"First."
"Lord Zhu Ling surely knows what coal means to the human race. We will not sit back and watch the dwarfs run rampant this winter. Frankly speaking, regardless of whether we can reach a cooperation agreement with the ents, we are going to launch a preliminary attack drill against the Black Stone base camp occupied by the dwarfs to boost our territory's prestige.
"Of course, I cannot disclose whether we will launch a frontal assault or use other methods, but our objective is set in stone. We are going to empty their coal reserves.
"For this, it is my Hope that the ents can dispatch thirty to fifty Ents to assist us from the sidelines."
After a brief moment of thought, Zhuling nodded directly. "I can agree to your request, but you must not use our Ent brothers as cannon fodder. If the casualties are too high, or if the plan's risks become too severe, I will immediately halt our cooperation."
