Chapter 212 The Civil War Begins

In fact, Tang Zhao didn't leave for long, and the situation in the settlement has not changed much compared to before. The dwarf Bourne, the kobold Toby, and the unicorn Lorraine representing the forest aborigines and elves are temporarily on the human side. The spokesperson, Earl Irwin, can solve most of the problems through negotiations between the strong and the weak parties.

Thanks to the fact that the current settlements are not large, this very simple and crude method can still work. Without the lubricant of Tang Zhao, there will be no problems in the short term.

Because the information exchange was not smooth, the problems in the recent settlements were discussed and resolved by themselves, and nothing major happened, and everything ran smoothly.

The colony is developing normally, but there are some things in Oran worth noting.

According to the businessman's news, the military mobilization over there has been quite frequent recently, not just in a certain border area, soldiers from all over the country seem to be gathering and moving, making people feel that something big is about to happen.

Combined with Princess Julia's recent positive actions and some rumors in the business world, such as His Majesty the King's health is not good recently, there are frequent meetings and frictions between the princes, and those who are well-informed should be able to It can be seen that something may be wrong internally.

Princess Julia hasn't taken the initiative to contact her, and Tang Zhao doesn't want to get involved in the muddy water. Unless she's sure, it's better not to get involved in the complicated affairs of human beings.

Needless to say, if you choose the wrong support object, if you choose the right person and do too much, some people will be afraid of too much influence. Zimeng is pretty good, there can be some proper trade contacts, nothing more.

In the final analysis, a city with thousands of people is not in the same order as a country with hundreds or even tens of millions of people. Karak Solma is at best a tough iron can. It’s not that it can’t be opened. risky.

After a brief understanding of the human world, Tang Zhao took the time to inspect the settlement again. There are more people than before, which is very gratifying.

Fighting between the elves and Colo, the other side was caught off guard. Naturally, many people in rural areas were not taken away, and they were captured by the elves.The relationship between the elves and this country is not good. Both sides have more or less the habit of killing prisoners, but this time they were stopped by the commander of the elves. He thought that Tang Zhao might be useful here, and in fact they did. in this way.

Let the lizardmen and goblins keep it under strict supervision, and then let the good old Erwin do ideological work as an administrator, and that's the way it is.

Bourne believes that there is not much difference between civilians of different races. It is the basic requirement to live a stable and good life. If this can be achieved, there will not be too many disturbances. Tang Zhao has no objection to this.Karak Solma is located in a river valley. The narrow entrances and exits on both sides of the valley are towering city walls and towers. As for the interior, there are many fertile lands that are still wasteland, which are now being cultivated by the police, and other positions are also filled. There is a shortage of people, and Tang Zhao generally does not refuse anyone who comes.Refugees, persecuted, indigenous peoples are all acceptable,
Tang Zhao also pretended not to care and mentioned the matter of undead creatures to Bourne, and wanted to tap on the side to see if he could introduce this kind of free labor──the cost of alchemy puppets is extremely high, and there is a risk of backlash from otherworldly creatures. It seems that there is not much population in the place, that is, brainless corpses and skeletons are the safest and easiest to obtain. As a result, this idea was strictly rejected by Bonn.

The dwarves and lizardmen value their ancestors and cannot accept desecration of the dead. The residents of the woodlands are culturally disgusted with unnatural undead creatures. Except for the kobolds who have no integrity, other races have their own reasons for objecting, and things are just as simple. Forget it, Tang Zhao has to think of other ways to supplement manpower.

Other than that, there is no obvious progress on those big projects: the dwarf tunnel leading to the elves is still being dug bit by bit; the engineer Sass always says that there is a big result, but he has not seen it yet; the defense of the city The system is being strengthened all the time, but the effect in a short period of time is also limited.

His physical condition did not allow Tang Zhao to interfere with too many things. After understanding the situation, he went back to the cave where he used to stay and hibernated to recuperate.

…………

The war between humans and elves did not last as long as that of hobgoblins. After all, their mobilization ability was not very strong. A month before and after, several parties signed a contract hastily and retreated.

Ke Luo and the elves maintained the existing borders before, and the two sides promised not to send troops to attack each other's territory within five years. The matter was considered to be an advantage of the elves, which was similar to what Tang Zhao thought.

After the cloud giant Tugrik looted and plundered, he took a group of giants back to his territory. As for the two human countries, it was a little more complicated. Although the Nirn people threatened the enemy's capital, But there is nothing to do with those heavily guarded cities. At this time, the power of the mage began to be revealed.

Strange plagues frequently occurred in the army, and much food could not be harvested from the original place. The food transportation team was attacked from time to time, and there were serious supply problems. At night, there were often reports of missing soldiers on duty...

The few mages on the frontal battlefield are indeed unable to fight, but guerrilla warfare is really disgusting. There is no good countermeasure other than picking them out one by one. The latter is too time-consuming and impossible to implement.

After the massive attack was fruitless, Nairn didn't intend to continue spending any more, and hastily signed a contract, the content of which was similar to maintaining the status quo.

The Nairn people have an extra piece of land with Waterdeep City as the main body. The area is not small, and the development is acceptable.The surrounding area of ​​Waterdeep City is directly managed by the royal family sending military aristocrats, while the rest of the area falls into the hands of Lynn. After several years of development, his strength should be able to surpass several other big nobles and become the center of Nairn and its surrounding areas. The biggest princes.

After all, he handles the entire operation of the plan, and it is also his main operation as a war. Of course, he will be given more rewards when rewarding meritorious deeds.

Speaking of Lin En, it is also fortunate that Tang Zhao left early at that time, otherwise the adult blue dragon would have really caused him trouble. The first time the battle ended, Lin En had to ask Tang Zhao for something, but he failed find someone.

The blue dragon is said to be the occupant of a small island on the coast of Nirn, and occasionally comes to plunder to collect protection fees, and occasionally communicates with human spellcasters in human form.His personality is undoubtedly good among dragons, but he is still a five-color dragon in essence, an existence that is not easy to provoke.

In case of being missed, the loss outweighs the gain. Tang Zhao doesn't have hundreds of years to spend with each other. Giant dragons are such narrow-minded and long-lived creatures.

I don't know how Lynn invited the other party.

While Tang Zhao was processing all kinds of information in a leisurely manner, news suddenly came from Auran——Humanity has started a civil war and formally resorted to force.
