Black Iron’s Glory

Chapter 332: Two News

“Any news in today's paper?” Claude went downstairs, came to the restaurant, and found her sister Anna sitting at the dining table reading The White Deer Morning Newspaper, which had also grown considerably as White Deer City upgraded and no longer faced a collapsed town daily a few years earlier. In particular, they have cooperated with the White Deer City Administrative Center, using the Eagle Message from the Administrative Center to receive a great deal of information directly from the King, so that the White Deer Morning Newspaper has become the most time-sensitive newspaper in the three southwest counties.

“There is little good news, and the Cromwell administration of the Nubian continent has clashed with the army of the neighbouring Kingdom of Hicks, the seventh small-scale border exchange in six months. The Kingdom is prepared to send envoys to the Kingdom of Hicks to lodge serious protests and intervene in order to prevent the recurrence of such border conflicts.

Deputy Speaker Obinit again submitted amendments to the Labour Bill to the National Assembly calling for the large-scale introduction of young indigenous populations from the Nubian continent to address the labour shortage in the Kingdom. An expert commented in the newspaper that this amendment to the Labour Act, if passed by the National Assembly, would significantly destabilize the Quadripartite Bill of Rights, which is the foundation of the Kingdom. Because the Kingdom has always regarded the red indigenous peoples of the continent of Nubicia as serving civilian classes and is reluctant to grant them civilian status… ”

Sister Anna handed Claude the newspaper: “I'll bring you breakfast. Are you going back to camp today? ”

Claude nodded: "Yes, I'm going back today, and I'll be home next Saturday. ”

Claude's life was very comfortable this month, and the training gathering services at Camp Trinity did not require him to keep an eye on them personally. The training plan was developed and executed by Lieutenant Battalion Commander Major Schneck, followed by three younger brothers, Muriel, Diaved and Berklin, who did not have to stay in the camp every day. Coupled with dealing with senior administrative officials in White Deer City, he was required to appear as the battalion manager, so Claude went back and forth from time to time between Stone Sentinel Camp and White Deer City and went home to accompany his wife and children in the evening.

But for the next half of the month or so, he needs to be busy, and the next thing you know, he's going to be riding Battalion One, Three, One, and he's going to be training in wild extreme survival combat in Bai Luzhou. It is not realistic, of course, that this training is not required for all battalions. Claude simply ordered each battalion to draw out a small group of the most elite soldiers, who would personally lead the team to Bailuanzhou for instruction.

“Where's Mike and Gemmy?” Claude asked.

“The two of them have had breakfast and are now going to skip your horses.” Anna puts white bread, black tea, bacon, fried eggs in front of Claude.

Claude nodded, clamped a piece of bacon in two white slices of bread and bit it in the mouth before picking up the White Deer Morning News on the table and looking. As my sister has just said, the important news that has appeared about the exchange of fire between Cromwell, the kingdom of the continent of Nubian, and the troops of the Kingdom of Hicks on the border, by the date, has already happened a week ago.

Speaking of which, the Kingdom of Oberas was placed in the Nubian mainland by the Kingdom of Nasri, the Kingdom of Oberas had seven direct jurisdictions in the western part of the Nubian mainland, the total area of which had exceeded the territory of the Kingdom in the eastern part of the Farea mainland, until the end of the war, when three principalities annexed the territories of the three principalities and added twenty-nine counties, an area comparable to the seven direct jurisdictions of the Nubian mainland.

The Kingdom of Nasserli, the undead enemy of the Kingdom of Ovilas, also has a colonial territory on the continent of Nubian, approximately the size of an overseas territorial jurisdiction of the Kingdom, with an excellent seaport of Vibato. This colonial territory of the Kingdom of Nasseri is adjacent to the Cromwell administration of the Kingdom of Orvillas to the north and the colonial territory of the Kingdom of Hicks to the south.

Before the war between the Kingdom of Ovilas and the Anti-Olympic Alliance began, the Royal Ministry of the Army had drawn up a plan to assemble local guards from the seven overseas territories of the Nubian mainland once the war had begun to attack the colonial territory of the Kingdom of Nasserine, seizing the port of Vibato and leaving the Kingdom of Nasserine without a cone on the Nubian mainland.

However, the plan had not changed rapidly, the war had not broken out and there had been an indigenous riot in the colonial territory of the Kingdom of Hicks on the Nubian continent. An agreement was signed between the Kingdom of Hicks and the Kingdom of Nasseri to entrust a joint anti-Olympic fleet to escort a field corps of the Kingdom of Hicks to the mainland of Nubicia to land from the port of Vibator to suppress the indigenous riots.

