Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

The time it takes for dwarves to assemble troops is usually measured in years. Especially when preparing for an expedition, their rigorous and serious character determines that the parties concerned must carefully check every specific matter, even a wooden cup for beer. There can be no omissions.

The dwarves of various mountain fortresses began to respond to Domgar's call for war. Even if this meant high risks, it was still an opportunity. They might not be able to win the honor of regaining the Eight Peaks Mountain, but the gold coins spent by the Angland clan would not. Will deceive people.

But on the eve of the High King's preparation for the operation against the Red-Eyed Mountains, the call for action became a bit shabby. Only the dwarf mountain fortress in the Gray Mountains responded to the Angrond clan, and Torrent Pass and Butcher's Keep only sent a few symbolic warriors. Represents the expectation of regaining the homeland.

But in any case, this gave the elves some time to react, and the communication channel centered on the Dragon Father's Faith was finally opened. This time, Imric and Masnow rarely gathered together with the gentlemen of the Noble Council.

Edgar briefly explained the communication with Thorgreen and asked the Bloodborn whether to immediately send a fleet to bring the body of Caledor II back to his homeland.

The red shadow symbolizing Imric thought for a long time and decided that it was just a choice. This key node was not suitable to bring back the body of Caledor II.

If it is sent back to Ulthuan, it will definitely not be held in secret, but the current diplomatic policy is to treat the Longbeard War coldly.

If the hatred for the fourth Phoenix King's beheading was stirred up by someone with ulterior motives, the current Phoenix King Fenuba would just pass it by looking carelessly, but the same cannot be said for the Dragon Palace. They must take a tough stance on this matter and cannot show off. Submissive to the dwarves.

At least this matter is not possible now. The two parties have not yet found a suitable opportunity. Mustache has made it clear that he has a conspiracy, betting that he does not dare to use the body of Caledor II as a bargaining chip.

Even if Caledor chooses to fight alone, the dwarves must gain control of the Badlands. After all, the remains are in their hands, which means they have the initiative.

As long as he takes action against the Badlands, he can use the body as a bargaining chip to return the ownership of Golden Oath City and Bottomless Steps to the hands of the dwarves.

Thorgreen was sure that he didn't care much about the past. The best result for the dwarves was to obtain the Golden Oath City and the Bottomless Stone Steps without any cost. However, for the sake of insurance, he still chose to use the body as a chips.

Even though he really didn't value the body, he was determined to capture the Golden Oath City and the Bottomless Stone Steps.

But as long as the noble council knows about this, it will never think that the two fortresses that lost their meaning after the Dragon Horn was recaptured can compare with the significance of the previous monarchs, and the pressure will be on their side.

A very good plan. As long as it is handled properly, both parties will get a satisfactory result. It can be seen that Mustache has good control over the situation.

After thinking about it, he told the answer to the gentlemen of the noble council,
"We will discuss this matter after we get the dragon horn back. The current situation is not suitable for bringing back the remains of our ancestors."

The rather stubborn Wycliffe just wanted to question it. This was the Phoenix King. Even though his reputation was somewhat bad, it still symbolized the most powerful and glorious era of Caledor.

But Imrik, who had known the old guy's reaction for a long time, had already made him unable to speak, and his shadow was shaking as if he was drunk.

Edgar said that there was no problem. This matter was a bit too sensitive. Once it was not handled properly, it could easily cause trouble. Caledo's current focus was not on political influence. It was good to save some energy. He was not willing to go back to Loser. En is talking nonsense to a bunch of stupid nobles.

"Thorgrim requires manpower support, and I promise to send a hundred elite troops headed by the Flameborn Knight."

The council fell into silence. Edgar's idea was to use this group of people as a field reconnaissance team. They would not be held back in the war, but they would never be able to sacrifice their lives for the dwarves.

When obtaining information about the Eight Peaks Mountain, it is a conservative support choice to evaluate the abilities of the Angland clan.

After seeing that Imrik had no decision, Randy, who had the most say and seniority, spoke first.

"I will ask the Shadow King for some manpower to be stationed permanently in the old world. Their ability to collect intelligence is much better than ours."

Assanil thought about it for a while and made a proposal. This was something he had wanted to propose for a long time.

"Regarding the garrison at Caledor Rest, I suggest reducing part of it and dispatching professional troops to Sartosa. The current conflict between us and the Phoenix Court has been significantly eased. We can handle it with the help of the civil servant group, and the combat effectiveness of the naval fleet is sufficient to maintain the peace. The safety of Chulong Bay. Most of the work I am responsible for nowadays involves training new recruits, and the new recruits need a suitable environment to test their results."

Although the person who could agree to this proposal was Imric, everyone's eyes turned to Masno.

