Chapter 210: The Kingdom of Beamon
After leaving Magic Lake Island, the delegation continued to move forward. After another eleven days of marching, we finally came to the famous Sanggan River.
The Sanggan River runs north-south, and the river surface is very vast, with an average width of about six or seven miles. And the west bank of the Sanggan River officially stepped into the territory of the Orc Kingdom, that is, the Orcs called themselves the Kingdom of Beamon (in order not to be confused, it was later unified into the Kingdom of Beamon).
The delegation came to the famous ferry port on the Sanggan River -- Hongtan Ferry. The reason why this ferry has the name of "Red Beach Crossing" is because in the Great War of the Tribes, when the defeated Beamon Kingdom escaped the Sanggan River, it was from this ferry that they crossed the river.
At that time, in order to stop the human pursuers, the orc priests sang the "Aura of Life" battle song. This suicidal war song sung with his own life summoned lightning in the sky, and finally after killing and injuring a large number of human pursuers, it successfully blocked the continued pursuit of the human army, and also gave the Kingdom of Beamon a chance to survive. The original name of Hongtandu was the more tragic "Red Corpse Crossing", just because it was too ...... It was later changed to its name.
However, the ferry crossing of Hongtan Ferry is not bad, this section of the river is relatively narrow, and the current is very gentle. On both sides of the river, the mudflats formed by the accumulation of alluvial sediment form a fertile land that is extremely rare here. On the east coast, however, these tidal flats are deserted, and even the tall trees have been cut down, leaving only low shrubs and weeds. And this is one of the measures left by the Kingdom of Bimon to prevent human aggression.
In addition, there are also a few Cadile crocodile warriors and Hepo hippopotamus warriors who survived the Great War in the Sanggan River. Because these water warriors were indeed too few to control the entire body of water, the Beamon Kingdom on the one hand cleared the obstacles on the east bank to prevent anyone from reclaiming the land and maintained a good reconnaissance effect, and on the other hand, it arranged one of the four powerful races, the Wolf werewolf warriors, to garrison on the west bank.
In fact, the fact that the light crossed the Sanggan River does not mean that it has entered the heart of the Bimon Kingdom. On the west bank of the Sanggan River, there is a large Gobi desert that stretches for more than 500 miles. On the west bank of the Sangan River, the Wolf built a chain of dock forts as the front-line outposts. After that, there was an army of wolf cavalry of the entire Wolf tribe, again on the flat Gobi Desert. It is conceivable that if you really want to receive that Heroic Medal, it is not an opportunistic thing like this trip, but it is indeed ...... It's really hard to fight.
And here, I will briefly introduce the basic situation of the Kingdom of Beamon:
Contrary to imagination, the civilization of the Kingdom of Beamon is actually not low. Like the fine art of the elves, the orcs have an even older civilization than humans. Of course, according to the current human (mainly aristocratic) point of view, orcs are relatively ignorant and backward, you can imagine the popularity of human aristocracy, especially aristocratic ladies and ladies, which changes three times a day, and the result is ...... It's totally understandable.
And there is a saying in the kingdom of Beamon: In fact, humans are also a kind of orcs, which is the evolution of the monkey people of the Munk tribe. You see, orcs will give birth to beast relatives on rent, and humans are not atavists?
However, as long as it is a human being, it will be the strongest and strongest scorn. They all thought that this was an orc delusion to put gold on their faces. Even bastards like Dipp, human scum who fantasizes about harmony and friendship with witches all day long, the same is true.
But in any case, just from the perspective of civilization, orcs can be said to be inferior to humans. On the contrary, the barbarians, who are also branches of humanity, have a terrible civilization, and even humans themselves do not recognize them...... Mankind.
Due to the long-term seclusion of the country, humans do not know much about the details of the Beamon Kingdom. It is only known that it is barely self-sufficient in food, but in the event of a famine, it still needs to hunt or import from humans. There are also very few mineral deposits, and the metallurgical level is extremely low, which is also a shortage of materials that the Kingdom of Beamon needs to import in large quantities. However, the Terrans also strictly manage such goods, and although there is smuggling, the total export volume of such goods is very small.
However, the kingdom of Beamon also has its own specialties. Due to its location in a remote area of the mainland, there are more Warcraft resources here. There are also many magic materials such as magic ores and magic plants that are useless to orc priests, but are very much needed by human mages.
Of course, there is another sad specialty - the orc girl. Like the fox girl, the swan girl, the Medusa snake girl, the butterfly girl, etc., are very popular with the human aristocracy. In addition, there are Catwoman, Pheasant Woman, and Rabbit Girl, which Dipu already owns. Of course, there are also more flavorful ones, such as tiger girls, lion girls, wolf girls, etc.
