"Chieftain!"
Kro quickly wiped the smile off his face and bowed respectfully to Corvinus.
"Is this for me?"
"Yes, Chieftain!"
"Speak directly!"
"Well, Chieftain, the messenger we sent to the Liewa tribe has returned. Not only did Liewa Chieftain choose to abandon the attack on our Silvermane Tribe, but he also chose to submit to us directly!"
Kro said excitedly.
"Submit to us directly? Is this true?"
Corvinus was taken aback by the news.
He had left the matter of the tribal alliance entirely to Kro and Baggin, as they were only dealing with a few small tribes.
He trusted that Kro and Baggin could handle it.
He didn't expect that the Liewa tribe would choose to submit so easily.
"Karl, my deputy captain, was the one who managed to convince Liewa Chieftain to submit to us," Kro said, very pleased with himself.
Karl was his confidant, so he was eager to take credit for his man's work.
"Well done!"
"Since the Liewa tribe has chosen to submit, I will inform Uncle Lothar tomorrow and arrange for the reception of the Liewa tribe's people."
Corvinus nodded.
He had not anticipated that the Liewa tribe would submit so readily.
He had thought Kro and Baggin would find a way to dismantle the alliance of Liewa and the other tribes and then defeat them one by one.
He didn't expect that before the "four powers" could fully unite, one had already backed down.
However, this was not what pleased him the most.
What pleased him the most was that the tribe would soon gain nearly four hundred new members, which would alleviate the labor shortage in the tribe.
"Chieftain, we can't receive the Liewa tribe just yet!" Kro quickly shook his head.
"Why not?"
"Chieftain, the submission of the Liewa tribe is still a secret. Karl has already instructed Liewa Chieftain to keep it confidential, so the other three tribes, and even the Luochuan tribe, are unaware of this matter."
"So, we believe we should let them continue to form an alliance and attack our tribe, and then at the critical moment, have Liewa Chieftain turn against them, completely destroying the coalition."
"Once the coalition is destroyed, our tribe can swiftly send people to take over the other three tribes."
Kro explained his plan.
"Good!"
"If this succeeds, whether it's you or Karl, I will record a great merit for you," Corvinus clapped his hands.
It had to be said that using Liewa tribe's betrayal to strike at the coalition was an extremely clever plan.
With this operation, it might indeed be possible to annex all four small tribes at once.
Although they were small tribes, they had over a thousand people. If these werewolves joined the tribe, the strength of the Silvermane Tribe would definitely soar significantly.
Moreover, the most important thing was the large amount of labor, which would further his farming plans.
...
Time flew by, and almost a week had passed.
The Silvermane Tribe continued as usual, clearing land and farming.
As for the animal pens, although it hadn't been many days, nearly ten breeding pits had been completed at an extremely fast pace.
There was no other way; Kordiak dared not slack off at all because Corvinus, the chieftain, visited the animal pens almost every day.
Although it was just to chat about daily life.
However, in his ears, every word from Corvinus was: speed up, speed up, speed up...
Thanks to the chieftain's supervision, Kordiak did not dare to slow down, so the progress was very fast.
In addition to the animal pens, where Corvinus was a regular visitor, the military camp, especially the cavalry training ground, was also a place where Corvinus frequently went.
Thanks to Corvinus's suggestion to use wooden curved swords for training, the combat effectiveness of the wolf cavalry was improving every day.
However, whether it's a mule or a horse, it has to be tested in action; training alone is not enough to achieve results.
But for both Corvinus and Kardia, any improvement in the cavalry training was progress.
...
Black Road Tribe.
The Black Road Tribe was slightly stronger than the Liewa Tribe, of course, only by a little, with just a hundred or two more people, not by much.
In the Black Road Tribe's council hall.
There were six or seven wolves of different ages sitting in their respective seats, and at first glance, not all of them were from the Black Road Tribe.
"Ge Ye, when is the big shot from Luochuan coming? This is too much, we've been waiting for almost two hours," an aged wolf asked a middle-aged wolf impatiently.
"Sam Chieftain, why the rush? Are you not willing to wait for the big shot from Luochuan? Does that mean your Sam Tribe is not short of food?"
"Sam Chieftain snorted coldly.
"If it weren't for the shortage of food in my tribe, who would be willing to waste time here with you?"
At this moment, the chieftain of the Kela Tribe also spoke up: "Black Road Chieftain, although it's for food, we are also in an equal trade, no one owes anyone. The big shot from Luochuan..."
Just as Chieftain Kela was expressing his dissatisfaction, a wolf soldier ran in and whispered something into Black Road Chieftain's ear.
It was only after the wolf soldier arrived that Black Road Chieftain stood up and said with a smile: "Alright, everyone, stop complaining. The big shot from Luochuan has arrived."
As soon as Black Road Chieftain finished speaking, a man entered through the door.
Fifth-tier warrior!
Everyone in the room's expression became serious. The big shot from Luochuan was a fifth-tier warrior, which showed that Luochuan was very serious about this alliance.
"Sorry to have kept you chieftains waiting, my name is Mamuti, the fourth son of Luochuan Chieftain."
"I am in charge of this alliance," Mamuti said kindly, looking at the chieftains and casually took a seat.
"Welcome, young master!"
"What instructions do you have, young master?" Black Road Chieftain was the first to ask.
Sam Chieftain, Kela Chieftain, and Reton also stared at Mamuti.
As for Taiton, he was here on behalf of his father.
After all, they had already chosen to submit to the Silvermane Tribe, and his father hadn't quite recovered yet.
"The purpose of my visit is simple, to ensure the success of this alliance, Luochuan will contribute one hundred wolf cavalry and one hundred wolf warriors to join the alliance and attack the Silvermane Tribe together."
"Since Luochuan has shown its sincerity, I would like to know how many troops your four tribes can contribute and when to attack the Silvermane Tribe?"
Mamuti asked indifferently. Luochuan Tribe originally intended to use the four tribes, but in the end, considering that the Silvermane Tribe was not an ordinary tribe and the four tribes might not be able to defeat it, Luochuan Tribe decided to participate in the alliance and take the opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the Silvermane Tribe.
In fact, dealing a heavy blow to the Silvermane Tribe was the real goal of Luochuan Tribe. As for capturing the Silvermane Tribe, that was a pipe dream.
Although Luochuan Tribe had some food reserves, it could not support the more than two thousand wolves of the Silvermane Tribe.
So, as long as they could weaken the resistance, deal a heavy blow to the Silvermane Tribe, and once Luochuan Tribe got through this period, it could easily annex the Silvermane Tribe and the four small tribes, greatly enhancing its strength.
The three chieftains were stunned. Luochuan Tribe would participate and even send such a powerful force.
One hundred wolf cavalry plus one hundred wolf warriors, this kind of strength, any of the four tribes alone would find hard to resist.
However, they were more delighted. Before, they were also worried that the alliance would not be able to defeat the Silvermane Tribe, but now with Luochuan Tribe joining, the chances of defeating the Silvermane Tribe were very high.
