Chapter 557: A Good Start
"What?" As soon as Isabel's words came out, not only those orcs, but even the Terran soldiers who came with them were stunned, with a look of surprise, even they thought that Isabel had brought them to use force against this group of orcs, not to mention that these underage orcs were exterminated, at least they were expelled from the country....
"Plus.... Join you? Bane swallowed, and was the first to react and asked.
"Yes....." Isabel nodded.
Bane looked back at the people around him, a group of leaders of the remnants of other tribes gathered around to discuss with each other, and after about half an hour, after a group of adult orcs nodded with a tangled face, Bane came out as a representative and continued to negotiate: "We have discussed, if we can ensure that these children are not short of food, we are willing to be slaves, but we cannot separate us from these children, we must at least know their safety at all times....."
As soon as Bane's words came out, a group of human soldiers nodded and said secretly: I see.....
It turns out that the adults want to take these orcs as slaves, and plan to use these children as hostages, although it sounds a little despicable, but it is a reasonable method!
They didn't have the slightest sympathy for these orcs, in the past, every time these orcs invaded the northwest, they would take the opportunity to plunder the humans who had to withdraw to the city in the future to work as coolies in the grassland, and the humans who were plundered were basically exhausted to death, and now it was their turn, and everyone had a feeling that the way of heaven was reincarnated.
And this kind of elite orcs are no better than those inferior goblins and gnolls, it is difficult to successfully take them into slavery, and it is difficult to even capture them alive, most of them will directly commit suicide in order not to be humiliated when they are defeated, and it is quite emotional to think that there will be so many elite orcs as slaves in the future....
But while the soldiers were happy, Isabel shook her head.
Seeing this, Bane and the others clenched their weapons with gloomy faces: "Humans, don't get carried away, we are already willing to accept humiliation for the survival of our children, and it is our bottom line to let them eat their stomachs, if not, then let's fight!" ”
As he spoke, a group of orcs also clenched their weapons one after another, and their eyes showed their determination to fight to the death!
"Inviting you to join is not to ..... you in a slave way" Isabel shook her head, "I sincerely hope that you will join and become a part of this city, and every one of your children will enjoy the same treatment as the residents here, with plenty of food, sheltered houses and warm quilts, and you will do the same, join Gondolin's army, become our soldiers, and you will also enjoy everything a soldier should have, including military promotion!" ”
As soon as the words "this ......" came out, everyone was stunned again, they didn't expect such a result at all!
"Lord Duke!!" Behind him, Wesker suddenly frowned, he also had some contact with those orcs these days, although he felt that these orcs actually had a very good personality, bold, generous, and did not like intrigue, and the contact was even much simpler than that of ordinary humans, and he actually didn't want these guys to become lowly slaves, but he never thought that these people could become a part of their city....
As for those humans who don't get along with the orcs day and night, they can't understand it even more, after all, in their countless years of memory, the orcs are all enemies!!
Although Isabel didn't look back at this time, she could still feel the skepticism and unacceptability of the human soldiers, but she knew that this matter had to be implemented today.
In fact, if it's just these orcs in front of you, it's the best way to make them slaves, after all, it's the soldiers of Gondolin who need to be encircled the most, but considering the future situation, you can't do this!
If these orcs become slaves, what will happen to the population that has been brought in from the northern steppes in the future? All as slaves? Judging from the future development, I am afraid that a large number of people will be orcs in the future, and it is obviously unstable to use a small number of humans to rule the huge beast population as slaves, and this unstable nature will become more and more serious as the power grows, and the social contradictions will become more and more difficult to repair because of racial discrimination and classification in the later stage, and this racial superiority system will be carried out now, and what about the alien world in the future after supplementing the other population?
These days, Isabel has seen a lot of cases of the development of federal civilization, and the types of civilization of the federation are not without successful examples of the racial class system, among which the demonic civilization is a complete system of racial blood superiority, but this model of the racial class system is obviously not suitable for the development concept of the Zu'an civilization, after all, the Zu'an civilization is to encourage genetic evolution, so that everyone has a kind of princely general Xiangning has a kind of spirit to struggle and change their destiny!
