Chapter 716: The Future of Blood Gorge City

The goblin's talent for taming beasts is far better than Gavin expected, especially those acquired from the Giant's Plains, who have a long history of taming beasts themselves.

Not only did they use cattle and horses to transport goods, they even tamed crows to exchange information.

It is notorious to train vicious wolves to help them guard prisoners, guard goblin camps, and select the strongest of them to serve as wolf mounts, not to mention the best of them.

Some goblin tribes even train ferocious carnivorous apes to serve as their battle beasts.

Gavin also sent a part of the elf druids to help domesticate those giant wild animals in the early days, and when the big goblins were tapped out of this ability, they were withdrawn one after another.

Because there is also ancient hostility and hatred between the big goblins and the elves and the elves, they attack the elves without any reason, and on the battlefield, they will even abandon the existing enemies, and they will also give priority to attacking the elves, which will lead to the doom of destruction.

This innate thing is the most difficult to change.

Gavin wasn't prepared to spend much energy on this for the time being, and it was better to keep their distance from the two.

"The wealth accumulated over the years in the Giant Plains has been almost squeezed out by us, and winter is approaching, and the lord will use troops on a large scale in other directions, so I want to hold a tribal assembly in the Giant Plains, and invite the chiefs and leaders of all the surrounding races and tribes to participate, sign a covenant for peaceful coexistence, a temporary truce, peaceful coexistence and common development."

Bloodclaw was prepared.

The goblins themselves are a military race, with a strong focus on tactics and discipline, and those leaders are the most powerful and strategically minded of the warband tribes, capable of leading their tribes in the execution of complex battle plans.

Their ethnicity is inherently consistent with the Lady Strategists' beliefs, and when Gavin sends them a large number of exclusive sacrifices to teach them more systematic planning, strategy, and tactics, they are naturally hungry for knowledge that is useful to them.

They had already begun to set up their own strategy team, following the staff system of the conqueror's army, each battle commander would be accompanied by one or two staff officers, responsible for advice, logistics management and support, and Bloodclaw had more than a dozen goblin chiefs around him to help them manage the entire Bloodgorge City.

"This proposal is very good, Blood Gorge City should indeed stop, properly digest and stabilize the current gains, especially with the help of the super giant road god statue, expanding the branch roads of the Giant Plains is the key to your next stable rule, I will form a new road repair team to assist you in building roads on a large scale in the Giant Plains.

As long as you have a dense enough road, you only need to have two thousand elite goblin wolf cavalry, and with those goblin militia, it is enough to firmly control the entire Giant Plain in your own hands.

Upgrade all of your goblin infantry in Blood Gorge City to goblin wolf cavalry, and next, I will draw at least three thousand goblin wolf cavalry from you. ”

From the very beginning, Gavin's positioning of Blood Gorge City was a large barracks of his own, continuously providing himself with powerful goblin troops, and since it was formed so quickly, it was natural to draw elites from it for his own use.

The superiority of the goblin wolf cavalry was never on the plains, but in the rugged mountains and wilderness.

The rocky terrain with complex terrain will give them a chance to show their strengths, and will be an important trump card in Gavin's hands when it comes to fighting the invasion of the Tucan nomads.

"I don't want to turn all the goblins into wolf cavalry." Bloodclaw said helplessly, "But it is never the rider who limits the number of wolf cavalry, but the mount, and only those large-sized dire wolves and ferocious wolves are qualified to be our mounts."

The number of our goblin wolf cavalry can reach more than 2,000, or thanks to the huge wild wolves produced on the Giant Plains, otherwise it would be good to have thousands.

In the entire Giant Plains, the giant wolves that can be collected have been almost collected by us, in a short period of time, where can we get so many wolf mounts? The 3,000 wild wolves we domesticated are just ordinary wild wolves that can become goblin mounts, but they can't become our goblins. ”

"Select the right goblins and suitable horses, and form a force of thousands of goblin heavy cavalry, with the cooperation of convenient roads and teleportation tactics, the plains will be the world of heavy cavalry.

The remaining 2,000 goblins are all formed into the goblin light cavalry, you keep 1,000, and the remaining 1,000 plus the 2,000 goblin wolf cavalry will be all given to me, and I will gradually replace their mounts as I use them.

It is believed that it is no problem to scavenge a thousand suitable wolf mounts from the rocks and goblin border wastes. Gavin offered a compromise.

"This is another problem we are facing, we are now seriously under-equipped, not to mention that the heavy cavalry eats the most is equipment." Bloodclaw was surprised and had a sad look that couldn't be concealed.

Heavy cavalry who does not like.

In particular, the heavy cavalry composed of goblins with an average height of two meters per capita is definitely a torrent of steel on the plains, demonstrating their strong force, and the deterrent effect is far above the goblin wolf cavalry.

But this class is too much equipment.

"I have already expected your predicament, and the three thousand goblin cavalry transferred to my side, except for the basic survival materials and mounts, all their equipment is left in Blood Gorge City, and when they catch up, I will arm them separately.

