Chapter 424, Army Chief Editor

"Humans have always relied on the technology of the dwarves. Since many years ago, the dwarves have always produced the best."

In the Earl of Glamorgan in spring, Ryan and Bellegar walked on the field ridge one after the other, heading towards the dwarf settlement.

Along the way, Bellegar kept chattering, and Ryan listened most of the time, only occasionally answering a few words.

Neither Morgana nor Olika followed, and only his butler, Katzenberg, followed Ryan. Seeing that Ryan and Katzenberg were listening carefully, Bellega opened the conversation. Let’s talk about the glorious history of the Langde clan, how prosperous and powerful Bafeng Mountain was at that time, how they persisted for hundreds of years in the pinch of green skins and ratmen, but in the end they were still unable to fight, so they had to choose to withdraw Bafeng Mountain, started his wandering journey.

"Since you had a population of 100,000 and were unable to defend Mount Eight Peaks from the siege of the Greenskins and Ratmen, why are you, King Belega, confident that you can form an expeditionary force to regain Mount Eight Peaks?" Steward Katzenberg said. asked curiously.

"Neither the greenskins nor the ratmen's attack is better than before. When we defended Eight Peaks, that was the time when the greenskins were the strongest. During the earthquake, the ratmen and the greenskin frenzy, at least half of the dwarf fortresses were destroyed. It has fallen." Bellegar was quite unconvinced when he talked about this humiliating history, and he continued: "But later, Charlemagne established the empire and signed the 'Holy Alliance' with the Dwarf High King. A huge coalition army was established to deal with the largest greenskin frenzy in the history of the invasion. The war was fought from sunrise to sunset. The human and dwarf coalition forces completely defeated the greenskin attack. The heavy losses of this war made the greenskins It took hundreds of years to recover, and no greenskin warlord can organize a waaagh on the scale of the first battle of Blackfire Pass!, Humph! If we can hold out until the Battle of Blackfire Pass , Bafeng Mountain will definitely be able to hold on."

Ryan understood a bit. Although the dwarves are not as good as before, the scale and combat effectiveness of the green skins are not as good as when they attacked Bafeng Mountain. The pattern of the Horde, after that, no matter which greenskin warlord, such as the late "Ironclaw" Gorbad, "King of the Belly" Gollum, or the living and famous Grimg-Ironhide, "Green Prophet" Ur Zag or "Warrior of Eight Peaks" Skarsnik, they can command nothing more than a tribe.

"So, you humans have really benefited a lot from our dwarves. How much did the dwarves pay when they helped Charlemagne unify the empire? Yes, this is indeed what the dwarves owe you. After all, if it wasn't for Charlemagne who saved us The High King of the dwarves at that time, perhaps the blood of the High King family of Karaz-a-Kalak has long since died out, but I hope you can also repay your kindness. If you want me to help you attack the Blackstone stronghold, there is no problem. Here." Bellegar patted his chest, but kept his eyes on Ryan.

The implication is that you must remember the expedition to Bafeng Mountain! I, Bellegar, helped you this time, and it will be your turn to help us next time! Can't go back on my word.

Ryan nodded with a smile. He remembered what happened when the empire was established. Indeed, without the help of the dwarves, Charlemagne might not have been able to establish the empire.

As we all know, Charlemagne united twelve human tribes to establish an empire, but in a series of wars, Charlemagne actually encountered many obstacles.

Among them, the most fierce opposition was the Thuringian tribe at that time, that is, the Middenlanders (part) of the empire. The king of the Thuringian tribe at that time was called "Mad King" Ochun.

After Charlemagne basically unified or defeated most of the human tribes, he and his tribes always refused to surrender or submit. Ao Chun laughed at other tribes for bowing their knees at Charlemagne's feet, and he, as a real pure man He will only happily go to the main shrine of Urik and offer his loyalty to the white wolf Urik.

In order to solve the last force that was unwilling to submit to himself, Charlemagne united the tribes to launch a war of conquest, and the Thuringian tribe also assembled a large army to prepare for the battle. The army of the tribe was dumbfounded.

