Chapter 60 Ordered in Danger

After a hard-fought battle, the orc army in the first battle left behind a large number of corpses and retreated.

When they attacked again, there was no more desperate charge. Instead, they dig a lot of traps beforehand and set fire to drive the treants away.

Fire is the natural nemesis of the tree people, and the fear of fire makes the tree people pull out the roots and flee quickly. The rapid movement caused a lot of damage to the Treants, and coupled with the traps and orc attacks along the way, the fleeing Treants died in large numbers. Originally, there were less than a hundred of more than 1,000 trees after escaping into the elven forest, and they were almost wiped out.

Kyle finally said: "The orcs and the treemen have become mortal enemies, and the elves have also started a war with the orcs because of the protection of the treemen, fortunately, with the protection of the elven forest, the orcs can't get in, but I heard that the battle at sea is very unfavorable to the elves, and now the treemen are also preparing weapons and waiting for the orcs to break through the elves' coastal defenses, and block the landing of the orcs together." ”

It turns out that the war between the elves and the orcs started because of the tree people, and there is no invincible force but no matching movement speed, which is really an extreme race. However, the combination of the Treants and the Elves, a short-range sword defense, and a bow and arrow shooting, is a perfect match for defensive battles.

Gangzi learned more about the situation of the tree people, and the sky gradually darkened, and Bob's tardiness caused the dwarves to be dissatisfied.

"Kyle, you shouldn't send the Grey Worm to buy alcohol, he'll definitely be back when he's full at the Elven Distillery."

"No, the Grey Worm must be drunk, our wine needs to wait until tomorrow, the Grey Worm is an alcoholic, he must have deliberately lost to us, so that he would be the first to drink."

"That's right, the gray worm must have lost on purpose, we all fell for him, I'm going to go and come back to him."

"No, if you go, we won't see any wine until tomorrow. I should go, I am the most honest dwarf. ”

"I'll ......"

As the dwarves scrambled to find Bob, Bob staggered through the courtyard gate with a cart of wine barrels.

"Brothers, here comes the wine." With that, Bob fell to the ground and got drunk.

Seeing a cart of wine, the dwarves did not come forward to scramble, because there was a group of elves who walked in after Bob.

"Oh no, the elf is asking for wine money, Kyle, you shouldn't have asked Grey Worm to keep the finances, Joey's money can't buy so much wine, and now we owe even more."

"Shut up. Wild boar! You're the best of our group of dwarves," Kyle took out the majesty of a dwarven leader at this time, stopped the dwarves' noise, and then said to the elves, "The money Bob owes you is still in our accounts, and the dwarves will not owe money and not pay it back." ”

The elf saluted Kyle and said, "No, Chief Kyle, we happened to meet Bob at the winery when we were looking for my general, and he said that my general is a guest at your place. So we followed Bob. ”

Kyle looked at Bob who was sleeping on the ground and said, "Looks like Bob has asked you for the money to lead the way." ”

"It's just some wine, it's not anything of value."

After hearing this, Kyle turned to Gangzi and said, "It seems that they are here to find you, and they can use the Elven King's Guard to pick you up." You're supposed to be a big guy, you can't drink together today, so next time, I'm always here to welcome you. ”

It was Christol who came to find Gangzi.

Gangzi said to Kyle, "Being able to meet the dwarves is my biggest takeaway today. I'll be sure to have a drink with you all tomorrow. But he said to Christol, "Ten more cartloads of wine for my dwarven friends as a token of their gratitude for my hospitality." ”

Christol was about to say yes, but Kyle said, "No. We dwarves only drink what we have earned by our labor, and if you give us something for no reason, it is an affront to the dignity of our dwarves, and you will no longer be welcome in my cabin. ”

In contact with the dwarf, Gangzi found that the dwarf had a very upright temper, and he definitely didn't understand false politeness when he had anything to say. He said: "This is not a gift, I need to order twenty chains thirty meters long, the thickness of my arm, these ten carts of wine are my deposit for you, I hope you can finish it as soon as possible, and I hope that the deposit I pay will not delay your work." ”

When big business came to the door, Kyle's happy beard curled: "You are so generous, unlike the elves, they will only order small arrowheads, and thin swords like fish bones, they can't make money at all, only the order of the tree man can make us drink openly, and you, I already fantasize that I am swimming in the sea of wine, of course, we will never delay the delivery of this batch of chains, and after a week, I will keep all twenty chains completed in the name of a dwarf." ”

"I'm looking forward to the dwarven bouts." With that, Gangzi said goodbye to Kyle and walked towards the Elven Palace with Christol.

On the way, Christol complained, "Your Excellency, you should not go to the outskirts of the elven city without guards, you must know that we are at war with the orcs, and their scouts often go deep into the elven forest to obtain information. ”

Gangzi smiled: "I know, I know, I'm just lost, do you know what the Elf King summoned me for?" ”

"Of course, because of the naval battle with the orcs......"

