443. The Confederation was established

Three bottles, no, two half-height bottles, can make Furstad drink. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It wasn't until the next afternoon that Du Teng saw him again, and the old fellow had red circles under his eyes, apparently just waking up.

Also, the strength of high-strength sake is not so easy to bear. Even if a dwarf is an alcoholic, if he doesn't get used to it for a while, he will not always be able to drink more than two catties of high-altitude wine in one go.

But it has to be said that the power of wine is powerful, even beyond Du Teng's imagination.

He thought that it was a major matter related to a country and a clan, and no matter how much he loved wine, Furstad would have to weigh the pros and cons well, and Duten was even ready to offer more benefits in exchange for the assistance of the dwarves.

But who would have thought that these Humpty Dumpty people were so bold, as long as they had good wine, they were their good friends...... Of course, this range is limited to the Alliance races, such as the orcs of the tribe, and even if they take out the best wine, I am afraid that they will not be able to get their friendship.

Duten is considered to be a mutation of identity, he is the prince of a country, and Gilneth was still a member of the alliance during World War I, but later the practices of some kings of some countries were indeed quite bullying, and Gilneth broke away from the alliance in a fit of anger.

Although the dwarves are addicted to alcohol, they are not stupid, and everyone has a scale in their hearts about who is right and who is wrong, although even the wrong side has a reason to do so, but Gilneth has indeed suffered a huge loss, which no one can deny.

Although Gilneth did not get the approval of the dwarves in the future, he had to resist when he was bullied, and he broke away from the alliance on the spot, which is still very much in line with the temperament of the dwarves, or the brute hammer dwarves. Furstad felt that this was very much in line with his temper, and if it was him, he was afraid that he would come to the door directly with a sledgehammer.

It is precisely because of this relationship that Furstad has always had a good impression of Greymane. Now that Duten, Prince of Gilneth and the next heir to Greymane, has brought such a fine wine, how can he refuse? How could he bear to refuse?

Du Teng thought that it would be a few days before he could see Furstad, and even if he did, all kinds of negotiations and alliances would have to be carefully considered and discussed, and I am afraid that there would be no result in ten days and half a month. But who would have thought that after meeting Vorstad for the second time, they would agree on all the things about the alliance in just half an hour.

The requirements of the Hammer Dwarves are not high, they do not produce themselves, so they need a lot of living materials. It was originally possible to trade in exchange, but the fall of Lordaeron was also a huge blow to them. Diversion to Stormwind? The road is too far away, not to mention, and the road is not stable, the cost is too great, and the gains outweigh the losses. No matter how rich the dwarves are, they will not go crazy and lose money.

And apart from Stormwind City, looking at the entire Eastern Continent, which other force can meet the needs of the Brute Hammer Dwarves?

The High Elves are undoubtedly more distant, and the magical kingdom of Dalaran itself has to import food, and there are only four of the seven human kingdoms left. Kultiras is good, but the seaside kingdom doesn't have much land, and they also need to import food. The same goes for goblins, and these little ones are too good at trading, so that the bold dwarves are born to look down on them.

Back and forth in the selection and comparison, I am afraid that the only ones who can satisfy the Brute Hammer Dwarves are Gilneth and Ironforge.

Ironforge is a good choice, Brute Hammer and Copperbeard are originally of the same kind, and the relationship between the two sides has entered a honeymoon period after the Battle of the Three Hammers. Although the Iron Fort is located in the snow-capped woodland, the land is quite fertile, and the grain production is also good, even if it is a little difficult to supply the brute hammer, but it is not impossible.

Compared to Ironforge, Gilneth is undoubtedly a better fit.

First of all, the distance is very close, Gilneth City is only a few hundred kilometers away from Eagle's Nest Mountain, even if you count all the twists and turns, there is no doubt that it is much closer than Ironforge Fort.

