Reggie ate half of the Fire Fruit, and the tent immediately exploded.
"Sir, why are you doing this?"
"I know the war is difficult, but we have not lost hope of winning!"
"The treacherous Asalon, the shameless werewolf, I will cut them into pieces!"
"Go find Camilla quickly! Lord Lord's face is already bloodshot!"
Reggie squatted on the ground and coughed for a while, then stood up and said in his native language: "It tastes so damn good!"
"Hold him down first and don't let him move!" Hurley shouted, "I'm going to find him some milk. Milk can suppress the pain!"
Iron Skull quickly held down Reggie, Hurley quickly found milk, and Camilla also rushed over. Looking at the fruits in the bag, she really didn’t know where to expel the toxins. These things seemed to be like fire.
It doesn't matter.
"Poison of unknown origin, I will send you to the Borderlands. This is your fate. I will drive you away..."
Reggie couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "That's enough! Get out of my way!"
He hugged the bag of fire fruits with excitement, and tears of excitement kept falling from his cheeks.
"How many did you buy?"
"Sixty pounds," Hurley answered, "that's all the shepherd has."
"Is there anyone else?"
"Maybe a little more, but this thing is not cheap. It costs four silver coins per pound."
"Buy them all, buy as much as you want!" Reggie shouted excitedly, "This is a top-quality variety. Even though it is still green now, it will soon turn red. Smell this delicious smell and taste it.
Tasting the fiery taste, I really didn’t expect such good chili peppers to exist in this era.”
Everyone thought Reggie was crazy, and Camilla shouted to Hurley: "Throw this thing out."
Hurley just picked up his pocket when he saw Reggie pull out his musket: "Put the things down, put them down immediately!"
Hurley obediently put down his pocket, and Reggie looked at everyone fiercely.
"No one is allowed to touch my peppers, otherwise don't blame me for being cruel! And you!" Reggie yelled at Hurley, "Go to the shepherd and buy all his fruits. Don't forget to buy more."
Seeds, no matter what the price, you have to buy them!”
…
After half a month of preparations, Asalon was ready to launch his first crusade against the Black Wolf King. He gathered 8,000 cavalry and 23,000 infantry from the eight wolf kings. According to Asalon's estimate,
, such a huge force is enough to scare the Black Wolf King, but out of safety, he still wants Reggie to lead the troops to fight together.
Reggie readily accepted his invitation, but the prerequisite was that he must pay Reggie a corresponding reward. No gold coins or food, Reggie only wanted land, and it must be cashed in person, and no credit was accepted.
Cashing it in person? How is this possible? In the eyes of the Werewolf, a business that cannot be repudiated has no value. Not giving them a chance to repudiate is tantamount to hurting their feelings.
Asalon decisively rejected Reggie's request. He still said that the werewolf issue should be resolved by the werewolf themselves.
After the army set off, Asalon quickly received news from spies. The Black Wolf King was busy holding a coming-of-age ceremony for his "son" in Fengxiao City, and knew almost nothing about the war on the border.
This is an excellent opportunity. Asalon carefully calculated every step of the war. From Sirius City to Fengxiao City, it would take ten days according to the infantry's marching speed, and his food reserves were only eight days. During the war,
During this period, he must replenish food once.
Reggie Victor could not count on it, and their food would definitely have to be exchanged for land. Asalon aimed at the Black Wolf King's great lord Turundu, who was the richest great lord under the Black Wolf King.
In the autumn of last year, he exchanged livestock for a large amount of grain, which was said to be enough to feed his people for three years.
Of course, Turundu is not that easy to deal with. On the grassland, only the strong have the capital to defend wealth. Turundu has three thousand strong cavalry. These cavalrymen are as good as the herdsmen who serve the army during war and serve the people in leisure time.
The big difference is that they are real professional soldiers who can fight against enemies several times larger.
Asalon was a little worried about this battle, but the Scarface Wolf King dispelled his worries.
"Tulun Dukon has a good army, but he is a coward. We only need to win one battle to scare his courage and make him obey our orders."
Of course, Asalon was sure of winning the battle. After testing it with Turundu a few times, he formulated corresponding tactics.
He asked a group of infantry to quietly march westward with carriages, and sent a group of cavalry to constantly harass Turundu's camp.
This is a commonly used tactic on the grassland. Letting the grain and grass baggage take the lead can effectively prevent the supply from being disconnected. Using cavalry to interfere with the enemy's line of sight can prevent the baggage troops from being surprised.
Turundu was also very familiar with such tactics. He found traces of the baggage troops, and looking at the deep ruts, he could conclude that this troop had brought all of Asalon's belongings.
Turundu naturally would not give up such a great opportunity. He sent a thousand cavalry to attack the baggage force. However, when his cavalry surrounded the opponent's carriage, he realized that these carriages were not filled with food and grass, but black and white.
Rice dumplings.
The soldiers of the baggage troops ignited the black powder, and the cavalry who suffered heavy losses fell into panic. They were soon besieged by Asalon, and a thousand cavalry were almost wiped out.
As the Scarface Wolf King expected, Turundu was very fragile. This tragic defeat made him completely lose confidence. When Asaron came to his camp with his army, Turundu even gave up the opportunity to escape.
Kneel down directly to Asalon and beg for surrender.
"Tulundu will always be loyal to the king of the werewolves, and everything Tulundu owns belongs to the great Asalon."
The Red Wolf King suggested that Asalon kill Turundu and divide his land and property, but Asalon refused.
"The king is tolerant and tells the people on this grassland that as long as they are willing to submit to me, I will never forget their mistakes."
At Turundu's call, in just three days, Asalon had 5,000 more soldiers, 2,000 as Turundu's cavalry, and 3,000 as shepherds in Turundu's territory.
These five thousand soldiers became the king's direct troops and became Asalon's first army in his life.
In the next few days, nearly 10,000 people defected to Asaron one after another. This also made the number of his direct troops exceed that of the Gray Wolf King, making him truly the leader of the werewolves.
Seeing the Wolf King and the lords under the tent bowing down and paying homage to their king with the highest etiquette, Asalon felt that his hands could touch the sky at any time.
This is the king's appeal, this is the power from blood. Under the leadership of the king, the werewolves are invincible!
"Stupid Reggie Victor, maybe I should thank you, maybe I should give you some livestock, at least two sheep, but who told you to be so greedy? After I get rid of the Black Wolf King, what will happen next?
