Although Rexxar and others have temporarily left Rolling Rock Canyon, and Prell has less than 10 friends with him, he is very safe here, and the kobolds have no intention of resisting at all.
There was a big mountain giant like Koluzik following him. Every kobold who saw him admired him and looked at him from a distance with fear. With the huge difference in body size, Koluzik brought more than just a visual difference.
Impact and shock, including strong deterrence.
For this reason, Prell once said to Snu with some heartache: "You see, we kobolds are always like this, we don't even have the desire to resist!" Snu did not hear the self-deprecation in it, but took it seriously.
Said: "Why are they resisting? Are we exploiting them?"
Prelton was at a loss for words. Indeed, kobolds are a race that is very resistant to stress. Even if it threatens their lives, they will probably just disperse and never think about fighting.
So Prell no longer had any evaluation of the kobold group. He once again adjusted his mentality and continued various reforms in Rolling Rock Canyon.
A few days later, Falcon Spire brought back a letter written by Rexxar. The letter was written in orc script. Prell did not receive a literacy education, but the system gave him the "language proficiency" ability.
, allowing him to understand and understand the language and writing of any intelligent race.
In the letter brought back by Spire, Rexxar told Prell that in order to show sufficient attention, the Apalaye camp sent a tauren return group headed by Magatha. Horrible Totem to prepare for a discussion between the two forces.
Conduct in-depth negotiations on alliances, or alliances.
Seeing that Magatha Grimtotem was personally leading the team, Prell was full of admiration for this old female tauren shaman.
This is the one with the most political ability among all the intelligent races he has seen. Prell even thinks that Magatha has more political ability than Cairn Bloodhoof, the tauren chief.
A tauren represents a minority of racial chauvinists. They package themselves as moderates and introduce young radicals into the elders as a helping hand. They can also win the trust of the chief and become the scattered members of the entire tauren group.
The powerful representative of one of the four pieces, this female shaman is really not simple.
Moreover, she was able to suppress her hatred towards other intelligent races other than the tauren race, and was willing to put aside her dignity to negotiate with Prell in person. This forbearance made Preel admire her and at the same time be more wary of her.
Heart.
The Rolling Rock Canyon has not changed much, except for a group of kobold miners who were originally patrols and turned into garrison. Under the supervision of Huerta, they are practicing their combat skills, and for the first time, the patrol path has been extended to the mouth of the canyon.
the east side of.
Prell met Magatha and his party in the valley at the foot of the hillside in front of the tall mine. Because he had been notified in advance by Rexxar, Prell simply ordered the kobolds to temporarily build a row of logs in the valley.
Anyway, the supplies are limited and the conditions are simple. Prell doesn't care about the face of the so-called kobold chief.
Magatha saluted Prell respectfully, her eyes a little complicated. The inconspicuous kobold in front of her was a small soldier captain of the tauren army a year ago. The sudden change in status made her
Some trance.
Rexxar and Belga had already discussed the major matters that needed to be discussed with the tauren elders of the Apalaye camp headed by Magatha on behalf of Prell, and Magatha came this time and gave a formal reply.
.
First of all, the news about the formal establishment of the Kingdom of Thresh put forward by Prell was recognized and supported by Magatha. This news was too sudden. After Rexxar and other envoys arrived in Malacajin Valley, Magatha immediately sent
I found the Druid of the Raptor and reported to Cairne Bloodhoof.
Therefore, when she came this time, she was actually authorized by Kane... Bloodhoof. As the tauren warchief and the representative of the entire race, she recognized the existence of the Kingdom of Thresh.
Moreover, Magatha also expressed his willingness to form an alliance with the new country of kobolds to jointly deal with all possible enemies.
Since Prell only relied on more than 10 partners to seize power, the overall strength of the kobolds was not valued by the tauren. The elders even felt that forming an alliance with the kobold forces was a drag.
But there was another condition offered by Prell that the elders could not refuse, that is, the Kingdom of Thresh was willing to provide the Tauren race with unlimited amounts of various ore raw materials.
Since being forced to leave the Desolate Land, the Tauren's main source of ore raw materials has been the occasional exchange with Rolling Rock Canyon. However, in the two strongholds in the Stonetalon Mountains, the Tauren tribe has not yet completely settled down, and they are seriously lacking in supplies.
There is also a lack of enough chips that can be exchanged with the original Rolling Rock Canyon kobolds.
The trade terms proposed by Prell are that he is willing to use various ores produced in Rolling Rock Canyon to exchange with the tauren for various materials they can provide. As for the intermediate equivalent of the exchange, it will be calculated in goblin currency, and both parties will jointly evaluate each other.
Provide a price for the materials that both parties are willing and able to accept.
Although they are nomads, tauren blacksmiths are also famous in the continent of Kalimdor. After all, apart from the night elves in the north, there is no other race in the continent of Kalimdor that has such systematic crafting technology.
The tauren in the Stonetalon Mountains lack everything. From the perspective of war preparation, their demand for various ores, especially iron ore, is huge.
Now Prell has taken the initiative to relax the terms of trade. For the Tauren, this is a good thing, and it is also a tempting offer that they cannot easily refuse.
