Chapter 564: Joint Meeting

After Taurrell left, King Thranduil also left the snowy mountain in a sad mood.

After that, two railroad soldiers will come to collect the corpse of Chili.

In the palace of the Lonely Mountain, several major leaders gathered in the council chamber for a joint meeting.

The goal of this meeting is actually quite simple, and that is how to distribute the spoils.

Each unit had its own injuries, so their demands were also different, and at the beginning, there was a lot of quarrel in the conference hall, but Xu Feng and the members of the Snow Emperor's team were silent.

When everyone was arguing and red-faced, Bilbo knocked heavily on the table and said loudly, "It's not a way to go on like this!" Look at you, an hour ago, you were all brothers fighting side by side, and now? You need to fight for a little profit! ”

The leaders present all bowed their heads in shame.

Dain Iron Foot muttered quietly: "I don't want to earn anything for me personally, it's just that this time our Iron Foot Army has suffered too heavy losses, I must at least fight for the families of the dead soldiers, otherwise, how can I be worthy of their loyalty to me?" ”

King Thranduil said coldly, "Why shouldn't I? ”

Dain Tiezu frowned and said, "Her Royal Highness the Princess! Don't forget that this is my Lonely Mountain Palace, I have 100% inheritance rights here, if I really don't want to give it to you, you don't want to take a penny from here! ”

King Thranduil said coldly, "What's the matter, dwarf? Now that you have won the war, you will turn your face and deny it? If it weren't for our elven army abandoning their previous suspicions and fighting alongside you, your Iron Foot Army would have died long ago! ”

Dain Iron Foot sneered and said, "Hmph, if it weren't for our Iron Foot Army, your elven army would have died long ago!" ”

King Thranduil said in a cold voice: "Let's say one thing, if it weren't for your Iron Foot Army, our elven army would be able to retreat to the Wood Elf Capital!" ”

Dain Iron Foot sneered and said, "Bah! If it weren't for the desperate defeat of the refugee army in Riverdale, your back road would have been completely cut off by the orcs, how could you retreat to the Wood Elf Capital! ”

King Thranduil was about to speak, when Gandalf shouted with a magical roar, "Enough! Stop arguing! ”

Suddenly, the entire hall echoed with Gandalf's inability to respond, and everyone's ears were buzzing.

When the echo died down, the people in the chamber fell silent.

Gandalf said in a deep voice: "Let me be fair, the biggest hero of this battle is Lord Diedi, the Dragon Slayer, do any of you have a different opinion?" ”

Everyone quickly shook their heads, indicating that there was no disagreement.

Gandalf continued: "The reason why this battle was won was also thanks to the good command of Lord Diedi, so I suggest that this time we will distribute all the loot, and Master Diedi will be in charge!" If anyone disagrees, speak up! ”

Dain Tiezu took the lead in saying: "I firmly agree!" ”

King Thranduil also hurriedly said, "Of course I agree. ”

Bard nodded heavily: "Totally agree." ”

Gandalf looked at the grief-stricken Bahrain again, "Bahrain, what do you mean by the dwarves of the lonely mountain?" ”

Bahrain sighed faintly, "There are only 5 people left in our lonely mountain dwarf branch, and there is no need to express opinions at all, but since everyone has asked, then we will also make a statement, Lord Dragon Slayer, is the person we respect the most, and he is in charge, we are convinced!" ”

"Okay." Gandalf then turned to Xu Feng and said, "Diedi, you can't shirk this matter, just for Thorin's sake, you also have to take this responsibility." ”

Xu Feng shrugged helplessly: "Okay, since everyone trusts me so much, then I'll be the master." But let's talk about the ugly things in the front, I am in charge of the matter, in order to solve the distribution of this matter, I dare not say that I can make everyone satisfied, but once I start the distribution, all of you must accept it whether you are happy or not, and this is also the best and most direct way to solve our differences. ”

King Thranduil and the others nodded one after another.

"Okay, since everyone is willing to accept it, then I'll start assigning."

Xu Feng cleared his throat, "Originally, according to Thorin's agreement before his death, everyone in the dwarven expedition could get a share of it. A total of 16 people were entitled to a share, and later, there was another share from Changhu Town. In this way, the treasure of the Lonely Mountain will be divided into 17 parts, am I right? ”

Balin nodded slightly, "You're right. ”

Bard was very happy to hear this distribution, but King Thranduil and Dain Iron Foot frowned.

I only heard Xu Feng continue: "Of course, if there is no such war, there is no problem with my distribution method like this, but now there is chaos, we have just experienced a battle of life and death, and each side has suffered great losses, such as the Wood Elf army." King Thranduil himself does not need the wealth of the Lonely Mountain, all he asks for is the White Jewel Necklace, but, after this battle, the Wood Elf army has suffered heavy losses, and they must get enough compensation to balance their hearts, and the same is true for the Iron Foot Army, not to mention that after Thorin's death, in the absence of an heir, the wealth of the entire Lonely Mountain should be Dain's Iron Foot, if Dain's Iron Foot can't get a penny, then the entire Iron Foot Army will be very unbalanced. ”

Everyone nodded convincingly, Xu Feng's words were undoubtedly to the point, and the wealth of Gushan could no longer be distributed according to the previous contract.

Xu Feng paused slightly, and then continued: "My plan is to divide the wealth of Gushan into two first, one to pay for the contract that should be performed, and the other to pay for the war pension, do you have any opinions?" ”

When everyone heard this, they all happily said they had no opinion.

Xu Feng smiled, "Okay, then let's distribute it in this way, the first half will be divided into 17 parts, even those who have died in battle, they must find a way to give this share to their heirs - this matter will be handed over to you in Bahrain." ”

Balin hurriedly asked, "But...... What about people like Sorinchili Philip who have no children or dependents? ”

Xu Feng said: "Then in their name, give it to your people." ”

The old man said with tears in his eyes: "Yes, Lord Dragon Slayer...... Thank you! ”。

He was sincerely grateful to Xu Feng, if it weren't for Xu Feng's insistence on taking care of the contract, Dain Iron Foot could have scrapped the previous contract in the name of the new King of the Lonely Mountain, then they would have nothing to gain from the Dwarves of the Lonely Mountain.

Although this distribution is less than half of what they should have deserved, it is enough for them to live without food and clothing for several lifetimes.
