"Set up camp, stay where you are, and be ready to attack at any time."
Although the territory where the Li people live is a desert and not suitable for growing crops, there are tens of thousands of gold mines hidden underground.
As Minister of Military Affairs and commander of the Black Gold Knights, Carroll has always wanted to occupy the territories belonging to the Li people, use the mined gold to develop maritime trade, and plunder the resources of surrounding countries.
However, this resolution was vetoed by both the king and the parliament because the reason for the war was not legitimate enough.
Over the years, the orcs have stayed true to their duties and have not harassed the borders of the Monty Kingdom.
But Carroll doesn't think so. He believes that the continent of Azeroth should not be a peaceful situation where humans and orcs coexist. The orcs should become slaves of humans, driven, enslaved, and trampled under their feet.
If there is no legitimate reason for war, then create a legitimate excuse.
Princess Leia went to Mitchell to inspect the fortifications on behalf of the king. This was an excellent opportunity to cause war trouble.
On the one hand, they can take the opportunity to get rid of the heir to the kingdom, and on the other hand, they can blame the Li tribe for this matter, stirring up hatred between the two tribes, and then start a war to drive out the orcs.
After nightfall completely fell, several of Carroll's cronies took advantage of the dark night and high winds to carry wooden boxes and sneak into the hinterland of the orcs silently.
After leaving the box behind, he hurriedly turned back the way he came.
"There must be something fishy in this box." Chen Feng was about to get out of the grass, but the orcs took the box away first.
In a cave somewhere in the hinterland of the Li tribe, the leader Satan and the elders were busy discussing countermeasures.
"Elders, I have some very unfortunate news to tell you. Just in the evening, 20,000 elite knights from the Monty Kingdom marched outside the Mitchell line of defense with the intention of launching an invasion of our Li territory."
"Chief, don't panic. According to the previous agreement with Monty, his knights are not allowed to cross the Mitchell Line of Defense, let alone enter Li territory."
The elders dug out the treaty signed that year. This was once a humiliating land cession and compensation treaty, which caused the Li people to permanently lose the most fertile plains along the coast.
However, there is a clear stipulation on it, swearing by the honor of the Pope of the Holy Temple and the royal family of Monti, no party shall provoke a war between the two clans unless encountering irresistible reasons.
"Everyone, don't you understand? The so-called treaty is just a one-sided statement by the strong. Whoever has a strong fist can unilaterally tear up the treaty."
"this……"
The elders were at a loss and finally voted unanimously: "Let's wait a little longer. Maybe they are just practicing? Maybe they will withdraw in two days. After all, they have no legitimate reason to start a war."
"Wait? When they put the knife to their necks, will you old fools know how to be afraid?" Satan disagreed.
"Report, leader, brothers on patrol found four strange boxes, which look like human objects."
"Open it and take a look!"
The boxes were opened one by one, and they were filled with corpses. These people were wearing golden battle armor and the exclusive knight emblem of Monty Kingdom.
Among them was a middle-aged bearded man with a Viscount medal hanging on his waist, which symbolized a very high status in the kingdom.
"They are all nobles and generals from the Golden Knights..." Satan covered his head and breathed out: "Did you see? They are throwing dirty water on the Li people. This is their excuse to start a war."
"In order to provoke a war, you actually kill members of your own family? Human beings are really cruel and cold-blooded." The elders all shook their heads and sighed.
"Chief, there is a beautiful woman who seems to be breathing."
The orcs moved the body away and lifted Leia out from the bottom.
"She seems to be wearing the medal of honor of the Monty royal family." Satan carefully checked the medal on her waist and confirmed that she was a member of the royal family. Judging from her face, she was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and she looked like a noble princess.
"If a member of the royal family dies in Li territory, we will certainly not be able to escape the blame." The elders were worried.
If this matter is handled improperly, I am afraid it will lead to the disaster of annihilation, and the anger of the Monty Kingdom will wipe out the Li people.
"If you're afraid of a ball, just go with them! I've wanted to fight Mr. Monty for a long time, to avenge our shame and take back the home that originally belonged to us."
Satan picked up Leah and threw her into the cage, "Go, call all the witches, and save her at all costs. If she dies, all of you will be buried with her."
The orcs organized themselves overnight, digging trenches and setting traps, intending to wait for the Black Gold Knights' attack.
Chen Feng took advantage of the chaos and quietly entered the orc's cave, but he never thought of bumping into Satan.
"Catch this human spy."
The orc guards squeezed into the cave and blocked Chen Feng's retreat with their bodies.
"You all don't come over here, whoever comes over will die first!" Chen Feng drew his gun and fired, but the bullets from the pistol hit the orcs' hard skin, as if they were tickling them, and could not cause any real harm.
It is unimaginable that bullets that can easily break the magic matrix are defeated by flesh and blood.
In the end, Chen Feng was bravely captured and imprisoned in a cage next to Leah.
"Hey, Liya, are you okay?" Chen Feng shook the cage desperately, trying to wake up Liya, but she remained unconscious.
It was not until two hours later that she gradually regained some consciousness. After seeing Chen Feng, Liya subconsciously rubbed her eyes and asked in surprise: "You...are you a human or a ghost?"
"I am blessed with great fortune. Even if I hang on a branch, I will not die."
"It's better if you're not dead. If you're dead, you won't be able to find such an obedient slave." Liya looked at the unfamiliar environment around her and looked at Chen Feng: "Where is this? It feels so eerie."
"If I guessed correctly, this should be the home of the orcs." Chen Feng took off his coat and stuffed it into Leah's body through the gap in the cage.
"Why am I here? I only remember being fed a black pill by a ghost, and then I remained unconscious..."
"Don't think too much. The orcs are busy fighting against the Black Gold Knights right now. They have no time to pay attention to us. When they fight and turn into a mess, we will take the opportunity to escape."
Chen Feng took a brief look around and found that the wooden cage was not very strong and could be broken with a gun or gun.
But now is not the time to escape. If you make too much noise, you will alert others, which will increase the difficulty of escaping.
"Commander Carol is cruel and greedy by nature. He has always wanted to drive the orcs out of Azerothia, but he has no legitimate excuse. Unexpectedly, I became his accomplice this time." Leah recounted.
The major families had different opinions on whether the orcs should be kept or killed. The Monty royal family suggested peaceful coexistence, while the Carroll family suggested exterminating them all. However, more than half of the elders in the council agreed with the king's opinion, and thus the Mitchell Military was born.
dividing line.
The Monty Kingdom and the Li people have lived in peace for ten years without any large-scale war, but now, Carol will definitely use the disappearance of the princess as an excuse to send the knights to cross the Mitchell line of defense to search.
The orcs would definitely reject this unreasonable request.
Then, the war broke out, and Leah naturally became the queen.
