"Forty million gold coins?" Prince Nicholas and the war shaman of the Tiger Clan exchanged a hidden look, and immediately looked away as if nothing happened, Nicholas still maintained an elegant posture, nodded lightly and said: "I think this amount of materials can compensate for a certain loss, although it is far from enough for everyone, but after all, it is a joint operation, and it is necessary to accommodate each other after all." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoSo, I don't know what everyone's attitude is, but on behalf of my father and the Empire, I agree with the proposal of the Duke of Nernas. ”

"We agree. "It was the representative of the Land of Sand who spoke, and the king of the Land of Sand did not attend the meeting in person, but sent his own First Consul. The land of sand on the continent of Yara is considered by many to be a mysterious country, hidden deep in the desert, building cities next to oases, and living a relatively closed life. The history of the entire land of sand can be traced back to the beginning of the Tertiary Period, when a group of special half-elemental creatures lived freely in the desert and slowly established their own country.

With the outbreak of the War of the Gods at the end of the Third Age, not a single human being belonging to the single faith of the entire race fought each other in the war, and countless families were broken up as a result, and countless humans lost the land where they lived. In order to escape the war, some people were forced to flee into the sea of sand, and most of them died painfully in the dry, but some lucky people were lucky enough to find the city of the sandmen, and were rescued by the sandmen who looked as cold as rocks, and successfully survived. Since then, these humans have lived together with the sand people in the sand sea, slowly multiplying and expanding their numbers, and finally forming a situation where humans and sand people coexist.

The sandmen are not dissatisfied with these humans who have suddenly entered their lives, and thousands of years of living together have made the relationship between the two more and more harmonious, so to speak, these desert humans have now completely integrated into the sandmen, except for the characteristics of the race, other aspects, whether it is clothing, habits, or even the treatment they receive are almost identical. In the land of sand, except for the king and the lord of each oasis city, which must be served by the sand people, the selection of officials at all levels at other levels is completely different from humans and sand people, and they enjoy the same treatment, for example, the current first consul can be regarded as the most powerful person in the entire sand country except for the king, but he is a pure human and not a sand man.

Sandmen tend to have awkward names, and simple names like Asker are a minority, most of them are long strings, and they are extremely strangely pronounced, and the First Archon has introduced himself before, but I'm afraid no one can remember it. However, it didn't have much effect, he seemed to have inherited the characteristics of the sanders' unkindness, and did not form an envoy group, but came directly to Neville City with six sandman escorts, so he was the only one who attended this military exchange on behalf of the country of sand. Without waiting for others to comment, he continued to his own heart: "And we ask for an advance in advance, note that it is not the part that is compensated to us, but the war resources you have promised, and we must ask for a part. ”

"Of course, there are no problems. Nernas still kept a straight face, but still nodded: "You are responsible for building fortifications in the desert in advance and storing logistics materials, and it is impossible to complete it without advancing supplies in advance. Don't worry, we'll transfer the supplies to you as soon as they're ready. ”

"Then we'll have no problem. The First Archon said stiffly: "You and I have fought so many times, we should be familiar with our way of fighting in the desert, and we will maintain the previous method of fighting in joint operations, and nothing will change." So, we didn't bring our troops, it was really not necessary. As for the number of troops, we don't have any so-called regular troops in the land of sand, and every adult is a qualified warrior. Therefore, we will send all the troops on the basis of retaining enough numbers to keep the country functioning. ”

As he said, the way of fighting in the Land of Sand is very desert-specific, in ordinary terrain, they can fight head-on like human forces in other countries, and in desert terrain, they have their own unique set of combat methods. In the desert, there lives a unique creature called the sandworm, which has a body tens of meters long, and its thick body can freely shuttle through the underground of the desert, and the speed of shuttle is very amazing. The sandworms living in the desert domesticated a large number of sandworms thousands of years ago, and originally used the space in their bodies as a means of transportation and transportation for their own services, and later when humans gradually integrated into the sandmen, the more flexible humans quickly developed the war use of sandworms. In the war, dozens or even hundreds of desert warriors hide in the body of the sandworm, relying on a large number of sandworms to move at high speed in the desert, once encountering the enemy, the huge sandworm will pop out of the sand, swallow a large number of enemy troops into the belly and then drill back into the ground, at this time the desert warrior who has been waiting in the sandworm's body for a long time will attack the swallowed enemy army from all angles, relying on the local numerical advantage to eliminate all the enemies in the sandworm's body. As frequent hostile nations, this set of tactics with minimal casualties has been a nightmare for the Farrar Empire and the Neville Federation, making it almost impossible for the two countries to step into the desert.

However, this tactic is still reliable if it is an ally, so the Duke of Nernas and Prince Nicholas nodded their heads almost at the same time, agreeing with the First Consul. However, the two immediately noticed that they were doing the same action with each other, and they glanced at each other with the same meaningful smile on their faces, and Duke Nernas said: "Since His Royal Highness accuses our Federation of investing too little power, why don't you ask His Royal Highness to introduce to you how strong the Faral Empire is going to invest this time." ”

"Absolutely, I'm sure you won't be disappointed. Nicholas nodded to an old knight with a white beard beside him, and then continued: "My father taught us that when the world needs us, we should not be afraid to stand up and take our due responsibilities, this is the behavior of a responsible force, if for some reason shrink behind other forces, it is really a loss of grace of a great power." ”

"Hehe, His Majesty Farrar is still so bold. Duke Nernas smiled noncommittally: "Then let's get to know the demeanor of a great country." (To be continued.) )
