Solomon pushed open the door wrapped in flannel and animal skin, and met the current patriarchs of the Rhine and Walls tribes, Rockefeller and Joseph, the latter whom he had met before, when Solomon was still weak, but now he could roughly know that these two were not only Gao Jie, but also quasi-legendary level warriors.

"It is a great pleasure to see you, my friend. Solomon smiled and sat down in front of them.

"Well, I like that, my friend. Rockefeller, with blond hair hanging down his shoulders and a rugged appearance, especially with a thick nose, laughed, "Does that mean you can do something for the Rhine?"

Joseph also immediately looked at Solomon, and Solomon said with a calm expression: "Of course there is no problem, friends have the righteousness of wealth, I don't know what the Rhine needs us to do?"

"Hahahaha, we don't really need you to do anything, we are building a city like your Terran, it would be great if you would send some craftsmen to help us, besides, we want to build a road connecting Cigruru and the Free City. Rockefeller said slowly.

"No problem, I'll bring it up to the cabinet when I get back, and even if they don't, I can help with it personally. Solomon agreed without thinking about it.

Rockefeller's face was slightly relaxed, and he nodded imperceptibly to Joseph.

Joseph said, "It seems that we are indeed friends. Well, Marquis Solomon. This time you asked Franklin to meet us. Do you have any plans to sue us?"

Solomon nodded and said, "I do have something I want to talk to you about. That's why the two of them came here. That's right, I'm here to tell you two that Asturias is in Yugudral's form shΓ¬ is a bit bad right now. ”

Rockefeller's face immediately changed, and he said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by that? Are you going to give up there?"

"Of course not, His Majesty Edward has already gone to defend it himself, but this time the situation is indeed different from the past, the aboriginal empire there has launched a fierce offensive, and it is likely that the war will spread to our territory there. When the time comes, the two cities occupied by your two tribes will probably be drawn into the war. Solomon said.

Rockefeller and Joseph looked at each other with a slightly ugly face, after the relationship with the human race eased, the mutual trade between the two races and other orc tribes attached to the two races and Asturias was ten times greater than before, except for the free city, which is all-weather, some border cities also made mutual trade with the orcs, and there will be a similar market almost every two months, the latter is more useful to Wall, because compared to the free city, Wall is farther than Joseph.

The life of the orcs is much richer because of this, but they have to buy things from the Terrans. Trade alone was not enough, as the two cities that Walls and Rhine had gained by following Asturias into Ugudral were now their current source of income, and they could receive taxes by ruling them by force. At the same time, it is also possible to trade there.

The orcs' previously self-sufficient economy began to break the ice after coming into contact with the Free City, and the expansion of border trade in recent years has gradually broken down, and in order to trade good things in the hands of the Terrans, they began to have the concept of currency, and they needed more money.

More money, the income from trade alone is limited, the two cities in Yugudral, which are equivalent to the otherworldly colonies of the orcs, they have already tasted the sweetness from it, of course, for the development of the colony, they are still novices, and they are very amateurs, and they can only hire the financial officer of the human race to help for the time being, but the most intelligent people of the two races have been sent there.

Winston and Siddy Park were leading the way, a new source of money and a place of experimentation for them to learn management, just as Rhine was trying to build a new city of their own, Sigruru, which would be run by Sidipark.

But Solomon is now telling them that Yugudral's form is not good, and there are too many hints in this.

Originally, the orcs entered as mercenaries, and the two cities were paid, and Asturias was willing to help help rule, except for paying the hired Terran treasurer and clerk, the taxes and other benefits of the city were all owned by the two tribes.

There, the orcs and Asturias became quasi-allies, supporting each other.

But according to Solomon's current meaning, it can be understood that Asturias wants to tell the orcs that they have taken care of themselves.

However, Joseph and Rockefeller can become patriarchs, and they are definitely not stupid, and they heard Solomon's true meaning, so they couldn't help but say coldly: "You actually want to say that you are in trouble there, and you need us to increase manpower to help, right?"

This is indeed what Solomon really meant, he tried according to Perseus's instructions to see if he could get reinforcements from the orcs, if the orcs were willing to increase reinforcements in order to keep the two cities there, then the pressure on Yugudral could be reduced, or even if it was really a fight, it would be a little more certain.

