Back to Yao Mountain, Ji Hao spent a small half a day to settle Aardwolf Clan people down.
Aardwolf Clan was originally an appendage clan of a large clan near Yao Mountain territory. Due to the special inherited power of this clan, the powers cultivated by them were extremely compatible with the earth, and they were especially good at digging mines.
For many years, Aardwolf Clan had been managing mines for their suzerain clan, and had made great contributions to the prosperity of their suzerain clan. However, a thousand years ago, a few extremely greedy and harsh clan leaders emerged from their suzerain clan. Therefore, the life of Aardwolf Clan had been deteriorating day by day. They were almost suffocated, and a large number of their clansmen died in those dangerous mines.
Since they couldn't survive anymore, the ancestors of Aardwolf Clan fled with their clansmen.
In any clan, the fleeing of an appendage clan was intolerable. Aardwolf Clan's elite warriors were all slaughtered by warriors sent by their suzerain clan, and the elite warriors of Aardwolf Clan were all killed. They were hunted by their enemies for tens of years, and all their inheritances were almost cut off.
Because they had offended their suzerain clan, Aardwolf Clan's people dared not to stay in one place for a long time, in case that their suzerain clan would send out warriors to kill them. Therefore, they simply wandered around and became a nomadic clan.
The bearded man's name was Iron Wolf. He was the leader of Aardwolf Clan, and also the only Magus King in the recent thousand years. He was quite talented in cultivation, but he was straightforward and straightforward. To put it bluntly, he was just a rough man who only knew how to fight and kill.
Under Iron Wolf's lead, the poor life of Aardwolf Clan became more and more difficult. Often, they didn't have more than three days' worth of food stored in their clan. In for a penny, in for a pound. Relying on his tyrannical strength, Tie Lang led his clansmen to become a professional robber. Wherever they went, they would rob. Relying on robbing was pretty good, and it was much better than working hard to hunt and farm.
However, this time, they bumped into Ji Hao, who was a giant iron board. As a Magus King, he was defeated by a Senior Magus, and the great Aardwolf Clan became Yao Mountain territory's people.
Aardwolf Clan people had been robbing for a long time, and they had become bandits. From the old to the young, from the men to the women, not a single one of them was easy to deal with. If these fellows were to gather together, they would definitely stir up trouble. Don't expect them to live a peaceful life of farming and labor.
Therefore, Ji Hao simply selected all young and strong warriors of the Aardwolf Clan and incorporated them into the slave army led by Zhamu. All of them were scattered and integrated into the army. Facing the dark-kind slave soldiers who were much stronger than them, they couldn't do anything.
Right in front of Tie Lang, Ji Hao gave a strict order to Zhamu — If any Aardwolf Clan's clansmen dared to disobey his order in the army, he would kill every single one of them. Also, he would directly investigate the family members of these Aardwolf Clan's clansmen, and behead all of these Aardwolf Clan's clansmen in public.
The strict military law scared these guys of the Aardwolf Tribe. All of them behaved themselves, and no one dared to make trouble.
Hundreds of thousands of elderly, weak, women and children of the Aardwolf Clan were scattered by Ji Hao, and were placed in over a hundred villages according to family units. These elderly and weak people of the Aardwolf Clan didn't have much fighting power. Facing hundreds of Senior Magi and thousands of elite warriors from each village, they had no other choice but to farm and work.
After that, Ji Hao gave these new clansmen a great amount of benefits.
Food, meat, salt, all these basic necessities of life were provided to them by Ji Hao. Sturdy houses were built for them, which could protect them from the wind and the rain. Every single one of them was given a newly made thick fur coat, and all kinds of utensils such as pots and pans were provided.
With a stick in one hand and a fruit in the other, the hundreds of thousands of Aardwolf Clan people were all digested by Ji Hao's territory without making even the slightest sound.
In the meeting hall built inside the mountainside, a magic sandbox had been sparkling on the thick and heavy table made of raw stone, showing the map of the surrounding area of Yao Mountain. Centering on Yao Mountain, all mountains and rivers tens of thousands of miles in radius had been marked with different sized colored blocks.
Tie Lang wore a comfortable cotton battle dress and a set of high-quality heavy armor. He looked like a fierce tiger, and both his spiritual power and spirit power had gone through a thorough change. He held a black stone dagger and fiercely poked a towering mountain three-thousand miles away from the main peak of Yao Mountain.
This towering mountain immediately turned glowing-red, as eye-catching as blood.
"Master, this is Black Mouse Clan. Those bloody things are good at raising copper-teeth ghost rats. Those things aren't huge, but they can run even faster than ghosts. They're especially good at digging holes and mining. They're quite fat!"
Clicking his tongue, Tie Lang continued cursing, "They don't have too many people, only seventy to eighty thousand. But these people are good at mining mines, and are good at forging. They have a city built entirely from metal, with a great defensive power. Their leader is a Magus King. I and my clansmen fought for a whole day and night. Thousands of our people died, but we still failed to take the Black Mouse Clan down."
"Good at mining mines? Good at forging? "Ji Hao's eyes shone as he rubbed his chin and looked at where Tie Lang was pointing.
Ji Hao didn't think that a clan like Aardwolf Clan, which had hundreds of thousands of people, would actually exist in his territory. Therefore, after taking over the Aardwolf Clan and making arrangements for all its people, he came to Tie Lang and asked him about the situation.
As a result, Ji Hao was startled by what Tie Lang said.
Within the area ten-thousand miles around Yao Mountain, over thirty different sized clans were living there. The Black Mouse Clan, which had the smallest population, only had tens of thousands of people, while the largest one had over a million people. The total population of over thirty clans was over ten-million.
Different from the Aardwolf Tribe that roamed around, these tribes all had stable camps. Moreover, their origins were complicated, and many of them even had the blood of other tribes mixed in. Therefore, each tribe had its own unique ability to settle down and survive.
Take Black Mouse Clan for example. They didn't have a large population, but their armaments were excellent. Their leader was also a Magus King, and they had a city built entirely from metal, guarding a strategic area. Therefore, they had been living quite comfortably.
"Before, no one cared about them. They lived their lives however they wanted, that was their freedom."
Ji Hao looked at the locations of different sized clans marked on the magic sandbox and said in a cold voice, "But since the human emperor conferred me as Earl Yao, this territory is now my personal territory. They have to follow me! Especially clans like Black Mouse Clan, which have their own special skills, they have to follow me. "
This was a fat piece of meat placed right in front of Ji Hao's door, and there was no reason for Ji Hao to let it go.
Before, Ji Hao was busy building the city, settling his clansmen down and teaching his disciples. Therefore, he didn't even have the time to send people to survey the surrounding area.
Now, with Tie Lang, a local person who had sent himself to Ji Hao's door as a guide, these clans had to follow him no matter whether they wanted to or not. The weak were prey to the strong. Large clans swallowed small clans, Ji Hao had seen this kind of thing too many times in Southern Wasteland!
"It's snowing and stormy, it's not convenient to mobilize the army. This winter, everyone can focus on training. "
Ji Hao punched on the stone table and said, "In the spring, I will lead the army myself and move all these clans to Yao Mountain!"
