Chapter 9 - Plotting/ Recruitment and hiring

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

After the meeting, I was introduced to 5 other ponies besides the purple alicorn. I was told by honey comb that she is the new princess of magic, and celestia's student from when she was a filly and also told me her name was twilight sparkle. It is good that I made friends/allies so far, but I think I accidentally made enemies too, 'This is bad' I thought to myself. I got to get back home as soon as possible, and recruit, or hire warriors from all around to defend my capital at all costs. I was beginning to leave canterlot until celestia poofed right behind me a few feet away. "My, do you have to leave so soon?" she asked in a mother like tone as I turned to face her. "Not that I want to." I replied "But I think I made some enemies one involving your nephew as well as some of your neighboring nations." I finished while rubbing my head in regret.

"Don't worry my friend, me and sister including our allies will support you no matter what." celestia said with a smile on her face. "But there is one thing I forgot to mention." I looked at her in confusion thing 'What could someone like her possible forget if shes that intelligent?' I thought to myself questioning her knowledge. "Yes, well I want to know is why you picked luna's chair and not mine?" she asked and I got a weird vibe that she is jealous I can tell in her tone of voice so I answered. "Well gold would be too obvious, its just like how they expect heroes to save girls, but instead heroes are the ones need saving. In other words, in my point of view, its way too commercial, and I prefer silver than gold anyways." I finished my sentence, while she had a dumb fond look on her face saying 'Why didn't I think of that'. After that I left leaving her there, and took my supplies back to the city to continue rebuilding my structures, while I thought about it I fear for my life with the zebras. I hope I could still build a better future for them, and myself, I need new weapons and tactics again, but this time I will make new with powerful results.

King Dainn's POV In the Caribou Empire

It had buildings that looked crappy, caribou soldiers training, and some of my servants are enjoying their 'sex toys'. I was pacing around my room in the tallest tower looking down at my soldiers, making sure they were training hard for my next plan of action. Thanks to the zebra's new king, I not receiving any mares from zebraic anymore damn him and his allies, just then my messenger came in. "I have news sire, one about griffons aiding the zebras, and there new king!" he said handing me a scroll. I looked at it, not only did it say what my messenger just said, it also said that the new king is gaining support from the locals from other nations too. I had to think of a away to get this boy out of the picture, but how? I then thought of something, the minotaur's homeland, not only are there females look good to screw, but I will force the minotaurs to attack the zebras.

"Messenger!" I said "Send a message to Iron Hoof, if he can get rid of this human pest I will leave him and his people in peace, if not, then I will take his females, and destroy his kingdom." I ordered and the messenger went away, and I got this human right in his place, now he will be the example of those who denies the male's destiny.

Chris' POV In the Capital of Zebraic

I was at the training grounds, training my soldiers not only zebras, but others species as well. The giraffes are good at scouting over things and be able to watch the sky from a distance, and are armed with pole staffs. The antelope and the gazelle are scouts for fast feet/hoofs, and armed with small knives, including throwing knives. And last but not least the elephants the tank units in my army, their are armed with two-handed hammers, battle axes, and new maces I had the smites make for them. Now I have come up with a plan to assist the minotaurs, but I'm gonna need the help of the griffons as well, they have something that could be useful especially with my new defense tactic. Just as I was going through my iPhone Mango showed up.

"Hello my king." she said while bowing to me. "Oh, what can I do you for mango?" I asked her wondering why she is here.

"I showed up to help raise the moral of our warriors, by seeing me the elephants of both my tribe, and others, we could bring our allies closer together." she explained making her case. She may be right, the whole harem that her father mention could be what we need right now. "That's a good idea mango, and I think your father maybe right of what we should do." I said making her confuse while tilting her head slightly. "And what is that Chris?" I turned to face her while I gave her a heavy looking box that she can carry alone, she opened it, and it was a headdress with diamonds on it with golden markings of her tribe's symbol on it.

"Is this for me?" she asked with a shocked expression on her face while facing me. "Of course it is a gift not only for you, but as a way to thank your father for saving me that day, and I got to ask." I spoke as I stood before her. "Mango will you be apart of my harem, and establish unite across our nation with its tribes?" she to an aback as I said to her so after she regained her senses she gave me a big bear hug. "Oh thank you my king, I promise to be a good wife to you, and bare you a son if you so desire." she said while letting me going, as she was running off with a happy look of delight. 'Wow she was not only strong, but she was so soft I think I fallen in love with marshmallow, and an amazon female mixed together' I thought to myself. Enough about that I got plans to march, and troops to hire.

