GOR Chapter 588 "Home"
"Du Wei is telling me his bottom line." Prince Son chuckled as he extinguished the candle on the table and walked out of the study room with his hands behind his back.
Early in the morning, the long awaited sunlight finally shines down. The days of continuous snowy weather seemed to have finally come to an end. Seeing the rare sunlight, one's mood couldn't help but brighten up a bit.
"Whether it's the friction in the Northwest Tulip Family's territory or the deliberate use of the prairie to pressure me, it's all a 'false' front. The only real power is in the capital, right beside me." Prince Son whispered: "From top to bottom, the entire Tulip Family is entrusted to Du Wei. If you want to wipe out the Tulip Family, then the most direct and effective way is to get rid of Du Wei first. But Du Wei deliberately left himself in the capital, right under my nose. This is his' resistance ', his' struggle '. "
"But … … The Duke of the Tulip Family is one of the top powerhouses in the continent. Even if I want to get rid of him, it won't be easy. " Inside the study room, the red figure didn't follow Prince Son out. Instead, it quietly stood in the shadows of the study room.
"The strong … … are also human." Prince Son shook his head: "Even if a person is extremely strong, it's impossible for them to have no flaws. No matter how strong an individual is, it's impossible for them to compete with the entire country. At most … … they can only become a destroyer. Moreover … … The strong are also human. As humans, they have family and friends. Even if Du Wei is strong, do you think the tens of thousands of people around him are all strong? If I pick up the butcher's knife, even if I can't kill Du Wei, do you think I can't kill his family and subordinates? Humph … … "
With his hands behind his back, Prince Son suddenly coughed twice and slightly frowned. Feeling a faint pain in his chest, he suddenly remembered that he forgot to take the medicine last night.
"He's telling me … that he, Du Wei, doesn't want to rebel. He's only protecting himself by showing off his forces in the northwest against the imperial army. On one hand, he's showing off his power to make me wary. On the other hand, he's purposely placing all his assets in the imperial capital, right beside me … This is to reassure me. " Shen gave a soft smile. Although there was still a trace of pain on his face, there was a trace of spirit within his eyes. "Looking at the entire empire, the chess player … … only Du Wei is worthy of playing chess with me."

"Say, when do you think those monsters are going to attack?"
On the north wall of the main fortress of the Kaspersky Defense Line, Reuenthal, the son of General Rostock, was staring at the north.
Beside him, there was a young general wearing a military uniform with a soft leather jacket. In his hand was a broadsword of the Knight. Sitting on the wall, he was gently wiping the blade. This young officer has a pair of keen eyes. On his chest, there was a medal. It was none other than General Milo who made the first contribution in this war.
As young generals of the Storm Corps, Milo and Reuenthal had always had a good relationship. Today, the two of them were on duty to patrol the city wall. Looking at the huge enemy camp in the north, they were reminded of the peaceful confrontation between the two sides in the coming winter. They could not help but have some wild guesses.
"Maybe these guys are going to hibernate." Milo coldly said: "They all look like wild beasts. Maybe when the weather turns cold, they will hide and sleep."
This saying is quite popular in the Tempest Legion. Many human officers would call these monsters' wild beasts' when talking about them.
In the past winter, the weather in the north was not as cold as the south. This kind of warm winter season is rare.
In some particularly hot weather, standing in the sun while wearing a leather jacket would make people sweat all over.
Originally, the Eastern Fortress had prepared a defense plan for the winter. Because the defense system of the Eastern Fortress relied on the river, in order to prevent the enemy from crossing the river during the winter when the river froze, the front line of the war zone had already sent troops out of the fortress to guard the river. They had also mobilized enough labor to prepare to break the ice at any time. But all this was in vain.
Throughout the winter, there was not even a single snowfall in the north.
The sinners also did not launch a large-scale attack. In the first two months, they sent a few scattered teams to feign attacks. But obviously, the sinners did not put in much effort. As long as the humans put up a little resistance, the sinners would retreat.
Later on, even these feints were gone. There was even a situation where both sides were at peace for more than ten days.
What were the sinners doing?
If the answer was given, both Reuenthal and Milo would probably stare at it.
The answer was very strange:
Cutting trees!

