Vegetable Skeleton's Exotic Land Reclamation

Was he so cruel? Mesa was questioned by Anthony, and soon became suspicious of her life.

"When you have the ability to save lives, it is cruel if you don't do it, especially when it will leave you with endless troubles. Thousands of people are waiting for you to save, but you are huddled in your own safe territory. Ignore their painful wailing outside the border. Do you know how many people will starve to death without the food of adults?" Anthony asked sadly.

Mesa felt heavy and shook her head.

Anthony sighed: "I don't know the specific situation of the Principality of Us, but based on the situation of the Holy Church's jurisdiction, the food gap in the entire plane may be as high as five percent."

five percent? This number is not big ah? Huh? Holy Church? Anthony? Your Majesty the Pope! Meisha finally realized who the mysterious cloaked man in front of her was.

Anthony obviously saw the disapproval in Mesa's eyes, and shook his head: "This is not a 5% problem. When the entire plane has 5% of the population without food, what does it mean? It means that the price of food can be raised infinitely." , until five percent of the population dies of complete starvation."

"With the addition of hoarding, uneven distribution, inconvenient transportation, war chaos, etc., this number may be multiplied several times. In order not to let themselves become this few percent, hungry people can do any cruel things, such as putting The tauren ate it."

Vanya flew into trouble, staring at the bull's eyes and looking around blankly: Why do you want to eat the tauren?

Lisa, Negris, Rogge, etc. were all silent. Of course, they heard what Anthony meant. If they can eat tauren, they can eat other things, such as the same kind. If it really reaches that point , A hungry and crazy living creature can definitely do this kind of thing.

Rogge suddenly said: "In the past, when the Undead Empire encountered such a situation, it directly launched the natural disaster of the undead. Instead of killing the same kind, it is better to send them to death."

Everyone from the Abyss of Rest looked at Lisa, because Ferrin almost made the same decision. If the Lich Dungeon couldn't solve the food crisis, Ferrin was going to launch the undead natural disaster.

Anthony continued: "Although there is a gap, can we do nothing? We can completely implement food control, crack down on hoarding, organize production recovery, and find alternatives to non-staple food. The 5% hard gap, as long as we manage it well , can be completely compensated for.”

"As long as you control it well, the hard gap can be completely filled, but all of this can only be achieved under efficient organization and unified distribution. If you are only satisfied with resisting the enemy outside the border, it is equivalent to giving up the territory of Uz For those poor peasants, this figure may be as high as 25%, based on the five million population of the Principality of Uz, it is likely that 1.2 million people will die."

Meisha's legs are weak, this number is too big, she can't stand still just thinking about it, so many people died because of her... none of her business.

Meisha struggled and said, "But if I send troops into the territory of Uz, my loyal soldiers will die. What if I fail?"

Yo, you are very clear-headed, and you are a qualified leader.

Anthony nodded approvingly: "You should have this concern, but it doesn't exist now, because we support you."

While speaking, Anthony shrank behind Ange and patted his chest vigorously. In that posture, it was obvious that "we" included Ange.

Ange didn't want to fight, so it would affect farming, so he slipped his neck with his hands behind his back, and carried him back.

Anthony shrank his neck and smiled.

"Hahahahaha..."

"Ahahahahaha!!"

Seeing Anthony deflated, everyone laughed like crazy, especially Negris, who laughed the most exaggeratedly: "I'll make you laugh all day long, Anger won't let you do that."

Anthony scratched his head embarrassingly, and laughed himself.

Meisha was terrified watching from the sidelines, is it okay for everyone to laugh like this? Won't His Majesty the Pope be angry? Why is it that among this group of people, the status of acting pope is not very easy to use?

After laughing, it might be rare to see Anthony deflated. Luther was in a good mood, stood up and patted the long sword and said, "Master Anthony, I will help you. I and my dragon-pattern steel core, mithril filigree magic pattern, and I forged it with soil. Ouch, Ouch, Sword Helps You"

Before he could finish speaking, Luther was beaten so hard that he ran away, but he still read the name of the sword while running.

Lightning also patted his chest with his hoof: "Master Anthony, I will help you too."

After a lot of joking around, everyone simply went to pack their luggage and organize their equipment. Seeing them like that, it was better to say that they were bored and wanted to find something to do than to help Anthony.

Looking at this 'army', Mesa couldn't help but be moved. She knows the strength of Uz Principality very well. She has been a neighbor for so many years.

With the help of An Ge's subordinates, the Principality of Us can indeed be taken at a small cost.

