Fifteen thousand goblin mercenaries is definitely a huge number, and even the goblin rich man who owns two cities is difficult to raise all at once, so these mercenaries will eventually be delivered in five batches. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The first batch of two thousand musketeers, Xiao Yi, directly asked Rivigaz to pull them to Stormwind City, and now that the port of Stormwind City is in the hands of Angel City, instead of pulling the mercenaries to Angel City first and crossing the Western Wilderness to reach the Elwin Forest, it is better to let them go to Stormwind City directly.

As for whether you will encounter the orc navy at sea? It's not a problem at all! Because Xiao Yi pays for the cost of transporting troops, as long as he gives enough money, let alone send people to the port controlled by Xiao Yi, even if Stormwind City is still in the hands of the orcs, these goblins dare to set up a ship to help you land on the beach!

After arranging the mercenary affairs, Xiao Yi began to plan for the next trip to the Valley of Thorns, trolls are no better than goblins, and the jungle of the Valley of Thorns is not a treasure bay.

Goblins, though cunning and wealth-conscious, have at least a thriving civilization, and after the contract is made, they will keep their promises very much, but trolls are different, these guys are real cannibals!

There are many people who think that it is impossible for trolls to live in peace with humans, and it is also because of the cannibalistic customs of trolls, which may not exist among trolls, but in the eyes of other intelligent races, especially the objects that are eaten, humans, this is definitely a representative of barbarism.

In fact, do trolls really have to eat to do it? The answer, of course, is no, in their eyes, there is no difference between human beings and pigs, horses, cattle and sheep, they are just meat, and there is only one reason that really prompts them to eat people, that is, food shortage!

Yes, even in the tropical jungle of Thorn Valley, the trolls are still facing food shortages.

They did not learn how to cultivate the land, and lived entirely by hunting, living on the wild fruits they gathered from the jungle and the prey they hunted, and they did not care what race they were of as long as they could eat them.

At least Xiao Yi hadn't heard of it, his troll guards had nothing to do in the army, they drank bean soup and nibbled on bread and were still very satisfied.

The lack of enough food is also the biggest problem with the small number of trolls nowadays, you must know that the regeneration ability of trolls, as well as their strong adaptability, can be called Azeroth's small powerhouse, just like that, they have always been scarce, and several trolls have almost been wiped out by other races!

Therefore, Xiao Yi believes that as long as the trolls are provided with enough food, they are likely to give up the custom of cannibalism, and these savage creatures are much easier to convince them to form an alliance with him than cunning goblins!

What's more, Xiao Yi still has a troll as a guide, as long as he can sit down and negotiate with the troll smoothly, the rest is easy to say, for a group of bitter haha who can't even eat enough, the temptation of food is definitely not small.

Originally, Xiao Yi felt that he was sure of subduing the trolls, but for such an ignorant race, he was recommended by an acquaintance, and then he was stunned directly with a benefit, and the rest was to sit back and wait for the trolls to bow down.

But the goblin diplomacy gave Xiao Yi a blow to the head, the goblin hooked up with the orcs in World War II, isn't the troll? The goblins are a little better, it's just a venture capital, and the Amani troll has joined the tribe directly!

Although they are not the same as those of Thorn Valley, they are all part of the jungle trolls anyway, and now the leader of the Amani trolls, Zurkin, is the greatest hero of the troll clan!

What Xiao Yi is worried about now is that he will recruit the trolls of Thorn Valley by the time of the time, and face the trolls of the orcs on the battlefield......

This kind of possibility is not nothing! So before heading to the Valley of Thorns, Xiao Yi felt that it was better to learn about the trolls here.

Zulde, a skull-splitting troll who claims to be from Zumawi, was formerly the leader of the Ranger squad of the First Legion of the City of Angels, and is now the captain of Xiao Yi's troll guard, commanding 8 trolls. Five of them, like him, were from the Skull Splitting Clan, and the remaining three were blood-topped trolls from Zukunda.

"Your Lord, you're looking for me." After receiving Xiao Yi's summons, Zuerde quickly came to Xiao Yi's room and bowed to Xiao Yi on one knee.

"Yes, my captain of the guard, I have something to ask you." Xiao Yi pointed to the cushion not far away, motioning for him to sit down and speak: "I want to know which clan the trolls in the Valley of Thorns are from, what their relationship is, and tell me everything you know." ”

"Yes, my lord!" Zulde was very respectful, although Xiao Yi's army was not the strongest in combat, but the treatment was absolutely first-class, the high commission, the well-made equipment, and the abundant food all made this troll who had been wandering the jungle since he was a child and had seen no more than silver coins in awe.

