640 Storm Warhammer and Hill Hammer
Chu Xiangqian knew why the elves were not afraid of wolf cavalry sneaking up on their territory.
This is the fantasy world, although the magic strength may not be as strong as the World of Warcraft, but it is a fact that elves can magic.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Chu Xiangqian himself to learn the healing technique after learning from the elves for a while.
Magic extinguishes fires, and many times it doesn't make sense at all.
It's a pity that magic can only be used in the fantasy world, and in the real world, it seems that it can't be used at all because of the lack of magic.
Fortunately, if Chu Xiangqian is injured, he can enter the novice village and recover from his injuries by taking red medicine.
So although orcs can set fires, elves can also use magic to extinguish fires.
Moreover, Chu Xiangqian also knew that in the forest where the elves were located, there were still many magical creatures and tree people.
Angering these creatures with their size, attack, and magic is tantamount to adding allies to the elves.
Most of the places where the elves live are in dense and boundless forests.
As long as the orcs dare to enter the forest, they will basically become the target of the elven marksman.
In the forest, the elves not only do not affect their speed, but also often jump over trees like flat ground.
When orcs enter the forest, their speed will immediately drop a lot.
Kite flying tactics alone can make orcs die as many as they want.
When you get close to the elven city, you basically don't have much combat power.
Even if it is an army of tens of thousands of orcs, the forest elves are not stupid, once they really can't do anything, it's a big deal to transfer.
In this way, for the orcs, the targets are all gone, and then setting fire to the forest, it seems that there is no point except to vent anger.
But it really didn't follow the rules to force the elves to the beginning, with the strength of the elves as marksmen, they rode mounts to shoot the herdsmen and slaves of the orc tribe, and in the end the orcs themselves couldn't stand it.
——
Therefore, after the wolf cavalry entered the boulder pass from the Boulder Mountain Path, they did not enter the forest, but set their sights on the dwarf castle.
The civilians in the dwarven farm outside the high mountain fort only had to organize a part of them to resist when the wolf cavalry suddenly appeared.
But the wolf cavalry has always been reluctant to fight against the enemy.
Immediately split into two teams, bypassing the organized dwarves and chasing down the fleeing dwarven civilians.
In the end, the organized dwarven warriors, with some women and children, hid in Rapids.
When the wolf cavalry saw that they had no chance to storm and quietly retreated, Gaoshan Fort did not dare to send people to transport supplies to Boulder Pass, nor did they dare to send a small force to reinforce Riptide Fort.
Avoid being attacked by wolf cavalry, or follow like a kite, and wait until the reinforcements are not strong enough to charge.
However, this also makes Fort Riptide and Fort Alpine.
On the contrary, the wolf cavalry did not dare to really attack the high mountain fort, lest the dwarves on the side of the rapids fort suddenly kill from behind the wolf cavalry when the battle was at its fiercest.
And the wolf cavalry did not dare to attack Riptide Fort with all their might, it was not that they could not be defeated, in addition to increasing casualties, it was meaningless to fight.
However, on the side of Riptide Castle, there are really not many dwarves who can fight, and there are only about a hundred of them, and there are many female adult dwarves among them.
Although other old and weak women and children also began to be armed, it is difficult to say how effective they are.
After listening to Oleg's story, Chu Xiangqian took out the secret armor, helmet, and leg armor that the elf had created for him from the storage compartment and put them on.
He then carried the elven magic longbow on his back, and the elven sword hung from his waist.
When he was ready for battle, he said to the dwarves, "What do you need me to do?" ”
Oleg and the other old dwarfs, seeing that Chu Qianqian's armor was all on, immediately knew his attitude.
Listening to him again, what is needed, he hurriedly said, "We have more weapons and ammunition, as long as the Alpine Fort and your Riptide Fort defense are okay."
Alpine Fort will send 10 griffon knights and half of the goat cavalry, or 100 troops, into the wasteland to find an opportunity to take out the wolf cavalry. ”
It is indeed not a big problem for one griffin knight to fight three or five wolf cavalry, and the dwarven rider can throw a hammer in the sky first, but if he hits, he will at least be seriously injured.
10 griffin knights in the sky with 100 goat cavalry do have a chance to inflict heavy damage on hundreds of wolf cavalry.
But Chu Xiangqian listened, these 100 goat cavalry faintly meant death squads.
The aim was supposed to inflict heavy losses on the wolf cavalry in order to restore the operation of the supply lines.
In this case, Chu Xiangqian was eager to sell weapons and ammunition to the dwarves.
In the event that the Alpine Fort is breached, or if the combined forces of 3,000 dwarves and elves in the Boulder Pass, as well as the 1,000 dwarves and elven cavalry wandering around, are defeated, then the tripartite balance will be broken.
