Chapter Ninety-Eight, Queen Bunny's Ambition (II)
Chapter Ninety-Eight, Queen Bunny's Ambition (II)
At this moment, Her Majesty Tiyure, the heroic Queen of the Headhunter Rabbit, is patrolling her new territory with a large number of personal guards.
For people living in temperate and subtropical zones, spring is always the most beautiful season. After a few warm spring rains, the flowers bloom in the river valleys and hillsides, and the colorful butterflies dance among the flowers, and the scenery is as beautiful as an oil painting.
However, for the poor who do not have enough to eat in the troubled times, they certainly do not have much heart to appreciate the flowers and butterflies. Relatively speaking, the wheat seedlings in the cultivated fields between the river valleys are the most beautiful scenery in their minds - looking at this field of hope, the fluffy and green wheat seedlings, and the crystal clear dew drops under the morning light, they seem to see the hope of a bumper harvest in autumn.
After this period of reclamation and cultivation, patches of farmland have reappeared in the flat land of the river valley, which was once occupied by sparse forests and wild grasses. And the remaining flat places are also full of freshly turned land and criss-crossing ditches. The reeds on the riverbank are being burned and harvested, and groups of yellow-skinned people, under the supervision of whip-wielding rabbit-eared mothers, are in full swing clearing the land and re-plowing and sowing.
Realistically speaking, according to the humanitarian standards of the modern earth, in any type of traditional ancient agrarian society, even if the world is peaceful and the weather is smooth, the life of the common people is not happy at all. The so-called "beautiful pastoral life" in the poem actually belongs to only a few wealthy landlords, and the real low-level peasants have never enjoyed it so much. The real ancient peasants, whether yeoman or sharecroppers, were extremely poor in material conditions. Except during the sparsely populated period, it is difficult for ordinary people to eat meat, rarely have the opportunity to change into new clothes, and are often forced to drown babies, especially girls. If you are sick, you can only lie down and wait for yourself to heal or die. Even in the period of relatively abundant material conditions, the risk of plague and barbarian and wild beast attacks is correspondingly much higher, thus negating the small benefit of being able to hunt and chop wood freely.
Although the Queen of the Headhunters did not provide them with much material at the moment, except for a few skilled craftsmen who could eat every day, the other laborers could only drink thin multigrain porridge and barely survive to the point of half-starvation, but they still sang loud labor trumpets and songs, and worked in full swing - because Queen Tiuret not only brought peace and tranquility to the city, but also promised to distribute the land to them according to the performance of their labor after the reclamation was completed, which was to build a new home of their own!
This is enough for those who have lost their houses and wealth in the war rebellion, watched their relatives die of hunger and cold one by one during the flight, and even experienced the tragedy of cannibalism in extreme hunger, just trying to survive and not get it!
While the cruel fate has robbed them of their hope for life, taken away everything they once had, and let them die in despair and numbness, the Queen of the Headhunters has allowed them to regain their own land, their own homeland, and the future of their offspring!
That alone was enough for them to consider Tiyuret their master, and to embrace her rule.
At the same time, the Queen of the Headhunters, Tiure, was also quite satisfied with the cheers of the serfs - although to this day, she still can't forget the hustle and bustle of Arnoos and Hong Kong: the bright city scene as bright as day, the roaring cars and trains, the colorful neon lights, the singing and dancing performances on the big screen in the square, the smell of various earthly delicacies in the snack street, and the various aerial vehicles that oppress all beings...... These bustling and noisy scenes of prosperity, as well as the stability and abundance contained in them, made Tiyure, who was accustomed to seeing the empty grassland, deeply intoxicated for a while.
However, she chose to leave after all, because no matter how prosperous and comfortable the urban life of earthlings is, it is also on someone else's territory. Although the city in front of her is backward and dilapidated, it is truly her country, and everything in this land is at her disposal.
And this level of power demand is something that earthlings can never satisfy her.
