Lords go left, Emperors go right

The Treasure Tribe is located in the Mikulusde Mountain area behind Marianas Beach. It is also a tribe of the Nolantians, but they live in caves. According to the information provided by Clena and Claya, the total population of this tribe is more than 20,000, and they live in caves in the mountain area all year round.

It is said that the cave where the clan members of this primitive tribe live contains relics of prehistoric civilization, which made the tribe strong. The truth of the rumor cannot be verified because people from other primitive tribes have never entered the tribe cave. However, judging from the equipment owned by the members of this tribe, it can be seen that some of the rumors are true.

Osta didn't care too much. He changed his mind temporarily and did not return to the temporary residence to rest in the cabin today. Instead, he stayed in the Gemini tribe for one night.

The matriarchs Clena and Claya were completely welcoming and let Osta live in the matriarch's wooden house. Osta had not yet realized that his impromptu and random decision had inadvertently changed the fate of a certain tribe. If he had not been there, the history of a certain primitive tribe might have ended here.

By the evening, the temperature in the Marianas Beach area finally dropped. It was not as hot as during the day. At night, the coastal beach area was still very cool. After a busy day, the members of the Gemini tribe returned to the village to rest.

Osta was no exception. He took his maid, Chris, and the others to rest in the wooden house of the matriarchs Clena and Claya. The wooden house where the two loli sisters lived was much larger than the small wooden house where Osta lived in the temporary lord's mansion outside the Bloomfield area.

Osta was somewhat embarrassed. As a lord, his mansion was not as big as the house of a tribal chief (village chief) under him. This was too embarrassing. Fortunately, the Bloomfield area was still in the primitive society. The tribal residents did not understand these things and did not care much about the lord's affairs.

Osta and his personal maid, Chris, lived in the same room. Chris had been living in the same room with his master as a maid since she came to Osta more than ten years ago. Osta was used to it and didn't feel anything wrong.

The only difference now was that there were slightly more people in the same room. In addition to Chris, Yulia and Sofia also used the name of exclusive maids to fulfill their duties and obligations as guards and openly shared a room with Aosta.

"Lord Aosta, I wish you a good dream. I will go to the next door first..."

"Sister Gonias, you are also a maid, don't ask for special treatment, just stay and join us!"

"This...I'm thinking..."

"Don't think about it, just come over here!"

Before Osta could say anything, Chris and the others had already made the decision. They stepped forward and grabbed the White Witch Gonias who was about to leave. Gonias' face turned slightly red, and she was stopped by the other girls, so she could only return to her room with a shy look on her face.

After all, Osta himself is not a gentleman. He has no reason to refuse such an advantage that comes to his door. Therefore, Osta simply pretends to be confused and does not express his opinion, pretending that he knows nothing.

Tonight can be said to be the most enjoyable night for Osta after he traveled to this alien world. In the past, because Chris accompanied him throughout the whole process, Osta could not be like other princes of the empire, who could do whatever they wanted to the maids around them at a young age, do all kinds of unspeakable evil things, and enter the palace of adults ahead of time.

Chris is of a different race, no matter how beautiful she is, Osta dare not touch her before he knows her race. After arriving in the Central Continent, the situation was slightly different. Although Chris was still with him, Chris may have accepted the special instructions of the Queen of the Empire, Margaret III, before she left. She was no longer as resistant and repulsive to the fact that there were more girls around Osta. Osta was liberated and his freedom in some things was greatly improved.

Chris, Sophia and Yulia did not go to bed to rest, but chose three directions with the big bed as the center, sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed, looking like magicians in a state of meditation. The three points where they sat formed a triangle formation, guarding the big bed where Osta was lying in the middle.

The White Witch Gonias did not have to maintain the special sitting posture for meditation like Chris and the others. With the joint push of Chris and the other three, the beautiful blonde girl climbed onto the big bed with a blushing face to provide sleeping services to the lord.

Gonias refused at first, but finally compromised under the prevailing circumstances. After all, she dug the hole herself. When they first met, she admitted that she was the new lord's maid. It didn't seem like an excessive request to sleep with him, and it didn't violate the professional code of a maid.

In the Mikurush Mountain area behind Marianas Beach, the Treasure Tribe sent an unprecedented large army to advance towards the beach area. They planned to launch a night attack on the Gemini Tribe under the cover of darkness.

The Twin Tribe and the Treasure Tribe both belong to the Nolantians. Because the Treasure Tribe keeps a low profile, there has been no war or conflict between the two sides for many years. Although the relationship between the two tribes is average, there is no great hatred or deep hatred.

