Chapter 240 Plans and Changes
(Today's 6k, presented)
Originally, after achieving a rough unification of the northeastern region of the small kingdom of Womuza, that is, the area around its capital, the capital of the small kingdom, Abes' next target was the fertile land in the south.
If we take over the southern land with its large tracts of fertile farmland, it will be a move that will bring only benefits and no harm.
It was all thanks to the "good deeds" done by two criminals, old Winston and General Paddy, one of whom killed the king and seized power, and the other mobilized unlimited troops through the wartime law.
And when the big and small forces in various places realize that their lives and the basis of their survival may be taken away by General Paidi, and he will feed a monster that is unmatched in the country;
When they discovered that General Paddy had falsified military intelligence and had done nothing to stop the Lizardmen's invasion;
Everyone's fear of danger would cause the small kingdom of Womuza to erupt into intense civil strife in an instant.
What followed was suffering befalling the people.
Under such circumstances, the capital region, which was the first to be stabilized, and the northeastern region, where the troops of General Paddy, the head of the seven generals, were stationed, became the Eden of the dreams of countless people.
However, after arriving, they will find that although the result is right, the process is wrong.
They did arrive in Eden, but the person in charge of the capital and its surrounding areas was not General Paddy, but...
An ancient hero who came back from the dead? ! !
In short, after using the teleportation stele to link the Royal Capital, Slime City and Sweet Leaf City together, all kinds of construction work followed in full swing.
For example, the construction of a new urban area in the royal capital.
Since there is already a new East Gate area, why not the other three directions?
This demand became even greater after giants destroyed the central city and prisoners who accidentally escaped destroyed parts of the outlying cities.
For another example, the comprehensive transformation of Sweet Leaf City from Sweet Leaf Town to Sweet Leaf City.
Unlike those traditional cities, Sweetleaf City, which was originally just a town, is more avant-garde and bold in design.
What is fully unfolding is actually the road.
And those roads were built to facilitate the series of production lines that Abesi originally designed here.
There is also the construction of the Eldenite Quarry and the Magic Arm Armor Upgrade Line in the Ooze City.
But, even though there are so many opportunities.
However, the large influx of population still exceeded the capacity of these projects, fortifications, jobs and work, and there was still a portion of the population who needed other places to go.
Therefore, new land demand is imminent.
On the other hand, the entire Northeast region also needs to make some preparations in order to launch the subsequent all-out struggle.
Tianye Town has iron ore, its associated mineral lava crystals, and land suitable for growing sugar crops.
It would be a waste to use such land to grow crops.
The royal capital has a huge second-generation magic blast furnace steel forging production line; it has a sufficient number of professional talents, and is at least better than other places at making deadly weapons and city defense tools.
The main focus now is on the magic arm armor, magic cannon, magic shells, and magic bombs, which were developed and designed after entering the royal capital, and the further production of iron birds is also being carried out.
However, in order to facilitate the use of materials and ensure safety, Abes also plans to completely move the production lines of stamped plate armor and magic grenades from Sweet Leaf City to the Royal Capital.
This is a kind of coordination and arrangement.
The result of this large-scale coordinated arrangement and rushing into the industrialized system prepared for war is that Abes needs some special material areas, resource areas, and supply areas to supply the machines and people of the magic industrial system.
Under such circumstances, the acquisition of the southern land, which serves as a granary, is even more meaningful.
----------
In addition to the two most intuitive benefits that excess population requires excess land, and industrial areas need agricultural areas to provide support, there are some other reasons for Abes to take back the South.
That is... the dispute and hatred with the Lizardmen.
Three generations ago, before Great Elder Paospa came to power, the Dragon Slayer Tribe and the small kingdom of Womuza even had a history of friendly trade.
If you ask some older people, you will find out that they even have memories of seeing the Lizardmen of the Dragon Slaying Tribe perform war dances in the royal capital at certain times when the relationship was close.
After Great Elder Paospa came to power, during his not-so-long reign, he launched countless invasions and harassments of varying sizes against the small kingdom of Womuza.
In addition, the Lizardmen are a short-lived race that are "laid from eggs". After several generations of Lizardmen had passed, Great Elder Paospa was able to give the Dragon-Slaying Tribe hatred towards the people of the North.
Meanwhile, General Paddy received a huge promotion after helping young King Robert ascend to the throne.
He launched a strong counterattack against the Dragon-Slaying Tribe and used extremely bloody means to expand his military achievements.
This has further deepened the spread of hatred.
However, this endless note is touched by some of Abbes's arrangements as a resting semitone.
That is, those lizardmen who surrendered and were recruited into Abes's army.
After they had redeemed themselves through labor and fighting, they were accepted by Abes.
