Golden terraces and villages on the mountainside.
The Infernal Warhorse trampled on the muddy ground, and under the horrified gaze of a group of goblins who had given up resistance, the blood seemed to gather as if it had life. When bright red blood spikes emerged from the pools of blood, the goblins' screams resounded throughout the village.
A secluded goblin village? This was the area occupied by the Goblin King. But even in the area occupied by the Goblin rebels, the neatly arranged fields were planned and organized by humans, and then planted by them themselves.
Reclamation and farming. Although goblins also know how to farm and raise livestock, judging from the neatly arranged terraces on the ridge, this place was not reclaimed by them. Generally, the land cultivated by goblins is more messy and disorderly.
If it is not a relic from before the destruction of the world, then there must have been humans stationed here, or the goblins may have captured and enslaved humans to work for them. In short, this seemingly peaceful goblin village is very likely to have a more cruel past than the goblin parade.
Blood, corpses, and those remnants that have not turned into dust indicate that this is a gathering place for monsters where a large proportion of them are real goblins.
As for these non-projected goblins, their physical desires are even stronger. Eating and reproduction will make them have evil thoughts towards all living things.
While raiding various goblin cities, Mu Hua unexpectedly discovered a goblin village with a pastoral style. Blood snakes condensed by blood were searching and killing goblins who were hiding or fleeing.
Mu Hua did not explore the situation here too much. There was no need to go into it deeply. If he found human remains or a human woman pregnant with a monster, it would only affect his mood.
Mu Hua originally wanted to develop some goblin laborers on the Abyss Island, but after raising them, no matter how he trained and abused them, procrastination and amnesia seemed to be deeply engraved in their genes.
If you let them do any work for a long time, they will be clever and develop some "convenient and labor-saving" ways to complete the work, and no amount of beating, killing or intimidation will be of any use.
Coupled with the goblins' adrenaline surging all the time, the goblins' original bodies would spray strange liquids everywhere. In Mu Hua's mind, the goblins on the Abyss Island were completely defined as "feed".
Even the original plan to train a goblin army was thrown into the courtyard. In essence, the goblin rebels were the product of that careless plan.
Physiology and psychology are closely related, and they deeply influence thinking patterns and behavior. Some things are really not so taken for granted.
Goblins can be an important part of the food chain in nature and can also enrich the vitality of wild monsters, but these things are ultimately unable to build up decent productivity. Fighting is probably the only behavioral pattern in which they are more obedient.
"Sir, Black Crow sent a message saying that they encountered some adventurer teams that died in goblin attacks on the way. Do you want the Adventurer's Guild to issue a notice prohibiting them from following?" Tina, who was collecting corpses and searching for dropped items and accompanying Mu Hua, asked.
The bird's-eye view area of the region occupied by the Goblin King is about 800,000 square kilometers. To put it simply, it is roughly equivalent to four or five Henan provinces.
Mu Hua has been sweeping here for two months. It can be said to be sweeping, but in this vast land, it is more appropriate to describe it as wandering.
Destroying cities and annihilating lands with their tyrannical strength, the Infernal Steed and the Black Crow Armor spread panic among the goblins. However, goblins are not wild beasts. Faced with irresistible attacks, many goblins will hide in hidden caves and wait for an opportunity to strike.
It is easy to find goblin gathering places such as cities and strongholds in the Goblin Kingdom, but searching the world for those deliberately hidden underground cave entrances is time-consuming and laborious, and basically cannot be achieved in a short time.
This is also the fundamental reason why Mu Hua did not think of quickly conquering the Goblin Kingdom.
But Mu Hua and Black Crow swept through the goblin gathering places. They had no intention of occupying them, but some adventurers could not help but develop a desire to possess the fortifications and city buildings that could be renovated and reused after the war.
They defended the city, monsters hid in the wilderness, and the Goblin Kingdom was indeed more chaotic and dangerous, but adventurers were a profession that grew and profited in chaos and danger.
Some adventurers followed Mu Hua and his group to take advantage of the situation, and even the brigade was eager to expand its sphere of influence.
And the dungeons are not just caves that hide a dozen or twenty monsters. Some dungeons even have underground cities where goblins can live and reproduce.
