Chapter 608 The Smell Of Conspiracy
Chapter 608 The Smell Of Conspiracy
In the middle of the night, when Chen Tao was sleeping with the beauty in his arms, he was suddenly awakened by a loud and vibrating sound.
Although the sound was a bit messy, Chen Tao could tell that it was the footsteps of a large army gathering.
According to the report from the basketball girl who is in charge of sentry duty, something seems to have happened in the city, and manpower is being gathered now.
The official residence of the leader of the Shenlei Tribe was not far from the palace. Chen Tao, who was woken up, thought he had nothing to do and wanted to go over and have a look.
When I went out, there were many kobolds praying devoutly outside the door. The road in front of the palace gate was densely packed with kobolds in various postures.
After seeing humans appear, these kobolds suddenly became even crazier.
For a time, there was an endless flow of kowtows and prayers in various styles.
Chen Tao didn't bother much here and asked the soldiers to take him to the place where the troops gathered in the city.
Because the palace is located at the highest point in the city, you can clearly see countless torches gathering toward you in the night city.
Chen Tao's first reaction at this situation was that these cunning kobolds wanted to take advantage of others and kill themselves to silence them.
But this idea was immediately rejected, because although dogs usually look like harmless waste to humans and animals, their hunting skills are written in their genes. It obviously doesn't make sense to do so in such a big way.
Because anyone with any brains knows that to fight against gangsters, you still have to shoot and work secretly.
When Chen Tao walked to the chief's residence, Bulu and Atuo were all there, but High Priest Sal was not there.
During the meal during the day, Atuo introduced that Sal would not normally participate in the affairs and military affairs of the tribe. First, he was older, but he felt that everyone was doing a good job and there was no room for him to interfere.
A Tuo came up to him immediately after seeing Chen Tao coming.
Then under Chen Tao's inquiry, he briefly told Chen Tao the current situation.
Probably the three dependent tribes were attacked by the Qingfeng, Chiyan and Houpi tribes at the same time tonight.
And it was said that the troops sent by the three major tribes tonight were enough to wipe out the three dependent tribes in one fell swoop. Fortunately, the warriors of the three small tribes were very brave and temporarily resisted the enemy's attack.
As soon as they got the news, Blue and Atuo were ready to assemble their troops for rescue.
This boss of the three tribes did not recognize him in vain, and he is really up to the task.
While sighing in his heart, Chen Tao smelled a hint of conspiracy.
Three large tribes attacked three small tribes that were attached to the Shenlei tribe at the same time. Chen Tao didn't believe it at all that they had no premeditation.
And during the day, Blue had just said that even if three big tribes attacked the Thunder Tribe at the same time, they could withstand it.
However, the intelligence that came through tonight said that the three major tribes' military strength tonight could wipe out the three dependent tribes in one fell swoop, but it also said that the three small tribes were temporarily able to withstand the attack.
In Chen Tao's understanding, the party that takes the lead in such a large-scale conflict between races will definitely annihilate the target in one fell swoop when it has an absolute advantage to prevent long nights and dreams.
Moreover, the intelligence said that judging from the number of enemies, the other party was definitely aiming to completely wipe out the three small tribes.
This information is obviously contradictory in Chen Tao's eyes. It is very unreasonable to expect temporary resistance in the case of absolute numerical superiority or sudden attack.
If one of the three tribes is like this, it might make sense, but if all three are like this, there is definitely something fishy.
It smells like conspiracy.
After thinking about this, Chen Tao pulled Blue and Atuo aside, and then told them his thoughts as quickly as possible.
After hearing this, the two of them looked shocked at first, and then fell into deep thought.
"Then what do human beings think the real purpose of Qingfeng, Chiyan and the thick-skinned tribe is?"
An old voice came from behind Blue and Atuo. It turned out that after Sal learned that Chen Tao had come to the chief's mansion, he immediately rushed over from the temple where he lived, and happened to hear the information Chen Tao analyzed for the two.
Chen Tao said with a calm face: "If my guess is correct, their real purpose should be the city we are standing under."
"But even if the three big tribes put all their soldiers together, they are no match for us, not to mention that they have divided their forces into three groups..."
It was Atuo who spoke, and his tone was filled with clear stupidity and disbelief. As a result, before he could finish speaking, he received a cane on the head. In fact, Golden Retriever Blue also had an expression of disbelief on his face, but Ta didn't express it directly, so he was lucky to escape the stick of love this time.
The one who knocked Atuo was naturally Old Sal. After it finished knocking, it immediately pressed Atuo's head and apologized to Chen Tao: "Dear human beings, please forgive this silly boy's recklessness."
Chen Tao waved his hand and said that he didn't care. Judging from their age, Atuo and Blu were in the early middle age of human beings in their previous lives. They were at the age when they were in the prime of life and were full of self-confidence. In addition, they were the chief and deputy chiefs of the tribe, the Shenlei Tribe. Few kobolds among them dared to question their authority, so their self-confidence was further strengthened.
If self-confidence is too blind, it will blind your eyes and turn into stubbornness and stubbornness.
"If my guess is correct, they should have found foreign aid, and it is a very powerful foreign aid. It is powerful enough to give the three major tribes the illusion that they can wipe out the Shen Lei Tribe in one fell swoop. This time, let them risk a complete confrontation with the Shen Lei Tribe. The consequence of the quarrel is that it will act as bait to hold back most of your troops, and then that mysterious foreign aid will take the opportunity to make a sneak attack..."
Chen Tao still had a calm look on his face.
"this..."
Sal, Blue, and Ato lost expression management at the same time, and they thought of one thing at the same time.
One month before Chen Tao came over, some orcs that they had never seen before appeared near the city. After they inquired around, they sent envoys to contact the Shenlei tribe. The general meaning is that I am also very powerful, and now you are not bad either. So I am ready to join forces with you to defeat other tribes and enslave them.
This was of course flatly rejected by the Shenlei Tribe, because there were one million people in the Shenlei Tribe, about 10% of whom were professional soldiers, which was about one hundred thousand.
All the rest are civilians, who are engaged in various productions, farming or handicrafts, and the products they produce are used to support the army or trade with other tribes.
Everyone in the tribe can participate in production and construction of the tribe, and no other redundant labor force can be inserted. Moreover, the Shenlei tribe has a book that has been passed down from generation to generation. The book was naturally given by humans, named It's called "On War, Invasion and Slavery."
Many of the disadvantages of slavery are listed above. It is said that slavery is most likely to breed corruption, which can internally corrode and destroy a powerful regime.
The leaders of the Thunder God Tribe have studied this book for generations, and then concluded a development path that belongs to and is suitable for their own tribe.
