Chapter 467: The Expedition Failed
Hearing this, the teammates couldn't help but sigh. In just one week, nearly a thousand middle and high-level troops were injured and killed, and there were more than 20 top three-star Nisgu special warriors, which made people feel a little distressed, and they couldn't help but look at Li Ran again. (.
However, the latter's expression was still calm, and he didn't seem to care too much about it. He just looked like he was thinking about something. After a long time, Li Ran suddenly asked the old village chief Molga, who was beside him: "Please prepare the supplies again. The amount is about the same as before. In a few days, the troops need to go on a war again."
Everyone was stunned and asked the reason. They had just failed once before and lost so many troops. If they were to make such a decision because of a momentary aura, it would be a bit inappropriate to make such a decision.
Zhou Xun was the first to stand up and expressed his disagreement, and said bluntly that it was a lucky chance to be able to come back for the first time. Now he has lost nearly a thousand troops, which further shows that the territory does not have the ability to enter the endless snowy realm, especially in terms of troops, it is not suitable for snowy realm combat. I hope Li Ran will not be impulsive.
Although there is no connection, everyone's ideas are obviously similar. Although the territory is not weak now, they really cannot withstand such consumption. Instead of fighting these unsure wars in the endless snow, it is better to focus on the development of the surrounding environment. ┡┢┢.?
But Li Ran obviously didn't think so, but seeing that everyone was silent, he had to explain: "Our exhibition is in a bottleneck period, and many practical buildings have not been built yet. If you just wait for the minerals to be opened too slowly, you can only obtain more resources through war."
After pausing, Li Ran continued: "One more thing is that through these two expeditions, we all have more understanding of the Endless Snowland. And why the Snow Leopard tribe attacked us this time made me suspect that there might be a Snow Leopard tribe territory near the hot spring area. Our arrival made them vigilant, so we didn't try to force us to leave with force, but the other party did not have enough troops. Otherwise, our team would definitely not be able to come back this time. So in addition to expanding resources through war, I hope to find out the location of this Snow Leopard tribe territory. If we can occupy a territory in the Endless Snowland, the harsh environment of the Endless Snowland is our best defense. In the future, if our territory here encounters danger, we can also retreat there to ensure that our people can survive."
He said so much in one breath, and Li Ran stopped again. After a long time, he said leisurely: "A few months ago, we saw those large and even class tribes passing by. If our territory wants to be developed, ═┝.<. After a while, the weather will warm up, we can only attack them. But once we fail, we can go there in addition to the underground world. So I wonder if we can occupy our own territory in the endless snowy area."
It was not until this time that everyone understood Li Ran’s intention and couldn’t help but sigh at his careful consideration. Zhou Xun and other teammates also cast admirational gazes, and Zhou Xun was even more unaware of what to do. He thought it was because this period was too smooth and Li Ran could not tolerate any failure, so he impulsively ordered the order. At this time, he couldn’t help but feel a little ashamed.
Looking at Zhou Xun, Li Ran smiled and said, "But the situations mentioned by Captain Zhou do exist. Maybe we will lose troops and generals again. Many heroic soldiers will die in battle. But for the sake of the development of the territory and the safety of the tribe in the future, we must prepare for the future. Even if we give our lives, we must avoid all risks for them."
There was a silence in the field for a long time. As Gao Yan's Tauren led Saguier to war, the crowd around him also joined in. Soon the sound of fighting spread throughout the territory. Everyone was full of fighting spirit, and they felt like they were in a great way to conquer the endless snowy land.
Unlike the residents and soldiers of the Third World. Zhou Xun and his teammates saw this situation and couldn't help but sigh that Li Ran's vision and ability were originally a defeat. After a few words from him, not only convinced everyone, but also made the soldiers burst out with a stronger morale and combat effectiveness than before. His methods were truly overturned, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe for Li Ran from the bottom of his heart.
The next night, Li Ran summoned everyone in the conference hall and had a deeper discussion on this expedition. The troops were similar to before, but the route was adjusted. At the same time, Xia Houben also went out with the team, greatly strengthening the command ability of the expedition personnel.
However, the troops who set out this time returned after only ten days of walking. Unfortunately, they encountered a sudden blizzard attack on the way. While hurriedly looking for shelter, they stepped into the territory of the Grey Stonemen again and were besieged by nearly ten thousand stonemen. The loss of troops reached half, and nearly two thousand middle and high-level soldiers died.
Just when the entire territory was in sorrow, Li Ran was not ready to stop and sent troops twice in a row. Except for the third time, he did not lose many troops, and brought back some snow ape prisoners and furs. The fourth time he personally led his troops, he was even defeated. He lost nearly 2,000 troops again, which reduced the strength of the entire territory by half. Xia Houben, Shadow Blade, including Cao Dayong, Zhang Juan, Zhang Debiao and Sun Jianye who had just been promoted and returned, all died in the Endless Snowland. Fortunately, the first two levels were high enough, and although they could still stay on the battle map once, the other four had to continue to level up on the world map.
It was this time that Li Ran and others finally discovered the territory of the Snow Leopard people. It turned out that the territory they were located was a hidden place in a mountain peak in the mountains not far from the hot spring. In the preliminary investigation, in addition to tens of thousands of ice fields, the Snow Leopard warriors reached more than 20,000, and nearly 6,000 high-level Storm Snow Peng and Snow Giant. They lost to them in the previous battle. Unfortunately, Li Ran's troops, who were not as good as the Snow Leopard troops who went to fight, fled back after nearly 1,000 people died in battle, but at the same time, they also lost a lot of troops to the other side.
The fifth expedition was not too long. Because of the failures several times in a row, Li Ran did not explain much this time, and directly ordered all the red gold minerals in the territory to be sold, and then exchanged for more than 1,000 high-level troops and some secret silver and magic crystals. After recruiting 1oo Samsung Nisguts, Dorik asked to bring the Queen Sonaya and Grand Duke Renes who had been imprisoned back to the capital. With a lot of gold coins and specialties, he recruited 5oo steel shield guards.
This time, Li Ran also fought for all the troops, and his territory's troops were in full swing. In addition to nearly 30,000 top-level troops of three-star Nius Gun warriors and the same number of top-level troops of Zerela Beast Cavalry. All the middle and high-level troops were on the battlefield, and the recent 5ooo steel shield guards, the overall number exceeded 10,000.
