In the central tent of the orc camp, a human being possessed by the legendary fox tribe Surus, although his eyes were closed, he had a proud expression and said with a smile:
"The Beaver Tribe recently spent 5,000 gold coins to purchase 75 magic pattern containers from the Human Tribe."
The human being known as Surus did not open his eyes, but said leisurely, "These containers can float in the water, and can even dive to a suitable depth and be transported directly under the water. Do you know whose product this is?" ?”
"Forehead……"
"From Yeqi City!" Sulusi said with a smile, "Yes, it's just as you guessed. The lord of Yeqi City sent an army to kidnap the human slaves, and also colluded with the local chamber of commerce to let The royal court’s plan basically failed.”
"They? The humans cooperated with the local orcs?" Olmert asked in disbelief.
The man nodded: "Yes, now the various chambers of commerce have not only obtained their seized materials, but also obtained loans from the local Dulazi family."
"How did you know?"
"Hmph, our fox clan has assisted so many generations of beast kings, we can't be without any skills, right?" This human clan with eyes closed was actually taken over by a legend of the fox clan named Surus Fox.
Since the Fox Tribe heard about the emergence of a barbarian force named Benma on the Benma Plains last year, they have slowly infiltrated into the Hindukels. They have set up small small villages in every local city. Commercial banks test the speed of goods circulation and the degree of commodity shortage through mutual transactions between commercial banks.
Last month, he asked merchants from all over the country to order a small amount of specialty products from other cities. Such goods with high unit prices but small quantities are usually transported with the caravans. After the Royal Court Army actually blocked the roads in the basin, , he can judge which blockade has been broken based on the delivery of the goods.
However, this morning, he received news that most of the trading houses were informed that they could take away the goods they ordered, which meant that all business routes were opened overnight. They had been planning a local blockade plan for nearly a year. Already in name only.
Sulusi, the legend of the fox clan, told Olmert Zhidan exactly the information he received, and then commented, "There is no way that a Lanlan horse guarding Yeqi City can survive in a few months." There are enough resources and gold coins to fight with the royal court."
"Is it because the Human Empire took action?"
"The Human Empire? Those nobles are willing to work hard to understand the difficulties and demands of the orc merchants who are thousands of miles away?"
Sulusi said helplessly, "It seems that what the royal court was most worried about has happened. Hindukel Galloping Horse, Ye Qicheng and that Fiat have united.
Yeqi City provides magic equipment, the local Galloping Horse family provides people, and Fiat provides money. Their real purpose is to compete with the royal court for control of Hindu Ker! "
"this……"
Olmert was completely stunned. He wanted to say that this was impossible, but the reality in front of him was that the Galloping Horse family was about to succeed. The Royal Court was now hated by people in the basin, and the Galloping Horse family here was not only It allows the big animals to call them daddy, and it also allows their families to maintain business and production.
"Sir, what should we do now?"
"Since the locals are unreliable, we can only treat them the way they are treated." Sulusi's voice sounded calm, but Olmert was shocked to hear it.
"You mean, also instigate their border?"
"No, Yeqi City is the border, and what I want to instigate is his royal court!"
…
On the morning of Sunday, September 33, at the Temple of Wealth in Yeqi City, Lant entered the secret room with some excitement, wondering what kind of repercussions his team's recent victories against the orcs would have in the empire.
What Lant didn't expect was that Mr. Jushu came very early today, and as soon as he entered the meeting, he communicated with him alone.
"Mr. White Wolf, I heard that Marquis Lant won several victories in the war against the orcs, and His Majesty also issued a special oracle to commend him." The giant tree praised Lant as soon as he came up, but his tone was very serious.
"I know that you can contact the Marquis of Lant directly, so I am waiting here specifically. I hope you can remind him that the imperial capital's attitude towards the front line is unpredictable and unpredictable. Continuous victories can certainly win more support. But it will also accumulate greater expectations and pressure, and a little carelessness can lead to the situation being out of control."
"You mean that once... Marquis Lant wins too many victories, the senior officials in the imperial capital will hope that he will further advance into Hindu Ker?" Lant thought for a while and asked tentatively.
"Mr. White Wolf, to be precise, I came today to discuss a cooperation with you," Jushu did not answer directly, but said with a smile, "I have some unique channels in the imperial capital, and I can provide some information that Marquis Lant does not know. The information is easy to obtain, and Marquis Lant can directly command the battlefield, allowing Yaweni Jinyue and Andrew Jinyue to achieve unprecedented military success."
"As far as I know, His Majesty the Emperor issued an order prohibiting high-ranking officials from the imperial capital from coming to the front lines to earn merit," Lant said.
The purpose of the giant tree has been very clear. Lant gave his people a way to gain merit. He helped Lant pass the news in the imperial capital. He even said that the two could further cooperate in the future to send appropriate information to the imperial capital and control it. Public opinion on the battlefield.
This kind of cooperation sounds like Lant is at a disadvantage, but the other side of Mr. Jushu's deal is that if Lant categorically rejects him, his faction may stir up public opinion and take the battlefield out of Lant's control, so Lant puts the emperor's Speak the command and add weight to yourself.
"Of course, all nobles in the Imperial Capital must abide by His Majesty's orders, but His Majesty's orders do not terminate the existing cooperation between the Imperial Capital and Yeqi City.
I can find a loophole and send some high-ranking people from the imperial capital in the hope that Marquis Lant will allow them to make military exploits on the battlefield. In exchange, I will ensure that a considerable number of nobles in the imperial capital will stand firmly on his side, no matter what he does. Decide to continue the war against the orcs, or prepare to cease war and seek peace. "
"Your proposal can only be decided by Marquis Lant himself, but I'm afraid he needs more information before he can make a judgment." Lant said.
Judging from the wording of the giant tree, he could probably guess that the giant tree should be from the Imperial Capital School, that is, people from Cromwell Gyeonggi. The Tower of Purity and the Imperial Capital Magic Academy control the major centers of the royal family and the empire respectively. Institutions, they disdain to describe themselves with catch-all expressions such as "a considerable portion of the aristocracy".
The Imperial School and Ye Qicheng are both local nobles. Since they are seeking active cooperation, they must first show their sincerity and prove that they are enough to obtain information that can influence public opinion.
"Of course, I think there is some information that you and Marquis Lant will be interested in. For example, the magic pattern containers in Yeqi City have been circulated throughout the Hindukel Basin, and not only the Orc Royal Court, but also the Imperial Capital The Finance Department has also heard that the seafood from Breyak Basin can reach any human city within 3 days."
