Solomon didn't know what was happening in the Cape of Plenty yet, and even if he knew, he probably wouldn't care much.

From his personal point of view, he actually hopes that Lanita can survive, so that it will be easier for him to explain to Zebulun and the Wizarding Society.

But he thought he had done everything he could. Lanita was captured because of his own mistakes, and it had nothing to do with him.

But as the coach, he put himself at risk and went to exchange the captured Yi clan girl back in person.

If this step can be achieved, even if Lanita really dies in the end, it will be difficult for Zebron to use this matter to make trouble and remove him as the commander of the expeditionary force.

As for the wizard society, there is a little more trouble, but those wizards are also a group of very realistic and cold guys. If Lanita is still alive, they may come to trouble him.

But after death, there is no need for conflict between the two parties.

Solomon no longer wanted to think about this matter anymore, but instead focused on the current war.

As soon as they entered the Western Territory, they encountered the enemy.

The raiders hid in woods and swamps, and attacked the army as they passed.

However, once the attacker reacts, they will quickly withdraw, taking advantage of the complex surrounding environment to avoid pursuit and detection.

Of course, their hiding places were not without flaws. Solomon sent wing warriors to cooperate with the dwarves and allies of the imperial nobles in the sky to search bit by bit, and finally found all 25 sneak attackers in the woods.

They were herded into the open space outside and knelt in a row.

Those Yi clan warriors used them to compete in archery, and with the sound of the bowstring trembling, the captives fell to the ground one by one.

Most of them were shot to death on the spot, and those who were still breathing had their heads cut off by those who came to check.

The Yi people were so excited about doing this, they even stripped off the knight who led the team, gave him a wooden sword and forced him to choose an opponent to fight according to the knight tradition.

Undoubtedly, those Wing Warriors had the absolute upper hand in this ridiculous duel.

However, they were not in a hurry to kill their opponents. In the end, the knight had more than a dozen arrows in his body before he died in pain.

Solomon was not very satisfied with this. He didn't think the soldiers under him were too cruel, but he felt that it took too long to capture and execute this mere 25 people.

It wasn't until dusk that the army set off again, and they encountered another surprise attack not far away.

So everyone repeated their tricks and started searching on the spot, but this time the sky was already dark when halfway through the search, so they had no choice but to give up temporarily and surrounded the swamp, planning to search again tomorrow.

But Solomon frowned at this time.

These enemies are small groups. Their actions are mainly harassment. They appear suddenly with the help of the terrain. No matter whether they succeed or not, they will disappear quickly. The damage they can cause each time is actually very limited.

But in order to arrest their army, it takes a lot of energy and time.

The commander of the Yi clan vaguely sensed that the purpose of these people's appearance might just be to slow down their marching speed.

So the next morning, Solomon changed his strategy and ordered the noble lords to send out cavalry to swim around the army. If they encountered sneak attackers, they didn't have to be wiped out, just drive them away.

This trick took effect very quickly, and the marching speed of the army was improved.

In the morning of the second day, he arrived outside the first town. The lord of that town personally opened the city gate and led his two sons out of the city to greet him as a sign of submission.

They prepared six chests of gold, two chests of jewels, and three hundred young virgins.

But they failed to see Solomon, only a dwarf named Willy came forward to accept their gift.

Then unceremoniously led people to ransack their town.

The lord and his two sons just stood outside the city in such embarrassment, watching the dwarves move out all kinds of goods from the city, and listening to the crying and wailing from the other side of the city wall.

It wasn't until the goods piled up like a hill that the dwarf named Willie came back and found the lord, asking the latter to send people and a carriage to deliver the goods to the Horn of Plenty first.

After listening to Willy's words, the lord's face turned green.

This is nothing, his territory has been ransacked, and he still needs someone to help the robbers who ransacked him carry the loot.

Perhaps the only consolation is that the dwarf named Willy also said that they only took half of the property this time, and left him some property.

However, before the lord could be happy, the Youyi tribe found him and asked him to take good care of the remaining half of the property. After Solomon conquered the western region, he would send someone to count and take it away.

After hearing this, the lord felt that he was about to die. He couldn't help but regret that he didn't listen to Ilea's words and chose to resist.

However, after seeing the army in front of him, he felt that resistance would not end well. Although surrendering was shameful, at least he could save his life anyway.

In short, Solomon took down the first town in the western region without bloodshed. He also sent people to collect most of the food in the city, effectively alleviating the army's food shortage.

After that, Solomon hardly took a break and chose to move on.

But this time they finally ran into some trouble. The attackers still emerged from the woods, but this time there were a lot more people, a total of three hundred.

The cavalry patrolling nearby were captured by them as soon as they met, and then they set fire to some of the food and grass.

Not much, but enough to be annoying.

The main reason is that the number of attackers in the previous few waves was not too large, which made everyone relax their vigilance, but unexpectedly, the opposite side suddenly suppressed a large wave.

This time Solomon didn't choose to forget it. Even from a rational point of view, this kind of people can't cause more harm. If it's just for the purpose of quickly conquering the Western Region, it's more appropriate to leave it alone.

However, not everyone can think about the problem from a rational point of view. If they really leave it alone, it will undoubtedly affect the morale of the army.

So Solomon could only spend another half a day, but this time he only found less than a hundred people.

Since the army was dispersed, those who were arrested did not know where the remaining 200 people went.

Solomon only learned from their mouths that most of them were from Hongta City and belonged to the Treiles family, and the rest were fighters from some small noble families.

Solomon asked people to record all the families behind them, and planned to slaughter them all at that time.

He left a thousand dwarves to go on looking for someone, and the rest went on their way.

In the next two days, they passed through three towns without encountering any decent resistance. The lords there either went out of the city to surrender, or ran away early.

The [-] Winged Warriors brought by Solomon had done a little bit of work in finding someone before, but they hadn't made a move until now, and they even felt a little bored.

The only attrition was actually death.