Although Chu Xiangqian wanted to do business with orcs, he never wanted to see this continent ruled by orcs.
Besides, sell weapons and ammunition to the dwarves for a thousand gold coins.
A thousand rifles are a million gold coins, that is, 10 tons of gold, and the price of a rifle that can be purchased from the Celestial Empire is only a few dozen dollars.
PS: There is a chapter in front of me that writes the price of 3,000 rifles as 3 tons of gold, but I forgot which chapter it was, and I couldn't find it after looking for a while. If you have a great deal of knowledge from that reader, remind me, thank you.
But Chu Qian thought about it, and the rifles he sold to the dwarves and elves combined, there were already 3,000.
And the combined coalition troops who went to Jushi Pass were only 4,000.
Of these, 1,000 are cavalry, and the remaining 3,000 are unlikely to have a rifle in their hands.
That is to say, there are still a thousand rifles that did not go with them.
There are so many riflemen, standing on the walls of the mountain fort, not to mention hundreds of wolf cavalry, even one or two thousand, they are basically sent to death.
Chu Xiangqian secretly cursed in his heart, the dwarf looked honest, but in fact, if anyone thinks that they are upright and scheming, then this person is a big fool.
However, selling two or three hundred rifles, and tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition for the dwarves to defend Riptide Fort, is actually defending the city for themselves.
By the way, the dwarves also used gold to procure.
Chu Xiangqian now has 15,000 Mosingan rifles in his hand, and 500,000 bullets have not yet been sold.
These guns and bullets are naturally exchanged with the above.
Looking at Oleg and a few other dwarves, he said, "In a short time, I can only get three to five hundred rifles and 100,000 rounds of ammunition.
If you want more, at least ten days and eight months, or even longer.
Oleg and the others did not doubt Chu Xiangqian's words, in their hearts, although Gaoshan Fort was already able to imitate the Morgansin rifle, but to create a qualified rifle, not only is it time-consuming and labor-intensive, but the most critical barrel is purely handmade, not to mention the low pass rate, and the labor consumption is also very large.
The dwarves calculated it, and in the end, they still felt that it was more affordable and time-saving to cooperate with Chu Xiangqian.
Don't look at 3,000 rifles, you need 3,000,000 gold coins, that's 30 tons of gold.
But in fact, one cubic meter of gold has a volume of 19.3 tons, and the volume of 30 tons of gold is not as large as the rear compartment of a van.
Even if the gold nuggets were piled up, they would be two and a half people's high.
For the dwarves' massive gold reserves, although they are reluctant, they are only a drop in the bucket.
Now there are three or five hundred rifles, and it is only three or five tons of gold. 100,000 rounds of ammunition is only 100,000 gold coins, that is, 1 ton of gold.
This money doesn't even have to be paid by Alpine Fort, Oleg, as the uncle of the dwarven lord Allison, he can take out so much gold casually.
Of course, as long as Oleg is not stupid, he will not do this.
Otherwise, when Lord Allison returns to Alpine Fort, he will inevitably begin to be jealous of his own uncle.
Chu Xiangqian nodded at the dwarves, "I'll go back and prepare now, if it's fast, I should be able to transport weapons and ammunition before dark." ”
The dwarves nodded excitedly, and Chu Xiangqian had already released the and started looking for the wolf cavalry.
Even if you can't find it for the time being, you can always keep an eye on the surroundings of Riptide Castle, as well as the mountain fort that is not too far away, so as not to be attacked by the wolf cavalry.
Chu said hello to the forward, rode the red rabbit, nodded at Oleg, and returned to the novice village in an instant.
Leaving the red rabbit behind, as soon as his mind moved, he returned to the Erjin courtyard next to Yuetan Park.
I listened to it and made sure that the two sisters, Jin Xiu and Jin Zhi, hadn't gotten up yet.
Then I went back to the house, put on my coat, went out to the state-run breakfast shop to buy breakfast, and came back.
Anyway, I was in no hurry, I accompanied Jin Xiu and Jin Zhi sisters to have breakfast, and went to visit Jin Yiliu, the master and father-in-law, next door to chat.
By the way, let Master Jin test the medical books he memorized during this time.
stayed at Jin's house for a day, and at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, he went out on an excuse to go out on business.
However, Jin Xiu didn't say anything, but Jin Zhi didn't care so much.
My man finally came back, but he stayed for one night and left again during the day, and the little girl was naturally reluctant.
Chu Xiangqian could actually understand Jin Zhi's mood, so he took the sisters back to the courtyard next door, promising to wait for the New Year to be free, take the two of them out around the capital, and even travel to Mount Tai, and the sisters became happy.
Chu Xiangqian returned to the front door's house, pretending to be anxious, and talked to Xue Jinglan, Fei Fei, and Hong Kong Sheng about urgent matters and the need to go out for a few days.
