Chapter Ninety-Seven: It's Not About Money

[The first kill of 200 book coins in the commemorative book city - for the winner Tian Qiujia]

The Lord of the Silver Hammer secretly said in his heart: Barbarians are barbarians and do not know the art of war at all.

Since we knew the enemy's movements in advance, we should have made preparations in advance, and even if we could not lay troops in ambush, we had to destroy mountain roads and bridges, and delay the enemy's march and transport baggage.

However, instead of arranging in the four treacherous places along the road, the barbarians set up a line at the entrance to the plateau.

Assertive?

I guess I'm arrogant!

Didn't they know that there were cavalry in the Silver Hammer Collar?

Or did the mountain giants give them the confidence to be confused?

But at this moment, a ball of golden light shone brightly.

The Silver Hammer Lord was secretly speechless, because at the end of his line of sight stood 12 huge figures like mountains, and the most upright of them was covered with gold.

You can't go wrong!

This is the light of gold, no, more brilliant, more dazzling and more dazzling than gold coins.

What a luxury the barbarian was, to use gold to make a mantle for the mountain giants!

Or is it that the gold originally belonged to the mountain giants?

Damn, the spies missed such important information!

However, it doesn't matter, heresy worth tens of thousands of catties of gold, I believe those people will be very interested!

"Prepare for battle!"

The Silver Hammer Lord's army moved in an instant.

1,000 heavy infantry picked up their weapons and equipment from the camel beasts and baggage carts, put them on their bodies, pulled down their masks and lined up in a neat queue, like a steel barrier, standing at the front of the array.

The archers checked their weapons, tightened their bowstrings, wet their tail feathers, and the hands of the crossbowmen with dragon hunting crossbows clicked, and the sound of gears and steel balls joined together, and the cold sound of steel burned to the hearts of the people.

No creature can withstand a salvo from a dragon hunting crossbow, and if there is, then another one.

The cavalry began to clamp their horses' bellies and trotted to the infantry flanks. Although he runs slowly, he is accumulating strength with every step, like a spring that is constantly compressing, waiting for the ultimate explosion.

The hoplites made a way, and the Silver Hammer Lord walked to the front with dozens of guards.

He has to observe the enemy up close and look for the enemy's flaws.

He was going to lead the charge and smash a bloody path with the silver hammer in his hand.

With the sonorous slogan, the barbarians on the opposite side also moved.

The Silver Hammer Lord didn't understand what the short order was, but he saw that the barbarian army's originally chaotic procession instantly became neat and orderly, as if it were a rectangle.

With another short command, the barbarian army began to march slowly, the sound of footsteps, which at first seemed disorganized, but in a matter of seconds it became uniform, and thousands of people stepped out and down at the same time.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

Compared to this pace, the heavy footsteps of the mountain giants were almost inaudible.

Hiss......

The Silver Hammer Lord changed in shock, and the veterans behind him also showed solemn expressions.

This is clearly an iron discipline.

The Lord of the Silver Hammer knew how difficult it was to develop this kind of discipline, and even the army under his command had barely taken on the appearance of a soldier after more than three years of training.

That's it, still on the basis of the veterans left by my grandfather and father, if I trained a group of farmers from scratch, I couldn't do it without ten years of hard work.

Humanity in the self-proclaimed civilized world is still so long, let alone barbarians.

"It's me who is careless!" Lord Silverhammer gripped the hammer, "They want to fight me in a dignified battle, crush us from the frontal battlefield, and completely break our courage to go north." ”

Behind the Silver Hammer Lord, a man in a blue hood rode forward.

"Rest assured, we won't let those filthy beasts get their wish! I'll help you convince the mountain giants to quit the fight. ”

……

"System, what kind of profession is that one in the blue hooded robe? Do you have any information? ”

"Master, that person's mental power is very strong, and there are surging energy particles around him, if nothing else, he should be a magician specializing in fire."

"If you catch him, can you sacrifice the magic skill book?"

"Unless they are converted, it should be difficult."

"How do you know if you don't try! Send a mission to Tamil. ”

Soon, the two armies stopped, forming a queue a stone's throw away.

The Tamils came out of the crowd, and although they were only on foot, they were more imposing than the Silver Hammer Lord on horseback.

Hearing the "ding" sound in his head, Tamil looked at the person beside the Silver Hammer Lord with a strange gaze, because the system lord god named her to capture her alive.

Well, she!

Could it be that the main god of the system wants to ......

She hurried forward, persuading in a language that the mountain giants could understand.

"Honorable Chief, Lord Silverhammer has no intention of making your enemies, and I hope that you and your people will not interfere in the next battle. To this end, we are willing to present 40 mountain spirits. ”

As soon as the words fell, dozens of people came forward with heavy boxes, opened the lid of the box, and pieces of jade with a length and width of one meter appeared.

Unlike the magic crystal, the energy in the mountain spirit and earth crystals is scarce and difficult to be absorbed by humans, so these things are basically carved stones, which are nothing but beautiful.

However, the exception is the Mountain Giants!

This thing is like a great tonic for the mountain giants, it is an important resource for them to recover from injuries and improve their strength, and the more advanced the spirit, the better.

Mountain giants spend their lives searching for and exploring the spirit of the mountains and the crystallization of the earth, and rarely enter the human world. Those who make waves in the human world are often those who have no hope of being promoted and give up on themselves.

Of course, there are also some human lords who use mountain spirits and earth crystals to lure mountain giants, and some lords with high-quality spirit veins can recruit a large number of mountain giants as their private army.

In the eyes of the Silver Hammer Lord, the barbarians on the other side used resources to lure the mountain giants to work.

However, when it comes to competing for resources, can barbarians compare to humans in the civilized world?

"If you, Chief, are willing to defect and fight for us, in addition to these 40, each of you will be able to get 1 Mountain Spirit of the same size and quality every month from now on."

Unmoved, the mountain giants looked at the hooded man with strange eyes.

Optimus Prime also replied in a voice that the other party could understand, "It's not a matter of spirits. ”

The hooded people were disdainful in their hearts, and the simple mountain giants had actually learned to bargain, and they were sitting on the ground.

As for these low-level mountain giants in front of them, at other times, a single spirit can recruit several.

"2 per person per month!"

Optimus Prime shook his head, "It's not much. ”

"3, that's my bottom line! Don't think you're scared of your mountain giants. ”

After saying that, the hooded man turned around, and the Silver Hammer Lord immediately nodded, and shouted loudly: "Dragon Hunting Crossbow, prepare!" ”

Wow!

A hundred dragon hunting crossbows were raised at the same time, locking onto Optimus Prime from afarβ€”a distance that wasn't enough, but a deterrent.

Optimus Prime sighed helplessly, and then raised his hand to pull off the big gold chain on his body, "Bury the love family, prepare!" ”
