The Complexity of Gluons

Gluons are particles, just like an electron or a photon is that they have their own field in the universe. These fields all bounce off each other and interact with each other and make more gluons. Gluons can talk to each other directly without any other intermediate particle. But wait, if two gluons can interact and push on each other, what it costs is to push it. Is there a force? There a force particle just for transmitting the strong force or the glue force between gluons? No, they canPush on each other directly. That's an immediate interaction. Those two fields, couple, and energy can flow from one to the other.
