Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

At this time, Fenubar finally knew why Imric delayed coming to the War Council for a few days. He just wanted to take advantage of everyone's anxiety and speak loudly, saying in a low tone, "Since Sir Imric If you want to participate in trade, that is naturally a good thing. When I talked about this matter with Sir Mikhail, he expressed clear opposition, and I will send the Minister of Trade to discuss the matter with Caledor's special envoy."

He glanced at Fenuba calmly and saw that Mikhail was the former dragon relative.

But Fenuba's words are interesting. If it weren't for his identity as a time traveler, he would definitely be deceived by this guy. It's true that the former Dragon Prince was not interested in trade, but part of the reason was Fenuba's inducement.

Because apart from stones, Caledo's only special product is armaments, and Fenuba said that Caledo would provide a large amount of financial assistance as long as it defeated Druzi.

He also hinted that if he behaved well, he would support Imric to run for the next Phoenix King, which allowed the former prince to focus on the war.

But the result is that Caledor's financial situation is getting worse and worse. The more people die in the war, the less likely it is to win. When there is nothing to do, they will ask for help from the Phoenix King Court. When the time comes, Caledo's The dragon and the dragon prince will be bound to Fenubar's throne.

After listening to Fenuba's words, Lilaze gave a different condition, "Since the prince does not need money, I heard that Governor Glington is presiding over the expansion of the Young Dragon Bay Port, Avalon will provide Caledo with A batch of high-quality wood shows support, I wonder how many people and armaments the prince can provide now?"

Imric nodded secretly after getting some of the things he wanted. Although these things would not be profitable in the short term, they were a long-term project, "an army of three thousand men and four thousand sets of equipment."

Not satisfied yet? While several others were looking at Imrik, the Dragon Prince was already looking at Eldraine and Gilgarion, waiting for them to make a bid.

"Tyron Locke can provide a batch of Ysrama silver and 40,000 gold leaf coins." Azrael, knowing that this time he was going bankrupt and avoiding disaster, sighed. Compared with the casualties, he was more willing to let Imric lead People have eliminated the threat of invasion of Warcraft.

Finally, everyone looked at Gilgarion, which made him feel very embarrassed. After all, he had been challenging others just now, and now he was waiting for help. But there was no way. Yesterday's report showed that there were several manticores and chimei. Pull and the hydra pulse from Mount Annulli towards the grasslands of Erion.

It is simply a fantasy to let the cavalry deal with those giant beasts. The effect of the Eagle Claw Ballista against these giant beasts is actually just that. With the protection of Xie Yue, it is a bit fanciful to really think that the ballistae can kill the giant beasts. .

He gritted his teeth and said, "Seventy thousand gold leaves."

Unexpectedly, Imric shook his head directly, "What makes you think that I am a lowly businessman? Prince Gilgarion, if you want gold leaves, I can directly open the treasure house of the Dragon Palace and take the Doomsday Iron inside." Anvil trades with the dwarves, and the gold in their treasury is much more than yours."

At this time, Morarion, as the peacemaker, suddenly intervened, "Calledor's contribution to Ulthuan is obvious to all, and some compensation should be made. Yris will use a batch of Ysrama silver to In exchange for a batch of armaments, Elion should also show some sincerity."

This shrewd old guy, Gilgalion cursed in his heart, but he still said, "Elion will also use a batch of Ysrama silver in exchange for armaments."

Unexpectedly, Imrik still shook his head, "It seems that you still don't understand what I mean, Prince Gilgalion, for your insulting remarks to Caledor, I think you need to use your most precious thing from Elion to make up for this fault. "

The most precious thing? Gilgarion soon thought that this guy wanted a war horse, and asked with a gloomy face, "How many do you want?"

Stretching out his index finger, Imrik spoke calmly, as if it was a matter of course, "Ten thousand horses, I promise that Elion will not suffer any losses in this Twilight Tide, and armaments will also be provided to Rider of Arion.”

Looking coldly at the Dragon Prince who opened his mouth in front of the lion, Erion could bring out so many war horses, but after doing so, it would not be as simple as a palace conspiracy after returning, "Four thousand at most."

Unexpectedly, Imric had no intention of bargaining with him. He stood up directly and said to the Phoenix King, "Your Majesty, since Prince Gilgarion thinks that insulting Caledor is a trivial matter." , then after this dusk tide, I will go to Ariel personally to ask for an explanation."

Then she looked at the chief maid, "Ms. Lilaze, Caledor has two hundred dragon princes stationed in Avalon. I need them to return to Caledor and defend the glory of Caledor together with the dragon lord."

The meeting reached a deadlock again because of Imrik's words. At the level of a prince, words carry great weight. Judging from Imrik's appearance, if Elion didn't give a satisfactory answer, he wouldn't mind after a lapse of time. Thousands of years later, Malekith launched an elven civil war.

The reason is also very simple. Originally, the two sides were constantly discussing according to the tradition of Assur, but Erion insulted the Dragon Prince because of his inappropriate remarks, and the Caledonians, who valued honor, heard that other kingdoms insulted the Dragon Prince, mobilized public opinion, and Imri Ke originally wanted to stop him, but he couldn't stand the excitement of the people, so he had no choice but to lead his troops to Airion.

It is difficult for other kingdoms to send troops to help Ariel for such seemingly legitimate reasons, and Ariel's strength is comparable to Caledor.

