Chapter 1159 Red Bearded Balai


Chapter 1159 Red Bearded Balai

“Your Excellency Balai, according to my opinion, we plan to garrison this area.”

While speaking, Shi Lei clicked on the other side of the defense line on the map. One place.

Shi Lei's sudden idea made Balai frown unconsciously.

An army only needs one voice!

This sentence is applicable to any army, and Copperhearth Castle is no exception.

As the commander-in-chief of Copperforge, Balai obviously doesn't like anyone to question his decision-making.

However, Shi Lei and the others have a special status, and they are not his subordinates. Even as reinforcements, from the standpoint of Copperfurnace Castle, they have to share the feelings of the other party, which also makes Balai show their loyalty to them. Have more patience.

"Although this area is on the edge, the greenskin offensive is not weak. From time to time, they will launch strong attacks and take the opportunity to send small groups of troops to infiltrate..."

Speaking of this, Balai's voice stopped suddenly. Apparently, he had realized why Shi Lei chose this area.

As expected, Balai's words did not change Shi Lei's mind.

"I know, I plan to set up defenses in this area and extend the defense line at the same time..."

While speaking, Shi Lei drew a line on the map with his finger.

“Extend the defense line all the way here. There happens to be a suitable terrain here to form a pass to resist the penetration of green skins.”

At this time, Balai’s brows furrowed even more. Tight.

Extending the defense line means an increase in defensive pressure. Now they are facing the attack of the greenskin army. Their core strategy is to shrink the defense. This means that under the condition of limited troops, they should concentrate their troops as much as possible and reduce the defense area. Increase the defensive strength of each remaining defensive area.

Now that reinforcements have arrived, do you want to extend your defense?

Then the reinforcements have arrived. Has their defense strength been increased or not?

"That area..."

Balay originally wanted to say that that area did not need to be heavily defended. After all, it was an area they gave up under the contraction strategy.

But when the words came to his lips, he reacted and changed his words in time.

"We have already made arrangements for that area, there is no need to extend the defense line specifically."

Balay politely declined Shi Lei's request.

The various things that happened within the coalition forces in the past few years have had a great impact on Bale, and they have also made Bale resistant to so-called allies.

According to Balai's current thinking, they requested reinforcements to reduce their own pressure. If the arrival of reinforcements adds trouble and defensive pressure to them, then why do they need these reinforcements?

But Shi Lei obviously didn't intend to stop there. In the case of an alliance between the two parties, he did have the responsibility to maintain the relationship between the two parties, but the premise of all this must be based on not harming their own interests.

He will never give in on matters that are related to their interests!

At this moment, as this idea came to mind, Shi Lei felt dazed for a while. He suddenly remembered what his Majesty said about the situation of the coalition forces in the early years.

It wasn’t until the same situation happened to him that he finally had a deep understanding of those words.

“With all due respect, Sir Balai, the symbolic meaning of that arrangement is greater than the actual meaning.”

Shi Lei now had a direct show of his cards.

But at the same time, Bale's eyebrows almost knit together. Invisibly, Bale's little patience began to slowly fade away.

You know, the dwarves have never been a good-tempered race. Just when they were about to speak, Shi Lei took the lead and spoke again...

"That area is like a colander. , since autumn, green-skinned troops have been appearing at our borders in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Is this your arrangement?”

“…”

Balai's whole face turned red instantly. From the perspective of their dwarves, he didn't think there was anything wrong with the previous arrangement.

This is indeed the case. As the commander-in-chief of the dwarves, Balai's duty is to guard the Copperhearth Castle, not the Great Zhou.

But when Shi Lei said it on the spot, while Balai was angry, it was inevitable that he would feel a little embarrassed.

At this moment, the changes in the positions of both sides were undoubtedly reflected at once.

At the same time, the originally good atmosphere of the conversation gradually became explosive.

Facing Balai, who was almost glaring, Shi Lei remained calm throughout the whole process, without even changing his expression.

“The prerequisite for our Great Zhou to support your Copperhearth Castle is to first ensure our own safety. Lord Balai, you must understand this.”

Shi Lei said this The words were somewhat threatening, which made Balai's face quickly turn ugly.

At this moment, a figure broke in.

"Hey! What are you arguing about?!"

Wojin rushed in, his face full of nervousness. When his soldiers saw that something was wrong, they immediately found him as quickly as possible.

Thankfully, the war outside had come to an end now, and he was also thinking about things here, so he just returned to the camp, otherwise it would be too late.

“Uncle Balai, and Mr. Shi Lei, can’t we have a good talk?”

Wojin barged in, making Balai roll his eyes speechlessly and did not look. After exhaling heavily, he turned his gaze to Shi Lei.

"You should be lucky that it's me who's talking to you this time!"

At this point, Balai's voice paused.

“I can let you garrison that area and also allow you to extend the defense line, but you have to do it yourself. We don’t have the extra power to do this for you now!”

"Yes."

Shi Lei agreed directly without thinking.

Upon seeing this, Balai's expression slowly calmed down, and he immediately raised his hand. The soldiers around him immediately understood and led Shi Lei and the others towards the garrison camp in that area.

Wo'jin obviously didn't want to stay here any longer, so he quickly said...

"I'll go and have a look."

As he spoke, he caught up with Shi Lei.

"Lord Woking, thank you very much just now."

Looking at Wo Jin who was catching up, Shi Lei also sincerely thanked him when he remembered what happened just now.

Wo'jin listened and waved his hand directly.

"It's okay, but Mr. Shi Lei, you should try to be more careful in the future. Uncle Balai is a good-tempered one among us dwarves. If you have anything to do in the future, you can tell me first. I'll go Convey it.”

What Wojin said was not an exaggeration.

Most dwarves have bad tempers, and Balai is one of the very few dwarves in the tribe who can control his emotions and keep his mind calm.

If it had been any other dwarf, even if both parties had their own reasons, there was a high probability that the negotiation would collapse based on the situation just now.

The Great Zhou was first discovered by Wojin, and Wojin also proposed the alliance first. This made Wojin have an inexplicable sense of responsibility for the Great Zhou. In this matter, he also acted Broken heart...
