249. There is a successor

The question of position does not need to be stated at all!

Even if from the perspective of the state, Lone Mountain immediately issued an official letter denouncing the Woodland Kingdom, all the creatures of Middle-earth would not believe it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info I don't know if I think that the lonely mountain and the woodland are superficially opposed, but in fact the strategy of unity confuses the living beings. You must know that since the Lone Mountain Army arrived at the Graton Plains to participate in the military exercise as promised two months ago, in the eyes of all the creatures in Middle-earth, it has made its stand clear with its actions! No matter what you say now, there is no need or change the facts. Choosing to unite with the woodland kingdom is the most profitable way. You must know that because of the Elven King, the Elven race will definitely be on the side of the Woodland Kingdom. The elves and the dwarves are on the same side, and the other races other than the Danden must be intimidated by the strength of the two countries, and they dare not make remarks about the joint military exercises, let alone do anything substantial.

One choice can leave the opponent with only one race left, and Lone Mountain will of course choose the woodland side.

"Chad, you get out of the way. After watching the departure of the two generals, the dwarven officials once again reiterated that the Lonely Mountain Kingdom would definitely withstand the heavy burden, and did not even mind guarding the border for the woodland, before following the words and requesting the Elven King to guide the two generals.

It is true that it did not surprise the elven king, of course, the dwarven king was not willing to stand in the way of his allies! After succeeding to the throne, he never stopped chasing wealth, and the dwarven king knew that the price of righteousness was too expensive.

The failure of the joint military exercise not only allowed the dwarven king to see the strong combat effectiveness of the forest country, but also gave all the dwarves in the lonely mountain a sense of crisis. The disaster in the Graton Plains has confirmed that the power of evil has not dissipated, and the disaster may return at any time to invade the entire Middle-earth continent, if the Lonely Mountain Kingdom does not improve its combat effectiveness, how can it protect itself? The dwarven officials got together, but it took ten minutes to negotiate the result of closely uniting with the woodlands and fighting hand in hand according to the current situation. Of course, as a close ally, the Elven King would not refuse to instruct the young dwarven general. Anyway, Lonely Mountain can't get rid of the identity of the initiator of the joint military exercise, and the dwarven king who pursues wealth will never offend the woodland kingdom that has the same position, no matter how stupid he is.

"By the way, I would like to take this opportunity to ask the Elf King to guide the generals and help me improve my combat effectiveness. Before leaving, the dwarf king touched his beard and explained to the officials again, "Anyway, there are no soldiers in the woodland now, and if anything happens, I will have to borrow the power of the lonely mountain." Thranduil was so smart that she knew absolutely that helping Gushan in this situation was helping herself. ā€

The truth was indeed as expected by the dwarf king, and the elf king nodded, which was considered to be an agreement.

The Dwarven King's reaction to the disaster on the Plains of Graton was far beyond the Elven King's expectations. Gushan described himself as the "initiator of the joint military exercise", and he also had an attitude of facing the crisis before the woodland kingdom, which made Thranduil feel a little stunned. However, he quickly calmed down and nodded in agreement to point to the dwarven generals.

Although he didn't know the wishful thinking of the dwarven king, the elven king still decided on the proposal of "instructing the dwarven generals" based on the dwarven king's far superior trade ability. With the mentality of not wanting the other party to win too well, he said solemnly: "Since I have promised to guide them, I will definitely be responsible to the end." However, the military is different from others, and it is necessary to have a certain number of soldiers to guide in actual combat. It's a pity that the current soldiers in the woodland have their own tasks, and actual combat guidance cannot be carried out. I also have to deal with the diplomatic side. In this case, I gave them a few books and asked them to take them back to the Lonely Mountain to study carefully, and the effect was the same. ā€

After the Elf King's words were brought back to the Lonely Mountain by the officials, the Dwarf King scolded him for not taking advantage of him at all. Although in front of all the officials, he vented his dissatisfaction with the Elven King with a smooth and non-oppressive scolding, all the dwarves present, including the Dwarf King himself, knew that no matter how dissatisfied they were, they could only look at uniting and losing the least, and firmly maintained good and close diplomatic relations with the Elven King.

When he had to stop drinking for a while when his mouth was dry, the next king of Lonely Mountain, the current Grand Prince of Lonely Mountain, quietly invited the dwarven generals who had participated in the Battle of the "Last Alliance" to the side for a secret chat. Knowing the details of the four battles that the Elven King had personally completed during the "Last Alliance" period, he pondered for a moment, and finally temporarily suspended the third scolding launched by the Dwarf King against the Elven King with the most rigorous salute.

"What the Elf King said is not wrong, military guidance is indeed just empty talk in the state of no soldiers. Seeing that the dwarf king's eyes were glaring, and he was about to change the target of the scolding to himself, the eldest prince, who was half-squatting in front of the dwarf king, said hurriedly: "For the sake of the evil that may return at any time, and any country may face the evil legion, give up the stubbornness of the dwarves for the time being, and transfer some troops to the woodland for the elf king to give some advice." ā€

Let the current Lonely Mountain King Division fight against the evil army? That's a stubborn force that the humans and elves have been gnawing at for seven years with all their might, and still haven't wiped them out!

The dwarf king who was defeated by the elf king in the military exercise flashed in his mind, and the dwarf king closed his mouth and nodded heavily. "Then you will personally bring two thousand soldiers there. ā€

The night before the former woodland kingdom, the dwarf king withdrew all his belongings and solemnly explained to the eldest prince: "If you go, you will simply lower your body and humbly ask for advice." I'm old, and I'm going to leave this world in a few years, and I won't necessarily be in time for evil to return. However, it is very likely that you, after taking over my position, will lead all the dwarves in a head-on confrontation with the forces of evil. ā€

The Great Prince, who is interested in war but understands how terrible war is, hesitated: "Father, I have never participated in a real war. I ......"

"There's no need to worry too much about the future, my kid. I have left you with enough wealth to fight evil, and it is up to you how you use them to increase your chances of victory. When you go to the woodland, in addition to asking the elf king for advice on the art of war, you should also learn his ability to use wealth reasonably. Remember, we are a great race created by Vilaoli, and we are strong and will not succumb to evil. ā€

Even the queen didn't know that the dwarven king's fanatical pursuit of money was mostly a joke.

When he sent away a dwarven king who was also his father, the new dwarven king realized how poor his kingdom was. When the country was not very wealthy, his father consumed his already small wealth by participating in military exercises many times.