When they were in Tianye Town, they were able to get along well with the residents of Tianye Town. Later, they moved together to the new East Gate city area of the royal capital. It seemed that the people of the royal capital also liked these tall neighbors.
As a result, they began to understand the Łomza people, and the Łomza people began to understand them.
Once this basic possibility was revealed, Abes believed that hatred could end.
Abes advocates unity among all races, not a pure racist. The priest's choice of Sass as his god was just a coincidence.
Even after Crimson, the red dragon, joined, Abes considered whether he should relax the conditions and welcome the true dragons if they did not think about re-enslaving all intelligent creatures through the slavery system, but worked together to build a new country of peaceful coexistence.
Thousands of years ago, Abes Grande ended the Dragon Sundering Disaster and was able to unite all intelligent races.
It is impossible that after a thousand years, we are becoming more and more feudal.
Besides, in a magical world where diverse races objectively exist, racists like Sass, the god of the human race, are indeed wrong and abnormal in their thinking.
Because, in a world where differences objectively exist, once you start differentiation, you can only subdivide it infinitely.
If you start to divide the Lizardmen who have caused damage to the small kingdom of Wommza, then should you also divide the Dragonborn? Although the relationship between Lizardmen and Dragonborn is like the relationship between Dragonborn and Flying Dragons, or the relationship between Flying Dragons and True Dragons, they are completely unrelated.
However, dragon blood carries the original sin of cruel rule thousands of years ago.
Now that the dragonborn with "original sin" have been differentiated, should the tieflings be differentiated as well?
After all, the rule of dragons is a disaster for the people of the entire continent; then for the people of the North, isn’t the 333 years of humiliation an equally important disaster?
If we want to exclude tieflings who have hellish blood, should we also expel orcs and half-orcs?
After all, they are also impulsive "redneck" guys, aren't they?
If this is true of half-orcs, what about half-elves?
As for the Wenqiu tribe, they don't even have a reasonable humanoid body physique and structure. Perhaps they would have been wiped out in the first or second wave.
This cycle will continue over and over again, and in the end, perhaps even the "ancient" Abes Grande will be liquidated.
This is not desirable.
Therefore, since he has decided to pursue the path of world national unity, bringing the lizardmen of the dragon-slaying tribe into his rule is also a necessary path for Abes.
The only difference is early or late.
----------
Now, that batch of lizardmen warriors of the Dragon-Slaying Tribe have been sent to the Supreme Heaven by Great Elder Paospa in order to catalyze the birth of lizard giants. The only trace left is the head of a lizard giant.
And what about the soldiers who followed General Paddy to "plow the fields and sweep the holes"?
Most of them died in the battle royale of the One-Eyed God, and those who survived by chance were granted a painless and quick death by Abes.
So now is the perfect moment.
They had all had their share of unnecessary disputes, but the hands directly tainted with the sin of murder seemed to be gone;
Moreover, they were also exploited by the same enemy, Shangshang Tianren.
If we want to end the hatred and restore the relationship between the small kingdom of Womuza and the dragon-slaying tribe to the normal friendly state of the past, perhaps this is the time.
For this purpose, Abes specially summoned the lizardmen warriors in his own army and had some brief exchanges with them.
"Of course I can just send ordinary troops to reclaim the fertile land in the south. After all, after losing the protection of the Lizardmen warriors, the pioneers who were relocated from the Lizardmen will naturally be unable to withstand the soldiers' blades and artillery fire."
"It is reasonable to just take it back without caring about the life and death of your people. After all, the small kingdom of Womuza and the Dragon Slayer Tribe are different forces. The king of Womuza has no interest in managing things outside the northern border."
"But I'm different."
"I am Abes Grande. I am not the King of Womuza. My development and liberation should benefit all intelligent races."
"I can have a small kingdom of Wommza that is trying to unify itself, and of course I can also have a tribe of lizardmen under my command."
"Now your tribe has lost all its warriors. If I don't intervene immediately, the Dragon Slayer Tribe may be wiped out by other demihuman tribes."
After hearing these words, modern rational people would probably curse Abes's shamelessness.
How high-sounding this is, taking back your own territory would be fine, but you actually take the opportunity to seize other people's territory and make them become part of your command, and you even say it's for your own good?
It is somewhat similar to the light-hearted sentence in history books [Destroy the Sixteen Kingdoms], but the reason is just four words, [Disobey the King's Rule], with a similar artistic conception.
However, instead of feeling angry, the Lizardmen warriors were all filled with gratitude.
After all, in this era, once you are captured and surrender, you are considered the enemy's property.
It is reasonable to do anything for the other party's power.
Even if Abes asked them to raise weapons against their own people now, although there would be dissatisfaction and it might even spark rebellion, it was reasonable in the "truth" of this world.
