The further you go to the edge of the continent, the fewer people there are and the poorer the resources. The further you go to the center, the more people there are and the richer the resources.
However, the right center of the Orc Continent, a location with the best geographical location and the richest resources, has been occupied by a huge country for countless years.
It is the undisputed overlord of the Orc Continent - the Sirius Empire! Few people know the history of the Sirius Empire, nor do they know when it rose to power. It is just that in their memories, the Sirius Empire is supreme, as if it was born that way.
Over the years, wars broke out from time to time in other countries, and there was even a ranking war every ten years. The whole continent seemed very uneasy, but these seemed to have nothing to do with the Sirius Empire. It was still high above, looking down on all living beings.
at this time.
The Sirius Empire in the center of the continent.
In a tall and majestic ancient building, two burly orcs with white hair, blue eyes and pointed ears sat opposite each other and played chess.
This is the wolf chess unique to their Sirius Empire. It is easy to get started, but difficult to master.
"I heard something happened in the ranking battle?"
One of the middle-aged male orcs asked.
"Yes, it seems that a force called the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce has emerged and disrupted the original balance."
The young male orc opposite him answered.
The middle-aged orc paused, raised his head, and asked in confusion:
"Break the balance?"
"That's right. The Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce helped the eleventh-ranked Hobro Kingdom defeat the tenth-ranked Babus Kingdom and become the new tenth-ranked Kingdom."
The young orc explained.
After saying this, the middle-aged orc fell silent.
"Father, should we intervene?"
The young orc's tone was a little hesitant. Although he didn't know why a ranking battle was held every ten years, there was basically no big fluctuation in each ranking battle. This time, the rise in the ranking of the Kingdom of Hobro was a bit unexpected.
"Intervention? We should intervene!" The middle-aged orc paused, then continued, "It's only the tenth place. This is not strong enough!"
"ah?"
The young orc was confused. This was somewhat different from what he had expected.
As if seeing the young orc's doubt, the middle-aged orc smiled and said:
"Have you always been curious about why we hold a ranking battle every ten years?"
"Yes!"
The young orc was a little excited. Could it be that he was finally qualified to know this secret?
"There's no point in being curious. I can only tell you when you take my place."
The middle-aged man shrugged.
“…”
The young orc was speechless. He was fooled again, but the other party was his father, so he could only accept it.
"But I can tell you a little bit, which is one of the reasons for the war. That is because our resources are too scarce, but the orcs' fertility is too strong. If we don't control it, our resources will be consumed sooner or later. Therefore, war is necessary. We need to consume the excessive population."
The young orc was a little confused when he heard the word "resource-poor". In his opinion, the Orc Continent might be very poor in other places, but the Sirius Empire had a lot of resources, so much that they could even be distributed to other countries. Is this also called resource-poor? "But I don't think we are resource-poor?"
Faced with the young orc's doubts, the middle-aged orc's face suddenly became serious.
"That's because you are from the Sirius tribe, and your country is called the Sirius Empire."
The young orc was not stupid. After hearing what the middle-aged orc said, he seemed to understand a little bit, and then he said thoughtfully:
"So, what you mean is that the number of orc deaths is still too small? So we need to increase our efforts?"
But the middle-aged orc shook his head.
"That's not the case. I just simply think that those who are ranked high are too comfortable! When our ancestors made this rule, they also wanted to hone them. But after their rankings were fixed, they no longer had the desire to improve."
“It’s not a good sign to lose the competitive spirit!”
"It's just that the rules were made by our ancestors, so we can't change them at will. If there is a force that breaks the balance now, that's what I hope to see. This Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce may be able to bring some vitality back to the lifeless Orc Continent!"
The middle-aged orc's blue eyes were shining and bloodthirsty.
"Then we are just going to ignore the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce? I heard that some people speculated that the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce came from another continent, not from our Orc Continent..."
There was some worry in the young orc's words.
"Another continent? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
However, this statement was immediately rejected by the middle-aged orc, and he rejected it very firmly.
Obviously, the middle-aged orc had a reason for saying this, but he did not elaborate on the specific reason.
