This kind of feat could not be settled in a short while, Du You left the badge here, took a spare badge, and then went back to his residence to rest.

Du You himself didn't choose to live in the aristocratic residential area. He knew that the children of the aristocrats were not pleasing to his eyes.

Flying back this way, although he had not experienced any battle, Du You was still very tired. It's not really physical exhaustion, but heart exhaustion. After all, all the way back from the enemy area, this invisible pressure is not small.

In fact, if there are several enemy fights on the road, there may not be so much pressure.

On the other side, the City Lord's Mansion is very noisy now. The city lord and officials at all levels, including those nobles, all gathered here. Except for Siloha who has been in the oasis and has not returned, all the other people who can name it have gathered.

"This time, we succeeded in capturing the oasis on the opposite side. Although there was no way to occupy it, the Sandmen were still slaughtered by them. In the next ten years, the Sandmen will not be able to gather too much power."

Everyone is in high spirits, after all, preparing for a war with the sand people every year is really exhausting.

"Why don't you destroy the oasis on the opposite side? If it weren't for that oasis, it would be impossible for the sandmen to gather so many. As long as the oasis is still there, the sandmen will go there to survive sooner or later," a nobleman said. .

The noble representative glanced at him coldly, and another person next to him immediately said: "Don't talk nonsense, that oasis cannot be destroyed. The oasis is the wind and sand barrier of our White Rock City. If there is no oasis, the wind and sand will continue. Erosion is very likely to turn our White Rock City, including the imperial border behind it, into a desert."

The nobleman knew that he had said the wrong thing and closed his mouth, but his eyes were still filled with dissatisfaction.

The noble representative also said: "The real use of White Rock City is not to guard against the Quicksand Empire. The real use of our place is to train soldiers. As long as the Quicksand Empire does not fully engage us in war, this kind of petty fight is nothing. If there is no oasis, who do we find to train soldiers."

At this time, many people who didn't know White Rock City originally understood the role of White Rock City.

The city lord coughed, and then continued: "Now, we have two plans, let's discuss them."

After a pause, the lord continued: "The first plan is that we are going to build a small castle on the oasis side, and some defensive measures. On the one hand, it is to prevent the sandmen from coming back, and on the other hand, to exercise the soldiers. This castle I think the defense system can be maintained for at least five years."

"If this plan is successful, the time for the Sands to form a large-scale offensive force may continue to be delayed. Maybe not ten years, but fifteen years, or even longer."

Although they have been training soldiers with Sandmen, it is not appropriate for Sandmen to gather too many at a time. This not only fails to achieve the effect of training soldiers, but it will also cause them heavy losses.

Once the conflict that erupts is too big and there are too many sand people, then there will be some powerful existences among the sand people.

If it weren't for the fact that the Sandmen gathered too hastily this time, even Tier 3 would have appeared a lot, and it was not certain whether Tier 4 would exist. It would be really dangerous to block the Sandmen like that.

If one is not careful, even White Rock City will encounter the threat of breaking the city. As a city lord, the greatest significance of existence is actually to prevent too many sand people from gathering. Therefore, it is necessary to go out to clean up the sand people every year.

But even so, every winter, a large number of sand people will still gather and attack them.

"This question is a matter for your military and has nothing to do with us. I just want to know whether this plan will affect the interests of our nobles." The noble representative said.

The city lord shook his head: "Of course not. Although some things are not so good, there are still people who help the nobles, and they can be stationed to enter the oasis defense."

"It's a matter of time."

"This is a rotation system. As for whether their subordinates want to stay there, whether they want to rotate or transfer back, it is up to you to decide. But there are indicators for the quota, and they cannot all be replaced by the nobles."

It's true that the nobles' subordinates are powerful, but there is a problem, that is, none of their subordinates obey orders very much. Heads-up is okay, a certain scale of war, then forget it.

"In this case, we have no problem." The nobles whispered for a while, and the noble representative finally agreed.

Seeing them like this, the city owner was also relieved. The most worrying thing is that these nobles are making trouble. If it is the military side, even if you say it by yourself, this is also a trouble.

"Then for the second plan, the griffins have been hatched normally. According to that material, we can domesticate these griffins. After a few years, we will have our own griffon riders to use.

Everyone's eyes shone brightly, Griffin Rider, this is considered to be a very noble profession in the empire.

It's just that their place is too remote, and there have been no training methods in this area. Before getting the griffon domestication method, only then dared to establish the Griffon Knight Army.

Now that the training manual proves to be useful ~ www.novelhall.com ~ everyone is very excited. The civilians became Griffin Riders, and their status would rise. And the nobles became the Griffin Riders, which is also a very face-to-face thing. Many nobles, but they value face more than anything else, which is of course a good thing.

"There are also training methods for sand snakes and sand sculptures. Although sand sculptures do not have griffons suitable for our knights, they are more numerous and can be used as consumables. Sand snakes are also the same, which can be used to deal with sand people's ground penetration ability."

The city lord said loudly: "So, I am going to bring Blackstone Canyon under control and start the castle construction plan of Blackstone Canyon again. As long as I control Blackstone Canyon, I will have a steady stream of griffins, and the environment there is also suitable for breeding sand snakes. And sand sculptures. Our city is not suitable for keeping these beasts."

Everyone was shocked, but didn't expect that the second plan of the city lord was actually this.

"I am against." A high-ranking military officer immediately said loudly: "The influence of Blackrock Canyon is too great. Once a castle is built there, the Sandmen will definitely attack frantically, and may even attract the Sandmen from within the Quicksand Empire."

"I also object. The plan to build the castle last time was crazily destroyed by them. The manpower and material resources consumed were too great. I am not saying that the griffon is useless, but we can use other methods.
