He renounced the use of force to solve problems.
Compared with Melda's relaxed and happy expression, he actually didn't dare to make a decision after having planned it for a long time.
How can we fight?
The lizard man leader took a long breath and said loudly: "I am Taize, the leader of the Dolan tribe. May I ask who you are..."
Since he is willing to declare his family status, there is no hostility. This is also the rule of the lizard people.
Melda also smiled.
Her calmness and composure were only sustained.If Matthew hadn't been by her side, she would have run away long ago.
Although Dolan gave her strength, it was Matthew who gave her courage.
She said slowly: "I am Melda."
"You are that bastard..."
In the crowd, a young lizard man was slapped away by the lizard man leader Taize just in the middle of his words.
Seeking death, you idiot!
Melda's current identity is different from that of the past. Even if she recognizes her identity, there are certain things that must not be said nonsense!
Melda was very satisfied with Taize's knowledge and interest, and she did not pursue the blame.
Facing Taize and hundreds of elite tribesmen, Melda said softly:
"When God Dolan was here, this was the holy land of the ethnic group, but the great god has long since ceased to exist. Do you still want to stay here?"
Taize said with a helpless smile: "We also thought about leaving here, but the outside world is too complicated, and we lizard people are not accepted by mainstream society."
"I want to leave here. Is anyone willing to take us in?"
"Of course there is!"
Melda proudly turned her eyes to Matthew and introduced him loudly to the tribe.
She praised Matthew as the greatest saint in the world. These words were so disgusting that even a guy like Matthew who didn't want Bilian felt blushed after hearing this.
Finally, Matthew couldn't help but coughed and said, "Okay, there's no need to say these words anymore."
He said casually, and Melda immediately stopped speaking.
Seeing this scene, Taize and others finally realized that Melda was not the one who was in charge, but Matthew was actually in charge.
Taize hesitated to test, but Matthew got there first.
"Chief Taize, I am a real person. Even if it is just for Melda's sake, I am willing to take care of her people."
"But I am going to fight with the Kingdom of Perth now. I will come to pick you up after I finish this battle. You can enjoy equal treatment in my territory, but you must support yourself and support yourself with labor."
Matthew did not ask them to join his army.
Although the lizardmen have good combat capabilities, it is difficult to unify their command, and Matthew was traveling lightly and did not bring much supplies at all.
Seeing that Matthew never mentioned the army, Taize thought that Matthew was waiting for him to understand, and immediately said knowingly:
"Master Matthew, we are willing to live in your territory, and we lizardmen are loyal people and will never accept unreasonable kindness."
"We want to work for you."
Matthew nodded, accepting Taize's proposal.
Although they are not needed to join the army now, these lizardmen will definitely be useful when the rear is stabilized.
Taize obviously wanted to test Matthew, and of course he was unwilling to accept the move.
Unexpectedly, Matthew completely ignored the hint, which made Taize a little confused.
Lizardmen are excellent archers and are effective in swamps, wetlands, bushes, dense grass and other terrains.Who among the human lords wouldn't want to have an army of lizardfolk archers?
Matthew had this opportunity but didn't push him, which made Taize feel a little warm.
Maybe Melda was right, Lord Matthew was really willing to treat demi-humans like them equally.
If Matthew didn't take the initiative, Taize couldn't pretend to be dumb. This would make Matthew look down on him and the lizard man.So he said generously:
"Master Matthew, it is your kindness that you accept us, but we do not want to enjoy treatment for no reason. We lizardmen are all excellent warriors. Please allow us to join your army and fight bloody battles for you."
Matthew was very moved by Taize's enthusiasm, but Matthew still rejected him.
He couldn't tell the real reason and had to make up a reasonable excuse.
Therefore, Matthew said very [sincerely]: "Chief Taize, how many adult men are there in your tribe?"
"There are still more than 1 adult men, but our women and teenagers are also excellent fighters!"
Thinking of the current situation of the tribe's decline, Taize's expression was a little gloomy, but he clearly felt that Matthew did not recognize his strength, which he could not tolerate, so he roared loudly to express his position.
Seeing Taize's momentum of wanting to draw his sword and join the battle immediately, Matthew had a headache, but he still rejected Taize.
"Chief Taize. Rather than joining the army to fight now, I hope your tribe can develop and grow rapidly."
"When the population of your tribe increases, you only need to send an appropriate proportion of young people to give me more help. Take a long-term view, Chief Taize."
Although he was rejected by Matthew twice in a row, Matthew's sincerity moved Taize to tears.
This was the first time he saw human rulers treating them as human beings instead of simply using them as cannon fodder.
However, he still overestimated Matthew's moral standards.
Matthew was not a philanthropist and asked for something in return for everything he did.
This time it was just a trick that made Taize mistakenly think that Matthew was a good person.
After pacifying Taize, Matthew planned to join the army, rush out of the swamp, and look for the enemy's weak rear to take a bite.
He was a little worried about Andre and the others in front of him. They had spent too much time in the Dolan Temple, so he had to act as soon as possible.
When he heard Matthew saying that he was going to conquer the Kingdom of Perth, Taize remembered some past events and quickly reported to Matthew:
"Lord Matthew, just three days ago, General Gulila of the Kingdom of Perth wanted to ask me for the right of passage. I said at the time that the swamp was full of mud and it would be difficult to open a passage that could accommodate [-] troops. I hope he would give me some permission. time."
"Since you and the Kingdom of Perth are enemies, I will reject him."
After hearing Taize's statement, Matthew's lips smiled a little more.
He smiled and said: "Chief Taize, if the people of Perth Kingdom want to pass through the swamp so much, why do you want to stop them?"
"Ah?" Taize couldn't figure out the situation for a moment. Matthew's proposal had exceeded the limit of what his poor brain could understand.