What's more, according to Queen Tiuret's optimistic vision, it may not be long before she can enjoy all that Arnous has to offer again......

ββ¦β¦ The vast mountains and green land have given birth to our indomitable race. Let us headhunters be as tough, rough and full of vitality as weeds, and as delicate and soft as flowers. We love beauty, but we don't let it make us weak; We endure humiliation, but we do not lose faith because of it. Our strength is very small, but we are always alive! No matter how many times we have been defeated and displaced, we can wipe away our tears and start all over again to build a new home......"
Raising her whip and pointing to the vibrant field in front of her, Queen Tiuret spoke eloquently to her cronies, "...... Werewolves, dwarves, elves, and humans all once saw us as cattle and slaves, but we are unruly sons and daughters of the wilderness, and our female warriors are equally strong and resilient, fearlessly drawing our swords against even the most powerful empire in the land, and persevering until the last moment in the face of the most powerful enemies.
Indeed, the Otherworldly people who descended the hills of Arnous rescued us from our predicament, showed us a glorious civilization that we could never have imagined before, and treated us with unprecedented kindness, a kindness that we must always acknowledge. But even so, that's not a reason for us to abandon our heritage and fully integrate into them. I thank them, admire them, learn from them, but I want to use the knowledge I have learned from them to build a country that belongs to the headhunters, a rich, civilized and powerful advanced country comparable to their cities. And as my bravest and most trusted samurai, I hope you will assist me in all this great cause and become a hero of our clan......"
Just as Queen Tiyuret was about to speak, Delilah, the half-breed rabbit-eared lady who had sent an envoy to the imperial capital of Ulabyanca to request canonization, interrupted the Queen of the Headhunters' impromptu speech by waving a richly framed scroll and riding a horse.
ββ¦β¦ Report to Your Majesty! The edict signed by the Empress and the Senate was brought by me! β
She gasped slightly, and reported to Queen Tiuret with an unhappy expression, "...... But the Empire did not make Lendel a fief of you, nor did it promise you any titles of nobility, but only appointed you to be the mayor of Lendel for a term of three years......"
ββ¦β¦ Bastard! The red-headed female emperor is too stingy, isn't she? Is she still trying to take the city back in three years? β
ββ¦β¦ It is! Before we arrived in Lendle, the city was in ruins! How much material and energy we have spent in the past six months to restore it to its current state! Now the empire actually wrote a document and wanted to take it away? What a dream! β
ββ¦β¦ According to the rules, this city is already our land! Sending Delilah to the imperial capital to ask for canonization is just to give the Imperial Senate and the female emperor a face, not to let them kick their noses in the face! Since they don't have a face, why should we be polite? β
ββ¦β¦ Speaking of which, even in the past years, Lendel was an autonomous and independent city-state, when did it become an imperial territory? β
ββ¦β¦ It is! Even if it is now in such a state of decay, the empire is still so insatiable! Is this treating us, the bravest warriors of the steppe, as lambs to be slaughtered? Hum! Who is afraid of whom! Looks like we're going to have to teach them another lesson! β
ββ¦β¦ If the Empire wants to take advantage of us, let them send troops to fight us! See who can win! β
β¦β¦
Hearing that the empire actually treated its headhunter rabbit clan so stingy, and even a city that had long been abandoned and a piece of land that had been barren for a long time was reluctant to be given to its own queen, all the high-spirited headhunter rabbit female warriors were filled with righteous indignation and scolded one by one.
However, in the face of the excitement of her subordinates, Queen Tiyuret looked calm, and when the violent bunny girls were almost talking, Her Majesty Queen Tiyulei opened her mouth unhurriedly, "...... I already know your loyalty. But it's not necessary to be angry for such a trivial matterβwith the empire now falling apart and losing ground year after year, even if the female emperor refuses to give me the city of Lendl, will she still be able to send a large army to fight us and drive us out of here in three years? As for the title of the Empire, I don't like it yet!
