The news of the declaration of war on Thunder Bluff by the City of Parliament soon spread throughout Elam. After all, although Elamite has a complex terrain, it is actually not a very large area, and the trade links between merchants allow news to circulate between cities like goods, not to mention the declaration issued by Thunder Cliff this time.

For this war, most of the cities near Carthage immediately declared neutrality. After all, the arms trade with Thunder Cliff has made them more or less taste the sweetness, and they don't want to turn their faces with Thunder Cliff at this time. The cities near the sea and in the middle were ambiguous, after all, although they also had a trade relationship with Thunder Cliff, they did not actually make much profit.

However, the drow elves sent by Thunder Cliff in these cities have taken the initiative to consult with the city lords. On the surface of Thunder Cliff's attitude and this war, Thunder Cliff is actually the identity of the victim. Judging from the later declaration of neutrality, the Drow did a good job of political work.

In the end, the city of Parliament was supported by only two cities. One is Santa Fe, whose legion has just been destroyed, and although he supports it, he only says that it can only help with weapons. The other is Bugas, which is close to the Parliament City, which was originally a subsidiary town of the Parliament City, and developed by providing crops for the Parliament City, and as a predominantly agricultural city, it has little strength.

"Then in other words, our main enemy is only the City of Parliament. After listening to Glock's report, Mo Yan said, "So how many soldiers can be dispatched to the Council City for this war, and are they sufficiently armed and equipped?"

"The City of Parliament, as the largest city in Elam, has four legions that can be fought. But they can't send them all, and I expect two legions to go into battle. Glock, who was familiar with the City of Parliament, continued: "As for the weapons and equipment, they have always been provided by Santa Fe. It's been a long time since the city of Parliament has experienced a major battle, so they should be well-equipped. ”

"How about Lobito's reply. Mo Yan nodded, turned to Lilith and asked, "How do they react to our intention to station?"

"Lobito didn't allow us to enter their village. Lilith replied, "But they are not against us being stationed nearby, they are neutral about this war." At present, Commander Refra has begun to prepare the corps and prepare for the road, and will probably be able to leave tomorrow. And the Second Legion has been contacted yesterday, they have nothing to lose by hunting monsters, they will send a team to send the monster corpses back, and the others will go directly to the defense area. ”

"Two legions against two legions, our combat effectiveness will be slightly weaker. Regel on the side said: "The warriors of the council city are the most elite of Elan, although they do not grow to fight, but every year they recruit the most elite warriors from various cities to join, which ensures their combat effectiveness. Moreover, the temple of the god of war is in the council city, and maybe there will be a chosen warrior to join it this time. ”

"Chosen Warriors, what is that?" Mo Yan asked, hearing an unfamiliar word, "Are they very strong?"

"It's not very strong, it's very powerful. "They are warriors chosen by God, and they have grown up under God's guidance since they were children, constantly fighting against all kinds of monsters or strong men, and everyone has experienced a hundred battles.

Even the chosen warriors of Carthage's goddess of wealth have a strength that is dozens of times stronger than ordinary warriors. What's more, the five of them are a war group, even a single dragon can't match it, and all the creatures in history that have been given the name of the Demon King have been killed by them. ”

"Then for these possible Chosen Warriors, leave it to me to deal with. Mo Yan thought for a moment and said, "If they appear on the front line, notify me immediately, and I will immediately go to support." Order the corps not to engage them, inflicting unnecessary losses. ”

"I'll get the order delivered. Lilith said as she recorded the order.

"That's how the battle is arranged today, and if anything changes, it will be discussed at tomorrow's meeting. Mo Yan continued: "You can step down, Lilith about the harvest of the fields outside the city, do you have anything to report......?

......................................................

At this time, in the Parliament City, the Speaker, who is the head of the Parliament City, is furious.