If Anaheim requests domestic support, based on the current ranking of military operations arranged by the palace, Nagaros, which poses a real threat, must have a higher priority, and the champion warriors can get this part of the force in their hands.

Masnuo of the Ice Blue Phantom is very straightforward. He has no interest in making silly political struggles on this matter. Since the parliamentary gentlemen have already agreed to the Gulam plan, there is no reason to focus on the existing military power in the country.

"I agree with this proposal. There is no need for the palace and parliament to worry about Nagaros. Oliveira and I will handle everything." Seeing that both parties are so dedicated, Imric doesn't care about this kind of negotiation. The country If there are no factions in the system, would it still be called a country?

Moreover, the main point of conflict between the two sides is only the concept of military expansion. With the report of the Dragon Horn incident, the trend of stable reconciliation has gradually resumed.

"The first batch of 450 students from Zhongsi Academy has graduated. 200 of them will go to Anaheim to participate in the Gulam Project, and the rest will be deployed to Sartosa to join the army at Caledor Rest."

A simple increase in support for Sartosa appeared as a sideshow. The question now is whether to increase support for the Angrond clan.

Imrik had actually been thinking about this matter for many years. Domgar's ability was not outstanding, and it was only after Belegar took over the clan after his brother's death that he truly showed his ability as the Wandering Lord of the Eight Peaks Mountains.

In fact, just to recapture the Dragon Horn and complete Caledor's current strategic goal does not require such a complicated operation. It is enough to accumulate a century-old military force and rush through the bad land to return the Eight Peaks Mountain to the Angland clan. Then set off towards Dragonbone Wasteland.

But the hidden danger of doing this is that most of the dwarves' energy will inevitably be tied up in the mountains on the edge of the southern world. The mountain lords are more willing to fight with the greenskins than fighting Chaos.

This was contrary to the most important goal. What he wanted was a dwarf who could make an impact on the situation in the north, not a dwarf who spent all day hanging out in holes with greenskins and rats.

While everyone was waiting for the order, Imric still chose to be ruthless. The loser should die quickly instead of living in the world and living up to expectations.

Say to Edgar, "Do as you wish, and I will intervene in the Bad Place if necessary."

As a symbolic leader's speech ended, Imrik's figure disappeared instantly, providing a communication space for the parliament and the champion warriors to communicate.

With the prince gone, Randy set his sights on Masnow, even though the Congress was by any measure larger than the one he sat in Anaheim.

But one thing cannot be ignored. The champion warrior has secondary command rights over the army, and Masnow's victory in many wars over the years has earned him a high reputation in the army.

"Masnow, you should have the power to dispatch the two groups of Tal Gavor Knights in Yris. Military operations in the old world require air power."

Masnow was noncommittal about this. Although Imric did reject the support provided by Eltharion before, after hearing that Anaheim lacked air force, he still dispatched the gryphon knights to Caledor as promised.

The champion warrior thought about it for a while. The parliament had the domestic influence he expected to gain, especially in the towns and villages distributed throughout the kingdom. If he wanted to obtain an additional part of the elf army, it was necessary to conduct a negotiation action.

"Bihot, Lax, and Sarovina, the three towns have priority in recruiting."

Randy and Agthel looked at each other, and Masnow named the three towns belonging to Kaled and Windhowling City. According to the kingdom's conscription regulations, enlistees can first propose the military region they wish to participate in.

Although most of them have no effect, no one wants to watch birds poop on the coastline for hundreds of years. The New World is a good choice.

The court does not care where the troops come from, as long as the number of recruits reaches the standard, the influence on the towns is the goal that the nobles strive for.

And if Masnuo actually affects three towns, it means that the military resources here have no chance of being connected to the parliament.

But then I thought about it, the professional army did not listen to the parliament at all. It was not waiting for the palace to assign responsible areas and responsibilities. If you want this priority in recruiting, then take it. Anyway, it is not the finances of the families in the parliament.

And with the size of the Masnot family, it is impossible for them to have substantial control over the township.

Between ready-made strength and unavailable soldiers, everyone knows which one to choose.

But Agathel still put forward a condition, "Bruni, I hope you will negotiate with him, propose to the palace that you give up your position as the second person in charge of Caledor Rest, and lead some of the Horns of the Sun to Sartosa. Parliament will compensate him later."

Obviously, the Parliament did not think that Bruni was a member of their own faction. Although Agtheel wanted to go to Sartosa in person, after Edtelis went to Dawn Fortress, Windhowling City would never let an old man sit in charge.

Moreover, the jester of the Phoenix Court is preparing to make a fuss about the Dragon Gate, and he cannot easily leave Ulthuan at the cusp of the storm.

"Okay, I will explain this to him." Masnow thought that since his old friend was almost constipated after staying in Ulthuan, it would be better to let him take the position of the old man Edgar and enjoy the glory after a long absence. (End of chapter)