Maybe he was organizing the language, maybe he didn't know where to start, it took a long time for Zulde to slowly speak: "There are not many troll clans in the Valley of Thorns, there are only three races, among which the more powerful ones are the blood-topped trolls who occupy Zukunda, the skull-splitting trolls who occupy Zumawi, that is, my clan, and the Gulabash trolls who were expelled by the blood-topped trolls, among which the blood-topped trolls have the largest number, followed by my tribe, and the Gulabash trolls have the least number, and they can only survive in the jungle now. ”

"Three Trolls ......" Xiao Yi's brows furrowed, he originally thought that the trolls in Thorn Valley were all jungle trolls, who knew that these trolls were still so fine, Xiao Yi thought for a long time before asking:

"How's your relationship?"

If the relationship between these three trolls is on the same footing, then Xiao Yi will definitely not be able to recruit all of them, from Zurde's words just now, the blood-topped trolls seem to have expelled the Gulabash trolls, and it is obvious that their relationship is not good.

Sure enough, after hearing Xiao Yi's question, Zurd said: "Our relationship is not good, my lord, the blood-topped trolls are warlike and wary of any outsiders, they guard their holy relics, a crystal mine, even other troll races are difficult to gain their trust. ”

"To this end, they also expelled the original owner of Zukunda, the Gulabash Troll, and since then, there has been a dispute between the Gulabash Troll and the Bloodtop Troll."

After staying with humans for a long time, Zurd learned some euphemistic words, what is the dispute between the blood-topped trolls and the Gulabash trolls, and the two sides will fight dog-brains whenever they have the opportunity, one side is the Gulabash troll who wants to reclaim his homeland, and the other is the blood-topped troll who swears to defend the holy relics.

"What about your race? Skull Clan? Xiao Yi recited these transliterated words with some difficulty.

"My clan has taken over Zumawi, which was originally the territory of the blood-topped trolls, but they seem to be a little overwhelmed by the fact that they have taken Zukunda into their pockets." Zuld said with a shrug of his shoulders.

Scratching his head fiercely, Xiao Yi has numb claws, and it is not pleasing to anyone who looks at this group of trolls, the most snobbish blood-topped trolls drove away the increasingly scarce Gulabash trolls and occupied other people's territory, while the skull-splitting trolls took advantage of the emptiness of people's troops and dug out the lair of blood-topped trolls......

"Where's the Bloodtop Troll? And where are the skull-splitting trolls? "It's a little powerless to complain that there aren't many trolls in Thorn Valley, it's far worse than the Amani trolls in Lordaeron, and they can still fight to death. Xiao Yi spread out the map he had bought from the goblin rich man and showed it to Zurde.

After looking at the map for a long time, Zurd pointed to the mountains northeast of Treasure Bay, a place marked with the ruins of crystal ore veins, and said, "This is Zumawi, and my tribe is gathered around here." ”

Then he pointed to the northwest corner of the top of the Valley of Thorns, near the edge of the mountains of the Twilight Forest and the Western Wilderness, and said, "The blood-capped trolls of Zukunda, who guard the passages here, and collect money from passing merchants, and Zudanya are also their territory. ”

Ignoring Zulde's sour tone, Xiao Yi was very surprised: "Trolls still know how to collect tolls!" ”

In his impression, except for the one who joined the tribe, no matter what kind of thing it was, it was all the goods that pounced on people when they saw them, and it was hard to imagine that the trolls were guarding the roadblocks and collecting tolls.

"What about the Gulabash trolls?" Xiao Yi asked, at present, it seems that if you win over the blood-top troll, then you will have to be the enemy of the other two trolls, if you give up the blood-top troll, you should be able to diplomacy the two troll races, after all, the skull splitting and Gulabash have no direct stake.

"Here, Balar is now the habitat of the Gulabash trolls." Zulde pointed to a short distance from Zukunda, where the goblin map marked the shores of the Reef Sea.

Looking at the map, Xiao Yi thought about how to choose, according to Zurde, the personality of the blood-top trolls is not good, xenophobia, crazy, superstitious worship, and have a certain income, although now they must be cut off because of the mutations in the twilight forest, but they are definitely relatively wealthy, which means that the diplomatic difficulty of the blood-top trolls has greatly increased.

Of course, Xiao Yi will not believe it based on Zurde's words, there are also trolls from the blood top clan in his team, they don't seem to be as paranoid as Zurd said, it may be because Zurde's birth made him deliberately slander the blood top trolls.

And the number of skull-splitting trolls is smaller than that of the blood-topped trolls, but they also have a place, and Zulde does not brag about his clan, but Xiao Yi is not so optimistic about them.

Because they occupy the homeland of the blood-topped trolls, the blood-topped trolls will definitely not give up, and it is inevitable to send troops to fight, but the blood-topped trolls are also at war with the Gulabash trolls, even if the Gulabash trolls have a small population, but the two dozen have not been able to deal with the blood-topped trolls, from Xiao Yi's point of view, the combat effectiveness of this tribe is not very good.

"Okay, I know, you go first." Xiao Yi waved his hand with a headache, the situation between the trolls in Thorn Valley was much more complicated than he thought, which gave him a great headache.
