The dwarves living in human circles in Kentan are roughly divided into these types. They either enlisted in the army and ate the emperor's rations, or went to the aristocratic mansions to work as janitors or bodyguards, or they lived on the streets and became hate hooligans and ruffians. All their tricky tricks are not recognized by the terrestrial humans, and the decay of their underground society has made them abandon themselves even more, and the entire race of the dwarves has lost their direction and motivation to move forward, and has become a small isolated boat floating in the vast ocean.

Among the reinforcements that General Raeder received this time were some dwarves with short stature and extremely strong builds. In order to enhance the combat effectiveness of these foreign races, they were specially organized together.

Of course, there are still some outstanding figures among the dwarves who have finally gained some fame and recognition after making ten times more efforts than ordinary humans.

On the continent of Bodi, everyone believes that the dwarves have a disdain and contempt for all kinds of magic. This is certainly true, but some dwarves who are not in their right minds, or who are particularly curious and creative, have taken a different path and acted as human alchemists. They do not seek to perform magic on their own, but use a variety of strange utensils and elements in nature to harmonize, and constantly test and develop many alchemy bottles with different effects in ordinary times.

They complement the people of Kentan, as the magic they cast instantly can be used to create all sorts of unexpected effects thanks to the alchemy bottles they have made. These bottles can enhance magic, as well as alter its properties and area of effect. In the entire Tambolance Empire, it is estimated that only Kentan is the only one that can use dwarves so much, after all, its geographical environment and historical conditions determine the role that dwarves must play in it.

The soldiers on the Mangdun Pass will of course be unable to hide their excitement when they get this help. They have been holding back for so long, and they have long wanted to kill and destroy the prestige of the Duchy of Borot.

Although Raeder himself does not know how to perform magic, he still takes the alchemy dwarf community very seriously. When the general was discussing how to attack, he specially summoned their leaders to come over and give advice together.

The name of the dwarf was very strange, it seemed to be a cross of various cultural sources, and when Raeder learned of it, he immediately laughed and said: "What a John Hammer, God is really merciful! Even if he does not believe in religion, it will not hinder the birth of John's Hammer!"

"Your Excellency, General, I was born on the surface of the earth, and my parents died in my early years, and it was a kind man who adopted me. At the time, the hammer was the symbol engraved on my back, and John was the name that the good Samaritan had given me. This John Hammer spoke more politely than his surface people, but his intonation and loud pronunciation also showed his character of neither humility nor arrogance from one side.

Raeder looked closely at the alchemist's face and nodded in satisfaction. He was most afraid of his men being too humble, because he would rather be replaced by a wolf with a bone in the back of his head than a meek and useless sheep. He is very confident in his leadership ability, and he is not afraid that others will overturn the river and the sea, but he is afraid that others will not be able to come out.

The walls of the city of Birti were not strong, the walls were not very high, and the city had just experienced a great earthquake, and everyone discussed and discussed it, and it was felt that the only thing to consider was how to fight the elite army of the Duchy of Borot.

Raeder's goal is clear, Kentan is single-handedly taking on the resources and manpower of the entire Tamborance Empire, so he must not fight recklessly and lose his precious troops. He asked his men to come up with a way to kill and injure a large number of opponents without causing serious damage to their own side. His words were actually meant for the dwarven alchemists, because only long-range magic combined with the alchemy bottle could achieve his own idea.

John Hammer understood what the general meant, and his alchemy career started early, because he was one of the lucky ones. The good Samaritan who adopted him had some deep self-knowledge of all kinds of magic, and he soon discovered the talent and abilities of the little man, so he created many good conditions and provided him with facilities for many creative experiments. After the dwarf grew up, the adoptive father asked people to open up various joints in many ways, and successfully sent John to work in the alchemy laboratory of Kentan, and John quickly stood out and became the most important head of it.

He is the youngest dwarf to run an alchemy laboratory in recent years. Duke Kentan's inherently meritocratic nature, coupled with the fact that he was about to raise the flag against Emperor Deliotiot, further encouraged him to cherish the real talents available.

John Hammer responded to Raeder in this way, he looked at the map, and said with a clear eye: "Your Excellency, my lords, the terrain on this side of our Mangdun Pass is truly untouchable, and if you go a little east, it will immediately become open. According to this diagram, the army of the Duchy of Borot should have been roughly encircled around the outer circle of the city of Birti, while the western side of the city was extraordinarily larger, gathering almost all the elites. This is an approach that takes into account the overall situation and is in line with the actual situation. As His Excellency has just mentioned, the old Duke of Borot was murdered by a mob in the imperial capital of Siza, and the new heir was far away in the city of Solo because he wanted to do his filial piety. In this way, the army of the Duchy of Borot outside the city of Birti was actually in a state of leaderlessness. Their military power must have been in the hands of a new duke's most trusted man. What we need to do now is not to think about how to fight their armies hand-to-hand, nor should we imagine that we can end the war with a little magic and alchemy bottles......"

