Vashj's words caused all the Nagas to fall into silence.
yes!
Even if they joined together, they could not withstand the breath of the sea dragon. The Kul tribe had two dragon knights and three dragons, while their side had one dragon knight and four dragons.
Although it sounds like their strength is almost the same, a dragon with a knight is much stronger than a dragon without a knight.
When the time comes, the knight will jump off the dragon and join the battlefield below, and it will just be a bloody massacre rather than a war.
Vashj is not that stupid, and neither are the Naga people.
So they could only watch the Kuer people leave, and silently pray that these guys would not suddenly return and destroy their team.
"Brother, those Nagas are clearly the main force right now, so why not..."
Kugel made a gesture of wiping his neck, and the meaning he wanted to express was self-evident.
“No!”
Olch stopped Kugel's movements.
"The fourth dragon knight of our tribe is about to be born. Our combined strength is already enough to crush the Naga tribe. There's no need to create unnecessary complications."
After all, this is still the territory of the Naga tribe, and starting a war here is not an appropriate choice.
"Oh, okay."
Kugel is a bit slow-witted, so he is used to following his second brother's arrangements.
"Let's go. You completed your mission very well this time. I didn't expect you to be quite talented in acting."
Olchi praised Kugel and then ordered the troops to speed up and try to return to the base camp as quickly as possible.
————
And Vashj also returned to her tribe with her people.
"Those above the Six-Armed Naga level will stay, and the rest of you will return to your respective posts."
Under Vashj's command, the Naga people dispersed, leaving only dozens of people present.
"First of all, I admit that we made mistakes during this trip to the grassland, which almost brought our tribe to the brink of extinction.
Although we don't know why Olchi and his men didn't intend to attack us, we at least know that they are about to attack us."
To be honest, Kugel's arrival this time was a bit abrupt.
And before leaving, he left a message, as if he was afraid that they didn't know that the Kuer tribe was going to attack them.
But she remembered that the Kul would carry out a similar warning operation before each genocide, so Vashj was no longer surprised by this matter.
"Immediately send an envoy to the Mermaid Royal Family to ask for help and see if we can get someone from the Royal Family to mediate."
The first thing Vashj did was to call for help. After all, the overall strength of the Naga tribe was not as good as that of the Kul tribe.
"Yes! Your Excellency the High Priest."
An eight-armed Naga performed a strange ceremony and then turned and left the sanctuary.
"Give orders to the tribesmen to waterproof all the food and store it within the tribe's territory. Starting today, the Naga tribe will be on full alert. All weapons and equipment in the warehouses must be distributed, and construction of city defense facilities will begin!"
As orders were issued one after another, the entire Naga tribe began to act in an orderly manner like a high-speed machine.
Looking at this scene, Vashj nodded with satisfaction, and her snake tail swayed subconsciously.
"Very good. It seems that the tribesmen's fighting spirit has not completely disappeared. With a short period of training, they should be able to quickly recover their fighting strength."
In addition to seeking external aid and various war preparations, Vashj also decided to take out all the stored food in the tribe.
She hoped that these foods would allow the tribesmen to eat more during this period and slightly make up for the physical deficit caused by hunger.
After thinking for a long time, Vashj decided to seek help from her human ally Krobo.
By the way, call back Ossus who is stationed on Amethyst Island. After all, the Fantasy Beast Knight is also a high-end combat force in this war. Having one more can increase the chance of winning a little.
If possible, Vashj would like to get help from the human kingdom behind Krobel. It would be even better if they could send out ten or eight dragon knights.
At worst, she can take the Naga people with her to serve as dogs for humans!
As long as the race survives!
Anyway, it’s better than genocide!
So she wrote a personal letter in the common language of mankind and asked her maid to take the letter to the Amethyst Islands for help.
"I hope Krober really considers me an ally."
Vashj prayed silently.
"Even humans have written letters asking for help, so I might as well write one to every race."
Since it concerns the extinction of the race, she had no choice but to hold back.
Vashj, who was familiar, unfamiliar, and even some small races that she didn't have much contact with, wrote a handwritten letter to her personally.
The words were sincere and every sentence was insightful, fully explaining to all ethnic groups the bellicosity and brutality of the Kurds.
————
the next day.
Thanks to the efforts of the Naga messenger, Vashj's letter for help was delivered to the small tribe living in the waters near the middle of the Azure Sea in just one night.
Squid people.
A humanoid creature with six tentacles on its cheeks and distinct squid-like features met with the Naga envoy.
"The Naga tribe declared war on the Kuer tribe? They also want us to send troops to jointly defeat the Kuer tribe?"
This person is the chief of the squid tribe and the only powerful beast knight in the tribe.
The Squid leader held Vashj's handwritten letter in his hand, read it carefully, and asked with a conflicted look.
"Yes, the Kuul have violated the ocean peace laws established by the royal family, so High Priest Vashj has specially invited all tribes to form an alliance to fight against the Kuul."
In the letter for help, Vashj played a political trick she learned from humans.
It is true that you are asking for help, but you cannot say that in the letter.
If she was really so honest, what she said would only push all the tribes to the opposite side of the Naga.
She wouldn't be that stupid.
Although it sounds shameful, bullying the weak and seeking good fortune and avoiding danger are the correct choices a qualified ruler should make.
If these small tribes learned that the Naga tribe had been declared exterminated by the Kuer tribe, I am afraid that the first thing they would do would be to beat the Naga tribe when it is down, and then draw nutrients from the Naga corpses to strengthen their own tribes.
So Vashj played a trick on them.
The request for help was changed to a joint attack on the Kuer tribe, and the ocean peace laws formulated by the royal family - the mermaid tribe were turned into a big hat and put on the Kuer tribe's head.
After all, in theory, the mermaids are still the nominal rulers of the sea people. Although their ruling power is no longer what it used to be, Vashj only needs a reason to gather all the small tribes together.
The first rule of "Theory of Military Strategy" is to hold high the banner of justice, because it will bring you benefits that are invisible to the naked eye.
