Chapter 1 The Tradition of the Dwarves or something
Therefore, the alliance between Scotland and Norway was circulated by the British Isles. England was cautious and not mentioned. While the United Kingdom of Ireland and Wales were happy to get a strong support, they were also very puzzled why she was not called on such a thing. A man with a white skin and a slightly dead body with a strange rune on his jaw. My king, who looked even more villain than a villain (black saber), was quite dissatisfied with this matter, so he wrote a letter to ask King Kenneth I of Scotland. The final answer was: soldiers were very fast, so he was not able to see him. He did not intend to offend your country, and promised to hold another alliance after defeating England next time...
At the same time, Egil was also questioned by his dwarf allies - the dwarfs didn't say anything before, but because after sailing on the sea for so long, almost all dwarfs had seasickness to varying degrees. The people who were sitting in medium-sized transport ships or light crossbow warships were slightly better, and at least there was a crowded, narrow, dark and wet cabin that sheltered from the wind and rain. But the dwarfs who came on the Dragon Head Battleship were a little miserable. Not only did the sea water come in, but maybe they would be rolled over if they were waves...
Therefore, after the dwarves arrived on the shore, they became dead dogs without exception. The 30,000 army mentioned by Egil should actually be more than 10,000 Viking warriors, plus 20,000 dead dog dwarves with no combat effectiveness. Of course, because he is the protagonist, he will basically not be criticized. If you deceive people or be deceived by others, you will get benefits.
Why can you get benefits if you are cheated?!
However, recently, dwarves have been correcting in the Auckland Islands for a while, and as their physical strength gradually recovers, they seem to have their IQ. Many dwarves began to wonder:
During the last Norman Rapidation and Viking invasion, the Viking-Dwarf coalition was defeated by the English-Irish coalition. Eggill naturally didn't care about this kind of thing. It had little to do with him - but for the dwarves, whether it was the English, the Irish, or the elves who lived in the forests of Wales, these were all their enemies, all of them that they should have cut the accounts to death.
Although the Scots did not provoke the dwarves too much. But they are now allies of the Ireland-Welsh United Kingdom. Although the vassal of the vassal is not my vassal, the enemy's friends must be the enemy. The dwarves simply, their brains that could not turn around instantly passed this rule. They also regarded the Scots as enemies.
So what about the Norwegians? Although the Norwegians are also allies of the dwarves themselves, they are also allied with the Scots. So the enemy's friends' friends... should also be enemies, right?
But for the Norwegians, the dwarves could not - or dare not treat them so simply and rudely. After all, without the Norwegian fleet, they would not be able to go back to Scandinavia. Even if they defeated the Vikings and then snatched their ships... But the dwarves and ships are one hundred - negative numbers - would they have to take the helm themselves? In that case, they would have to drive into Atlantis and be with the sea god...
So the dwarves did not want to turn against the Norwegians before they had no choice but to take a backlash, so they rarely adopted a roundabout strategy. To be simple, they were negotiating.
Of course, for the straight-minded dwarves, the so-called negotiations and questioning or even accusations are no different. The new dwarves King Wald pointed directly at Egil's nose and said his fault. He asked him to immediately cut off the covenant with the Scots.
Faced with such an idiotic allies, Egil rolled his eyes and complained in his heart: As expected, teammates like pigs are worse. Then he said:
"So, Wald, my friend, what do you think we should do? Offend the entire British Isles and then use one country to fight against the three alliances?" Faced with the questioning of the current Dwarf King, who is also Egil's only ally at present, Egil was a little helpless. After all, almost two-thirds of his so-called 30,000 army were Dwarf Legil. He also hoped to rely on the Dwarf Legil to be cannon fodder for him to conquer the world. So it was not easy to offend him to death.
"Then, what's wrong with the Sa family fighting all over Britain?" asked Wald.
"Because we are not strong enough," Egil explained, "So, we have to eat food bite by bite, and things have to be done step by step... Our real enemies are England and Ireland. It is not about Scotland's affairs, right?"
"But the Scots have formed an alliance with the Irish, aren't they?"
"You can also break the contract after an alliance." Egil said naturally: "And, take a closer look at the covenant between them - it is completely against England. That is to say, the kind that will automatically terminate the covenant after England is defeated. It is only temporary."
