forest kingdom

There are already 1000 people in Feiyu Port, and Lawrence has organized a large-scale expeditionary force of [-] people this time.

Of the 1000 people, there were 100 people left behind after 900 people. The 900 people were scattered on forty ships.

"Arrange some people to build houses, and some people use big ships to go back to Dumu Port to load supplies!"

"Brick, take the sled team back to the manor and tell mother that I have rejoined safely. If anything happens later, tell me via this road."

"By the way, don't use the sled team to take this road after ten days. The temperature here is much higher than where we are, and the ice surface is very unstable."

Lawrence quickly arranged for everyone to return to the north to report the news and bring more supplies and food.

Even after the ice and snow melt, the river road is not as fast as the sea and land. It can be reached by sea in two or three days. If it is replaced by walking through the river, it will be much slower.

The main rivers have ups and downs, and if you encounter sections of streams where the water is only as deep as your feet, the boat will become a huge burden.

Andrew and others were not idle either and went hunting in the forest. There were many ferocious wild animals here.

Lawrence quickly stabilized Feiyu Port and began to build a settlement starting from the port.

Close to the port are a large number of warehouses, then a tavern and a residential area where sailors rest.

A few days later, the Marquis of York, whom he had not seen for a long time, came to Feiyu Port with 800 people.

"Great prophet." The Marquis of York greeted Lawrence modestly.

The aristocratic translator Huey next to the Marquis of York took the initiative and said: "Great Prophet, my master has brought the Northland Kingdom's compensation to you, five hundred slaves and various precious gems, herbs, furs, wine and food."

Lawrence sat on the unicorn and looked at the crowd in front of him, "Very good, I accept it. As my friend, I welcome you to come over as a guest at any time."

Huey quickly translated Lawrence's words to the Marquis of York.

The Marquis of York said happily: "Thank you, kind prophet. I have always missed the Church of the Stars very much and am willing to come and pray once a month."

Soon Lawrence knew what York said and smiled: "I accept your conviction and welcome you to join the Church of the Stars. I am also willing to entertain you with food and help you make your territory stronger."

The two parties quickly reached a friendly agreement and then had dinner together.

The Marquis of York, who had been captured and ransomed before, did not blame or resent Lawrence. Instead, he had faith in the powerful Church of the Star.

Moreover, when Lawrence asked him to go back, he promised to sell him weapons and armor and agricultural tools. In the past two years, the Marquis of York quickly gained several powerful knights to protect him.

The Marquis of York was much more powerful than before. During this period, he continued to listen to various rumors about Lawrence becoming more and more powerful, and gradually his faith became firmer.

Especially now that he has seen the more than 1000 people under Lawrence who are in good order, he is even more convinced that he is not Lawrence's opponent.

During the meal Lawrence told him his plan.

"I plan to attack the Kingdom of Waves. The people there are not my friends, and they may rob your caravan."

"I hope that the merchant ships of my friends can sail the sea unimpeded, so I will attack the Kingdom of Waves soon."

When the Marquess of York heard of Lawrence's plan, he made his own suggestion.

"The pirates in the Kingdom of Waves run very fast, and ordinary people can't catch them. Especially since your fleet is so huge, they will run away when they see you."

"There are many islands in the Kingdom of Waves, and their ships are small and fast. As long as you hide in the river between the islands, you can avoid the conquest of the big ships."

"The Kingdom of Gran made trouble for them before, but instead they used small boats to knock down many big ships."

Lawrence felt that the Marquis of York had a point.

"So what good advice do you have?"

The Marquis of York did not speak, but the translator Huey spoke.

Xiu Yi suggested: "I suggest you use a big boat to pretend to be a merchant ship. Your big boat looks like it can hold more than 50 people. It will be much easier after the people in the small boats approach and jump to your big boat. "

Xiu Yi looked at people like Gris and Durand.

