Chapter 37: Campas, the God of War
"Young Patriarch! What do you think of the current development of the tribe in Base Mountain? Harvey was determined to persuade Herbert to warn the Hammer Tribe against Base Mountain.
"Oh? How's that, that's good! Herbert happily replied, "Everyone here can eat enough, everyone doesn't have to worry about being reduced, and those brave warriors in the tribe can still have excellent magic weapons to use, hey, that steel mouth, tsk!" Herbert exclaimed, unable to hide the envy in his eyebrows.
Feelings: This guy has long taken a fancy to the weapons issued by the soldiers of the base mountain tribe.
Harvey was a little frustrated, his own young patriarch was really lacking in roots, and he only paid attention to those weapons, armor, tools, and so on all day long, but it was worthy of family history. If this quality was in the past, taking over the position of the patriarch of the Minotaur tribe might be very much in line with this responsibility, but now, with such a bad neighbor as the base mountain, the future life of the Hammer tribe may not be so good.
"But, the approach of the base mountain tribe, do you think this is good!" Harvey asked reluctantly,
"Good! How is it not good," Herbert replied crisply, "if all the orcs in the wasteland could live like this in the base mountain, then there would be no rush to war. "Hey, I can't tell that our young patriarch Herbert is still a rare pacifist in the wasteland.
Harvey pinched his teeth, and finally couldn't help it, and gave up the temptation of Herbert, "But young patriarch, do you know that this kind of life requires a lot of food input, and we can't grow food in the wasteland, and those grains are all transported from humans." ”
"Yes, it was brought from the humans, but so what!"
"So what? Young patriarch, think about it, there are so many orcs in the wasteland, all of them are big-bellied men, and it is not so simple to feed them. The human patriarch of the base mountain tribe, he can feed a thousand people, two thousand people, can he still feed all the orcs in the wasteland? The southern humans are so far away from here, no matter what method he uses to transport the grain, it is impossible for him to transport a large amount of grain and sustain it permanently, so many orcs, he can feed himself for a period of time, in the future, there will be no more food, so what should these orcs do? ”
"What should I do?" Herbert was also stunned by him.
"Young patriarch, you also know a truth, since ancient times, the environment of our orc wasteland is destined to not have enough food to produce and cannot feed more local orcs, the grassland of this 10,000-mile wasteland, the livestock that can be supported is limited, so the meat produced, the number of orcs that can be fed is also fixed, this truth Our ancestors have already seen through, so there is a rule of survival on our wasteland: each tribe has to reduce its own Ding every winter, in exchange for more and younger orcs to survive, And those powerful tribes killing each other are by no means as cruel and murderous as the humans and elves outside the wasteland advertise, and the purpose is nothing more than to compete for a limited share of this number and establish the pattern of power distribution in the wasteland. This kind of path that God has already pointed out to the orcs is a doomed fate, that is, when humans come, can it be an exception? ”
Herbert was shocked and began to pay attention to Harvey's words, what old Fox Harvey said, although cruel, was the bloody reality of the wasteland for thousands of years! These are the default rules of all the orc nobles in the wasteland, and they are also the basis for maintaining the orc race in this desperate place in the wasteland under objective conditions, and it is the experience honed by the orcs in the iron and blood struggle of thousands of years in the wasteland.
Herbert, as the heir to a tribal patriarch, also had some awareness of this cruelty.
Can human beings change this kind of dead knot?
Obviously not, although the human patriarch of this base mountain tribe is known as a powerful person and can get a large amount of food, but that food looks like it was obtained from outside, and it is definitely not produced locally, and he has not changed the ability to produce in the wasteland.
Then the problem arises, since the base mountain does not have the ability to change the production of the wasteland, it can't change the total amount of orcs that can be raised in the wasteland, since the human patriarch can't let the wasteland produce more, but he wants to save more orcs in the wasteland who should have died in the process of reducing the number of winters, and he also spends a lot of effort to arm them so that these orcs can live a better life, so what is his purpose.
As the heir of the Iron Hammer tribe of Ironforge Fort, Herbert's head is not stupid, and the Minotaur is also one of the few races with smart minds in the wasteland.
Thinking about it now, what Harvey said really has some truth, and the purpose of what the human patriarch of the base mountain tribe did was indeed suspicious.
"Robbing, only robbing, annexing other tribes, robbing other tribes' food, these surplus surviving orcs, after there is really no food, they must be the same as our ancestors for thousands of years." Harvey said viciously,
"If those divine weapons that humans got from other places were equipped with those lowly and low-level orcs, they would all have the strength to fight against the powerful races."
Saying this, Herbert was even more taken aback.
"As far as I can guess, this human's cruel intentions are probably aimed at splitting the whole orc race in our wasteland."
"They don't care about these old and weak who should have died in the reduction, but in this way, they are trying to change the power structure in our wasteland when the cold winter passes next year and the summer comes."
"If you think about it, the total combat power of our orc wasteland has always been centered on the strong battle race, in fact, the efforts of all individuals in the entire wasteland orc society have finally become the nutrients of the strong war race, stronger warriors, stronger races, so that our orc wasteland can keep our home in the face of humans.
So what if this situation changes, if the situation of this base mountain tribe spreads, more and more old and weak, more and more poor races can survive, and finally gather together, be armed by humans, and fight with the strong fighting races that should be the main force of the wasteland orc race to fight for living space, then in the future, what will our wasteland look like? ”
When Harvey said this, even he couldn't help but shudder,
"That's the chaos in the world! That human is absolutely vicious! ”
"He is simply trying to disrupt the wasteland, weaken the orcs in our wasteland, and conquer our orcs for humanity."
All right! As Harvey, the Fox Counselor, explained step by step, both of them suddenly felt that they had discovered a terrible conspiracy against all the orcs in the wasteland.
"They want us to be their slaves, forever and ever! This goal has never changed, and the war of human invasion of the wasteland has already revealed the greed of human beings. The priests of the temple have already revealed to us that human greed is endless, will never be curbed, and only fighting, only the blood and death of war can awaken them! ”
"Campas, the god of war, is on top! Young Patriarch, we will never let the human conspiracy succeed. Orcs will never be slaves! Speaking of the most indignant part, Harvey couldn't help but turn his head to the sacred mountain, and bowed reverently to his chest. At this moment, the great sages who have been famous for thousands of years in the history of the Fox clan are all possessed by him.
