"You did the right thing. A qualified leader must not only be able to win battles, but also be able to defeat them and stop losses in time." Chu Xin comforted.
The dwarves occupy the advantageous position, and if they continue to fight, Friday's losses will only be greater.
But it can be seen that the failure to clear the mines still made him a little frustrated.
Chu Xin simply tidied up, then quickly got on his horse and followed Friday to the mine. At the same time, he also called the drafting team, Tie Lin, and the troops in the territory to quickly gather at the mine.
On the way, Chu Xin briefly asked Friday about the situation in the mine. Because the time was too short, Friday could not answer a lot of information at once.
The dwarves resisted fiercely, and Chu Xin was thinking about a solution.
It is naturally not a problem for Cao Tuan to take action to destroy this group of dwarves and occupy the mine here.
But after finally seeing a large group of dwarves, Chu Xin still hoped to capture them and recruit them into the territory.
But now, a conflict had broken out between the two sides, and he couldn't tell whether the group of dwarves could still communicate.
If they can't communicate, they can only bulldoze it and see if they can try to capture a group of dwarf slaves.
The team gathered quickly, and when Chu Xin passed by, several teams had already arrived.
Tie Lin, who was playing underground, was also quickly approaching here. Only Cao Tuan, the heavyweight player in the mine, was still stuck in the Baiwei Fish Pond.
Chu Xin called him several times before urging him over.
"Next time you do this again, I will confiscate your fishing rod!" Chu Xin looked at the belated grass ball and criticized it seriously.
The grass ball's addiction to fishing is also too great. If someone else comes to attack the territory, the few minutes it is delayed will be a big mistake. Although this little guy is still a child in mind, he must be beaten in advance.
Originally, Caotuan was ready to shamelessly jump into Chu Xin's arms and act like a spoiled brat, but when he saw something was wrong, he immediately lowered his head and pretended to admit his mistake.
"Okay, we are going to enter the mine. You are the main force this time." Chu Xin hugged the grass group from the ground and said warmly.
Cao Tuan immediately regained his energy, stretched out two small hand-like vines, and patted his chest to express that there was no problem.
Recently, Caotuan himself used rattan to grow four rattans similar to his hands and feet on the basis of his original body. It looks like a little straw man with a big belly.
After the team was assembled, Chu Xin quickly began to make arrangements.
The first ones to enter the path exploration were changed to dwarf heavy infantry, followed by Mountain Bear, Thunder Bear and Yellow Turban Magician, followed by Chu Xin, Cao Tuan, Iron Scale, Flame Beard, etc., as well as some other teams.
This time, Chu Xin did not let the undead enter for the time being, because most races hated the undead. He had the idea of recruiting dwarves, so naturally he could not bring the undead with him.
As for the last batch of vanguard troops who had hated each other, Chu Xin had no choice but to try as much as possible.
Letting the dwarf heavy infantry take the lead, he also kept the psychological alertness of using his fellow tribesmen to lower the dwarves to see if they could communicate further in the future.
If it fails, the undead will enter the scene and the grass group will be combined to clean up the entire mine.
"Clang"!
When Chu Xin entered, the battle had already begun. Sparks were flying on the shields of the dwarf hoplites, and the dull roar of muskets and the sound of attacks hitting the shields were intertwined, making it very chaotic.
The dwarf infantry team did not appear, only the dwarf musketeers kept attacking the team that had just left the portal in the darkness.
The dwarf heavy infantry who entered first had already built a shield wall, so Chu Xin who came in behind was not attacked.
"It seems that I still have to beat you up, and you won't stop and negotiate terms until you feel the pain." Chu Xin raised his eyebrows, and quickly made a decision in his heart.
This is normal. If he wants to recruit the other party, he must show his ability to suppress the other party. Otherwise, why would others join you?
Chu Xin spread out his spiritual perception and felt the surrounding situation through the shield wall.
The structure of the entire mine is very complex. Once teleported in, there is a very huge open space not far ahead.
The entire mountain here is almost hollowed out, and there are more than a dozen holes of various sizes connected to this space, and each hole corresponds to a mine tunnel.
The overall strength of the dwarves is not too strong. There are only about twenty four- and five-star dwarves, and the rest are some two- and three-star dwarves.
But the mine feels like a mouse hole, complicated and complex. If you rush to chase the dwarves along the mine, you will easily get stuck in it and lose your way.
