Monarch of Evernight
Chapter 1223: For Whom Born
Four Grand Chiefs and three Grand Sacrifices were newly joined, all at the Earl level. Some of them come from the Great Corridor and three from the Emerald Sea. The ranks from the Emerald Sea are all Count Gardner, clearly a section higher than the Great Corridor, the tall werewolf chief with bright feathers is one of the strongest, the dark force is stronger than Askar, and there are hidden signs to break through the Marquis.
The strong werewolves introduced by Askar will stand up, kneeling on one knee in the direction of the thousand nights, and touching their foreheads, which is their highest tribute to the King.
From this point of view, the attitude of the werewolves towards the thousand nights is far more respectful and loyal than that of the mercenary generals. Even the proud turkey-headed werewolf chief, who was not less devout at the time of his salute, returned to his seat to regain his high toes. Some of the mercenary generals also saw it and were somewhat disturbed.
After introducing all the new werewolves, Escar said: "Your Majesty...”
He raised his hand for a thousand nights and stopped, “Your Majesty, do not use this name from now on. ”
Askar was obviously a little embarrassed, "But inside the tribe, it's a habit. I can't stop them after such a big deal. Besides, isn't it sooner or later? ”
Frowning at night, he said: "Whatever happens in the future, at least now, I can't afford this name, so don't use it. ”
“Yes, a thousand nights... my lord.” Escar changed his name so easily, "said these companions, who are sincere in their desire to follow you. They have added your place on their respective ancestral altars. ”
The face of the thousand nights became rather strange, and in the Empire only the dead were put on the altar to worship.
Carol seemed to know what he was thinking, softly in the ears of a thousand nights: “There is indeed a tradition of sacrificing kings in the tribes of the ancestors of the werewolves, which is safer than any vow, and of course you cannot fall down the throne. ”
Thousands of nights barely nodded, and while his mind was still shaky, he also knew that it was this form of loyalty recognized by all werewolf tribes and that the risk of betrayal would become minimal. Until one day, a thousand nights were slaughtered by the new king, replacing his place on the altar, like the White Bone Duke.
These three tribes were the first of the great tribes of the Emerald Sea, and it did not seem easy to live under the Duke of White Bones.
With this bunch of werewolves, the power of the thousand nights in Lu has risen dramatically. Just be careful how you use this power. At the same time, the thought of stopping the Great Corridor tribes from putting themselves on the altar of their ancestors had to be completely dispelled.
Piety is the higher realm of loyalty, and the best way to keep this group of werewolves together without mess is to keep them pious, more effective and reliable than a contract written on parchment paper, which is the other side of traditional power. In order to remain stable, a thousand nights can only sacrifice their own feelings.
Next, a thousand nights asked about the casualties and aftermath of the battle.
Since the formation of the mixed legions of werewolves and ethnic groups, the Battle of the Emerald Sea has been the largest and most tragic battle. More than 150,000 werewolf warriors were killed and injured throughout the Great Corridor, and the Forces nouvelles recruited and trained by Xu Jingxuan lost more than 20,000, accounting for almost half of the entire Forces nouvelles.
Correspondingly, more than 300,000 were killed or injured by the Emerald Wolf. Owing to their limited capacity to heal themselves and the inability to provide extra support on this side of the Great Corridor, the thousands of seriously wounded in the Emerald Seawolf will die over the next few days.
After the Battle of the White Bone Duke, the jade werewolves participated in the Battle and most of the Reserve Army surrendered, and now there are as many as 300,000 prisoners alone, while tens of thousands of other werewolves fled in chaos.
According to the confessions of the captives, a few more werewolf units should be on their way a day's journey from here, adding up to about 100,000. Once they receive news of the collapse ahead, they will certainly flee back to their original tribe.
There is no better strategy than to send troops immediately to intercept these werewolf reinforcements in the wild and relieve the pressure to sweep the entire Emerald Sea.
But look at the house for a thousand nights, whether people or werewolves, almost all wounded, can't find anyone to lead, just do it. And there are hundreds of thousands of prisoners out there, and they have to be dealt with quickly, or they could erupt at any moment.
The work of compiling Emerald Seawolves is complex and meticulous, but it's going well.
As the White Bone Duke fought, large tribes in the core of the Emerald Sea were leaned out, and they were knocked out. All that escaped were sporadic tribes in battlefield positions. Tens of thousands of warriors sounded large, but they were scattered in various directions. Let alone the main force of werewolves had been compiled for thousands of nights. Even Xu Jingxuan's remaining Forces nouvelles could wipe out the remnants of the army.
There are also some marginalized tribes that, although recruited by the Duke of White Bones, are still far from catching up with the war, some lacking enough military food. For these tribes, with enough patience, Ken spends time, one by one, always calms down.
For the next few days, meetings of all sizes and sizes will be convened every day for thousands of nights, often in the first half of the day, without even time to consolidate the kingdom of God. The resettlement, safety and food of hundreds of thousands of werewolves is a big deal and cannot go wrong. It was not until after the personal meeting that it became apparent that logistics was not easy for the officers.
At the end of this day's General Assembly meeting, Song Hui followed Thousand Nights back to his private area. If you know what she has to say, close the door and wait below.
