797. Pure orcs with nominal tribes
As the excitement finally ended, calm returned to the lord's room, and Agni, Cardinal, and Grua did not leave, but watched the agreement that Rand and Caterina had made.
"Rand, I think you're overly indulgent to the Demonic Tiger sometimes, she must know that Caterina is an orc," Agni Fire began to express his displeasure as soon as the Demonic Tiger was gone, "Her role in the territory is not as good as Tierney's vine wind, why are you so elevating her?" ”
"Hehe, it's a big cat after all," Rand said with a laugh.
Of course, Rand knows that the Demon Tiger is lazy, greedy, sometimes a little clever, not bad-minded, and has no lofty ideals and ambitions, but isn't Rand, or the former He Chao, like this? It's not so much that Rand has a pet, but that Rand pinned some kind of favor on himself on this big lazy cat.
"Don't talk about that tiger," Cardinal asked, gesturing to the text of the treaty on the table, with some skepticism, "Does the Empire really allow such a treaty between the Terran and the Orc tribes?" According to the Empire's decrees, you are now only the commander of the battlefield, and you cannot take the place of the Empire in making decisions. ”
Cardinal also admits that the current result is the best result for the Galloping Horse Plain, with Rand making the most profits, the least changes in the surrounding area, the lowest costs, and more importantly, the movement of the war is under Rand's control.
However, the maximization of the interests of the Galloping Horse Plain means that the human empire has not obtained the greatest benefits, although the prime minister of the empire was stopped by the red dragon rock yesterday and temporarily stopped the plan to send troops to the west, but agreeing to the truce does not mean that the rolling gods of the imperial capital can sit back and watch the rand and orcs coexist peacefully and be like a family.
"Also, I'm afraid that Caterina will definitely use her relationship with you to play up your so-called support in her tribe, and maybe even gossip with you!"
"Well, she'll definitely do that," Rant nodded, "she's the most mature politician in the entire basin, and she doesn't care about reputation for the good of the tribe." ”
"Besides, she doesn't have much reputation to speak of." Gruya added, "But you have to be careful, Rand, the Imperial Department was also watching your collusion with the orcs, and now with such a cat, you will be attacked by the nobles." ”
Rand nodded, to be precise, he had already reminded Klein when he came just now, and let him find a good reason for himself to explain why he was able to suddenly cooperate with the two Warcraft gods in a decisive battle.
If it weren't for his wife's request for Rand and Halkala, Klein might have used this to negotiate terms.
Seeing that the little cardinal and Grua were silent, Agni asked, "But Rand, I still don't understand, why did you let me stay here to see this vellum paper?" I don't negotiate with the cats. ”
"But you can also have your own tribe like them in the future!" Rant stroked the old man's back, "Now there are more and more herbivore orcs in Qicheng, I want to concentrate these orcs in the barbarian area north of the city, unify them as members of your tribe, and let Imola them manage them in the future." ”
"Huh?" Agni suddenly became interested, "This is also a way, there are so many herbivore beasts now, so I have to let Imola take care of them." ”
"Rand, are you sure?" Gu Leia is a little strange, Lanter's move is undoubtedly to add another orc tribe system to the territory, "A herbivorous tribe led by a high-level demonic beast, this is already a very pure orc structure, are you sure you want to establish a pure orc tribe in your territory?" ”
"I'm going to build a tribe of orcs in name, but it's not pure at all, just like my tribe of galloping horses, although very barbarian, but not pure barbarians." Rand said with a smile.
After this period of understanding of the orcs, Rand has become more and more aware that the orcs, barbarians and elves are all very small in their territory, but they provide different strategic significance, such as the barbarians are a powerful source of soldiers, the orcs can serve the monsters, and the elves take care of the demon plants.
Instead, let them maintain a certain social uniqueness and have some specific connections with themselves, such as through their personal relationships with Neil, Halkala, Agni, and Imola, so that these minorities can become their own personal power.
The establishment of a single-ethnic human empire is very much in line with Rand's simple feelings, but the imperial capital, the royal capital, and the Holy City of the Temple Alliance, any of which cities may influence the thoughts of the human race in the Night Qi City.
For the future Galloping Horse Kingdom, the combined population of orcs, Manchus, and elves will not exceed half of the total population, and the high-level of these races will rely heavily on the support of Rand to become an important force to balance the high-level of the human race and prevent excessive interference from Dragon's Tooth City and the Imperial Capital.
For these races, their own leaders maintain a special relationship with Rand, and the tribe has a spokesperson at the core of the kingdom, and their survival is guaranteed.
"Win over the minority to balance the majority, support the border balance core, and now I am more and more like a qualified feudal lord!" Rand laughed to himself helplessly.
His approach was to imitate the feudal kings in his hometown and set aside a large enough private team for himself before the official establishment of the country.
"The orc tribe is just a formality, this tribe is to make the herbivores feel more secure, and at the same time more comfortable to accept the policies within the territory." Rand, who figured it out, explained.
"The territory will guarantee peace for a period of time in the future, and I don't want this to be a simple truce, but a precious opportunity for peaceful development."
"But Rand, the empire has been at peace for a long time, and if there is no war in the Galloping Horse Plain in the future, there will be no war elsewhere." In the past few thousand years, the most turbulent frontier of mankind has been the Galloping Horse Plain, where every few hundred years, the two races will go to war, and a dozen will be hundreds of years.
"The war can't end, I won't fight here, they will naturally find a new place and bleed." Rand kept smiling and didn't continue.
"You mean, ...... with the ocean," Grace understood at once, and she didn't continue, but just expressed a gesture with her hand.
"Ernst told me that day that he suddenly had some thoughts about the secrets of the Sea Clan, and that he needed more materials," Rand said simply after seeing that Grua had already guessed, "That's why I asked Tierney and the Black Rabbit to follow Natasha, believing that they should soon have something to gain." ”
