At eleven o'clock at noon on November 26, 1175, the caravan led by Yan Tielong finally arrived in Jingyang City.

However, Yan Tielong had problems entering Jingyang City again, and the reason was that Yan Tielong and their caravan numbered too much.

There are sixty or seventy thousand people in Qiangran Jingyang City, but the male dwarves are less than ten thousand adults, so the dwarven city lord is worried that Yan Tielong has strange intentions to threaten Jingyang City.

After an hour of negotiation, the dwarves agreed to Yan Tielong and their five hundred men to enter, and the others had to camp ten kilometers away.

Of course, before entering the city, the captain of the gatekeeper dwarf warned Yan Tielong that the elves were not allowed to enter the city, and once the elves were discovered, they would be forcibly expelled.

Yan Tielong used a bottle of forty-five-degree wine to learn from the captain of the gate guard that the reason why the dwarves forbade the elves from entering the city was because in the three months that Yan Tielong left, the elves ransacked three more dwarf cities, and as a result, more than 100,000 dwarf adult males became the elves as reproductive tools, so the dwarf king issued a ban on the elves from entering the dwarf city.

Yan Tielong heard that the elves attacked the dwarf city and captured 100,000 male dwarves, he was very puzzled in his heart, after all, he knew that the dark elf clan was going to deal with the Earth Flame Demon now, and it stands to reason that the dark elf should have a good relationship with the dwarf to deal with the Earth Flame Demon together, instead of bringing the relationship between the two sides to the freezing point.

Qiang Ran Yan Tielong couldn't understand why the dark elves attacked the dwarves at this time, so he didn't want to, and now what Yan Tielong had to do was to transport the goods to the warehouse of the Fire Yang Hot Spring Hotel.

In the face of Yan Tielong's arrival, Lei Gu Qian Yueji, who had been waiting for a long time, directly complained about why the goods had not arrived until now, and according to the normal speed, the goods should have arrived three months ago, causing her to have no salary for three months, so that she could not even afford to buy the inferior wine.

Yan Tielong heard Lei Guqian Yueji complaining, he apologized directly, and said that he would be compensated three times his salary for three months, and at the same time reward the employees who still insisted on a bottle of good wine each.

When Lei Gu Qian Yueji heard that Yan Tielong was compensated three times his salary, plus a bottle of good wine, she directly said Long live the boss.

Seeing that Lei Guqian Yueji was very excited, Yan Tielong asked the other party to call the employees here, after all, there was no salary paid for three months, and the employees who wanted to come here should almost not be able to solve the pot.

Soon three employees appeared, and seeing that there was only one dwarf and it was a landwalker, Yan Tielong couldn't help frowning, after all, there were nearly twenty-three employees on his original side.

Hearing the boss's inquiry, Reguqian Yueji directly said that there was no salary, and all the twenty people ran away, if it weren't for the influence of her grandfather's prestige, maybe the other two senior brothers would also leave.

Hearing Reguqian Yueji's story, Yan Tielong rewarded the three dwarves in front of him with two bottles of good wine, and then asked Reguqian Yueji about the situation of the hotel and storefront.

Receiving three times her salary and three bottles of good wine that she had never seen before, Regucy Tsukihime began to tell about the fire hot spring inn and the store.

Since Yan Tielong had previously handed over the follow-up funds for the renovation to Lei Gu Qian Yueji, there was no problem with the renovation of Huoyang Hot Springs, and the two tons of fine salt left by Yan Tielong had been sold out two months ago, which was still controlled by Lei Gu Qian Yueji, otherwise Yan Tielong would have been sold out within a week of leaving.

Of course, Lei Gu Qian Yueji also helped Yan Tielong acquire a lot of equipment created by high-quality dwarves, which directly allowed Yan Tielong to change the equipment on his body, which also allowed Yan Tielong to reward each of the three dwarves with a bottle of good wine.

After enjoying the lunch he cooked, Yan Tielong asked Reguqian Yueji about the situation of the dwarves, after all, what was the situation of the elves attacking the three dwarven cities just now?

Through the narration of Reguqian Yueji, Yan Tielong knew that the elves who attacked the dwarf city were not the dark elves, but the fallen elves.

However, the Fallen Elves' attack on the three dwarf cities also made the Dwarf King very angry, which also led to the rejection of the request of the Dark Elf Envoy Alliance to fight against the Earth Flame Demons, and at the same time, it was also announced that the Elves were not allowed to enter the Dwarf City, and even the Dwarf King had gathered an army to give the Fallen Elves a look.

In fact, through the narration of Reguqian Yueji, Yan Tielong knew that the war between the dwarf king and the fallen elves was a last resort.

It turned out that the Fallen Elves had recently sacked three dwarven cities in a row, which had caused anger and dissatisfaction among ordinary dwarves, as well as panic, and with the help of the war madmen sent by the God of War, a total of more than 700 dwarven nobles actually reached 680 dwarven nobles and proposed to the dwarf king to start a war against the fallen elves.

