Chapter 1053 War Mobilization


The female knight turned on her horse and praised the hobgoblin warlord: "To become an excellent commander, you not only need to be able to fight, but also to govern. You have lived up to the general's expectations. You have done a good job here. ”

The other party appeared here hiding his identity, obviously wanting to see the most realistic transaction scene.

Livestock trading is the pillar industry of Xuexia City. From here, you can see the big picture from the small and get a glimpse of the development of the entire Xuexia City. For example, how is their animal husbandry going? Are fiscal revenues healthy? Whether the transaction is normal and so on.

“All of this is due to the gift of the General and the lady’s tireless teachings.” The hobgoblin warlord replied sincerely.

"Very good." The female knight nodded with satisfaction, "Let's go to the inner city."

"Ma'am, please." The hobgoblin warlord said respectfully.

Even though he is more than twice as tall as the other person, he looks and behaves like a subordinate or a student.

Surrounded by these hobgoblin giant knights, they rumbled and disappeared into the bloody canyon passage leading to the inner city of Blood Gorge City.

It wasn’t until their figures disappeared completely that the businessmen breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they know that as long as they abide by the laws here, their personal safety will be guaranteed, but the size difference is still very oppressive.

Humans are not like halflings, who have long been accustomed to living in a world where everything is more than twice the size.

"Isn't he General Xueclaw, the Lord of Blood Gorge City?"

"That's him. I've been lucky enough to meet him several times."

"This name What is the background of the female knight who actually let General Blood Claw kiss her? Leading a team to greet you? "

"If I guess correctly, she should be Ms. Catherine, the chosen one of the goddess of strategy. Her dress is the best symbol, and only she can make General Blood Claw behave like this.

It is said that these Bloodclaw hobgoblins use the military laws of the goddess of strategy to govern the city, which makes them completely different from ordinary hobgoblins. "

"If she is Ms. Catherine, the general they are talking about should be General Gavin, the founder of the Road of Conquerors and the real founder of Blood Gap City. "

"General Catherine's appearance in Blood Gorge City, does it mean that a war will break out here? "

"It's not impossible. I heard that all the towns along the Conqueror's Road, and all the cities and territories of General Gavin, have issued orders to suppress bandits and declare war on those monsters. Blood Gap City As one of them, it must be involved, especially in the Giant Plains, where the large number of monster tribes are ultimately unsafe. "

"This is great news for us businessmen. We hope that all the monsters along the way will die. We praise the goddess of strategy and General Gavin, and hope that their plan will be a great success. ”

"Praise the goddess of strategy! Praise General Gavin!"

"If a war breaks out, wouldn't this trading market also be affected? In a short period of time, we will have no super large livestock trade?"< br>
“That’s really the case.”

“Then what are you waiting for? Auction, continue the auction.”

While this episode caused a lot of discussion among businessmen, it will also The livestock auction in the trading market once again exploded.

Those who can do business outside these days are all people with extremely keen sense of smell. They can smell the unusual smell directly from the identity of the other party.

War and commerce are closely related, and will cause large increases and decreases in many commodities.

If a war really breaks out in Blood Gorge City, then the specialties here will undoubtedly enter a state of skyrocketing, which will be an excellent opportunity for them.

The subsequent auction prices of very large livestock have generally increased, by at least 30%.

This incident was completely within Catherine's expectation. Ms. Strategist's priesthood covers not only war, but also commerce.

Unlike the bustling outer city, even for regular visitors on the Conqueror's Road, the inner city of Blood Gorge City is a rather mysterious place, and no outsiders are allowed to enter here.

Catherine used the twilight to look at this city that had just been established less than two years ago. It was like a towering military camp built on the mountain.

The rough and simple stone houses are arranged like rows of silent sentries.

On both sides of the street, arrow tower posts are arranged in an orderly manner, their shadows are stretched by the setting sun, like witnesses of history, silently recording the solemnity and majesty of this city.