Bucknar meets the Elven King and gives a brief account of what he has been away for 25 years. The emphasis is on the fact that the technology of the other world is comprehensive and advanced, and the elven kingdom is like the most uninformed natives in that world.

"What the morning glory elves have learned in a year at sea can save the elves hundreds of years of exploration, we can build an unrivaled fleet in the emerald world on the basis of the morning glory elves, we will be able to enter the deep sea to find the treasures of the lord of the sea, we can go to more distant places to find the lost people, we can even drive the fleet to the other side of the sea to see if there are also elves there."

After listening to Bucknar's explanation, the Elven King said: "After listening to your story, I feel that the world you describe is as chaotic as hell, full of tyrannical aura, contrary to our elven character of seeking peace, and I already feel that you are being affected by this aura, I see your yearning for war, your subconscious tells me that you feel that elves should rule this world, but you should understand that war only brings death and destruction. The population of our elves cannot withstand a large number of casualties. Elves should be secluded from the world and avoid getting involved in disputes between races. ”

Bucknar retorted, "There is no absolute peace in the world, and as long as we live here, it is impossible for the elves to avoid racial disputes. Just as we're at war with the Orcs right now because of the Treants, we were able to keep the Orcs out of the Elven Forest because of our bows and arrows, and I was able to wipe out the Orc fleet in the First Naval Battle because our ships were stronger than them. Escapism does not bring peace, peace must be maintained by strong force, and we can only think of peace if we drive the elven army to the royal city of the orcs. ”

Elves do not have a strict hierarchy, and any elf can speak freely in front of the elven king. However, Bucknar's radical words did make the Elven King a little embarrassed. However, the point put forward by the eye-opening Bucknar also made the Elven King irrefutable.

The Elven King looked at the sharp-edged Bucknar and suddenly felt that he was dying. In the past, the population of elves was only a few thousand, and under the pressure of survival, the elves adhered to a conservative strategy and tried not to conflict with other races, and lived a comfortable life in the elven forest. But now that the navigation technology has improved, the population of elves has increased significantly, and the elves with a population of 20,000 represent a strong force. The young elves began to be dissatisfied with the dwelling in the elven forest, and the young elves began to be enthusiastic about the exploration of the continent and the sea, making all kinds of friends and setting up all kinds of enemies.

The war with the orcs broke out because some elves wiped out the orcs who were chasing the treemen. Although the elven kingdom has been joined by the powerful treemen, it has also had to fight with the powerful orc kingdom.

Now that the morning glory elves have arrived, they have brought a more radical idea of birth, and it is not known whether the elves will rise or perish under their influence.

The Elven King pondered Bucknar's point for a moment. Then the elder said to him in a calm tone: "From your words, I see that your vision has surpassed all the elves, but I still don't think that the elven kingdom should change its previous external strategy, but we elves have no dictator, I will give you the opportunity to convince me." Before that, I would like to see you again, Gangzi, a foreigner who is so highly regarded, and I would like to hear his opinion. ”

So Gangzi walked into the elf's palace again under the leadership of Christol.

Same as last time. The elven palace hasn't changed much, but the flowers around it have become more varied. The Elven King is also so kind and wise.

"Thank you for taking care of the morning glory elf all these years, although it has only been a little over a year with you, we have waited 25 years, and this is not a short time for the elf. I know the prosperity and strength of your world through Bucknar, and I am convinced that the return of the Morning Glory Elves will bring a great leap forward in the navigation of the Elves, but I am also worried about the impact on the Elven kingdom ideologically. For example, in the war against the orcs, our original policy was to defend and keep the orcs out of the elven forest and elven sea, and after a long time, the orcs could not bear the losses caused by the war, so they would naturally stop attacking the elven kingdom. But Bucknar thinks that we should attack the orc kingdom in an all-out way, and even has the idea of attacking the orc king city, the orc kingdom has a population of 1 million, and the population of our elves is only 20,000, which is impossible in my mind, but Bucknar has a strong confidence, I can feel his source of information and you, I want to hear your opinion on this war. ”

Gangzi has learned about the war between the elves and the orcs through various aspects, and has also learned from Christol about the elven kingdom's consistent external strategy.

He didn't elaborate his point first, but asked rhetorically: "I now know that the war between the elven kingdom and the orc kingdom is stalemate on the edge of the grassland and the forest, and the battlefield on land seems to be balanced, but I want to ask you, what should you do if the orcs cut down the elven forest in large quantities, or even burn the elven forest?" Is it still the observance of the boundaries of the forest that continues to shrink inward? If the orcs use his fleet to blockade the elven sea, cutting off all external sources of information, material and the return of scattered elves in the elven kingdom, what will the elven kingdom do? The population of the orcs is increasing rapidly, and their armies and fleets will continue to grow stronger, while the elven population is not replenished and is constantly decreasing, the forests are constantly decreasing, and the supplies are constantly decreasing. At that time, when the besieged elven kingdom had to fight to the death with the orcs, you would realize what a terrible enemy you were about to face, and how stupid your decision was. ”

Gangzi's words caused the Elf King to fall into a deep shock. Now it seems that the battle is evenly matched, but in fact, it has reached the moment of life and death in the elven kingdom.

