dead and wounded.

At this moment, Baine is undoubtedly forced to a desperate situation.

The only thing that can be expected, I am afraid that only other tribes from the tribe camp can come to support in time.

Probably seeing through Bane's thoughts, Luke's deep voice sounded in the wind and snow...

"Stop dreaming, they won't come."

Hearing this, Bane, who was covered in blood, was stunned for a moment, and at the same time, Luke's fist like a siege hammer hit him directly in the face.

Although the physique of the bear people is extremely strong, how amazing is the power of the elephant people?

The punch fell, and Bane's mind went blank almost on the spot.

It wasn't until he plunged headlong into the icy snowdrift that he woke up.

"Luke, I didn't expect you to play such a trick?"

At the same time as he said this sentence, Bane's mouth and nose kept bleeding out, and his thick arms supported the ground, trying to stand up, but he couldn't stand up.

Looking at Bane, who was basically unable to get up again, Luke frowned slightly.

"You think I'm lying to you? Don't be stupid. The information you are here is what they told me."

After finishing speaking, before Bane could turn around, Luke's huge palm already grabbed Bane's head.

Then a force was exerted, and the whole head was crushed by Luke on the spot!

The update is sent, and I also thank the book friends for the monthly passes of 'There is no me in the world', 'It's always been quiet J', 'suifengshi', 'Yadi Taoren', and 'NFlong'!