Moreover, the Hillsbrad Hills are one of the main territories of mankind. Speaking of which, Lordaeron is truly worthy of being the strongest kingdom of mankind, and his country alone is equivalent to two or three other countries combined. There are more than a dozen territories under its jurisdiction, including Stratholme, Andorhar, Kelldalon, Daronshire, Talenmere, Southsea Town, Dunhold, Steinbled, Hearthvale, Seberchel, Ambermere, etc. There are also more than 10 large farms such as Soridan Farm, Barnier Farm, Agamand Mill, Darsun Farm, Firestone Farm, Gallon Farm, Mares Farm, Eva Farm, Vargan Farm, Orson Farm, Darlund Farm, Hillsbrad Farm, etc.

The fall of Lordaeron was one of the heaviest losses in human history.

However, fortunately, it is blocked by the Alterac Mountains in the north and the sea in the south, and the power of the undead has not polluted the land too much, and although the people of this land have tragically lost their country and king, their lives have not been too badly affected.

The reason why Vorstad agreed to Duten's alliance request so happily was also taken into account. Because Duten had already told him about his plans and the future direction of Gilneth.

In Du Teng's plan, the East and West Plague must definitely be taken. It was once the most important grain producing area in Lordaeron, and the hills of Hillsbrad could not be compared with it, and the previous plan was to help the High Elves, and at the same time to quietly weaken the High Elves, isn't it this large fertile field?

Dalaran eats jujube pills, so it is impossible for Dalaran to let out the land around him, even with the entire Hillsbrad Hills, and the Allahi Heights, Du Teng is not ready to let go.

Not to mention the Tirisfal Glades, the gates of Gilneth, the original territory, must be recovered no matter what.

Plus a sprawling city of Lordaeron......

Furstad sensed the ambition of this prince from Duten's words, which was also very much to Furstad's appetite.

The dwarves don't have much possessiveness for their territory, all they want is ore and wine, and with the mountains they can forge and with wine, they can also satisfy another hobby, so why not? As for running the country, to be honest, every dwarf doesn't want to do that, but it's a pity that the one who becomes a king is responsible for his own people, and has to give up more of what he loves and focus all his work and life on the country.

In fact, if they could, the Dwarven Kings would even want to give up power just like that, they don't have much desire for power in the first place—except for the Black Iron Dwarves.

At the same time, the dwarf is also a person who should love and hate, say whatever you want, and do what you want to do directly.

Duten's ambition, as well as his unpretentious style, pleased Furstad.

The strength of the ambitions, as well as the initial plans that have been completed so far, such as the capture of Anhador and Stratholm, to take control of the situation in both lands, also reassures Furstad.

Combined with the lure of wine, the natural goodwill of both parties, and Furstad's disinterest in power, the pact was concluded faster than anyone could have imagined.

The covenant stipulated that Gilneth and the Hammer Dwarves would henceforth be the strongest allies.

Gilneth is obliged to provide the Hammer Dwarves with food, wine, and other necessities of life, and at the same time needs to help the Hammer Dwarves protect their land. There is no thirst for territory, but the land in your hands must not be lost in vain, although the overall strength of the Brute Hammer Dwarves is strong, they still need the help of humans, which is the same as the demands of humans.

At the same time, Gilneth also has to send a large number of priests and mages to Eagle's Nest Mountain to help the dwarves learn magic and the power of the Light. It's not that the dwarves themselves don't have mages and priests, but how to say it, the direction of the wind within this race is like this, even if they are mages and priests, they are still dwarves in essence.

Grumpy, straightforward, alcoholic, and straight, expecting these guys to be a good teacher is basically no fun. If it weren't for the fact that the dwarves themselves were quite talented, it was unknown whether they would even be able to retain the number of mages and priests they have today. On the other hand, humans are much stronger in this aspect, and most humans don't like forging, they are afraid of being tired or dirty, so they don't have to worry that they will not do their jobs when they come here, so Furstad needs humans to provide these special professions.

Duten did not object either.