In this way, I don't need to hoard heavy troops on the border, and don't need to allocate food relief. As Anthony said, there is a shortage of food in the entire plane, and Mesa is no exception.

The Principality of Rosa is not a grain-producing country. It used to buy food, and the food pressure was very high. But because of this, several large grain storage fortresses were built, and the food was relatively sufficient.

But who knows when this disaster will pass? No matter how big the grain fortress is, it can't last for a few years without going in or out.

Once and for all is the best way, and this time it was Us who drove the refugees to her first, and she was forced to do it. As long as she played the banner of saving the refugees, she would occupy the moral high ground, and no one could condemn her.

Gritting his teeth, he did it.

After discussing carefully with Anthony, Meisha agreed to raise troops in two days, and then went back to prepare.

After Mesa left, Negris flew over, bent his short claws, and elbowed Anthony, asking, "What are you trying to do? Don't tell me that you are really kind, you want to save those The landless peasants of Uz?"

Anthony spread his hands: "Of course, I am such a kind person, otherwise?"

After the joke was over, Anthony said solemnly: "On the one hand, I want to install nails in the western parish. The positions of Uz and Rosa are very important. Secondly, Uz's actions are too bad. Land annexation, and if everyone does like them, the common people in the west will no longer have a way to live, either become slaves or starve to death."

"Oh, you are afraid of causing a chain reaction, and it will be troublesome for everyone to follow suit." Negris suddenly understood why, in the midst of his busy schedule, Anthony asked Ange to summon him after hearing that they were in the Principality of Rosa. come over.

It is not easy for Anthony to come here. First, he has to be teleported to the Abyss of Rest, then sent to the kingdom of heaven through the ladder of the kingdom of heaven, and then come back through the portal of the kingdom of heaven. After several turns, the light travel fee will cost several times more.

"Now the entire plane is standing on the activated magic egg, and there may be an explosion at any time. After the news of Us spreads, it will easily form a demonstration effect. Those unscrupulous landlords and nobles will see it, hey, it can still be like this What? Not only can we eliminate the excess population, but we can also annex land, obtain a large amount of cheap labor, and drive out refugees to make our opponents poor.”

"My diocese has already had such signs. I killed three grand dukes and one king, and no one dares to do so. Then tell the adults for me that I am short of food."

Negris curled his lips: "Say it yourself."

Anthony had no choice but to walk over by himself, and said a few words to Anghor. Anghor stood up, screamed a few times excitedly, and summoned the little angel, the zombie, and others.

Negris was stunned, and when Anthony came back, he couldn't help asking in a low voice, "What did you tell him? Isn't he going to farm? Why are you so excited?"

Anthony spread his hands: "I told my lord that there is a large salt lake in the Principality of Us. The composition of the salt in it is different from the salt we eat. Druids will use them as fertilizer to replace plant ash."

"Pfft..." Negris spat out, looked up and down Anthony in shock, and said:

"I understand now. You just did it on purpose. When you told me about the potash salt lake, Ange would never refuse, but you didn't. You purposely sought out the shit. Although it was embarrassing and embarrassing, it also brought you closer. The distance from everyone, even Luther Lightning is willing to joke with you, my God, I kind of understand why you can climb to a high position every time you are reborn."

Anthony smiled slightly, and said inscrutablely: "A wise man once said that even if you want to make amazing achievements, you have to do it as a 'one of your own'."

"Which wise man said it? Why haven't I heard of it?" Negris frowned, and there are wise men's slang that the god of knowledge has never heard of?

Anthony proudly said: "That wise man is called Piero."

"Sangbada, that's what you said yourself." Negris was angry.

Anthony is actually quite embarrassing, he is too far away from the inner circle, and his identity is very sensitive, which separates everyone from him, and after a long time, there will be a gap.

That is to say, the circle with Ang as the core is not a circle of intrigue. His relationship with Ang is also a solid faith connection, otherwise rumors would have been flying everywhere. I have seen too many of them over the years, and I feel most comfortable staying here with Ange.

But you can't stop trying to build a good relationship just because you're too comfortable and don't care, right? Occasionally a little embarrassment can bring everyone closer. When it comes to building relationships, he is quite proud.

But Anthony's pride was gone by evening.

"What? Your lord broke into the Uz Principality and wiped out Uz's army? How many people did he bring? Three? Little angels, zombies and lightning? Add potted saplings? I... Is my plan too complicated?"

...