Faced with the will of the dwarves, the need for stability, and the fear of the threat of the Flame Demons, the Dwarven King had to refuse the Dark Elf Alliance and gather an army to prepare for war against the Fallen Elves.

However, Yan Tielong didn't expect that Reguqian Yueji's grandfather, the Earth Walker, was actually very supportive of the dwarf race's war against the fallen elves.

Unable to understand that Regu Baishen Mo was a wise earth walker supporting the dwarves to fight the Fallen Elves during this period, he asked Regusi Tsukihime why her grandfather supported the war against the Fallen Elves.

In the face of the boss's inquiry, Regusi Yueji really knew, and she told Yan Tielong that the first reason why her grandfather supported the war with the fallen elves was to let the dwarves who had not been through the war for many years adapt to the war, and when the real war started, the dwarves would be more stable within the dwarf race.

The second point is military training, but the dwarves often clash with the elves, but the dwarves have not experienced real wars for many years, and their combat power is compared to the dwarves thousands of years ago.

The third point is to make the dwarves internally stable, after all, thousands of years of stability have made the class conflicts and contradictions within the dwarves have reached a very dangerous level, which is likely to lead to civil wars, and external wars are a very effective means of diverting the attention of internal contradictions and class conflicts, especially against the fallen elves who oppress the dwarves, but will make the dwarves cohesive internally.

The fourth point is that during this period, there is a very low probability that a war with the fallen elves will lead to a full-scale war, and it is very possible to even become allies halfway through the fight, after all, whether it is a dwarf or an elf, their enemy was the Earth Flame Demon a thousand years ago, and now the Earth Flame Demon has bypassed the flat created a thousand years ago, and they think in their hearts that the Earth Flame Demon is their real enemy.

In fact, the first person to discover that the Earth Flame Demon bypassed the thousand-year-old fortress barrier was the Fallen Elf Race, and the Fallen Elf also sent an envoy to inform all the underground races that had fought against the Earth Fire Demon Race, and as a result, the notified race was regarded as a kind of deception by the Fallen Elves.

When the wise man of the fallen elves learned that the underground races he had been informed did not believe them, he decided that it was better to ask for others than for himself, so their first goal was to plunder the dwarven cities and obtain a large number of male dwarves.

First, male dwarves can help them craft weapons.

Second, it is to arouse the dissatisfaction of the dwarves and trigger a war to achieve the effect of military training.

Third, it is to increase the population, the Fallen Elves think that fighting against the Earth Flame Demons is a long-term matter, and if they wait for the alliance, they will not be able to attack the alliance.

In fact, when the fallen elves plundered the dwarven city, they only captured the male dwarves and did not destroy the city, let alone deliberately kill the female dwarves, and they were already planning for the future truce and alliance.

Of course, the Fallen Elven Sage thinks that they will definitely have a truce with the Dwarves in the future, that is, their fellow Dark Elves, after all, once the Dark Elves see the Earth Flame Demon pass through the fortress barrier, the Dark Elf Clan will inevitably come to mediate their war with the Dwarves and reach a consensus to fight against the Earth Flame Demon together.

Things were just as the fallen elf sages expected, but what they didn't expect was that this year's dwarf kings were a little cowardly, and they didn't start a war in the face of them plundering a dwarf city, so they would unceremoniously plunder three cities in a row.

Of course, what the fallen elf sage did not expect was that the Earth Flame Demon was so bold to run to the territory of the Dark Elf Clan to plunder, which also caused the Fallen Elf to not know how to respond to the Dark Elf Alliance to fight against the Earth Flame Demon for a while, after all, the Fallen Elf originally wanted to use the Dark Elf to mediate the war, and now that the war has not started, how can it be possible to agree to the Dark Elf Alliance.

However, soon the Fallen Elves thought of how to reject the Dark Elves' messengers, and the reason was that the Dark Elves looked down on them, so the Fallen Elves refused to ally with the Dark Elves.

As for the reason for the Fallen Elves to refuse the alliance, the Dark Elf Envoy was also very helpless, because the Dark Elves could not refute the reasons given by the Fallen Elves, after all, the current Dark Elves did look down on the Fallen Elves, otherwise they would not have sent a three-person mission.

After learning that the dwarves were going to war with the fallen elves, Yan Tielong began to worry that the goods he prepared for the dwarves would depreciate significantly, after all, during the war, weapons and equipment, food and various military consumables were very sought-after, and wine, a commodity that would affect military discipline, would drop significantly.

As a result, Yan Tielong was worried that it was redundant, and Lei Gu Qian Yueji told Yan Tielong that the dwarves were very fond of drinking, and during the war, there were often dwarves who used wine to boost morale, so Yan Tielong's transportation of alcoholic goods would greatly increase the price.

The price of weapons and equipment will indeed increase, but the increase will not be very large, because almost every dwarf can strike iron, and most dwarves have their own equipment in the adult trial.
