Chapter 6: The Best of Both Worlds

After the introduction of the village chief, Li Ping'an understood what the lord war was all about.

Lords want to annex each other, essentially to obtain the other side's world fragments, in order to expand their territory.

If you want to get the other side of the World Fragment, you must defeat the owner of the World Fragment.

But the average owner of the World Fragment is basically invincible in their own territory.

So what to do?

Then there is a war of lords, in which both sides send troops to attack each other's territory, and the victorious side replaces the flag of the other side and the family coat of arms of the lord of the main city in the main city of the occupied land.

The area under the jurisdiction of the main city will be occupied by the other side.

The materials of these emblems themselves are not special, except that they have been added by the lord with his own world shards.

After being placed in the main city, it can echo with the clan emblem in the territory, and seize control of the opponent's territory with the opponent's world fragments.

When occupying more than 50% of the opponent's territory, the opponent will lose the bonus from World Fragments.

At this point, the battle for lordships is generally coming to an end, and the two territories will be in a decisive battle.

Under normal circumstances, it will be the side that loses the blessing of the World Fragment and loses its life.

Because after he loses the bonus of world fragments, he will lose a layer of strength, and his combat endurance will be greatly reduced.

And the other side, although it loses the support that it has in territorial warfare, will also lose its strength.

However, his world fragments have not yet been paralyzed, and he can get a small amount of strength and endurance bonuses, and his long-lasting combat ability can still be guaranteed to a certain extent.

And this time, the struggle between the Marco family and the Oda family has entered a white-hot stage, as long as the Oda family captures 20% of the land again.

The next step is to enter the decisive battle between the lords.

Therefore, the Marco family issued a conscription order more than a month ago, to complete the convocation within two months, and completely occupy the territory of the Oda family within half a year.

But no matter how lively it is, the victory or defeat of the war has little to do with these villagers.

They are already at the bottom of society, and if the territorial war is won, their treatment will not get better.

Lost territorial wars may lead to slavery among the soldiers, but the new lords will still need tribute from the lowest of their population to sustain their lavish lives.

At that time, the ownership of these people will belong to the new lord, and the peasants who will become the new lord, and their own lives will still be the same.

But conscription is different, each family recruits a prime-age population, and there is no doubt that the pillars of ordinary villagers' homes are siphoned off.

For these small families, it's like the sky is falling.

And Li Ping'an's relief for them this time not only saved their vitality, but also gave them the opportunity to retain two-thirds of the seeds of the future.

That's why the old village chief was so excited.

When Li Ping'an heard the village chief say this, he felt that this so-called Lord Marco was either stupid or cruel.

The implementation of the strategy of one household and one ding can be described as a desperate strategy, and after a war, the men of a village do not know how many people will be able to return.

It is even possible that none of them will come back.

By then, there is a good chance that the village will disappear in a few years.

This is very disadvantageous for a territory with a small population, and it is tantamount to self-destruction of the Great Wall.

As a lord, it is impossible not to anticipate this situation, and even if he does not know, there should be an internal affairs officer by his side to remind him that this is happening.

In fact, this is Li Ping'an's limitation by his thinking in his previous life.

In this world, in the eyes of these lords, the people under their command are just consumables.

They don't see humanity as anything precious, and they don't see population as a precious resource.

And one household and one ding, although it is very stressful for human beings.

But for those goblins and hog-headed people with incredible fecundity, it's not unacceptable.

Those races are astonishingly proliferated, and they are more ignorant and manageable, and they are more tolerant of exploitation. Much easier to use than humans.

As for whether this creature will become extinct, those lords don't bother to care.

Without Butcher Zhang and Butcher Li, everyone still drinks and eats meat.

So the lords are not stupid, it's just that humans are not an indispensable resource for them.

Of course, for humans, this lord can indeed be called brutal.

However, it is not only Marco who is like this, all the other lords do not attach great importance to humans.

In their opinion, human beings have more trouble than other races, think more, and resist when they are in a hurry, and they are annoyed to death.

If it weren't for the fact that these humans were better at building comfortable built environments, cooking food, and having a lot of beautiful women, they would have carried out their extermination plan a long time ago.

After getting this information, Li Ping'an had a plan in his heart, and he felt that this horse was a very good target.

All you need to do is infiltrate his army, wait for Marco to kill the other lord, get another piece of the world, and then kill Marco as a human rebel.

At that time, it is logical that he will have two world fragments, and then he can naturally use this as a base and start to gradually gain more territory.

After having an idea, Li Ping'an was in a good mood and felt that the future was promising.

Li Ping'an asked the old man: "He has been issued for so long since the conscription order was issued, when will the official conscription begin?" ”

The village chief thought for a while and said, "The last time the recruiter came in a month and a half, he said that he would gather people within two months, so it is estimated that he will definitely come back within half a month." ”

Li Ping'an understood, so he said to the village chief: "They are on the battlefield, aren't you worried that they won't come back?" What about their families. ”

As soon as Li Ping'an's words came out, the village chief's eyes turned red again for a while.

"I don't want the good boys in the village to go to the battlefield, but what if I don't go, as soon as the conscription order comes out, if you forcibly resist, it will inevitably bring ruin to the village." The village chief was in tears again.

Li Ping'an was happy in his heart, but his face showed a anxious look.

"Don't cry all the time, it's really not good for your health."

"Yes, village chief, you cried twice before you said a few words today, I can't stand you like this." Muta said honestly.

"If I were forty years younger, I would have gone in person to protect the safety of the villagers, but I am too old to fight, and I can't even go to the battlefield, so I don't even have the opportunity to block the knife for the children, so I won't be useful."

The village chief cried heartbreakingly, and felt a little out of breath.

Li Ping'an knew that the time was coming, so he said: "Hey, what's the matter, don't cry, it's really not good, I'll replace one person in your village, and when the time comes, I'll protect them on the battlefield, don't cry." ”