4 hours later during dinner time at the dining hall

I was eating with honey, ashy, and zashy again, but this time to talk about dainn, and his empire's army. I need to know more before I start to plan out, all I know is they live in the snowy region of equestria, and the treat mares as sex slaves for their pleasuring. And whats worse is that they have 10x mount of troops, and 3x the territory which is problem number 2. They also have warbeasts whatever they are which could be their greatest weapons of all.

"May I speak to you sire?" Ashy asked "Of course." I replied "Well I might know someone that might help us within the minotaur kingdom." This made me raise an eyebrow. "Who is that ashy? If you know something speak up."

"Well 3 months ago on one of me and zashy's 'special assignment' inside the minotaur's capital of Bolden Brass. We met a young female cow by the name of Flora daughter of Iron Hoof himself." My eyes widen knowing that to gain the minotaur kings trust, I not only have to marry his daughter and add her to my harem, and at the same time help their people defend.

"Well this took a weird turn of events. Have you two at least talked to her about me, and if I were to help her?"

"Of course your highness, she wanted to meet you with her father at the national meeting last time, but unfortunately she had other matters to attend to."

"Ok if you could, I want you to tell her personally to meet me near the mountains of her father's territory at the peek of the mountain to discuss how we will defend upon the caribou's invasion plan. And I want to show her my newest weapon that requires tons of oil, some fire starters, and final a few metal pipe barrels, that is all." I said as zashy wrote all of that down on paper in case of loss memory or something. They both nodded and left me alone with honey as she spoke.

"What new weapon?" she asked me. "I looked at my iPhone to see a way to help the minotaur, however I needed a weapon that could hold off the enemy, and in case we need to be on the offense we have to have it to burn as much as possible, if we were at close quarters." I said with a look of thinking.

"What are getting at?"

"I'm recreating the chinse flamethrower."

"What is a flamethrower?"

"It is a weapon which spreads fire from 30 feet away, fueled by oil with the firestarter as the thing that light up the oil as it sprays out like a squirt gun." This surprised honey a lot.

"What an excellent suggestion my king, surely the minotaurs will agree to let you lend them aid."

"Thanks for the comment honey, but I doubt they will let me I heard they're stubborn, now if you will excuse me I got to hire more warriors that will fight in upcoming battles, and help me develop my new weapon." I got up and walked to the armory to check on my weapon's progress, and it is doing good. I got the structure frame made, the barrel pipes polished for spraying, and got the pump to shoot out the oil in tact with the thing to stop oil from spraying out backwards.

2 hours later in the training grounds

I had hired a bunch mercenaries that claim to be good at fighting, and they were cheap to hire if the gold was right. I know that they can't be trust, but like total war they are what tip the balance of warfare itself, and their leader was an old female giraffe heard about my success in taking over the kingdom. So she wanted to show me what she was capable of, she goes by the name of Wheat like the tall dry grass, and from the looks on her figure, she's 50 years old with torn lion cloth. With her was another giraffe much younger than wheat, but much more curve than her, and wheat told me that this is her daughter puzzle, because of her talent for solving riddles and puzzles. So now at this point I got troops and mercenaries so that pretty sums up, so now all that's left is to complete the weapon for the defense of bold brass, along with the other species help it will work.

King Iron Hoof's POV at Bold Brass

I was still mad about that human for triggering a war with the caribou, thanks to him dainn would want my homeland as a prize for him, and his followers would want to have my daughter as their play thing. I was pacing around the room thinking to myself, until my daughter flora came in.

"Hello father is everything okay?" she asked him

"No everything is not fine, because of that human at the meeting he alone triggered a war with the caribou, and I fear for you and the kingdom's safety."

"Father, we both know king Chris didn't mean to cause this, he was just trying to help others in need, and that is the type of male I want to be with no matter what he is."

"You got your mother's rebellious spirt, I guess this human is the same as you when it comes to doing the right thing, even if it is not easy." he said smiling back at her. "Alright will go with your suggestion, I now want king chris to aid us, and he can bring whatever, and whoever to help us."

"Don't worry father I spoke with his servants about the matter so they should be here any day now." she said showing her father the scroll with the gazelle's print on it. "They told the king about the caribou's way of warfare, and he agrees to help us with also the help of the griffons as well along the way."
