The Attack Begins

After Snyder confirmed Dath'Remar's condition, the Forest Troll launched an attack on the Highborne camp.

Bandersson arrived at the location of the other three chiefs.

The three chieftains of the Witherbark, Vilebranch, and Drybark Clan were resting together.

"You all seem to be doing well," Bandersson said, looking at the three chiefs who were resting.

"I'm not doing well. When are we going to start the attack? I'm running low on food," Azaxi Liekou said.

"No need to rush, Azaxi, I just came over to discuss the offensive operation with you for a while," Bandersson said with a smile.

"What a glutton! I can't understand how he could become a clan chief."

"Has the Vilebranch Clan fallen so low? Someone who only thinks about eating and drinking all day can become a chieftain."

Bandersson thought to himself, but his smile remained unchanged.

"What are your plans?" Lothar the Giant Tooth asked.

Lothar's words caught the attention of Rikro Crusher.

Several tribal chiefs who were following behind Bandersson also came over.

"In a moment, each of our clans will send out some soldiers to take turns harassing the elves."

"We are facing the main force of the elves; we have far fewer soldiers than them."

"So remember, our mission is to slow them down, not to kill as many as possible."

"Of course, so now we need to send out as many soldiers as each clan," said Lothar the Giant Tooth.

Lothar's words alerted all the Troll chieftains.

They were all afraid of being used as cannon fodder, especially the chiefs of the smaller clans.

"We naturally allocated the soldiers based on the average number brought by our own clan."

Bandersson's words gave the chiefs of the small clans a glimmer of hope, and they all breathed a sigh of relief that their clans had been saved.

The other three clan chiefs looked rather grim.

They brought a large number of clan Warrior, Bandersson's method was to have them send out many Warrior to share the cost difference among the smaller clans.

"I have an idea," said Rikro Cranio.

"Oh? Rikro, do you have a plan?" Bandersson asked.

"Why not send them on a harassment mission? They're not very strong, and the combined number of soldiers from their various clans is just right for this mission."

Rikro Skullbreaker stared aggressively at the chieftains of the minor clans.

His words also resonated with the other three chiefs, who, though unspoken, displayed their agreement in their eyes.

"If you do this, these clans will have no way to survive."

"They have brought out the best hunters of the clan, and if they lose them all in this battle, their clan will not be far from destruction."

Bandersson's words won the agreement of the other small clans, for if they all died here, their clans would be wiped out by the cruel forest.

"The forest is cruel; if they perish, it's only because they weren't strong enough," said Lothar the Giant Tooth.

"If we follow your logic, then it's reasonable for our Amani Clan to annex your Witherbark Clan?" Bandersson said.

"Of course, it is our duty, the Witherbark Clan, to follow the strong." Lothar Witherbark's words surprised everyone.

Bandersson also made some judgments about Lothar's Witherbark.

"We, the Drybark Clan, are the same." Rikro Skullbreaker agreed with Lothar Witherbark.

"I understand your respect for the strong, but the strength of the Amani Clan is not based on the strong bullying the weak," Bandersson said.

During the reign of the previous Amani chieftain, the Amani Clan had a particularly large gap between strong and weak factions. Only the strong could have enough food, while the lower-ranking Amani Trolls could barely keep you alive.

Moreover, when food was scarce in the clan, the lower-ranking Amani Trolls were often eaten.

This situation only changed when Shadra became the new chieftain of the Amani Clan.

Shadra climbed his way up from the bottom, an experience that gave him a deep understanding of what the Amani Trolls needed most.

Shadra's rise to power brought a touch of humanity to the Amani Clan. After taking power, he began to change the Amani Clan so that the lower-ranking Forest Troll could live better lives.

From the moment he came to power, he began to change the situation of cannibalism among his people.

So he cut many soldiers from the Amani army and turned them into hunting teams to expand their hunting range.

Another idea behind organizing them into hunting teams was to train the troops through hunting.

They also began to domesticate various edible animals, which helped mitigate the impact of hunting on the forests.

Shadra's actions earned him the favor of the lower-ranking Troll of the Amani Clan.

In this way Shadra began to gradually transform the Amani Clan into the way he wanted them to be, and Forest Troll of the Amani Clan revered Shadra.

Bandersson was Shadra had discovered from the bottom of society. Shadra saved his life, so Bandersson swore that his life belonged to Shadra.

Shadra also discovered that the Troll he had saved had some talent in witchcraft, so he sent him to study under the Witch Doctor of the Amani Clan. It was Shadra's action that made Bandersson is today.

"I don't care about such things; I only care about whether the flesh of those elves tastes good," Azaxi Liekou said.

Azaxi also shared his thoughts, and now the situation has fallen silent.

The two clan chiefs advocated sacrificing these smaller clans to preserve their main force, and that after the war they could take advantage of the situation to annex these clans that had lost most of their strength to strengthen their own clans.

The smaller clans, not wanting to be used as cannon fodder, sided with the Amani Clan.

As for Azaxi's opinion, it can be ignored.

"Alright, let's incorporate the soldiers from these smaller clans into the Amani Clan for now."

"This way, the Amani Clan will have the largest population, and we can also send out the most Warrior."

"Of course, the Amani Clan will send most of their Warrior directly, and the rest will be divided among the smaller clans, how about that?" Bandersson said.

Small clans directly expressed their agreement, while Drybark and Witherbark could only express their consent.

After the number of participants was determined, everyone went back to assemble their teams to prepare for the attack on the Highborne.

After a while, the mixed force, composed of many clans, approached the Highborne camp.

Bandersson naturally became the commander of this unit.
