C1804 The Problem after the War
Although they had defeated Lan Ying's army, Ye Xu's army wasn't completely intact.
After the Iron Skin Crocodile rushed into the city wall, it had indeed killed quite a number of people. After that, Lee Mutou led the Wood Tribe to defend the Iron Skin Crocodile with all their might. During the process of the battle, some of the Iron Skin Crocodile broke free and killed many people from the logging and dwarf tribes.
In comparison, the Tree Spirit Clan was the only one that was in good condition. The Centaur Cavalry could not even get close to it, so the Tree Spirit Clan was not injured.
"Sigh... War is really cruel!"
Ye Xu looked at the blood red sun and shook his head.
He had already achieved victory in these three battles, but even so, he had still caused quite a bit of damage to the army.
"Looks like the army needs to be upgraded! What we lack now is a close-combat tribe. Un..."
After analyzing the results of the battle in his soul sea, Ye Xu let out a breath of foul air. At this moment, his body felt slightly warm, and a cloak appeared on his body.
Ye Xu turned his head in shock and saw Tree Spirit Princess's bright red face.
"Don't misunderstand, I... I'm just afraid that you will catch a cold..."
Tree Spirit Princess's voice became softer and softer. She had thought about this reason for a long time, but when she really said it, she did not have any confidence at all.
Who was Ye Xu? He was an existence that could not be invaded by cold and heat. He actually knew how to catch a cold by blowing the wind. There was no better excuse than this.
For a moment, Tree Spirit Princess's heart was filled with shame and anger. She only wanted to care about Ye Xu. Why couldn't she come here openly? Why did she have to find such a clumsy excuse?
Ye Xu was a figure. Naturally, he could see the disappointment and grievance in Tree Spirit Princess's eyes. Immediately, he tightened his cloak and said with a smile, "Thank you. I feel a little cold!"
This simple sentence made Tree Spirit Princess feel as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders. She revealed a sweet smile.
The Tree Spirit Clan itself was the spirit of all trees. It was full of spiritual energy, especially Tree Spirit Princess. She was the most beautiful of all beauties. Even if she was compared to all of Ye Xu's women, she wouldn't be any less beautiful.
Now that Tree Spirit Princess was expressing her goodwill towards him, Ye Xu wasn't an idiot. Naturally, he could feel Tree Spirit Princess's feelings towards him. He didn't refuse because everything would go with the flow. If there was fate between him and Tree Spirit Princess... Then, they would eventually be together.
"Let's go. The smell of blood on the battlefield is too strong. I'm afraid it will attract wild beasts. We must get rid of them in time!"
Ye Xu said with a smile.
The shyness in Tree Spirit Princess's heart faded and she became generous.
"Lee Mutou and the others are already dealing with it. What should we do next?"
Ye Xu nodded and said, "I have also been thinking about this matter. After cleaning up the battlefield, we need to make a good plan!"
Lee Mutou and the others were very tired, but in order to not let the corpses rot and become a plague, and to attract wild beasts, they used their tired bodies to move the corpses.
Fortunately, the people hiding in the city also came out to help. Soon, all the corpses were cleaned up.
Ye Xu let Lee Mutou and the others rest for an hour, then he gathered everyone.
"Everyone has worked hard, especially Patriarch Lee Mutou. If he didn't react in time, we really wouldn't be able to defend this time!"
Ye Xu smiled and nodded at Lee Mutou.
Lee Mutou smiled honestly and shook his head. "Actually, I did not think about anything else at that time. I just wanted to protect my home!"
Ye Xu said, "No, this is very important. Although I have arranged a strategy for you, but I also said that when the war starts, no one could control it, because the battlefield was changing at every moment. That's why I need all of you to face different situations and make your own judgments. This time, Lee Mutou has given us a very good example! "
"It's precisely because of his timely reaction that he watered the Iron Skin Crocodile with the mineral liquid. Once our inner city is breached, what awaits us will be a bloody massacre!"
Hearing Ye Xu's serious words, everyone recalled the situation at that time, and their faces instantly turned pale.1
It was indeed as Ye Xu said. If Lee Mutou did not react in time and decisively used a desperate method, once the Iron Skin Crocodile massacred, the Logging Tribe and the Gnome Tribe would immediately suffer heavy injuries.
Once the two large tribes suffered heavy injuries, the One-eyed Giant outside the city wall would charge over. The war would immediately end, with Ye Xu's complete defeat as the result.
Tree Spirit Princess, Gnomes Clan Leader and the others expressed their sincere gratitude to Lee Mutou.
Lee Mutou, on the other hand, felt a little embarrassed. His face was red, and he had a silly look on his face.
Ye Xu pressed his hands on the air and said, "This battle is over. Let's summarize our experience. Make up for your shortcomings and forget about this battle. We will completely forget about this battle. Don't get addicted to this victory. Because the war isn't over yet! "
Hearing Ye Xu's serious words, the expressions on everyone's faces became serious.
"There are two things that we need to do urgently right now!"
Ye Xu raised two fingers and said, "The first is to continue building the city, because the solid city wall can completely block the enemy's attack. If our city wall is completed, the Iron Skin Crocodile can fly over. It's impossible for us to have so many of them!"
Gnomes Clan Leader nodded and said, "Young master, don't worry. I will definitely speed up the speed of building the city wall, but there is a problem!"
"What problem?"
Ye Xu asked.
Gnomes Clan Leader looked at Tree Spirit Princess and Lee Mutou and said with a red face, "It's like this, young master. At first, we didn't expect to build a city. Plus, the requirements of the city walls were high, so we didn't have enough ores. After all, there are still a lot of ores to be used to make bows and arrows! "
"Un, it is used so quickly!"
Ye Xu was shocked. When the Gnomish tribe showed him the ores, it was really a huge amount.
Gnomes Clan Leader lowered his head in embarrassment. His face was red.
Ye Xu let out a breath and said with a smile, "This is indeed a problem. The consumption of the ore is beyond our expectation. We must find a new mine!"
Hearing that Ye Xu did not blame him, Gnomes Clan Leader slowly relaxed.
He frowned and said, "Young master, the area within a hundred miles is under the surveillance of us dwarves. There are no more mines!"
“ Mm!"
Ye Xu frowned. It was hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. Even if his ability was extraordinary, it was impossible for him to produce ores out of thin air.
In fact, stones could also be used to build city walls, but the texture of the stones was different. It was enough to resist ordinary attacks, but against a one-eyed giant, it was no different from tofu.
