Chapter 248
After all, Tina and Tina are considered neighbors, and she came with a large amount of supplies. While Tang Zhao arranged for someone to receive those supplies, he also naturally prepared a sumptuous welcome dinner for him.

Food is also a major feature of this place, because the residents come from all corners of the country, and the food is also rich in variety. At least Tang Zhao was happy to eat, and Tina herself was not unhappy.

As a walk after dinner, everyone began to visit the city fortress. Like Julia, Tina gave a very good evaluation of this place.

"Impressive place, you are one of the few examples where these races can live in harmony, mind if I promote this place to other races? I think they also need to learn this spirit. Please rest assured, my race Although they have all kinds of shortcomings, they are still well-behaved and won't cause any trouble."

[Learning at this level is not enough. If your fellow clansmen are willing to come over, I will not stop you, and I can provide a welcome feast to cleanse the dust. 】

To be honest, Tang Zhao didn't want too many unstable factors dangling in his territory, but Tina said that, and it didn't involve fundamental interests, so he couldn't refuse.

"Thank you in advance. Please take care of me. Besides visiting neighbors, I have important things to do this time. Julia entrusted me to prepare those supplies in advance, and she also arranged other tasks for me."

【What about the black dragon in the swamp?Someone told me this before. 】

"Almost," Tina nodded, "After all, I'm not far from his lair, and occasionally there will be a little friction, but it's been in a state of peace for decades, if he didn't make the first move this time, I wouldn't Join this war."

Speaking of the latter, Tina's tone obviously became a lot heavier, she was almost talking with her molars gritted, Tang Zhao couldn't help but wonder, what could make a giant dragon so angry, but for his own safety Thinking about it, he didn't ask the question.

[Talk about the specific measures, you have to cooperate with my people around here. 】

"It's not too complicated. I will find a way to deal with the black dragon, but after the war, there will definitely be a lot of robbers and robbers near Luford, and the number of hobgoblin orcs infiltrating will also increase. Some diners are used as guards, and the city defense army is also there to assist, but it is inevitable that there will be insufficient resources, and once the city defense soldiers are short-handed, you will need your people to take care of them."

[This is not a problem, I can assign some patrols to help deal with it]

Tina's request is not too much. It is nothing more than trying to maintain the normal operation of the city of Luford during the upcoming war. On the one hand, it must be for the benefit of her chamber of commerce. On the other hand, the transportation hub city must not be disturbed too much. , the goods and personnel from the east and west of Oran must pass through here.

Tang Zhao agrees with her on this point, so he naturally agrees happily.

Since she was about to act soon, Tina simply didn't leave, and stayed in the city fortress. Tang Zhao found a fairly normal two-story building to house her, and didn't bother her any more.

While Tang Zhao was busy preparing manpower and supplies, new news came from the trading post—a large group of dwarves was marching towards the city, with various flags, mainly the flags of Dragon Blood Pass, saying It's for reinforcements.

Tang Zhao didn't dare to neglect, and went outside the city to meet him in person.

Groups of dwarf warriors, each armed to the teeth, formed a phalanx of hundreds of people, marching towards the city in a scattered but orderly manner.

A dwarf headed by him was wearing golden heavy armor engraved with runes, riding a giant creature that was also fully armed, similar to a bear but with fangs. sea ​​base.

Obviously, he attaches much more importance to the dwarves in the north than Tang Zhao had imagined before. After a rough scan of the number of teams, all he can see are two to 3000 people. It is said that there are more scattered teams behind. , This number is already very large by dwarf standards. After all, their large troops still have to guard the fortress, and the mobile forces that can be mobilized are estimated to be just that.

After Haiji and the others entered the fortress, they first thanked Tang Zhao, and then directly started talking about business.

The purpose of their sending troops is naturally to aid the dwarves in the north, and even go further on this basis: they intend to directly pick up the dwarves in those cities and bring them back to the safe area guarded by the dwarf kingdoms.

Now is their period of decline. Excessive dispersal of the tribe is really not a good thing. Presumably, the special envoy also talked with Haiji and others for a long time before making this decision. After all, it is not easy to abandon the homeland that has lived for generations.

There are pros and cons, they made this decision themselves, and Tang Zhao didn't have much to say, trying to help them accomplish their goals is fulfilling the duty of an ally.

"All in all, although we are fully prepared to act, after all, we are going to act from the territory of the Oran people, and we need your help to coordinate, contact and distribute supplies. The new king of human beings is very interesting, but after all, we cannot complete trust."

Haiji waved his hand boldly, and the left and right guards immediately brought up a very gorgeous wooden box. When he opened it, he found that it was full of gold coins and precious stones.

"This time the funds are shared by the guilds within each clan, and there are enough money and people. As long as things can be done well, everything is easy to talk about. This matter is very important to me and the entire dwarves. I need to stress this again.”

[No problem, human beings have never had trouble with money. 】

She quietly glanced at Tina who was listening, and her eyes were fixed on the gold coins. This is convenient and saves the effort of finding someone else. Andrea's chamber of commerce plus Tina is enough to solve the problem.

Haiji's territory is called Dragon's Blood Pass, and more than one dragon died there. After all, dwarves are also a race that likes to hoard treasures. When they reach a certain size, they will naturally be coveted, and conflicts will inevitably break out.

However, Haiji didn't have any particularly strong malice towards the giant dragons, and he could accept cooperation with them, so that's no problem.

The army led by Haiji only stayed in Karak Solma for one night, and set off again the next morning, saying that they were going to the royal capital of Oran to participate in part of the war against the orcs.

Tang Zhao couldn't take care of these things, he just prepared quietly and waited for the news. Finally, four days later, the Vulture Knight came secretly with letters and battle reports.

The five first-line legions deployed on the border of the orcs launched a fierce attack to the north at the same time. Cooperating with the fleet at sea to disrupt the rear of the orcs, the first round of attack was easily won. He is mentally prepared to deal with the enemy.
