Chapter 215: The Game
If it was replaced by him, he would be in the current situation of the Silver Wolf Tribe, and he would also need to weigh carefully before starting a war with his old enemy.
With the hand of the Eternal Night Army to sow discord years ago, they have already shown their vigilance and malice towards the Odin orcs.
With both enemies on the back and the belly, how dare the Silver Wolf Tribe rashly start a war with their old enemy.
Now the Silver Wolf Tribe faces only two choices.
The first is to unite with their old enemies, find out the forces hidden behind the Odin Grand Canyon, kill them, and then fight their old enemies to the death.
The second is to contact the forces entrenched in the Odin Grand Canyon before starting a war with one's old enemy, even if it cannot be used as foreign aid, then it is necessary to reach a peace consensus and not make small moves behind one's back.
As long as the leader of the Silver Wolf Tribe is a smart person, the two options are two first, then one.
Because although there is a certain amount of friction between them and the Eternal Night Group Army, the contradictions are far from irreconcilable, and the difficulty of persuasion is naturally relatively low, which is nothing more than whether the benefits given are attractive enough.
On the contrary, the two major tribes of Evil Wolf and Gray Wolf, who are their old enemies, are eager to destroy them immediately, how can they join forces with the Silver Wolf Tribe to solve the enemy behind it, and then fight to the death.
It is more likely to unite with that unknown force and destroy themselves first.
I have to say that Erikson is looking at things quite viciously now, which is inseparable from the Eternal Night Army in addition to his personal talent.
No matter how talented a person is, if the circle he lives in is only a village of hundreds of people, he can at best dominate the village.
If his life circle is a city of millions of people, even if he is at a relatively low level, the things he comes into contact with are more complex and have a greater impact than those he encounters in a village of hundreds of people.
Before joining the Eternal Night Army, Erikson had been in a high position under Bolton and was reused, mastering at best a corps.
Before seeing the heavily armed Eternal Night Corps, Erickson was still complacent, thinking that the slave hunters he had trained were among the best elite soldiers in terms of training and equipment, if not one of the best.
Now, I can only say that I was lonely and unheard of at the beginning.
In the Eternal Night Army, Erickson lived a semi-imprisoned life, although he was only a military chief of staff.
However, with the rapid expansion of the Eternal Night Group Army, there are more and more information in the hands of the army, and the vision and pattern of looking at things are constantly improving.
Before this, Erikson could not have imagined that sitting at home would be able to know what the world would be like.
Now for the top brass of the Eternal Night Army, it has become commonplace.
Erikson doesn't remember exactly when someone would give him a piece of paper with all kinds of important information at a fixed time.
The internal official name is "real-time information transmission internal newspaper", referred to as internal newspaper, internal newspaper.
The initial delivery of the internal newspaper was limited to a few high-ranking members of the Eternal Night Army, and the delivery time was also very erratic, either once a month or once every two months.
Slowly the scope of delivery is getting wider and wider, first the core departments of the Military Staff, then the Corps and Regiment Headquarters, and now it is directly pushed to the first floor of the Hundred People's Guard, I believe that it will not be long before it is no longer a dream to deliver it to every officer, or even one per person.
The frequency of delivery is becoming more and more frequent and stable, first once a month, then slowly become once every two weeks, once a week, and now directly become twice a week.
The paper used in the internal newspaper is also constantly changing, at first it is very sparse and loose, placed in the sun, it is translucent, you must be careful, spread it on the table to read, because if you are not careful, you will poke a hole in it, the font is even bigger and scary, each one is bigger than a thumb, and the amount of information carried on it can be imagined.
Now it has become stronger, not to mention, and the writing on both sides, all of them are small characters, the amount of information carried by the sea has gone, and the carrying is no longer simple real-time information, and there are some famous classics, which is a natural self-study textbook.
Since Erikson received the internal report, he was not willing to waste a copy, and carefully collected them all and took them out from time to time to read.
From this small internal report, you can see a lot of things.
Needless to say, the papermaking and printing technology of the Eternal Night Army are advancing by leaps and bounds, and it will not take long to be put into large-scale production and use, and the changes will be earth-shattering.
The side reflects that the power of the Hawkeye Special Service of the Eternal Night Army is increasing day by day, not only the penetration surface, but also the depth of penetration is amazing, because some of the news in the internal newspaper is not accessible to ordinary people, obviously those Hawkeye have penetrated deep into the Lord of the Byron Alliance.
But come to think of it, this situation is not surprising, the Hawkeyes of the Hawkeye Special Service Department are all carefully selected from the Eternal Night Army and have been specially trained.
