Chapter Forty-Three: The Visit
Macrory laughed: "Is anyone willing to stay as an 'ally'?" You can enjoy everything here, including food, dormitories, wine, entertainment, and the freedom to leave whenever you want! But to stay, you will need to do your best to help build and defend this place, and to obey the reasonable commands of Lord Sam. ”
"Yes, I mean reasonable. If you are under any unreasonable command, or any oppression, come to me! I, Macro, will fight for your rights and interests even if I give you this life! ”
"Trust me! I am with you, and so is life and death! ”
Makri was as firm as iron, looking at the five hundred barbarians.
Gradually, the crowd began to stir up, began to discuss, and the sound fell on Macri's ears, he looked calm on the surface, but he was very apprehensive inside.
It was his first job, and he didn't want to disappoint Master Sam.
Eventually, someone in the crowd shouted, "Master Macray! Can we bring the family here? ”
"Yes, yes!"
"There are hundreds of people in our tribe, who can join the army in the prime of life, and the elderly can also help with some chores."
Voices full of hope came.
Makri said excitedly: "Of course you can!" ”
In this way, five hundred barbarians went back to their home tribes overnight, and brought with them a total of more than three thousand men, but most of them were old men or children, and only three or four hundred were able to join the army.
Improvise, a brigade of a thousand barbarians appeared.
Originally, Gulo Red was pleasantly surprised and rushed to be the captain of this barbarian team.
Makri stopped him and said, "No. ”
Gullo Red scolded: "What are you, why do you say you can't." ”
Makrui shook his head and said, "Let them democratically elect the captain, and they will obey!" You are Lord Sam's number one general, and if you run for election again, people will think that Lord Sam is manipulating in disguise, which is dictatorship, not an alliance. ”
"Humph!" Gullo Red said, "I'll ask Lord Sam. ”
Later, when Chen Hao heard this, he was furious and said: "You are not allowed to interfere in anything with Mark Rui, understand!" That's an order. ”
Gullo Red came out dejected.
Later, through a democratic vote in the morning, the captain of the thousand-man barbarian squad was appointed by a more respected Viku "Duojing".
Chen Hao learned the news, put on a solemn dress, walked over, shook hands with Duo Jing in person, and said meaningfully: "Welcome, my ally!" I'm going to give you my back. ”
Duo Jing is a warrior in his fifties, his body is still very strong, he holds a spear in his hand, his face is difficult to hide his excitement, and he said in a loud voice: "Viku people, they will protect the backs of their allies with their lives!" ”
"Hmm!" Chen Hao nodded and said, "I'm going to the Black Ogre Tribe to seek their alliance cooperation, my ally, can you accompany me?" ”
"That's nature!" Duojing held his spear aloft.
In this way, Chen Hao prepared his things, led Makrui, Gurro Hong, Duojing, and a thousand barbarians, and set off towards the black ogre tribe.
Before leaving, Chen Hao found Parham and said, "I'm not at home, Goertek, this kid must make small moves, be careful, don't let him control our cadres." ”
Parham was still playing chess with his left hand and his right hand, and said coldly: "He doesn't dare to mess around." ”
After explaining everything, Chen Hao set off.
After walking a long way and resting halfway, Makrui came to Chen Hao.
Chen Hao handed him a flying Lanzhou.
Macroy lit a cigarette very well and swallowed it, these days thanks to Chen Hao, he has become a novice smoker.
"I have something to tell you, Lord Sam." Makri took a puff of his flue.
"You say."
"I don't know, Lord Sam, if you know anything about ogre history."
"Nope."
Macry's face was a little ugly, so he said: "The ogre is a big family, and during its prosperity, there were three or four million people. A thousand years ago, they were active in the borders of the Konoe Kingdom. ”
"Really?" Chen Hao didn't believe it.
Ogre is a creature that is basically absent in the Konoe Kingdom.
"Absolutely."
Makri slowly said the historical problem: "Because they are ferocious and easy to kill, they often use us humans as food, so they are called 'ogres', and it is for this reason that the king of the guards issued a slaughter order and sent 300,000 elite soldiers to kill the ogres, and then killed them to four or five hundred thousand people, and they were forced to move to the kingdom of natural disasters in order to preserve their bloodline......"
Chen Hao's expression also began to change drastically, and he said in a trembling voice: "You mean, the ogre is a feud with us, right?" ”
"Hmm!" "They hate us humans very much, and when they see them, they will hunt them down and kill them, and they want to eat them alive. ”
"Why didn't you tell me this sooner!" Chen Hao said urgently.
There is such a historical problem, and it is too difficult to form an alliance with the black ogre.
"Lord Sam, don't worry......" Makrui said with deep meaning in his eyes, "This is an opportunity. ”
Chen Hao realized Macray's intentions and frowned: "You want to resolve this thousand-year-old contradiction? ”
"It's not going to be resolved, let's buffer it......" Makrui smiled bitterly: "Actually, there are many subspecies branches in ogres, all of which are very kind. ”
"Have you ever spent time with them?"
Makrui's eyes flashed with memories, as if he had returned to a long, long time ago, he lowered his head and said nostalgically: "Actually, when I was a child...... I had an ogre. ”
"What!" Chen Hao was taken aback.
"To be precise...... It's two, it's a blue ogre with two heads. Macroy smiled, and there was warmth between his words.
"And now? Where did they go? ”
"Forget it...... Don't mention it. Makri looked a little gloomy.
……
……
There was nothing to say all the way, and that night, Chen Hao and the others rushed to the territory of the black ogre tribe.
"Look!" Makri pointed to a large pile of animal bones neatly stacked on the ground, and said, "This is the ogre's territory mark, and across this white bone, it is their territory." ”
"It's a warning." Dokin came over on a white horse and explained, "Ogres have a strong sense of territory and don't allow others to break in. ”
Chen Hao said: "In this case, it would be good for the large army to stop and send someone in to communicate." ”
Makri said, "I'll go." ”
"Nope! Go for it, old man. Duo Jing jumped down from his horse and said with a straight expression: "Ogre is irritable by nature, and will do it if he disagrees, Mr. Macri, you have no power to protect yourself, I am afraid that something will happen." ”
Chen Hao also nodded in approval, don't look at Duo Jing in his fifties, but he is also a level 10 spearman, experienced in a hundred battles, even if the conversation collapses after entering, he can escape.
But no one thought that Makrui was very insistent: "I'll go!" I understand ogre customs and etiquette, and I am proficient in ogre language, so it is easy to communicate, after all, the first time to communicate, it is very important. ”
Duojing said: "This ......"
Chen Hao hesitated for a moment, and had no choice but to say, "Yes!" But you bring a flare, and if something happens, you immediately release the flare, and we will break in and save you. ”
Makri took the flare pistol, nodded and said, "Leave everything to me!" Don't break in until I come out, as it will be seen as a provocation by the ogre, and it will cause war. ”
"Don't worry."
Makrui took a deep breath, stepped in, kept walking, walked seven or eight hundred meters, and only stopped when Chen Hao and the others couldn't see themselves.
He threw away the flare pistol, then undressed, leaving only a long-prepared hide to wrap around his lower body.
After doing this, he continued to walk, walking about five hundred meters, and finally saw the simple tents, surrounded by torches, and the ogre warriors standing guard.
"It's human!" One of the ogres screamed.
