When did our soldiers become warmongers?
Sousa touched the nonexistent mustache under his nose.
It's quite punishing.
"We are willing to fight for you, to unify the whole of Sumer, and to sacrifice our lives and blood, so please forbid Enkidu from joining the battlefield. Let us do everything!"
"Yes, Your Highness, we are fearless. Even death cannot stop us from being loyal to you."
"Our honor is called loyalty!"
"War brings freedom!"
"One people, one country, one Sumer!"
"Heil Sussan!"
The priests and soldiers said.
Finally, everyone hugged each other and cried, "Your Highness, do you understand?"
"It's such a shame that we haven't participated in the God of War for so long!!"
"We really want to pray to other gods and destroy their cities!"
"That's really cool, Your Highness!"
[You ignored the soldiers' cries.]
[You realized that it was not the right thing to rely on them, but later, you still ordered them to pray to the gods and then destroy the city as they wished.]
[In the name of the gods, destroy the gods' cities. ]
[Even when you act cruelly, you are righteous and recognized. ]
[If you are not a special person, you would also want to try it. ]
[However, with the efforts of both the soldiers and Enkidu, you succeeded in occupying all the remaining land when Gilgamesh had just annexed three-tenths of Sumer's land.]
[Now is the time for the decisive battle. ]
Chapter 48 The script seems... not right!
[The fuse of the decisive battle is about to start. 】
[Although you and Gilgamesh have no more meetings, you two still know that you are still facing a war with each other.]
[This has nothing to do with anything else, but a struggle between two people’s ideas. ]
[Will you fall into the abyss you have drawn, or will Gilgamesh free humanity from the gods? ]
[Or rather, this is the basis for your existence. ]
[Before the war begins, Ishtar enters your palace once again to remind you to be prepared and to call her if necessary.]
[The proud goddess expressed her emotions in this way. ]
[And I tell you, even if you fail, you will still be her subordinate god and the eternal king of Salvia.]
[You tell her with a smile that you will definitely win for her.]
[This is the tacit understanding and contract between the two of you. ]
[Enkidu watched it all like a bystander, and with a kind look of interest, he gave you two his blessings.]
[At least on the surface.]
[After all, you know very well that Ishtar is such a person, although she has super powers and often helps others. ]
[It can be said that she is a goddess who can bring infinite glory to Sumer, but in fact many of her actions are frightening. ]
【Believers will believe, but that is not closeness. 】
[And the gods ignored him just as they ignored her sisters, and even her father and brothers would deceive her.]
[So when facing someone who is kind to her and willing to approach her, Ishtar will show kindness.]
[Therefore, although he is arrogant, brutal, and unreasonable, like a lone wolf growing up alone, it is difficult for him to show his gentle side.]
[At least, as a god, you have the ability to look at Ishtar in this way. If you were an ordinary mortal, you would only be courting death if you looked at her in this way.]
【Leaving Ishtar aside.】
[In the following period of time, the war has actually already begun. ]
[After annexing all other lands, the remaining 30% of land is also what you must occupy. ]
[If you don't have the ambition to take over the world, how can you be called a destiny villain? 】
【Therefore, both of you are constantly procrastinating at the handover area.】
[But surprisingly, even though the front line is very tense, your land is still constantly changing. ]
[To be more specific, after seeing that it was your army that conquered them, some city-states actually abandoned their previous prejudices against you, and the residents of the city-states secretly opened the city gates to welcome your army in.]
[Some even wore formal clothes to welcome you.]
[Although the structure of these city-states did not change, Gilgamesh did not seize the power of the original monarchs of these city-states, but only constrained them to serve him and eliminated some incompetents. ]
[But for ordinary residents, having a bunch of managers above them is already troublesome enough, and now there are a bunch of classes headed by Gilgamesh. ]
[In addition, the country has been in a state of war for a long time, people are dying every moment, and there is a huge burden on food and taxation. ]
[These people in power naturally won’t take it seriously. ]
[Gilgamesh, as a king, may know all this, but at the moment it is not so important. ]
[You have already been at the gates of the city. If I don't face you now with the courage to fight to the death, my humanity will be stillborn.]
