Chapter 233 Territory Ruins on the Grassland
Waving his hand, Mo Yu asked the goblin messenger to call Zhong Han and asked about the situation of the external battles in recent days.
Since he had already let everyone go to train, he didn't pay too much attention to it.
As long as it's nothing serious, he won't be disturbed.
From Zhong Han, he learned that he had wiped out two small herds of about 500 people, a grassland tribe of nearly a thousand people, and nearly ten small herds of animals.
Nearly a hundred pack animals suitable for carrying goods, more than thirty wolves, and a large amount of wild animal skins, claws, blood, bones and other materials were seized.
In addition, the team also discovered two wild troop nests, a fourth-level nest for recruiting fire bears and a third-level nest for recruiting halflings.
Although he knew that the halfling nest was the one he had discovered before, he still gave his praise generously.
"Tell me about the situation of these two types of troops?" Mo Yu looked at Zhong Han.
Zhong Han nodded and answered without hesitation: "The Fire Bear is a third-tier soldier. It has a very bad temper and is prone to conflicts. It is not recommended to recruit it. You can consider dismantling the heart of its soldier nest."
"As for the halflings, their combat power is too weak, and their recruitment value is not great, which is a waste of resources. Their troop nests cannot be dismantled due to their low level, so it is recommended that they be used as a short-term training ground."
Mo Yu nodded with satisfaction. Zhong Han’s report was very comprehensive and he also put forward his own suggestions.
Mo Yu still recognized his abilities.
"Just do as you say. We'll demolish the fire bears and keep the halflings for training."
"Also, gather the people. I'm going to go out today to explore the giant red tree in the forest. We don't need too many people. The main thing is to protect my safety."
"Understood. I'll arrange personnel immediately."
After saying that, Zhong Han simply turned around and left.
Now, in the territory, all external military operations and internal training are arranged by Zhong Han.
Originally, Mo Yu was planning to let Salt take over the foreign military operations.
However, this guy said that he already had extremely heavy teaching tasks and refused to accept it no matter what.
As for Bruman, after becoming the commander of the Battle Axe Legion, he was in charge of more than a thousand people, so naturally he didn't have the energy.
Mo Yu simply let Zhong Han, who was in charge of training, take on the role as his follower, and he could trust him enough.
Under Zhong Han's assembly order, the outgoing team quickly gathered.
In the square of the territory, on the bluestone ground built up piece by piece by bluestone towers, a small phalanx of about one hundred minotaurs stood quietly.
They looked solemn and did not look away.
Bruman stood at the front, head held high.
Mo Yu nodded with satisfaction. After several days of hard training, the results were quite good.
In addition to going out to fight, the soldiers of the two legions repeat military posture, drill training and physical training on the training ground every day.
Although the time is not long, it has basically reached the standard of strict enforcement of orders.
Of course, this refers to normal daily conditions. It will probably take some time to train yourself to enforce discipline in a war situation.
In comparison, warriors from other tribes are weaker in this regard.
This is also related to the fact that their current training tasks are not heavy, and the training time is far from reaching the twelve hours a day of the two legions.
But even so, the discipline is much stronger than before.
After all, those unfortunate guys who disobeyed orders have already demonstrated with their lives what the consequences will be.
Next to the Tauren Legion stood Teemo, with his head held high and chest puffed out, and behind him were ten shadow scouts as black as ink.
This is the team for this trip. Oh, by the way, there is also Lai Fu under Mo Yu's feet, and the three Mu Qiao brothers who enthusiastically asked to join.
After saying a few simple words and waving his hand, the team set off.
Shadow scouts were scattered in front, and the minotaurs formed a guard formation, wrapping Mo Yu in it.
Compared to the scattered formation in the past, the Minotaur guard formation is now much tighter, taking into account the front, back, left and right.
"How was the investigation today?"
Mo Yu, who was in the middle of the team, was chatting with Timo.
