  Chapter 1554 Chapter 1540. Battle of the Highlands 10

   Moyunling North Pass, Aigrod tribe camp.

  According to the report from the guards, a noble lord has come outside the north city wall, and has been invited in now... Chief Logan thought it was the lord of Suldak.

Then I heard the guards say that the person who came was not Lord Suldak, nor any officer under Lord Suldak, but a noble lord who had never seen it before, and they still couldn't understand Egger Rhodes, both sides can not communicate.

   It was only because they were from the Green Empire that they were allowed to enter the Beishankou camp.

  Clan Chief Logan hurriedly asked the guards to invite the lord to the meeting hall.

  He thought that he had received a call-up order from Suldak a few days ago, and that the Aegrod tribe had already dispatched 50,000 troops to walk westward along the roots of the northern mountains.

  At this time, another noble lord is sent, maybe the plan has changed.

  Thinking of this, he couldn't help but quicken his pace.

The situation on the Moyunling Highlands is changing rapidly. For the Allied Forces of the Aegrod Tribe, it is okay to rely on the city wall of the North Mountain Pass to block the retreat of the evil spirit army, but if they want them to send troops to attack the evil spirit camp in Mount Horsens It's a little risky.

   There are also two tribal chiefs who are on duty at night in the meeting hall. They are keeping watch in the meeting hall to deal with emergencies at night on the northern city wall.

  However, there was a **** battle when the North City Wall was first built, and there was no more war after that, and the evil spirits would not be active at night.

   The Aigrod Tribal Alliance Army is guarding the North Mountain Pass, and they haven't seen the evil ghost army at all recently.

  Suldak left behind ample armaments and supplies before he left. After the **** battle last time, the patriarchs of the various tribes suddenly felt that those evil spirits that were more terrifying than scourges seemed less scary.

  When Patriarch Logan saw Marquis Heller, he felt that this noble lord was more imposing than Lord Suldak.

   No wonder the guards reported that the person who came was a lord.

  The meeting hall is the place where the patriarchs of the tribal alliance army usually discuss things. It is located at the front of several rows of small buildings built behind the north city wall.

The square building with masonry structure is quite in the architectural style of the Tarapakan area. There are two side rooms on both sides of the main hall, and a ring made of square rocks at the main entrance. under the ashes.

  A group of patriarchs gathered in the meeting hall, and they were chatting with Marquis Heller.

  They came here to exchange something with the lord from the empire.

  Warcraft materials are also good,

  Magic herbs are also good,

  Now the evil spirits in the northern mountains at the foot of Moyunling North Mountain have almost disappeared, and the hunters in the tribe can go hunting in the northern mountains.

Some materials that are useless to them are all good things in the eyes of this group of imperial people. There are many materials that can be exchanged, such as linen cloth, copper and iron utensils, food, daily sundries for daily life, everything can be used .

  But the noble lord sat in the meeting hall with a sullen face all the time, and after occasionally speaking a word in Imperial language, he found that everyone couldn't understand it, so he fell silent.

  The walls around the hall are lit with pine torches. These woods are soaked in pine oil and can burn for a long time after being ignited.

  The room was filled with a strong smell of pine oil. The dome of the room was very high, and the smoke floated out along the transom windows in the roof, and the hall was filled with fireworks.

  Clan Chief Logan walked in from the outside, and all the patriarchs stood up to greet him.

  Marquis Heller saw Chief Logan coming in and knew that this was the chief of the aboriginal tribe, so he nodded to Chief Logan and asked, "Can you understand Imperial language?"

"I can understand a little bit, and we can have a simple communication." Chief Logan looked at Marquis Valentine Heller, and smelled the unique smell of imperial nobles from him, the kind of arrogance that came out of his bones. No matter how you do it, it's hard to hide it.

  Marquis Heller said indifferently: "I am Marquis Valentin Heller, the lord of the tundra in the west of Moyunling."

  He felt that speaking to an aboriginal aborigine in this way was already giving him the greatest respect.

   "..."

   What Chief Logan originally wanted to say suddenly became speechless.

  What is the tundra lord in the west of Moyunling? Shouldn’t the entire Moyunling be the domain of Lord Suldak?

  If it wasn't for... the so-called handing over Moyunling to the Aegrod tribe as promised by Lord Suldak, wouldn't it be empty talk.

But if... what Lord Suldak promised was false, then he used so many weapons and equipment to help the Aigrod tribe form an army of more than 100,000, wouldn't he shoot himself with a stone feet?

  He really wanted to ask Marquis Heller, isn't the lord of the Moyunling Highland the Earl of Suldak?

  Suddenly realized that the person sitting in front of him turned out to be a marquis, and the lord of Suldak was heard to be just an earl, and the rank of nobility was one level lower.

