Chapter 164: Contest
The northern tundra entered a cold winter, and after the first heavy snowfall, the whole world was frozen, and the orcs also entered a long suffering of joy and sorrow. I say happy because in this harsh weather, the human army will not step into half a step at all, otherwise there is no telling when there will be a severe cold and heavy snow, and they will be wiped out. This means that the orcs don't have to worry about being attacked.
The sad reason is that in this kind of weather, a large number of orcs and livestock often cannot survive and freeze to death, or starve to death due to lack of food. In short, the cold is cruel and just, and it does not change with a certain race.
However, this year's winter has minimized the threat to the orcs of the Frostwolf Clan. They took horses from the horses, and a large number of cattle and sheep became spoils, enough to feed all the people without fear of famine.
The loose tribes of the Frostwolf Clan have merged into one large tribe, complementing each other's strengths, and the benefits and advantages have been fully revealed. Among them, the most dazzling performance is the Blue Wolf Tribe, a medium tribe of only 8,000 people, and its contribution to the entire large tribe has made all orcs have to admire and respect from the bottom of their hearts.
Now the nearly 50,000 orc warriors who have gradually trained have achieved great results, and their combat power has become outstanding, and no orc clan around them can compare with it. This gave the tribe enough confidence and security. The orc commanders in charge of commanding the warriors are all from the blue wolf tribe, whether it is the commanders Muru, Angre and Tulayan, or the main training and array of Lorne Khan, Balinta and Soto, all of whom have fully proven their abilities. The orcs paid homage to the mighty warriors, and the four fierce giants of Yatutus, Hubertus, Hesse, and Vignor naturally became the objects of worship of the orcs. It can be said that ninety percent of the army commanders and heroes of the entire Frost Wolf Tribe are from the Blue Wolf Tribe.
Some restless orcs are already worried, and they have even secretly spread rumors that the Blue Wolf Tribe is encroaching on the military power of the entire Frostwolf Clan. Although this is exactly what Baroque wanted to do. But just like Tulayan smashed the leg of a restless orc who was making trouble, and then said contemptuously: "Orcs speak with strength, and if you have the ability to command the army, then Lao Tzu will also submit to your feet." If you don't have the ability. Then retract your head into your asshole and settle down a bit!"
Of course, most of the people are still friendly to the people of the Blue Wolf Tribe. Because the Blue Wolf Tribe has paid enough for the Great Frost Wolf Tribe. Even some orcs think that if it were themselves, they would never be willing to give up so much wealth.
The Great Lake Salt Works of Perlmo were dried all summer. Salt has filled all the caves and wooden houses in the Mid-Levels settlement. Although the salt works are now frozen by heavy snow, it will not be possible to continue drying salt until the spring of the following year. But just the massive amount of salt accumulated now can even supply millions of orcs of the entire beast clan for a year. You must know that if this salt is trafficked to the human realm, it will definitely be exchanged for huge wealth, even if it is traded between orc tribes, it can allow the blue wolf tribe to obtain thousands of livestock in a short time, and its strength will increase several times.
But with a single word, the Baroque took out this batch of salt, which was shared by the frostwolf tribe. Even if he didn't care about the Baroque shamanic priesthood and shamanic witch doctor, he was admired and respected by everyone because of this. -- The Great Shaman of Brendan in the Valley of Miracles led a hundred battle priests and fifty veterinarians to buy hearts and minds in the tribe. No small number of forces have been gathered. But just in the face of the Baroque, the previous achievements were almost lost.
Except for a team of 10,000 men stationed in the large tribe, the other tens of thousands of orc warriors were all stationed in the grasslands of the horse raising, where the climate was much better than in the depths of the tundra. According to the instructions of the Baroque, neither the drill nor the study of the Hungry Wolf Formation could be stopped. With the loss of the grassland of the horse farm, the human race will definitely not be resigned, and after the beginning of spring next year, it is likely that they will be attacked. Work hard now, and next year you will be able to reduce casualties and losses.
In order not to allow the shamans of the Valley of Miracles to create threats and chaos within the tribe. The Baroque stayed in the colony of the Great Frostwolf Tribe!
The location of the Great Tribal Settlement is only a few hundred miles from the Kundu Maya Mountains, and it is only three to five days away from the Rock City of the Blue Wolf Tribe and the Gray Dwarves. They chose a relatively high slope that would not be too deep even in a blizzard. In the center is the tent of the Grand Patriarch of Ortu and the two chief elders and the witch doctor of the Baroque tribe, and then the outside is circled according to each other's power and status. There are all kinds of animal skin tents scattered together. Hundreds of thousands of orcs, tens of thousands of tents, and a large number of livestock, the entire large tribe occupies a huge area. It also shows the prosperity of the frost wolf clan.
The army is very important, and the Great Shaman of Brendan naturally has enough reason to let his battle sacrifices follow the side of the legion. Resides in the grassland of the horse farm. He led dozens of veterinarians, also stayed in the tribal settlements, and just facing Baroque alone made them feel a palpable pressure.
