Elf Sandstorm Lord

Chapter 267 Chess Pieces and Insect Plague

Weibin City, Lord's Mansion.

"I just received a letter. Zhenxin Town in the north suddenly gathered many refugees who fled south. They must have been affected by the recent insect plague!" Qin Shanghui reported.

Zhao Ying sighed softly and said: "How pitiful, these people have escaped the beast tide and the rebels, but in the end their homes were destroyed by the insect plague!"

"In addition," Qin Shang continued: "There is also a baron from Longxi County who also lost his territory in this disaster and took more than [-] people to our Zhenxin Town.

According to the count of Zhenxin Guards General Zhang Yuan, among the 700 people brought by the Landless Baron on this trip, there were four "ranked" strong men, and three of them were already equipped with wind speed dog knights!
In addition, he also brought more than 100 elite guards, and among the remaining 600 people, almost all were young and strong!

While that's a good thing, it's something that boggles my mind.This landless baron's territory is between us and the Earl of Longxi County. Why didn't he go to that big noble?

Although he has lost his territory now, with such a strong strength, even if he joins the command of that earl, he will definitely be taken seriously!This is where I worry about fraud!

Hearing this, Su Yan chuckled and said, "Mr. Qin's thinking is right, but I already knew about this matter before.

This landless baron is only responsible for bringing the remaining people over, and he will leave soon.After I dismantle and digest this batch of power, am I still afraid of his deception? "

"Oh? Could it be that the Viscount has already negotiated terms with this landless baron before!"

Su Yan smiled and shook his head, saying: "It is true that someone has reached an agreement with him, but that person is not me!"

After hearing this, everyone in the meeting was confused. Only Qin Shang asked tentatively: "Could it be the Marquis of Guanzhong?"

Su Yan nodded and said: "Yes, I received a secret letter from the Guanzhong Marquis Mansion before!
This landless baron was originally a nail buried in Longxi County by the Marquis!
Even his entire family had been sent to Chang'an City to enjoy their blessings!It's a pity that he was so unsuccessful.

Not only has it never posed any decent threat to the Earl of Longxi County, but now the entire foundation has been destroyed by an insect plague!

Now, he brings the remaining power to me, which is also the order of Guanzhong Hou.When the handover is completed, he will be reunited with his family in Chang'an City. He will be a rich man for the rest of his life! "

"So it turns out that we got this batch of human resources to help us from Guanzhong in Chang'an!"

After listening to Su Yan's words, He Lei, who was recently assigned to the Wind Speed ​​Dog and became a knight, sighed.

Su Yan chuckled lightly, shook his head, and said: "It's not just this time. The reason why we have been able to build the city and collect the refugees so smoothly during this period is all because of the influence of this Marquis!
Otherwise, if there is no Marquis Mansion to check and balance the Earl of Longxi County, we may have been swallowed up by the latter before we have established a foothold on the north bank of the Wei River! "

When Su Yan said this, he was secretly glad that his luck was really good!
If the Donghuang region is like a chessboard, then every power is a chess piece on it.

If you want to make good moves, sometimes you don't have to look at your chess skills or your abilities!

It’s about whether you stand on the right chess board and whether you have the opportunity to become an important chess piece for a higher-level chess player!

If there is, then you don’t even need to deliberately work hard, there will naturally be a force pushing you forward.

Just like the current situation in Longxi County, he and Viscount Chen Qing entered the southern part of Longxi County one after another.

But compared to the rapid doubling of population and strength on his side, Viscount Chen Qing's side was in trouble everywhere.

It turned out that when he was back home in Qinchuan County, the Viscounty of Chen Qing already had more than 5000 residents.As for the number of people stationed in Longxi County, it has only grown to just over 3 people!

The difference is that Viscount Chen Qing is located to the east of Qinchuan County and Longxi County, both directly bordering Xixian County in Guanzhong, which naturally makes the two families lack mutual trust!

As for Su Yan's location, after further expansion, it will border the Earl of Longxi County.

Although the latter is not as strong as Guanzhong Hou, he is one of the few in the northwest province who has the ability to threaten him!
In this way, Su Yan became the force that Guanzhong Hou, the boss of the Northwest Province, spared no effort to cultivate under the current situation!
Thinking of this, Su Yan sighed in his heart and murmured: "Sometimes, to accomplish something, it doesn't just depend on how much energy you have.

What’s more important is how much energy the person who wants you to accomplish this thing has, or how many people want you to accomplish this thing! "

Then, Su Yan solemnly said: "This time I summoned all the gentlemen to discuss matters, so that I can get the intelligence from the front.

At present, the insect infestation in the central area of ​​Longxi County has left no grass behind!

All the humans, animals, and even elves who didn't come and evacuate were all eaten by the group!

Even some of the "ranked" elf overlords in the wild either have to avoid the edge for a while, or they are bitten to death by these bugs and ants! "

"The individual strength of these bugs is not worth mentioning, but I didn't expect that the strength of the group would be so powerful!" Yang Mu exclaimed.

Su Yan nodded and said: "Not long ago, when we first entered Longnan County, we found signs of a large-scale insect plague, and we dealt with it immediately!
But even so, there are still many Doi Ninjas missing!Just these days, I have killed hundreds of ninjas in the iron mask and ninjas in the shell!

Come to think of it, in Longxi County now, apart from the territory of that earl, the only territory that belongs to me and Viscount Chen Qing is pretty good.

The rest of the middle ground is so chaotic that there is no energy left to prevent insect infestations!

And this is also the reason why this insect plague cannot be controlled in the central part of Longxi County!

But now, this disaster is about to spread to our territory.According to reports, those all-devouring bugs are already moving towards Zhenxin Town!

Now, Zhang Yuan has led a team of troops to the border of our territory to deal with it! "

Hearing this, the atmosphere at the conference suddenly became solemn, and many participants expressed their willingness to go to get rid of pests!

"Okay, don't argue anymore! This matter is serious and I will personally go to Zhenxin Town to take charge."

"Lord Viscount, there is still a threat from the Viscount Chen Qing to the east of our territory. Now that Weibin City is newly built, if there is no lord in charge, will it happen..."

“Don’t worry, this insect plague has also affected Viscount Chen Qing’s territory.

Except for him personally, no one in his entire viscounty would dare to say that he can handle it!

Besides, Zhenxin Town’s defense strength is not weak in the first place.Not long ago, hundreds of active combat forces were gathered, including four "ranked" trainers.

I don’t need to take many people with me on this trip. During this period, the defense of Weibin City still needs the joint efforts of all of you! "
