Chapter 108 Licking the dog? Licking pussy!
The night passed quickly.

Duncan finished training Anya last night and got up early this morning to prepare for training the soldiers.

The elite regiment he planned to form was different from the previous imperial organization. Instead of a thousand-man legion, it would be composed of a dozen or so centurions. Similar to the top-tier troops in Mount & Blade II, the high-level troops of each kingdom were combined into small-scale regiments to adapt to the complex battlefield environments of the wilderness.

This means fighting a local war with absolute strength and advantage.

The elites selected by Duncan are mainly those marked with stars. There will be a two-star centurion in each century. The Gallic Oathed Warriors Regiment has been reorganized and has a size of about 120 people. The Indigo Highland Swordsmen are currently being trained and reorganized, with an estimated size of more than 300 people.

In addition, there is the Druid Order, which has only forty people, and the Imperial Eagle Flag Field Army, which has two hundred people.

Because the conquered areas are very desolate and cavalry cannot perform well, a small number of high-level warriors may be reorganized into the "British Governor's Guard Regiment". The long-range troops are mainly recruited Welsh archers, and there are a small number of Saxon elite hunters marked with asterisks.

It is worth mentioning that Duncan actually recruited a group of Frankish axe-throwing infantry (one star), who were a branch of exiles and came from the defeated Frankish tribe.

These people were the remnants of other tribes that Merovingian had failed to conquer, and they had secretly joined the Bagaudas.

Recruiting them would offend the Frankish leader Merovingian, but Duncan didn't care.

Sooner or later, Duncan will go to war with Merovice.

Perhaps due to the spread of the legend, Duncan even had Hunnic horse archers under his command, though their number was small, only a dozen or so, and they were incorporated into the Barbarian Foreign Legion. Although he was the one who killed Attila, the Scourge of God, the Hunnic Empire did not hate him that much, because Duncan won the battle fairly.

Moreover, the fact that he had the defeated bring back Attila's body and the words he said after the battle were all spread back to many Hun tribes, and he also won the respect of those Hun chiefs and warriors.

The Huns were not afraid of death, they also had their own glory and respected strong warriors.

In that situation, Duncan was still able to win, and they were convinced.

So it is very interesting that the Hun Empire wanted to gather an army in the name of revenge, and the target of revenge was actually the empire and Aetius.

Aetius: ???
Why am I the one taking the blame? Why are you seeking revenge on me?
Anyway, Aetius is now busy because the Hun Empire has begun to assemble its troops. If all goes well, it may attack Italy from the Alps in March next year.

The revenge for Attila, the Scourge of God, was fake and just an excuse. The Hun Empire relied on war and plunder to survive, and used its amazing military exploits to intimidate the barbarian tribes in all directions. They needed a victory in war and rich spoils to keep the Hun Empire running.

The Hunnic Empire had just plundered the Balkan Peninsula a few years ago, and the Eastern Empire could no longer squeeze out any more money.

Looking across all of Europe, only the Western Empire was relatively wealthy enough for them to rob.

Attila was not an outstanding political leader. The Hunnic Empire he established was a huge war machine. Once he died, the Hunnic royal court would collapse unless someone could lead them to continue exploiting the wealth of the whole of Europe.

This kind of empire is very common in history. The Macedonian Empire, the Hunnic Empire, the Mongol Empire, etc., all split up very quickly.

Dimensional space.

After arranging the internal affairs, Duncan re-entered the human body No. 2. The young dragon had woken up from his deep sleep and was leisurely fishing and catching some snacks.

Because it ate too much, the nearby fish were almost gone, so it had to go to the frozen river.

boom!
The solid ice surface broke open, and the young dragon broke through the ice and flew into the air, its ice-blue dragon scales sparkling.

After taking a quick look around, Duncan piloted the dragon toward the campfire. He had already illuminated a gathering place for the indigenous people and was exploring more. The North was vast, comparable to Earth's Siberia. The dragon's range of activity was only a few dozen kilometers in diameter, and there were many dark areas on the strategic map.

——Ancient cat-people tribe.

As the figure of the young dragon reappeared, the cat people in the gathering place were no longer as panicked as before.

"That dragon is coming!"

"Go and inform the High Priest quickly." A cat hunter said hurriedly.

Perhaps because of the last tribal war, they set up outposts on nearby high points. Some cat warriors put on bearskin coats. Relying on the thick fur, they asked some hunters to chisel through the ice and continue fishing by ice fishing.

A young cat hunter ran wildly on the snow and entered the tribe. Soon the old priest came out.

His expression was full of joy!

"quick!"

"Go and bring us the fish we caught the past two days."

The old cat-man priest looked hurried, and then directed others to place the offerings on the small hillside.

There were even six sacrificial stones placed there at some point in time, with dragon patterns carved on them with daggers.

More than ten fat river fish were placed on the altar in the center.

The cat-men warriors retreated in awe, leaving the old priest alone, over a hundred meters away. Interestingly, whereas last time he had been two hundred meters away, this time the distance was about a hundred meters closer.

"What is this going to do?"

Duncan was also quite curious. After the cat warriors retreated, he controlled the young dragon to land and started to bite into the frozen river fish. Having someone deliver the food was much easier than hunting it himself.

The young dragon gobbled the food up voraciously.