“Do you really want to take in these werewolves? ”
“Otherwise?” Thousands of nights think it's strange to ask. Combined with the great corridors of the Emerald Sea, preliminary statistics show that the total number of werewolves exceeds 12 million. With such a large number, it is only natural that subjugation is the best option, otherwise, once turned into hostility, killing is also a soft option.
Song Hui said profoundly: “This is 12 million werewolves. In the past, it was because so many werewolves could not feed the land that they struck Zheng Guo's fortress for generations. ”
A thousand nights nodding, “I know. But this land does not support so many people in the hands of werewolves, and it is different in our hands. ”
Neither the Emerald Sea nor the Great Corridor will produce enough land to feed so many werewolves that it will be necessary to spread the plunder year after year to maintain the lowest subsistence consumption. Among the surrounding forces, Zheng Guo is the best bully, which is also the preferred choice for the werewolf attack. But what the Duke of White Bones can't do at night doesn't mean he can't do it.
The werewolf tribes here are still at primitive levels, relying on hunting and rough farming for their livelihoods. Farming techniques are extremely primitive and backward, let alone incomparable with the Empire, that is, they are not in the same era as the Zheng Nation. Feeding these werewolves will not be a problem at all as long as crops suitable for cultivation here are introduced and unit area farming is made more efficient.
Who says werewolves can't eat vegetables? The werewolves in the Great Hallway have proven that between starving to death and grazing, the wolves choose to graze. Farming not only produces food rations, but also mixed feed and high-quality pasture. High-quality pasture can multiply livestock output, at least guaranteeing that warriors can eat meat.
It only takes a year or two, and the land is fully capable of feeding twice as many werewolves. In addition, the number of wolves able to feed will continue to increase if more is invested in the cultivation of high-yielding crops that are fully adapted to the environment.
The only thing that needs to be addressed may be the food problem during the transition period. But after the war, hundreds of thousands of elite fighters were reduced, and the demand for rations was far greater than for ordinary werewolves, who could barely survive this year even if they did nothing. On the other hand, thousands of nights can also choose to buy food from the Empire, thus filling in the gloomy period.
But Song Hui did not think so. She did not understand the thousand nights. "Have you thought about it? If the land is full of people, how many people can you feed? ”
Thousands of nights and nights, the question never occurred to him, whether he thought about the plan for the next year or two, or whether it was based on the current state of affairs, and did not reach the stage of extreme hypothesis.
Since Song Hui asked, he quickly rolled over a number. High ranking warriors and strong men cannot serve as examples of universal aptitude, and an adult eats far less than a werewolf and disproportionately less than his body if only the general population is taken into account. An adult werewolf is about twice the size of a human race, but eats the equivalent of four adults.
If we were to feed 20 million werewolves in the thousands of nights, it would not be impossible, or even more, to feed 45 million people on this vast land that stretches over hundreds of kilometres. However, the landscape continues to be detrimental to the survival of ordinary people, and those without power live here for a shorter life span than in the Empire itself. But if the population were to be moved from a neutral place, it would not be too different.
However, Song Hui's words have a deeper meaning. Thousand Nights thought, slightly frowned, "You mean, let me kill all the werewolves and fill in the blanks with people? ”
“You don't have to kill them, you can expel them. ”
Thousands of nights the eyebrows lock tighter. Even a werewolf, such a massive migration, means that countless people will die on the road. In such a primitive tribal form of werewolves, it is common to die half of the time during the migrations. This is no different than direct massacres.
The thousand nights sighed, "What's the difference between killing them? Song Hui, after all, this is 10 million lives, can you kill him like this? ”
“It is not my class, its heart must be different! Besides, there's so much land, you can't feed a werewolf. From the standpoint of my people, of course, we are going to slaughter the werewolves. How do you think Daqin founded his country and how did he open it? The continent now occupied by the Empire was not a deserted place a thousand or two hundred years ago. ”
The middle continent is certainly not barren, and the imperial mainland has its own unique resources, especially imperial and valve-controlled territories, many of which can be described as pastel ground. It was the foundation of the dawn that was torn from the dark world.
Thousands of nights know that Song Hui is telling the truth. The path of the rise of the people is full of sacrifices, and those bone blood belong not only to the people, but also to countless dark races.
He was silent for a while and said, "I remember hearing a statement that since the power spectrum of the world is divided between dawn and darkness, it also means that every community has the right to live on the continent. Destroying one community, dawn or darkness will give rise to another, so blind killing makes no sense. This is Lu, not the Empire, not the Everlasting Parliament, maybe it can be different? Besides, these werewolves are sincere and prove their loyalty. ”
Thousands of nights went by, frankly: “In this case, I can't do it. ”
Song Hui did not relax and asked: "With what proof of loyalty did they use? ”
“The lives of 200,000 fighters. ”
Song Hui also had to nod his head and sigh: "Well, even so. But what if they rebel later? ”
"I promised them that I would give it to them. If there's a rebellion, do you think I'll let them go? There are many dark races that have died in my hands in the past. ”
“That's good.” Song Hui was relieved, she thought about it and asked: “What do you think of this degree? Is it on the side of dawn or eternity? ”
This is the inevitable question for each kingdom, for whom it was born and for whom it fought. But this most basic problem has made the night difficult.
In the squeeze of the two camps, there is no shortage of self-proclaimed neutral forces, yet the moisture content is well known to all. To be truly neutral is either weak enough, strong enough, or neutral enough in itself.
