Chapter 430: The Crazy Shahua Fishman

In order for Naria to become a qualified political leader, Henry spent the following time talking about a series of methods such as how to win over allies, how to exchange interests, how to fight enemies, and so on. These things made the girls realize for the first time the dark nature of politics, that is, the eternal class and interests.

It can be said that no matter what kind of system a country practices, it cannot get rid of these two basic points. However, the class is gradually blurring in the land of Am, at least in terms of legal terms, the commoners enjoy the same status as those nobles and big merchants, but in practice, both the judges and the council will tend to favor the latter. After all, they are the only ones who can pay a lot of taxes and bring prosperity to the country.

It is precisely this point where the contradictions and conflicts are most prominent. Maybe the people of the Faren Continent haven't heard the allusions of Shengmien and Doumiqiu, otherwise they would definitely not give civilians too high a status in the law. Human greed determines that the more you give, the more you will not be satisfied, but it will also produce an inexplicable hatred.

Just like a slave, if the slave owner has always maintained a high degree of oppression, then he will never have any other ideas, and will only work honestly. But if, on the other hand, the slave owner is a little more merciful, he will have in his head such as: It would be nice if I could do less, how good it would be if I could not do it, how good it would be if I could be free, why can't I become a slave owner...... And so on, and there is no doubt that a large-scale uprising will break out in the end.

This is exactly the case with Am, where all people are equal in legal status, but the quality of life is 108,000 miles apart. People in high society eat delicacies from the mountains and seas. Lived in a mansion villa. Lower-class civilians are not guaranteed three meals a day. Moreover, when there is a conflict of interest, the rulers are clearly biased in favor of the wealthy class, and great discontent has been brewing among the people.

If you walk the streets of Askatra, you can hear the civilians living in the city complaining and cursing incessantly, and almost every civilian thinks that they have been treated unjustly, but they do not know how to resist and how to fight. Anyone who has ever known modern history knows that this is exactly the same as on the eve of the European Revolution in the eighteenth century. It's just that supernatural forces greatly limit the numerical advantage, making the situation involuntainable.

In Henry's view, the current Amm can be described as internal and external troubles, just like a powder keg, the slightest spark will explode immediately. And Naria is this Mars, with her aristocratic status and the political capital left by Sir de Anies, she can easily integrate into the upper class. As long as the common people show enough strength, there will naturally be political speculators who bet, and a large-scale unrest is inevitable.

This more in-depth political lesson lasted for several hours until the servant came to inform him that it was time for lunch. I had to stop. Sheena, who has always lived in a mountain village, shook her head with a wry smile and sighed: "I used to think that ruling was an easy thing, but I really didn't expect it. There are so many doorways hidden behind it. ”

"Yes, I've heard my father talk about this a lot, but this is the first time I've done this kind of anatomy. With these theories, I believe that I can definitely change the country. Naria had a confident look on her face as she spoke. She had no idea that if she followed this path, Amm would either be divided into countless city-states, or directly divided by the surrounding countries.

Ammon, who didn't care about politics, stood up and announced loudly: "Okay, that's the end of the discussion of national affairs and other things, let's hurry downstairs to eat, my stomach is rumbling with hunger." ”

Henry smiled and nodded in agreement, "That's right, filling your stomach is the most important thing at the moment. Let's go, I've got a hearty meal prepared in the kitchen to make sure you're satisfied. ”

Soon the four of them came to the restaurant with a smile and enjoyed nearly 100 delicious dishes. They were joined by Sennick, who had just been canonized as a knight, and Ernest, the interior officer. While eating, they asked Henry for advice on the development and planning of the territory, and set the main tone of low agricultural taxes and heavy commerce at the dinner table.

――――――――――――――――――――――――

At the same time, the Sava Fishman army finally reached the outskirts of the Angome Islands. In order to ensure that their operations were concealed, they did not attack any passing ships along the way, in order to achieve the effect of surprise. Jacques Houas glanced at the bustling city of Bluvent with a hideous smile on his face.

He turned to the priest who was following him and said, "Let everyone rest in place." In addition, some men were sent to drive away the fish, and only when they were full of food could they have the strength to fight. ”

"Yes, but I want to warn you that there is a huge mage tower on this island, and if we get too close, we will be detected immediately." With that, the pastor left to set out the task. She was in a very bad mood, because this raid was to put it bluntly, it was a life for life, and when the people on the island reacted, I was afraid that few people would be able to leave alive.