However, based on Solomon's experience with orcs, you can't just say that Asturias is no longer working in Yugudral, and needs your help, which is not okay. This will make the orcs take the opportunity to open their mouths, and the orcs have always respected the strong and brave, you are neither strong nor brave, it will only make them look down on you, and even the idea of beating you in turn may not be said.

"Asturias will naturally fight to the last drop of blood in Yugudral's territory. Solomon said lightly, "However, I am afraid that it will be difficult to balance the two cities ruled by Sidipark and Winston, and they need to be careful themselves, so I have come to tell you." ”

"Hehe, don't tell lies in front of real people, Marquis Solomon. Joseph sneered, "If you really don't want us to help, just inform my son directly." Since they came to meet with us, why hide their intentions. ”

"If Rhine and Wolf can increase reinforcements, and everyone supports each other, the odds of victory will certainly be a few more points. Besides, even if it is to sue SΓΉ Winston and Sidi Parker first. They are to report the news back to the clan. Still bothering me. Solomon said.

"Hmph, that's because the teleportation channel is always in the hands of your Terrans. Rockefeller said with some exasperation.

"Hehe, why should the patriarch be angry? Didn't I already tell the two of you the cost of construction and maintenance through GuΓ² Franklin?" said Solomon.

Rockefeller and Joseph were dumbfounded, the orcs first wanted to get the construction method of the teleportation magic array, and later it was pointed out that their beast god magic and totem did not have the conditions for building teleportation, and occasionally there were strong people who had a spell-like ability similar to teleportation that originated from the special of some bloodlines, if they wanted to teleport like the human race, they either turned to learn the magic system of the human race. Either they will develop the construction of teleportation channels from their magic and totems like the Terrans, but it is unknown how long the latter will take.

So later the orcs changed their conditions and became their hires, in addition to the normal pay, Asturias took them to "play", and after the war they got two cities as colonies, and the result was that they were all happy.

However, Rhine and Wolf were always concerned about their inability to have a teleportation channel, so they tried to dispel their suspicions, and also to dispel the suspicions of the orcs, so that everyone could work together without a mustard in Yugudral. Solomon, with Edward's permission, gave a special explanation to both tribes.

There are two types of conveyor channels in the broad category. One is the teleportation channel within the plane, which is relatively easy to build, and the cost of teleportation is much less, theoretically the farther you go, the more mana is needed. (However, some special environments are not necessarily, such as the teleportation location is icy and snowy, and the source power consumed is more than normal)

The other type is the interdimensional teleportation, the basic construction alone is much more expensive, Solomon's portal in the Black Rock plane is also the early construction of Asturias, and there is a more serious problem, that is, daily maintenance, you must know that the interdimensional teleportation is dangerous, if the magic array problem cannot be repaired in time, it will increase the probability of time lapse or teleportation failure, so in addition to the need for a stable supply of source power, it is also necessary to have a magician for daily maintenance.

Therefore, all the countries of the Terran race have built a teleportation hall, and the teleportation channels leading to the heterotopic plane are concentrated in the teleportation hall, which can facilitate the dispatch of troops for protection, and more importantly, it can be maintained by the magicians, otherwise the east and west will be one and the west, and each place will have to be defended by heavy troops, and the magicians will not be enough;

In the past, only powerful families like the three dukes could set up one or two additional teleportation channels in the deepest part of their own family belongings, but portals like Farusion were also in the teleportation hall.

The three major dukes' families can afford to be consumed, and there are enough magicians to maintain them, but the orcs don't, even if they build a teleportation channel, daily maintenance is a big problem.

Just hiring enough magicians to do the day-to-day maintenance would cost them the hard currency Mithril coinage they had now, and it was clear that even Rockefeller couldn't get all of his people to pay for the money they earned from Free City.

However, although there was a reasonable explanation, it is clear that Joseph and Rockefeller were still obsessed.