This seems very logical, because the colonies of the Kingdom of Hicks in the Nubian mainland are all inland, there are no port cities along the coast, and there is no way to support large-scale troop landings through the port of Vibato in the Kingdom of Nasri, which is natural.

But no one had thought that the Hicks kingdom's field regiment, which had landed from Port Vibator, would not leave, but would be stationed along the border with Cromwell. This was truly an accident for the Kingdom of Orvillas, which was said to be under the pretext of blocking the path of violent indigenous flight to the colonial territory of the Kingdom of Orvillas. To put it this way, the Kingdom of Ovieras would also like to express its gratitude to the Kingdom of Hicks for the failure to allow insurgent indigenous armies to enter its colonial territory and for the insurgency that has affected the stability of the seven Overseas Territories.

In the five years since all the countries of the eastern part of the Farea continent were involved in this war, the Kingdom of Ovieras has no possibility of another war in the Nubian and Hicks continents. The only thing to be thankful for is that, on the Farea continent, the Kingdom of Hicks and the Kingdom of Ovieras do not border. The Kingdom of Hicks is the ruler of the northern part of the Farea continent, and between the eastern kingdoms of Auvellas, two States apart from the Nasserly kingdom, where there is no possibility of direct war.

Even during the five years of war, the Kingdom of the Hicks was hidden behind the anti-Olympic alliance side, which, apart from not being able to declare war directly, had done much to lend material to the anti-Olympic alliance countries. The five countries of the Nay Ho Anti-Olympic Alliance are not very strong on the battlefield. The end of the war has wiped out the three principalities, causing the war investment of the Hicks kingdom in the mountain to watch the tigers fight a huge loss...

During the war, although the Ministry of the Army had plunged the plan to seize the colony of the Kingdom of Nasseri in the mainland of Nubian into the fireplace's bonfire, the Kingdom of Ovilas had not abandoned its intention to acquire that colony and the port of Vibator. At the time of the truce negotiations, the Kingdom of Ovilas had tried to force the Kingdom of Nasri to cede its colony on the Nubian mainland and the port of Vibator as a prerequisite for the signing of a peace agreement, but it had received very bad news.

Because of the drain of five years of war, the Kingdom of Nasri owed the Kingdom of Hicks a huge amount of astronomical debt and had to sell the colony of the continent of Nubicia and the port of Vibator to the Kingdom of Hicks for repayment. In the first half of the month when the negotiating envoy of the Kingdom of Ovieras demanded the cessation of this colonial territory and the port of Vibato, the Kingdom of Nasseri had reached an agreement with the Kingdom of Hicks that they would no longer have a land on the continent of Nubia…

There is no way for the negotiating envoy of the Kingdom of Ovieras to fail any more, and the Kingdom of Nasri no longer has an overseas territory. Had he been in charge, he would have preferred the war, which had been fought for five years, to persevere until the end of this heinous enemy nation. But it is also a poor state of affairs to force the Kingdom of Ovilas, which hastily reached a peace agreement after making several promises of reparations.

The change of hands of the Kingdom of Nasseri in the colonial territory of the continent of Nubian and the port of Vibator was not as simple as the replacement of a neighbour on behalf of the seven Overseas Territories of the Kingdom of Aubrey, but meant that the Kingdom of Hicks, the dominant power of the northern region of Farea, had stabilised its heels on the continent of Nubian and, with the excellent harbour of Vibator, the Kingdom of Hicks' naval fleet could wander uncontrollably along the west coast of the continent of Nubian, threatening the coastline of all seven Overseas Territories of the Kingdom of Aubrey.

In the two years since the end of the war, the Kingdom of Hicks and the Kingdom of Ovilas have had nearly 100 clashes on the Nubian continent. The border guards of the Kingdom of Hicks swung deep within 100 miles of Cromwell's direct administration, either in pursuit of so-called pirate ships at sea, the invasion of waters under the direct overseas jurisdiction of the Kingdom of Ovilas, or in pursuit of fugitives on land or insurgent indigenous armed forces.

Even during the summer, the buffalo herd in the Albato grasslands of the Nubian continent migrated, and the presence of troops of the Kingdom of the Hicks often ignored warnings from the local guards of the Territory, following the massive hunting of the buffalo herd into the Territory to obtain the hide of the buffalo, for which the two sides often engaged in exchanges of fire.

Despite its large territory on the continent of Nubian, the Kingdom of Ovilas is understaffed by local garrisons and reserves, mostly in the major cities of the seven Overseas Territories. After acquiring the colony of the Kingdom of Nasri and the port of Vibbato, the Kingdom of Hicks has already stationed two field regiments in its colonial territory totalling more than 100,000 people, and has also established a naval sub-fleet in the port of Vibbato, greatly enhancing the building of the army.

