Chapter 1231 Nothing to Fear

In the Smith Republic, Narga was busy with various internal frictions after the establishment of the Republic, while Zhou Xu, who was far away in the Black Moon City Palace of the Great Zhou, was only thinking about making money.

From the perspective of the environment and race, the dwarves and female warriors in the Copperforge are definitely not good in terms of grain production.

And their Great Zhou happened to be a major grain-producing country. For now, it is not difficult for Zhou Xu to increase the scale of fields and increase grain production.

Next, if they can reach a long-term cooperation with the dwarves and female warriors in the purchase of grain, it will be a stable income for their Great Zhou.

Of course, even if the dwarves and female warriors don’t want it, they can digest it internally. After all, their internal population has been growing rapidly in recent years.

At this pace, the demand for grain in their Great Zhou will continue to rise at a rather alarming rate in the next few years.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xu, Huo Qubing, Li Bowen and others simply discussed and quickly made a decision to allow the South Border Farm to further expand the farmland area and increase the internal grain production!

In this process, the Smith Kingdom has solved the division problem, and the news that the two internal forces have merged to form the Smith Republic has also reached Zhou Xu's ears.

"Smith Republic. It sounds like Fisher has the upper hand."

Zhou Xu, who confirmed the news, did not have too much surprise on his face.

As early as before, when the information was limited and he could only speculate in his mind, he was not particularly optimistic about the other party.

Assuming that the two Vajra Realm warriors on the opposite side can form a situation of mutual checks and balances, then the key to victory falls on their respective troops.

After all, the black-skinned troops have been fighting with the green-skinned army for many years, and their strength itself is not weak at all. On the other hand, the Chosen Ones, in the case of the slave uprising, can only be said to be a group of slave soldiers temporarily assembled, and each of them is still pale and thin and malnourished.

In terms of individual strength and troop tactics, they are definitely not comparable to the black-skinned regular army. The only advantage may be quantity.

At the end of the battle, the black-skinned troops had a greater chance of winning.

Of course, if the opponent stayed in the city all the time and relied on the advantage of the city wall to defend, even if the black-skinned troops could win, they would probably have to pay a heavy price.

After all, without strong enough siege equipment, facing thick high walls, the human army's ability to break the city is relatively average, and there is a high probability that both sides will suffer losses.

With this as a premise, if both sides have a little brains and don't get confused, they should know that a ceasefire and merger is the only way to survive.

Now that the two sides have really merged, Zhou Xu, who learned the news, not only did not show any trace of pressure, but even became more calm.

Whether it is Fisher or the leader of the Luosha Republican Party, they can reach a consensus, shake hands and make peace in this situation to form the Smith Republic. This shows that they are essentially good at weighing the pros and cons, instead of fighting there regardless of anything.

Knowing how to weigh the pros and cons is good! In this way, their way of thinking can be traced. You can use this to figure out the other party's thoughts, figure out what the other party is thinking, and then better grasp it.

But madmen and fools are not okay, they have problems in their brains, you don't know what they are thinking at all, which will increase some unknown risks.

According to the current situation, it is most likely that the external threat of the greenskins will promote the merger of the two sides.

When they face the threat of the greenskins again, they will definitely be able to join hands to fight the enemy together.

Under this premise, the Blood Hand Clan and the Smith Republic are now two high-end combat forces. After the Blood Hand Clan attacks again, even if the Smith Republic is defeated, it should be able to withstand the offensive of the opposite side.

The pressure on their side has dropped all of a sudden.

As for whether they will pose a threat to themselves after the establishment of the Smith Republic...

Zhou Xu has to admit that he did not take the other party seriously.

Not only because at this stage, their Great Zhou still has a clear advantage in terms of combat power, but also because according to his current judgment of the Smith Republic, they may be able to jointly resist the invasion of the greenskins.

But once the problem of external invasion is solved, internal fighting will soon form. Even if it will not split again, it is likely that the internal fighting will not be stopped.

For Fisher, the merger now is more of a last resort. A group of slaves want to be on equal footing with them. Who can bear this?

The Chosen One is a bit naive. How can it be so easy to establish a republic in such an environment? He is not afraid of taking a big step and getting into trouble.

In this way, the Smith Republic is not to be feared by Zhou Xu at all.

However, the other party has now become a republic, which is also a benefit for Zhou Xu, that is, their spies from the Great Zhou can infiltrate more smoothly in the future.

Otherwise, like before, when all the people of other skin colors are slaves, it would be really difficult for them to send spies.

After sorting out his thoughts, Zhou Xu thought about it in his mind for a while, and quickly arranged things, and the morning work ended.

After a short lunch break, he started practicing directly in the afternoon.

This is also Zhou Xu's new mode at this stage.

He basically only does government affairs in the morning. From the afternoon, he studies and analyzes various mantras to improve his strength.

As his strength increased, the power of the mantra in his body became stronger, which also extended his training time. He could no longer completely exhaust his power in one night like before.

Over the years, he had studied and analyzed all the scattered mantras on his body, which also brought Zhou Xu a greater challenge at this time, that is, the mantra of the rank of 'Dragon Lord'!

The complexity of this mantra is more than a hundred times more complicated than those mantra phrases on Zhou Xu's body.

But in this process, Zhou Xu could clearly feel that by combining the knowledge in the 'inherited wisdom' and the rank of 'Dragon Lord' as his reference, his 'programming' ability was constantly improving.

The whole learning progress was so smooth that Zhou Xu couldn't help but wonder if this was arranged in advance.

Even after thinking about it a little, he found that it was probably true.

Because the rank of 'Inherited Wisdom' and 'Dragon Lord' were placed in the same place, after obtaining these two things, according to his own personality, he would definitely study them in comparison with each other!

Having a ready-made example in front of him also makes the whole research more efficient!