With the help of the dwarves, the Carolingian tribe has been fully equipped with chain mail and breastplate, and is armed with excellent dwarf-style equipment. The leader, Charlemagne, is wearing full-body plate armor of dwarf-enchanted rune meteorite, and holds the artifact warhammer Gail- Malaz, ready to launch the final attack on the Thuringians.

Dwarven catapults, dwarven ballistas, dwarven hard bows, and dwarven chariots have all been arranged.

The tribes of the Thuringians are still wearing leather armor made of animal skins, and many tribal warriors are still shirtless and wearing wolf skins. The weapons in their hands are simple tomahawks and spears made of stone, and simple Bows and arrows, and even decent long swords are rare.

This is not an era, how can this be fought? The Thuringians took the lead against Charlemagne's Carolingian tribe? Not to mention that Charlemagne unified the tribes of mankind, and both the number of troops and the number of cavalry were firmly above the Thuringians.

In the confrontation on the first day of the new year, even the stubborn Thuringians were forced to retreat, but out of respect for fellow human beings, Charlemagne did not order them to be exterminated. An ultimatum, calling for a championship showdown.

The mad king Ao Chun had no choice but to fight, and the two greatest human warriors had an epic championship duel. Man withstood the crazy onslaught of the mad king Ochun and defeated him in front of Ulric's sacred flame.

The mad king Aochun faced two choices, either the entire tribe would be slaughtered, or he would choose to surrender. In Urick's will, the mad king Aochun knew that Charlemagne was the chosen champion of the white wolf Urick. A pure man will be responsible for the result of the championship matchup.

From that day on, the powerful Thuringians declared their surrender, and the territory of the empire was established for the first time.

After thinking about a series of stories, Ryan turned his attention back to Belegar: "King Belegar, how many people have you come this time?"

"About three thousand, two thousand of them are excellent fighters." Bellegar nodded, and he said roughly: "After a long journey, everyone is exhausted, Ryan, you have to arrange their accommodation well."

"There is no problem with this. You can find Katzenberg if you have anything to do." Ryan dumped the burden on Katzenberg. The butler could only smile wryly. The dwarves' requests are often many and troublesome, and they are picky and exhausting. Come on, it gave him a headache every time Lion asked him to deal with the dwarves.

Fortunately, the dukes of Brittania are supportive of Ryan and Francois' plan to jointly attack the Blackstone stronghold. François vowed to cut Kemmler's remaining head into pieces.

His father-in-law is rich, and the Wenford Principality is very rich, so Ryan doesn't have to worry about military expenses.

"My army has been formed, and no amount of you and your territory will be able to sustain it." Bellega expressed his understanding of this aspect. The King of Eight Peaks Mountain already knew how to raise military funds and pay military salaries when he attacked Eight Peaks Mountain many times. difficulty.

Due to the lack of maintenance equipment and supply logistics in the base area, and no mortgage, Bellegar has always had to pay much higher military salaries and maintenance fees than normal.

When they came to the camp of the Angrund clan, a large group of dwarves had already camped and rested, and the smoke was floating in the sky. Ryan's men were transporting carts of grain, vegetables, meat, ale and daily necessities to within the camp.

"My chief engineer Hal Haver-Gold Digger and I will use your workshop to produce siege weapons, mainly cannons and organ guns." Bellegar-Hammer said to Ryan: "We will ally you Attack the Blackstone stronghold, this is all our army establishment."

Bellegar handed over a parchment, which stated the troops that the Anglund clan planned to participate in this military operation.

The legendary lord of the dwarves, the king of the Angrund clan, the undisputed king of Mount Eight Peaks, the true master of Mount Eight Peaks, the last bloodline of King Loen, Bellegar-Iron Hammer.

This is a thick list. At Ryan's request, Bellega wrote letters everywhere, calling a large number of people to help Brittania attack the Blackstone stronghold.

Ryan nodded to Katzenberg, and he also took out a thick piece of parchment and handed it to King Belegar: "This is the military form we are preparing to participate in the attack on the Blackstone stronghold."
