Chapter 88 Swallowing the Sun! (Part 2)(1/2)

Chapter 88: Swallow the Sun! (Previous) Please vote for recommendation!

The noble council is pleasing itself.

When he saw the guy who claimed to be a lord, who was flattered and sent him the document with the seals of the three great masters of the noble parliament.

Murphy realized this.

The war has ended. However, many matters that must be handled after the war have just begun. When the Half Beast Army attacked Athens, the noble parliament's ignorance was already known because of Lady Elizabeth's big fuss! If Athens were slashed by the Half Beast Army, then this would be an unjust case, and the final result would be nothing more than severance. But the result is that Athens was not slashed by the Half Beast Army, but instead, they fought head-on to destroy the main force of the Half Beast Army on a plain battlefield!

In this way, the direction of things begins to be in trouble.

From the noble council, he has avoided fighting head-on war with the Half Beast Army and was broken and passive defense, and then to the Half Beast Army besieging Athens, the great dukes refused to save them, and Elizabeth's husband had a quarrel with the Council.

All this had already spread throughout the southern plains at a rapid speed.

Even the half-elves that were adjacent to it knew that the nobles who were in vain in this noble council were once again betrayed.

In such a primitive era, the covenants between the same tribes were very important.

And the attitude of the noble parliament in this war is undoubtedly challenging the bottom line that humans can tolerate.

Why can weak humans occupy the southern plains all the time?

There is no doubt that one is to watch out for each other and help each other when encountering powerful foreign enemies. This time, the actions of the Grand Dukes of the Parliament not only angered the middle and lower-level human people, but also deeply hurt another human force that maintained an alliance with the noble parliament.

That is - the barbarians!

It can be said that this act of the noble parliament to refuse to save him, which directly turned his relationship with barbarians and humans from being friendly to being cold.

……………………

Although the war won the victory.

But the public opinion in the entire southern plains pushed the three grand dukes of the noble parliament to the forefront!

The power of Athens!

Unity and sacrifice when fighting against the half-beast army with them!

The lower slums of the entire southern plains were discussing what would happen if the noble parliament sent reinforcements before the war?

Athens alone defeated the main force of the half-beast army with their own strength, and even their chiefs and great shamans were killed! If the noble parliament could send troops to provide assistance at that time, would the fruits of victory be more fruitful? Will Athens suffer such great losses? Will the wise and powerful lord of Athens suffer such severe injuries? Will those powerful Spartan warriors suffer so many casualties?

That tragic war spread from the indigenous mercenaries recruited by Athens to survive on the battlefield.

The Spartan warriors who never took a step back until death, the Athenian generals who fought on the front line with their soldiers, the chariot corps that rushed towards the enemy without hesitation, the powerful war elephant corps, and the mysterious giant King Kong!

This war full of the tragic atmosphere of personal heroism has made the blood of humans in the southern plains silent for hundreds of years boil!

At this moment, they even feel like they are returning to the mythical era.

They seemed to see the scene of the famous and surnamed ancient heroes leading their tribesmen to fight on the front line at the beginning of the era and fighting for the death of those powerful creatures.

Gnolls, ogres, centaurs, orcs, dark spear tribe...

……………………

Humans have never been gifted creatures when weak defeat the strong.

Human beings have always been able to survive in this world, and they undoubtedly rely on the unity of race! Otherwise, in the werewolf war, a recruitment order for the noble parliament to recruit more than 200,000 troops in just a few months? That is nearly one-tenth of the human population of the entire southern plain!

But this time their actions are undoubtedly a slap in the face!

If Athens was destroyed by the Beast Army, it would only cause some unilateral public opinion at most. But now Athens is not destroyed by the Beast Army, but has won an epic victory! The result is that the entire noble parliament stands on the other side of destroying human unity and mutual assistance. Especially the barbarian humans, who are allies of the noble parliament, regard it as treason!

This time they were able to give up Athens.

If a racial war breaks out next time, they will be able to give up on others!

The final direction of public opinion.

This led to the birth of a conclusion, that is, the great nobles who stood in high positions and were feasted on the grounds of the noble parliament had forgotten the original intention of the famous and surnamed ancient heroes to unite humans to help each other for their own selfish interests!

……………………

The beginning and end of a war are often more complicated than the process, because the process only requires killing and winning.

The problem that the aristocratic parliament broke out in the rescue of Athens was the estrangement of the barbarians in the northwest and the collapse of the nobles on the front line of the southern plains. The abandonment of rescue of Athens not only made the barbarian humans feel disappointed, but also made the small and medium-sized aristocratic lords whose territories were on the front line. Because in their territory, if war breaks out in the future, it will be on the edge of the front line.

If the nobles' parliament does not send troops to rescue them, then their result may be...

They are not as powerful as Athens, nor are they the Spartan warriors who fearlessly die!

In fact, it starts on May 20th.

That is, before the document printed with the seals of the three nobles of the noble parliament was sent to Athens, more than a dozen small and medium-sized nobles with territories on the front line came to Athens to visit Murphy.

So, outside the noble council.

Another alliance formed by sixteen small and medium-sized nobles north of the southern plains was secretly born.

The future direction of human beings begins to appear!

The orc battle.

Athens suffered huge losses.

Although there are many profits because of this, it takes time to settle all of this.

What Athens obtained may be of great significance in the long run. But for now, it cannot cover up the trauma brought to Athens by this battle.

The whole city was filled with a sense of sadness.

Almost all the streets were hung with white, and the citizens' faces showed sadness. Every day and night, citizens went to the temple to pray, and some even stayed up all night for several days and nights. They hoped that the kind and generous gods of Olympus could take in the souls of those who died in battle. Let them sleep on the Holy Mountain of Olympus and get rest of their souls.

In this battle, the casualties suffered by Athens were already a little damaged.

If it weren't for the holy water reserved by the temple, I'm afraid the direct casualties of Athenian citizens would have exceeded 10,000!

The total population of Athens dropped sharply to less than 30,000 after the war, and the number of citizens fell to about 10,000. The intermediate military force composed of Athenian citizens was less than 4,000 after the war ended.

Damage to vitality!

The two generals were killed in battle, with a total of more than 8,000 casualties.

Although he won an epic victory, the price paid by Athens was not light at all.

but.

After winning this epic victory, Murphy's reputation at its peak also began to bring practical results!

First of all, there are a large number of free people who have moved here.

After winning, Murphy's territory doubled. Although he refused the title of Earl, he still had to take back the land that had belonged to him before. After the territory was expanded, Murphy issued a land lease order, and all the free people who moved to Athens could obtain a piece of land for free. This land would belong to them forever as long as they cultivated for ten years.

The promulgation of this decree brought vitality to Athens.

Not only has it greatly increased the population of Athens, but it also has also allowed the barren land to operate. As long as you wait for the harvest next year, Athens' food income will increase several times by that time!

May 27.

The winter wheat is ripe.

A nation needs to be strong and learn to forget the pain.

After the sadness, the citizens of Athens also began to get busy. Last year, Athens reclaimed 50,000 acres of fertile land. If we follow the area algorithm of the soil in the previous life, it would be nearly 75,000 acres of land. Such a large-scale farmland harvest was a very large project in this primitive era, and the workload required from harvesting to storage was simply amazing!

Even with the manpower and material resources of the entire Athens, it will take nearly a month to complete it.

Even Murphy himself began to get busy after recovering from his injury.
