Chapter 117: Just because we don't like to fight doesn't mean we can't
In addition to assisting Tuyang, he also had to follow Howard to learn the political ideas of the Demon King Army, the principles of the Demon King Army, and the various scientific theories of the Demon King Army.
Follow Isha to learn about the various things in the Demon King's army.
Following Whitetail, Davarich learns horsemanship and assassination.
Learn acting with Tinari.
Learn housekeeping and cooking with Bella.
"Isn't the Demon King the most faceless card to teach? No matter how you look at teaching, it's like a side hustle. ”
"The Demon King taught you because he liked you. Don't talk nonsense, learn with an open mind. In the future, if you don't want to be a paladin, you can still open a hotel and live a prosperous life. ”
"The Demon King is so thoughtful. We thought that the Demon King was on the third layer, but it turned out that the Demon King was in the atmosphere. ”
"Well, I think you're thinking too much."
Now, the three fools have completely accepted the thoughts of the Demon King Army and are used to the life of the Demon King Army.
Not only can he communicate with other members of the Demon King Army without barriers, but he can also talk and laugh with the Hell Knights and Ainz, and when he sees Li Muran and Bella, he will take the initiative to say hello.
"Lord Demon King, Lord Li Muran is good."
Wearing ordinary agricultural clothes, although there is no sense of domineering and majesty when wearing a paladin uniform, this simple and ordinary appearance gives people a sense of calm and serenity.
It's reassuring to look at.
"Recently, I started doing farm work. Still used to it? ”
"It's all things that haven't been done before, and it's fun."
"It's very fulfilling to talk to everyone while farming, to look at everyone's smiles, and to listen to everyone's happy words when they predict the harvest. It feels more grounded than fighting for faith in the past. ”
"yes. In the past, I used to open and close my mouth to protect others. Thought we were doing something that would make everyone happy. But now, what we do is big, and everyone will actually be happier because of these little things. I did it myself, and my feelings came up. ”
Li Muran nodded.
The truth of labor transforming people is eternal and unchanging.
"It's good to have new ideas. That's how people grow. ”
"We were happy. In the past, I thought that demon kings were very cruel. Demon King City is also that kind of cave, and it is all a dirty and chaotic environment. But saw it with your own eyes. I experienced it for myself. The impression of the Demon King Army has completely changed. ”
"Honestly. Because the situation on the side of the Demon King Army is very different from the traditional impression. We're still a little bored. I can't figure out which side is true and which side is false. ”
"Don't rush, take your time. We won't drive you away. See with your own eyes, think with your own brain, and make your own judgments. That's the truest thing. ”
"Yes, Master Li Muran."
"Is there anything you don't like?"
"Nope. Satisfied with everything. The food here is good, the accommodation is good, the people are good, and the sheep is eye-catching. If you have to find fault, that's why the torture process is omitted. ”
Sophia said with a serious face.
There's definitely something wrong with this girl.
Li Muran seriously considered whether to take her to his office to understand the situation well.
...........
While busy building infrastructure and training newcomers.
Li Muran also took the time to go to Tonghammer's hometown.
Li Muran's idea was to invite a few more dwarven craftsmen to join the Demon King Army to speed up the upgrade of the Demon King Army's metal prop technology tree.
But before leaving the Demon King City, he learned about the situation in the dwarven hometown from the bronze hammer.
The copper hammer seems to have escaped from his hometown.
It was because he had nowhere to go that he ran to Bastora, where he was eventually caught and sold to White and turned into slavery.
That's all in the past.
Now the copper hammer is very happy, and it looks like he has found the value of life.
I won't talk about the unhappy things.
What made Li Muran care was the situation in Tonghammer's hometown.
According to the Copper Hammer, it seems that a demon king led the Demon King Sect to attack the mines of the dwarves' hometown.
While the demon king took the mine for himself, he also enslaved the remaining dwarves, allowing the dwarves to mine for him and know the metal props.
The demon kings Li Muran knew were all grabbing food and daily necessities.
For example, the pants-wetting demon Tinari came to attack Bella Demon King City because she wanted to eat better food and live a more comfortable life.
But this is the first time I have seen a demon king who enslaves dwarves to mine and collect metal resources like this.
I have to say that this guy's ideas are quite advanced, and compared to other demon kings, his ideological realm is quite high.
I feel that the level of science and technology may be able to compare with Li Muran's side.
Li Muran became interested in this demon king.
After thinking about it, Li Muran decided to get in touch with this demon king.
It is best to negotiate peacefully and resolve the issue without using force.