To be eloquent, to have knowledge, to have knowledge, to have means, to have ability, plus the financial support of the Eternal Night Army in the back, if such a person is confused, it will be hell!
Eriksen had been in the Eternal Night Army, surrounded by people who had received the same information, and there was no way to feel how much he had changed in the past four years, but as soon as he came into contact with Laksh, the leader of the Silver Wolf Tribe, he could feel it.
To be honest, Rakesh can definitely bear the word wisdom, his gaze is not as narrow as ordinary Odin orcs, nor is he bound by racial concepts, he should be a rare wise man among Odin orcs.
If it weren't for the unfavorable years, the Silver Wolf Tribe suffered from the plague and natural disaster, not only would it not fall to the current level, but on the contrary, it would continue to grow and develop under his leadership.
The other party should be a person with a story, who has seen the wider world when he was young.
But it is also limited to this, the information in his mouth, I don't know whether it is the old yellow calendar that is a few years behind or decades behind, especially for the Andes people, it is still at the level of three caves and eight villages.
Although it was not clearly expressed, he was a little contemptuous of Eriksen's fact that he was not from three holes.
But Erikson had no intention of correcting and explaining.
As soon as he came, he told him that the Eternal Night Group Army had almost swallowed all the three caves and eight villages into his stomach and digested them, and the other party would definitely not believe it.
Human beings sometimes only believe what they have seen and heard with their own eyes, and when others tell the truth, they think they are lying to him.
Second, it is more beneficial for them to profit from it by maintaining a certain mystery.
In this way, Eriksen was not in a hurry to reveal his intentions, and tried to provoke Rakesh with haha, wanting to see what the other party's idea was.
Negotiation is a very particular thing, and whoever takes the initiative is likely to suffer.
This time, although it was the Eternal Night Army that took the initiative to envoy the Silver Wolf Tribe, the Eternal Night Army knew everything about the situation of the Silver Wolf Tribe, but the Silver Wolf Tribe knew nothing about the Eternal Night Army.
The information is not equal, if Erikson does not slaughter the silver wolf tribe ruthlessly, it will really live up to his name as chief of staff.
After the group arrived at the camp of the Silver Wolf Tribe, Rakesh held a feast, which was the highest standard all-cattle banquet for the Orcs of Odin.
At the banquet, the two sides talked happily, including Tagore and Yale, who did not understand the language, were also very happy, with good wine, delicious food and good food, and good life waiting, what was not interesting?
Even the hot field activity commonly used by the Orcs of Odin - wrestling.
is also very interested in their appetite, in the half-awake and half-drunk, the bear Yale personally went down the field, and even selected more than a dozen warriors of the Silver Wolf Tribe, winning the favor of the first beauty of the Silver Wolf Tribe, so that the atmosphere reached its peak.
And Erickson never mentioned that the Eternal Night Army was preparing to join forces with the Silver Wolf Tribe to annex the Evil Wolf Gray Wolf Tribe, only saying that the Eternal Night Army was preparing to open trade with the Silver Wolf Tribe and communicate with each other.
"Father, what do these guys mean? Send two unequaled warriors, I don't think it's to talk about business, but to show off their strength!" Gerriggule asked Rakesh through some gritted teeth, the man-bear Yale showed his prowess in the wrestling tournament, which made these Odin orcs, who were known for their bravery, very shameless.
Legend has it that the Warlocks of the Ancient Andes Empire used the bodies of the Kentana barbarians as templates when they created the Odin Orcs.
However, most people scoff at this legend.
Because although the Odin orcs are strong, they are also compared to the Byronic people, compared to the Kentana barbarians who are often two meters three or four, and are covered with muscle bumps, they are not half a section, including the bear tribe.
As mentioned earlier, the division of the various tribal races of the Odin orcs is not in terms of size, but in terms of the racial talents they have, and the bear Odin orcs are not necessarily stronger than the cat Odin orcs.
Don't lose your strength.
This sentence may still be broken among ordinary people with different levels of training.
But it is an unbreakable truth for well-trained knights, especially big knights and even champion knights who have developed the potential of each of their muscles.
The mountain Kentana barbarians have an absolute physical advantage.
As an orthodox wolf tribe, the Silver Wolf Tribe has a racial talent called Wolf Attack, which has the same effect as the leopard speed of the Leopard Clan, but one is on the legs and the other is on the arms.
Once activated, the arms will have incredible strength and explosiveness, whether with a bow or a sword, the attack speed will reach an incredible level.
So, don't compare the rate of fire to the wolf Odin orcs, that will make you die a miserable death.