The Elf Tribe was the last tribe to arrive at the front line. But after the arrival of the Elf King, although Copper Tiger and Rock of the Orc Tribe were dissatisfied with Luoxue's strength and prestige, they could not disobey Luoxue's orders. After all, in the previous agreement between the tribes, Luoxue was still their commander. Even though they were dissatisfied, Luoxue's strength was there. In addition, Domines of the Wolf Tribe firmly supported Luoxue. Moreover, although the continuous attacks on the Kaspersky Fortress were tragic, they did not achieve any actual results.
Although the two of them were unwilling to listen to Luoxue's orders, they knew that the Orcs were far inferior to the Elves in terms of intelligence. They had to be convinced by Luoxue's wisdom.
In the end, Luoxue successfully took over the command. After a series of orders, the attacks on the humans gradually slowed down. Tens of thousands of Orcs were still left at the front line to maintain pressure on the human defense line. More Orcs were transferred back from the front line in batches.
Luoxue's strategy was very simple: strengthen the control of the occupied area as soon as possible.
Thus, in a few months, large batches of Orc warriors changed from warriors to farmers, to craftsmen, and to lumberjacks.
With the help of the dwarves, simple settlements were built on the ground south of the Frozen Forest and north of the human defense line. On the foundation of the ruins of the towns abandoned by the humans, simple settlements were built. These settlements were the "immigrant residential areas" that Luoxue had envisioned.
After the war began, the humans deliberately gave up a large area of land north of the Kaspersky Fortress. In the eyes of the humans, this land was a barren and barren place. In the past, this area did not produce much food. Most of the local residents also relied on underground trade in the Frozen Forest for a living.
However, after the war began, more than ten towns were abandoned and later turned into ruins. Now, Luoxue's plan was very simple: use these ruins and rebuild a town that belonged to the Orcs!
"We're not going to stay here for a while and then go back! From now on, we'll build this place as our home! Houses, towns, roads, city walls … "
Under Luoxue's orders, the Orcs gathered their energy and began to build their own homes.
The Orcs were naturally strong and made excellent laborers. Coupled with the technical assistance of the Dwarves, in just a few months, a few crude and large towns had become quite large.
At the same time, the Orcs began to wantonly cut down the Frozen Forest.
The Frozen Forest covered a vast area. In terms of area, it covered about two and a half provinces of the Empire. Luoxue's strategy was also very simple: cut down the forest for farmland!
Large tracts of forest were cut down, and the wood was transported to build towns. The empty land was burned and turned into farmland.
The land here was barren and barren by human standards, but it was much more fertile than the place where the sinners used to live.
Coincidentally, this winter's weather was strangely warm, so the Orcs began to farm with all their might.
In the coming spring, when the flowers bloomed and they harvested food and had sufficient capital, it would be time for the sinners to launch their attack!
Luoxue took a long-term path: first establish a firm foothold, then slowly plan step by step.
"What do you mean by true occupation? It's not called 'occupation' just because our warriors stand on this land with swords! Once we build our own town on this piece of land, grow our own food, and have our own family members living in the houses … Only then can this truly be considered our own land! "
Luoxue explained to the Orcs. Although Orcs were naturally simple-minded, this simple logic still convinced most of them.
As the second month of the 966th year of the Empire slowly passed by, the wind was getting warmer by the day. After experiencing winter, many of the orcs had begun to shed their fur. The giant wolves of the werewolf tribe had also developed a thick layer of fat. The warriors had gone through a winter's rest.
The forests that had been cut down had been turned into lumber, countless siege weapons, houses for the Beastmen to live in, strongholds, and offensive lines.
It could be said that if the "air raid" launched by the humans on that late night last year happened today, then even if the humans had ground troops to attack, it would probably be very difficult to completely drive the Orcs back into Frozen Forest in one battle!
This was because in the northern lands, there were strongholds, fortresses, and towns that belonged to the beastmen. They were like nails that were firmly nailed into the land, leaving a deep imprint on the land!
At the end of February, from the distant north, groups of Orcs, Elves, Dwarves, and other sinners came to the Roland Continent. This time, not all of them were warriors.
Instead, they were large groups of "sinners" who had migrated from the sinful land that had been exiled for tens of thousands of years!
There were the old and the weak, women and children, and young and strong people!
From this moment on, the sinners could be considered to have completed the first step of their return. At the same time, in the north, they built a home that belonged to them — or rather, a bridgehead to attack the human world!
"This will be a long process. Don't expect to end this Holy War in three to five years." Luo Xue said to all the leaders of the Orcs, Elves, and Dwarves, "Our strategy is to nibble away! Swallow it bit by bit, eat it bit by bit, bite it bit by bit! But we must ensure that every bit of land we bite off will quickly become our territory. If we want this place to become our home, we must first take deep roots here. "

A strong horse galloped on the road leading to the north.
On the road leading to the north of the Empire, one could see troops, provisions, and supplies being transferred to the north at all times. There were also groups of conscripted civilian workers who began to move out to repair the road just after the end of winter in preparation for the future war.
One man and one horse went all the way to the north and did not know how many such scenes they saw. Muse, who was lying on the horse, felt that the closer they got to the north, the more deeply he felt the aura of war. This was something he had never experienced in the Northwest or the Imperial Capital.
After escaping from the marriage, Muse knew that he could not return to the Northwest. If he returned to the Northwest, he would most likely be captured by his sister.
Therefore, Muse's choice was the North.
General Longbottom was currently at the northern front. It was said that he was appointed by Du Wei to command the mercenaries gathered from the continent. Now that Muse had run away from home and was without any relatives, he could not return to the Northwest. So, after thinking about it, he could only run to the North and seek refuge with that fatty Longbottom.
The horse was a fine prairie horse and Muse's riding skills had greatly improved in the past few years in the Northwest. Although Madam Lister sent out many family guards to Knight to look for Muse, the current Muse was no longer the tomboy who only knew how to contradict Du Wei.
After being under Ruo Lin for so long, Muse had learned a lot of military style. At the very least, it was not difficult for Muse to deliberately set up a few disguises on the road to lead the pursuers away.
Cleverly directing the pursuers' attention to the Northwest, Muse rode alone on a horse and did not even bring a bag. She only wore a long sword on the horse and entered the northern war zone!
