There is a potential in nature, a rule.

That is, if you want to gain ownership of a certain territory, you must defend it under the attack of other races. Only in this way will other races recognize your ownership of this land, otherwise they may attack you again at any time. In other words, if the ogres want other races to recognize their ownership of the new territory, they must repel human attacks head-on and stabilize the rule of this land with blood and death, otherwise the battle for this territory will last for a considerable period of time.

There are many borderless lands in the wilderness.

If it is a small-scale ethnic group, basically no one will care about it, but once it is a large-scale ethnic group, it will destroy the original balance.

Humans will not allow large-scale ogre tribes near the road, unless they are afraid of being beaten, and take the initiative to avoid this territory, clear out monsters in other areas, and open up another road. Most of the roads between cities are not gathered, because the large groups that originally occupied the road have been cleaned up by humans from generation to generation. This is how the trade routes are bloodied in the wilderness. Wild creatures will remember a lesson, even if they migrate, they will avoid the main roads.

Ogres occupying this place is a challenge.

They want to swear ownership of this land to other races, and nothing can demonstrate force better than defeating humans.

After all, this is a wilderness, not a well-cultivated field. If humans fail once, they will basically not devote themselves to the battle to expel them, because they do not have the benefit of fighting, at most they will establish a defense line on the border. If those lands that have cultivated good fields for generations, then the battle will become endless. Human beings' determination to protect the land cultivation is beyond any race.

This has happened many times.

Luoye City was established by half-elves expelled ogres. They fought for hundreds of years to protect this land and dealt with the attacks of ogres, orcs, and mountain dwarves. Until all nearby races had no choice but to force other races to recognize the half-elves' rule over hundreds of kilometers near Luoye City. Only when other races dare not provoke you again can you truly own this land and then you can declare your ownership of it to other races.

Otherwise, they will only laugh at you ruthlessly and launch an attack on your territory when you are weak or unattentional.

Although the villages they built by humans who survived in wilderness, they could only be said to live in the wilderness, and could not be said to be the owner of this land in the wilderness.

It is impossible to draw a territory in this world without blood.

……………………

Sauron saw the battle flag of the ogre tribe the next afternoon.

In fact, it should not be said to be a battle flag, it is just something built with a circle of stones, with a wooden pole erected in the middle, with humanoid bones inserted on it.

This is a sign.

It represents the territory of ogres from here. They have the right to hunt in this territory. When other races enter it, they invade their territory. It is like before Sauron enters the scope of White Horse City, he will see a huge stone signpost with the words White Horse City engraved on it and the emblem of a war horse.

"It looks like an ogre tribe." Yas's expression was very serious.

Only the tribes will have this kind of enclosure behavior, and use some signs to prove their ownership of the land. This is a bit like a war letter to other races. You either come back or you must recognize their dominance over the territory. From now on, this land belongs to them, and if you enter it, they have the right to deal with you. In other words, in their understanding, the human caravans passing through the territory are all delivered to their doors.

Because this is their territory.

The same is true for dragons before establishing their nests. They will leave their own scent within the territory, and other creatures dare not approach them at will.

"Cut it off!"

A person who was obviously an officer in White Horse City shouted in a low voice. Although White Horse City does not have the strength to expand into a dangerous wilderness, it cannot accept the ogre's behavior of occupying land as king. If it is in other places, it does not matter, but being near White Horse City is equivalent to touching their reverse scales. It is not enough to open up the wilderness, but also to have farmed land and warriors who can protect civilians. Otherwise, the random expansion of the territory will mean that you will repel a wave of enemies and then the population will decrease for various reasons.

It took hundreds of years for Baima City to expand from dozens of kilometers of territory to hundreds of kilometers now.

Even so, monsters are still attacking on the edge of Baima City. There are still forests, mountains, lakes, etc. within the territory, and there are still creatures such as zombies and other creatures, from time to time, attacking established villages. As long as it is impossible to cultivate fertile fields and cultivate and live, creatures in the wilderness can always reproduce. If you kill this group, you will be born, and if you expel this group, other things will be moved. It will take at least twenty years for humans to cultivate a qualified warrior. Ordinary civilians have no advantage against monsters.