No matter how serious the decline in Caledor's strength is, it is not something that the Elyon people, who mainly rely on light cavalry, can defeat them.

At this moment, a magic projection suddenly appeared on the ring Lilaze placed on the table, and a woman with an extremely dignified temperament and as calm as water appeared on it. Her long golden waterfall-like hair was tied behind her head, and her eyes were like the most beautiful. As beautiful and restrained as a delicate gemstone, with an excellent face, she is the Eternal Queen—Alarielle.

Seeing the Eternal Queen watching the war council through magic projection, everyone except Fenuba stood up and bowed.

In the projection, the Queen told others not to be polite. Alarielle looked at the Dragon Prince, her voice was clear and melodious, like the song of a lark, "Dragon Prince, Prince Gilgarion's remarks are indeed inappropriate, but this is not a cause for concern. The reason for the conflict between the two countries, as Elsa’s daughter, I hope that you two can coexist peacefully.”

To be honest, Imric was a little surprised when he saw the Eternal Queen for the first time.

This woman is indeed beautiful. No wonder Brother Tai was fascinated by it, but suddenly it seemed that she was just like that. She didn't have a pair of eyes, a nose and a mouth. She was not as beautiful as Silver Moon Dragon Agnegnir. Ha, woman , it will only affect the speed at which I make money.

He bowed slightly and saluted Alarielle. The Caledonian attitude towards the Eternal Queen was a little better than that of the Phoenix King, and he began to behave miserably again, "Your Majesty, I never thought that for the first time since I succeeded to the throne, This was the scene when I participated in the War Council. When the Phoenix King told me to rush to Lothern, I wiped out the monsters around Tal Kaled as quickly as possible, and asked Randy to take charge of the palace, just to fulfill my duties as soon as possible. Caledor’s obligation.”

"Unexpectedly, before I even entered the War Council, I heard that Prince Gilgarion was planning Caledor's sparse armaments. It really chilled me, and his words seriously insulted Caledor. If Without a reasonable explanation, the dragon and the lance might make Prince Gilgarion change his mind."

The Eternal Queen on the magic projection narrowed her eyes slightly. As someone who has dealt with the courts of various kingdoms all year round, she knew the meaning behind Imrik's words. It was okay not to fight, but you had to pay more.

Unexpectedly, the Caledonians who only had glory and bravery in their minds would be infected by the ugliness of Ulthuan politics. After thinking for a while, they spoke.

"One of the responsibilities of the Eternal Queen is to maintain the peace of Ulthuan. Just now, the Dragon Prince said that he wanted to participate in trade. Avalon has the best quality wood and can entrust Cosqui to build a trade fleet for Caledor. To make up for Caledor's losses from his years of fighting for Ulthuan."

This is an unexpected surprise. The cost of building a fleet is not low, but this time it will offend all countries.

But Imric didn't care about this matter. If Vaal's Anvil and the Sleeping Dragon weren't in the Dragon's Back Mountains, he would have run away with the bucket, so he wouldn't have waited for the toilet seat.

"Calledor naturally accepts His Majesty's love with respect, but Gilgalion must express his gratitude, otherwise the Dragon Court will be ridiculed, and the Caledonians will also think that Elion is evading responsibility for being protected by the Queen. As a As a prince who has only succeeded to the throne for two months, it is difficult for me to control the situation in the country."

Imrik's implication is that with just this little thing you gave me, I can besiege Elion without leading anyone, but I can't control the people under my command. It's another matter for them to organize a volunteer army.

Gilgarion also knew that he was going to lose money and avoid disaster this time. With the appearance of this Dragon Prince, if he did not give a satisfactory price this time, even if the willingness to fight was suppressed by the Eternal Queen, he would have to rely on the future armaments. Himself, and the blacksmith technology in Elion can only be said to need to refer to the smelting level of the nomadic civilization.

Gritting his teeth, he said his offer, "Six thousand horses, this is the maximum quantity I can provide."

"Seeing as the Queen took the trouble to personally pay attention to the War Council, seven thousand horses, I think the Caledonians can feel this sincerity." Imric made the gesture that represents seven in Assur, " And I promise that all future armaments will be handed over to Elion."

Gilgarion looked at the others and found that most of them didn't express anything. Eldraine and Morarion had already got what they wanted. Belannar was not interested in the struggle between these princes at all. Fenubar, as a famous person, The Phoenix King, who has more power than he actually has, still looks to Caledor to stabilize the king's power.

Before Tyrion, the descendant of Aenarion, suddenly emerged, Caledor was Ulthuan's most important support. Apart from the navy, he was the most capable of fighting. Even Cosque also needed Caledor's power. This ancient sea dragon is still held by the Dragon Palace, as well as three dragons fighting in the navy.

In addition to being poor, Caledor is a bad start for Imrik. The previous princes were too concerned about appearance and did not want to steal money, but as a time traveler, the current Dragon Prince does not have this burden. He only wants to give these people a good look. It will get on the nose and face, and if you don't make a fortune, you will be sorry for so many warriors who died on the battlefield.

Prince Airion, who understood the situation, nodded with difficulty. His family's horse farm must have provided more than half of the seven thousand horses. It can only be said that this war council, even if he did not participate, would not get any benefits, and would also cause a lot of trouble.