Soon, it ate all the river fish. Then, the ferocious dragon head looked curiously at the sacrificial stones around it. These were ordinary stones with dragon patterns carved on them, but it seemed that they had been used in a simple sacrifice.

Because there was blood on the ground, the sacrifice should be a bear head.

In ancient times, all kinds of sacrifices were mainly blood sacrifices, and the ancient cat tribe was no exception. They used traditional blood sacrifices and also killed a seriously injured bear captive.

"Are they going to worship me as a god?"

"its not right!"

"Human body No. 2 is just a baby dragon. To worship it, it must be at least an adult dragon, right?" Duncan was very curious.

Unknowingly.

The cat-man priest in the distance began to approach. He was quite old and walked very carefully, observing the reaction of the young dragon.

Dragons are very intelligent, and even young dragons possess intelligence close to that of adults.

The distance is getting closer and closer.

The older cat-man priest would stop every fifty meters to observe the dragonfly's reaction. After making sure it had no hostility, he would approach it little by little, while also showing that he had no hostility.

This guy was very patient and walked for several minutes to cover a hundred meters. "Great dragon!" (Catman language)
The cat-man priest was not sure whether the young dragon could understand his language. It was rumored that dragons were proficient in all languages and could even transform into the appearance of other creatures through magic, but after all, what was in front of him was just a young dragon.

Dragons are arrogant by nature and like other creatures to show submission, so you have to be humble and flatter them when facing them.

The cat-man priest recalled the legendary dragon lore and half-knelt on the ground before approaching, almost crawling, and said in a language that the young dragon could not understand: "We did not know that this was the territory of the great dragon."

"We pray that you allow the Cat People tribe to survive in this land."

"to this end."

"We are willing to make offerings to you regularly!"

I don’t understand for now.

But it did not affect the judgment based on the other party's expressions and actions, because the cat-man priest knelt down and the young dragon was also looking at him curiously.

—Oh! little one!

——I didn’t expect you to conquer a vassal tribe so quickly.

—Look, he’s about to offer his offering.

—Some shiny treasures. God, it’s a pity that you, a giant dragon, don’t have any treasures of your own.

——Take it. Even if it's a baby dragon, it deserves some shiny treasures.

A series of bubbles emerged.

Even if it was just the inherited memory of the dragon clan, the frequency of bubbling was affected by the treasure and became a little greedy.

really.

The cat-man priest in front of him spread out his palm, and in his hand appeared a piece of gold, a dog-head gold, a few pearls, and some scattered gem scraps. In order to make it look more, he also mixed in a few worthless agate stones and colorful shell currency.

The young dragon instinctively felt an urge to act on its own.

Body's instinctive reaction?

But all this was restrained by Duncan. The young dragon seemed to have activated the dragon gene, and immediately wanted to snatch the treasure and swallow it into his stomach. Its throat and abdomen could store some things.

"It's really the greedy reaction of the dragon genes!" Duncan looked surprised.

The young dragon craves treasure.

The cat-man priest in front of him took a few steps back. Under Duncan's control, the young dragon picked and chose with his claws and swallowed all the valuable things with satisfaction.

If you want to establish a relationship with a dragon, food alone is not enough, you must use some good stuff.

The cat priest plundered almost all the gold, silver and treasures of the entire tribe.

But that's all.

Become!

Since the young dragon accepted it, at least they can live in peace for now. The cat hunters not far away also breathed a sigh of relief. They had originally planned to find a way to rescue the High Priest if something went wrong.

"The great dragon."

"As long as this altar stands, we will regularly offer sacrifices to you."

"Even, if you need it in the future."

"We can light a sacrificial fire for you, if you allow us to live on this land."

Regardless of whether the young dragon could understand or not, the cat-man priest said a lot of words in one breath, then knelt on the ground respectfully, waiting for the young dragon's response with an expectant look.

Duncan was also a little confused.

The dragon's language talent needs to be developed after it grows up, but the dragon clan's inherited memory has emerged and improved. He quickly controlled the young dragon, and used his sharp dragon claws to pick off an ice-blue dragon scale from its tail, and then threw it in front of the cat-man priest.

This was the ceremony for concluding a vassalage contract in ancient times, and a dragon scale was the token of trust.

The cat people in the distance cheered.

The High Priest used his wisdom to find a way to sign a contract with a giant dragon, so they no longer had to worry about being easily eaten by young dragons.

"Are you so easy to surrender to me?"

"What a bastard."

"The dragon is truly blessed."

It was not easy for Duncan's human form No. 1 to recruit subordinates and leaders. The cat people just came to him on their own initiative.

The legendary dragon is so terrifying.

This is before encountering creatures like gnolls. If Duncan encounters gnolls, even if the opponent is much stronger, the gnoll leader of the elite unit will take the initiative to surrender to a young dragon and even fight to protect it.

The famous fantasy lickspittles are not in vain. When they see abandoned dragon eggs, they will guard and care for them until the baby dragons are born, and then they will directly recognize their masters on the spot.

The gnolls recognized the dragon as their master, which was like getting a huge bargain.

The entire kobold tribe would cheer and celebrate, even attracting neighboring kobold tribes to join their licking ranks. Of course, it is possible for particularly powerful kobolds to overcome their licking instincts.

Among the dragon's vassal races, the gnolls are the most loyal.

The north is still too cold.

In such a cold climate, many weak races cannot survive, and the cat tribe also has a very difficult time living here.