Otherwise, you can only go to war and reason with your fists.
When the demon king and the demon king meet, there is only one solution: fighting each other.
Although this statement is the general understanding of this world.
But after staying in this world for so long, Li Muran also understood a truth.
That is, the general perception of this world is not very reliable.
Just as paladins are not bright, and the army of demon kings is not necessarily cruel, demon kings do not necessarily have to fight each other.
There are exceptions to everything. The key is to look at the people.
The best proof of this is the relationship between Bella's Demon Army and Tucker.
So Li Muran decided to give this demon king a chance.
Hopefully, they can be persuaded to let the dwarves go. Li Muran can even give him resources in exchange.
After all, those dwarves are the same people as the Bronze Hammer. The copper hammer also has the idea of saving people, and his relatives are enslaved, and it is impossible for Li Muran and Bella to turn a blind eye to the leaders.
The biggest principle of the Demon King Army is to protect the interests of all members of the Demon King Army.
What's more, even if there is no relationship with the copper hammer, Li Muran wants to recruit more dwarven craftsmen.
In addition, this demon king's practice is to forcibly occupy people's hometowns and force dwarves to do things for him, which belongs to doing evil first.
The team of the Bella Demon King Army, which liberates the productive forces and rescues the toiling people, despises this kind of behavior the most.
In the spirit of the principle of upholding justice, there is also action.
Li Muran is in charge of this matter.
It was the other party who had the evil deeds first, so it was reasonable for Li Muran to beat him.
The dwarven homeland is in the non-human jurisdiction south of the border of Bastora.
There's a big mountain range there.
Dwarves have lived there for generations.
Because of the Undead Mount and Harley, it didn't take long to reach the destination.
Li Muran first made contact with the other party.
Through the conversation, they expressed their hope that the matter would be resolved peacefully.
Needless to say, the Demon King can't listen to such words.
The other party was aggressive, arrogant and domineering, not only unwilling to negotiate with Li Muran, but also wanted to lead people to attack Bella Demon King City and engulf the Bella Demon King Army.
The demon king clenched his fists and said menacingly.
"I want it all!"
It's a demon king. The tone is not small, and the approach is the same.
I can't help but sigh, are the thoughts of the demon king all carved out of a mold?
After communicating a few times, Li Muran gave the other party enough opportunities.
But the other party killed Li Muran every time.
The people of the Celestial Empire have always saluted first and then soldiers.
Since the other party doesn't give face, there is no need for Li Muran to continue to pretend to be a gentleman with the other party.
Li Muran gave up the idea of continuing to use diplomatic means to solve the problem, and decided to directly use force to bring the other party to its knees.
This time, Li Muran handed over the command to Tuyang, Davarich, Shiraowei and Karl.
The troops brought were composed of the Bearren Clan, the Demon Swordsman, the Demon Gunner, a small number of Demon King Sect assassins including Pierre, all members of the Hell Knights, and the militia led by the angry villager John, and finally the Three Fools of the Holy Light.
Speaking of which, the Bella Demon Army has always been a passive defense.
It has always been an invasion of outsiders, and the Demon King Army has fought back.
This is the first time that he has taken the initiative to challenge other demon kings.
There aren't many opportunities for such real battles.
"Tuyang, Davarich, Whitetail, Karl, you do your own troop programming. Bella and I are not in command this time. Can we trust you? ”
"Guaranteed to get the job done."
Everyone's momentum is so high. That should be fine.
The details of the Demon King's army have also been figured out. Except that the Demon King's skills are a bit tricky. But the strength of the entire Demon King Army is not strong.
According to the understanding of the combat power and combat quality of his own Demon King Army, the strength of the Bella Demon King Army crushed the opponent for several dimensions.
A scientific and modern combat system is not just a joke.
Tu Yang and others also gave a reasonable combat configuration according to the combat effectiveness and combat methods of different arms.
The old troops are the main attack.
The militia, who is still a recruit, is responsible for the backup.
Pierre's Assassin unit and Sofia's Paladin's unit were all a little excited because it was the first time they had officially joined the war.
Karl's Knights of Hell didn't see a reaction, and appeared calm.
Then, with Bella giving the order to attack.
The systematic operation of the Demon King Army of Bella began.
First the magic cannon bombardment, then the cavalry charged.
The separation of man and bear and the Knights of Hell steal the scenery.
Then came the cut of the Demon Swordsman and the Three Fools of the Holy Light.
The enemy's chain of command was destroyed by the Assassins' infiltration and the enemy's command system was fundamentally effective.