This made the young orc very uncomfortable. He felt that he should not have been involved in this game. He was being criticized all the time and he could not refute.
"How about this, you go there in person and observe the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce. If they can disrupt the situation, you don't have to do anything. If they can't... you know!"
The middle-aged orc thought for a moment and said.
"Yes, father!"
Hearing his father say that he could go out, the young orc's tone became a little excited.
In the Sirius Empire, he only slept and trained. Oh, and he was also bullied every day. It was too boring! If he could go out for a walk, it would definitely make him happy! "Well, by the way, I heard that the food in the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce is very good. Don't forget to bring some back for me and your mother."
"yes!"
…
Danga country, new town.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Zhang Feng sat in the first seat, listening to the complaints of Rat Da below.
"...Now there are a lot of orcs coming to our Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce to do business every day. We are a little short of manpower these days!"
"It's just that these people mainly wanted us to help fight, but I rejected them all!"
"Some people have taken a different approach. They want to pay us not to help hostile countries, but I rejected that as well!"
"Of course, due to the increase in the number of outsiders, the flow of people to our Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce's stores and hotels has also increased a lot, and the daily turnover has increased several times!"
"The most important thing is our Red Leaf Bank. As the reputation of our Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce spreads, Red Leaf Bank is gaining more and more trust from everyone. Currently, the bank's liquid funds exceed 100 million gold coins, which is 10 billion Red Leaf coins!"
"besides……"
Looking at Shu Daqiang who was talking nonstop, Zhang Feng nodded with satisfaction.
Although he knew that Shu Daqiang seemed to be complaining, he was actually showing off.
But he could understand. After all, Shu Daqiang’s contribution was indelible for the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce to be able to develop in the Orc Continent.
It cannot be said that the current Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce has developed very well, but it can be said that it has gained a firm foothold and has a place in the Orc Continent.
Especially in Danga Country, it has almost been mistaken for the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce's headquarters. After all, King Bennett has given the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce all kinds of conveniences, and the shadow of the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce is everywhere in the entire country.
Even in the hearts of the people of Danga, the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce is more reliable than their King!
If this wasn't the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce, but some other force, Bennett would never allow such a force to exist in Danga, because the other party almost had the power to make him step down! This was impossible for a king to allow.
But, this is the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce, a Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce with an extremely terrifying background! There is no way they would look down upon their small Danga country! That's why Bennett treated the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce like this, almost calling it daddy.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Zhang Feng looks down on this small country of Danga. Fortunately, the other party is so sensible. Shu Daqiang has also given him a lot of benefits and has not let him suffer any loss.
"Yes, thank you for your hard work these days."
Zhang Feng stood up and patted Shu Daqiang on the shoulder.
“It’s not hard, it’s not hard!”
Shu Daqiang said quickly.
He likes to manipulate money and make money with money. This is his hobby. In other words, the more work he does, the happier he is.
"How's that thing I asked you to pay attention to?"
Zhang Feng asked again.
"Although many strange orcs have come to Danga recently, no one from the Sirius Empire has been seen. Our intelligence department should not be wrong. The other party should not have arrived yet."
The iconic white hair and blue eyes of the Sirius tribe are still very conspicuous. Unless the other party has incredible camouflage skills, it is impossible not to be discovered. However, the other party is the overlord of the Orc Continent, so if they come, they must be open and aboveboard, and it is impossible for them to be sneaky.
"Well, you didn't come, is it because you don't care?"
Zhang Feng frowned.
If the other party really doesn't care, doesn't that mean that the little commotion he made is not even worth the other party's attention?
If this is the case, Zhang Feng would not be very happy, because this shows the confidence of the Sirius Empire and that they do not care about the rising Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce at all.
He didn't believe that the news had not reached the Sirius Empire. After all, it had been half a month, and even the slowest carrier eagle would have arrived. What's more, the Sirius Empire was the overlord of the Orc Continent, and their information channels were definitely very well-informed.
"Okay, you go down first. If there is any news about the Sirius Empire, inform me immediately."
Zhang Feng waved his hand.
"yes!"
After Shu Daqiang went down, the cat-eared girl trotted over with a walkie-talkie.