Timo held a blowgun and followed the team at a quick pace, saying, "Just like the previous two days, no large tribe was detected approaching. But there is a new discovery. Today, we found the ruins of a territory on the grassland." "Territory ruins?" Mo Yu became interested.
"Yes, judging from the traces, it must have been breached in the past two days." Timo said with a 'hmm'.
"Have we been attacked by the migrating tribe? But why haven't we been occupied?" Mo Yu looked thoughtful. In the past two days, it was very likely that we were attacked by the migrating tribe along the way.
Perhaps this territory suffered heavy losses in the previous Wild Moon and could not survive this disaster.
Timo nodded his head, "I can't rule out this possibility. As for why it hasn't been occupied... maybe there's something wrong with the territory crystal!"
Mo Yu thought about it carefully and this was the only possibility.
The wild monster forces that conquer the world will not give up the opportunity to occupy territory if given the chance.
If they didn't occupy it, the most likely possibility was that they didn't get the territory crystal.
Perhaps it was this lord who voluntarily gave up his status as a lord and became an adventurer, taking the territory crystal with him.
Although the territory crystal would be of no use to him as an adventurer, at least the tribe that attacked his territory would not be able to obtain the crystal and gain the status of lord.
Of course, there are other possibilities.
For example, in the world of war, the migratory tribe is the lowest-status wild monster force and does not have the authority to occupy territory.
Mo Yu had no idea of the specific reason.
But it did not stop him from remaining highly vigilant.
Although the other party may have just passed by the edge of reconnaissance and their migration direction would not pass through the territory, necessary vigilance is still required.
"During this period, the reconnaissance will mainly focus on the northwest, and pay more attention to the situation on the grassland. Once there is any trace of a large tribe, report to me immediately." Mo Yu reminded again and again.
It has been nearly half a week since the cold wave began, and this is the first time that traces of a large tribe have appeared.
I believe this is just the beginning. Next, more monster forces will migrate from the depths of the grassland.
Some may leave quietly from other directions, while others may just pass by the territory and rob the previous ones.
Timo said that he would follow the instructions and conduct investigation seriously.
While talking, the team quickly entered the jungle.
Mo Yu fell silent and became extremely alert.
Despite the protection of the Minotaur, the visibility in the forest was too poor and there were all kinds of strange plants. No one could guarantee that they would not be attacked.
The team moved quietly through the jungle, occasionally hearing the sound of minotaurs chopping plants in front.
With the wild growth of plants in the forest, if the roads are not regularly maintained, they will soon be covered by thorns and vines without leaving any trace.
This road leads to the gold mine, which is also the road to the valley where the fallen monsters once sank.
Occasionally, the territory would send a team over there, so although there were vines on the road, there were not many, and the impact on the team's speed was not particularly serious.
However, when we arrived at the gold mine and continued to go deeper inside, our speed was forced to slow down a lot.
The large number of overgrown vines greatly increased the difficulty for the minotaurs to clear a path.
Mo Yu was wearing dragon blood armor and walking in the center of the team.
This epic armor, which was opened from a five-star stronghold treasure chest, has much stronger defense than the Rune Armor.
Its passive characteristic, Dragon's Blessing, can reduce 30% of all damage.
It is also one of the parts of the Dragon Blood Set. As you continue to collect it, you can continuously unlock new abilities.
The Dragon Blood Armor is a heavy armor. Fortunately, Mo Yu had read more than ten books of physique some time ago. Now his physique attributes are pretty good, so he can afford to wear this set of armor.
However, with the protection of Tauren and Shadow Scouts along the way, this set of Dragon Blood Armor did not get the opportunity to demonstrate its capabilities.
At noon, the big fiery red tree appeared in sight under the low hill.
Under the tree, there are a large number of plants like hyacinths spread out, swaying in the wind, like a world in a painting.
However, this beautiful scenery is occupied by some uninvited guests.
