Chapter 174: Preparing for a Rainy Day (Adding More to Reading Friends' Words)

The Swamp of Despair is different, after the source is cut off, although it will not restore the old view of the Jiangnan Plain in a short time, but as long as it takes a year and a half, the water level can be reduced by six or seven percent.

At that time, the land that can be reclaimed in the city and fertile land will be two or three percent, and in a short period of time, it will be enough for the Eternal Night Group Army.

After all, at its peak, the area of the Jiangnan Plain was only much larger than that of the Manyu military leader.

What's more, it has been soaked in the swamp for so many years, and under the nourishment of natural fertilizers such as rotting grass and trees, fish and shrimp carcasses, I don't know how fertile it is, as long as God doesn't deliberately find fault, a bumper harvest of ten years and eight years can be expected.

"The Spring Thunder Plan, is it a slowdown? Our preparations in other aspects are far from each other, and once they are activated, they will force us onto a single-plank bridge, and we can only move forward and not retreat. Marshall asked with a hint of exhortation.

When the Spring Thunder Plan was first formulated, the expectation of eight to ten years was far more than an estimate of the growth of the Eternal Night Legion, but also many calculations and considerations.

For example, the estimation of the food reserves of the Eternal Night Group Army, the estimation of army training, and so on.

According to the original plan, the Eternal Night Army would have completed the reclamation of the ancient river channel of Jacob by then, squeezing the output of this land to the greatest extent.

At that time, even if there were consecutive bad years, the Eternal Night Army had at least enough food in their hands for two or three years, plus the reclamation of other mountainous areas, even if there were changes on the side of the Swamp of Despair, they would have enough room for maneuver.

But now, the Eternal Night Army has just obtained a second wave of bumper harvest, barely solving the problem of food and clothing for most of the soldiers and civilians, and for strategic considerations, it has even sold a part of the grain to the slave rebel army, and the surplus grain is far from being talked about.

Most of the military and civilians have just tasted the sweetness of the large amount of arable land, and now if the Spring Thunder Plan is implemented, the internal resistance is the greatest.

How could Sean not understand these truths, and said with a worried expression: "The situation is developing in an unfavorable direction, I am afraid that it will not be long before there will be a new wave of residents, and we can't turn them away, right?" So, prepare in advance, we will have one more choice at that time, if possible, I don't want to start this plan in advance." ”

"Are you worried about the beast attack getting worse?" Marshall understood Sean's biggest concern.

The most enlightened and active group of Andes people have been almost divided between the Eternal Night Army and the Walled City Alliance, and the rest are scattered in the mountains, living in isolation and poverty.

Self-contained, self-sufficient, conservative and xenophobic are their common problems.

The Eternal Night Group had barely established a relatively fragile connection with them with familiar faces and a large number of cheap goods that were in dire need of cheap goods.

The Eternal Night Army originally planned to use this fragile relationship to infiltrate and win over those mountain people little by little, so as to achieve the goal of assimilating them, so as to increase the number of its own people.

This process is quite long, without three or five years of water grinding work, it is difficult to see actual results, and everything is carried out imperceptibly, and the Eternal Night Army itself will not feel too much pressure.

However, the large-scale beast attack completely disrupted their plans, and in order to maintain the image and relationship that had been built up so hard, the Eternal Night Army had to intervene by force.

Even so, some stubborn and conservative mountain people are hostile to the mountain patrol guards.

It is believed that with the passage of time, this attitude will be fundamentally reversed, because the beast attacks will become more and more intense, forcing the mountain people to take the initiative to get out of the mountains, and the Eternal Night Army will be their only choice.

It's not that Marshall underestimated the Walled City Alliance, even under the auspices of Ben Hebrew, the Walled City Alliance has changed quite a lot and become more closely connected, but Ben Hebrew's own knowledge has limited his gaze and made him pay more attention to immediate interests.

Not to mention the other mountain people in Andes Mountain, even the leaders of the Walled City Alliance itself, he didn't take care of it all, he was completely self-defending, Marshall was very suspicious of the high-level of the Walled City Alliance, did they find any abnormalities in the beast, or was it simply an accident?

According to the current situation, if the development continues, the speed of those mountain people will be greatly improved, not to mention the further deterioration of the situation.