There is an aura of iron blood in the air, as if every stone slab is engraved with an oath of unyielding.

The central square of the city is a huge military parade ground. In the center stands a stone sculpture nearly forty meters high. He is wearing heroic armor and holding a unique super-giant warhammer. His expression is cold and calm. Powerful, exuding a rich divine luster.

Behind the statue is a huge military camp, inside which is a hobgoblin army, fully equipped and ready to take military action at any time.

Of course this statue cannot be someone else’s.

It is the statue of General Gavin Nott, the pioneer of the Conqueror's Road, the founder of Blood Gap City, the god of future roads, and the co-owner of the Bloodclaw hobgoblins.

The hobgoblin army is the road guard, used to respond to surrounding road prayers and carry out road rescue.

On the road statue, there will be magical light flashing from time to time, and then the corresponding hobgoblin soldiers will disappear.

Apparently someone sent a prayer, and the road idol responded automatically.

Not only did the hobgoblins who responded not have any complaints, on the contrary, they were cheerful and eager to try.

Not only does it mean there are battles to fight, but it also means there is extra money to make.

This kind of road rescue is not free, but is clearly priced, and there will be a corresponding expedition subsidy for each expedition.

In Blood Gorge City, the road guard is an out-and-out job. They are not fixed, but rotate.

Originally Gavin wanted to use this kind of roadside assistance as a free benefit.

However, after repeated research and discussion, the charging model was finally adopted.

The reason is very simple. The quality of passers-by and businessmen varies greatly. Once free, they will call for rescue for any trivial matter, and some will even report false alarms.

The divine power on the road statue is limited and has a limit on the number of times it can be used every day. It also costs money to maintain the road guards.

As for the cost of faith that Gavin considered, it was completely worthless in the eyes of those businessmen.

The charging standard is the threshold, which filters out most situations that are not urgent.

It can not only ensure that the power of the road is used in the most appropriate place to help the most urgent people, but also maintain the normal operation of the road guard so that it will not become a burden on the city's finances and be in a benign manner. cycle.

And this is an example.

In the future, the construction standards of the Gavin Road Statue and the corresponding road guards will ensure that they can operate normally even if they are separated from the town. They may even build a roadside town or even a city based on this road statue.

If they operate independently from the city, the road guard will not be a simple road guard, but a monastery or Gavin's Holy Knights.

The surrounding buildings all adopt straight lines and angles, without any unnecessary decoration, showing a strict discipline.

Street lamps with eternal flames are like straight warriors, neatly arranged on both sides of the road. Their light is cold, without any warmth.

As night falls, the city lights light up simultaneously, turning this place into a city that never sleeps.

The hobgoblins along the way were all in a hurry, walking at a fast pace, a bit like trotting. Everyone had seriousness on their faces. They held their heads high and looked straight ahead, silently showing their pride. .

In such a city, life seems to have become a kind of military operation. Everyone is acting according to the established rules, and every action is accurately calculated. Even the dust in the air seems to be affected by this solemn atmosphere. The inspiration does not dare to drift away easily.

Even the words and deeds of those goblin women and children are all military style.

The only thing that is uncontrollable here is probably the cries of the hobgoblin babies. They are numerous and connected together. They are concentrated in the innermost part of Blood Gorge City, which is the safest area.

When Catherine saw this scene, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Hobgoblins are indeed born soldiers, and this has been completely integrated into their lives and bones.

Even her strategic battle fortress cannot achieve this level and must be relaxed.

After inspecting Blood Gap City, Catherine took the initiative and said: "I believe you have received the general's order. How are you going to take action?"

General Bloodclaw respectfully replied: "Whatever plans the lady has, despite the instructions, we in Blood Gap City will unconditionally obey the lady's orders."

The command system of Gavin's territory has been highly integrated with the church organization of Ms. Strategy. In the eyes of Ms. Strategy's followers, Gavin is the first lord knight of the Yin Red Order.

