Chapter 125: Encounter at Granni Stone Hall
For the dwarves, due to their extremely small population, they often need help from humans.
For some things that are not important to the dwarves, the best laborers are humans.
It has been a tradition for more than two thousand years that dwarves provide technology and humans provide manpower. Since Sigmar established his empire, there has been no problem with this model of cooperation between humans and dwarves.
High King Thorgrim immediately agreed with Windlow's suggestion that it would be better for dwarves to do the job of quartermaster.
After all, the human race cannot be trusted. As long as there are too many supply lines, some gold coins will always disappear. The quartermaster certainly knows where the money has gone.
But there was no need to worry for now, as there was only one supply line, and even if the human, Windlow, came for the extra money, he would have no chance under the dwarfs' noses.
"Okay, you are hired as a quartermaster. Provide us with supplies. The salary is 5 gold coins."
This was a big deal, and Windlow took it immediately.
Although he had seen orders for two thousand gold coins, he would never disdain an order for five gold coins.
Moreover, it is easy to make money. Using unicorns as a carrying force, it is enough to transport supplies and ammunition for the dwarves. It is not difficult at all.
After saying that, Thorgren also took out a deposit of one gold coin and then approved a note.
Just find the warehouse keeper at Karaz a Karak and use this note to get the supplies.
Holding a gold coin as a deposit in his hand, Wendlow nodded in thanks.
In fact, there is no need for a deposit when doing business with dwarves. After all, honest dwarves will never sell on credit.
However, looking at the supplies he needed to transport, Windlow shook his head slightly.
Arrows, food, medicine, and ammunition for the dwarf bombers.
No matter what time or period, physical work is always the hardest job, but it's good enough to make some money.
Together with Mousse, Windlow loaded batch after batch of supplies onto the carriage behind the unicorn.
There is quite a lot of stuff to be transported in this trip, the only advantage is that there are roads connecting the towns in the Dwarf Kingdom.
The unicorn was pulling the cart in front, Windlow was also controlling the direction in front, and Mousse took a deep breath and pushed the cart from the back.
This was exactly the kind of slave life she hated the most, but she had to admit that it was effective and could improve her endurance levels.
The dwarf army did not move very fast, and Windlo's supply vehicles could only keep up with the speed of the large army.
After walking for about half a day, the dwarves in front suddenly stopped and crouched on the ground, like the fallen imperial soldiers.
"There's something ahead, Windlow. It's an enemy."
Mousse's keen sense came in handy again. Before he could see clearly what was ahead, the dark elf had already smelled the scent of greenskins in the air.
Tom Phillipson, the dwarf engineer standing in the front, also used his telescope to see the composition of the enemy clearly, a large army of greenskins.
It seemed that they were frustrated because they could not attack Granni Stone Hall. There was no battle to fight, and a large number of greenskins had chosen to leave and head towards the dwarf capital.
"Encounter!"
Thorgrin, who was sitting on the rickshaw, roared, and every dwarf soldier present heard the High King's cry.
Decades of training enabled every dwarf soldier to form their own formation at the very beginning.
The Imperial University has even studied and learned dwarven tactics. In encounters, dwarves use two of the most common battle formations.
The first type of tactics is to gather together to form a thick steel wall, using armor to resist all enemies attacking them, like a turtle retracting into its shell.
This kind of tactic was called "Box" by the Imperial military scientists.
The second tactic is to lean against a mountain or a river, using the mountain or river to block your own back, and only engage the enemy head-on.
Use the Dwarfs' powerful line-holding ability to resist enemy attacks, and use muskets, crossbowmen and artillery to vent terrible anger on the enemy.
This tactic was called "guarding the corner" by imperial military scientists.
In encounters, dwarves only use box tactics and corner defense tactics. Although the tactics are simple, they are famously effective against greenskins.
Although the dwarves' movement speed was not fast, they were able to complete the formation in a very short time, and the dwarf army was piled up into a box.
On the outside are dwarf warriors equipped with heavy armor, shields and one-handed axes.
In the middle is a heavy crossbowman equipped with a heavy crossbow.
The bombers hovering in the sky were already flying towards the greenskin army.
"Boys, let's fight!"
When the greenskins saw the dwarf army appearing before them, they also became excited.
They had surrounded Granni Stone Hall for such a long time, but no dwarves came out to fight them.
Now it’s good, we can finally fight.
There was no formation or tactics at all, the greenskins just rushed over.
The green-skinned orcs were big in size and ran fast, so they soon left the goblins with bows and arrows behind. The goblins were timid and afraid of trouble, so they could hide behind and shoot arrows.
"Dwarves are so boring. They fly like birds and we can't hit them. Hey, the iron bird laid eggs!"
The dwarf bomber had already flown over the heads of the green orcs, and then the pilot pressed the red button in his hand, and a bomb fell from the sky.
It fell straight into the greenskin formation, and the moment it touched the ground, it burst out with terrifying light and heat.
The explosion radius was as large as ten meters, and all the greenskins within the ten-meter range were basically blown into pieces by this bomb.
Even those who were some distance away were pierced by the fragments of the bomb, and they fell to the ground while running, unable to get up again.
The goblins also knew what enemies they should deal with, so they raised their bows and arrows and wanted to shoot down the dwarf bombers.
The bomber was hit by a few arrows, and the clanging sound completely angered the bomber pilot.
The bomber stopped bombing the green orcs and circled towards the goblins, with a few explosives for the goblins to eat.
"The dwarves lack the ability to kill their generals."
Even though he was far away, Mousse could see the entire situation on the battlefield.
"Their crossbowmen use projectile firepower, just like the high elves, and it is difficult to hit a single target."
Mousse has already drawn his sword.
"Their soldiers have short arms and legs, and it's hard to hit the green-skinned orc warriors who have excellent fighting instincts. So, Wendlow, what should I say to the dwarves after I get there?"
Windlow also knew that Mousse needed to hide her elf identity, otherwise she might be attacked by the dwarves.
"Just say you're a human mercenary with me, and you kill greenskins for money. You kill greenskins just to get money."