  Clan Chief Logan wanted to know more about the situation, so he leaned forward and said, "I am Logan, Chief Patriarch of the Kurman Tribe of the Aegrod Clan. What are you doing here?"

  The string of titles made Marquis Heller dizzy, but he still heard the last sentence clearly.

  Marquis Heller said directly: "We also just learned that the Aigrod tribe built a wall at the northern mountain pass of Moyunling. I came here to borrow money from the Hegui tribe to leave Moyunling."

   "Leaving Moyunling?" Patriarch Logan's expression changed slightly.

Further north is the northern mountain range, which belongs to the residence of the Aegrod tribe. Chief Logan thinks that they have no reason to leave. Even if they leave, they should leave through the South Mountain Pass. Now they leave through the North Mountain Pass. This matter It's a little abnormal.

  The tribal chiefs sitting around saw the big change in Chief Logan's face, and they all looked at Marquis Heller in astonishment, and the meeting hall became silent for a while.

   Now is the time when the Aegrod tribe and the imperial army jointly resist the evil ghost army. Why do the imperial army want to detour and leave Moyunling at this time?

   And the road chosen will pass through the settlement of the Aegrod tribe...

  …

  Marquis Heller has keenly sensed some subtle changes in the atmosphere in the meeting hall. He guessed that he said that he borrowed the road to leave Moyunling, and these tribes and natives would most likely not rest assured that the imperial army would enter their territory.

He then explained: "At present, my army is being bitten by an army of evil spirits, and the reinforcements from Handanar County cannot arrive in time, so we can only prepare for the worst and choose to withdraw from the northern tundra... "

   "However, if we can find a strong reinforcement to help me block the attack of the evil spirits, then my heavy armored infantry regiment can hold the land here and wait for the reinforcements to arrive."

   Then he stated the purpose of his trip:

"If your tribe is willing to send troops to fight against the evil spirits with us, I think it will be very beneficial to both of us, and as long as you are willing to fight against the evil spirits with us, the promise I can make is to give some compensation in terms of military supplies .”

  He thought that if Chief Logan rejected his proposal to borrow the road to leave, then he would most likely agree to his second proposal.

  …

   "Do you want us to join forces to resist evil spirits?" asked Chief Logan.

  In his heart, he had more doubts about the identity of the Marquis of Heller.

   Hasn’t the alliance contract between us been signed a long time ago?

  You come here... If you directly say that you have encountered a siege by evil spirits, please send troops to break the siege. I am afraid that the Aegrod Alliance Army is already on the road at this moment.

  But why did Marquis Heller make such a big circle?

  The biggest possibility is that the Marquis of Heller didn't even know that Lord Suldak signed an alliance contract with the Aigrod tribe.

   "There is indeed such a plan."

"I think the Aigrod tribe built a city wall here to resist the evil spirit army, probably to guard against the evil spirit army's continued northward invasion, so joining us together to fight against the evil spirit army is absolutely beneficial. A bad thing."

   "As long as your tribe can help us solve this crisis, I can promise to wait for our supplies to arrive here, and I am willing to give some of them to our future allies for free."

  The doubts in Chief Logan's heart are even bigger.

   Isn't the supplies we are using now given by you?

  There must be some problems between the Marquis of Valentine Heller and Lord Suldak, but there is no one to discuss with them at this time.

   Chief Logan thought for a while, and then said to Marquis Haile: "This matter cannot be decided by me alone. I need to discuss it with other tribe chiefs."

   "Come here, take Valentine Heller and his party to have a rest."

  The last sentence Chief Logan said in the native language, immediately two guards walked in and asked Marquis Heller to leave the meeting hall.

  …

  Marquis Heller didn't expect that he didn't say what supplies to give away!

   He was actually invited out by this group of natives.

  Marquis Heller suppressed the anger in his heart, and the only one who dared to treat him like this in Handanal City...only Grand Duke Newman.

  Although they know that this kind of discussion is necessary, it is not a good thing to enter the second round of discussions so quickly, because they did not listen to their own conditions at all.

  Perhaps these natives may have better results when they hear the conditions they set out.

  Marquis Valentin Heller led a group of personal guards walking on the cobbled streets in the residential area behind the city wall, thinking about how to impress the chief of the indigenous tribe.

  He thinks Chief Logan looks easy to talk to...

  Maybe provide some weapons, armor and horses to these tribes, and they will happily agree.

  Marquis Heller was walking, when he heard the guards around him whispering:

   "Why do the buildings here look a bit like the style of our Tarapakan area..."

   "Yes! If I hadn't confirmed that I was on the Moyunling Highlands, I would have thought I had returned to a small town in my hometown..."

   "..."

  Marquis Heller felt as if someone had punched him hard in the heart.