"Both, to fundamentally solve the construction of the teleportation array, I told Sidipak a long time ago, and you still need to master it one day. Mages are not ubiquitous, even in our human race, and are much rarer than warriors of the same rank, because they are not only capable of fighting, but also the embodiment of knowledge. Solomon said patiently, "If you are always suspicious of this, it is better to send your people to study at the Terran Magician Academy, and your own people will not doubt it anymore when they have mastered the construction." ”

"However, there aren't many places in your Terran Academy, and magic seems to be difficult to learn. Joseph said.

Solomon said angrily, " Magic is indeed not easy to master, but if it's all cabbage, why do you need it, I can give your people the opportunity to learn magic, but whether you can learn it or not is your own business; as for the number of places in the academy, I don't deny that there are not many, but it will definitely change in the future, I came here to negotiate with Chris, and plan to turn his half-research and half-study base into a branch of the Kingdom Magic Academy, so that the mages in the nearby area have a place where they can gather and return, where if they have excellent grades or outstanding performances, they can be recommended by the branch to the academy in St. Quentin, and there are schools that can train magic apprentices can also be promoted to other cities, all of which can give you orcs some places. ”

Rockefeller and Joseph couldn't help but be moved. The two looked at each other. I don't understand that Solomon has opened all the conditions to this point. The hope is to get out of their mouths the reinforcement of the army Yugudral.

Solomon also looked at the two of them tightly, this is almost the bottom limit of the conditions he can offer, if the orcs really master the construction of the teleportation array, other human countries are estimated to jump to their feet, but Solomon really thinks that Yugudral's sudden change in the wind and clouds this time is unusual, if it can be said that the orcs will be more beneficial to Asturias, and can share the pressure of Edward, anyway, Edward can be regarded as promoting him. It's the future father-in-law again, and the orcs really master the construction of the teleportation array in the future, and it is also the other countries and the Church of Light that jump a little more, and get through the current difficulties first.

Besides, with the wisdom of the orc tribe, it is not so easy to grasp. The wiser of the orcs tend to be the ones who become priests, and the Fawkes, Smayers, and Sreks also have some priests. If orcs were given the opportunity to learn magic, it would be these three tribes that would most likely be mastered, not Wolf and Rhine.

With Wolf and Rhine each having a city in Ugudrar, Solomon was somewhat sure that he would be able to move them to increase their troops.

But what was unexpected was that Rockefeller and Joseph smiled bitterly. Joseph said to Rockefeller, "It's better for you." ”

Rockefeller smiled bitterly: "Solomon, if I sue you no matter what, neither we nor Wolf can increase the number of troops in Yugudral. If it's even so dangerous that you want to withdraw to Winston and Sidipark, I wonder what you'd think?"

This unexpected answer made Solomon's brow furrow, and he said in a deep voice, "I want to know why. ”

"Well, I sue you. Rockefeller sighed, "Because the struggle for power in the royal court is over." ”

"King Beamon is an adult. "Solomon immediately understood the key, when he first arrived in the Free City, at that time, the Western Beast Plains was in a semi-independent state, not the Rhine, in fact, Wolf, and the Tygo clan of the Eastern Beast Plains, and some other powerful tribes were all doing their own thing, so the Rhine was able to unite with Wolf to interfere in Modo's plan to annex the Free City.

The reason is that the old King Beamon had passed away at that time, the new King Beamon was not yet an adult, and the orcs were in the royal court of the Tianhuo Plateau, and they were in a power struggle.

And now, as King Beamon has come of age and his power has reached the realm of legends, all the controversy has been subdued in the face of this powerful force, the priests of the regent have returned to power, and the royal court of the orcs has returned to the shroud of Beamon's will.

King Beamon, of course, would not allow the tribes to scatter and even fight each other as before, so he issued an order for Tiger and Rhine to put aside the fighting.

So both Rhine and Tiger were faced with a choice, whether to listen to the royal court again. If you try to resist, it could mean a civil war for the orcs.

"Are you going to resist the orc court?" said Solomon.

"Do you want us to continue to obey?" Joseph sneered, "If we continue to obey, I believe that when all the tribes begin to respect the orders of the royal court again, there will be no more such harmonious scenes, and the royal court will probably ask the tribes to attack your human race again." ”

Solomon's face changed, this is possible, the new King Beamon is not like the old King Beamon, young means vigorous, and foreign wars can divert contradictions.