The three daughters-in-law didn't think much about it, anyway, this time they just went out for a few days, compared to the past when they didn't see anyone for a month or two, it's really nothing.
However, Chu Xiangqian still instructed the three of them that if anyone asked, they would say that they had gone out to find a friend, and they would not come back until the evening.
Xue Jinglan and the three couldn't help but get nervous at this time, Chu Xiangqian could only make an excuse and say that he had to accompany the leader on a business trip for a few days, but the itinerary was kept secret, so the three of them were relieved.
By the time they returned to Fort Riptide, the had actually found the wolf cavalry of the hundreds of men.
fly in the sky, in fact, you only need to stare at the forest, valley and other places to find it.
Coupled with the fact that the speed of the is 3 or 400 kilometers per hour, it is indeed not very difficult to find them within 200 kilometers between the Boulder Pass and the Gaoshan Fort.
Therefore, when Chu Xiangqian handed over 400 rifles and 100,000 rounds of ammunition to Oleg and other dwarves, he was ready to leave Riptide Fort at night and hunt the wolf cavalry.
But Chu Xiangqian wouldn't be stupid just thinking about earning experience and doing good deeds, so he naturally had to let the dwarves know.
When he really dragged on, or even defeated this group of wolf cavalry, the dwarves and elves didn't say anything, then it really couldn't be said.
Oleg strongly objected after hearing this, but Chu Xiangqian only wanted to kill these wolf cavalry alone to gain experience, and if he acted alone, once he was really in danger, it would be a big deal to return to the novice village in an instant.
When it is safe, return to Fort Riptide and go out again to fight the wolf cavalry.
On the contrary, if you are accompanied by a goat cavalry, you can't leave the dwarven cavalry behind.
Of course, if you go to a sneak attack and attract the attention of the wolf cavalry, the goat cavalry and griffin knights suddenly rush out, and they can indeed catch the wolf cavalry off guard.
But in this way, it is no problem to repel the wolf cavalry, and there is not so much experience.
Chu Xiangqian could only tell Oleg that acting alone was more conducive to sneak attacks and retreat.
He also promised that this time he went out more to find the traces of the wolf cavalry, and once he found it, he would notify the high mountain fort to attack at night and suddenly attack at dawn, so as to inflict heavy damage on the wolf cavalry at the minimum cost.
Oleg and a few white-bearded dwarves thought for a moment, knowing that what Chu Xiangqian said was right, if they couldn't find the wolf cavalry, the longer it dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for the coalition forces.
But at this time, Chu Xiangqian's importance to the dwarves was perhaps more important than these warriors in the Riptide Castle.
Oleg frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly sighed and took two dwarven warhammers from his back.
In the surprised gaze of the other whitebearded dwarves, it was sent to Chu Xiangqian, "Stark, this pair of Storm Warhammer and Hill Hammer have been following me for 300 years.
Now for you, help me kill a few more wolf cavalry. ”
"Wait", as soon as Oleg finished speaking, a dwarf beside him grabbed Oleg's arm.
"You crazy Oleg, what the hammer of the hill represents, you will not not know."
Oleg shook his shoulders and shook his head at his companion with a firm face, "It's been 5 days since the wolf cavalry cut off the supply line, and if the logistics supply line is not opened, the 4,000 coalition troops at Jushi Pass won't last long."
And I'm guessing that the army of orcs is almost at Boulder Pass. There is no food or grass under the fierce war, and you all know what that means.
Even if 24 planes and griffons could transport supplies back and forth, they would not be enough for the food, grass and ordnance needed by the 4,000 coalition troops. ”
The other dwarves' faces darkened, but some people still felt that the two magic war hammers were given to Chu Xiangqian, and the price was too great.
Even the dwarves would rather give Chu Xiangqian the Storm Warhammer and other dwarven artifacts than give him the Hammer of the Hill.
Chu Xiangqian felt at first that although these two weapons looked like magic weapons, after all, there were faint flashes of gilt light on the two hammers.
But seeing such a white-bearded dwarf stopping Oleg, he immediately guessed that these two hammers must be extraordinary.
But it's right to think about it, Oleg is the uncle of the dwarven lord of Alpine Fort, and the weapon in his hand, even if it is not as powerful as Lord Allison's weapon, must be the most powerful weapon among the alpine dwarves.
Oleg saw Chu Xiangqian's eyes shining brightly, knowing that he had guessed the extraordinaryness of these two weapons.
"Stark, if you can, help me kill all the wolf cavalry. No matter how bad it is, help us open up supply lines. ”
Chu Qianqian was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed, knowing that this was the task requirement for obtaining two war hammers.
As long as it is done, the dwarves will not ask for these two weapons back afterwards.
And Chu Xiangqian just thought about it, and knew that he was completely sure that he could do it.