"So, surely you need to stir up and divide the two vipers together?" said Raeder, cheerfully.

"Your Excellency General is right, but if you want to implement it, you have to find some reasons to really play a role. ”

Reddell habitually touched his nose as he paced and dangled around the map table. Some of the people on the side talked to each other, and some pondered alone, and they knew the temperament of this general. Raeder didn't care about the discipline of the venue, because instead of making the atmosphere stiff and dull, it was better to be lively, so that people could fully use their brains and bring out their real ideas.

The buzzing became louder and louder, and Raeder suddenly stood still, slapped his forehead with his right hand, and asked everyone present in a loud voice: "Who is the closest person to the old Duke of Borot?"

Everyone looked at each other and replied for a long time: "The new heir." ”

"Who else?"

"The mother of the new heir. John Hammer replied.

"Yes, the mother of the new heir, the wife of the old Duke Borot!" Raeder triumphed, "Emperor Deliot's ambition to split the various principalities within the empire has long been known, and there have been some precedents. This time, the prince of Borot brought the elite of the entire duchy all the way here, not because of his loyalty to the emperor, but because of his extreme distrust of Deliot. I had wondered why they were so reluctant to move forward with such a large army, because they were afraid of the harsh terrain of our reckless pass? No, it was just an excuse. They had tried to attack the pass, but they were unsuccessful, and there was no movement after that. Are they scared? Of course not. The son of Borot was clearly in a state of judging the situation, and our informants had already heard that he had not only emptied the whole Duchy of Borot but also his own mother. What does this mean? Obviously, it is to fight against the water, waiting for the emperor's possible turn of face at any time. ”

When Raeder said this, he took a sip of water and moistened his throat, and one of his men said, "Does Your Excellency General mean that we can turn them around?"

"I don't think Your Excellency the General meant that, or at least it's too early to talk about it. The dwarven alchemist said from the side.

Raeder looked around at the group, touched his nose twice, and continued, "I think so. The son of Borot used the golden cicada to pull the army that was originally exposed to the emperor's tiger jaws to the city of Birti in the western frontier of the empire, which was a strategic shift, in order to preserve and continue his weight in the struggle against the emperor. They then took over the magpie's nest and kept the city of Bilti in the kingdom of Destinie firmly under their control. They were far from their homes and desperately needed a base to garrison and stabilize their morale. Surrounded by mountains in the western part of the empire, it was the best place to rebel against the emperor. The water without a source is a tree without roots, which is bound to be destroyed, and our Duchy of Kentan happens to occupy a favorable position. ”

"Your Excellency General, I don't know anything about it, and I want to ask you a thing or two. The dwarven alchemist suddenly interjected, and instead of making Raeder angry, his actions had earned the general's respect.

Raeder said generously, "Please speak." ”

"In this case, then the army of the Duchy of Borot should spare no manpower to quickly capture Mangdunkou, and then go straight to the Yellow Dragon to wipe out our Kentan Kingdom in one fell swoop, why are they willing to stay outside the small city of Birti, eat and wait for death?"

"There is a priority in everything. Although Emperor Defiot wanted to take the Duchy of Borot under the knife, his wishful thinking now was to make the two of us kill each other, so that he could benefit from the future. The son of Borot apparently saw this sinister intention, so he made a plan, and firmly fastened the big hat of exterminating the rebels on his head, while sitting firmly on the Diaoyu Tai and watching the actions of the emperor's side. Although the Duchy of Borot was in turmoil, the Emperor could not just go back on his word and stab the butt of the minister who had just been sent out to exterminate the so-called rebels. As long as the new heir has the banner of exterminating the rebels, he can ensure temporary safety. ”

"Your Excellency, what kind of variable is the death of the old Duke Borot?"

"Obviously, the sinister and cunning Emperor Deliot must have played a key role in this, but it also gives us an opportunity. His Majesty the Emperor was so anxious and reckless to wipe out an important minister that he would never have foreseen in his own making. I expected that the surviving person would be kept in the dark by his cronies, and would not know that his husband had died. And this gives us the opportunity to sow discord!"

"Once the person who actually holds the military power has a conflict with the old lady, it will definitely shake their military morale, and then it will be our real chance to attack. The dwarven alchemist nodded knowingly.
