Chapter 320: Elven Population

Faro found Dane, there was something important to discuss. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The demographic problem of the elves.

Now, the elven population of Orinadus is actually quite large, with a scale of more than 2,000 or nearly 3,000 people.

But the proportion of the population in Orinedu is very unhealthy.

Within Dane's second wing, one brigade of rangers, two brigades of sword dancers, and a brigade of Nightblade Panthers who were still in training and were preparing for a brigade, which totaled 1,200 men, plus a number of other troops, such as the mage team and the priests, the future Templars, there were nearly 1,500 elves to serve in Dane's army alone.

Then, excluding some young elves and old elves who are unable to work, and the remaining elves are young and middle-aged, counting both men and women, how many more can there be?

Not to mention, Dane's Enchantment Workshop and Alchemy Workshop require those who have a certain amount of magical knowledge to be able to work in them. And when it comes to things related to arcane magic, elves are indeed more talented than humans.

As a result, almost all of the people working in these two workshops are elves.

What else the population? Almost completely gone.

This situation is very worrying, especially for Faro, the consul of Orinedus.

He was blunt: "The way we are developing now is overdrawing the potential of Orinedu. At present, the rate of population growth is disproportionate to our rate of development, and if it continues, the development of Orinedu will be limited - from the limitation of population. ”

This was Faro's warning, and Dane was aware of the seriousness of the problem. But he didn't have a solution.

Now, there is certainly no way to rely on natural growth for the population development of Orinedu. Otherwise, with the fertility rate of the elves, there are still the long years it takes for the young elves to grow into adulthood, which is not at all acceptable to Orin, who is running on the train of rapid development.

The only thing that can be relied on is the Divine Guide Tree Tower.

The population growth rate of the Divine Guide Tree Tower is actually not slow. If the other elven colonies were to add a few dozen people a week, and a normal proportion of the population was young and middle-aged, young and old, the elven leaders would probably be able to laugh like crazy.

But for Dane, such a rate of population growth simply cannot keep up.

So what else can we do to increase the population?

There is only one answer: to introduce it from outside the territory.

And this is the most important purpose for Faro to come to Dane.

"Didn't General Pehince say that she had fled from Nancy's court in the Central Mountains?"

"Hmmm......"

Dane knew what Faro was talking about.

When Peshin and Cecilia came to Cormyra from the sea on the Golden Leaf with about 300 elves, "called by the Father", they said that the court of Nancy seemed to have changed a lot.

The undead, who were supposed to be regarded as mortal enemies by the elves, for some reason, established a base around the dark forest where Nancy's court was located. The upper echelons of Nancy's court must have been aware of this, but they were indifferent, and even punished Pehinth and Cecilia very harshly for those who attacked the undead without taking orders.

According to this situation, although I don't know what happened in the dark forest of the Central Mountain Range, but thinking about it, Pehin and Cecilia, as well as the group of elven refugees they led, could definitely not be alone, and there must have been similar things before or after them.

So, Falo wondered, could he try to introduce the elven population of Nancy's court to Orinedu from this perspective?

You must know that the Nancy Royal Court is an elven kingdom with a population of one million, with 100,000 soldiers, although they rarely leave the forest, but in the entire eastern part of the continent, they are a powerful force that cannot be ignored. At least, the several countries around the dark forest, whether it is the Duchy of Florence or the Kingdom of Pudri, are no match for the Nancy elves, and the only one who can really stabilize these elves is the Grand Duchy of Victoria in the north of the forest.

If it were an ordinary person, even if there was a big change within the Nancy royal court, it would not be so easy to introduce the elven population from the forest. However, Dane is different.

Orine is a forest territory, with a genuine tree of life that is regarded as sacred by the elves and its mother, and there are more than 2,000 elves living here, and as a lord, Dain, although a human, is an oracle recognized by Shilo's father - as Cecilia and Eslor can attest to as high priests of the elves.

Moreover, Pehin was once the ranger general of Nancy's court, and Cecilia was also the priest who controlled the so-called 'Peacock Forest Temple' in the forest, and the identities of the two of them should still have a certain appeal among the Nancy elves.

Anyway, it's a very feasible plan.

Of course, Dane knew what Faro meant, but he also had concerns in his heart.

When Pehin and Cecilia came, they only brought three hundred elves, and they made a lot of trouble.

By bringing dozens of elves who are completely loyal to Dane from the Divine Guide Tree Tower every week, it is not easy to dilute the three hundred elves that Pehin and them brought into a small part, and if a large number of Nancy elves are brought in again, Dane does not know what the territory will become at that time.

Faro knew Dain's concerns, he spread his hands and said, "Dain, there must be pros and cons to bringing in the elven population from Nancy. I'm just going to bring up the dilemma we are facing right now, and the possible solutions, but it's up to you to decide what to do. ”

Dane nodded and said, "I see what you mean, it's a risky decision, but I think we can do it." ”

"Huh?" Faro was a little surprised, he really didn't expect Dane to figure it out so quickly.

"Be prepared to welcome the alien elven population, and be prepared to divide and assimilate them. As for how to bring in those elven populations...... I'll go with Cecilia and Pehin about it. ”

Faro smiled rather happily, "Yes, Dane, I'll be ready for anything." Don't worry, I promise that as long as the Nancy elves come, the number of people is not too large, and the number does not exceed our original population, then there will be no chaos! ”
