Chapter 479: Delta's Sinda Elves "1/3"
The Elves of Isvel found new land, and each of them burst out with an extremely strong enthusiasm for construction. Because they all understand that the interriver delta area in front of them will be their common home in the future. Everyone is full of enthusiasm for construction to build their own homes. They divide the work according to their occupations, and all of them are building their homes except for the necessary sentry and guard personnel. And Jiang Ning naturally won't be idle and hide behind and let his clansmen work, but he is lazy and doesn't do it, of course he won't do it.
He carefully surveyed the topography and topography around the site where the city was built, and corrected some of the terrain that was wrong and missing. Stand a piece of wood to mark it and write it down carefully on the parchment paper in your hand. Although the elves drink wine and eat meat, they are also vegetarians. Once they begin to settle, the food problem is the first thing to solve, and although they still have enough food, they cannot sit idly by. As a result, Jiangning also began to think about where to plan the land for farming.
Considering that there is a high probability that people will be surrounded in the future, although this probability is extremely low, it cannot be ignored. Once the city is besieged, although they will not lack water, they will definitely lack food. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that your cities have enough food. Thus, the cultivated land, on the outer side of the city walls, was distributed along the river. And he was going to expand a wall as an outer city at a time, with the aim of protecting the land where food was produced. Moreover, the city has two city walls, plus the fortresses distributed in the four corners, as well as the stone throwers, bed crossbows and other defensive tools on the commanding heights of the city that will be built artificially in the future, Jiang Ning is confident that he can easily block the army of 100,000.
It's just that these 100,000 troops are elite and well-trained troops, not the brainless rush of Ulala like the half-orcs. For the orcs, Jiang Ning didn't pay attention to it again, and his eyes were only focused on future enemies such as Morgoth and Sauron. He was not afraid of these orcs who only had brute strength and few brains.
It's just that how to raise the terrain on the gentle terrain, Jiang Ning feels that this is not a big problem at all. When building a castle, you can pile up dirt, gravel, and other things that were excavated together. The Ming Dynasty can pile up a mountain of soil, he does not seek to pile up a mountain, a little in the key place to think that the commanding heights are made, the meaning of meaning.
So, in the evening, Jiang Ning gathered his people and began to tell his plan. The forest at night, where the two rivers meet, is dotted with endless tents and improvised fences made of wood. Although at this time, it is basically impossible for a half-orc to touch in the middle of the night. However, the cautious Jiang Ning still felt that it was not a big mistake to be careful, after all, their city had not even done a good job of laying the foundation. Not to mention a house that can be lived in! The elves' lives are endless, and they have a lot of time to slowly build their cities to be as perfect as possible. Therefore, there is no such thing as a temporary house, or an ugly house built now, which will be demolished and rebuilt in the future. This is what humans do, not the elves. Therefore, during the day, they worked hard to dig the foundations, go up the hill to mine the stones, polish them into strips, and carry them down the river by boat. Subsequently, the forest was cut down until the city they were going to build in the future was completely unsurrounded by forests.
"Tribesmen, in the future, the excavated earth and gravel will be piled up in these parts of the city." On a large parchment design that was spread out, Jiang Ning's finger pointed to the red dots marked on the drawing.
"Your Majesty!" A handsome elf stood up and asked him suspiciously, "Dirt and gravel, piled up here, I don't know what is the use?" Jiang Ning glanced at him, explaining both for him and for everyone, "The place where we built the city is very low, and there is no mountain range to cover it. It is difficult for our cities to fight back effectively if they are faced with weapons such as trebuchets of the enemy. Therefore, I want to artificially raise the ground and build towers on it to place weapons. And, our home in Valinor, was full of minarets. Then, in this new fertile land, we will also build a large number of minarets to recreate our minaret White City! ”
Everyone's emotions were aroused, and their eyes longed for their former home. Obviously, once again I remembered my home in Valinor. However, no one had a look of regret in their eyes. They are single-minded and loyal to his people! Following him back to Middle-earth and building a new home, Jiang Ning naturally had a scale in his heart. At this moment, the chief of the guard in charge of the guard walked in and reported the new situation to Jiang Ning!