The other party was not polite, and Chu Xin did not intend to fight with them anymore, so he directly gave the order to attack.
"The Yellow Turban Magician releases demonic winds to interfere with vision."
"Mountain Bear and Thunder Bear, attack with ground thorns and thunder spells, try the dwarves' defense."
"Caotuan, you and Tie Lin will investigate the location of the opponent's leader and capture him for me."
A series of orders were issued by Chu Xin. As for himself, he brought the dwarf miner captain who followed him to analyze the composition of the mine.
The dwarf miner captain groped along the potholes beside the hole. Chu Xin followed for a while and saw nothing, so he simply waited for the result of the dwarf miner captain.
He had a hunch that the quality of the ore in the mine this time should be quite good.
Dwarves are a race that is very good at searching for minerals. The quality of the mines they are in should not be bad.
"Report to the lord, this is a magic crystal mine, and the main product produced is white magic crystal."
After more than ten types of analysis, the dwarf miner captain finally came to a conclusion.
It's actually a white magic crystal?
Chu Xin's eyes lit up, this is a good thing.
Magic crystal, as the name suggests, is an ore crystal that contains a large amount of pure magic power.
White magic crystal is the most common type of magic crystal. It is a non-attributed magic crystal that can provide a large amount of magic energy and is often used as the driving core of many magic energy machines.
Like those magic puppets in Chu Xin's territory, it is most suitable to use white magic crystal to drive them.
As for magic cores produced in alien beasts, and other magic crystals with elemental properties, they are often widely used in the production of magic scrolls and magic props.
Naturally formed magic crystals are very rare, and even white magic crystals are extremely rare. Chu Xin could only be lucky to have encountered such a mine.
I just don’t know how much the dwarves have mined, and how many white magic crystals are still waiting for Chu Xin to mine.
However, this discovery made Chu Xin more determined to clear the mine as soon as possible and start mining quickly.
At this time, the roar of the muskets in the mine was much weaker, but the spells of the Bear Clan troops and the Yellow Turban Magician still caused great disturbance to the dwarves.
Chu Xin used his mind to sense it. Although the dwarf was beaten into chaos, there were no casualties for the time being.
They have naturally anti-magic skin, which is rough and fleshy. These magics only bring some damage to the dwarves, but they are far from fatal.
Suddenly, Chu Xin heard a burst of turmoil and frightened screams from the dwarves. A smile appeared on his lips. It must be that the grass balls and iron scales succeeded.
If a powerful enemy invades the mine, it is impossible for the leader of the dwarf tribe not to take command.
Not long after, there was a burst of movement from the hole left behind by the grass balls in front of them, and Tie Lin was the first to crawl out of it.
Behind it are grass balls and a sturdy dwarf with a red beard tied up by a cane.
“#&a;**&a;&a;%%…￥%￥%￥…”
The dwarf was so excited that he didn't know what he was shouting, and his body was struggling wildly, but he couldn't move at all under the bundle of grass.
[Badams, the leader of the Black Rock Tribe]: Five-star LV35, abilities (master mining, advanced forging, advanced anti-magic skin, alcoholism), status (anger, hunger, thirst for wine). Tip: A dwarf leader determined to lead the Black Rock Tribe to glory, but due to reality, he had to make a compromise and lead the tribe to escape from the Black Rock Mine and move to a new mine.
As the leader of the tribe, he is still hungry. It seems that the leader of the dwarf tribe is having a miserable time.
It's just that this guy is too emotional and can't communicate at all.
Chu Xin frowned and called Yan Xu.
After seeing Yan Xu, the dwarf became even more excited. According to Chu Xin's guess, he was probably cursing traitors or something like that.
"Let him be quiet." Chu Xin frowned.
Yanxu didn't care about the lake at all. He picked up the hammer burning with flames and prepared to smash it down with all his strength.
It seemed that he was preparing to fully implement Chu Xin's will and knock the dwarf unconscious, so that everything would be completely quiet.
"Don't—" Sensing that something was wrong, Chu Xin hurriedly tried to stop Yan Xu's actions, but the hammer had already been struck.
Perhaps because he heard Chu Xin's cry, Yanxu regained his strength a little, but inevitably, he still knocked Badance dizzy, and his eyes were dull for more than half a minute before he came back to his senses.