The war between humans and demons in the courtyard cannot be settled by simply launching a nuclear bomb to safely define the occupied area. It must inevitably go through repeated clearing and searching of the monsters.
Mu Hua and his group were sweeping everywhere, and the monsters led by the Goblin King had already been informed of the invasion of a powerful enemy.
The goblins can hide and avoid the attack, and there are some adventurers following behind who want to take advantage.
As a result, the goblins, who are never lacking in hunting wisdom, will inevitably wait for opportunities to launch surprise attacks on adventurers who have invaded their territory but have not yet established a foothold.
Adventurers and goblins are always calculating against each other and trying to take each other's life.
Mu Hua and Black Crow were just a group of disorderly roaming thugs, but their raids brought more than just goblin casualties.
"Don't worry about it. We don't have the ability to support them right now. There are probably a few brigades here that are fueling the flames."
"We don't care if there are still people spreading rumors that we are disrupting stability. If we impose some more restrictions on them, I think we will be able to lead an expedition to fight against them." Mu Hua frowned as he looked at a group of skeleton undead approaching this side in the distance.
For the people with normal cognition, governance cannot be achieved by just some pretense or encouragement, let alone for those adventurers who risk their lives on the edge of a knife.
At this stage, the adventurers in the Kanins Courtyard are generally unruly. Driven by certain interests, they will indeed rely on some stronger forces.
But for the time being, this kind of dependence is basically no different from employment. They will be obedient if there are benefits, and will break up if there are no benefits. There is no stability or belonging to speak of, and don't expect to use the trick of pretending to be a big shot on them.
Although it is said to be a bargain, those adventurers who invade the area occupied by the Goblin King are aware of the risks involved, so they go to the Fire and Disaster to be annihilated, and even Cuiyu Cangting will use the greed aroused by Mu Hua to recruit and integrate those adventurers who are ready to make a move.
It is no exaggeration to say that if Mu Hua raises his arm and calls for action, many adventurers will join his army and be willing to cooperate with him in conquering the Goblin Kingdom.
But the premise of all this is that Mu Hua must ensure that they make a profit, allocate territories and strongholds to them, and even guarantee their logistics to a certain extent, as well as provide them with assistance and support when the strongholds where they are stationed are counterattacked by monsters.
Invasion is not "rising in rebellion", invasion requires capital, and for the time being Mu Hua does not have the time to drag a group of subordinates who are not loyal to capture cities.
At this stage, he was unable to absorb those adventurers, and there was nothing he could do except let them integrate themselves or have them recruited and dispatched by the major brigades.
All he had to do now was to steadily strengthen his own original strength, and when he was ready to formally launch an invasion and expel the monster forces, he would suppress and dispatch the major adventurous forces.
At that time, I think the adventurer forces had invested more in this courtyard and had more concerns, so they would not just turn the table over and leave at every turn.
Teams of Undead regiments gathered towards where Mu Hua and Tina were. These were Undead regiments that had completed the clearing mission in the human-occupied areas.
After several months of looting, Mu Hua has almost collected all the suspended stones he needs. Gathering his army, he is ready to attack the Goblin King City.
When the Sky City takes off, the war plan to concentrate all forces to blockade the Bloody Hills should also be launched.
Clean up the front half of the courtyard, let all parties fight for power in the first half, try to infiltrate the Bloody Hills on the one hand, and train the human forces in the courtyard on the other hand. This is the strategy that Mu Hua is going to launch against the Kanins Courtyard in the next stage.
Looking at the reorganized Undead regiments of various ranks from afar, Mu Hua frowned and sighed: I hope the monsters over at the Bloody Hills won't be too troublesome. At the same time, I also hope that the human forces won't let him resort to killing too many monsters.
Although his development in recent years seemed chaotic, he also tried his best to perfect each link of the situation, including military strength, combat effectiveness, backup, connections, public opinion, retreat and so on.
There's nothing much to say about the monsters, just fight to the death.
In the Kanes Courtyard, he allowed some people to pretend to obey him but he would never allow anyone to oppose him. Even if the royal power entered, he would still have a fight with the other party.
Here, he also invested a lot. (End of this chapter)
