On the other hand, Li Jun and others who were ordered to find the source of the crocodile also began to return.

In the seven days before and after, the fleet finally arrived at the downstream exit of Daxia Lake.

At the outlet of a Daxia Lake, a river is always connected to it. However, the width of this river is far less than that of the summer water, and the speed of the water is not as good as the speed of incoming water. Therefore, the water of the Daxia Lake directly overflowed the shore, directly turning a large area downstream into a swamp.

In the swamp, not only are there a large number of crocodiles living, but also a giant beast with huge size and horns growing on its nose. Later, Li Juncai learned from Xia Qi that this giant beast was called rhino.

Crocodile and rhino often compete for territory. However, the rhino's skin is too thick and the crocodile cannot bite it. Relying on its own tonnage, the crocodile often cannot bear it if the rhino tramples.

The crocodile that had lost the battle would migrate to other places without any help, and a large part of them came to Daxia Lake.

After finding out the origin of the crocodile and the reason, he stopped staying for more and chose to return directly.

Time passed, four days later, Richard and others returned to the court. Facing the people who had just returned from the war, Xia Qi naturally couldn't help but reward him with merit.

As for how to reward, Xia Qi obviously thought it through these four days.

Richard made his first contribution during this trip, and Xia Qi named him the commander of the thousand men, and still commanded the wolf army and gave him a set of bronze armor.

However, the armor needs to be tailored for him, so he still needs to wait for a while.

Moreover, Richard took a flexible path. The bronze armor he was wearing now was a set of full-body armor that was full of materials. It would be fine if it didn't fit, but the weight seemed too heavy, which instead affected its strength. It should be replaced with a light armor.

The others also had other rewards, and even the ox was rewarded with five hundred stag of copper coins, which was enough to make them settle down in Daxia City.

In fact, until now, Xiao was confused. The prosperity of Daxia City was too far beyond his imagination.

After some rewards, Xia Qinian and others worked hard all the way and had already arranged their residence in Daxia City in advance, so that they could go down to have a meal and rest first.

Richard stayed and reported to Xia Qi the details of this expedition.

After hearing the details, Xia Qi frowned slightly and asked Richard: "It's autumn now. Can you clear the group of hyenas before winter comes?"

Daxia is located in the northern cold zone of this planet, and is a relatively northern area.

Therefore, sometimes when winter comes back early, sometimes snow will fall in the sky before it reaches winter. When winter comes, it will be really blocked by heavy snow.

Similarly, if this group of hyena people cannot be eliminated, it will always be a hidden danger. If you want to take action, you can only take advantage of the present. Otherwise, once winter comes, the mountains will be blocked with heavy snow, and it will be difficult for him to use troops again.

At this moment, Richard was undoubtedly in deep thought. After a while of thinking, he spoke slowly.

"From the general perspective, there are only two ways."

"The first method is to lure snakes out of the hole. Winter is about to begin. These hyenas should also need to stock up on food. We can set up ambush on the periphery, and then find some animals' corpses to lure them out."

"But, the group of hyena people had just slaughtered the barbarians of two tribes before, and they thought they were not short of food for the time being."

Xia Qi silently heard this. Wild beasts eat people, and people eat wild animals. It seems that no one can say anything. Naturally, he forbids the orc tribes who surrendered to him, and he can't care about the hyena people who did not surrender to him.

Going back to the point, Richard undoubtedly saw Xia Qi's attitude and continued: "So, if you lure them with animal corpses, they may not necessarily take the bait. After all, those hyenas are quite cunning."

There is no doubt that the success rate of the method of induced snakes out of the hole is slightly low, and it is too passive. Moreover, Xia Qi wanted to remove the hidden dangers of the hyena before winter, so the efficiency of using this trick was too slow.

Realizing this, Richard spoke decisively again and said, "In this way, he can only use heavy troops to the forests in the northern part of the mountains and forests!"

Xia Qi nodded in agreement with this answer.

"What do you think about the allocation of troops?"

Richard had a hyena after all

The experience of fighting is also a bit of experience. When facing Xia Qi's question at this moment, he heard him say slowly: "Hynas are rough and thick in skin. I think it would be good to use crossbow soldiers to deal with them."

"What else?"

After hesitating for a while, Richard finally said: "I think the werewolf warriors of my tribe are not suitable for this battle."

"oh?"

A playful light flashed in Xia Qi's eyes and asked, "What do you mean?"

Richard replied: "Werewolf warriors can indeed move flexibly in forest areas, but when they face Hyena people, they inevitably have a large number of frontal rushes. In the eyes of the general, the advantage of werewolf warriors should be guerrilla warfare and attack warfare. Fighting like this has killed their innate advantages. Therefore, they can adapt to the terrain, but they are not suitable for such opponents."