In addition, I have reached a cooperation agreement with the dwarves of the Iron Clan, and their True Shield Trading Company will send a group of dwarven blacksmiths to Bloodgap City in less than ten days, and after the iron ore of Colossus City is smelted into dwarven steel ingots in Ritarbun, some of them will be transported over to customize equipment for you.

But whether it's the dwarven blacksmith's commission or the purchase of the dwarven steel ingot, you need to pay for it yourself. ”

When Gavin solved the equipment problem for the conqueror's army, he naturally took Bloodgap City into account.

"No problem, the lord has already solved the biggest problem for us." Bloodclaw nodded without hesitation, and with more than 200,000 animals and most of the output of the Giant Plains, he can be regarded as wealthy.

What they lack is only channels, not money.

The speed at which Blood Gorge City is developing in the Giant Plains is really too fast, and now it's not just the monster tribes on the Giant Plains that can't sleep well.

The leaders of the surrounding human forces have also begun to lose sleep all night, so it is naturally impossible to sell them equipment in large quantities.

Even Raymond, the city lord of Retaven City, who had been friendly with Gavin from the beginning, expressed his concern about the rapid development of Bloodgap City, intentionally or unintentionally, during these contacts.

Another added benefit of Gavin's massive deployment of the Great Goblins' elite forces from Bloodgits was to reassure them and prevent them from taking more extreme restrictive measures against Bloodgistlet.

Bloodgap City will be developed as an important trade transit city in the future.

"Are there any other questions in your development?" Gavin asked.

"There is indeed another problem that needs to be solved by the lord, and the elves of the forest of Sylminster are very angry that we have built a city near their forest, and have already killed hundreds of our goblin servants who have entered the forest to collect firewood." Bloodclaw's face had an unconcealed look of anger.

Although they don't usually take the lives of goblin minions into their eyes, it's one thing to be consumed by them as war consumables, and it's another thing to be killed for no reason, especially the elves lurking in the forest.

"You're trying to cut down the trees in the Silminster Forest?" Gavin involuntarily raised his eyebrows, this is a big trouble, once it is not handled well, the little good reputation he has built up among the elves will be ruined by most of it.

"No, we fully follow the lord's sustainable development strategy, only send those goblin servants to collect those trees and branches that have died naturally, and have not cut down a single living tree, and most of our firewood is still based on the dry manure of the herd."

Bloodclaw patted his chest and reassured, "I've been trying to suppress the anger of the soldiers, but if this continues, once those elves aim their sharp arrows at the goblin soldiers, it's hard to guarantee that they won't fight back." ”

"As long as you are sure that you are not stained with the blood of the elves, there is room for maneuver in this matter, and I will go to Siarminster Forest as soon as possible to make contact with the elves there to see if we can improve the relationship between the two sides and reach a friendly agreement." Gavin attached great importance to this matter and mentioned it as one of the first few things to be solved.

"Thank you, Lord." Bloodclaw bowed and thanked him, "There is another matter, I think the lord should know, not long ago, the Council of the Six Regiments of Ammu sent an envoy to read to us the ownership of the surrounding lands by the Kingdom of Am, and let us surrender to the Kingdom of Am. ”

"Hey, they have this face to pick peaches." Gavin couldn't help but sneer, "They don't have a large city within a radius of three hundred kilometers, how can they call this their land?" What did you do with them? ”

The old neighbor to the north of the Tesser, the Kingdom of Am, has a very similar nature to that of the Kingdom of Sambia, and is a plutocratic government.

But there are big differences between the two.

The kingdom of Sambia is ruled by a merchant council elected by a commander, a bit of a presidential system, in order to win the position of the commander, they will form gangs, crazy promises of benefits, collect political donations, etc., the infighting is very serious.

The kingdom of Amm is ruled by a group called the Council of the Six, who hide their identities from the world and only know their identities from each other, hence the name "Council of the Six of Am", or the Masked Council.

Although no one knows the identities of these six people, one thing is certain: they have the wealth and power of the country.

However, many people know that even these six people are not exactly the true rulers of the Amm Kingdom, but puppets and spokesmen who have been supported to the table by more powerful beings.

Gavin knew at least two of the people behind the scenes.

One is Iveco LS Gran, she is an ancient blue dragon, many people don't know her name alone, but her nickname has resounded in the Faeron continent for many years, in the Am, Tessel, and Kalinshan regions, it can have the effect of stopping children's crying, and many parents will say when they scare their children, if you are disobedient, you will be sent to sharp-toothed teeth.

She is the destroyer of the Shane Dynasty and the disaster of Shane, and has the reputation of "sharp teeth".

Speaking of her nickname, we have to talk about the history of Am, Tessel, and Karinsan, where there was once a powerful and unified kingdom that ruled for thousands of years, occupying a territory larger than the Three Kingdoms, and many things about the three countries were passed down from this dynasty, which was the Shane Dynasty.

