After a while, Lu Ming and Xu Feng had similar temperaments, and they began to call each other brothers at the dinner table.
In the dispute between the orcs and the reserve lords, both of them gave priority to expelling the orcs, and the territorial dispute was secondary. If the orcs were not eliminated, the development of the territory would not be guaranteed for long-term stability.
Lu Ming introduced Xu Feng into the inner room, where a huge sand table topography map was placed in the center.
On the sand table, various forces are intertwined. There are as many as a hundred or ten reserve lords, and dense orc legions are marked on the map.
"Brother Xu, this is the distribution of surrounding forces that I have collected. There are hundreds of reserve lords. Among them, the most powerful ones are Luzhuang and Shicheng. They both have tens of thousands of troops and many fifth-level people are in charge."
"The surrounding Orc forces are also extremely powerful. Currently, there are more than 200,000 Orc legions encircling and strangulating us in our various territories."
Lu Ming introduced all the forces to Xu Feng on the sand table. In his words, he wanted to form an alliance with Xu Feng, and use Chuanlonggu-Luzhuang as the line to develop an alliance between the north and the south.
The north side was developed by Lu Zhuang, and the south side was handed over to Xu Feng. If orcs or other reserve lords attacked, the two would support each other.
Regarding Xu Feng's first arrival, Lu Ming was also generous and willing to share the information he knew.
Xu Feng readily agreed to Lu Ming's request.
"Master, Xu Cheng's military strength is not comparable to ours. We would be at a loss by forming an alliance with them."
After Xu Feng left, the generals around Lu Ming spoke.
Lu Ming smiled slightly and shook his head.
Xu Feng first came to Yuanfang Mansion, but after two battles, the potential for war has been revealed.
We have nothing to lose by forming an alliance. If we don't give him some information, he will know it sooner or later. It's better to form a good relationship as soon as possible.
Xu Feng returned to Xucheng, told everyone about the alliance with Luzhuang, changed the existing defensive strategy, and shifted the main attack direction to the south.
But before that, there is another hidden scourge that needs to be eradicated, and someone needs to pay for the heroic souls of the soldiers who lost their lives in Xucheng!
In Xiaoyue City, the place was in a mess. Wu Sigui vented his violent emotions in the city lord's palace. One after another, his plans against Xu Cheng failed, making Wu Sigui extremely angry.
Especially this time, when Xucheng was about to lose its gates, Lu Zhuang actually intervened. He had conspired with Lu Zhuang to capture Xucheng, but Lu Ming didn't appreciate it, so he turned around and helped Xucheng.
Wu Sigui called the maid outside the door and pulled her into his arms.
"I'm very angry right now."
There was a loud sound inside the door, but the guard outside the door turned a deaf ear.
In the sky above Xiaoyue City, Xu Feng rode the undead thunder eagle and stared at the lights of the city lord's mansion. The thunder eagle landed rapidly and stayed on Wu Sigui's roof.
Wu Sigui's personal guard commander was sweating like rain. Two fifth-level skeleton warriors stood in front of her. He, a fourth-level mid-level man, looked at the two fifth-level strong men, standing like minions. This is too flattering to me. I How can a small fourth level person be so virtuous?
The two guards guarding the door fainted under Barak's sleeping spell. A soundproof circle was set up around the room so that no sound would be transmitted.
Pushing open the door, Wu Sigui was still working hard.
The sudden sound of the door opening made him frantic.
"You blind bitch, get out of here!"
Xu Feng looked at Wu Sigui and chuckled. Such a thing actually tricked Xu Cheng twice.
Seeing that the person coming was actually the Lord of Xucheng, Wu Sigui was horrified and hurriedly turned over and shouted loudly.
Looking at Wu Sigui's naked and embarrassed appearance, Xu Feng shook his head. Barak nailed Wu Sigui to the bedside with a third-level magic, and the lord of Xiaoyue City ended his life like this.
Awakening the guards outside the door and enslaving them mentally, one went to open the city gate with the city lord's warrant to welcome the Xu Cheng team outside the city to change the city gate's defense.
Others went to the various armies to summon the generals, and with Wu Sigui's command, everyone went to the city lord's mansion to discuss important matters.
"By the order of the city lord, please go to the city lord's palace to discuss matters. The matter is important, please leave immediately."
The Fiery Horse Camp was a team led by Wu Sigui. Thousands of people in the camp were all black-maned wildebeest cavalry. The captain looked at the messenger in front of him with a somewhat confused expression.
His own army was Wu Sigui's favorite, and he had the most frequent contact with the city lord. The tone of the order sent by the messenger this time was completely different from Wu Sigui's style.
It was true that the messenger in front of him was Wu Sigui's guard, but his expression always made him feel strange and a little less human.
"I dare to ask the city lord how he is feeling today and if there is anything he needs to discuss."
The captain tried to test the situation, but the ordering soldier did not respond. He just conveyed the order and turned around to leave.
Looking at the messenger, the commander drew out his long sword and slashed at the messenger. A burst of blood suddenly flowed from his shoulder, but the messenger still walked towards the city lord's mansion mechanically.
The captain saw something was wrong and killed the messenger with one sword, and hurriedly summoned his troops. The messenger was so weird that the city lord's palace was probably in danger.
Barak sensed the direction where the messenger lost contact and sent a skeleton warrior there.
In the palace of the city lord, the four captains looked at each other. It was already midnight. Why did the city lord summon us if he didn't sleep with his maid in his arms?
Xu Feng appeared in front of the captains. The unfamiliar face immediately made the captains feel frightened. One of the captains looked familiar, and a light flashed in his mind. The person who came was actually the lord of Xu City!
City Lord Wu Sigui plotted against others twice, but it seems that the other party found out and came to settle the score. He hunted geese all year round, but was eventually tricked by the geese.
"Greetings to City Lord Xu. City Lord Xu came to visit late at night. He was not welcomed at a distance, but he is willing to do his best."
The captain hurriedly knelt down.
Xu Feng appeared in the city lord's palace intact and summoned everyone. This was too obvious. It was obvious that Wu Sigui had become a thing of the past.
When the other three captains saw that they were all thoughtful people, they all knelt on the ground, handed over their troops and horses, and were willing to serve under Xu Feng.
Xu Feng looked at the four people kneeling in front of him and felt a little funny. He hadn't used the words he had prepared yet. He shook his body and surrendered without fighting.
At the gate of Liema Camp, a fifth-level low-grade skeleton warrior, fully armed, stood silently at the gate of the camp, holding Wu Sigui's clothes in his hands.
The captain of Liema Camp looked at the fifth-level skeleton warrior and was horrified. The huge strength gap made him realize the reality. The clothes on the ground also showed Wu Sigui's ending.
Throwing their weapons on the ground, the cavalrymen of Liema Battalion dismounted and knelt on the side of their mounts, willing to surrender to the rule of the new city lord.