Besides, the reason why I want to take Lendel City is just to try to practice my skills and try to learn how to manage a human city. Once you've gained experience, the city won't necessarily have to be here in three years β don't you want to go back to the Arnoos hills? β
When the bunny girls heard this, they immediately looked at each other, and under the hint of the eyes of the rest of their companions, Delila stepped forward and spoke first, "...... Your Majesty, since we have followed you here, we have not thought of betraying the tribe again, but ...... The people of the Alien Realm in the Armus Hills are really not something that a small force like us can covet! And if you move on them, the reputation of our headhunter rabbit clan will become very ugly......"
ββ¦β¦ Hehe, where did you think of this? Not to mention that we will definitely not be able to defeat the Otherworldly people of the Arnous Hills, just with so many favors they have given to the Headhunters before, how can I take revenge? What's more, there are tens of thousands of our headhunter rabbit compatriots there! Those are our relatives and descendants, as the last king of the headhunter rabbit clan, how can I ignore their lives and deaths? β
Queen Tiyuret smiled and soothed the bunny girls whose faces suddenly became ugly, "...... As long as the Chinese are still on Farmatt 6 for a day, I will definitely not be treacherous, self-defeating, and delusional about beating their ideas. But...... What if they're all gone? β
ββ¦β¦ You mean...... Wait until the 'door' of the Arnous Hill closes before we do it? Delila asked with a frown.
ββ¦β¦ That's right, I had already found out before I left the Arnous Hills, and in three or four years at most, the space-time gate on the Arnous Hills would close and disappear. Then, when the Chinese from other worlds leave, the cities, villages, and ports they built around the Arnous hills, as well as the farmlands, pastures, and orchards that have been cultivated over the years6, will be left behind and become ownerless. Anyone is on a first-come, first-served basis!
In this battle for the inheritance of the otherworldly, our headhunter rabbit clan obviously has a great advantage. First of all, we have lived there for several years, and we are familiar with everything built by the people of the other world, and we may be able to persuade the Chinese side to take the initiative to cooperate with us in handing over the city to us. Secondly, there are still tens of thousands of our headhunter rabbits living in the Arnus Hills today, and there will definitely be some people who are unwilling to migrate to the earth to live, as long as we contact them, we will be able to cooperate with the outside world in the first time, and gain a firm foothold there before other forces!
The other forces on the Falmatt 6 don't have as much of an internal response in the Arnous Hills, and they are certainly not as well-informed as we are, and their armies are farther away from the territory of the Otherworldrs. As long as nothing else, we are the destined winners in this race. And as long as we succeed in taking over the Otherworldly City of the Arnus Hills, what other force in this world can make us afraid? β
ββ¦β¦ Oh...... Your Majesty is wise! Your thoughtfulness, I can't wait for ......"
When the violent bunny girls heard this, they couldn't help but suddenly realize, and they nodded yes, and a pair of long rabbit ears swayed in the mountain wind.
However, although Queen Tiyuret has a very, very good idea of the future of "peacefully receiving the inheritance of the Otherworldly, so that the whole family of headhunters can soar and become a powerful country in one fell swoop", she unfortunately forgot one of the most critical points.
That is, although the space-time gate connecting the two worlds in the Arnus Hill is indeed unable to be maintained forever. But the question is, when the space-time gate on the top of the Arnous Hill closes, will all the Chinese who come from Earth really leave Farmatt 6?
It's a pity that at least some of the Chinese who have crossed over have different ideas about this......

ps: Taiwan's Ministry of National Defense launched the "Pot Sticker Service", announcing that recruits can replace military service with unpaid labor in chain pot sticker shops, but no matter how you look at it, it looks like a modern version of the Song Dynasty Xiang Army and the late Ming Dynasty military households were used as slaves by the powerful - is it really the dregs of traditional Chinese culture in Ghost Island?
Another: The next chapter is "The Commissar's Iron Ambition", and the countdown to the end of the book is getting closer and closer.
