Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1932 Distribution of the Orc Alliance

After reporting the results of the battle, Wei Qing also reported on the intelligence about the Orc Alliance that he had obtained from Mangu.

Judging from the current situation, the Orc Alliance does seem to have some brains.

At least the orcs knew very well that they fought to plunder food, and that plundering food was for survival.

When the opponent is clearly difficult to deal with and requires them to suffer heavy casualties, they no longer want to fight.

This situation is undoubtedly a good thing for the Great Zhou.

After that previous night raid, those orc tribes should have realized that they were a tough nut to crack. Normally, they shouldn't bother them again for no reason.

Under this premise, what Zhou Xu was most concerned about was undoubtedly what kind of high-end combat power was in this orc alliance.

According to Mangu, while the boarmen weren't considered weak among the orcs, they felt more like upper-middle class, or perhaps the bottom of the first tier.

Wei Qing had naturally inquired about this aspect of the intelligence.

“Barbarian Bone mentioned that the strongest orc king in the orc alliance is Baffa, the Lion King of the Lionmen tribe.”

"However, the orcs were not clear about the concept of realm. They only said that the Lion King Baffa was very powerful and that any orc who challenged him and tried to shake his position was easily torn to pieces by him."

The orcs' lack of understanding of clear realm divisions introduced some ambiguity into their intelligence.

However, according to Zhou Xu's line of reasoning, if the Barbarian Bone's strength reached the Vajra Realm before his death when the totem was activated, then the Lion King Baffa's strength would probably not be a simple peak Vajra Realm.

If he were merely at the peak of the Vajra Realm, it would probably not be enough for his rule to possess the overwhelming power described by the Barbarian Bone.

[The Realm of Horizontal and Vertical Transformation?]

If the Lion King Baffa's strength truly reaches the Transcendent Realm, then that would indeed be a troublesome matter.

In terms of strength, given his Nascent Soul Realm power, he wouldn't need to fear even if his opponent was at the Transcendent Realm.

But he can't stay in the new district forever.

Under this premise, he couldn't just go and kill the Lion King Baffa just because he might be a threat to their Great Zhou, could he?

Not to mention, he might not even be able to kill him.

No one who has cultivated to this level is simple. He is not so arrogant as to think that he is invincible at the same level. Being overconfident is not advisable.

Not to mention that the Lion King Baffa's Lion Clan was not in this area.

According to the description of the barbarians, they occupy the best resources, which can be understood as the neighboring countries being the easiest to attack and the most resource-rich.

The specific location is on the other side, which is actually quite far from here. It basically requires crossing an entire territory of the Orc Alliance to reach the Lion-man tribe's habitat.

Unless something major happens, orcs generally have a strong sense of territory, especially the lion-men, who will not easily leave their territory.

This makes the matter even more difficult.

He couldn't possibly start a war with the Orcish Alliance just to eliminate this threat ahead of time; the cost would be too high.

Furthermore, it would be even more impossible for him to venture alone into the territory of the Orcish Alliance to kill Baffa the Lion King; the risk was too high, and there was no guarantee he would succeed.

Given the current situation, the best solution is probably to transfer Yarvet to be stationed permanently in the new district.

Based on this, it would be best to confirm an alliance with the nearby elves and reach a mutual assistance agreement.

Even if war breaks out between the new district and the Orc Alliance, they can still request elven reinforcements. Otherwise, if the Orcs have to send troops from the rear, it will be too late to help them in their immediate predicament.

Meanwhile, the orc army, which had scattered like birds and beasts, took quite some time to regroup.

"Damn it, I saw one of those guys come out and kill the Barbarian Bone who activated the totem in an instant. You call that a good opportunity?!"

Inside the werewolf camp, Steel Fang almost roared as he questioned Black Ridge.

Even now, he still feels lingering fear when he recalls the moment when Mangu was instantly killed by the opponent; he almost jumped out at that time.

It's easy to imagine that if I had reacted even half a beat slower, I would have been one of the many who were instantly killed!
You must take responsibility for this!

"Responsible?"

Black Ridge's expression twisted for a moment.

"I made this clear from the beginning: it's only a possibility! Actions inherently carry risks, and we all reached a consensus before joining forces to carry out this operation. Now you're bringing this up with me?"

"So many of our werewolf riders died, who am I supposed to hold accountable?!"

The werewolf tribe also suffered significant losses this time. They gained nothing from the operation and lost a group of wolf riders. Blackridge was already annoyed, and Steel Fang's move directly put him in the line of fire.

Steel Tooth was taken aback when faced with Black Spine, who had changed his peacemaker attitude and turned fierce. However, he still held his own verbally.

"Fine, fine, you just wait! This isn't over yet!!"

After saying that, Steel Teeth left without looking back.

This wave of casualties within the tribe was significant, and with winter approaching, they needed to hurry to other places to gather food for the winter, otherwise they would likely have a hard time surviving the winter.

In contrast, the kobold chieftain remained silent, only exchanging a few words with Blackridge after Steelfang led the badger troops away before departing.

On the one hand, the kobolds and werewolves have a close relationship, and it's impossible for their friendship to be ruined by something that was already clearly stated.

On the other hand, it's because the kobold troops were positioned as the main force of the orc army in previous battles.

Just like regular infantry, they follow behind the vanguard. Only after the two sides have fully engaged in combat can they unleash their fighting power, and their casualties will begin to increase rapidly from that point on.

However, in the previous battle, Black Ridge stopped its losses in time and issued a retreat order, so that the two sides never really started fighting.

After the battle, the most devastating losses were suffered by the Boarmen, whose chieftain had died, followed by the Badgermen, who served as the vanguard.

On the werewolf side, considering the value of the wolf riders, the extent of their losses was actually similar to that of the badger tribe.

The kobolds suffered the fewest losses, with their main casualties concentrated in the close combat with the opposing skeleton army.

Under these circumstances, the kobold chieftain naturally had nothing to say.

Among them, the surviving boar-men never came back and left immediately.

Because they knew that with their chieftain dead and a large number of their people lost, the boar people no longer had the strength to challenge the werewolf or badger people.

Given the current situation, if they cause trouble at the werewolf camp, what kind of compensation can they expect to receive?

The worst-case scenario is that instead of receiving compensation, they are swallowed up by the werewolves.
