There are a total of five hundred Amazon female warriors in this group, ranging from the priestess who leads the team to various sub-units that are difficult for outsiders to distinguish. The wealthy Snorri simply hired their entire mercenary group.
Among the entire Tyrell mercenary group, Anagonda's Amazons are not the most powerful, nor do they have the best reputation. Snorri's representatives heard negative comments about their professional attitude during their inspections.
Snorri chose them mainly for two reasons. The first is that they were born deep in the rainforest of Lustria and are good at fighting in the jungle, and there are many such landscapes in the Southland.
On the other hand, they had contact with the lizard people in Lustria, and it was said that there were wars and alliances. But what is certain is that they understand the lizard people's language, and judging from Snorri's previous life experience and the notes of senior adventurers, there are lizard people in the Southland.
Of course Snorri didn't want to confront the eldest sons of the Ancient Saints. Even if these warriors were more decadent than the dwarves, they couldn't be humiliated. What's more important is that Snorri thinks that the dwarves are also creations of the ancient saints.
Although even the second-generation Slann Demon Toads have difficulty understanding what the grand plan is, the possibility of dwarves having a place in it is not small, at least greater than most other races. Perhaps Snorri could reach some agreement with them and contribute to the grand plan.
The other team consisted of knights and other troops from Bretonnia. In the previous two thousand years, these establishments should have been reserved for the guys from the Human Empire, but now that Dieter IV's name is still written in the Book of Great Hatred, Snorri simply did not accept the application from the humans of the Empire.
The knights came from various principalities in Bretonnia, mainly those that Snorri visited at that time. Including twenty expeditionary knights and eighty chivalrous knights, the Southland is undoubtedly a blue ocean in the eyes of these people who need to take risks to prove themselves.
Unlike the single-horse expedition knights, most chivalrous knights brought more than one attendant. Dwarves are not good at and cannot serve their pure-blood or mixed-blood elf war horses. These two hundred attendants need to take care of the horses in addition to participating in the battle themselves.
In addition to assisting in contacting the knights and sending them to Haimen Pass by ship, Constantine, an old friend, also prepared some troops for Snorri himself. Not only did he send twenty Poseidon Knights and Ms. Schumann, he also sent three teams of his newly formed elite infantry to Snorri's command.
These people were called the Legion of the Sons of the Sea by Constantine. They were a new elite infantry regiment that he recruited from the original coast guards, sailors, and knights, and gave them good treatment.
Constantine hopes to use this to supplement the lack of combat effectiveness of the original infantry regiment. After completing the training, he now wants these people to be tested in actual combat.
Snorri also read another meaning from the telegram - he had stabilized his position in the transfer of power, and it was time to weaken the voice of some coastal nobles and maritime churches who had strongly supported him.
The legion of Sons of Poseidon sent by Constantine consisted of two halberd squads and one crossbowmen squad, adding up to a total of one hundred and eighty people. At last count, Snorri's combat troops already numbered three thousand.
After reading the troop list, Snorri let out a sigh of relief. This was the biggest force he had control over. After setting off, the fate of these three thousand people could be said to be in his hands.
Suddenly, on a whim, Snorri looked eastward from the window of Seagate Pass. He knew that there was the Dome Mountains, and on the edge of the glacier stood Karak-Izo, where Belegar-The Hammer was recruiting troops.
Ever since Snorri announced his intention to expedition to Plateau Castle, the two dwarf princes seemed to be playing opposite each other. Well, Belegar calls himself Karak, the King of the Eight Peaks, but most dwarves don't recognize him yet.
Judging from the current results, the two people are evenly matched this time, but Snorri knows that the people help him because they believe that they can succeed; and help Belega because they believe that if they don't help, there will be no chance of help in the future. Already the last bloodline of the Andergrand clan.
On the day of the expedition, Snorri boarded the dreadnought HMS Grimnir's Hammer amid the cheers of the people of Haimenguan. Lord Panos was present in person to see him off. He opened a bottle of sparkling wine in advance, which was usually opened during a triumph, to show his support for Snorri's expedition.
Snorri stood at ease on the bridge. This giant ship was like a castle in the sea. It was equipped with a large number of cannon turrets and the caliber of the artillery used was larger than that used by the army. In addition to the turret and side battery, the dreadnought also has an aviation deck for taking off and landing gyroplanes and airships.
Most people in the old world believe that dreadnoughts are the most powerful ships on the sea, but the huge cost also determines that even wealthy dwarves cannot own many.
The greatest kings in the history of Barak-Var have built a dreadnought as a symbol of their achievements, but currently only three of the Haimen Pass are still in operation.
"You don't have to worry. There is no ship in the entire Blackwater Bay that dares not to give way to us!" Panoson stood next to Snorri, looking at the water in front of the ship with great pride.
What he said was the truth. With the dwarf navy shrinking, Blackwater Bay was being run like an iron barrel. The entire border princedom is influenced by the Tongshan Fort on land and the Haimen Pass on the sea. As long as the dwarves wanted to, they could easily raise a border prince.
"That Lailen, he is your friend. When the knights first entered the border prince territory, he was very popular with his identity as the Knight of the Sun. And with the resources you sent, he was already one of the top names in the chaotic land. No. 1 person."
The dwarves of these two fortresses are paying attention to the situation in the Border Prince Territory. They don't want it to be too chaotic, as their trade will be affected.
But they also don't want this place to be completely eaten up by the knights. If the world is peaceful, who will buy the dwarves' flagship products-weapons and armors? Who needs the dwarves to repair the walls that were damaged in the war?
After the Knight King Charon's chivalry army killed all the greenskins, they no longer marched into the Badlands but stayed there. When the border princes realized what the Bretonnians really wanted - to occupy their land , these desperadoes united.
Laeron, who originally became stronger by doing things for the knights, sided with his fellow border princes this time. With the secret support of the dwarves, he fought against the remaining Bretonnian troops.
"He is also a person favored by the gods. Perhaps this fight is no longer limited to the mortal world." Snorri told Bordello City what the learned scholar said about the fight between Mannann and the Lady of the Lake and the current situation. Think of it.
