lizard lord

Chapter 81
"I understand the pain of losing a comrade-in-arms, and I know it's rude to make a request at a time like this, but I still have something to say.

[Of course, I know exactly what you want to say, so let's get straight to the point and avoid useless polite words. 】

Dwarves are almost straightforward characters, and Tang Zhao likes to deal with this type of creatures, without having to think about the deep meaning behind each behavior.

"I'll just say that, the crisis in your settlements should be basically resolved now. But at the same time, the situation in our settlements can be said to be very bad. Although we can barely hold on now, the few viable forces are They are all completely dragged down, and have no energy to do other things at all. There are more enemies behind, and this is not a long-term solution at all, and we urgently need help."

Asking others for help is a disgraceful thing in dwarf culture, but there is no other way right now. Among all the surrounding forces, only Tang Zhao and the others are really likely to lend a helping hand.

【Don't worry, reinforcements in terms of supplies and combat power will arrive soon. We will not forget any friends who have helped us, and the dwarves will get their due rewards. 】

No matter what kind of mentality the dwarves choose to help Tang Zhao and others, in short, they really helped a lot. Tang Zhao is a person who will repay his kindness, and he will not begrudge his help to his friends.

What's more, building a good relationship with the dwarves is also a beneficial and harmless thing, and he still needs their help.The two of them are basically in a relationship with each other. The dwarves can't bear the pressure and move south. The next step will be other settlements in the forest, including Tang Zhao and others.

It took so much effort to finally establish a long-term stronghold in Insula. Tang Zhao didn't want to retreat in despair at such a time, and ran to the territory of elves or other goblins to live under the fence.

The dwarf craftsman who received an affirmative answer was relieved. Although the big lizard in front of him and the help of his men could not change the situation decisively, they could still be said to be a strong helping hand.

[Give me a day or two, winter is coming soon, I need to exchange supplies with humans for the winter, and there are a lot of things from your dwarves, I believe they will be useful to some extent. 】

"Of course, your request is very reasonable. I will continue to arrange the protection of the settlement during this period. According to the current progress, I should be able to produce three or four ballistas."

Tang Zhao is more comfortable with dwarves doing things. Only when the safety of the settlement is basically guaranteed and he solves his worries can Tang Zhao spare no effort to help the dwarves.

The craftsman was actually quite a taciturn person, so he had nothing to say after the questioning. He silently thanked Tang Zhao, then hurriedly withdrew and continued to organize the defense and construction of the settlement.

The dwarf artisan was actually a military advisor, but due to some considerations, he was not included in the meeting inside the settlement. The artisan also knew how to avoid it, and continued to direct the kobolds to work unsmilingly.

[I have already received a reply from humans. The Chamber of Commerce does not pay much attention to the hobgoblin, but the merchant named Jacques said that he will help us convey the news for the sake of the large order, and promises that the news will be It was conveyed to the ears of a certain military officer. 】

"Things are fine here. If human beings are still indifferent, it is their own problem. The worst result is to let them solve it by themselves."

Lilith, the dryad, was quite hostile to those humans, because the forest had been felled and destroyed by humans for a long time. Their attitude towards humans was not bloody hatred, but it was definitely not a harmonious neighbor either.

"We can't put all our hopes on them. We should continue to prepare. It is their own business that human beings are willing to take actions."

The rest of the people have a similar attitude, and they don't have much goodwill and trust in human beings.

Tang Zhao is also very wary of human beings as a whole, so he doesn't say much about their thoughts, and then presides over the meeting.

They were mainly discussing issues related to the dwarves. They definitely wanted to help the dwarves. Everyone had no objection to supporting the dwarves, but they needed to think about how to help the dwarves.

After lengthy statistics and discussions, the general plan was finally determined.

Half of the kobold patrol team has 100 people, who are responsible for assisting the dwarves in combat. The stronger ordinary kobolds will send 300 people to serve as labor force. Forty goblins will assist in the patrol. Kees and all kobold warlocks, that's the spellcaster the dwarves are missing.

The best weapons and equipment are taken away with the ballistas, and everything useful for combat is as good as possible,
Basically, it is the limit that Tang Zhao and the others can mobilize, and any more may affect the safety of the settlement.

The settlement has actually begun to take shape now, with thousands of kobolds and nearly [-] goblins as its main members. It basically breaks away from the concept of a small village and belongs to a medium-to-large village.

The only thing that is missing now is the supplies of the human merchants. The other party replied that they will be delivered in two days, so they can prepare in advance.
