Chapter Twenty-Five: The Barbarian's Dilemma
"Yes, Big Boss." The butler smiled and said to Norma, "Second Leader, can you let our people bring in the gifts?" ”
Norma nodded, and walked out of the tent, and after a while, a group of barbarian warriors carried large wooden boxes into the "chief's house".
The wooden crates were heavy, and even the sturdy barbarian warriors had some difficulty holding the large wooden crates.
"Second Boss, you can open one." The butler said to Norma.
Norma stepped forward and kicked open the lid of a wooden box, revealing a box of white fine salt, like white beads.
Norma gasped, her eyes lit up, she grabbed a little and put it in her mouth, and nodded excitedly to the big leader.
"You can tell us about your purpose." The big leader retracted his gaze and looked at the old butler and said, the barbarians don't have much productivity, so they don't know anything but hunting, and every year they go to the human city to buy a lot of things, and salt and weapons are the key. (Of course, it's also relative, some large barbarian tribes will have some simple manual production.) )
"Big Boss, we don't have any purpose, we just want to settle the conflict with you and become allies, after all, we have a common enemy." The housekeeper said with a smile: "Our young master also specially explained that I brought you a hundred sets of weapons and armor, which are all gifts from us. ”
The butler asked Norma to open the other chests, and the swarthy weapons and armor made the barbarian warriors' eyes shine one by one, for the barbarian warriors, weapons and armor were their brothers and relatives.
The big leader, who could not sit still, stood up, walked over, and picked up an axe. These are all weapons and armor that Qin Feng asked the craftsmen to urgently make according to the size of the barbarians, although they are very rough, but in the eyes of the barbarians, these rough things are indeed so cute.
The big boss looked at the butler, and then looked at the things in his hand, and his demeanor was a little difficult.
Both humans and dwarves have always had the same view of barbarians, and they have always regarded barbarians as potential enemies, so they have always been very strict about weapons and the like. It's not like the big bosses haven't bought weapons from humans before, but even if they can buy them, it's only those who sell iron, and their weapons are of uneven quality, and the quantity is very small, and it's impossible to buy armor. But is the real purpose of their real purpose at such a great cost just because their enemies are also orcs?
He is not a fool to be a big boss.
"I know what your concerns are, big boss, trust us, we mean nothing else." The butler seemed to see the big leader's concerns, and explained, "The orcs have now occupied the entire Northland, and in this area, except for our Bull Town, there is only your tribe within the range of the orcs' attack. Winter may not be a war for the time being, but in the coming year, our days will definitely not be easy. We in Boer have made a feud with the orcs, so we just want to have allies in the north to help us share the pressure of the orcs. ”
"I'm afraid it won't be until next year, I guess the orcs will come over in a few days." At this point, Siricorn suddenly interjected.
"What do you mean, Sirigon, that the orcs will attack Boer again in the near future?" The housekeeper was shocked and hurriedly asked.
"It's not Boole, it's here." Siricorn looked up at the big boss and Norma and said.
The old butler breathed a sigh of relief, but Norma couldn't believe it, and stepped forward and asked, "How is it possible, now that winter has come, it is impossible for the orcs to mobilize the army at this time?" ”
The big boss looked at Siricorn in the same way.
"I think you've forgotten about Fort York!" Siricorn smiled and explained, "Fort York is not far from the bottom of the mountain, so why do you think the orcs don't use their troops in the winter at such a short distance?" And don't you notice that it's been a little too quiet lately? ”
Qin Feng drew many maps through the systematic maps, and all the military governors in the entire territory had seen these maps, and Xiruigang was no exception. The Barbarian Cottage is so close to Fort York that it only takes half a day to get here. And at the gates, Norma had been heard saying that everything seemed quiet except for the stupid werewolf who had come closer. Isn't that surprising? You must know that Norma said that the orcs have attacked this place three times, so why is it so quiet now, unless they want to reorganize their forces to take this place at once.
"Indeed, it seems to have been a little too quiet lately." Norma had actually believed eight points, and he looked at the big boss and said, "That stupid werewolf is probably the last temptation, whether the temptation can succeed." If we succeed in assassinating the big boss and the tribe is in civil strife, it will be easier for them to attack us, and if they don't, it will turn into a strong attack. ”
Sirigon's heart suddenly looked up to this second master, no wonder he would become the second master, this keen insight even many humans do not necessarily have.
"He. . . ......" The big boss scolded angrily, if this human was Siregon said this, he would still be suspicious, but Norma said this, he couldn't believe it. Although he is the big leader, he has always attached great importance to this smart second master, and the first few times the orcs attacked the cottage were discovered by this second master in advance.
"Humans, you should know when the orcs will come." The big boss glared at Syrigon, and asked loudly.
"I can't say when, if it's less, it's a few days, and if it's more, it's possible for half a month." Siricorn looked at the big boss, paused and said, "I hope you can let us go." ”
"Why, I want to run away." The big leader looked at Ciriglion with a sneer, and did not hide his disdain: "Humans are really human, cowardly as rats, and they still want to form an alliance with us like this?" ”
Norma also looked at the two of them with resentment, and suddenly thought in her heart that maybe it was right to kill these humans in the first place.
"Of course not, I just want to send someone to inform the Baron, and we'll stay here." "Perhaps in your past, humans were timid and emaciated, but that doesn't include us in Bull Town. There may be those in our town who are afraid of death, but there are no fears of going to war, and there are no abandonment of comrades. ”
"Haha......" The big boss laughed and stepped forward and patted Cirigon's shoulder: "Although I don't know what kind of baron you are, I have made up your friend." ”
"I'm a little curious about their baron," Norma laughed, retracting the idea.
"Haha....... after defeating the orcs, I'll go to Bull to meet the baron in person, maybe we'll be good friends." The big boss laughed too.
Sirigon's face remained unchanged, but secretly he twisted his shoulders, the big leader's hand was so strong, he felt that his shoulder was about to break?