The battle ended in just 1 hour.
In the end, the Demon King's head was robbed by Carl. The black sword pierced the heart of the demon king without hesitation. Brought the battle to an end.
Everyone's performance was better than expected.
The combat effectiveness of the Bella Demon King Army even exceeded Li Muran's expectations.
There was no suspense in the battle, almost one-sided crushing.
The invincible demon king of the previous cow was destroyed before he didn't even have a chance to fight back.
The more you get it, the faster you hang.
Not to mention that Li Muran and Bella gave high praise to everyone.
The villagers of Yokwan Village were dumbfounded.
"Good, so handsome. The picture sheep is so handsome. ”
"Master Karl is so cool."
"This, is this the strength of the Demon King Army? It's too strong. ”
"Long live the Demon King Army. I'm so lucky to be able to join the Demon King's Army. ”
The villagers of Yoktor Village were shocked, and they jumped and jumped with excitement, saying that they wanted to grow up quickly and become super soldiers like their predecessors.
Sure enough, men's pursuit of war is engraved in their DNA.
The fight isn't the point, it's just a cutscene.
Rescuing the dwarves is the goal.
Let the Bronze Hammer go to meet the dwarves who are still in shock.
Copper Hammer explained the situation to everyone. Tell everyone that the Bella Demon King's Army is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and they are here to liberate everyone.
The dwarves reacted for a long time, still unable to believe that this was all true.
"No, it's not. Really let us go like that? Aren't demon kings going to plunder resources from each other? Kill that demon king, and you should continue to rule us. ”
Is it that they have been dominated for too long and do not believe that anyone will give them freedom?
It's also pathetic.
Li Muran sent food to the dwarves for the winter, and the dwarves finally believed that the Bella Demon King Army was really just here to save people, and they didn't want to rule them, nor did they want to squeeze resources.
After this, the dwarves who were finally freed wept with joy.
Celebrate your precious freedom.
While they were celebrating happily, Li Muran also asked the question he had been curious about.
Speaking of which, in many otherworldly works, dwarves are depicted not only as powerful craftsmen, but also as powerful warriors.
Why were these dwarves easily conquered by such a weak demon king?
"Lord Demon King, I feel that the other party is weak because you are too strong. Just look at the battle just now. Your fighting style and tactics are so strange. The combat effectiveness of both sides is not at all in the same dimension. The Demon King's thoughts can't be used as a reference at all. ”
"Lord Demon King. Although we also have troops. The strength of the dwarves is not weak either. But compared to you, there is still a huge gap. ”
Li Muran called the copper hammer over and asked him to explain to the other dwarves that he was not a demon king, but just a secretary.
Bella, who was used as an ornament on one side, became puffed up again.
When the bronze hammer explained to the dwarves, the other party knew that the demon king was the woman next to him, and showed an expression that was more surprised than knowing that he was free.
Is it so hard to accept the reality that Bella is the Demon King?
All right. That's true.
Except that this demon lord is stronger than the dwarves.
There are many other reasons why the dwarves are losing so badly.
The environment deteriorated, and factional struggles emerged within the dwarves.
Now here is only a small branch of the dwarves.
The number of soldiers is declining, and the soldiers are still neglecting to practice......
In short, he had a shortcoming, and he was seized by the other party.
Seeing that the Demon King Army of Bella was so strong, the dwarves all expressed their hope that they could get the same training and reinvigorate the dwarves.
It just so happened that Li Muran also wanted to recruit some dwarves.
Everyone talked about it for a while, and soon a consensus was reached.
The Demon King Army and the Dwarves form an alliance.
The Demon King Army is responsible for protecting the dwarves, training dwarven warriors, and providing basic survival supplies.
The Dwarves are willing to let volunteers join the Demon King Army and work with Copper Hammer to make metal equipment for the Demon King Army. If there is a need for the Demon King Army in the future, the dwarves will also help and stand on the same front as the Demon King Sect.
It can be based on mutual respect and understanding, which is the best outcome.
Li Muran and the dwarven leader immediately settled the matter.
When the dwarves and the members of the Demon King Cult heard the good news, they all raised their hands in celebration.
When things are settled, it is to clean up the mess.
After all, if you want to help the dwarves rebuild their homes, you must first clean up the things of the original demon king.
While cleaning up the wreckage of the old Demon King Army, Li Muran found several unusual places.
The first is that the opponent's Demon King Army is really transporting metal minerals outside.
Isn't it for your own use, but for shipping?
In other words, isn't this demon king the end of a certain link, but just an intermediate node?