The barbarians in the north will definitely not get seasick. These powerful northern warriors are killing machines when fighting on the side.Lawrence nodded, "Good suggestion, what's your name?"

"My name is Xiu Yi, and the Marquis is my father." Xiu Yi introduced himself, "I was studying in the church and was not at home, so I did not follow you to your territory."

Lawrence said: "It's very good. I believe that the Marquis of York's territory will become stronger. You can also learn various technologies here, or take a ship to the north to learn."

Huey said quickly: "Thank you, prophet of mercy."

Most of the people here previously believed in the God of Dawn, but after the emergence of the more powerful and tolerant God of the Stars, relying on the violent core of the barbarians, people in the Church of Dawn began to deviate from the original religion in large numbers.

The faith of the nobles was not deep to begin with, and some even wanted to take the initiative to get rid of the constraints of the church.

After the meal, Lawrence led everyone to pray together for five minutes in the simply built church, and then ended the tedious ceremony in a relaxed and happy manner.

The Kingdom of Kojako also quickly sent people to negotiate and redetermined the boundaries of the kingdom, using a river as the dividing line.

The approximate area is [-] square kilometers, which is a very small territory. The original blond Mercia was not a very powerful noble.

However, Lawrence was very satisfied, because including the Fish City of the Hokuriku Kingdom, which is now the Feiyu Port and the coastal areas outside, the total area is two thousand square kilometers.

Based on the land and coast here and its own technology, there is no problem in supporting 100 million people.

The messenger Marle, who had negotiated with Lawrence twice, sent compensation, three thousand gold coins.

Lawrence only collected a thousand coins, "Take the rest back. These are enough. Our gods believe that this land is enough for us, so no additional compensation should be charged."

Mahler quickly lowered his head, "Yes, prophet of mercy!! I will praise your mercy to the king!"

Lawrence said: "I have a proposal. Before the Kingdom of Kojako takes the initiative to invite me, I will not establish and promote the Church of the Stars in the Kingdom of Kojako, but I will allow people from there to come and play."

"As long as they don't do bad things here, I welcome others to come and have a look."

Mahler was already thinking about how much he would bring back with two thousand gold coins. At this time, he hurriedly said: "Yes, the prophet of mercy!"

Merciful prophet who does not love gold coins!

The barbarians who relied on strong force to frighten the Western Kingdom landed and became neighbors of the Hokuriku Kingdom, the Kogako Kingdom, and the Green Forest Kingdom.

Many nobles did not like this group of barbarian bandits, and even hated them, just like the people of the Southern Kingdom treated the people of Luofen III.

Unlike Luofen III, Lawrence did not believe in the god that these people believed in, but brought his own church to settle there.

Powerful military force, courteous rulers, mysterious oriental power, delicious oriental food, oriental artworks and toys that people can't put down.

The Western aristocrats who played poker, drank milk powder, ate pancakes, and used chamber pots, no matter how much they despised these barbarians, they honestly accepted the more advanced Eastern culture in terms of their living habits and culture.

When the cultivated land area expands, a large number of villages and populations must be divided to facilitate farming and management.

"Now we will establish three zones, one is an agricultural and forestry zone at the foot of the mountain suitable for farming, one is a logging zone suitable for logging and transportation, and the other is a fishing boat zone near the sea."

"By the way, I almost forgot!"

Lawrence thought of something.

"From now on, we are not pirates in the north, nor barbarians from a country of barbarians. We are Homo sapiens! Wise people!"

"Our country is the country of stars!"

"Our goal is the stars and the sea!"

Lawrence began to rectify his name. From then on, everyone regarded themselves as citizens of the Kingdom of the Stars and were proud of their identity as Homo sapiens.

The first expedition to the Kingdom of Stars begins.

The fleet of 900 people soon sailed westward, heading towards the Kingdom of Waves.

It’s not barbarians going south to plunder, it’s an expedition by the Kingdom of the Stars to maintain regional peace and punish rape and eradicate evil! ! (End of chapter)
