Chapter 6: Prelude to the War
An undercurrent surged on the land around the Blue Mountains, and a large number of Turin dwarf nobles were acting fiercely. These people, who were known as the stingiest and richest in the Middle Earth continent, took out a large amount of gold, gems, armor, weapons, and other rare treasures that were difficult to find in the human world. Their value was that the nobles among Dalian humans were extremely moved. The most strange thing was that these Turin dwarfs were neither for food nor for a large amount of life, but for mercenary troops and large numbers of troops.
Middle-earth is a relatively vast world. The distribution of force in this world is mainly occupied by two major enemy camps. One is an alliance camp composed of humans, elves, and dwarves, and the other is a loose camp composed of orcs, goblins, a small number of trolls, and humans who fell into the darkness. The two camps can be said to be hostile to death. However, under normal circumstances, neither camp is interested in staying on the other side's territory, and basically plays their own games. Therefore, generally speaking, in peacetime, the disputes and frictions within each other's camps are even more serious. For example, orcs will not be polite when they see the lonely goblins, and they usually kill and eat them.
Relatively speaking, the alliance of humans, elves and dwarves is much better, at least it is impossible to kill and eat them. However, because of the different ideas and interests of each other, small frictions are constantly occurring. For example, regarding most forests and jungles as their own territory, if there are mountainous areas in these forests and jungles, the dwarves run there to explore, so there may be disputes. In fact, the elves and dwarves in the Middle Earth world are somewhat hostile to each other, and these two tribes are a little disdainful of humans, so the relationship between the three tribes is not as reliable as imagined.
Not only that, except for the elves having endless lifespans, so relatively to a higher level, dwarves and humans have lifespans. They will grow old and die, and they have much more intense desires than elves, such as humans' desire for glory, power, fame, and enjoyment, while dwarves' desire for gold, weapons, gems, and territory. This desire has spawned mercenaries in the Middle Earth, who serve the nobles from all over the world, and then get rewards from these rich people and nobles, and then use these rewards to buy weapons or enjoy them. In fact, when the Lord of the Rings trilogy began, one of the protagonists called the Northern Ranger, whose nature is close to that of mercenaries.
When the dwarf nobles of the Blue Mountains offered a large amount of bounty, the mercenaries from all directions began to gather. Not long after, the subordinates of these dwarf nobles had gathered more than a thousand mercenaries. They were equipped with the most exquisite armor and weapons made by the dwarfs, ate the most fat beef and mutton bought by the dwarfs, drank the expensive spirits transported from the human kingdom, and lived a much better life than the civilians under the rule of these dwarf nobles. Every day, they only needed to brag about their past achievements and get rich rewards from the dwarf nobles than touching the muscles on their arms and scars on their bodies. Such a life was like a god.
However, the dwarf nobles were still not satisfied. They were still waiting for more mercenaries to arrive. At the same time, they even began to contact other dwarf clans, and even sold the interests of the Turin dwarfs, hoping to get help from these dwarf clans. Some dwarf nobles even proposed to contact the human nobles and let them send troops together. However, this suggestion was rejected by most dwarfs because the human nobles were too greedy and greedy, and once they asked for help from them, these dwarf nobles might lose their fortunes, which was not much different from killing them.
Since the last time the dwarves launched their private troops and guards and failed to attack Blue Mountain, this was their second attack. There were nearly 2,000 mercenaries and the last dwarves guards they could launch. It was not that they didn't want to summon more dwarves, but that more dwarves ran to Blue Mountain, because there were rumors that they would share wealth, food and land...those things that should belong to them!
In Blue Mountain, because Chu Hao deliberately did not give them further instructions or orders, and these dwarves subconsciously began to guard against Chu Hao and other humans, the order of the Blue Mountain has actually begun to be restored. After getting enough food, warm clothes, and some gold that everyone can get, these dwarves are actually completely satisfied. Among these dwarves, some knowledgeable and prestigious dwarves have formed a temporary presbyterian church and began to manage the order of the entire central area of the Blue Mountain. Many dwarves have also been assigned to let them go around the Blue Mountain to inherit the legacy of the escaping nobles, whether it is land or the wealth left behind, etc. In fact, this has begun to build a new aristocratic mechanism.
Chu Hao saw all this, but he didn't say anything at all. In fact, even without any words, he could see that these dwarves were guarding against their people. Especially in the past two days, more and more dwarves have begun to overturn the verdicts for the dead nobles. They took the evidence they searched and then began to discuss what dwarves betrayed Thorin, the dwarves were innocent, what dwarves were deceived, and what dwarves might have been implicated, etc. As the topic continues to discuss, it has been extended to Chu Hao's actions, and dwarves have begun to question whether their actions are legal... the laws of the dwarves.
