Compared to forces like the Dark Iron Dwarves, which have many trading channels, it is very difficult for forces like the Gnoll Tribe to obtain alcohol.

Normally, there are forces like goblins who are desperate for money. Occasionally, they will exchange bad wine with them for some potions and furs.

Now that Zhang Weidao is willing to take care of food and housing, and can also provide precious drinks as benefits, there is really no pressure for the Jackal executives to sell the entire tribe.

These jackal leaders thought very clearly. Instead of spending so much time hunting and robbing to feed the tribe every day, why not rent everyone out and have a good future.

Since the orcs invaded the Western Wilderness, the living space of each tribe has been greatly squeezed. They have tried several times to resist, but they have been unable to shake the pace of the orc army's sweep.

Those violent and savage orcs not only plundered all the food on human farms, but also hunted wild beasts everywhere, almost depleting the prey that the gnolls relied on for survival.

Seeing that the tribal hunters were catching less and less prey, the employment agreement proposed by Zhang Weidao was exactly what the Jackal leader wanted. This solution that could solve all the troubles could not be better.

As for the shamans, they don't even care about the issue of power. They only care about how to steadily obtain sacrifices to please the elemental spirits.

That mysterious force can provide precious wine for sacrifices, allowing them to better communicate with the elemental spirits. What is more important than attracting the elemental spirits?

And wouldn’t it be great if this would stop our compatriots from going hungry and make it easier to obtain needed supplies?

So from Zhang Weidao's point of view, this contract, which was comparable to hiring workers in black factories, was passed.

The leaders and shamans of each tribe had no objections. The upper echelons of these tribes were full of enthusiasm to gather their tribesmen and prepare to send them to the mines tomorrow to work in order to earn food rations.

The next morning, Zhang Weidao was packing up his belongings after finishing his morning class, when he saw Wu Ping running all the way, sweating profusely, running here.

I was wondering why Wu Ping didn't go to train his soldiers so early in the morning, but why he looked so anxious that he was almost smoking.

Over there, Wu Ping was still dozens of meters away and shouted excitedly: "Your Excellency! There are so many gnolls coming outside the city wall. It looks like there are more gnolls than the orc army attacking Stormwind City!"

When Zhang Weidao heard Wu Ping's shouting, his hand shook and he almost dropped the scripture. Then he thought that the jackal was probably looking for a job. After all, yesterday he made a request to recruit people.

So after Qiang calmed down for a moment, he reprimanded loudly: "Don't be so panicked, it's just that a large group of jackals came looking for work! Are you making such a fuss?"

Then he added, "Go to the bottom of the mine and call the old blind man and the others. I'll go outside the city to check the situation first!"

After sending Wu Ping to ask for foreign aid, Zhang Weidao walked outside anxiously.

When I walked out of the mine, I saw a mess outside. There were only a few staff in the simple canteen that was usually crowded. The other soldiers were all hurriedly preparing ordnance. It looked like they were about to start a war.

Zhang Weidao called to Tie Chi, who was arranging the soldiers' defense. At this time, the kobold warrior leader was sweating profusely, and his already wretched rat face was squeezed into a ball.

As the officer in charge of night guard work, I was frightened when I encountered such a large formation of gnolls during the shift change. There were tens of thousands of gnolls outside the city!

Tie Chi quickly asked the guards who were preparing to take over the shift to put on armor, and at the same time asked Wu Ping to notify Zhang Weidao to come and suppress the formation.

At this time, seeing Zhang Weidao arriving in time, he breathed a sigh of relief. He led Zhang Weidao to the city wall and got vaccinated first.

"My lord, you must be mentally prepared! Just now I took a look at my calves and my calves were no longer in control. There was a large, dark mass of jackals down there!"

When Tie Chi described the scene under the city to Zhang Weidao, the hand holding the weapon was still shaking a little, and it seemed that he was really frightened.

"It doesn't matter. We have seen tens of thousands of green-skinned orcs. Aren't there several times more of these jackals!"

"Besides, they are not here to start a war. Just treat them as a group of ordinary people going to the market."

Zhang Weidao was giving Tie Chi some guidance, and at the same time he was encouraging himself.

As a result, as soon as I climbed onto the city wall, I saw the smoky atmosphere outside, and the chaotic crowd of jackals covering the entire land, giving people a sense of suffocation at a glance.

This scene is not comparable to the tens of thousands of orcs. The orcs were defeated before they were fully spread out. There is no way to present such an overwhelming scene that sweeps everything.

The gnolls came here with the intention of making a living, but their ferocious faces and terrifying numbers were too intimidating.

Every one of the guards on the city wall had their legs trembling, and they had to puff up their chests and pretend not to be afraid at all, for fear that they would be seen by the jackals below and be thrown into the endless sea in disgrace.

Seeing the guards trying to maintain their composure, Zhang Weidao praised them with great satisfaction, and then called out to the jackals below the city, asking them to notify the leaders to come over.

When Zhang Weidao walked down the city wall, Old Blind Man also rushed over. The two of them led a group of fishmen and opened the city gate and walked out.

With Old Blind Eye, a senior hero-level warrior holding the battle, and Zhang Weidao and more than a dozen murloc leaders assisting from the side, the city gate can be defended even if all the jackals outside riot.

These murloc leaders brought by the old blind eye are all carefully trained disciples. Each one has a strength close to the hero level and can stand firm in the face of the huge crowds outside.

When the jackal leaders of the major tribes outside the city saw Zhang Weidao and Lao Blind Eye coming out, they immediately ran over excitedly and talked about their respective situations.

Zhang Weidao's head felt a little swollen after listening to the mess, and the old blind man only managed to calm these guys down with an angry roar.

They began to line up in an orderly manner and took turns introducing their situation to Zhang Weidao, the big benefactor.

After each tribe leader introduced the number of personnel provided and the ratio of soldiers and civilians, Zhang Weidao asked the material officer arranged yesterday to take them to get rations and cooking utensils.

These guys must have not had breakfast before coming here so early, and the general habits of these tribes are relatively clear.

The old blind man had a lot of dealings with the jackal tribe, and he mentioned the living conditions of these guys to Zhang Weidao.

Basically, I only eat one meal a day. Unless there is abundant prey, I will eat two meals a day, so I will definitely report hungry early in the morning.

As expected, when the jackals who were whispering among each other saw the leader leading people to get food, they all immediately became quiet and waited for the leader to bring the food.

When they saw that the leader had successfully received the rations and cooking utensils, the guys were so happy that they grinned from ear to ear. As soon as the leader spoke, he set up the cooking utensils and started making various preparations for cooking.

Watching these jackals skillfully setting up pots and lighting fires, and the shamans directly casting spells to summon water to flow into the pots, Zhang Weidao secretly lamented that the power of this spell was so convenient.

The ratio of spellcasters among jackals is really high, almost reaching a ratio of five hundred to one, which is much higher than the ratio of one thousand to one for humans.

Each tribe has a shaman who is casting spells to summon water resources. Several large tribes even have several shamans who are providing convenience. Together, these spell casters can form a small mage group.