This damn guy is a magical shamanic witch doctor, often more than a dozen veterinarians toiling for a day to treat sick orcs and win their gratitude, while Baroque only shows his face, waves his hands, and spills a white light, and then all the sick orcs around him are all recovered. The orcs naturally worship and respect him, and who remembers the hard work of the veterinarians?
Brendan was a high shaman high in power, and ordinary orcs rarely saw him. Now Brendan is in the Great Frostwolf Tribe, and he is amiable and approachable. Every day, he would erect his own totem pole, gather pious orcs, tell them about the glory of the beasts of the past, and teach the spirits of the ancestors the glorious way. And Baroque was preaching, but he was too direct! he erected a totem pole made of the branches of his own tree of life, which directly caused the white light to cover the earth. His lecture to his people was simple: "Worship the spirit of the totem, and dedicate your faith with my totem pole as sustenance." The ancestors and totem spirit beasts of the Frostwolf Clan will appear and bless you. ”
Like in the ring, Baroque and Brendan each rally their followers in their own way. Oltu and the two chief elders watched their battle without any intention of interfering, everything that Baroque had brought in the past made them have enough confidence in him, this young man who had received the grace of the totem spirit would definitely not lose.
Indeed, more and more orcs are gathered around each of them. Brendan's totem pole shone brightly, revealing a massive black dire wolf, full of strength and rage, circling the oak totem pole in mid-air. The surrounding orcs worship religiously.
A totem beast also flew out of the baroque totem pole -- who would have known that this totem beast was the body of Rak's spirit beast? His light and shadow can be large or small, but in order to overwhelm Brendan's dire wolf, Lark has changed extremely large, like a huge mammoth. He's not like Brendan's dire wolf, just a stiff hovering around. Rak's spirit beast body was able to fly far away, and he could already faintly feel the power of faith in the orcs around him. Whoever is the most devout in his faith, Rak will stay above his head for a moment, casting a mist of light that will make the blessed orcs cry with ecstasy or excitement!
It is conceivable that Brendan's dire wolf was completely suppressed in front of Rak, who was able to interact with orcs. More and more orcs followed the totem poles of the Baroque, and there were fewer and fewer orcs around the shaman. Even if Brendan was calm enough, his face gradually became difficult to look at. Some of his followers began to suspect that the Baroque was playing tricks, as they had never heard of such magical intellect as totemic light and shadow.
Zainzu stepped forward without saying a word and taught the group a hard lesson, and the Baroque had no intention of stopping it at all. Whether or not he is pretending to be a ghost, Brendan himself should know very well. The totemic power on Rak's body is so strong that unless he is an idiot shaman, he will lie without his heart. Brendan was a shamanic high priest after all, and he could tolerate acquiescing to his followers telling nonsense, but if he did the same himself, it would be a blasphemy against the totemic spirits. This would be a serious matter!
Although Baroque said nothing and was respectful to Brendan, his actions did really embarrass the shamanic high priest more and more, and finally almost to the point of being ignored. Brendan sadly discovers that unless he tears his face with Baroque and expells him by force, sooner or later he will have no reason to exist in the Great Frostwolf Tribe.
In the end, Brendan pinned his hopes on the 100 battle shamans, hoping that they would be able to infiltrate the legion and control enough troops. But how is this possible? The hungry wolf battle formation created by the Baroque requires a balanced balance of strength and strict discipline like a human legion. They are divided into teams of 1,000 people, 100 people and even 10 people, each with a strict queue and formation. A hundred battle shamans were ostracized as if they were superfluous.
The battle shamans were initially dissatisfied and raised objections. Muru didn't say anything, just gave them a new team of 10,000 soldiers, and then commanded the team of 10,000 people who had experienced the baptism of war, and the two sides fought against each other.
In the face of the 10,000 teams that gradually began to exert the power of the hungry wolf battle array, even if all the 100 battle shamans released the power of the shamans, and the strength of the 10,000 new warriors increased as if they had entered a frenzy, they would eventually lose very badly. The new warriors are certainly violent and strong, but they are just scattered and fighting on their own, how can they be defeated? Even the main body of the hungry wolf battle formation commanded by Mu Lu has not been broken, so don't defeat it!
The first two months of this winter were a contest between the orcs from the Blue Wolf tribe and the shamans of the Valley of Miracles.
Most of the battle shamans are orcs in their prime, and they haven't been contaminated with much of the rotten aura of the Valley of Miracles, so after losing, they have developed respect for their opponents. As the Baroque predicted, as long as there is curiosity, as long as they still have the blood of orcs, they will eventually be influenced. After fighting side by side in the future, they will merge with the Frostwolf Tribe.
Brendan eventually had to admit that his attempt to secretly control the Frostwolf Tribe had failed. This is a serious problem...... At least for the shaman elders of the Valley of Miracles. Because there is also a War Bear clan next to it, their chieftain Plotoya has a close relationship with the Baroque, and gradually has a tendency to merge the entire War Bear Clan to form a large tribe. If the orc clans are integrated, their strength will increase greatly, and correspondingly, the influence of the Valley of Miracles will decrease, which is something that the shaman elders do not want to see!(To be continued.) )