"What? Our people? Jiang Ning looked at him in surprise and asked. Hassan, do you mean that this forest is still inhabited by our exiled people in Middle-earth? ”
Hassan's affirmative reply, and he was even a little excited, "Yes, Your Majesty! They are our people who have been displaced for various reasons, and they live in the eastern forests. Jiang Ning nodded, "Let them in, I'll ask them what they say." Hassan nodded, and walked out of the tent, where the Isvel elves, who were discussing in the king's tent in Jiangning, were discussing with each other. It didn't take long for a group of Tellerian elves with long silver hair and blue eyes to walk in. When they saw Jiang Ning, the expression on their faces was extremely excited, "Dear Yiningwei, we finally see you again!" (The Sindar Elves, the Nando Elves, who had been struck off from the Tayleri Clan, settled here.) )
Jiang Ning looked at them happily and asked them to sit down. Then I inquired about their situation carefully, and after asking, I learned that these Sinda and Nando tribes came here for various reasons. At present, they live in the eastern forest of the soon-to-be-established Wesley City, and they didn't notice them at first, but the big movements and fallen trees in the past few days have made them vigilant. In the end, I had the courage to come to inspect, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that this group of uninvited guests who made a big disturbance turned out to be my own people.
Subsequently, these Sinda elves and Nando elves expressed their desire to return, and Jiang Ning naturally agreed. If you ask about their current population, the size of the two races together is nearly 5,000 people! This made Jiang Ning very happy, this is all labor! Now, their number has grown from 28,000 to more than 33,000, far exceeding the size of the population at once, and there are 1,000 more! Subsequently, these Sinda and Nando elves returned to the eastern forest, and told Jiang Ning that early tomorrow morning, they would lead their clansmen to move here, and they would also participate in the construction of the city and build a common home. Jiang Ning naturally agreed, and then the news spread throughout the camp, and everyone knew the news, and the cheers in the entire camp were like earthquakes!
The next day, the Sindar and Nando elves arrived. They drove the carriage, carried large bags and small bags, and dragged their families over. The Elves of Isvel stepped forward to help them, helping them carry their things, drive their wagons, and help set up their tents. In short, there is no raw material at all, and it looks like it is happy.
"Clansmen, welcome home again! You haven't been to Valinor, but we're all from the same ethnic group. Now that your days of wandering and loneliness are gone, welcome home! ”
The elves cheered, and the cheers in the camp rushed into the blue sky! Jiang Ning didn't say any big truth, nor did he chatter at length, the simple and direct core theme, just four words welcome home! This made the new people feel uneasy, and on the way they were worried that the people who had lived in Valinor would look down on them or bully them. Today, it seems that they have not changed, and their attitude towards them is reassuring.
As a result, these newly joined elves took the lead in changing their so-called Sinda and Nando titles to Iswell! Moreover, their leader, the king, was their original leader! This is probably the most important point! So, after setting up their tents and camps, they spontaneously took out their tools to remove rubble, dead wood and fallen leaves from the soil, and to level the land. Then, there were people who followed the procession up the mountain to mine stones, some people who cut wood and built ships to take care of transportation, and some people who went to work on the planned land on both sides of the riverbank, and they worked intensively under the guidance of their own people, and tended to these precious lands! This is what all people understand that these lands will produce countless grains in the future! Although it is not time to plow, everyone is not in a hurry, and their food reserves are still very rich at this stage!
The Sindars, who had just joined the Elven family of Iswell, began to learn the knowledge they had not yet mastered. The whole camp is not only a big family, but also a big construction site, and a university hall! In the way of a master leading an apprentice, he taught them new knowledge content hand in hand. Everything that is about art, calligraphy, painting, architecture, weaponsmithing, etc., is taught in this way. And I'm teaching them a new language and script. After all, to be reunited, the corresponding language naturally has to be learned.
As for why we can communicate with each other without barriers as soon as we meet each other? The reason is naturally because Taylorian and Quinyayu are the lingua franca.
However, when Elway learned about the killings by their relatives, they abolished the use of the Quenya language. This is because this is the lingua franca of the Noldor and the Fanya. I have to say that after the Great Elven Division, the impact of this matter is not only the division of the race. Even the language, the habits of life, and the ideology of the individual have been divided. Although we are all of the same race in the beginning, the elves are the same as the humans of the future in this respect.
They have divided countless nations according to the name of the country, the place of residence, or some matter of custom. Fight each other without mercy. Compared to the countless killings of the human race, in the present and future history of the elves, this kind of killing between relatives has only happened three times!
However, so far, there have not been two remaining family killings. The current world of Middle-earth is also far from being filled with human figures, nor is it filled with subhumans such as hobbits who are related to humans. Now, the protagonists who are active throughout Middle-earth are the Elves and the darkness and evil under Morgoth!
And the topic is relayed here, and I have to mention the battle between the Noldor and Morgoth far away in the west!