Although the kingdom of Bimon has an iron law - those who sell orcs will punish their entire family. However, almost all the orc nobles in the upper echelons, they were tempted by money, and they more or less did some things to sell beast girls. So now, this iron law also exists in name only. And the main channel for the export of the beast girl is the sunset plain, which is also a big source of wealth for those Tiger Seats on Demon Lake Island.
In addition, according to the grain estimates of Tongguò, although the population of the Kingdom of Bimon has recovered greatly, the total population is only between 30 million and 40 million. Don't think of this as a large population, because the largest proportion of the orc population is a vassal race with a very high fertility but a very low combat ability. And the combat effectiveness of these vassal races is even inferior to that of humans.
And the total number of powerful races and sub-powerful races that can become qualified fighters is at most 10 million. In particular, the total number of more than a dozen powerful races that can fight against human beings is only about three million.
As a result, the army of the Beamon Kingdom can only be maintained at about one million. Although all the powerful races are all soldiers, the elite composed of the powerful races only has 300,000.
Here are the four powerful races of the Kingdom of Bimon. As the royal family, the Tiger of the Tiger and the Lion of the Rhine, as well as the Minotaur of the Bill and the Werewolf of the Wolf Clan. However, the latter two races are less effective in combat. It is only because of the large number of people, and because the combat effectiveness of the minotaurs will become particularly exaggerated after they become crazy, and the werewolves have a terrifying wolf cavalry legion, that they can squeeze into the ranks of the four powerful races.
Another thing to mention: the combat effectiveness of powerful races such as the Orephin Elephant Man and the Peteran Bear Man is not bad at all, and they can even be stronger, but because the number is too scarce, they have not been squeezed into the four ranks.
Here is a special and powerful race - the Fox Fox. If it comes to combat effectiveness, the fox people are not worth mentioning, and they are even inferior to some sub-powerful races. But the intelligence of the fox is quite high, so the proportion of becoming orc priests is also high. The fox people are also engaged in military command and state management, down to business and stewardship, so they are designated to enter the powerful race.
Since the powerful races of the Bimon Kingdom do not have to work on their own, they are supported by vassal races. Therefore, the fact that the fox people can have such treatment shows how important their position in the Kingdom of Beamon is.
There are more sub-powerful races, there are dozens of races, such as the House Centaurs, the Peaks Pigmen, the Dowken Kobolds, etc., who are the main force in King Beamon's ** team. I won't cover them all here.
However, it is worth mentioning that whether it is a powerful race or a sub-powerful race, if they enter the living environment they are used to, the combat power of these races will be doubled. For example: the Cadilla Crocodile Warrior is in the water, and the Eagle Warrior of the Egger Clan is in the Scouting Field. But on the other hand, if you leave the habitual living environment, you will be a cup. Imagine a battle where the crocodile man goes ashore or the eagle man lands!
Also, some races have their own specialities. For example, the House centaurs are not very good at melee combat, but they are fast and shoot arrows quite accurately. The rangers, composed of the House clan, are the elite army second to none in the entire Yuansheng Continent.
Finally, I would like to explain that in powerful races, their old people and children have more combat power than ordinary humans. Even women are tough. Therefore, on the Yuansheng Continent, the reputation of the tigress and the roar of the Hedong lion is also thunderous.
In terms of high-end combat power, the priests of the Beamon Kingdom are biased towards support. Unlike human magicians, they are just as powerful as heads-up and large-scale warfare. In addition, human beings have sophisticated weapons and armor, and the total number of people far exceeds that of orcs, so the supremacy of human beings is fundamentally unshakable.
......
For the arrival of the visiting delegation, the Kingdom of Beamon has long been prepared. By the time we arrived at Hongtandu, a pontoon bridge had already crossed both sides of the Sanggan River. Some orc officials in fine costumes personally crossed the river to greet them, and after some tedious etiquette, the whole group began to cross the river.
All the members of the delegation were neatly draped, the officials were dressed in official uniforms, and the knights were fully armed. When the visiting group crossed the river in an orderly manner, they were warmly welcomed by His Royal Highness Deleng, the prince of the Kingdom of Bimon. Then there was another set of cumbersome ancient rituals, which made the waiting Dipu dizzy. He not only sighed: "This diplomatic work is not easy to do! There are too many hypocrisy and hypocrisy. ”
However, to the pride of the members of the visiting delegation, although the officials on both sides were dressed similarly, the equipment of the wolf riders who came to greet them was much worse. When those "wolf cubs" stared at the armor on the knights' bodies with fiery eyes, a wave of pride rose up, and all the knights' waists straightened.
While Dipu was secretly watching the excitement, someone on the side was secretly speaking: "Look! That is the Holy Maiden Feguli." ”
Dipu immediately looked over and saw that an orc girl was accompanying Prince Delen. When Dipu found out that the orc girl was wearing a veil on her face, she did not hesitate to give a "bad review".
"Do you know that the veil is the main culprit that affects the progress of the living beings on the mainland!"