With the demise of Dalaran, a large number of human mages will lose their homes, and Gilneth, who is close at hand and has an open national focus, will be their best choice. Priesthood is even better, as it is arguably one of the easiest quick careers, as long as your faith is strong enough, and the Light will respond to your request very quickly. Of course, high-level priests are definitely not easy to find, but dwarves don't need such advanced professions here for the time being, do they?

And the needs of Gilneth, or Duten's side, are also very simple, first of all, equipment.

Dwarves are master blacksmiths, and it would be a waste not to use them, and they don't ask for them in vain, and they can trade them for food, wine, or even money. Poverty is only relative, and there is still no shortage of money to equip the army. And with Lordaeron's inheritance on the horizon, Duten is not short of money.

Then there is the second, and most important, that the dwarves need to send a Storm Knights to his territory to assist him in dealing with the impending formidable enemy. At the same time, the dwarves also need to teach them how to domesticate griffins, so that humans can also domesticate griffins on their own. In fact, Stormwind is now able to domesticate griffons on its own, but unfortunately there are no griffon settlements near Stormwind, and the method they get is not the best after all, not from the hands of the Brute Hammer Dwarves, so the efficiency is not high, so that there are very few griffons that can ride or even participate in the battle.

This situation will be the same in the future, the sky of the alliance belongs to the dwarves and gnomes after all, and humans will not be able to get a piece of the pie in the sky in the end. Duten wanted to change that, so the domestication of griffins was particularly important.

This was also the one that made them the most unable to make up their minds during the half-hour discussion.

The dwarves didn't want to hand over this method in their hearts, and what the humans got from it was also obtained by Lothar through his friendship with Copperbeard, and Copperbeard itself was not very good at this kind of thing, so the domestication method in the hands of Stormwind City was not top-notch.

The real best way to domesticate it is here at Brute Hammer, but no one can get their hands on it, not even the copperbearded dwarves of the same race, all they get are a shrunken castrated version.

Now Duten wants to get the complete method, which makes Furstad very entangled.

One is that human beings will change their faces after getting this method, and dwarves will lose their importance, and it will inevitably be difficult to live in the future. The second is the fear that humans will endlessly domesticate griffins, griffins are a product of nature, the number of such powerful creatures is not too much, it is no problem to equip one or two legions, but the number of human beings is more than one or two legions can stop?

He feared that Duten's ambition would grow endlessly, so that in the end, in order to satisfy his ambition, he would tame the griffons in large numbers, thus destroying this beautiful biological race.

Fortunately, Duten also made his own guarantees, and swore in front of Furstad that he would tame the griffons in an appropriate amount as his population condition allowed, and would never harm the roots of this race.

People in this world still attach more importance to oaths, or contracts, no matter how you say it, if you generally release it, it will basically not be changed. Therefore, it is necessary to think better before speaking, and balance the pros and cons.

Now that Du Teng has said so and sworn an oath, Furstad will naturally not continue to hesitate.

In the end, the two sides also agreed on a new place for the dwarves to live, and the Eagle's Nest Mountain would naturally remain here, but Du Teng was ready to make a division for the dwarves.

He had thought about the location, just in the small valley he had occupied in the Eastern Plague, it seemed to be called the Mushroom Valley or something, in short, there were many huge mushrooms growing inside and outside the valley, each of which was more than ten meters high, covering the entire small valley. It's hard for outsiders to find it, and the terrain is high enough and the space is large enough.

Of course, the dwarves were overjoyed by this, the new land represented a new mineral deposit, they did not claim the territory, but there was a perverted fanaticism about the mineral deposit, and Duten helped them find a new one, and of course they were very happy.

At this point, the matter of forming an alliance is completely certain.

With Duten and Furstad holding hands together, Gilneth and the Hammer Dwarves are finally on the same chariot. The combination of one of the major nations of mankind and the strongest air force race on the continent will create what kind of behemoth no one knows so far. But in the future, they're sure to shine - oh, I forgot to mention, there's a High Elf in this league.

It may not be there yet, but soon, with Kael'thas leaving, the High Elves will soon lose their backbone and eventually become part of the Alliance. (To be continued.) )