Therefore, when he came this time, Magatha actually wanted to discuss more specific details with Prell. Both of them knew that if there were no gold coins, then food would be the best equivalent exchange.
But Prell also knew that the tauren themselves were living a tight life, and the two consecutive wars with the centaurs last year also consumed a huge amount of materials, so he did not propose the need to exchange food.
The self-brewed fruit wine and leather produced by the tauren are currently the most suitable exchange materials that the Apalaye camp, or the entire Stonetalon Mountains tauren force, can come up with, but Prell put forward a condition:
It is hoped that the tauren will pay in human form.
Rolling Rock Canyon, where the Kingdom of Thresh is located, now needs a group of knowledgeable and talented people to teach the kobolds who know nothing but mining.
For example, Prell needs more tauren recruit instructors to teach the kobold soldiers in the garrison he established various tactics and combat skills. After all, relying only on Herta's one ox, he would be too exhausted to teach so many soldiers.
And Prell put forward another condition, hoping that the two parties would jointly open a blacksmith shop and smelting site in Rolling Rock Canyon, which would facilitate the transportation of raw materials and save a lot of expenses, and the Tauren blacksmiths could choose some of them.
Kobolds serve as apprentices and assistants.
Prell's intention is to hope that kobolds can also train blacksmiths. After all, a race that is good at mining has almost no smelting or forging skills, which is really unreasonable.
In order not to let Magasa think too much, he even proposed that the Kingdom of Thresh would provide some free ore for this newly established joint iron shop. The only requirement was that the sent tauren blacksmiths could tailor the kobolds.
Craft a collection of weapons and armor.
Magatha, who originally wanted to bargain, thought carefully for a long time and felt that the tauren would not suffer in this way. The only thing they needed to worry about was the leakage of blacksmithing skills.
But considering that weapons are also war materials that the tauren urgently need, the outflow of technology is almost nothing in comparison. So the old female shaman agreed.
The two sides have been arguing for a long time about the scale of the iron shop jointly opened by both parties. Prell hopes to get it done at once, but Magatha prefers to send out a small number of tauren blacksmiths first, and then consider whether to expand the scale based on the subsequent situation.
In the end, Prell compromised. Magatha was a stubborn tauren and she insisted on her opinion no matter what, which made Prell very depressed.
In the end, they reached a small food trade agreement. Of course, the food provided by the tauren was mainly grown under the guidance of the Sunstone Druids. This batch of food was mainly to satisfy the tauren blacksmiths and some tauren who would be stationed in the future.
The consumption of human soldiers.
Of course, Prell's request for the tauren to send instructors was resolved by Magatha in the name of protecting the iron shop industry and sending tauren soldiers.
This negotiation lasted from morning to night. A bonfire was set up in the valley. The tauren followers, who were full of novelties, and the obedient kobolds gathered together, trying to achieve a rare large-scale contact between the two races.
and communication.
Magatha looked at Prell, putting aside those prejudices. She admired the kobold chief in front of her, who was somewhat ugly even by the tauren's aesthetics, because she found that Preel was similar to her in a sense.
It's a type of person.
They all act resolutely for a certain purpose, and they all value the result rather than the process. Therefore, in this process, in order to achieve the goal, they can temporarily abandon their principles and do things full of pragmatism.
Dealing with a practical person is always smooth, because the other person will not care about individual small problems and conflicts.
So Magatha elegantly finished a plate of wild fruits. She was a staunch vegetarian. Seeing Prell holding a glass of wild fruit wine brewed by the tauren women, she smiled and said: "We
How is the tauren's brewing skills, my dear chief!"
Prell laughed: "Dear elder, once you use the honorific title, I know you have something important to say. I always like to get straight to the point, just say it directly! I like this kind of sweet and sour speech very much.
Drinks!"
Magatha also laughed, and she pointed to the east with her staff: "You have always wanted to deal with the goblins in the Gale Valley, but to be honest, even if you established a kingdom in the Rolling Rock Canyon, relying solely on the kobolds is not enough.
Might be able to deal with the venture capital firm!"
Prell said with a smile: "The venture capital companies in Storm Valley are a cancer on the continent of Kalimdor. They are not only my enemies, but also the common enemies of all indigenous races. If it weren't for those goblins who have their eyes on money,
The tauren don't go around making enemies either.
I think the raptor druids of the tauren should have never given up on the investigation of the Wind Valley. Let me analyze the surrounding situation for you based on my personal understanding. The Cenarion Circle in Desolace has a strong presence, about Cenarion
Remulos, the son of Si, wants to purify Maraudon and save the soul of his brother, Zaltar, the husband of Princess Theradras.
And I heard that the Kokal, Garak United Clan and the Magram Clan are at war. The goblins have already tasted the sweetness of the arms trade, and they will definitely not be satisfied. Instead, they will continue to fight against the three centaur clans.
Forces continue to sell weapons.
Sun Stone Dwelling cannot always block the canyon into the Cinder Valley, and you are probably happy to see the internal strife between the centaurs. But don't forget that the main bodies of the Kokar and Garak clans are distributed in the Barrens and Thousand Needles.
If the goblins continue to collude with them and have more weapons, do you think the centaurs in the Barrens will continue to attack the Stonetalon Mountains, or turn their heads south?"
