Chapter 212: Ordonge and the New Era
Through a terrible war like never before, humanity has defeated the orcs and expelled them completely.
The remnants of the orcs took the Falling Hammer Tribe as the core, and under the leadership of the Great Shaman Zhuo Li, the great shaman of the Falling Hammer Tribe and the only one of the existing orcs who had studied the way of the shaman to the fourth stage, they went to the farther southwest.
Judging from the current situation, it will be difficult for the two races to have any other communication for at least two or three hundred years.
However, although the war was won, the entire Chirui region was also in ruins by a series of major battles. Even the Hammer Tribe, which has not been affected by the war, is no exception.
They set fire to their cities as soon as they migrated, taking with them almost everything they could. Therefore, today's Chirui area is simply a mess.
But as the future rulers of this region, Black Sword and Purple Thistle didn't care about this, and were even full of joy. After all, no matter how shabby and messy it is, it belongs to them now.
Yes, under the canonization of the archbishopric bell, their regime was officially recognized. They became the rulers of the region, and their people were the nearly 200,000 human slaves who had been freed from the war.
So they gave their regime a new name - Ortung.
This is the name of the orc language, which means "the liberated and the liberated". The name is very much in line with the land and the people who live in it.
Then the Ortung people took the fortress to the east of Chirui as the core of their power, and they called that fortress the castle of Black Thistle. With the belief in the true God (that is, the belief in Liang Tian) as the only legitimate faith, he became the new master of this land.
As for the huge army formed by the tribe and Xihe, they had no other interest in this "desolate" land, thousands of miles away in their front yard.
Because whether it is Xihe or the tribe, now all of them are vast and sparsely populated. Land or something, in this day and age, is really worthless.
So on the seventh day after the capture of Star Bow City, this huge army side also set out on the way back with their heads held high under the leadership of Bell and others.
They gained glory and wealth through war, and many were even blessed by the gods to become Templars and tribal warriors with both face and depth.
With such a rich harvest, it is natural to return to your homeland to show off and brag about it. This is like "wealth does not return home, like a night walk in fine clothes".
If you can't show off, success will bring much less fulfillment.
Therefore, the legion went extremely fast on the way back. They rode their own horses, and then used the large number of wildebeest captured in the war as a tool for camel transport.
So don't look at the large number of legions, but because there are more livestock, they can walk sixty or seventy miles a day.
In this way, a few days later, when they returned to Xihe Xiping City, which they used as the starting point, Xilan, the kingdom of Xihe, personally greeted them here. And then a grand celebration was held.
"Our enemies, the evil faithless orcs, they and their kingdoms have been utterly defeated and destroyed. Therefore, from today onwards, our lives will only get better and better, and our country will only become stronger!"
At the banquet, the Archbishop of the Divine Servant Sect, who liked the speech, said this sentence almost proclaimingly. Like a prophecy, in the following days, Xihe and the tribes, including Otonge in the far west, they all entered a golden age of rapid development.
There is no need for war, there is no need to guard against the enemy, and the vast wealth of society does not need to be endlessly invested in the military field. Therefore, at the same time as the population is booming, all kinds of new industries have also sprung up.
As a result, great progress has been made in the cultural aspect. Even in the second year after the complete victory over the orc kingdom, there was drama.
Because people are singing about the great war, the children who worship the heroes are also imitating the legendary heroes of that war. So much so that drama was catalyzed in advance in human society.
However, the drama that has just been born is still very primitive, there is no division of labor on the stage, and the technical aspects are very superficial. However, as a new thing, this new cultural and entertainment activity is still very popular.
In just two or three years, drama has become a national entertainment. The Divine Servant Sect couldn't help but rub off on the heat, and choreographed a lot of dramas for themselves that preached religion and advocated how great and benevolent God is, that is, Liang Tian.
As a god, he is very embarrassed to see this, but I have to say that this kind of propaganda is indeed useful. As a result, believers become more religious, and the power of faith is more reapable.
Then the minutes and seconds continued to pass, and the population of the three regions of Xihe and the tribe and the Ortung became more and more populous. In the blink of an eye, another 20 years have passed, and the population of these three regions has more than doubled.
Yes, there are now seven or eight hundred thousand people in the tribe, and Xihe has broken through the two million mark. Even Ordonger has a population of more than 400,000 at this time.
And because the power of faith can feed back, the average life expectancy today can be said to have changed dramatically compared with 20 years ago.
Twenty years ago, whether it was a tribe or a Xihe. The average life expectancy of believers is in their forties. At that time, the medical and health conditions were extremely poor, and the witches who could perform healing magic were of high status and few people. So the average life expectancy of people is very low.
But today, the average life expectancy of humans in the three regions of Tribe, Xihe and Ortung has even exceeded 60 years. It can be said that it has reached the level of modern history of the earth in ancient times.
However, medical and sanitary conditions have not improved, and have even regressed.
But nowadays, no one cares about that. After all, as long as you have a devout faith, then through the return of faith, it will not take long for ordinary minor illnesses to be cured automatically.
In this way, the poor and low-income people will naturally not spend extra money to see a doctor. Because of this, the profession of doctors is almost extinct at the bottom.
Now, only the wealthy go to the doctor occasionally. And it won't be publicized, because in today's society, when you get sick and go to the doctor, you are unknowingly labeled as unreligious.
It is for this reason that, even after 20 years, the world's medical and sanitation conditions have not improved, but have regressed. But it's the profession of a doctor, which is now withering......
