Chapter 51: War is a Gold-Swallowing Beast(2/3)

In order to avoid the orcs being rushed to jump over the wall, the human side at least gave them a way to survive.

"Don't worry about material matters. Do you still remember what my brother once said?"

Compared to the people who are in a low mood.

But Lina kept calm as always.

"As long as there is enough profit, profit-oriented businessmen will dare to trample on all moral laws in the world."

"Sister, you mean..."

Wei Wei looked at Lina thoughtfully as soon as she heard this.

"Before the official war between us and the human side, I had sent someone to secretly go to the Kingdom of Baker to contact some merchants who often trade in the Domon region. At the same time, I gave them a price that they could not refuse..."

"Before the war is clear, these merchants will naturally not act rashly, but after we temporarily win this war, I believe these merchants will no longer be able to hold on and wait. In less than a month, they will transport the supplies we need!"

"Hiss! Aren't these merchants afraid of being found and executed?"

Vivi couldn't help but feel shocked.

"The interests drive them to take risks, and secondly, do you think the merchants who are qualified to trade in Domon are simple merchants?"

Lina said lightly.

"And you forgot one thing."

"What's the matter?"

"captive."

Lina gently spit out these two words.

"...So that's it. I finally understand why my elder sister asked all tribes to try to capture human knights and nobles alive."

After hearing this, Weiwei was silent for a moment.

Then he showed a sudden look.

The alliance is very poor.

Although there is a backlog of traded goods within the alliance, these goods cannot be sold at high prices and cannot be exchanged for essential materials that can last for the alliance for three months or even longer.

But it's different to have prisoners.

Lina knows a lot about human society.

Especially his most important enemy, Baker Kingdom.

She knows.

Any knight and nobles were defeated and captured.

The victorious party will not easily kill these nobles.

On the one hand, this is due to the unspoken rules among the nobles.

On the other hand, the captured nobles often demand a large amount of ransom.

For the poor alliance.

In the eyes of the alliance, these knights and nobles are shining gold coins.

Therefore, Lina specially ordered the tribes of the alliance.

Anyone who encounters knights and nobles on the battlefield will try to capture them alive.

As for how to distinguish it?

This is too simple.

Whoever wears the best equipment will have the most guards around him.

The other party can basically determine whether it is a knight or a nobleman.

This battle came to an end.

There were no less than a hundred knights and nobles captured by the alliance.

Once, the Baker Kingdom also sent a special envoy to tell the Alliance that it hoped that the Alliance could release these prisoners, and for this, the Baker Kingdom was willing to pay a lot of ransom.

But Lina asked the alliance to refuse directly and said that the alliance did not leave any prisoners.

reason?

Of course, Lena doesn't believe in Baker's Kingdom.

Besides, is the ransom useful?

What they really need is all kinds of supplies!

If they hope that the Kingdom of Baker could exchange materials for those captured knights and nobles, this would undoubtedly allow the Kingdom of Baker to see through the reality of the alliance. It is impossible for the Kingdom of Baker to withdraw its troops at all, but gritted their teeth and continued to stalemate with the alliance until the alliance collapses without fighting.

But it would be different to hand over these prisoners to the merchants.

As for how the merchants would deal with these captives, it was their own business.

As long as the merchants ship supplies that satisfy the alliance.

Anyway, businessmen will definitely not lose money in this matter, and they can even make a big profit.

You should know that what the merchants gained was not only money, but more importantly, they also gained favors from these knights and nobles.

Lina knew that this war was a desperate battle of the alliance.

She had already shown to those sent to Baker Kingdom.

If the alliance wins, it will surely capture a large number of knights and nobles.

And these knights and nobles are the bargaining chips for the alliance to trade with those merchants.

But if the alliance is defeated.

All bento happens without any incident.

I have to say.

Pressure forces a person to grow up quickly.

And Lina is obviously a distinct example.

no way.

She has carried too many expectations and put too much pressure on herself.

Anyone can fall down, but she can't.

"Brother, I won't let you down again."

When Viviya and the others left.

Lena was left alone.

She suddenly bit her lip and muttered to herself.

In order to maintain the stability of the alliance.

Lina issued a special ban order, and no one who is familiar with the matter is allowed to reveal that the alliance is short of materials and is not enough to support the news of this cold winter. Those who dare to violate the order will be killed without mercy.

At the same time, Lina also assured the leaders of each tribe.

Up to one month.

They can solve the problem of supplies.

Whether it is trust or doubt.

talk.

Lena was placed here.

Now.

Everyone is already tied to a boat.

The boat capsized.

No one can escape.

In the face of anxiety and anticipation of the tribes.

Unexpectedly, about twenty days later.

There were really a carriage carrying a large amount of supplies that drove into the alliance.

"Big sister's head! Big sister's head!"

When the news came.

The leaders of all tribes were relieved and then felt excited.

After all, there are these supplies.

All their tribe members can survive this difficult winter.
