Chapter 225: The Tiger Clan Who Vomited Blood
During this period, King Wardison issued a series of decrees for recuperation in the country. For example: "Encouraging Fertility Law", "Animal Husbandry Law", "Trade Law", "Mining and Metallurgical Law" and so on.
In addition, by virtue of his own prestige and by using tough political means, he broke the tradition of being a tribal alliance within the Bimong army, reorganized the army, and improved the ability of multiple arms to cooperate and unify command.
Undoubtedly, King Wadison's series of policies were quite successful. During these thirty years, the population of the kingdom of Bimon increased by nearly 10 million. Moreover, after learning from humans in farming, animal husbandry, and vigorous land reclamation, the kingdom barely reached self-sufficiency in food. Even the mining and metallurgical industry has developed greatly, and at least it can build some crude benzene weapons.
In addition, in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the Bimon army, although there was a truce with the two major powers, the Bimon Kingdom still launched a series of small-scale wars. And these wars are somewhat different, under the auspices of King Wadison, the kingdom of Beamon has calculated carefully every time and calculated the gains and losses of the war. In other words, if you don't take advantage of it, you won't start a war.
Therefore, in the battle of the black mud swamp in the north, the natives living in the swamp and a large number of swamp monsters were exterminated, and then a series of embankment drainage projects were carried out through Guò, turning most of the swamp into fertile land. In the Qiyun Forest War in the south, more than a dozen Green Goblin tribes living in the forest were subdued, and while stabilizing the Dìng frontier, a vassal race of the Beamon Kingdom was also added. In the battle of the western desert, the sand bandits entrenched in the desert area were completely eliminated. Four oases were also added to the kingdom of Beamon.
In addition, there were some small-scale battles, the cost was minimal, but the benefits of the Beamon kingdom were enormous. In particular, this is very much in line with the idea of orcs exchanging military merits for honor, status, and wealth, so this series of victories has brought King Wadison's prestige to its peak.
There is no doubt that King Wadison is one of the few great kings in the history of the Kingdom of Beamon. However, it is a pity that there is a lack of a healthy body!
If it's just a healthy body, it doesn't matter. After all, after thirty years of governance, all of the Bimon Kingdom are on the right track, and King Wadison only needs to stabilize the overall situation. But why face the demon invasion at this time?
......
King Wadison moved his body slightly, and his already sore joints were much more comfortable. Seeing his queen and concubines busy in the room, a smile also appeared on King Wadison's face. He remembered the green years, what a wonderful time it was!
Despite his reluctance, King Wadison has made his country his own, even more than his family. So for the sake of the future of the Beamon Kingdom, he knew that it was time to change the "helmsman". The invasion of the demons means a protracted war, and even requires the imperial conquest of all the country's strength, how can you do it without a healthy body? It's time for the Beamon Kingdom to have a young new king!
If the old and new kings can smoothly hand over, if the new king can continue his national policy, and if he can still guide and check behind the scenes, maybe the national strength of the Kingdom of Beamon will be further strengthened. The demon invasion is indeed a catastrophe, but it is also an opportunity. Although the endgame is difficult to play, it also depends on whether the player is a master or not, and King Wadison has this confidence in himself.
And now, the highest call for succession is King Wadison's second son Dezhen and fifth son Deleng, and their support rate has surpassed that of the third-ranked Tiger son - Bagula. Thinking of that Bagula, King Warddison felt a little funny, under his own careful planning and misdirection, in fact, Bagula had no chance.
According to the political tradition of the Beamon Kingdom, in order to prevent the situation of one dominant family among the two royal families, and in order to make more benefits for their own races under the condition that the two royal families are balanced, it is generally the Rhine and Tiger tribes who "take turns to sit in the village", and will not let a certain royal family occupy the king's throne for a long time. So traditionally, some of the inferior tribes like the Wolf, Bill, Fox, etc., they will vote for the Tigers.
But this time the situation is very special. Or because of the invasion of the demons, although the kingdom of Beamon is mainly divided into coalition factions and conservative factions, these two factions have a common basis - an alliance with humans. As for the points of disagreement, it is nothing more than what to do after the alliance. So the vast majority of Beamon are fully in favor of an alliance with humanity.
However, the great success of King Wadison also set an example of success. In order to compete for the throne, the Tiger people have imitated King Wadison for a long time, and even went one step further - if you want to increase the national strength, then I will further improve the national strength, if you want to recuperate, then I will further recuperate, if you want a small-scale war, then I will have a large-scale war ...... if I have the opportunity. Anyway, in a word: follow King Wadison's national policy, and it will be further radicalized.
Is this a wrong strategy? It is true that a group of like-minded people gathered around the Tiger people and formed a radical faction.
But if we analyze it carefully, we will find that there are many contradictions in these policies. But...... It doesn't matter, as long as it attracts votes, it doesn't matter if you call a man a woman. But what makes the Tiger want to cry is that the basis of these policies is the refusal to ally with humanity.
As for why there is such a basis, I will not analyze it in detail. As long as you imagine it, you can know that if both mankind and Beamon are fighting together, where will there be anything to enhance national strength and recuperate? Therefore, everything in the world is not static. As soon as this precondition was changed, the original rather wise national policy became ...... A bunch of "garbage".
It's just that I'm incompetent, it's just that the world is changing fast! In the face of the demon invasion, no matter how much conflict there is between Beamon and humans, they will first form a group and fight together. In the final analysis, they are all intelligent beings from the Yuansheng Continent, which can be regarded as internal contradictions. And the demons from the demon realm are their common mortal enemies.
And this time, it immediately made the radicals become the non-mainstream of the Beamon Kingdom. Even many less radical radicals and some speculators have changed their ways. This time Bagula's chances of being elected are quite slim.
What particularly saddens the Tiger is that because of their long-term radical political advocacy, they cannot change it casually.