Bang!

The heavy flagpole fell to the ground, and the troops of White Horse City continued to advance.

Since the ogre tribe is enclosing land here, it will inevitably establish a large-scale gathering place for the tribe.

In other words, it is a fortress.

The ogre tribe is different from the wandering ogres. They have at least hundreds of people. They don’t seem to be small in number, but they are all first-class warriors. And the ogre tribe has its own heritage, they know how to forge weapons, make leather armor, tame wild beasts, and capture slaves on a large scale. Ogres will capture a large number of kobolds and goblins as their slaves, and at the same time mine, forge, serve, and serve them as reserved food.

An ogre tribe with a scale of 500 people must occupy at least 50 kilometers of land to ensure sufficient food.

Because their staple food is meat.

The adventurers and the scouts of the army were all scattered, and large-scale groups would not wander around, and they would definitely build a gathering place.

It is best to solve it before they are completed, otherwise what Baima City has to face is a siege!

All the adventurers' expressions became much more serious. The original team of two people expanded to five people. Soren cooperated with three other adventurers to form a five-person team to explore in the plains. Ogres are very dangerous creatures. Their skin is extremely tough, equivalent to ordinary leather armor, and they have thick fat on their bodies. They cannot hurt their internal organs even if they shoot on the crossbow. You cannot fight head-on when dealing with ogres. It is best if someone cooperates to fight, consume their physical strength first and then find a chance to kill it.

The deeper you go inside, the more traces of ogre activity will be.

When Sauron and others saw the traces of the ogre, everything in front of them had already made their expressions stiff.

It was a camp built on the hillside, most of which had been completed. At the foot of the mountain, you could see tall ogres cutting logs. The amazingly powerful ogre warriors carried hundreds of pounds of logs up the mountain alone, and then nailed them into the ground with the cooperation of other ogres. The group of ogres were completely breaking the mountain and cracking stones. Groups of kowtow slaves were cleaning up the stones under the whip, and traces of the furnace were also seen in the distance, which was kowtowts forging weapons for them.

Ogres do not need exquisite equipment, they only need sufficient iron weapons, and they will immediately become terrifying threats!

"Look!"

Yas took out the monocular lens and looked at it, and said with an ugly face: "Look at the alert ogre warrior over there."

Soren looked at it and his expression was not good at first glance, because he saw the ogre warrior wearing armor, holding a mace of one or two hundred pounds in his hand, and heavy armor on his shoulders and chest. It was not the kind of refined armor made by humans. It looked more like something that some third-rate blacksmiths cast directly after smelting iron ore. A shoulder brace weighed twenty or thirty pounds, which ordinary people could not afford to wear, but this weight was very easy for ogres.

"This is definitely the work of a two-headed ogre wizard!"

Sauron put down his monocular lens and said in a deep voice: "Ordinary ogres do not have that high wisdom. It would be good if they didn't eat the captives. Only ogres who advanced to become wizards know how to rule and domesticate."

The copycat has been completed most of the time.

The construction of ogres as labor force is very fast. Although the whole village looks a bit simple, it is very solid and solid, full of a primitive and rough atmosphere. There are wooden poles on the mountain wall, with corpses of goblins, bonfires, lizardmen and werewolves inserted. Sauron almost saw most of the intelligent creatures in the wilderness. They were captured in the village as slaves and worked hard under cruel rule. A little slower, the ogres would smirk and wave their whip. Often, half of their lives were blooming at once, and then they were thrown into a huge cage by other ogres.

There are food stored inside.

Near the edge, there was an extremely huge beast cage, which seemed to be locked in it.

There are many ogres!

There are four or five hundred ogres just in front of you. Conservatively, there are nearly eight hundred ogres here. This is a large group of ogres, which may have been passed down for hundreds of years, otherwise there would not be so many. Ogres are extremely exclusive races. If it weren't for the ogres born in the tribe, the ogres in other wildernesses might have become their food.

Ogres from some different tribes are enemies and often kill each other when they encounter them!
