Marvel’s Princess Chapter 427: Controversy
Bilbo Baggins happily went to study firearms. In his mind, he had returned to the Shire to participate in a hunting competition and enjoyed the cheers of the crowd. He still understood the principle of this thing, but it was obvious Easier to use than stone.
Bella was at the front of the team studying the next route with Thorin.
She persuaded earnestly: "Thorin, why are you so resistant to Rivendell? Your detour will only waste time."
Thorin still had that poker face: "Don't be superstitious about the adjectives in those books. Elegance, justice, and kindness are all bullshit! That's a book from elves. Let me tell you the truth, elves are a bunch of selfish cowards! They are cowardly, despicable, and have no honor at all! They will not let us pass through Rivendell."
The two had discussed the route several times. Even though Bella had expected Thorin's bad temper, she still felt angry at this moment! This guy is as stubborn as a rock.
Just say elf, you are yelling at me! In other words, the Ring of Fire calmed down Bella's mentality. According to her past personality, she had stopped serving him long ago.
"Thorin, what you said is correct, right? I don't understand your world. All knowledge comes from books. I admit this, so I communicated this matter with you privately... .
Let’s not talk about the elves for now, let’s talk about Gushan first. According to your statement, Gushan is filled with countless treasures. In my world, wealth touches people’s hearts, let alone such huge wealth as Gushan. If you don’t have the power to protect your wealth, then you need to gather more of your tribe or find more allies..."
Bella didn't quite understand Thorin's thoughts. In her opinion, "The emperor would rather have the talent to listen to those with strong soldiers and horses." If you don't bring hundreds or thousands of soldiers, you will rely on thirteen dwarves to go alone. Mountain, so what if we conquer the lonely mountain? So all the treasures in the mountain can fall into your pocket? Isn’t this just a three-year-old child holding gold through the market?
Either we quickly recruit all our subordinates and rush to Gushan like an armed parade, or we establish good relations with the leaders of various forces along the way, ask for money, soldiers, and weapons, and get a share of the pie afterwards.
It is a pity that her overly realistic view is incompatible with the blood-only Thorin Oakenshield.
In Thorin's view, he is the king of the Lonely Mountain, which is the right given to him by his ancestors. Then all the treasures in the Lonely Mountain should belong to him, and he can give it to whoever he wants. It cannot be wrong under the general circumstances, but the fact is that the residents of Changhu Town and Father Se of the Woodland Kingdom do not think so!
After all, there are still residents in Changhu Town who need financial compensation and the excuse of rebuilding their homes.
Bad, the acting mayor of Chang Lake Town, made the promise that "Thorin promised to share the treasure with the residents of Chang Lake Town", but is this promise really reasonable? From a human perspective, Changhu Town needs compensation, but from a dwarf perspective, that's not the case. This promise was made by Thorin when he was stripped of his weapons by the residents of Changhu Town and surrounded by people. It was even more humiliating than the alliance under the city.
This is just like those tour groups that force consumption. If you don’t shell out hundreds or thousands of dollars, you won’t be able to leave. You are already threatened with this. Do you still expect the tourists to abide by the contract afterwards and be grateful to the tour group?
The fact is that Changhu Town provided a little help to Thorin and the others. The whole town paid for a small boat, one person, one piece of clothing, and one weapon, and then a bunch of people just sat and waited for the money.
Judging from the results, they have paid their dues at least, and it is barely reasonable to ask for something in return.
What help did the elves' woodland kingdom provide? No, nothing. The handsome father of the elf prince Legolas just led an army of elves to rob him. He didn't have a single reason to explain!
What is the root cause of all this? Is it greed? Yes, that’s right! But it is also the power in Thorin's hands that is weak, and weakness is the original sin.
Thirteen dwarves are useless in the face of thousands of armies. They will rob you if they say they will. Bloodline? Bloodline also has to step aside.
Bella thought she was right. It turned out that elves and humans did not recognize Thorin's bloodline.
"Thorin, I know you have a back-up. I heard Balin say that you and Dane Ironfoot, the king of the Iron Hills, are cousins? This is what you rely on, right? But why didn't you rely on this in advance? What about showing it off? When the two sides really meet each other, the war may subside as you imagined, or it may start completely."
Thorin was very calm, and there was even a bit of pride in his expression: "We dwarves are not afraid of war. Do you know how many dwarf kings died on the battlefield? I tell you, they are countless! I am still that In a word, you can't really understand the elves by relying on books. The elves are cowards. As long as Dane leads the Iron Hills army, they will definitely run back to their lair like frightened rabbits."
Bella was stunned for a few seconds, then she was speechless and covered her forehead with her right hand.
She could tell that Thorin, who had been fighting all his life, was not unprepared. He was just trying to show off!
When the elven army arrived, the dwarf army suddenly came out from behind. When the time came, Thorin stood at the top of the city and smiled crookedly. He was pretending to be Shura God of War or something like that. How great!
"Believe me, we dwarves are far more united than those elves." Thorin said seriously.
Bella was a little at a loss for words. When she wanted to say something more, Kili rode a fast horse in front of them.
"You two! There is a half-orc wolf riding behind us! We are less than half a day away!" The most handsome dwarf is responsible for the investigation. Unlike the tribesmen who like to play with hammers and axes, his archery skills He and his riding skills are both the best among the dwarves. At this time, he hurried over to interrupt their argument.
"How many enemies are there?"
"Can you bring the enemies together?"
The two asked in unison.
Thorin is a battle-hardened veteran and wants to know the number of enemies immediately.
Bella has a typical mage mentality. She just wants to bring the enemies together, and then A!
Kili didn't want to offend his uncle, who was a slutty uncle, nor did he want to offend Bella, a mage, so he answered both questions together.
"It looks like there are a lot of them, more than 150 by visual inspection, front, back, left and right."
We have fifteen talents including hobbits, and the enemy is ten times as many as ours.
After a bad battle, Bella gained some experience with her commanding ability, that is, she is a giant in theory and a dwarf in reality... The little knowledge she learned from and TV series is in practice. There are many problems in the battle. At this stage, it is best to talk less and read more, and learn more from other people's experiences.
"I'm not good at commanding, you make the decision." She gave Thorin the choice.
Thorin looked at the nearby terrain. There was a flat plain around him, and there was not even anything to block it.
No matter how fast their horses are, they cannot be faster than the wolf riders.
