Chapter 336: Make up your mind

"Okay, let's stop gossiping, Tark Patriarch should directly explain his intentions."

Arthur didn't plan to dwell on this topic with Tulk.

Faced with the question that Arthur Wang threw over again, Tulk was undoubtedly deeply entangled.

Originally, he was already mentally prepared, after all, in his previous opinion, even the worst case scenario was just to submit to the High Elves.

And now he suddenly found that the situation was not at all what he thought, and even worse than he expected at the beginning!

The High Elves have surrendered to humanity!

In this case, if their Wood Elf clan were to submit, wouldn't they also have to accept human rule?

The High Elves and the Wood Elves are both elves, and they were still a clan in ancient times.

But elves and humans are completely alien!

Not to mention the old-school wood elves, even for the high elves and the nature elves, the difference is too big.

For a moment, Tarke, who was also entangled in his heart, turned his head to look at Adolf who was sitting next to him, only to find that Adolf was also looking at him.

Both of them could see a wry smile in each other's eyes.

Who would have thought that things would turn out like this?

After thinking for a while, Tark had a thought in his heart and said, "Lord Elf King, I came here this time to buy a batch of grain. Of course, we Wood Elves can pay with magic crystals. ”

Using magic crystals to buy food, it can be said that this is a proper prodigal behavior.

If this is a deal, then Arthur Wang must be sure to make a profit, but the problem is that this is not a deal, and Arthur Wang is not here.

Arthur Wang looked at Tark with a smile, and saw that this guy was furious in the bottom of his heart.

"Patriarch Talk, don't laugh, this is cold and snowy, our high elves are not having a good time, how can the food for the winter be sold?"

Hearing this, Tark was stunned for a moment.

Having a hard time?

Is this when he is stupid, or when he is blind?

From the moment he entered the city, what he had added and heard was enough to see that the days in the city were a nourishing life.

If this is called a bad life, then isn't their wood elf clan living a beggar life?

"Lord Elf King, I have come to buy food sincerely."

"I'm sorry, but we don't sell the food of the elves." Arthur Wang said with a sincere face.

Tarke could only be patient, and continued to say to King Arthur: "We can offer a high price, can the Elf King not think about it again?" ”

Hearing this, Arthur Wang laughed, if he could, he really wanted to toss and toss these wood elves again.

However, His Majesty's mission is very clear, that is, to make the Wood Elves submit.

Therefore, this matter still has to be grasped to a certain extent, if Tarke is forced to be in a hurry.

When the time comes, he will directly tear his face and never die, and when the time comes, Arthur Wang will also have to be blind.

"Do you remember what the Great Elder of your Wood Elf Clan said back then?"

When Walter was still alive, Arthur sent envoys in addition to this, and even went there himself, but no matter how much he showed goodwill, the old man with a head full of wood did not look like oil and salt.

Even, when it comes to anger, the old man will slap the table and yell at Arthur Wang, wanting to fight each other with a sword.

But what about now?

The form changed, and the wood elf asked for Wang Arthur's side. "Looks like the Tark patriarch remembers."

Looking at the change in the expression on Tarke's face, Arthur Wang grinned.

"So, do you think I'm going to sell you grain?"

Faced with this question, Tarke's face was cloudy.

If it were him, he wouldn't sell it.

But in the current situation, he must get food, otherwise his Wood Elf clan will starve to death countless people this winter!

Tulk gritted his teeth, and then made a complete showdown with Arthur Wang.

"What if we're a Wood Elf willing to submit?"

Hearing this, the corners of Arthur Wang's mouth curled slightly.

"Of course, it's all easy to say, and we are still very generous to our own people."

In the end, he couldn't escape this hurdle......

Arthur and Tark are both understandable people, and Talke's purpose is to have enough food to ensure that his Wood Elf clan can survive this winter and the clan will not starve to death.

And Arthur Wang's purpose is to bring the Wood Elves into obedience.

From the very beginning, the two sides have been talking with this purpose in mind.

But submission was only Tarke's last resort, unless he was cornered, or he didn't want to get to this point.

But King Arthur is different, no matter what conditions are proposed, he cannot be moved.

Because he has only one request, and that is to submit the Wood Elves to obedience.

Other than that, nothing to talk about!

After all, after the Wood Elves are submissive, whether it is the population, territory, or including the magic stone mine, it will become the property of Great Xia.

In that case, why should he bother to trade with it?