After recovering, Bardams stared blankly at Yanxu. No, to be more precise, it should be Yanxu's hammer. It was very quiet.
The effect is so good? You won't knock me silly!
"Ask him if he is willing to join our territory." Chu Xin looked at Yan Xu and motioned for him to translate.
After hearing Yan Xu's words, Badans looked at Chu Xin solemnly, and after a long time, he coldly uttered a short word.
Although Yanxu didn't translate, Chu Xin also heard the rejection in the other party's words.
So simple?
Chu Xin frowned. Don't you understand that a dwarf has to bow his head when he is under the eaves?
But an entire dwarf tribe was too much for Chu Xin to act, and he was reluctant to slaughter them all. With a bit of unwillingness to give up, he continued: "Don't refuse in a hurry, you might as well listen to my conditions."
"You are responsible for mining mines for me, and I will provide you with space for the dwarf tribe to survive and develop stably, food and - wine!"
Chu Xin looked at Badans. He believed that the allure of wine to dwarves was self-evident. This was how the group of fighting dwarves in his territory were conquered a long time ago.
Dwarves are fond of alcohol, but are not good at making wine, and they don't have enough food to eat, let alone make wine. He believes that this condition of his is still very attractive to the dwarf leader.
If the dwarf leader is stubborn and refuses to join, Chu Xin plans to capture the remaining dwarves one by one and question them. He will always be able to meet one or two dwarves who can be moved by the wine.
Anyway, according to the style of dwarves, they love drinking and will not refuse anyone who comes. Whether it is barley wine or rice wine, they are both fine wines and extremely tempting.
In such a large tribe, there must be some who are willing to bow their heads!
Sure enough, after hearing Yanxu's translation, Badans inevitably swallowed his saliva, and he was tempted.
A knowing smile appeared on Chu Xin's face. He deliberately turned on the Wanyu Technique to hear whether the other party would agree or continue to bargain.
However, the next second, Bartans refused.
"Even if I die, I will not let my tribe become your slaves."
Chu Xin was stunned for a while. It seemed that the other party had misunderstood. No wonder he refused so completely. He almost thought that wine had no appeal to dwarves.
"I'm not going to capture you as slaves, you can rest assured on that."
"Maybe you can understand it as a more pure employment relationship. I hire you to work in my territory. In return, I provide you with food and wine."
"If you are worried, we can sign a contract with your dwarf ancestor as the witness."
"But if you don't agree, I will kill you and then go find the next one. In such a big tribe, there will always be dwarves who are willing to agree to my conditions."
Chu Xin said quickly, and Yan Xu quickly translated on the side. Carrot plus stick, it all depends on Badence's attitude.
After all, he is the leader of the tribe. If he can win, Chu Xin will have a chance to win the entire tribe without any damage.
If there is a problem with Badans at this level, subsequent recruitment will naturally be difficult.
As Yanxu continued to translate, Badence's mood eased slightly, and he finally understood that the other party was not those evil human slave-catching teams.
He looked at Chu Xin, then at Yan Xu, and finally his eyes fell on Yan Xu's burning hammer, and he was about to speak.
Suddenly, there was a loud "clang" sound, and the dwarf heavy infantry guarding the front row shook.
The dwarf tribe finally found the location of the invaders from the evil wind of the Yellow Turban sorcerer. They came to take revenge.
Bartence's face lit up. Although he was very moved by Chu Xin's conditions, if possible, he still hoped that he would not be negotiating this employment business as a prisoner.
But what surprised him was that the dwarf heavy infantry in the front row only swayed, showing no signs of being broken.
Chu Xin smiled. The equipment of these dwarf heavy infantry had been upgraded by Yanxu, and now their defense power was quite astonishing. In addition to their slow movement speed, positional warfare was like an iron wall.
Even though there were several five-star dwarf heavy hammer warriors attacking outside, they were unable to break through the defense of these dwarf heavy infantry.
Only then did Bardams notice the equipment on these iron cans. As a senior blacksmith, he could naturally see the strong dwarf-colored manufacturing style.
The other party actually had a master blacksmith working for him. While being secretly shocked, Bardams finally made a decision.
"This is not my matter alone. I need to discuss it with the people in the tribe and I will give you a reply in an hour." Batans looked at Chu Xin.
