Chapter 157: The Minotaur Army
In the middle of the inland sea, a huge fleet of transport ships is sailing in a straight line, and these transport ships occupy the entire route, and it is impossible to count how many there are.
In the cabin, on the deck, it was densely packed with minotaurs.
The minotaur has the head of a cow, with two curved horns on his head, thick limbs, a well-developed chest and abdomen, heavy and powerful hooves, and a slight difference in the color of their hair, mainly brown yellow, green yellow and blue black, these three colors, the coat color is dark.
They are very tall and strong, and the gnolls are like weak chickens in front of them, nearly three meters tall, and their thick nostrils breathe hot air from time to time, and they are very imposing.
Moreover, there are many tribes of the Minotaurs, large and small, and they are also closely related to each other.
The reason why they got on the goblin transport ship this time was actually for two reasons.
On the one hand, there is a nearby Minotaur tribe who contacts them and asks them to plunder the Terran territory together, and on the other hand, the goblin merchant Mimet, who has been trading with them for a long time, is willing to transport them to the other side of the sea, seize the land, surround this inland sea, and then clear the field, take the resources of this inland sea for themselves, and even cultivate it into a purple fish-man breeding base.
That is to say, if there is no thunder, Qiu Qiuen, who has five frigates, will not end up well, and will definitely be cleared by Mimet in the end, which is a game of big fish eating small fish.
Even if it was Thunder, it didn't have the courage to take possession of all this inland sea.
From this point of view, Mimmit's capital and courage are all sufficient.
"In half a day, Chief Ironhoof, your warriors will be able to set foot on the other side of the sea, and then you can indulge your warriors to snatch a flock of sheep to your heart's content, and at the same time, you will reap a steady stream of profits from this inland sea. ”
Mimet stood beside the minotaur chief Ironhoof, and said something nice, but his eyes were not on Ironhoof. He had been trading with Ironhoof for many years, and the vast majority of the Ironhoof's tribe was supplied by Mimet.
Mimet doesn't have any good feelings about the Terran Empire, because he doesn't earn a gold from the Terrans!
He's in the shipping business, and he has a large fleet. The transports that appeared here were only a small part of his fleet, and his large fleet was still on its way to the inland sea, and he also doubled as a trade on the coast, such as the tribe of the Iron Hoof. As Mimet's fleet passed, it unloaded a shipment of supplies and traded with the Iron Hoof.
Mimet wanted to clear this inland sea, including blocking the coast around the inland sea, so he thought of Iron Hoof, and he transported the army of Minotaurs across the sea, mainly because Iron Hoof blocked the coast for him, and for this reason, he promised Iron Hoof some benefits.
Of course, Mimet would not really give Iron Hoof a lot of benefits, and in his mind, Iron Hoof would not find out how many benefits there were. When the time comes, he only needs to pull out a little jingele, and these minotaurs who have bad brains will already be very happy, and finally he will be able to bring cheap supplies from other places, and earn back all these jinglers that have been distributed to the minotaurs.
Mimet is definitely a qualified goblin merchant, and his shrewdness is deep in his bones.
When Mimet was gone, a small fox man approached the Minotaur Chief Iron Hoof and whispered, "Chief, have you really made up your mind to give Mimet your life?" ”
This fox man is the equivalent of a kobold military advisor, but the Ironhoof Chief is a very assertive minotaur. Ironhoof would only listen to him, but not necessarily do so, for example, this time, the Foxmen were reluctant to let the Minotaur warriors work as thugs for the goblin merchants. But Iron Hoof agreed to Mimet.
"Hmph, of course I know, I've been trading with Mimet for so many years, will I still not know him?"
Iron Hoof snorted coldly, and sat down on a coiled rope around the transport, behaving rather rudely. But it would be a big mistake to look down on him just because of this.
"And what are your plans?"
The fox man asked curiously, he felt that the Minotaur tribe of Iron Hoof should not help Mimet but blockaded the coast, this matter was thankless, maybe if the Terran resistance was fierce, the Minotaur tribe would suffer a lot of damage, even if he succeeded, he would not believe that Mimet would give 30% of the profits to Ironhoof as he promised, and it was not easy to take money from those goblin merchants who loved money.
"As long as the coast is blocked, we will also have some control at that time, and we can force Mimet to pay more price, and at the same time, isn't Mimet going to breed purple fishmen?
Iron Hoof spewed out a hot breath from his nostrils proudly, looking at the calm sea, but the words he said made the fox man stunned, Iron Hoof had already calculated so clearly, on the one hand, he blackmailed Mimet to raise the price, on the other hand, he had to guard and steal, when Mimet worked hard to breed the fish man, but he stole it out to sell it......
Lei Ming didn't know that there was a convoy of transport ships carrying tens of thousands of Minotaur troops straight through the inland sea, and finally docked at the seashore at the junction of Bourbon Province and Habsburg Province, and then the Minotaur tribe army divided into two routes, marching to Bourbon Province and Habsburg Province respectively.
Iron Hoof is not confused, how much benefit can be gained by robbing the Terrans? Blockading the coastline is the long-term benefit, and the reason why he said that he wanted to rob the Terrans was just to boost morale and make his Minotaur warriors excited.
When the time comes, he will ask the warriors of his tribe to drive away all the Terrans on the coast, and by the way, he will rob again, as for attacking the territory of the Terrans, he is not so interested.
In the afternoon, Mimet's convoy finally arrived at the shore, exactly as marked on the charts, a blind spot for the Bourbon and Habsburg patrols, and the two sides did not argue about this dividing point for the sake of family friendship, but there was a rough division, and the patrolling teams of both sides generally did not come here.
A steady stream of minotaur warriors arrived at the shore in small boats, and then stood in formation, with only a few thin pieces of armor hanging from their bodies, revealing large swaths of strong muscle.
On their shoulders, they carried all kinds of steel blunt weapons, because their hooves were not suitable for mastering delicate weapons, so this heavy blunt weapon became a good choice for them, and on the other shoulder was often a shriveled sack, which they prepared for looting.
They were very excited, and their hooves kept sliding on the sand, and they looked a little irritable, because they hadn't come out to loot for a long time, and this was the fastest way to make a fortune. (To be continued.) )