Grand Duke Lenat of Uz led his troops and drove the refugees along the way. Occasionally, they came across corpses lying dead on the side of the road.

The Grand Duke's deputy said hesitantly: "It's not good to just throw them aside like this. If they become undead, it's not good to harass them everywhere."

Lennart waved his hand indifferently: "Don't be afraid, you are not afraid of being alive, you are afraid of death, it's just undead, just kill it again."

The deputy who may have read many knight novels disagreed, but he didn't say anything, and changed the subject to: "Is it really possible to break into Rosa's territory by driving so many people? If Rosa closes the border, we will all be cavalry , In the mountains, they cannot defeat those infantry soldiers.”

Lennart smiled slightly: "Do you think your Grand Duke is the kind of playboy who doesn't understand anything but only steals beautiful women?"

The deputy's eyes widened in shock: Isn't it?

Lennart coughed in embarrassment: "Although I have done some ridiculous things occasionally, but not this time, you ask everyone, if these untouchables are driven away this time, will everyone have a lot of fertile land in their homes?"

"Yes, long live the Grand Duke! Swear to serve the Grand Duke!" The accompanying cavalry shouted excitedly.

If you want everyone to serve you, you must feed them well first. This is the famous saying of Leinart’s grandfather, the previous Grand Duke of Us. Leinart obeyed it very well, so even though he is ignorant and behaves absurdly , unrestrained, but there is a loyal, obedient cavalry regiment.

The deputy also shouted excitedly because he got more points.

"Slay Rosa, I will give you more land, titles, and more slaves. I heard that Rosa's family has beautiful women, so we will divide all the women in her family." Lennart shouted.

"Fen! Seal! Fen! Seal! Long live the Grand Duke! Uwuwuwu!!!" The cavalrymen's morale was boosted, and they screamed strangely while pinching their throats.

In the strange cry, there is a long "ah"~~~

The adjutant saw the place where the dead body had just been kicked off the roadside. The grass there seemed to have moved a bit, but upon careful inspection, nothing was found.

Lennart continued: "Rosa is not afraid of closing the border, you know Rosa's new Grand Duke Robert, he is a commoner who married into the Grand Duke's mansion, the nobles under him are not convinced, so Robert contacted me, hoping I can support him and he will open the door for me when the time comes."

The adjutant's eyes widened in shock, no wonder Leinart was full of confidence, and this was the reason for his daring.

Lennart was about to say something proudly, but suddenly felt annoyed, and couldn't help cursing: "Who is that screaming? Shut up!"

Everyone didn't pay attention to the 'ah' at first, but after the cavalry's strange shouts and cheers slowly stopped, the 'ah' became more and more clear. Originally ordinary ah ah ah, as long as you don't yell in your ears, it won't make people irritated.

But this "ah" sound makes people feel very irritable, like scraping a wire in your soul.

Everyone looked in the direction where the voice came from, and the adjutant even got on his horse and looked further, but what he saw made him gasp: "My... Grand Duke, okay, it seems to be true. It's the 'ghost' calling, undead... undead!"

Lennart also immediately stood on the horseback and looked into the distance. On the hillside in the distance, two translucent fluorescent figures raised their necks and howled there. Behind them, there were three figures, One of the figures kept releasing magic.

Around these people, figures from all over the mountains and plains rushed over.

Ange's cleansing technique directly penetrated into the body of the corpse without even emitting light, which would save effort because there were too many corpses around.

Ange's king arrived, and with the expansion of the two howling banshees, the range increased dramatically, and he summoned all the corpses that died along the way.

I'm afraid that Lennart would never have imagined that he would drive the refugees to die, and those refugees who died would turn into ghosts demanding their lives.

Originally, it was fine to rush over and hack to death, but Ange remembered Anthony's plan: don't expose the traces of undead creatures and foreign forces, otherwise this drama of resisting tyranny will become an alien invasion or a natural disaster of the undead.

So Ange healed each corpse to make them alive.

All over the mountains and plains, living figures who are not afraid of death and pain are running towards Lenart's cavalry.

The banshee's wail suddenly changed, a voice that penetrated the heart and soul, as if whispering in the ear.

I've stopped breathing--

But I'm not dead already—

Soul flame replaces life—

Must flee before the sun of dawn--

...

Those living corpses rushed into Lennart's cavalry formation as if they had been slapped with chicken blood. The adjutant was even more horrified to see that the corpse that was kicked into the roadside just now got up and turned towards him. Jump over.

As long as everyone is killed, no one will know that they were killed by undead creatures.