At that time, it will not be the mountain people who will take the initiative to leave the mountain, but will be forced out of the mountain, and there may even be a wave of refugees, and the pressure on the Eternal Night Group Army will increase exponentially.

If you are not careful, a sharp conflict will erupt, adding to the cracks in the monolithic army of the Eternal Night.

Sean didn't answer Marshall's question directly, but his gloomy face was the best answer.

Marshall nodded and said, "I know what to do, and for a while now, I will take the Spring Thunder Plan as a top priority and make other corresponding preparations as soon as possible." ”

"You know this in your heart, and the fewer people who know, the better. Sean admonished.

"I understand, I also participated in the formulation of the confidentiality agreement, and I am familiar with it. Marshall replied with a solemn expression.

"It's good to know!"

Sean and Marshall discussed some relatively trivial matters, and after reaching an agreement, they hurried to their separate things.

Not only Sean is busy, Marshall is also busy, what he needs to keep an eye on is not only a spring thunder plan, but also the plan of the Eternal Night Army, whether it is open or covert, there are not a hundred, but there are also eighty, although not all of them are under Marshall's supervision, but more than 90% will be linked to finance.

Fortunately, from bottom to top, the Eternal Night Army adopts a relatively advanced double-entry accounting method, and some accounts are clear at a glance, otherwise Marshall would have been tired and laid down.

Even so, the financial department he led was expanding again and again, and it would not be long before he had to apply for the establishment of a relatively independent department, just like the Eagle Eye Secret Service and the Military Inspectorate.

At the beginning, the number of people was small, and everyone could stir rice and eat in one pot, but now the Eternal Night Group Army is larger than the ordinary hereditary county territory, and the relatively simple military control at the beginning is naturally not suitable, and it is being withdrawn step by step to form a separate part, first the law and then the government.

Sean is also returning to the medical research base non-stop, which has become his permanent home.

The current medical research base is more like a beast training ground, with beast roars everywhere.

Since the birds and beasts left the Odin Grand Canyon for a hundred kilometers, they have regained their true nature—the nature of beasts.

Including the Super Andes Giant Bear, which was named Little Little by Darnell with a bit of bad taste, it seems that it doesn't feel threatened anymore, and it doesn't follow Darnell like it did at the beginning, it was so obedient at the beginning, purely for self-preservation.

However, the small actions made in the first few times, after being forcibly suppressed by Darnell with strong force, are much more honest, but there is still a long way to go if they want to completely domesticate it.

The Super Andes Giant Bear named Little One is still good, and as for the other beast leaders, they are even more wild, especially the Super Andes Giant Tiger that Tagore has always wanted to domesticate, and his stubborn temperament is a fight with a wild bull, and now he is in a fight with Tagore, one person and one tiger, and he has to fight two fights every day.

According to Tagore's own claims, this is his original art of taming tigers.

Andes Tiger has an unruly temperament, only agrees with the existence that is stronger than himself, and if he wants to tame it, he must subdue it before he can proceed to the second step.

Judging from the current situation, Tagore has a long way to go, and this real Andes Tiger has the temperament to become more and more courageous, and under the sparring of Tagore, the champion knight, its combat effectiveness is increasing day by day.

Not only this giant tiger, but also other mutant beasts, their own potential has not really been tapped.

First, the mutations on their bodies have obviously started for a long time, whether it is those ordinary mutant beasts, or those fierce beast bosses, when fighting, most of them are still the same, and if they are not forced into a dead corner, they can't think of using the magic-like talent that they have just obtained.

And the power of the spell-like talent that is cast alone can be imagined, and the real spell masters in this world often need strong ** to support their combat effectiveness, not to mention those relatively simple spell-like talents, if they are not integrated into the battle, it is difficult to achieve the purpose of turning the tables.

These beasts have become much smarter after being stimulated by the power of magic, and that is also compared to ordinary beasts, far from the level of complex thinking of humans.

Take the prairie wolf that is the most cunning and treacherous, after the special research and comparison of the Institute of Biological Anomalies Research, many things are its biological instincts, real logical thinking, compared with the head dog Barton, there is a distance.

Without the involvement of human factors, they want to completely develop their magic-like talents and integrate them into their instincts, but they are afraid that it will take several generations of accumulation and teaching.