"Owner!"
"What's wrong?"
"Captain Jasmine of Hobro said that they found people from the Sirius Empire! They are coming towards us!"
The cat-eared girl said with a serious face.
When Zhang Feng came to the Orc Continent by airship, he brought Hill and Windsor with him, one as a bodyguard and the other as a secretary.
But here, Shu Daqiang had arranged many things, and Windsor was a little bored. Zhang Feng saw that she was bored, so he asked her to play the role of the communicator operator.
During the war some time ago, she was the one who operated the communicator. Now the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce has trained some communicators and is preparing to sell another batch of communicators. Windsor will only be responsible for communications related to Zhang Feng.
As for the Kingdom of Hobro, Zhang Feng gave them the right to talk to him because they were supported by the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce.
Of course, I can only contact the secretary.
After hearing Windsor's words, Zhang Feng stood up immediately.
"Sure enough, it's here!"
Zhang Feng was a little cautious, yet a little excited.
The Sirius Empire was probably the most powerful country he had ever encountered in this world. He felt excited just thinking about it.
"Did she say how many people came?"
Zhang Feng continued to ask.
"No, she just said there were quite a few people. She didn't see it with her own eyes, but her subordinates reported it to her."
The cat-eared girl explained.
"How long ago was the news?"
"Ten minutes ago, but Jasmine said that it took some time for his subordinates to report. It was probably between twenty and thirty minutes before they saw the soldiers of the Sirius Empire."
The cat-eared girl said as she looked at the records in her hand.
"Twenty to thirty minutes, which means that the soldiers of the Sirius Empire will arrive tonight at the earliest and within ten days at the latest. It seems that we need to make some preparations..."
Zhang Feng touched his chin and thought.
This is calculated based on his own speed. If it were an airship, it would take four or five hours to fly from Hobro to Danga. If it were walking, it would take ten days.
The fact that people from the Sirius Empire came shows that they still value the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce, but I don’t know to what extent.
But no matter what, it's good that people have come. From the scale, equipment, mental state, etc. of the people who have come, we can get a glimpse of the situation and make a simple estimate of the strength of the Sirius Empire.
Of course, this is definitely not very accurate, but it can give Zhang Feng an idea.
Otherwise, he always heard that the Sirius Empire was very powerful, but no one could tell exactly how powerful it was, so he could only imagine it, which made Zhang Feng too passive.
This is a risky move, but there is no other way. Since we regard the Sirius Empire as our opponent, we have to investigate the information of the Sirius Empire. Although this is a bit dangerous, we can't catch the wolf without sacrificing the child (shoes)!
At the same time, when Zhang Feng was preparing, somewhere a hundred miles away from the Kingdom of Danga, a large black army of orcs appeared in the sky. Their astonishing aura made the small animals on the ground tremble.
If Zhang Feng saw this, he would definitely be very surprised, because these were all Flying Wolf Riders, a full 10,000 of them! According to the news from other beastmen, if so many Flying Wolf Riders were all coming for the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce, it would mean that the Wolf Empire attached great importance to the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce!
I saw those burly wolf orcs sitting on the even burlier and more ferocious flying wolves. With such a huge body, they could fly freely in the sky, which gave people a strong visual impact.
Whether they were orcs or flying wolves, they all wore a matte black standard battle armor with golden patterns. The important parts of their bodies, including the face, were protected, making them look very majestic and mysterious.
In their hands, they held a standard spear made of the same material, with a cold light flashing on the tip of the spear, and a fierce aura. If they swooped down, no one would be able to catch this spear! So many flying wolf riders were quiet, and there was no other sound except the sound of the flying wolves flapping their wings. It was obvious that they were very disciplined.
At the front of these flying wolf riders, on the back of the largest flying wolf, sat a young male orc with white hair and no mask. He looked at the map in his hand and nodded.
"Well, we are on the right track this time. We should be there soon. Let's speed up and try to enter Danga before dark."
"yes."
The soldiers obeyed the order.
Under the sunlight, the golden patterns on their bodies seemed to glow, and the speed of the Flying Wolf increased significantly in an instant.
