Green Monster Epic

"Your Excellency, your request is a bit much."

Allen didn't want to be too harsh, so he changed his approach to advocate for the Northern Territory: "Over the years, the six tribes of the Northern Territory have actually suffered unfair treatment from the Alliance. Now, seeking assistance from the Alliance is in accordance with the Alliance's charter."

"The Alliance can't continue to support the South while ignoring the threats and losses in our Northern Territory, otherwise..."

"I bear a great responsibility in this regard, failing to treat all regions equally. Although there are many reasons for this, I don't want to argue."

"It's just that in the past two hundred years, the Wilderness has successively encountered the Demon Tide, the invasion of the Nine Domain Lords, and two civilization wars on the continents of Tallen and Hillen. The various tribes have long been complaining about the Alliance's reinforcements time and time again. This is an undeniable fact."

"Compared to the humans in the South, the overall strength of the elves in the North is still somewhat lacking. And their opponent, the Dwarf Kingdom, excels at defense, and the geographical environment is mostly easy to defend and difficult to attack. Now, with the Hozia Federation and the Thorns Ring led by you, at least in my opinion, the situation in the Northern Territory is far better than in the South."

"The Wilderness can't always be led by the nose by humans and elves. This time, the centaur's three royal courts, with my support, counterattacked the Rose Principality and the Dawn Empire's expeditionary forces, which was our test of human civilization."

"The result seems to be successful, indicating that humans are not as powerful as they appear, and that our Wilderness is not just a foil for repeated wars."

"So, I plan to take advantage of this opportunity when human civilization is greatly impacted and internally unstable to reorganize the Allied forces in the Alliance and launch a decisive battle against humans from the west. We must ensure that humans dare not launch another civilization war for hundreds of years."

"However, in this case, support for the Northern Territory will inevitably be insufficient, because you and I both know very well that with the Mansa Alliance's members being scattered and selfish, and limited by their own strength, there is simply no way to balance a two-front war in the North and South."

Since Allen's strength is now comparable to his own, and a hobgoblin who single-handedly pulled a weak tribe to its current state has proven his ability with facts, Davinci no longer hides anything from him and directly reveals his plans frankly.

"Your Excellency..."

Allen didn't expect that the kobold saint, who had only recently become close to him, would suddenly change the subject and reveal such a plan to him. For a moment, he was somewhat slow to react and didn't know what to say.

"Under your leadership, the Northern Territory already has a self-contained appearance. Perhaps it won't be long before you can substantially merge into a whole."

"I am very optimistic about your methods. At the same time, in my heart, I actually support your behavior. If you want to contend with a powerful civilization on the border, the weak only have a chance to survive by sticking together."

"But with the bad habits of the Wilderness tribe leaders, they will not willingly give up their power in the tribe. You can make the six tribes of the Northern Territory obediently listen to your arrangements. This alone is enough to make me feel ashamed!"

"If I had your methods back then, the Mansa Alliance wouldn't be what it is now!"

Davinci looked complicated and sighed sincerely.

"With you sitting in the Northern Territory, coupled with the repeated defeats of the elves, resulting in heavy losses, the elves probably won't pose a threat to the Northern Territory in the short term. That's why I made this request."

"Think carefully, which is more important, the support of me and the forces behind me, or the Alliance's support!"

"..."

Allen was speechless for a moment. Naturally, he was very clear about the pros and cons, but he didn't expect that Davinci's support for him for so long was only for this one request.

"Of course, this is just one request. There is another one that can only be discussed in depth after you agree to my previous condition."

However, soon, Davinci threw out another sentence, which cleared up Allen's doubts.

"...Your Excellency, please speak!"

A resolute look flashed in Allen's eyes, and he made a decision in his heart.

"After your competition is over, I will ask the Alliance to convene a temporary meeting to discuss the next plan for sending troops. At that time, I need your entire Thorns Ring to keep pace with me! !"

"..."

"At the same time, I also need to draw an elite force from your northern army to go south and serve as the backbone of my Alliance's southern legions."

"..."

Allen knew that if he wanted to get the support of this old kobold, the price would definitely not be small. At this time, as Davinci put forward his conditions, each request made Allen feel a little heartache.

Especially the last condition, to take away a force from the army that had been honed with great difficulty through several major battles. No matter the specific number, it would be a serious loss for the Northern Territory.

Allen didn't know how to explain to the other tribal leaders in the Northern Territory after agreeing to the other party's condition. After all, the most important reason why everyone can unite around him now is because of their interests.

Allen can fight for their interests in the Alliance, lead everyone to a better life, and fairly and justly make decisions for everyone. This is the important factor that maintains the current unity of the Thorns Ring.

But if Allen suddenly changed his style of doing things at this time and no longer fought with the Alliance for the interests of the Northern Territory, who can guarantee that the other tribes in the Northern Territory would not harbor resentment in their hearts?

Over time, the good situation that he had painstakingly built up would probably fall apart again!

However, weighing the two options, although agreeing to Davinci at this time would bring some hidden worries to his base, after all, he had been operating for a long time and had the strength of a saint-level figure there. It was just that this time, he damaged the short-term interests of the Northern Territory, but it would not cause much of a problem.

The support from the Pale Night camp can make the temple more cautious and prevent them from being too blatant when targeting the Green Field and Allen. It can also stabilize the support attitude of the centaur branch.

At the same time, what Davinci is doing is inherently very beneficial to the Wilderness. If he can really take advantage of the fact that the humans are panicking and their strength is weakened to launch a war in the east and west directions with the orcs, it will always be able to narrow the gap between them and the humans, and there will be a greater chance of victory.

"Okay!"

Allen finally nodded heavily: "I only have one condition: from now on, my Northern Territory will no longer accept the Alliance's conscription, including the army you take away this time, and it cannot be soldiers from my Northern Territory."

"Agreed!"

Davinci stroked his snow-white beard on his chin, and his wrinkled old face was full of brilliance.