Just when he was confused, Matthew simply explained.
Matthew's idea is simple, use the Taize chief to lead the people of the Perth Kingdom into the swamp, and then clean them up.
As long as you plan properly, this battle will be safe.
However, this is just Matthew's own optimism. Taize is shrouded in defeatism and does not dare to fight against tens of thousands of human troops.
"Lord Matthew, even if we carry out full mobilization and all the people are soldiers, we can only gather an army of 1 people, and the equipment and training are seriously insufficient. There is no way to fight against the people of the Kingdom of Perth."
Matthew was a little more impressed with Taizé.
Oh, he actually understands the importance of equipment and training. This leader of the Taize clan seems to be a man who knows how to fight.
Since you are someone who knows how to fight, it will be easy to handle.
Matthew smiled and said: "Your and my troops combined are much smaller than Gurila's troops. Of course, it will be difficult to win in a frontal battle."
"But why should we fight them head-on? We can bring them in and let them die deep in the swamp."
Matthew was happy for his genius idea, but Taize and Melda changed their expressions after hearing his words.
Melda grabbed Matthew's clothes and reminded him softly: "Master, this goes against our ancestral precepts."
"Lizard people respect nature and respect life. We must not just watch someone fall into the swamp and remain indifferent."
"Even if they are enemies!" Taize added loudly.
The lizard people in the queue glared at Matthew. Matthew's words touched the bottom line of the lizard people's thinking, and their attitude towards Matthew was also somewhat unpleasant.
Seeing these stubborn guys, Matthew cursed silently in his heart, and then made a new decision.
"That's easy to handle. Let's find a way to lure the enemy around this temple, then activate the maze and let them stay here for a while."
Taize looked at Matthew with some surprise and asked tentatively: "God Dolan's maze has disappeared, and you can actually repair it?"
With the fall of God Dolan, his maze gradually lost its effectiveness.This is also the reason why Taize and others can approach the temple.
If the human lord in front of him can repair God Dolan's maze, wouldn't it mean that his research on the formation is still...
When he was thinking wildly, Matthew smiled and made a gesture to introduce the actor, directing everyone's attention to Melda.
"Miss Melda has received the inheritance from God Dolan, so restoring the maze is just a trivial matter."
Chapter 160
The small town of Truss, ten miles south of Dolan Swamp, is home to the [-]-strong army of the Kingdom of Perth.
The young and cutting-edge officer Gulila is commanding this army.
This is a young nobleman in his early 20s. He has the title of earl and the rank of lieutenant general. He is also a leader among the young talents in the Kingdom of Perth.
At this time, he was sitting in the city hall, looking toward the northeast.
There was Lundebel, the end of his march.
In the past six months, he had completely experienced the war between the Kingdom of Perth, the Fire-seeking Khanate and the United Goblin Chamber of Commerce against the Clare Empire.
In the first stage, the coalition forces took the province by surprise, quickly captured the province of Groningen, and annihilated [-] imperial troops on the battlefield.
The situation of the coalition forces at this time is not a good one, but a great one.
In the second phase that followed, the empire woke up from a dream and mobilized an army of 50 to launch a counterattack against the coalition forces.
In the early stages of this stage, the two sides were at loggerheads and the war reached a stalemate.However, Matthew's appearance broke the deadlock.
He appeared like a ghost and actually acted as a team of adventurers in the Kingdom of Perth. He stabbed Fisher in the back and killed Fisher on the battlefield, turning the tide of the battle.
After Fisher's death, the imperial army launched a full-scale counterattack and once regained all the lost territory, even pushing it back into the kingdom.
However, the imperial army committed the taboo of underestimating the enemy and was ambushed. General Model was killed in battle, a large number of soldiers were captured, and the main force of 50 was defeated and basically lost its combat effectiveness.
With the death of Model, the war entered the third stage. With the support of the United Goblin Chamber of Commerce, the Kingdom of Perth stood up and began a massive counterattack.
The imperial army was defeated thousands of miles away. However, even with this advantage, there were discordant things happening in my good situation.
The city of Groningen remained in imperial hands.
The city was the capital of the province of Groningen and the largest city in the southwest of the empire, with a population of nearly one million before the war began.
After more than half a year of war, everyone with some ability has fled, and now only a few residents and more than 1 soldiers of the Walder Knights are left in the city.
The Kingdom of Perth never expected that hundreds of thousands of imperial troops could not withstand their attack before, but this city with only more than 1 people garrisoned would hold them back.
After mobilizing nearly [-] troops to attack several times and losing nearly [-] people, the Royal Army gave up the plan of attacking by force and instead encircled the point to provide reinforcements.
After the Miracle Night, Diana's status in the empire was much higher than before.If others are besieged, the Empire may not save them, but Diana must be saved.
The first army to rescue Diana was the Miracle Knights from the Earldom of Rundebell.
After Matthew's army entered the Great Plains, the coalition forces immediately mobilized their troops and sent the main force to besiege Andre's army.
At the same time, Gulila boldly proposed that he would lead a partial division through the Dolan Swamp and then go straight to Matthew's lair.
As long as Lundebel is taken down, Matthew will become a rootless duckweed with no room for comeback.
King Charles accepted the proposal without hesitation.
He was thinking further.
The previous three large-scale miracles created three empires, and the miracle that fell on Lundebel was the fourth.
If he can capture Lundebel, he can declare that he is the chosen one.
By then, a fourth empire, the Perth Empire, will appear on the continent.
It was driven by such ambition that the king agreed to Gurira's risky move.
He and Matthew thought of going together, but it was a pity that he didn't have Melda.
Gurira waited for a long time in Trus, and finally waited for Taize, the leader of the lizard people group.
Taize found him personally and made the lizardman's terms.