Now Tagore has helped the Andes giant tiger in this aspect in disguise, and the gap between one person and one tiger is too big, just like the champion knight devil training program that was launched at the beginning, with strong pressure and actual combat, forcing progress.

At first, it may just be used unconsciously, but after more times, it will naturally become a conscious use, and after a long time, it will be integrated into your own instincts.

The process is not much different from knight cultivation.

This Andes Giant Tiger's magic-like talent is a bit similar to rage, after opening, both strength and speed have been improved to a certain extent, but there is no specific improvement, but as a species with no obvious shortcomings, this magic-like talent may be the most suitable for it.

Once activated, it is like entering a state of explosion, and the combat power soars.

Second, their physical condition has not completely stabilized, ** it is not that the balloon is blown up, but their size has certainly become larger, and neither muscle strength nor bone strength has kept up.

This is something that takes a lot of nutrients and time, little by little.

Again, if there is no human intervention, if they want to reach the top, the time they need will be recorded over the years, and some will not even have the opportunity to reach the peak in their lifetime.

But now, with the sufficient, reasonable and nutritious food provided by the Institute of Biological Anomalies and the training of human supervision, they are rapidly entering the peak state of post-mutation, and this process itself is the process of research by the Institute of Biological Anomalies.

After returning to the medical research base, Sean walked around and headed straight for the newly built stables and horse farm.

After the beasts were transported back to the medical research base, they were sorted and housed.

When they were outside the Odin Grand Canyon, carnivorous herbivores were able to mix together without incident, purely because of unknown high-frequency signals.

Now, if you dare to keep them together, it won't take much time, and there won't be a few left.

Although Sean didn't take action to catch the mutant beast himself, he also got one afterwards.

In fact, it's not that whoever captured the mutant beast in the first place belongs to whoever catches it.

The Eternal Night Army is a militarized management force, how can the management be so loose and casual?

At most, they have a lot of contributions, and according to merit, they have the right of first choice, including those champion knights.

Of course, Darnell is an exception, after all, he is not a member of the Eternal Night Army, he is purely for help, as long as the other party wants to, small personal items that belong to him.

However, he was rejected by Darnell and given to the Eternal Night Army, not because of how high he was, but in the Jacob Military State, he is now alone, and the church is still built with the help of the Eternal Night Army, and it is difficult to support himself, let alone feed such a behemoth.

Besides, he wasn't good at it, and he didn't have that much time to train it, so handing it over to the Biological Anomaly Research Institute of the Eternal Night Army would be more conducive to its growth.

Even Tagore did not have the right to the Andes Giant Tiger, but assisted the Institute of Biological Anomalies in experimental training, and if he wanted to obtain it, he still needed the meritorious deeds of the Eternal Night Army.

Tagore's weakness that Sean has been looking for has been unexpectedly obtained, and fools can see that Tagore really loves the mutant tiger, and he can't wait to eat and live with it.

In order to tie him a little more firmly, the authority of the entire Tiger Park of the Institute of Biological Anomalies was opened to him, and now he is happy to think about it, and the bond with the Eternal Night Group Army is deeper, and it is undoubtedly much easier to let him contribute in the future.

Lyric!

Shaun heard a neighing sound from afar.

A war horse, which was a head and a half taller than ordinary war horses, was biting left and kicking right, driving all the war horses close to it on both sides three or four meters away, and proudly monopolizing the trough in front of him.

Seeing this situation, Sean couldn't help but laugh and scold "idiot".

The war horse that was violently driven into the corner by it was not to compete with it for food, but a carefully selected mare in estrus, wanting to get close to it, and borrowing some seeds by the way.

I didn't expect this guy, not to mention the amorous feelings, and thought that everyone, no, all horses were greedy foodies like him.

However, according to the Institute of Biological Anomalies research, it has this reaction, which is normal, because it is only three years old, still a child, and the urge to reproduce is not strong.

However, people don't have to worry about being a single horse at all, and it can definitely be called the rich and handsome among horses.

Needless to say, before he became an adult, he already stood out from the crowd, and I believe that with a more reasonable nutritional combination and mutated magic-like talents, complementing each other, it will stimulate all its potential, and go further, at that time, it was definitely a monster among the war horses. 8)
