The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 1098 Reform
Since the old vested interest groups cannot be eradicated, we must find a way to create a suitable breeding ground for the emergence of new interest groups.

Even if the emergence of this hotbed came at the cost of the tragic fate of hundreds of millions of wilderness natives, in Allen's opinion it was worth it.

Only the soil soaked with blood and corpses can produce brilliant and beautiful flowers and plump fruits.

The new rules and regulations of the alliance have invisibly forced the more than one hundred tribes of the alliance to frantically sweep the territory surrounding their influence in the years before the rules are finally implemented. They use blood, fire and weapons to slaughter and destroy the thousands of weak tribes in the wilderness that they once protected or ignored, in order to expand their own tribal population and thereby allow their tribes to gain more core territories.

In just three or four years, the tribes of all sizes that were once thriving and ubiquitous in the wilderness have disappeared without a trace. The slave trade groups that had been suppressed by the Temple of Nature for many years have also flourished like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. Not only can they be seen busy in the wilderness, but even the two continents in the north and south, which are in the midst of war, cannot stop the footsteps of these hyenas.

In contrast, the population of the major tribes of the alliance, which had been stagnant for many years, has skyrocketed. Many tribes that had maintained a population of 2 to 30 have increased by nearly half their population in the blink of an eye.

The sudden increase in the huge population required a place to live, food and supplies, which could not be supported by the spoils obtained from the annexation of weak tribes. This forced the tribal leaders to reluctantly use the resources accumulated in the tribe. At the same time, it also allowed their production behaviors that had been idle for many years to continue to evolve and grow in the face of reality, and to develop as many territories that belonged to them under the new rules as possible.

The existence of demand and the investment of resources, in turn, feed back to the wilderness indigenous tribes who have just experienced a catastrophe and have barely survived, as well as to the commercial activities that have gradually declined during the two hundred years of civilization war.

The business groups in the north and south continents, which had been silent for many years, smelled the taste of money and started to move frequently in the Mansha Trade Road with the various materials urgently needed for the production of the wilderness tribes. In the face of huge profits, even the high-level rulers of the four civilizations could not stop those desperate capitals and merchants.

Commercial activities flourished again, bringing considerable tax revenue to the tribes along the trade routes, which was just enough to make up for the assets they had lost due to running their tribes.

The indigenous settlements in the wilderness that have managed to survive are now faced with large tracts of unowned land that have been vacated. On the one hand, they carefully select suitable places to reproduce, and on the other hand, they send their surplus manpower to the major tribal cities in the wilderness to earn the necessary resources for the development and reproduction of their tribes.

Because once the buffer period given by the Alliance to each tribe was over and the new charter rules were officially implemented, the camps of the four pillars, together with the Temple of Nature, sent out teams led by legendary strongmen to roam the narrow territory of the wilderness to supervise law enforcement, and began to suppress and punish all kinds of violent actions that occurred during the buffer period, leaving a glimmer of hope for the surviving tribes.

The newly emerging slave trade group soon encountered a catastrophe. The wealth they had accumulated with great difficulty became the property of the Mansha Alliance and the Temple of Nature in the blink of an eye. The legendary strongmen who led the team had this layer of interest incentive, so they were naturally happy to eliminate illegal activities. They only thought that the implementation was not deep enough, and they would not care about the hard work of running around in the wilderness for a long time.

To be honest, in this magical world, it doesn't take much land to support a tribe of one million people. As long as there are enough water resources, a suitable climate and environment, and corresponding professional talents such as druids and farmers, even the lowest-level tribal territory in the new alliance regulations can fully meet its consumption.

According to Alan's observations and research in the North over the years, the Snommie and Crow Claw tribes, which were crowded in a fortress next to the Green Tribe, had basically produced enough food to meet the consumption of their respective tribes by simply developing the land in the hilly area north of Fort Nasir after their relations with the drow eased.

In addition to the various resources brought by the development of the Katol Mountains and the operation of the fortress, although the territory of the two tribes has shrunk to less than one-tenth of its former glorious period in recent years, it has not hindered the population growth and expansion of the two tribes.

It's just that for a long time, the leaders and senior officials of the wilderness tribes were content with the status quo, too lazy and lax in tribal management, and too much land and resources were left idle and wasted. They would rather these valuable resources in their hands be abandoned and lonely than be developed and utilized by even the vassal tribes. The wilderness vassal tribes that suffered from their exploitation had to develop cautiously while bearing a huge burden, fearing that the rapid development of the tribe would attract the attention of the ruling tribe and lead to the disaster of extermination.

Otherwise, the generally strong reproductive ability of the wilderness natives would not have prevented them from being outnumbered by the major races of the four major civilizations in terms of population size. You have to know that creatures like gnolls and kobolds will at least give birth to twins each time they reproduce, and it is not uncommon for them to give birth to 4 or 5 babies in one birth.

Now the four pillars have re-established a set of wilderness rules and enforced them with tough measures, which has added a new vitality to the wilderness.

With the support of powerful wilderness pillars and natural temples, although the wilderness looks very miserable now, as long as the wilderness natives scattered in every corner are given some time and a relatively stable environment, the wilderness will soon usher in a population explosion.

At the same time, the Mansha Alliance took advantage of this turbulent period to build a massive army. More than one million strong warriors were sent to the human and horse grasslands in the south in batches to begin a long period of training and elimination. At the same time, it could also deter human forces in the south and dispel their ambitions to invade the wilderness.

The Temple of Nature followed the agreement with the four pillars and sent elite knights trained in their respective churches to go south together, laying a solid foundation for the establishment of the first regular army in the wilderness.

In order to support such a large army, the four pillars took advantage of some of the power that the alliance would gather and, relying on the existing academy in Mansha City, established new departments such as agriculture, commerce, and smelting. Professional teams followed the legendary warriors who roamed in the wilderness and maintained order in the wilderness, sowing the seeds of progress.

The high-quality grain seeds carefully cultivated by the druids of the agricultural department were handed over to the natives of the wilderness settlements who had re-rooted in the ownerless land. Professional technicians taught these ignorant natives how to grow crops and domesticate farm animals, but the price was that these settlement natives had to pay a certain amount of food and supplies in the next few decades.

As for the mineral veins that the prospectors have worked hard to explore, they also share the information directly with the indigenous people living in the surrounding settlements, allowing them to mine and dig on their own. These beneficiaries also only need to provide the alliance with a corresponding share of the minerals during the duration of the mining of the mineral veins.

Every special area suitable for growing magical plants, every area suitable for grazing livestock...

It’s a pity that the alliance does not have enough trained talents, and cannot form many professional teams in a short period of time to explore and search the wilderness. There are still large tracts of remote areas that have not been visited and have not been included in the alliance’s control map.

The newly born wilderness tribes obtained much-needed technology and resources to help them reproduce and develop, and the Mansha Alliance could not only harvest supplies to support a large army, but also revitalize the undeveloped resources and land scattered throughout the vast wilderness.

As long as this model continues to develop, the resources harvested by the Mansha Alliance will inevitably expand rapidly with the rise and development of weak tribes in the wilderness. The parliament has a huge amount of resources as bargaining chips, so more power can naturally be concentrated from the alliance members to the parliament through the exchange of interests.

Centralization has both good and bad effects, but at least for the weak wilderness that is now facing the threat of war in both the north and the south, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.

As the reform progresses, everything in the wilderness seems to be moving in a positive direction.
