Chapter 50: Otellus? Claws

In this world, there is always a reason why everything happens, and there is always a great or stupid person behind every big event in the world that is enough to change history.

The patriarch of the Talon Leopard Tribe, named Otellus, was a well-known warrior in the Leopard Tribal Alliance, and he had an impressively broad forehead and prominent cheekbones, which made his eyes look particularly deep and intelligent among the Leopard people of his own race.

Oetellus walked outside the city of Volta, watching his men busy in the wilderness, feeling happy and satisfied.

He was a great patriarch, at least, he thought so, and since he came to power, he insisted on reforming the tribe internally, especially the backward management system of the Council of Elders in the tribe, and learning from the experience he had learned from the people of the south. These valuable experiences were all obtained when he was a mercenary in the southern humans, walking the southern continent for many years, in addition to breaking through the title of a lightning claw leopard man martial saint in the human world, the biggest feeling that human society brought him was not their magical magic and huge force, but agriculture.

Human agriculture is said to have been first learned from the elves, and just as humans learned from the orcs in the first days, humans are a race that can seriously learn from the good of others and strive to carry them forward, which Otellus believes is the most terrible part of human character.

Although human agriculture is not as outrageous as the magic cultivation of the elves, it is also terrible in the eyes of Otellus, and humans can feed a human strong man with an average of three or four acres of land, which is completely different from the efficiency of the wasteland animal husbandry that can feed an orc for one square kilometer.

It is the huge agricultural output that has made human society unprecedentedly developed and expanded, accumulated from generation to generation, and the total population can reach more than a billion, and the productivity of such a terrifying number of population explosions has allowed the upper echelons of human beings to have the resources and manpower and material resources to build a huge empire and army, and the continent is undefeated, compared with the orcs with a total population of only tens of millions, and the elves with a total population of only a few million are not worth mentioning at all.

This is the foundation of human strength, Otellus thought. The reason why the orcs are trapped in the wasteland is because the wasteland has no agriculture, so it is impossible to reproduce a large number of people.

The fertility rate of orcs is not lower than that of humans, and the survival ability of orcs is definitely stronger than that of humans, if orcs also have such a developed agriculture, then orcs should definitely not be like this now.

Agriculture did not evolve in the 10,000-year evolutionary history of the Orc Wasteland, and in Oetellus's view, it was mainly due to different geographical reasons, compared to the warm south occupied by humans and elves, the Orc Wasteland seemed too cold and dry, and few species could survive on this land except for wild grasses, and to be born on this land, as propagated in the religion of the human gods, to some extent, it was indeed a curse.

But the orcs will never give in, the gods that the orcs believe in are the most violent gods of war, fighting the heavens and the earth, is the great feelings hidden in the blood of the orcs, after Otellus returned to his hometown, he quickly found that the tribesmen were driven to the west coast of the typhoon may not be a bad thing.

The climate of this land is different from that of most of the wasteland, and the land here is warm, humid, and fertile, as if it were the land of the southern continent of mankind.

He quickly got up with the idea of letting the tribesmen try to learn the planting industry, transforming the tradition of the orcs who have mainly relied on animal husbandry as the main productive force for thousands of years, the leopard alliance covers an area of millions, and the tribe has more than 30,000 people, and his subordinates control the orc population of all races is definitely more than one million, as long as the productivity of these people can be transferred to the planting industry. Then, according to the experience of Otellus's invasion of the human world, even if he only learns the surface of human agricultural techniques and exerts one-third or even one-quarter of the efficiency of human beings, the total output must be considerable

This, Otellus once asked his fox followers to carefully calculate with himself according to the simple mathematical knowledge passed down from the human side, that the average grain of one mu of human land is 60 to 80 catties, and according to the area that can be reclaimed by one square kilometer, it is calculated that no less than half of the area can be reclaimed, that is, 800 acres of field, one million square kilometers, that is, 800 million acres of fertile land, and a quarter of the production, that is, 12 billion catties, which is equivalent to 6 million tons of grain, enough to feed two million leopard people.

The total population of the wasteland, according to the statistics of the priests of Temple Mountain over the years, is only about 50 million, and most of them are rat people who are smaller and have almost no food needs. Six million tons of food, combined with the output of the orc's traditional animal husbandry, is enough to free the orcs of the entire wasteland from hunger and embark on the path of healthy development.

This production efficiency is absolutely unimaginable to the orcs of the wasteland.

This is definitely the path that the Talon Department will take in the future.

But who to learn from the planting industry, is this still a question to consider, in the south, the elves who are close at hand don't face up to the originator of the mainland planting industry?

As long as there is an understanding with the elves, trade is open, the tribesmen can learn to plant with the elves, and open up a cultivation base for the orcs on the west coast, then it will be enough for the orcs to break through the limitations of their current development, and the orcs will get rid of hunger and become strong and prosperous again.

At that time, the people will be well fed, the population will multiply, and they will have their own strength, and the hatred between the Tiger Tiger and the Lion Clan, and even some other issues, will be easy to handle.

It has to be said that Otellus is an orc with determination and vision, but the problem is that perhaps Otellus is too discerning, and his vision has been strong enough to break through the limitations of narrow races and times.

In this world, half a step ahead is advanced, and one step or a few steps ahead has become the cause of tragedy.

More than ten years of mercenary career with humans has made him adapt to the huge territory and overlord of human beings, but he has forgotten that the hatred recorded in history is difficult to easily dissolve. Not all races have the broad-mindedness needed to defuse hatred.

The elven duo who had come from afar finally met the orc patriarch who had bewildered all the elves by his great talent and behavior. The two were warmly entertained by Otellus, and at the welcome dinner he organized for the two, in order to cater to the special appetite of the two, Otellus actually changed the menu of the dinner of all the orcs present, and several delicious fruits produced in the West Coast became the favorite dinner of the two elves, and all the orcs present at the banquet also showed the guests the generosity and hospitality of the orcs, and there were no bloody incidents such as revenge quarrels.

Beyoncé had received such warm treatment, but she had not been fooled by the apparent enthusiasm of the orcs, and she had been able to determine that she had made an objective assessment of Otellus. Otellus, perhaps a great orc, heroic, decisive, eloquent, and charismatic, had one terrible flaw, and she didn't even want to mention, and that was that he, like the other orcs in the wasteland, had the same kind of incorrigible stupidity that was hidden in their orcs' bones!