In the eyes of the knights in Gavin's territory, Catherine is the second-in-command in the entire territory, second only to Gavin, and her orders have absolute weight, especially in the army.

The hobgoblin army in Blood Gap City is no exception. They are the first new army in Gavin's territory to accept the ideological transformation of the strategy priests and arm themselves with strategies and tactics.

Catherine pondered for a moment and said: "General Bloodclaw is the first old man to follow the general. His loyalty is unquestionable. I will tell you the real purpose of this battle.

The general is already here The bottomless abyss, with The god of the gnoll race, Yeenoghu, the king of gnolls, has declared war. We are cooperating with him in a divine war in the material plane. The other monster tribes are just incidental. The gnolls and ghouls are our real targets. "

Gudong!

Blood Claw couldn't help but make a loud swallowing sound, and said with a look of disbelief: "The General is going to war with the King of Jackals? How is this possible? That is a god of race, a demon lord, the devil of the abyss..."< br>
The hobgoblin warlord has heard of various rumors about Gavin, and even lobbyists have come in more than one wave.

There are not only the Alliance of Cities on the Dragon Coast, but also the Sambia Merchants Council, and the Six Councils of Amn... Anyway, all kinds of monsters and monsters have appeared.

There is only one purpose, and that is to let Blood Claw lead Blood Gorge City to rebel against Gavin and join their ranks.

The answer Bloodclaw gave them was simple and crude.

He directly chopped off all the heads of their lobbyists and hung them on the wall of Blood Gorge City.

Xueclaw believes that his greatest advantage is his self-awareness.

The reason why he has the status and strength he has today is not because of how good he is, but because he made the right choice and followed the right person.

It was the other party that pushed me to where I am now. Without the other party, I estimate that I would still be a chief of the hobgoblin tribe in Rockland, with a fighting strength of several thousand, even if his business was successful.

The reason why the hobgoblin warlords in Blood Gorge City did not dare to rebel against themselves was not because they were afraid of themselves, but because of the young conqueror who could turn his hands into clouds and rain.

If he dares to rebel, it is estimated that his head will be hung on the wall of Blood Gorge City.

He has an almost godly belief in Gavin's ability.

Even if there is a problem, it will only be temporary. It won't be long before he appears in front of everyone again in a way that shocks the world.

What he didn’t expect after killing Bloodclaw was that Gavin actually ran into the bottomless abyss and started a battle with a veteran demon.

But considering the other party's series of great achievements, this does not seem to be completely impossible.

After all, he is not far away from becoming a god.

The Blood Claw showed super strong digestion and endurance, and quickly regained control of his emotions: "Madam, what do we need to do to assist the general to the greatest extent?"
< br>Catherine is very satisfied with the reaction of the hobgoblin warlord. The reason why he has grown to this point is not just because of Gavin's force. He does have his own uniqueness.

He told his plan directly: "Just killing those jackals will not be able to help General Gavin in a relatively limited way. The target must be directly aimed at the King of Jackals himself.

I heard that the gnolls on the Giant Plains have united and formed a super tribe, which is based on the gnoll king. The leader is a gnoll demon priest? ”

"Yes." Bloodclaw added: "Affected by our rise, the monster forces on the Giant Plains are also constantly annexing and uniting.

Among them, the half-beast troll Urcluna rules The Trolloc tribe has gained the right to speak in the northeast and the surrounding Giant's Run Mountains

Shaloma calls herself the Queen of the Gnolls. It is said that she is the favorite of the Gnoll King Yeenoghu in Faerûn. Concubine, she led her countless children and absorbed all the gnolls, hyenas and ghouls in the Giant Plains.

I have seen her children with my own eyes. They are indeed not normal gnolls, but not normal ones. An out-and-out product of the devil.

After receiving the order from the general, I thought about uniting with Ms. Shanoba, the lord of Colossus City, to make it a war target.

It's just that we once signed an armistice agreement. Once it is torn up, I'm afraid it will not only be the need to annihilate the Jackal Queen, but also trigger an all-out war in the Giant Plains. "

"The armistice agreement was signed, and it was meant to be torn up. Catherine was well prepared and said, "What's more, they are a tribe of monsters with no credibility at all."