"Why doesn't the temple send the Chosen Warriors? It's a monster city, and it's killing the whole of Elam!" The Speaker slapped his desk vigorously and shouted at the God of War Temple priest in front of him: "Now all the Elam cities are trading with that monster, and the business of the Salts is being controlled by that monster little by little, if we don't take action now, Elam will become the Elan of that monster!"

"That monster obeys the rules of humanity. There was not the slightest anger at the Speaker's roar, his voice was steady and flat, as if the person in front of him was just a stake, and he said to the angry Speaker, "And the God of War does not think that there is anything wrong with his aim. ”

"Is the god of war on the side of the monsters?" said the Speaker in disbelief, "The god of war has abandoned the Salts and is planning to support a monster?"

"God of War will not help anyone. In response to the speaker's question, a trace of displeasure appeared on the priest's face and said: "It seems that as a politician for a long time, you have forgotten the doctrine of the god of war. What the god of war supports is always the winner, and what the god of war abandons is always the loser (hehe). If you want to win the support of the god of war, sacrifice your victory.

And don't assume that others don't know what you're doing, outsiders can never really think about Elam. Have you really figured out what kind of situation you will face if you lose this war?"

"Everything I do is for Elam!" said the Speaker, sitting back in his chair, "When we capture that monster city, all the technology it possesses will become Salts, and the entire production of Elam will be raised to a new level, and there will be no need to look at the monster's face anymore." ”

"Then I can only wish you success. The priest looked at the speaker who insisted and said helplessly: "I hope you can be re-elected again in the upcoming election." ”

"Of course, my old friend. Hearing the priest's words, a smile appeared on the speaker's face, and the wrinkles on his face appeared, and he said, "What I have gained from this victory will make the whole of Elam thank me." ”

"Goodbye then. The priest pulled up the hood of his blood-red robe, covered the glimmering rune on his forehead, and walked towards the door and said, "I will pray to the god of war for you, may the god of war give you strength." ”

"May the God of War be with us. The Speaker nodded, stood up and saluted the priest.

After the priest left, a man walked into the Speaker's office. 、

"The Temple of War didn't agree to help?" the man asked the Speaker, "and that would slow things down." And our gift is already on its way, and we will be in the City of Parliament next month, can you destroy Thunder Bluff before then?"

"Salter's warriors are unbeatable. Hearing the man's words, the Speaker said with disdain: "Your ancestors understood this seven hundred years ago. After all, Elam is the Elan of the Salts, and a mere monster can't stop the Saltts' blades. A month is enough time to destroy that monster's lair. ”

"Well, then, I can only wait for your good news. The man smiled and said, "I hope you don't forget our agreement." ”

"Marlo is nothing more than that, unable to break through the Carthaginian defenses, so he can only think of attacking from this aspect. The speaker looked at the man and said, "Don't worry, after defeating Thunder Cliff." Carthage's supply of weapons and equipment will be cut off, and I can guarantee that not even a single fruit knife will be sold to Carthage. ”

This is the reason for this war, Maro found out that Elam supplied weapons to Carthage, and after investigating, he found out that it was a city controlled by a monster that was producing these high-quality weapons for Carthage. Caesar then ordered his dagger in the darkness to go to Elam to cut off Elam's supply of weapons to Carthage.

It won't have much of an impact on Carthage, but it's enough to disgust them. So the man was sent to Elam as a member of the Shadow's mastery of rebellion and co-optation. He lived up to the Shadow's expectations, and in just three days, he persuaded the Speaker to destroy Thunder Bluff and promise not to supply Carthaginian weapons again.

Maro, on the other hand, paid 3,000 gold coins and promised to purchase the weapons and resources produced by Elam. In the eyes of the Speaker of the City of Parliament, this is an extremely good deal. Not only will it win him great fame, but he will be re-elected in the election two months later.

Moreover, the materials and technology in Thunder Cliff will also make the people of Council City happy if they are distributed, and Thunder Cliff, which has done so much trade, can be said to be very rich.