Baknar also did not expect that the elven kingdom had fallen into the crisis of possible extinction at this time, and a short journey to the other world was not enough for him to develop a long-term strategic vision, he anxiously asked Gangzi: "If the orcs really use the methods you said to deal with our elven kingdom, what should we do?" ”

The Elven King also looked at Gangzi with hope, as if he had seen the future elves surrounded by an endless orc army in the last small woods.

It's so cool to use the experience of countless ancestors to crush the wisdom of these natives, looking at the nervous two elves, Gangzi feels that he still lacks a feather fan to fit the plot of the here and now.

"As Bucknar said, hit! Wipe out the orc armies and destroy their tribes. Destroy their playgrounds, attack all the towns of the orcs, attack their royal cities, beat them so that they have no place in the emerald world, beat them and tremble when they hear the word 'elf', and beat them to pray to the elves for peace. ”

"Ah......h

The Elven King didn't expect Gangzi's words to be more radical than Bucknar's. Bucknar, on the other hand, was deeply ashamed of his "soft-heartedness" towards the orcs just now, and thus revered Gangzi even more.

At this time, Gangzi was possessed by Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi descended, ignoring the completely different gazes of the two elves, and continued to talk: "In the jade world." Elves are a high-level race, you will not be unknown in the elven forest, the outside world is very vast, and the elves will one day come out of the elven forest. Tread your footprints all over the world. What do walking elves need most? Not great archery, not bulging wallets, not slick social skills, but a powerful home country. The existence of a powerful and invincible elven kingdom will make all races respect the elves who travel abroad. If you don't want the Elven Forest to burn out one day, you don't want the Elven children to be sold into slavery, and the elven maidens are thrown into a filthy brothel. Defeat the orcs in this war, let all races know what the consequences of angering the elves are, and if you like peace, then use your force to build a peaceful emerald world. ”

It took a long time for the Elf King to come back to his senses from the shock, he looked at Gangzi who was looking at the night sky outside the door with his hands crossed on his psoas and looking at the night sky outside the door in the shape of a great man, and Bucknar who was fanatical and eager to kill the orcs now, and shook his head: "I now understand why there are so many wars in your world, what you said seems to be very reasonable, but I will definitely not let this kind of thinking spread in the Elven Kingdom, at least during my reign, the Elven Kingdom will try to avoid disputes with other races." ”

What makes sense, the novels are all written like this, the closed elf kingdom eventually declined, and owning an elf slave girl is the most upscale enjoyment of the nobility. You are a rat-eyed old elf who is really stubborn, sitting on such a powerful race, and you don't even compete for hegemony and play farming? Brother Da is merciful and prophetic to tell you in advance, and pointed you to a broad road to the overlord, you are not grateful to worship the eldest brother, but to the brother to make a subtle mockery, wasting the brother's expression.

The Elven King then said, "I will propose Claudet to the Council of Elders. Bucknar is one of the next heirs to the elven throne, and if you want to prove to me that your theory is correct, there is a good enemy in front of you to test your point, and if you can defeat the invading orcs with very little loss, I make an exception this time to agree with your strategy against the orcs, a race that slaughters other races at will will follow suit if they are not punished as they deserve. ”

Gangzi was happy in his heart, it turned out that the elf king was not unmoved by his brother's words, but he was thin-skinned and didn't want to admit it. As for using low losses to wipe out the invading orc canoe fleet, Gangzi already had a plan, and the twenty chains he ordered from the dwarves were for the orcs.

During the discussion on what to do with the orc fleet, the Elven King agreed to Bucknar's proposal to reorganize the elven fleet into the Elven Navy, and took the lead in introducing the military rank and official position system into the Elven Navy. The Elven King originally wanted to make Bucknar the first Admiral of the Elven Navy, but Bucknar resolutely refused to agree and recommended Gangzi as the Admiral of the Elven Navy.

"The stakes are high for this battle against the orc fleet, my ability to command a warship is competent, but not enough to command a fleet, I recommend Gangzi to be the elven naval admiral to be fully responsible for the sea operations against the orc kingdom, he is the strongest naval commander, whether in the emerald world or the other world, his fleet is the enemy's nightmare. As for his non-elven status, it is not a problem for the elven navy at all, and the morning glory elf will be assigned to become the captain, first mate and helmsman of each warship, and they will all resolutely carry out the orders of Lord Gangzi. ”

At Baknar's repeated requests, the Elven King finally appointed a foreigner as the first Admiral of the Elven Navy.

Gangzi did not expect that he would become the admiral of the elven navy, but the war was imminent, and the orc fleet would appear on the elven sea at any time. After receiving the appointment of the elven king, he appeared on the pier of the elf harbor the next day, and all the warships went to sea, and the brig-class sailing ships continued to train in the formation of marching in equal space and parallel with the "flying Henan".