The Wolf Rangers are a well-known unit of the Orcs of Odin.
But when you get off the horse, you will suffer more by simply competing with each other.
"It's just to show off force. Rakesh's eyes sparkled with wisdom, "Talking about business is just an excuse for them, and I think they want a piece of the grassland more." ”
"Father means that they are going to join forces with us to deal with the Evil Wolf and Gray Wolf Tribes?" asked Grigule with some surprise.
Rakesh had discussed with him the unknown forces of the Grand Canyon of Odin.
The situation of the Silver Wolf Tribe has now fallen to its lowest point ever.
First, a plague hurt his vitality, and then he fought a series of battles with the evil wolf gray wolf tribe that peeked at him, which hurt his muscles and bones.
went to the Kogel grassland to recuperate and recuperate, and was targeted by their old enemies, at first the two sides were relatively restrained, ready to recuperate with peace of mind, and wait until the spring of the next year, and then fight for life and death.
As a result, for the sake of their own safety, the Eternal Night Army sowed discord, fueled the flames, and let the two sides go to war without preparation, resulting in a defeat for both sides.
Judging from the results of the battle damage, the two sides are basically equal.
However, the combination of the Evil Wolf and the Gray Wolf Tribe had a greater advantage in numbers, and the battle damage result was the same, which ultimately led to the Silver Wolf Tribe being weakened even more.
What's more, the Silver Wolf Tribe sensed the Eternal Night Army in the process.
Whoever has an unknown enemy lurking behind him will not be able to sleep steadily.
In desperation, they can only keep this elite from dispersing, so that the already insufficient manpower is even more stretched, the preparation of winter materials is insufficient, many cattle and sheep have not survived, and the rest are also emaciated, which is not enough to support them to travel long distances through the desert next door.
The Silver Wolf Tribe has now been forced to a dead end, and after the beginning of spring, not only will they have to fight with the Evil Wolf and Gray Wolf Tribe, but they can only win and not be defeated, and they can't let their strength be damaged too much.
Because no one knows if the Andes, hidden behind the Grand Canyon of Odin, will take the opportunity to reap the benefits of the fishermen?
After thinking about it, the only way is to drag the other side into the swamp of war as well.
Rakesh's earlier statement that if Erikson didn't come, they would come to their door, not politely, but really prepared to do so.
As for the losses caused to the Silver Wolf Tribe before the winter, because of the sowing discord of the Eternal Night Army, they completely pretended not to know, in the face of the crisis of the dead clan, what is this bit of hatred?
Moreover, Rakesh and the others obviously misunderstood the warning given to them by Hull of the Eye of Odin at the beginning, and mistook the invisible devil in the other party's mouth for the Eternal Night Army.
"Don't really think that they are kind, they are here to cut meat. A hint of coldness flashed in Rakesh's eyes and he said, "As long as our tribe can survive, what about cutting the meat? The meat they gnawed off us will be returned intact one day." ”
"These villains who take advantage of people's danger are no different from the evil wolf and gray wolf tribes. Grigule said angrily.
"There is a difference. Rakesh looked quite open, "They are just a pack of jackals, they can only occasionally tear two pieces of meat from the grassland to eat, but there is no way to enter here, we are the real masters of the grassland,"
All that's left is to test each other.
Test the bottom line of both sides, and then grind little by little.
It not only tests the adaptability of both parties, but also examines the patience of both parties.
Erikson did not live up to the trust given by Sean, not only did he not show anything unusual, but did his best, competing with the chief of the Silver Wolf Tribe, Lakesh, and even down to the ownership of each warhorse.
In this regard, Sean is a little less confident.
The Eternal Night Group Army is no longer the grass-terraced team with only 10,000 people and a reputation that only revolves in 100 miles.
Under the rule of hundreds of thousands of people, tens of thousands of elite troops, the ruling area is nearly 1,000 kilometers longitudinal and horizontal, although most of them are mountainous, not suitable for farming, but also solid and can be called a large land.
In the Byronic Alliance, compared with those deep-rooted archdukes, it still lacks a little foundation, but compared to those marquis and earls, it is pure rolling.
Don't forget, those marquis and counts, which one is not hereditary for hundreds of years.
And the Eternal Night Group Army is full of calculations, from its establishment to the present, it is less than four years, if Sean collects those orphans and establishes the Junior Army, it will also be counted, and it will not be more than fifteen years before and after.
If such a high-speed rocket is not sitting, Erikson will be kicked in the head by a donkey, and he will carry the Eternal Night Army on his back.