Thinking about it this way, Solomon also understood that at the beginning, the Rockefellers and his two proposed to him to help build Chigloru did not really care about any assistance, but more likely to take the opportunity to see the attitude of Asturias and Solomon towards the two tribes.

Solomon's eyes couldn't help but darken, it seems that the path of orc reinforcements will not work, but they must find a way to stabilize the two clans, and when Yugudral starts the war, Rhine and Wolf will fall back to the orc royal court, otherwise the border peace in Asturias will no longer exist, and a large number of troops will be needed to defend it.

"It's not just us who are big now, hmph, Tygo is not much better than us, their relationship with Turing City in your Terran Aurora Kingdom is a bit similar to us and Free City, and now we and Tigergo are silent, wanting to wait for the other party to react to the royal court's orders first. Rockefeller said.

"Why don't you consider joining Asturias?" said Solomon, slowly, "for more than ten years, you have also been in good harmony with the Free City, proving that the Terrans and Orcs are not incapable of living together. If you are willing to join, Asturian will welcome you, and I can speak to the cabinet and His Majesty Edward on my behalf, and if you are willing to become the people of Asturias, I will give you all my support in the rebellion against the royal court. ”

"Hmph, you were still hoping that we would send troops to Yugudral, where does Asturias have the strength to support us now?" said Joseph.

"It's true that Asturias can't afford to fight two high-intensity wars at the same time, but if you can delay for a while, you'll have enough military strength to support it. Solomon said.

The intensity of the war in Yugudlar will increase, if the Gurumbel Empire launches a full-scale war, it represents the real combat power of the silver-level plane, but they have fought the other countries of the aborigines have been united to fight, which is different from the intensity of the previous battle, and if the orcs restart the war, the intensity of the war will not be inferior; the kingdom's army now has to maintain the occupation of the alien plane, but also defend the homeland, which is already the limit, and it is impossible to send troops to reinforce Wolf and Rhine now.

But if it can break out a year later, it may not be impossible to interfere in the orc's civil war.

The reason for this is that the armament of the guns will enable some non-main army corps and local guards in the country to greatly increase their attack and lethal capabilities, so that some troops who could only participate in the maintenance of the occupied areas in the past will be qualified to participate in high-intensity battles, so as to have more troops. However, it takes time to train and train the firecrackers, and Solomon's production line of sequence magic and machinery has not yet been built, so it is not easy to achieve the assembly in the workshop alone.

"However, it can be supported materially, and if you need equipment, I can find a way for you. Solomon said.

"Not at the moment. Solomon, let's be honest, we don't want to go back to the obedience to the royal court in the past, we are quite satisfied with the current life, of course it would be better if it could be better. But there is a price to pay for fighting against the royal court, first of all, we need you not to betray your faith, otherwise we can only fall to the royal court, but it does not mean that we need to join Asturias. Rockefeller said.

Solomon was not angry, and he didn't expect a few words to make Rhine and Wolf turn their heads and worship the eldest brother, but said puzzledly: "But I don't quite understand, if you refuse to accept the orders of the royal court, will the royal court have a way to deal with you?"

"Absolutely. Joseph said, "There is also a Wolf on the side of the royal court, and there is also a Rhine, and there is also a Tygo, but the number is scarce, do you understand? If we refuse to obey, the royal court will crusade one by one, defeat one by one, and let Wolf or Lane on the side of the Heavenly Fire Plateau send someone to take over the tribe, because it is the same tribe, and our people are more likely to accept it." ”

"How could there be one over there?" said Solomon, puzzled.

"This is the power of the royal court, whenever two or more strong clans of other tribes compete for the leader of the clan, and after one of them fails, the royal court will recognize the winner as the patriarch, and at the same time, in the name of mediation, the losing family will be taken away and sent to the vicinity of the Tianhuo Plateau to be taken care of. ”

Solomon couldn't help but realize that this was deliberately used to contain the chiefs of the various tribes, and if they refused to obey, the royal court would help the branch that had competed with them to return and seize the throne.
