Chapter 140: Preparing for War (20 Monthly Pass Plus Update)

Acceptance means that Thunder can rally a strong ally, and at the same time, it means complete embracing of the Dark Goddess.

There are benefits, but there are more disadvantages, the rule of the High Elves is still very strong, and it is very likely that they will be suppressed if they clearly show their firm support for Her Highness the Goddess now.

Also, the Church of Light is not good-looking, he is still the Glorious Knight of the Church, and it may not be appropriate to slap him in the face directly.

"I've always promoted freedom of worship in my territory, and I thought we could visit the temple first. ”

Lei Ming declined the Marquis of Steyr, but still invited the Marquis of Steyr to visit with him.

The winter wheat in the fields is not far from ripe, and it will be ready for harvest in about two months.

Thunder called Juston and Shaktor, most of the things in Bourbon Canyon were taken care of by the two of them, and he instructed: "The Marquis of Steyr and I are going to visit the Dark Temple in Bourbon Province, the weather is warm, it's time for the militia to conduct spring training, this point must be grasped well, I have a hunch, it will not be long before war breaks out!"

Jaston and Shaktor both stood up at the same time, Lei Ming's vision has always been wrong, this has been verified by time, at this point they are very convinced of Lei Ming, since Lei Ming said that war will break out soon, then this possibility will not be small.

Fortunately, the battle with the Turang family half a year ago allowed many militiamen who participated in the war to get actual combat training, and their foundation was very good.

"Okay! The two of us will keep an eye on the training, and we won't let the militia slack off. ”

Jaston and Shaktor looked at each other and exchanged glances, and Shaktor agreed.

Before leaving, Lei Ming checked the situation of the little amoeba again, and now the little amoeba looked very bloated, the size of a small arm, which had become much larger.

It had just gobbled up a certain amount of copper, and was now devouring tin. Later, the density of the metal increases, and the rate of devouring slows down, as the metal fuses with each other. The result is a material similar to an alloy.

Thunder and the Marquis of Steyr got into a comfortable carriage, and the thundering stone carriage followed the road to Bourbon Province.

At the same time, the imperial city of the human race, among the relics of the swamp country.

His Majesty Xin Lian received a notice when he got up early. From a tribe of minotaurs around the Terrans, and the messenger was a goblin merchant.

His Majesty the Emperor's face was not very good-looking, because the notice said that the food of the Minotaur tribe was not enough to eat, and the warriors in the tribe were becoming more and more restless, and their neighbors, that is, the Terrans, planted a large area of winter wheat was about to mature, so the patriarch of the Minotaur tribe hoped that His Majesty Xin Lian could help them with a batch of food, otherwise the warriors of the tribe might come over directly to grab it if they were very hungry!

This is a blatant threat. His Majesty Xin Lian was a little angry.

He had a map in his hand, which was already quite detailed, and it marked the three tribes of the Minotaurs, one of the Werewolves, and one of the Minotaurs across the Inland Sea from the provinces of Bourbon and Habsburg.

Therefore, the power of the Minotaurs in the north of the continent, especially around the territory of the Terrans, is still relatively strong, with a total of four tribes. Although they are four different tribes, they are of the same race, and if a war breaks out between one of the Minotaur tribes, the other three Minotaur tribes will definitely help the same tribe.

So. His Majesty Xin Lian is also quite jealous of the Minotaur tribe.

He rubbed his temples in annoyance, not knowing how to decide.

"Go and get Master Berg here. ”

His Majesty Xin Lian ordered his attendants.

Soon, Master Berg hurried in, this Berg mage had a chubby pumpkin face, about fifty years old, but his expression had a decisive momentum.

"Master Berg. Look at this. ”

His Majesty Xin Lian handed the Minotaur notice to this Berg mage very crookedly, don't look at Berg Mage with a somewhat ugly pumpkin face, but this Berg mage is the youngest legendary mage in the Empire!

"Hmph! These minotaurs are really daring, I have done a lot of research on the various races on the continent these days, this one Minotaur tribe alone is not to be feared, our royal city guards can beat them to the ground, even their minotaurs are also very populous among the orcs, I estimate that there are thirty or forty minotaur tribes on this continent. ”

Master Berg also has his own insights, and he said something substantive, he pointed out that a single Minotaur tribe, even if they are all in the prime of life, add up to only twenty or thirty thousand, after all, the Minotaur tribe rooted in the north of the continent is not good enough, unlike the Minotaur tribe in the east of the continent, which has a population of more than ten or two hundred thousand at every turn.

Dealing with twenty or thirty thousand minotaurs, the Wangcheng Guards will definitely have no problem, as for whether they can beat these minotaurs to the ground, this point is debatable, and Master Berg only said it nicely.

I'm afraid of this, but, I'm afraid that they will fight one, and then the Minotaur tribe will all unite to deal with their human race, then it will be unbearable.

"Alas, after all, I still don't have enough confidence!"

His Majesty Xin Lian sighed, he remembered what Lei Ming wrote in the "Records of Experiences in the Ancient Continent", the orc race is the biggest enemy of their human race, and it has only been a few days? There will be some signs of conflict immediately.

"Promise them, but you can't give them all at once, give these minotaurs food in batches, drag them first, order the whole country, prepare for battle!"

His Majesty Xin Lian weighed it and continued to play with his methods, he was going to stabilize the Minotaur with a batch of grain first, and then take advantage of the fact that the spring weather was warm and it was not a busy time to practice, and once the war started, it could be regarded as some preparations.

In fact, his methods can be said to be very clever, and the human race also has some savings, and can buy grain from goblin merchants, and these savings accumulated in the past support them to the grain harvest, which is more than enough, as long as the grain is harvested, even if the war starts, they will have much more confidence.

Moreover, he prepared and drilled, but he had no intention of taking the initiative to attack, and His Majesty Xin Lian also thought that if the Minotaurs took the initiative to attack, then they would passively counterattack, and such a situation would be more favorable.

Master Berg didn't say a word, and that's what he meant.

However, if Lei Ming was here, he would definitely refute His Majesty the Emperor's decision.

They still don't know enough about the Minotaurs, who have always been a race that has to be an inch.

If His Majesty Xin Lian strongly refuses the request of the Minotaur tribe, these Minotaurs will still be afraid of one or two, and may not take any action in the end, but if they send food to the Minotaur tribe in this way, the Minotaurs will feel that the Terrans are easy to bully, and then their appetite will grow bigger and bigger, and when they lose patience, they will take action and carry out a complete ransack! )