"I think you have the right person in your heart? Let's listen."

All the words have reached this point, and Richard has been relaxed. After hearing Xia Qi's words, he simply said: "I think the dog-headed people are more suitable. Replace them with long halberds as weapons, and serve them as the current platoon, and then supplemented with crossbow soldiers in the back row, which should be able to effectively target the Hyena people."

"But the kobold is not very honest."

As he spoke, Xia Qi's tone was a bit helpless. The focus of this battle was that he had to send troops to adapt to the mountainous terrain with flexible skills, and at the same time, he was better and stronger in physique, and could fight head-on with the Hyena people.

The heavy body of the Taurus obviously did not meet the standards, so it would be okay to let them handle it, but if they were allowed to wipe out the hyena people seriously, they would probably be tricked by the opponent with their speed.

The werewolf warriors under Li Ke are actually also alternatives. As a veteran driver of war strategy games, Xia Qi has what characteristics and what kind of battle it is to adapt to? How can he not see what kind of battle Xia Qi has?

The kowtowel is more suitable in all aspects, but as he said before, those kowtowels are not very honest for the time being. If possible, Xia Qi did not want to send them to fight in a short period of time, so as not to cause any accidents.

However, judging from this attitude, he seemed to have no choice. He didn't want to keep the group of hyenas in the mountains and forests in the northern part of the country for winter. The longer he stayed, the greater the threat. It would be better to remove the hidden dangers as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Xia Qi immediately breathed a long breath.

"In this way, wait for a while, I will give you two hundred crossbowmen and five hundred halberd soldiers, a total of seven hundred people, and you will be in full command. At the same time, just in case, let the ox be responsible for leading the way. However, if this trip to clear the hyena people is failing..."

"If it fails, I will be willing to apologize for death!"

Before Xia Qi could finish his words, Richard had directly issued a military order.

These seven hundred people have surpassed the hyena people on the opposite side in number, which is enough to show His Majesty's determination to clear the hyena people. Not to mention, those hyena people have just experienced a war and suffered heavy losses. If this fails, Richard feels that he has no shame to survive.

"Yeah, go down and prepare."

After Richard left, Xia Qi met Li Jun and Fu again.

"I will meet your Majesty at the end." Li Jun knelt on one knee and saluted Xia Qi.

The duck beside him was completely kneeling on the ground and performing a ritual of provoking his body.

"Let's go flat." Xia Qi looked at the two of them and said in a faint tone.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Tell me, what I saw along the way, the origin of those crocodiles, etc.."

"promise!"

Then, Li Jun began to talk about his experiences along the way. When Xia Qi heard the name of the boy beside him, he couldn't help but smile knowingly.

The boy brought back by Richard was called Xiao, and this boy was called Fu. He brought me birds back with you. But when he saw the boy's attribute panel, he immediately couldn't laugh.

Dragons enter the sea: During water wars, the combat effectiveness of soldiers under their command will be increased by 10% (the "order" shall prevail).

Xia Qi immediately became restless. If he could grow up, wouldn’t he be the best candidate for the Navy General?

Li Jun's words continued. When he heard that the crocodiles all came from a large swamp downstream of Daxia Lake, including not only thousands of crocodiles, but also a large number of rhinos, he immediately thought about it.

Whether it is a crocodile or a rhino, it is all good things!

The outer skin can be used to make armor, crocodile meat is said to be able to treat asthma, and rhinoceros horn is also a very rare medicinal material.

But the problem is that that place is really far from Daxia.

If a city is specially built there, it will be easily compromised by invading players without any danger and isolate without any help.

But we cannot ignore it. If we let it go, there will be a continuous stream of crocodiles coming towards Daxia, which will inevitably have a great impact on Daxia's fishing industry.

"Tell me, how can we control the crocodiles and prevent them from coming to Daxia?" Xia Qi looked at the two people below the stage.

Li Jun is a general under Xia Qi's command, so he should speak first. He thought for a moment and then said: "It's better to let the warships cruis at the outlet of Daxia Lake. Once a crocodile enters the lake, it can be directly encircled and suppressed."

After hearing this, Xia Qi thought for a moment and said, "This is not bad, but the number of warships in Daxia is not large at present. If all of them are used to encircle crocodiles, what should other places do?"

"This..." Li Junyu said.

Just when Li Jun was in a dilemma, Fu said, "We can use wood to insert it vertically into the outlet of Daxia Lake, leaving a gap in the middle, which can save materials and time, and will not cause the lake water level to rise."

He is worthy of being the future general of the navy of Daxia, and even came up with the solution to "cross the iron chain across the river".