[But this was a heavy burden for the people, so when faced with you occupying an area twice as large as Gilgamesh's and miracles happening all the time, they chose to surrender.]
[And I also spontaneously cleared you of the unclear rumors in my heart. ]
【They believe that you are their savior. 】
[You are the messenger sent by the goddess of justice Ishtar to save the world. ]
【We will proactively provide you with convenience. 】
[Although there are not many such people. ]
【But watch their actions and listen to their prayers. 】
[You always feel like something is not right.]
……
……
……
"Something's not right."
Gilgamesh stroked his chin and listened to the information delivered by the scout.
Thoughtful.
The war had reached a very serious stage, so there was no time to make stone slabs.
After all, this thing still needs time to be manufactured, and then he can use it for transportation.
The scouts had already run to the next city-state.
What’s more, in the Age of Gods, it would be easy for a capable priest to fly over directly.
Therefore, the way Gilgamesh now handles government affairs is entirely by listening and speaking.
Fortunately, Gilgamesh is a king who is both human and god.
It is still easy to handle this kind of government affairs.
But the more I listened, the more something seemed wrong.
The more something is wrong with Gilgamesh, the more he will talk.
Many of the people in the city-states under their control, almost the entire city, spontaneously welcomed the siege of Susa.
It is obvious that my management of people has been very relaxed, and my technological progress has been exaggerated.
It is not difficult to do this relying on Gilgamesh's command.
In the future that Gilgamesh can foresee, people's destiny is to discover their own infinite possibilities.
And start by realizing that you can change this planet and create your own destiny.
Previously, Gilgamesh used brutal rule to inspire people.
Now it's time to guide people.
But the plot still doesn’t seem right!
Everyone had clearly seen a bright future, but in the end they turned around and fell into the arms of the gods.
This script is totally wrong!
From these rumors.
Gilgamesh felt more and more like a tyrant.
Not only was he the initiator of the war, but there were also many people who did not support him.
Wanting to be an enemy of gods is also an enemy of many people's traditional ideas.
There were also many priests in Uruk who were against him. After all, they were still believers of Ishtar.
"It's really troublesome."
Gilgamesh was fed up with this day-to-day work.
I don’t know when it started, maybe it started when a meteor fell into Salvia.
Not only did a green-haired killer appear on Susa's side, but the soldiers also joined the war like natural fighting machines.
And most importantly, the reason why they like war so much is purely because they want to pray to a certain god and then watch the god destroy their city for fun.
As a result, their methods resulted in very few casualties. Ten thousand people went in, and nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine came out, which can be considered a huge number of casualties.
After all, as long as the city is breached, the subsequent siege will rely on the advantage in numbers, and the professional soldiers here in Salvia will be unstoppable.
It is precisely because there were no casualties that who doesn’t like to watch the gods set off fireworks!
And the "Green-haired Killer" split into two groups.
These are the only lands Gilgamesh has been able to conquer so far.
Chapter 49 Gilgamesh: Where is the Gods' Airdrop!
When did it become so delicate?
Although Gilgamesh understood clearly, he still felt it was a bit strange.
All in all, the gap between him and Sousa was widening little by little.
It’s not that Gilgamesh is incapable. If it were someone else, the gap would only be greater.
The three mu of land we have now was also developed by Gilgamesh's hard work.
Among them, clairvoyance helps a lot.
This problem cannot be attributed to personal ability at all. The reason why all kinds of problems arise is purely because Sousa's development is too exaggerated.
There is no need to worry about logistical pressure. If you need anything, you can just ask the gods, and the granaries in the city-state are also full.
There is no need to consider the condition of the wounded. If there is any problem, you can also seek the divine power of the gods to treat it.
More importantly, ideology, whether it is the soldiers or the newly surrendered city-states, the sense of belonging can rise to its peak within a period of time.
Gilgamesh had not escaped from the environment of the Age of Gods, and his ideas were far different from those of Susa.
