On the ruins of the former Grand Duke's Mansion in Lion's Tooth City, a large number of bungalows have been built. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info is not so luxurious, but it finally brings a touch of life to the city. It was built with the help of human captives, and it still shows the style of the demons - simple, practical, and durable. And in the center of this bungalow, an area has been carved out, which has become the palace of Empress Gilly.

At this time, an audience ceremony was being held in the palace, and the Earl of Oakley, the traitor to mankind, knelt in front of Kelly's seat, and sang an ode with his hands raised. Gilly had a smile in her eyes and a look of encouragement on her face. When the long chant was finished, Gilly smiled kindly, "Please, Your Excellency, I hereby promise that you and your generals will be the same as the Saints." Although the rest of the Rakishs were temporarily enslaved, those who served in the Holy War also became freemen. Those who have made meritorious contributions and their families will become Rong clans just like you. ”

"Thank you, beautiful Majesty!" said the Earl of Oakley, with great emotion, "your kindness shines like the sun on the earth. You will always see my faithfulness as a servant. "Although they are traitors who are greedy for life and fear death, in formal occasions, Queen Gilly and the Earl of Oakley always have to behave in a high-sounding manner.

Since Ji Li came to the Yuansheng Continent, she has promulgated several major policies:

The first was to sign an alliance agreement with the steppe barbarians, demarcate the borders, and send those steppe barbarians out of the country. Such an alliance must have paid a great price, so that most of the gold and silver treasures and luxury goods became the spoils of the steppe barbarians. Of course, the income of the demons is not small. In exchange, the area occupied by the demons is basically bordered by the former Red Lion Principality, and a large number of human captives have also been ransomed by the demons;

In fact, it is the treatment of those human captives. When Gilly arrived, she immediately issued an order: forbid the gratuitous killing of those human captives. And those human captives, as pariahs, were all reduced to slavery and distributed to the former meritorious soldiers. However, there is still a way out for these slaves, who can join the servant army and assist the demons in their battles. As long as they serve for a certain period of time, they will be liberated as freemen after being discharged. Those who have made meritorious contributions can become Rong clan and can basically enjoy most of the political rights;

Finally, there is the distribution of occupied territories. The total number of the demon army that came with Ji Li this time reached more than four million. Among them, more than 500,000 are the private soldiers of the powerful people of the demon clan, the merchant groups and craftsmen who accompany the army. The arrival of these demons, of course, is to receive new territories, and those human slaves are basically distributed to the hands of these demon magnates. However, for the demons, they also played a role in resuming production. The first thing is to resume farming, as well as mining, weapon manufacturing, and so on. This can greatly reduce the logistical pressure of the demons.

To the Earl of Oakley, Empress Kelly was a daughter: "Your Excellency, your troops will still be trained and recuperate, and they will follow in the next battle." In addition to sending out some guides, your troops will maintain law and order, which is also meritorious. ”

The Earl of Oakley looked agitated, for Gilly did not use his servants as cannon fodder: "Your Majesty!

"Your Excellency!" Gilly smiled, "you are familiar with the untouchables who have stolen the Holy Land. What do you think of our plans next?" asked Gilly casually, indicating that she valued the Earl of Oakley. In fact, all the powerful ministers of the demon clan here have a great contempt for Count Oakley in their hearts. In this era of heavy heroes, no race can afford a coward.

The Earl of Oakley, on the other hand, thought about it for a moment, and then began to talk unexpectedly: "Your Majesty! The current ...... The biggest fatal point of the pariahs is their empress. The name of the people is self-evident, and it cannot be convincing to the public, which affects the unity of those untouchables. ”

"Among the major forces, cults like the Illuminati are certainly stubborn. But non-human races like Beamon or Elves can fight for it. Their territory is not bordered by this, and they have no incentive to fight to the death with our Holy Clan. And the same is true of the kingdoms of Tro and the Duchy of His. Although they are also human nations, they can maintain a tacit understanding. ”

"Oh?" Venerable Harlem on the side became interested, "You mean to send an envoy to discuss?"

"Your Majesty, your wisdom is admirable. "There's no need to be in such a hurry, you can release some captives and bring back letters at first, and establish contact first." First of all, we need to trust each other, and at least we need to be able to communicate. So I arrogantly made a request: while the army was prosperous, I could give those lowly people a chance to survive. Agree to their surrender and settle down. Gradually divide and strengthen the trust of those who are untouchable. ”

Although the Earl of Oakley inadvertently made accusations of indiscriminate killing, the people present were all politically savvy, and they all kept their emotions in check. These demons know that in fact, the Earl of Oakley is right. If it is an indiscriminate killing and arrest without any room for negotiation, how can the human coalition surrender? Let alone believe in any diplomatic negotiations.

So Empress Gilly encouraged: "Your loyalty is touching. Your Excellency, please continue your insights. ”

The Earl of Oakley bowed deeply to Gilly again: "Your Majesty! Not everything has to be done slowly, in fact, there is a place where you can send an envoy first." The city-states in the south of the continent are engaged in a civil war with the Empire, and if they can form an alliance or cooperate with each other, then the strength of the Cheap can be greatly weakened. When all the Cheap Empire and the cult are annihilated, the Holy Clan will be able to occupy a dominant position. At that time, the entire continent will be the jewel in your crown, Your Majesty. ”

At this point, Gilly was a little impressed by the traitorous coward of humanity. His moral character is chilling, but his ability is quite good. So Kieley immediately decided to take the advice of the Earl of Oakley.

......

By the time the Earl of Oakley stepped aside, the atmosphere was a little lighter. A demon general joked: "I didn't expect that there are still people who can use their brains in the cheap clan." Haha!"

Seeing that Ji Li's face immediately turned cold, Venerable Harlem hurriedly scolded: "Nonsense! Your Excellency the Earl is already our Rong family, and we must not discriminate against. Get out of here! to your troops. Train those boys and yourself, and you're the vanguard this time. ”

The demon general also came to his senses, and he hurriedly saluted and left the palace. Thinking that Her Majesty's prince and man are also lowly, he shouldn't be so cheap and make the empress unhappy. Let's stay out of the way for now!(To be continued.) )
