Chapter 5: The Elven Mission (1)

"Zachar, do you remember, a few days ago, the elven envoy came to the Emerald Capital. Jutt said, picking up a piece of steak.

Saga frowned and thought about it, for him, this matter was really a long time ago.

But fortunately, his strength is strong, and he still has memories of this incident, and there seems to be a big elf in the mission this time.

Fragments of memories from the previous life returned to his mind, and Sachar finally remembered the whole story of this elven mission.

The empire was extremely extensive, with 1.3 million square kilometers of land at the time of the Republic.

In the era of the three emperors, the territory of the empire was expanded, and the territory of the empire expanded dramatically.

So far, the most elite land of the empire is naturally the central eight provinces of the two river basins, which are almost all plains, and because they are located in the middle and lower reaches of the two mother rivers, the land is very fertile, and they are all extremely suitable for cultivation.

To the east of the empire is the sea, as far as the eye can see, in this era, the empire did not yet have the ability to travel to the ocean, so all along, the center of gravity of the empire's conquest has been in the other three directions, expanding to the north, south, and west.

The Elven Kingdom is a powerful kingdom discovered by the Empire in its conquest to the southwest.

The main people of this kingdom are the elves.

In the history of empires, conquered races have basically gone through several processes.

Slaves-Freedmen-Citizens-Magnates-Celebrities.

The conquered races have been promoted step by step through their own efforts to improve their status.

In today's empire, there are very few real traditional families like the Brandon family.

The Emerald Empire is culturally inclusive, and as long as it can win the respect of the Emerald Empire, even after being conquered, it can gain a decent status, which is why the civilians of the conquered countries are not very resistant.

If the Jade Empire also did that kind of barbaric behavior of "keeping your hair but not your head", hehe, the empire would not be at the peak it is today.

The empire began with the Armenians, who merged with the Mesonians to form the new Emerald people, and then it was a process of continuous integration with other peoples.

The southwest of the empire is almost all mountainous, and there is a fight with the Hengduan Mountains of the Celestial Empire, and the difficulty of those roads will definitely not be easier than the legendary Shu Road.

But the discovery of the elves made the magnates of the Jade Empire ecstatic, and they almost all saw a way to improve the bloodline of the family, so no matter how difficult it was, they had to pass.

In the eyes of the Emerald Empire, the elves are simply the perfect race, and they call the elves "Avalon", which means "darling of the gods".

Elves resemble humans, with the only difference being pointed ears, but no one can deny their beauty.

Moreover, they are a whole race that is very beautiful, which is really too enviable.

The elves have a splendid culture, they are noble, elegant, intelligent, beautiful, emotionally delicate, with beautiful voices and melodies, and are born poets, painters, singers and dancers, all of which fascinate the humans of the Emerald Empire.

Their racial talent is also far superior to that of the vast majority of humans, and even in dim conditions, their vision is twice that of ordinary humans, so they possess extremely high archery skills.

Compared to archery, the magic level of the elves is not inferior.

The extremely precious magicians on the side of the Jade Empire can be seen almost everywhere in the elven race, and what is even more unbelievable is that the magicians of human beings, no matter how talented they are, can only practice one series of magic, but the high-level elves can use all the elemental magic of the system.

And they have a longer lifespan than humans, elves can generally live to more than 300 years, so in their lives, there is more time to study, the elven scholars have a wide range of knowledge, and the scholars of the Jade Empire are deeply impressed by the elven scholars.

In the entire Emerald Empire, except for a very small number of families called "gods" like the Brandon family, there is no one who can compare with them.

And the elves also have a strong strength, they take the forest as their home, love nature, they have a very high affinity for nature, almost one with nature, they live in the forest, form a relatively loose kingdom, equal and friendly to each other.

The most important thing is that the elves with such great strength are still pacifists, they are hostile to evil races, such as legendary demons and demons, and they can get along with good races.

Elves are always willing to spend a lot of time on things that humans can't understand, listening to the gurgling water, the birds in the forest and the wind blowing......

Unlike humans, who like to compete for power, the meaning of life for elves is to slowly discover the good place and enjoy it to the fullest.

For the Empire, such an elven race is very good!

After the Generalissimo of the Southwest received enough news from the Elves, the Empire's Southwest Expeditionary Force stopped in the Southwest, and the Emperor personally ordered to send an envoy to the Elven Court to meet the Elven Queen, hoping that the two countries could establish diplomatic relations.

Although the elves don't like the aggressive behavior of the empire, they are not stupid, and the 100,000 troops stationed in the southwest are not decorations.

Although the elves are not afraid of this 100,000 army, once the two countries go to war, how many elven people will die on the battlefield?

For the elves, soldiers only exist to protect their people, and if children are allowed to set foot on the battlefield for the sake of temporary likes and dislikes, this is absolutely not allowed, and the elven kings of the major tribes will not support her.

Moreover, the Jade Empire obviously released its goodwill, and only when it had a hole in its brain did it take the initiative to go to war.

The Empire's rare show of goodwill towards a country is largely due to the strength of the Elven Kingdom.

Although because of the strength of the organization, the elven kingdom is not as strong as the empire, but the empire is actually suffering and cannot be said.

The terrain in the southwest is too bleak, full of mountains and jungles.

The Empire's most powerful northern cavalry and hoplites simply could not fight in this terrain.

However, this is still the home of the elves, and throwing troops into it is simply murdering the soldiers of the empire.

For these reasons, the Elven Kingdom should be regarded as the first country to establish diplomatic relations with the Emerald Empire without going through a war.

Since the establishment of diplomatic relations, the two countries have attached great importance to their relations with each other, and every once in a while, they will send missions to each other and reach some cooperation.
