MTL - Cthulhu Gonfalon-Chapter 901 ·Total mobilization (below)
When the human society was mobilized, the orcs were not idle.
The contemporary orc emperor "Iron Teeth" Ilo hosted a conference to bring together the leaders of the orcs' various tribes.
The conference was not held in the "big money account" of the orc empire, but was held in the wilderness outside the big golden account. Emperor Ilo stood on the high platform and took a chariot.
"Humans are going to attack us." He said straight away, "It’s not the kind of small-scale attack in the past, but to do everything in their power to mobilize all the troops they can mobilize, to dispatch all their knights who can be dispatched, and to assemble all of them. Allies who can gather, send out all the gods they can send - to attack us."
He shouted, the voice echoing in the wilderness, into the ears of every chief, echoing in their hearts.
"Well, they are coming, killing everything with the scale never seen in the past. I have estimated that there will be ... three million people or more troops, if necessary, It is not impossible to double it and even double it on that basis."
"So, are you afraid?"
Many chiefs have changed their faces, and some have pale faces. This is frightened by that amazing number; some face is red, which is because their courage is angry with other insults.
Emperor Ilo did not give the chiefs a chance to speak. He continued: "To be honest, when I first heard this number, I was really worried."
"Three million! Three million! This is an amazing number! Not to mention that it may be six million, even one million two million... God!" He shouted loudly, his voice filled with distress "Cut off so many heads, there is not enough money in my treasury to give bonuses!"
The chiefs suddenly laughed, and the pale face was not pale. The red was not red, and even those who were calm before, could not maintain the calmness of the face, and the laughter became one.
"Hey! Don't laugh! I am very serious!" The face of Ilo's emperor with many scars showed a very serious and distressed look. "I am really serious! A soldier's head counts A gold coin, an officer's head counts ten gold coins, a knight's head counts a hundred gold coins, a baron or a viscount - assuming he is not a knight, then the head counts three hundred gold coins, the count's head counts a thousand gold coins, The heads of the Marquis, the Duke, and the King count 10,000 gold coins - everyone knows this rule, and the market is like this. I can't take the opportunity to suppress the price because of the flood of goods. Old Iro is not that kind of person."
"How much do you care about?"
Many chiefs have closed their eyes, or bowed their heads and silently calculated.
Regrettably, the education level of the orcs is generally not high, and they quickly turn around in the numbers, and there is no result.
"I specifically looked for someone to forget. Finally, Old Wilder told me that if I want to keep my good name for a long time to be fair and trustworthy, I am going to prepare more than 30 million gold coins!"
Emperor Yilu shook his head, and his face couldn't be loved: "God! 30 million gold coins! After I got this number, I checked it twice in the treasury. I want to open the floor and see if there is a copper. It was only found in the inside... No, this can’t be said, it’s too bad to say it.”
"All in all, anyway, I am bankrupt this time." He spread his hands, very helpless.
The chiefs laughed again and laughed and leaned forward.
Unlike the wise and wise former emperor Eunice, Ilo is a veteran who has been slowly promoted from the army. He has never had any majesty and has always appeared in front of everyone with a crisp and straightforward image. This time is no exception.
The emperor who would like to say that he had no money in the national treasury was probably unprecedented.
"Everyone knows that the old Yiluo is a law-abiding credit, so I thought of a way." Yiluo said, "Although I can't rely on the account, I can owe debts! Anyway, the state treasury has so much money, and it is in front of it. I am rewarding according to the rules. After the merits... I am sorry, the Emperor’s Majesty is not a debt, but there is no money for you, so please wait.
"In other words, if you still want to get the rewards as you have in the past, and get the benefits, wait for the best after the war. Don't delay, otherwise you can only hope that your life is long enough. I can find enough money to pay for your reward."
In the laughter of the chiefs, Emperor Ilo waved his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.
"Well, the joke is finished, now I am doing business - oh, that was not a joke before, I am serious."
The chiefs laughed again.
Ilo smiled and suddenly looked serious and shouted: "The orc brothers, are you afraid of war?"
Subconsciously, all the chiefs shouted together: "Not afraid!"
"Yes, not afraid!" Ilo yelled. "We orcs never fear war. The war is just as normal for us to eat and sleep. Fight humans, cut down their heads, get rewards, win girls. Favored, passed down the family, and finally went to the temple of the gods - this is the way of life of our orcs, from ancient times to modern times, passed down from generation to generation."
"We are not afraid of war. On the contrary, we like war. We love war! We orcs are warriors created by the gods to imitate their appearance. The meaning of our lives is to fight for the gods. When they are alive, they fight for them and die. After that, they still fight for them. Except for war, we don't need to pay attention to anything else!"
"I won't promise you anything, because I have to fight, I have to put on armor, pick up weapons, lead the most brave warriors, rush to the battlefield, fight as much as I can, kill as many enemies as possible. I used my blood to dye my equipment with a beautiful bright red, and added a new brilliance to my throne with the enemy's first level. Although I am old, I am still a warrior! I pursue the honor, the heart of the war, will not lose to Any young man!"
"Those weak human beings, those ants who have been crushed by us since the day of their birth, those who have been rushed to escape, have no courage to slash our swords, and dare to bully the weak locusts, this time they are When you are faint, you will come to attack us!"
"All the time, we can't destroy them because they run all the way and run faster than anything. They are too many, they can't catch them, they can't kill them, just like the mosquitoes in summer. , annoying to die."
"But this time, these ants, locusts, mosquitoes... they jumped out and jumped in front of us and jumped to our knife!"
"So what are you waiting for?"
The old orc emperor showed a sly smile, raised the tomahawk, and screamed: "Crush them!"
The roar and roaring sounds contiguous, rushing into the sky, turning into a battle cloud.