"Well, it's like our covenant with you Norwegians." Wald nodded and said yes.
Egil rolled his eyes and thought to himself: If you don’t mention this, you will die?! Do you know how to write the word embarrassment? After the meow, I did destroy England and Ireland, the covenant ended - if you want to go back to Scandinavia, just swim back by yourself!
This made me think about the dwarves struggling in the water, while driving the warship: Ahahaha... the scene passing by. Egil's mood suddenly improved a lot.
"Yes, my friend." Egil said: "So, we win over Scotland, and then collectively besiege England. After destroying England, we will attack Ireland. You see, you will defeat it step by step, so that you can easily take revenge (and expand your territory)."
"But the Sa family thinks it's too slow..." Wald pondered: "So what's the trouble? Isn't it better to kill him all the way? Whoever blocks the way will kill him!"
...A group of damn brainless barbarians. Egil's smile became brighter, but his anger became more and more obvious.
"Compared with victory, it's not a big deal to be a little troublesome. Is it right?" Egil said.
"Do you think our powerful dwarf warriors will lose?!" Valder immediately smashed the table in front of Egil with his big fist, and then the tragic table broke.
"Don't forget - why did we set foot on this land." Egil also withdrew his smile and reminded him with gritted teeth.
Wald was stunned for a moment, then muttered in a low voice: "That's because our powerful dwarf warriors are not ready..." However, although he still defended this way, his voice was no longer so persistent.
"So, my friend, I know the strength of your dwarf soldiers. But even if the army is powerful, even if it is weak, casualties will be inevitable, right? Don't you want an extra dwarf boy to return to your hometown in Scandinavia safely?"
"...Okay, for the sake of the lives of the dwarf boys." In the end, Wald's attitude softened. However, he was still frowning. He must have been thinking about how to deal with the dwarf elders after he went back and convinced them.
"Ah hahahaha... Okay, my friend, the main thing has been talked about. So next, let's have a drink and celebrate."
Wald immediately smiled again when he heard this. Dwarfs are famous for their liking. The wine produced in the system tastes really good. Even if Egil doesn't drink much, he likes to drink for a drink after all. It seems like a barrel nation like Dwarfs, let alone.
——Of course, a barrel of good wine costs 100 points. If you sell it, you have to exchange for at least one thousand gold coins. Egil will never suffer any loss.
Although the dwarf king has a respectable status, his actual rights are much smaller than those of the human king, and he has no economic privileges. Therefore, it seems that Wald can't drink such good wines produced in such a system. It was not until after the Norwegian-Dwarf coalition formed that Wald often ran to Egil to drink wine every now and then. This is also one of the reasons why he couldn't stand up in front of Egil and was easily convinced.
At the banquet, Wald, who had drunk too much, complained to Egil with his tongue: "I was convinced by you. But after I go back, how should I tell the elders? Those guys are like the hardest stones in the mine. They must use a harder shovel and pick to pry. In words, it is...ah." As he said that, Wald took a big sip of wine. Then he stopped talking.
"Oh?! Is this actually the case?!" Egil, who had long studied the dwarf political organization, pretended to be surprised at this moment: "Shouldn't the king's rights be free from any restrictions or restrictions?"
"No, no, no, we dwarves are not quite the same as you humans..." Wald continued to say with his tongue wide.
"But this is really inefficient." Egil said with a frown.
"Effective, efficiency?" Wald repeated Egil's words in a daze.
"Yes, efficiency-you dwarves are a straightforward nation who doesn't like to waste time, right?"
“Hey…yes.”
"So, what you could decide alone is now necessary to discuss with more than a dozen dwarf elders. It has been a long time since the troubles are made. Isn't this inefficient?" Egil continued.
"…It seems to make some sense...but the system of the Dwarf Elders' Council is a tradition since ancient times..."
"Hey? Is this really the case? It seems that the nation like you, why did a nation like the dwarfs formulate such a tradition that is completely inconsistent with your dwarfs' character? Are there any secrets in this matter? Can you tell me?" Egil seemed very interested.
Wald stopped talking because he didn't know either.
"Hey? Don't you know? What's going on? Traditional or something... Is there a dark story - sorry, I didn't intend to be responsible for them - but those dwarf elders - or, in other words, are they..."