"No one is an idiot, what is good, what is bad, what is good, what is good, what is bad, what is bad, or the same thing, no one is an idiot."
When Chu Hao faced the questions of the rest of the team, he said: "The success of the Earthly Heaven is not accidental or inevitable. When the initial rage ends, both the victim and the beneficiary will begin to reflect. If you rely solely on deception, then when this lie is exposed, both the victim and the beneficiary will hate the Earthly Heaven. Even if most of them are benefited from Earthly Heaven, you can become the beneficiaries of the real free people. Isn't it ironic? But this is the fact, and this can also be found everywhere in history."
At this moment, the members of the Arctic team had been in the Blue Mountains for nearly ten days, and all the team members also saw that the dwarves' thoughts were changing, from the initial fanaticism to the carnival, to the joy and happiness that divided wealth equally. Then, two days later, when the Dwarves Guard of the Blue Mountain defeated a noble private soldier who was ordered to attack the Blue Mountains, these dwarves seemed to recall the deep-seated authority of the nobles and understood fear and fear. At the same time, they began to reflect on everything they had done before and began to rehabilitate these dwarves nobles. At the same time, they became increasingly alienated from Chu Hao and others. In fact, everyone had already discovered traces of vagueness, and they seemed to be supervised by the Dwarves Guard.
Several newcomers in the Arctic were still a little angry because it was up to them that these dwarf civilians could live so well now, but their actions were obviously intended to use Chu Hao and them as scapegoats, either reconcile with the nobles, or push them out to conquer the crime, these ungrateful guys.
However, Chu Hao was not moved at all. As the captain and wise man of the Arctic Continent, his actions were extremely strange. To put it simply, he did not move at all. He allowed these dwarves to begin to reflect, rehabilitate, supervise, and even communicate with the nobles in the dark. In short, he seemed to completely accept his fate, while the old people in the Arctic Continent who were familiar with him completely trusted him and allowed him to make decisions.
Finally, on the tenth day, when the supervision of the dwarf had become very direct and obvious, Ochi couldn't help asking: "Chu Hao, what are you planning to make arrangements? Apart from the beginning of the earthly paradise, you have no action now. I can't tell what arrangements you are setting up? What does your Chu family killing method mean?"
Chu Hao showed a look of not being too anxious. He walked to the window and looked out. Seeing that there were many dwarf guards patrolling there, and leaving the center of the Blue Mountain with weapons and heading towards the remoteness of the Blue Mountains, he turned his head and smiled and said, "Has my plan been laid out long ago? In fact, wise men, layout and strategy are not as complicated as you think. It is impossible to make temporary changes based on any changes in the middle. Most layouts are arranged from the beginning, and after the layout begins, there is almost no need to do anything. Just follow the arrangement at the beginning. My layout is actually very simple, just the Chu killing method, which is also my most proud military strategy. At present, the layout is almost over."
The rest of the people seemed to understand, and Chu Hao stopped talking. His consciousness had already thought of going elsewhere, on the battlefield where the flames were boiling...
While Chu Hao and others were having a conversation, the human mercenaries hired by the dwarf nobles had already stepped onto the land of the Blue Mountain. Starting from the periphery of the Blue Mountain, according to the orders of the dwarf nobles, they killed all the civilians who held the gold, food, and the land and heritage of the dwarf nobles. Only those dwarfs who were still dressed in rags could survive. Almost all such dwarfs rushed to the Blue Mountain. The dwarf poor and civilians in the Blue Mountain had already passed the equal wealth, so they were all hunting. In this way... The army was full of ruins, and the corpses of the dwarf were piled up like mountains, leaving only the ruins with blood and fire...
The nobles should not be captured. Anyone who robs the nobles, who own the wealth, land, and inheritance of the nobles are all eliminated. Of course, they do not know that there are only a very small number of dwarves who actually participated in the riot. Most of them just got a share of the wealth of equal share, and such a number of dwarves... are almost all dwarves in the current Blue Mountains!
The killing is in progress, and the center of Blue Mountain is filled with panic...
Chu Hao looked out from the window of the room, his eyes were indifferent and clear. These dwarves would soon know... The so-called class enemies are the most ruthless and decisive enemies. They have no way to escape and they cannot compromise unless they choose to self-destruct.