You must know that the mage tower is equivalent to a fixed turret with no dead angles in 360 degrees, as long as the reserve energy reserve is sufficient, all kinds of powerful magic will be released in a steady stream. Unless the attacker has a powerful caster or mage group, it will not make any difference to think about how many ordinary warriors will die.

Originally, there were a large number of mages and priests in the army of Sawa fish. But after being bombarded by a terrifying legendary spell by Henry, most of them died in the harbor area of Waterdeep, and now there are less than eighty people left, and most of them are not very high-level. It was undoubtedly a dream to rely on them to fight against a mage tower of this size.

Of course, Jacques Hoyas knew this, but he had no other way, whether it was the soul of a human or his own, in short, he had to gather enough of them, otherwise he would delay the plan of Sekola, the father of the Sava Fishmen, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

It wasn't long before hundreds of fish-man hunters with forks began to drive the fish around the waters, and one fisherman noticed this strange and strange phenomenon and hurried back to the harbor in his small boat to report to the guards. The guards who got the news did not dare to slack off, and immediately sent the news in quadruplicate to the city hall, the barracks, the mage tower, and the lord's mansion.

Half an hour later, Sycodi, the lord's wife, came to the town hall for an emergency meeting, and all the important people were present in a moment. As the representative of the Mage Tower, Borken took out a mirror and gently touched the diamond set on it, and the image of the army of Sawa Fishmen resting at the bottom of the sea was displayed in front of everyone.

He pointed to the picture in the mirror and said, "I believe everyone has seen it, this is an undersea army with a number of about 20,000. There is no doubt that they are coming for the city of Bluvent. According to the results of the divination, these guys will launch their first attack in the evening or at nightfall. ”

"Can you hold it with the current strength of the island?" Silky asked with some concern. As an ordinary woman, she had an instinctive fear of war.

Vaughn, the orc warrior, laughed and assured, "Don't worry, ma'am, I promise that none of these crumbs will return alive if they dare to go ashore." ”

Since both Corey and Hawke left, he has been largely in charge of the island's military. After so many years of recruiting and multiplying, there are two thousand heavily armored barbarian warriors alone, plus the number of ordinary human soldiers, it is not a problem to gather five thousand, which can be regarded as a strong soldier.

"That's right, I can also dispatch a hundred and fifty dwarven shield warriors, and these bandits don't want to take advantage of anything." Cagan, who had become a dwarven lord, echoed loudly.

Borken also stood up and comforted him at this time: "Madam, you don't have to worry about the safety of Bluvent City at all. The Mage Tower has been manned to set up portals around the two main islands, allowing the Fishmen to respond quickly regardless of which direction they attack. And we now have another killer feature, and that is the lord's animal companion, Ares. I had observed it two days ago, and it was already larger than a full-grown dragon, and its fur was thick enough to withstand most sword attacks. It is believed that once such a legendary giant bear attacks, it will be a nightmare for any enemy. ”

"But Henry isn't there, are you sure someone can command it?" Shi Kodi asked with a skeptical expression. She had only seen the bear a while ago, and it was clear that while Ares never hurt anyone, he rarely listened to anyone's orders except Henry.

"I've sent a message to Mike, the leader of the annual rings, that one hundred and fifty druids will be coming soon, and I'm sure they'll have a way to communicate with Ares."

Hearing Borken's arrangement, Sykodi nodded slightly. "Okay, then I'll leave all the work to you. Let's get moving, and let all the citizens outside the city walls retreat first. ”

"No problem, we'll set up everything before the enemy attacks." With that, the orc warrior stood up and gave a military salute, and then walked in the direction of the barracks. Not only did he not feel nervous now, but he was faintly excited. This is a great thing for a warrior, because you can only maximize your martial arts skills when you are fighting to the death.

Vaughn is in his thirties this year, which is the most important period for a warrior, and if he can't push his limits to become a legendary warrior before the age of forty, the more hopeful he will be. He himself knew this very well, so he cherished this hard-won war.

As soon as he returned to the barracks, Zubosa, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly ran over and asked, "What happened?" Actually began to gather soldiers on a large scale? ”

"It's war! A real war! About 20,000 Sawa fish-people are at the bottom of the sea not far away, and I have finally waited for this day. With that, Vaughn picked up the orc ranger fiercely and kissed him fiercely. Although the two of them did not announce that they were married, they have actually lived together for a long time.
