Chapter 479: The Base of Mount Fas
At that time, even if the Terrans want to increase the price of incendiary materials, the Dwarves can still afford it due to the proportion of forging costs.
But if the source of ore is grasped, the dwarves will definitely not be able to accept the consequences of the sharp rise in ore prices.
Not only will they be completely subject to human control, but they will likely become cheap craftsmen who forge weapons for the Terrans.
"That's fine!"
Dibiat pondered for a while, thinking that in this way, their kobold clan could just focus on mining without too much trouble, so he nodded and agreed.
"But, Kenstein, what should we do if we can't make a deal with the Red Dragon Principality?"
Dibiat pondered for a moment, and said with some apprehension in his heart.
"Compared to facing the hungry and crazy army of tens of thousands of our two races, I believe that the Red Dragon Duke would prefer to see a collaborator who is beneficial to him!" Kenstein said lightly.
With the current situation of the dwarves and kobolds, they can only survive by cooperating with the Terrans, and there are not many principalities they can come into contact with.
Compared to the Duchy of Linton, the Duchy of the Red Dragon has more advantages, and the valley where the dwarves and kobolds are located at this time is much closer to the border of the Duchy of the Red Dragon than the Duchy of Linton.
Once cooperation can be reached with the Red Dragon Principality, the transportation of materials and food will be much easier and faster in the future.
Of course, Kenstein made up his mind that once the contact with the Red Dragon Principality was not successful, he would also try to contact the Principality of Linton as a last resort, after all, the two clans could not hang themselves on the Red Dragon Principality, in case the Red Dragon Duke resolutely did not cooperate with them, would the two clans starve to death?
As for what he said to Dibiat just now, if the cooperation is not reached, he will lead the hungry and crazy clansmen to threaten the Red Dragon Principality, Kenstein has not thought about it at all, he is just talking, it is simply asking for his own death and bringing the dwarven race to destruction!
The reason why Kenstein took the risk and returned to the earthly world with his clan was so that the dwarf race could continue smoothly, and naturally he would not do such a stupid thing that might kill the clan!
......
On April 3rd, the warm morning light sprinkled on the Fhas Mountain, and the large trees on the mountain grew tender green branches and leaves, a picture of vitality!
At this time, the reserve warrior base hidden in the depths of the mountain, bursts of encouragement and coaxing spread throughout the base.
In a place in the base, on the cavalry training ground covered with green grass, there were teenagers in circles and circles, wearing straight reserve military uniforms, hooking shoulders with each other, looking at a young man riding a war horse in the central clearing, with different expressions.
In the center of the huge open space surrounded by a horse with sharp thorns, a young man on horseback was standing with a gun.
Although his face was immature, his eyes revealed nervousness, and his figure had not yet fully grown, but the momentum of holding the spear was decent, at this time, the young man was wearing a small iron armor, holding the spear, gritting his teeth, and stabbing at an ugly creature in front of him!
The war horse took the young man, like a sharp arrow out of the groove, rushed over, the cold light flickered, and the tip of the spear pointed at the monster's chest, killing with one blow.
And the monster is very clever, one rolls, dodges, but unfortunately the boy's blow did not make a difference.
Immediately, there were laughter and sighs from all the teenagers around!
If you look closely, the ugly creature has black scales, limbs, and a hideous face, it is a kraken!
It's just that if you look closely, you will find that this kraken not only has its limbs and claws broken, but when it opens its mouth, its lower teeth are also all removed, and most of the kraken's strength is gone!
After the young man found that he had failed in one blow, he couldn't help but have a trace of disappointment on his face, and he lowered his head and muttered, the last round of assessment was really not that simple......
"One team, one team, one Vic, the first stab is not qualified!
Outside the rejection of the horse, a pock-faced instructor said expressionlessly, holding a booklet in his hand to record.
After hearing the instructor's words, Vic on the war horse turned white, bit his lip, and secretly decided that he must succeed this time!
Then Vic drove the war horse, retreated, and then snorted softly, his legs slammed into the horse's belly, the war horse was slightly painful, and rushed out in an instant, Vic held the spear in his hand tightly, staring at the kraken in front of him with his eyes, and the two sides seemed to have a deep feud in the sea of blood.
The kraken, who didn't have much intelligence, seemed to be very angry at the boy's behavior, baring his broken sharp teeth and roaring at Vic, waving his clawless hands, and rushing over!
Poof!
The cold light flashed before the eyes of the kraken, and the sharp tip of the spear pierced the kraken's scale armor and pierced into its chest, and the blood splattered around the barrel of the spear, and the kraken's body fell backwards and flew out under the strong inertia, and was carried by the spear, sliding all the way to the ground.
It wasn't until the war horse slowly stopped, biting Vic, who was about to support the spear in his hand, that he had time to observe the Kraken lying on the ground, the spear went deep into his chest, although it was not pierced and not far away, the Kraken was no longer moving, and could only let out a slight moan.
This was naturally seen by everyone around, and after a short silence, deafening cheers and cheers suddenly erupted all around.
"One team and one group of Vic, stabbing the second time, qualified! Promoted to a one-star reserve warrior!"
The pock-faced instructor's voice came again.
Vic naturally knew that he had succeeded, his face showed joy, he pulled out the spear on the kraken's body, dismounted and saluted the instructor, and then led the horse to leave from the horse rejection ring, from today onwards, he Vic is a one-star reserve warrior!
Next, a special person dragged the kraken's corpse away, and then grabbed a kraken from a wooden cage in the distance and put it in the horse rejection pen.
With the roll call of the instructor, an excited teenager led the war horse, walked into it, and began the stabbing assessment!
In order to carry out all-round and in-depth training of the fighters, the reserve warrior base has graded the reserve soldiers, from the zero-star that starts to come in, to the three-star that can be allowed to graduate, and then to the higher and more professional four-star, five-star and six-star!
Each star promotion, there are many kinds of assessments, only through all the assessments, can the crosshairs be promoted, such as the stabbing assessment just now, is the last assessment for the promotion of sporadic reserve fighters to one-star reserve fighters, as long as they are qualified, they can be promoted to one-star reserve warriors.
The reserve soldier base stipulates that only reserve fighters who have reached the three-star level are allowed to graduate, and then join the army to become a soldier, which is the minimum standard, and the assessment period is five years, and those who do not reach the three-star in five years will be eliminated.