As you can tell by Sharp Tooth's nickname, she is a disaster for the dynasty, and she is seen as the cause of its destruction and decline, and a thousand years ago, she fought a final battle with the last emperor of the Shaon dynasty, Shane VII.

During this battle, she gnawed off Shane VII's left arm and right leg, earning her the most common nickname, "Sharp Teeth", and it is said that her teeth are indeed more developed than ordinary blue dragons, and they are always exposed, as if she is giving a hideous sneer.

As we all know, this ancient blue dragon's lair is in the Broken Tooth Mountains on the border between Tesel and Am, her dragon's lair has accumulated more wealth than the mountain, gold coins are the cheapest existence, there are countless gems, powerful magical equipment, and even a dozen artifacts, enough to buy the next country, because she once forced the ancient empire of the Shane Dynasty to pay tribute to her for many years, and after its destruction, it emptied most of his palace treasury.

But even the most stupid thief would not beat her mind.

Because her dragon servants and agents are all over the surrounding countries, and before you can take action, they have already secretly arrested you, even if you are lucky enough to escape and rush into the Broken Tooth Mountains, what awaits you is not a treasure like a mountain, but the hideous sneer of a sharp-toothed cat playing with a mouse.

She is an alternative among the dragons, she is not only interested in wealth, she is interested in power, she also has an interest in phenomenal, she is like a shadow, entrenched in the land that has been ruled by the Shane dynasty for many years, and manipulates the situation here at will.

Although there is no evidence, whether it is Am, Tessel, or Kalinshan, many people firmly believe that among them there are agents supported by sharp teeth, who help her take care of her property and land and protect her safety during her dragon sleep, although she does not need it, but it is always a bad thing to be woken up from a deep sleep by a little mouse.

The changes in the situation of the three kingdoms over the past thousand years are inseparable from her, because whenever their situation changes significantly, they are all in the period of the awakening of this greedy blue dragon, including the turmoil of the Tesser's kingdom for the last half century, which is said to be her handiwork, in order to take her own tribute from the palace treasures of the Thassel royal family.

These rumors cannot be confirmed, but one thing is certain: at least one of the six members of the Council of Amm is her agent.

Thankfully, this primeval blue dragon spends most of its time in dragon sleep, and each time it wakes up, it is active for a short time, rarely more than half a year.

For more than half a century, no one had seen her massive figure in the sky infesting the Broken Tooth Mountains.

But in the next ten years, she will enter a period of frequent activity and begin to create a new history of her own.

Because of her thousand-year-old enemy, Sean VII took advantage of the turmoil of the turbulent year, broke away from the self-seal, was reborn through the backdoor, and launched a thousand-year revenge on her.

Known as the greatest, smartest, and saddest emperor of the Shane dynasty, he deliberately faked his death in order to avenge himself, in effect, transforming himself into a demigod lich.

The secret war between the two will once again unfold in the old land of the Shane Dynasty, which will have an extremely far-reaching impact here.

The starting point of this secret war was Am, which began when Sean VII infiltrated the Masked Council, and their masked secret nature provided him with a perfect opportunity.

The resurrection of Sean VII is still a top secret, or rather, Gavin has no way of knowing for sure whether he has been resurrected or not, only that it happened this year.

Therefore, there is no need to consider this for the time being, they are on Am's side, and the main consideration is the attitude of the six-member council on the surface.

"That's what I answered them, and I drove them away." As an outsider's blood claw, he didn't know how deep the water here was, so he directly took the strongest measures.

Gavin thought about it for a moment, nodded, and said, "You're doing a great job, go ahead and see what they do next." ”

Taking a tough stance on the six-member council of the Amm Kingdom is not simply because Bloodgap City is deep inland, nearly a thousand kilometers away from the coastal area where the main body of Amm is located, and they can't reach it.

Two years later, at the beginning of 1361, there was an event that had a huge impact on the west coast of the entire continent of Faren - the New World Aztec, which was discovered by the Amm mercenary merchant Kaudl and his Golden Legion.

When the news reached the West Coast, all the merchants and pirates went insane, especially Am, Tether, and Kalinsan, who had assembled huge exploration fleets to explore the New World.

When a fleet laden with gold and Aztec specialties returned a few years later, the gold rush reached an unprecedented peak.

As long as there is a sampan, he wants to go to the sea, and he wants to go to the New World Aztec, as if the gold there can be picked up at will, and the danger of the Traceless Sea does not exist.

Zalanda in his previous life rose through this shareholder wind.

It's not that she joined this gold rush, on the contrary, she didn't join it, but desperately gathered strength in the Tesser's country, and sat big while everyone was blinded by gold.

The nearest route from the continent of Faren to Aztec is also five or six thousand kilometers, and it is full of countless dangers, and if it were so easy to reach, it would not have been discovered by the world now.

Those thirsters for riches only saw the riches, but not the mottled blood stains on themβ€”both the natives of the Aztec continent and the gold diggers.

Only a few brought back wealth, and most of the gold diggers died in the sea without a trace.
