Durin's Diary

Chapter 518 Choice
After helping the soldiers on this section of the defense line to block the charge of the green-skinned orcs, Durin returned to the rear and immediately reported the situation to Tygern - the Great Woodland army was a mixed bag, from three-meter-tall southern giants to one-meter-two kittens, and each race needed different muskets.

Your army's guns have thirteen calibers, which is a large area. If anyone dared to do this in Austria-Switzerland, Dühring would definitely break his hands and feet.

But Tygern said he could do nothing to help - because the Great Forest has its own national conditions, and the various races on this land are not willing to submit to each other. For example, the Yak people do not get along well with Tygers. The villages on both sides can even fight for water. Only when faced with the invasion of green orcs, the two sides can still unite sincerely.

This made Du Lin unable to find a place to complain.

This is really unbearable. No wonder the human world says that the invasion of green-skinned orcs all came from the Great Forest.

Daju felt a little embarrassed after complaining.

Du Lin shook his head: "But different guns use different bullets. Isn't this too unfair to the soldiers?" After Du Lin said this, he thought about it and decided to transfer twenty artillery teams from Austria-Switzerland.

This was originally Durin's secret power, but in order to teach the fools in the big forest a lesson, Durin could no longer hide it.

………………

When Durin's artillery team came over, all the forest owners in the big forest could not understand these soldiers - they only had revolvers of the same caliber in their hands, and many of the small Nicolaes kittens had to use engineering gloves to hold the revolvers steadily.

But when the artillery crew and shells arrived, Durin ordered the artillery crew to fire a basic number of shells at the green-skinned orc camp outside the city in the middle of the night.

All they used were incendiary bombs. By the second day, the fire in the green-skinned orc camp had not been extinguished. For the next two days, the green-skinned orcs were unable to even organize a ground attack.

Du Lin let all the forest owners watch this attack, and then told them the benefits of unifying the caliber of weapons as much as possible, and also to prevent the small races from filling the line - the rabbits were at least 1.5 or 1.6 meters tall, and you, Nicolas the kitten, were only 1.2 meters tall. Standing in a 1.9-meter trench in the woods, you couldn't see outside at all.

As for the 22.5-point fire sticks in their hands, they could not hurt the green-skinned orcs at all unless they hit their eye sockets and went straight into their brains.

"It is best to fix the caliber of weapons at 10mm, 20mm and 8mm." Three different calibers can use different bullet diameters, which is much easier to maintain than your current dozen calibers and more bullets of different calibers. In this way, you only need to transport three types of bullets to complete the supply.

After Du Lin finished speaking, he stopped trying to persuade them. He had already done his best.

"Kid, you always like to help others, but with their current system, every race has weapons in their hands. It looks really sad." The old man had a different opinion on this. He looked at the young soldiers lying in the crematorium area today with regret.

"It's a pity that we can't save everything. It's hard to persuade the damn ghost with kind words." Finally, he sighed.

Every time a sacrifice was made, only the earth was dyed red. But even with such a small piece of land, there were still so many guys. When Du Lin thought of these guys' stubbornness, he felt that he was powerless and could not persuade them at all.

The old man is not wrong.

Every forest owner wants to have enough military force to prevent their homes from being affected when the defense line really collapses.

But this way, the strength will not be used in one place. This is also the limitation of the times, and no one is to blame.

But why do we have to lie there and do nothing? Can't we wear some protective equipment?

Yes, they have no choice but to do this. They are even willing to push themselves onto the battlefield just to expose everything in their hands to the brink of destruction.

………………

Durin's persuasion soon reached people from all walks of life in the Evercast Fortress.

For example, Angelio Gallagher.

After hearing what Du Lin said, he looked at his old friend with some helplessness. The latter shook his head and said, "If the forest owners of the Great Forest were not so easy to persuade, things wouldn't have turned out like this."

"Every forest lord has his own plans. The Great Forest was originally a loose sand. The first Great Forest lord worked hard to rally the people, but his successor clearly lacked the strength. The most recent Great Forest lord, the Pekla clan, was even more powerless." An Jialuo sighed. His old friend beside him pondered for a moment, and finally looked at An Jialuo: "An Jialuo, if... I mean if, Du Lin could become the Great Forest lord, do you think you could change the chaos in that land?"

"He is a grassland elf, and I'm afraid he won't be able to win the support of the people." An Jialuo was pessimistic about this.

His old friend shook his head and said, "Didn't Durin marry Titus' daughter Yara? If his child is promoted to the position of Great Forest Lord, doesn't that mean that Durin will do his best to help the Great Forest Land?"

"How is this possible? Don't you and I know the state of mind of Yara? She is a child who is devoted to studying and learning martial arts. Her marriage with Dulin is probably just a smokescreen." Angallo shook his head again.

"But if this greenskin invasion completely hurts all the tribes in the Great Forest, if she sees so many sacrifices in front of her, war will kill people, do you think she will make changes?" his old friend analyzed.

Angario was silent - it was true that Yara was a child who was devoted to learning martial arts, but she was a Taegus girl after all. Seeing so many sacrifices, she would not remain indifferent. Just like she followed martial arts, she also wanted to become a hero of the Great Forest like her father.

Who says you have to become a legend to save the Great Woods?

Thinking of this, An Jialuo spoke again: "What do you have in mind?"

"It's simple. She has many friends serving in the military. War means casualties. The more friends die, the more doubts she'll harbor. Then, with just a little push, Yara will choose to sacrifice herself." The old friend said this and looked at Angario. "If you don't want to be the bad guy, then let me do it. Everyone has to pay the price for their choices."

"No, let my people do it." After saying that, Angario closed his eyes: "But, will it really work if I put the child on the throne?"

"It's better than watching the Great Woods burn down and being powerless to do anything about it." At this point, his old friend sighed and said, "If you and I don't try to see, how can we know whether that girl is truly willing to sacrifice everything for this land?"