As a dominant power in the northern part of the Farea continent, the Kingdom of Hicks is surrounded by either his penis or his allies, so it has a great deal of capital to invest heavily in and develop the colonial territory of the Nubian continent. The Kingdom of Ovilas, however, has just completed a five-year war in which the treasury is empty and is simply trying to draw resources from the seven overseas territories of the Nubian continent to blood the kingdom, fill the funding gap and have no means of strengthening the defensive forces of the overseas territories.

At a time when the presence of troops of the Hicks Kingdom on the Nubian mainland frequently violated the territorial sovereignty of the seven Overseas Territories, the insurmountable Kingdom of Auvellas could only protest strongly, time and again, and then breathe down again and again, making matters smaller and smaller.

Claude turned the newspaper to the second edition and was too lazy to look at the strong criticisms and complaints made by journalists and experts about the brutal rudeness of the colonial garrison in the Kingdom of Hicks. They could not hurt the Kingdom any more. As long as there was no determination on it and the Kingdom of Hicks rolled over, such things would be repeated in the days to come.

The news in the second edition of the newspaper is the full text of the amendment to the Labour Bill submitted by Vice-President Obinite to the National Assembly, which is nothing more than a change of soup and medicine, and calls once again on the Kingdom to introduce the youth of indigenous red servants from the seven overseas jurisdictions of the Nubian mainland in order to make up for the shortage of young and strong labour in the Kingdom.

This is another very interesting piece of news, and it is well known that the indigenous inhabitants of the Nubian continent have sub-red skin, which is a very taboo skin tone in the Farea continent. From the folk stories of the magical civilization era, dwarves are gray and brown, stone colors and descendants of the mountains. Elf skin is legendary as light green and lake blue, and they are children of the forest. The humans of the Farea continent are white skin, blessed by the Silver Moon Goddess, symbolizing purity and brightness.

But the skin of the indigenous inhabitants of the Nubian continent is sub-red, which in folklore comes from the colour of the demons of hell, even in the magic books that circulate, almost all of them are painted red, indicating their greed, their desire for killing and blood. So the indigenous inhabitants of the Nubian continent are considered descendants of the demons, together with the original gods and witchcraft practised by the indigenous inhabitants, who have been murdered and persecuted by colonists from the Farea continent, an indigenous tribe has been exterminated and a piece of land has been forcibly taken away…

But these colonists, who think they bring the light of civilization to the continent, have an embarrassing historical record of two or three hundred years of colonial history, and they have left millions of hybrids in the continent. In the seven Overseas Territories of the Kingdom of Orvilas, there are as many as one million registered hybrids.

Everyone knows that white plus any other colour cannot turn white. Out of taboos on the sub-red skin of the indigenous peoples of the Nubian continent, the countries of the Farea continent rarely allow the indigenous peoples of the Nubian continent to come to live on the Farea continent. It is a reality of racial discrimination that no country, except some countries that allow slavery, has some red slaves to settle.

In the seven Overseas Territories of the Kingdom of Orvillas, most of life is mixed red, whereas real naturalized purebred natives are scarce. They are regarded as indigenous inhabitants of the overseas territories of the Kingdom and not as the real people of the Kingdom. Although squeezed and taxed, it does not have the power to be a soldier and cannot become a civilian class in the kingdom.

After five years of war, the kingdom of Ovieras, despite the destruction of three principalities and the new occupation of twenty-nine county territories, was beaten to ruins, with even more serious casualties. If we add the casualties of the Kingdom itself, there is a gap of nearly 1.5 million young workers waiting to be filled.

But the kingdom is also engaged in local conscription, so local counties have strict control over young and strong civilian labor in their own jurisdictions, prohibiting the displacement of displaced persons and young and strong labor. In this context, emerging business aristocrats who have seized the right to commercial development in 29 counties of the newly occupied territories have put their ideas to the youth of mixed Aboriginal populations in seven overseas territories, hoping to fill the labour gap by migrating millions of Aboriginal youth from there to 29 counties of the newly occupied territories.

The Vice-President of the National Assembly, Obinite, who should be the representative of those emerging business aristocrats, strongly advocates for indigenous immigrants, and proposes that those indigenous youths who come to serve for free for 10 years as servicemen be granted the status of citizens of the Kingdom and settled freely in the twenty-nine counties of the newly occupied territories, thus effectively filling the gap in the Kingdom's strength and manpower in the newly occupied territories and better holding the newly occupied territories in their hands…