Now that the goal has been achieved, Arthur Wang seems to be in a very good mood.

"Then next, I also ask the Tarke patriarch to accompany me to the imperial city to meet His Majesty the Emperor, and when the time comes, everyone will be their own people."

"Still going to the Imperial City?"

"Of course, since you are going to submit, then it is not natural for you to meet our supreme ruler of Great Xia, and then offer your loyalty?"

"At the same time, you also know how much food can support an entire Wood Elf clan for the winter, and it must be approved by His Majesty."

Arthur stated the facts, but Tark was still frowning.

"That's true, but we Wood Elves are in dire need of food right now."

Speaking of this, Tarke's voice paused, and then he turned to ask, "How much time does it take to go to the Imperial City?" ”

"It takes at least a month to come and go."

"What?!"

Tarke's eyes widened when he got this answer.

What kind of joke is this?

In a month's time, how many people will be killed and injured by the Wood Elf clan!

Guessing Talke's thoughts, Arthur Wang whispered with relief: "Don't worry." Before that, I'll send someone to support a batch of food. ”

Hearing this, Tarke's expression softened slightly.

But after all, it was a matter of life and death for the clansmen, so he couldn't help but ask again: "Lord Elf King, what method do you plan to use to send the food over?" If it is an ordinary method, I am afraid that it is a little too late. ”

"You can rest assured that I have my own way to do this."

Speaking of this, Arthur Wang smiled mysteriously.

"As for what the solution is, you can see with your own eyes tomorrow, and it's almost past noon, why don't you have lunch together?"

For Arthur Wang's overtures, whether it was out of the temptation of food or the repair of relations between them, Tulc could not refuse this invitation.

For lunch, King Arthur directly asked someone to get a table of hot pot.

At the end of the lunch, Tark was sweating profusely, and he had to admit that it was the most comfortable meal he had ever eaten in this time.

After eating, both Tark and Adolf were in mixed moods.

Look at what the High Elves eat here, and then look at what their Wood Elves eat every day.

Early the next morning, Tark led his elk knights to follow Arthur to the outside of the city.

I saw that on the snow outside the city, a strange vehicle full of goods was ready to set off.

"Elven King, what is this?"

"It's called a sled, and it's our means of transportation in the snow in the summer and winter."

After speaking, Arthur Wang pointed to the goods on the sled.

"The food is ready and ready to go. Of course, if the Tark patriarch is not at ease, he can also send someone to follow. ”

"After all, after arriving at your wood elf's residence, if there is any conflict, it is obviously something that neither of us wants to see, do you say?"

Although Arthur Wang's words have a hint of testing his sincerity, I have to say that there is also a certain amount of truth in it.

After hearing this, Tark immediately turned to Adolf and said, "During the time I left, I don't know what happened to the clan. Adolf, you lead the elk knights with them, remember to maintain order in the clan, and in case of any emergency, I will allow you to make your own decisions. ”

Hearing this, Adolf was anxious, and then lowered his voice and asked, "We're leaving, so what should you do?" ”

Although dozens of knights can't change the situation, when they encounter a crisis, they finally have a chance to escape.

"Don't worry, since they are already planning to return to Great Xia, then there is no need for them to do anything to me."

Although he only stayed in this Senhai City for one night, the gap in development between the two sides made Tarke's mentality change slightly.

At least for leading the Wood Elves to submit to Great Xia, he was no longer as resistant as he was at the beginning.

The words had already been said for this part, and Adolf had nothing to say, so he nodded and answered the matter.

Adolf officially set off with the team transporting grain, while Tark followed Arthur Wang into another special carriage and rushed towards the imperial city of Great Xia, Great Xia.

What he saw and heard along the way was an eye-opener for Tarke, allowing him to further understand the prosperity of this Great Xia.

Especially when leaving the elven administrative area and entering Yushan City, it begins.

Compared with the elven city close to nature, the human city and goblin city that passed behind it were really eye-opening for Talke.

is constantly refreshing his cognition, so that his heart can't calm down for a long time.

During this period, the sled team carrying a large amount of food also galloped all the way to the outside of the wood elf's residence at a very fast speed.

This transportation efficiency made his fellow Adolf secretly frightened.

At the same time, he couldn't help but feel a touch of happiness in his heart.

Fortunately, the Great Elder was no longer there, otherwise, he would definitely fight Great Xia to the end.

However, with such a powerful civilization, the Wood Elves have no chance of winning at all.
