forest kingdom

Chapter 273 Robbery, War

Lawrence returned to the manor, but Salil was a little worried.

"If we don't watch from the bottom of the mountain, won't something go wrong?"

Lawrence checked the growth status of the wheat in the manor, "It's impossible to say for sure, but we have to live, and the war will not be so fierce, so fierce that we have to defend every day."

Salil asked curiously: "Really not?"

"No, at least not for now." Lawrence explained: "When I have the opportunity, I will take you to see the forest people's war and how the people in the Western Kingdom fight."

Salil became even more curious, "Tell me now, I want to hear it!"

Lawrence walked to the garlic field on the other side, "There is nothing to hide. Have you ever seen monkeys fighting? Oh, I forgot that there are no monkeys here."

Lawrence thought for a moment, "Have you ever seen a dog fight?"

Salil replied with a focused look on her face: "No, I have seen two dogs fighting. If there are too many words, I will say nothing. There were not so many dogs here before, and I will not go to Doug's house."

In the past, Salil rarely went to the foot of the mountain. When she did, she would always play with Emma, ​​and she had very few friends.

Lawrence stopped beating around the bush and explained: "It's just that the two sides can't fight at all. A war is a war, and a robbery is a robbery."

"In our case, the intensity of robbery is actually much stronger than fighting."

"For example, our previous battles were at the level of robbery, including this time we encountered the regular army of the Kingdom of Luofen. They were all at the level of robbery."

"There has never been a true war level, including the two times we conquered the forest people, both of which were at this level."

"If it were at war level, it would be a confrontation between the two sides on the grass with a group of people, swearing and shouting at each other, and then throwing weapons."

"If a few are slightly injured, they have to go back to their respective homes. Usually if they don't fight at night, and if they can't get up in the morning, they will fight at noon."

The more Sariel listened, the more strange she became, "You mean that in terms of war, it's very weak?"

Lawrence said: "Yes, this time those people planned to rob us, but they didn't expect that we were not the ones being robbed, we were also robbers!"

"The fight between robbers and robbers is much more serious than a war."

"People who go back now will tell those people that we are not weak, but robbers who can rob them, so they can only be in war mode when they come again."

"Usually war mode requires the mobilization of more people and is more difficult to control effectively."

Salil was still confused and said honestly: "I don't understand."

Lawrence explained: "If they came here for revenge, they would definitely not be able to recruit people, because now everyone has something to do."

Lawrence looked at the field in front of him, stood up and pointed forward and said: "It's like when you are harvesting wheat, if someone calls you to fight, will you go?"

"Definitely!" Salil was very decisive. "If we don't go to war, what will happen?"

Lawrence put it another way, "If it was five years ago, when you and I had not met, the Domu village was attacked, and you and Andrew happened to be harvesting wheat, would you go to help?"

"What does that have to do with me?" Salil frowned.

Lawrence said: "For the nobles near Earl Sider, this is the difference, and it is the same for the people in Pig Trotter City."

"After the Earl's death, these people will only be busy fighting for territory and property, and will not care about us at all."

"Even if they want to control us, they will no longer treat us as weak, let alone feel that they can kill us and rob us of our treasures casually."

"Even if a barbarian wants to make a fortune, he will not rob someone who is stronger than him. This is true whether it is a Valkyrie or a person from Pig Trotter City."

"They will only bully those who are weaker than themselves. For example, the Wakiri will fight the Kur people, the Kur people will fight the Pumi Xiu people, and the Phumi Xiu people will also fight the Doum and Ug people."

Sofia asked curiously: "Master, are the Kur people stronger than the Pumixiu people?" Lawrence said: "I thought about this many times later. In fact, the Kur people are not weak. Their men were killed by the Vakiri. Many died at the hands of Andrew, Redbeard, and a group of strong Valkyries."

"Later, when those who escaped attacked the town of Pumixiu, they also killed the blacksmith and many men who had not drunk."

"We were able to win that time because of our pursuit in the snow. The Kur people didn't have the frost resistance like us, and they didn't expect that we would catch up."

"Not to mention anything else, the archer that time was very powerful. It happened to be a windy and snowy night. If he hadn't been unable to see at night and his fingers were frozen and unable to draw the bow, he would have died during the day. A lot of people."

Sofia suddenly realized, "It's true! I thought the Kur people were weak, about the same as the Ug people."

Seeing that there were some misunderstandings between Sophia and Salil, Lawrence explained the current division of combat power.

"Reglo and Manderkru are not strong. They are not as strong as Salil, Kharan, and Dren. They are not the strongest among you."

"Actually, Friesen is stronger than Mandekru and Reglo."

Sofia frowned, "That's right, I thought that fat guy Friesen wasn't as powerful as Mandekru and Reglo."

Lawrence said: "Friesen used to be a warrior in Pumexiu Town except for Doug Blacksmith. Compared with Doug, it is not a defect in strength. It is mainly due to poor interpersonal relationships and bad personality that no one likes him."

Salil and Sophia both nodded in agreement.

Lawrence continued: "Fries should be the most powerful person besides you. There are also a few very strong people among his partners, and then there are several warriors from the Cloda people, and Delen's men are also Not weak, I placed them near the manor because they are stronger."

"It's not easy to compare with Fleiss. I haven't arranged for these people to compare, but from some situations I have observed, the gap is not big. The two most powerful Clodagh warriors are enough to deal with Fleiss."

Delen's men are not weak, and are better at group combat. They kill without batting an eyelid and dare to charge forward. However, their brute force is simply weaker, and their ability to withstand attacks is not as good as those of the barbarians.

"The Snow Cave people are actually not weak either. I have observed those Snow Cave people. They are very strong in resisting attacks and have very strong endurance. They are just like wild beasts, unable to fight easily and have forgotten how to fight to the death."

Due to the harsh environment, the Snow Cave people are very restrained in violence among the groups. They do not get hurt if they can. Even when hunting, they give priority to dogs.

The only occasion that can be considered a serious fight is probably when fighting for a spouse.

However, due to the harsh living environment of the Snow Cave people, it is easy for men to die outside. Therefore, there are often family combinations of one woman and four or five men, so losers also have the opportunity to join, so the competition is very peaceful.

"To put it all together, as long as more people in the south can have enough to eat, their combat effectiveness is actually significantly stronger than that in the north."

"The Valkyries are definitely weaker than the people we defeated this time. We actually already have the strength to fight against the Valkyries."

Sophia asked unexpectedly: "Compared with the people like Andrew the Redbeard, can we also rob them?"

Lawrence remained silent, and Salil said unhappily: "Why did you rob my father?"

Sofia explained seriously: "They are pirates in the West. If they rob our ship, we will definitely beat them!"

"Besides, they have robbed so many things in the West. Wouldn't it be easier for us to just let Fleiss lead the people to rob Redbeard? Andrew will definitely help us!"

Lawrence was suddenly also curious about where Red Beard had made his home.

"We don't lack that thing now. There is no need to fight with Red Beard, but Red Beard is indeed a trouble. I feel like he looks down on me a bit."

Lawrence had actually wanted to deal with Red Beard many times, and every time he had a little bit of strength, he would use Red Beard's side as a comparison.

Salil said quickly: "Then beat him! Let him look down on us!"

Sofia echoed: "There are no good people in the Valkyrie! Regolo said the same!"

Lawrence nodded, "Yeah."