Go to the Trolloc tribe yourself and tell the Troll Urkruna that we only want the Gnoll Queen, and the rest will belong to him. "

Xueclaw's serious face twitched involuntarily and said: "If we do this, King Urcluna will definitely be willing to send troops.

Just doing this will make the Trollocs tribe completely enlarged. When they want to regain the Giant Plains in the future, the difficulty will increase significantly. ”

"Do you think he still has a chance to become a big man?" Catherine smiled enigmatically, "They are not the only ones who are eyeing the Giant Plains, there are even more terrifying existences underground, peering into their souls."< br>
In Bloodclaw’s eyes, Involuntarily, a blazing light burst out, and he hurriedly asked: "What do you mean, madam, that we take the opportunity to capture the entire Giant Plain in one fell swoop?"

"This depends on the development of the situation. If there is a chance, why not? Catherine asked rhetorically.

“I understand what should be done.” Xue Claw instantly felt that his mind had broadened a lot.

This is the realm, this is the overall view.

What he was planning was something that could only be done by the city of Xuexia.

Ms. Catherine mobilizes all surrounding forces from a macro level.

"There is no need for the Troll to cooperate in sending troops. As long as he nods, he will not send troops to assist the Gnoll Queen.

You will lead the bloodclaw army to attack the Gnoll Queen, and use your best According to your actual situation, I will provide you with assistance.

This kind of assistance is not just for the kobolds of Colossus City, but there are many things that you can’t expect. "Catherine did not think of herself. Tell all the plans.

It's not that she doesn't trust Blood Claw, but Blood Gorge City is her first stop, and this round has not yet been completed.

Katherine is not worried about annihilating the Jackal Queen. Blood Gap City and Colossus City alone are enough to accomplish this.

What she was thinking about was how to make this game bigger and bring in more extraordinary beings.

For example, the Council of Death Chiefs dormant under the Giant's Run Mountains, and another example is the divine incarnation of the King of Jackals.

The Gnoll Queen said that she was the beloved concubine of the Gnoll King. It was not necessarily an exaggeration, but it was actually possible.

It's just that it doesn't necessarily belong to Yeenoghu's real body, but it may be one of his divine incarnations.

The divine incarnation of Shenzhuan is far from being as simple as an energy body. The main body has all the abilities that the divine incarnation has, including reproduction.

The method of reproduction of gods is far beyond what mortals can understand.

Sometimes, a divine thought from a god is enough to make a pure and devout girl pregnant and give birth to a child.

Such a child is usually called the Son of God, and is usually considered to be endowed with some important responsibility.

It's just that kind gods rarely do this unless they have to.

On the contrary, those demons and evil gods like to use this method to spread their evil seeds into the material plane, creating chaos and evil, and creating opportunities for their own coming.

They especially like to disguise themselves as good gods to taint those pure girls and let them give birth to devil children. They regard this as a victory.

Some divine beings can reproduce by just one person.

There are also some gods who are even more playful, such as Corellon, the main elf god, who not only has female incarnations of divinity, but also has androgynous ones.

Not to mention those demon lords and devil princes, especially the former, who often do some incredible things.

For example, in order to retaliate against the Succubus Queen Mecanthet for rejecting his courtship, the Dark Lord Graz'zt turned into the Succubus Queen Mecanthet and took the initiative to seduce the lord of the Frost Giants, who was famous for his ugliness. Costchurch.

This does mean to humiliate the Succubus Queen, but the question is, isn't this involving herself?

After the incident was revealed, the Angry Lord felt that he had been humiliated and vowed to take revenge on Prince Dark An, and the two sides often started wars over this.

Compared with this series of strange things, the divine incarnation of the King of Jackals combined with a female Jackal in the material plane, and giving birth to a Jackal is a perfectly normal operation. (End of chapter)