So from the very beginning, Isabel had to strangle this racial concept in the cradle, so that everyone would dilute their racial identity and strive for genetic evolution!
"Are you serious?" Bane was stunned, obviously still a little incredulous.
"Naturally.....," Isabel nodded solemnly, "With the disparity in strength we have now, there is no need to deceive you with lies...."
That's also ....
Many orcs looked at each other and nodded, now in this situation, a group of them are really meat on the chopping board, the other party can cut it however they want, there is no need to deceive them with lies.
"My lord, how can this be?" Finally, there was opposition in the troops ....
"Why not?" Isabel turned to look at the general who had spoken.
Because of Isabel's prestige, the questioning future was a little weak when the other party looked at it, but finally plucked up the courage to say: "He.... They are orcs, how can humans live with orcs? ”
"Human...... Isabel bowed her head slightly, and then slowly untied her armor, revealing the white scales on her shoulders, under the sun, the scales were shining, and people were dazzling to see, and some orcs from the Augur Plains were stunned, and said secretly: It turns out that she has also mutated.
"Can we still be called human beings today?" Isabel sighed.
"This ....." All the soldiers stiffened when they heard this, and they all looked at the mutated parts of their bodies, either bear paws, or snake scales, or wings like birds, and now this appearance is indeed a bit far-fetched to say that it is human.
"Don't be obsessed with .....the soldiers of the previous status," Isabel said in a positive voice: "Today's world is suffering from unprecedented calamities, from the information brought by these orcs, we can know that the same terrible things are happening in the northern steppes as our empire, all living beings are suffering, what we have to do now is not to dwell on the previous hatred, let alone to exclude dissidents, think about it, soldiers, you have come all the way to this city, because the physical mutation has not been accepted by the residents of this city, Why are we united now? ”
The soldiers were stunned when they heard this, and after half a while, a few generals replied respectfully: "Because of you, my lord, it is you who unite us ......"
"Not .....," Isabel shook her head.
In the face of this denial, all the soldiers were stunned again.
"Even without me, you will eventually bridge the barriers and unite together, maybe you will have to suffer a little more setbacks and tribulations, but the result is certain, you have to ask why, because whether it is you who have mutated and fled, or the local residents of this city, you have a common goal....."
"Uh.... What the? All the soldiers looked at Isabel and asked, stunned.
"Live!!" Isabel's voice became powerful: "You have come all the way here, you have endured in silence in the face of doubts and discrimination, and the local people have overcome their barriers and finally come together, all because you want to live, to survive in this catastrophe, in this damned world!" Or let yourself, or ....." Isabel looked at the orc children: "Or let yourself be your descendants..."
Everyone froze in place, and the orcs who could understand human language were also stunned, and it was clear that Isabel's words hit the softest point in their hearts, and it was also the most true wish.
Everyone was moved by the words Isabel smiled: "For our most humble wish, please give up the previous racial concept, give up the previous grievances, the world is getting worse and worse now, we have to combine all the forces that can be combined to survive together, I know that this process may not be so easy, but I hope you can try, for yourself and for the people you care about..."
Everyone was immediately moved, the orcs looked at each other after hearing this, and the humans also looked at each other, obviously, although they were moved by these words, it was not so easy to accept for a while, Isabel was not in a hurry, she knew that everyone needed time to digest, and she also believed that in the end, both sides would make the right choice.
Finally, in silence, I don't know how long, Wesker slowly withdrew his sword, and was the first to step towards the orc camp.
Seeing that a human took the initiative to come over, all the orcs were stunned, revealing a look of vigilance.
After walking to a distance of more than ten meters, Wesker finally took a deep breath and said, "I, Wesker, the commander of the Gondolin Garrison Abroad, the former Imperial Lieutenant General..."
After finishing speaking, he quietly waited for a response, and after the orcs looked at each other, Bane, who had finally talked to Wesker the most during this time, slowly stepped forward, beat his chest and made a tribal etiquette: "I, Bane. Ironhoof, the current chief of the Bison Clan....."
As the two solemnly introduced themselves, more and more soldiers slowly moved forward, Isabel was secretly relieved to see this scene, and said with relief: It's really a good start....