I don’t know what the Treasure Tribe was thinking tonight. They actually broke the peaceful relationship that had been maintained between the two major tribes for many years and sent half of the fully armed tribal members to attack the Twin Tribe at night.

Judging from the scale of the troops this time, they probably wanted to destroy the other side. They didn't even care about the fact that the new lord, Aosta, had stayed overnight in the Gemini tribe. Maybe they did it on purpose after knowing about it.

Chapter 24: The Beach Riot After Midnight

In the Gemini Tribe in the Marianas Beach area, the tribal settlements were very quiet after nightfall. Most of the tribal members, who had worked all day, had fallen asleep. Only a few were on patrol duty near the tribe, mainly to prevent wild beasts from suddenly breaking into the tribe and posing a huge threat to the lives of the tribal clan members.

This peaceful life has been going on for many years in the Twin Tribe, until today it was broken by war. The Treasure Tribe, a neighbor of the Norlandias people who had lived in peace for many years, rushed out from the Mikurust Mountain area where they lived and launched an attack on the Twin Tribe's residence.

Osta, the new lord of the Bloomfield area, happened to be staying at the Gemini tribe on the night of the incident. He and his maid were staying temporarily at the residence of the tribal matriarchs Clena and Claya, and he did not expect to be affected by this war.

When the attack happened, Osta was sleeping soundly, enjoying the gentleness of the warm jade in his arms. The sound of fighting outside woke Osta up in the middle of the night. There was nothing he could do, the noise was too loud. The sound insulation of this wooden house was average, and the louder noises could be felt.

"What's going on? Is the village on fire?!"

"My Lord, I'm afraid we were ambushed!"

"Enemy attack! What on earth is this... Wait, Clena, Claya, what are you doing... Also, did you go to the wrong place to sleep?"

"That's right! Lord, what's the matter? Do you dislike me and my sister?"

When Prince Osta woke up from his deep sleep, he found a very erotic scene in front of him. The White Witch Gonias was resting in his arms, her face flushed and red. She had just been awakened by the noise, and she was also shy. She had just opened her beautiful eyes, and she was in a daze in her pajamas. She looked like she wanted to do something strange.

Osta was not surprised that Gonias was here. Before going to bed, this beautiful girl with blond hair and dark blue eyes was forcibly pushed onto the bed of Prince Osta by Chris and other maids, saying that she was here to serve the Lord. Under the influence of the difference in combat power and numbers, Gonias could not refuse, and after some half-hearted reluctance, she gave in, feeling like she was just going with the flow.

As a gentleman, Prince Aosta would not refuse such a benefit that was delivered to his doorstep, and happily accepted Gonias's bedtime service. Of course, he did not really do anything strange, he just slept face to face in each other's arms.

Gonias was wearing a thin, pure white lingerie. Her curvy, charming figure and silky white skin made her feel so good to hold. After caressing her, people couldn't let go. Osta saw Gonias's blushing face and shy expression, and he was very gentlemanly and didn't force his way in. He just held her and caressed her, just like a pillow.

After waking up, Osta discovered something even more exciting. He didn't know when the sisters Clena and Claya had climbed onto the big bed. He clearly remembered that the sisters rested in other rooms before he went to bed. He didn't know why they moved to another place in the middle of the night.

Chris and the others didn't stop him, and they were obviously deliberately indulging themselves. Clena and Claya lay on the left and right sides of Osta, leaning their whole bodies on the lord. Osta then remembered that it was no wonder that he slept so comfortably before, feeling that there were two smooth soft jades on both sides. Now he found the real reason.

Because of the special properties of the slime monster, sisters Clena and Claya cannot wear any clothes. They usually wear special liquid armor made of slime. Tonight, they are completely naked and have nothing on.

The sisters were even bolder than Gonias. They snuggled up to Osta on both sides. If Osta hadn't made sure that the black boxers he was wearing were still intact, he would have almost thought that he had raped the two lolita sisters in his sleep. Judging from their ambiguous attitude, even if they were really executed on the spot, they probably wouldn't be dissatisfied with a gentleman prince.

"That's not what I meant. I don't dislike you. Gonias, did you tell them something?"

"Lord Osta, can we discuss this issue later?"

"Don't lie, tell me now."

"Lord Osta, I...I confess."

Gonias blushed and tried to avoid Osta's sight, but Osta didn't let her do that. He stretched out his big hand and gently hugged Gonias, and the white witch was helpless on the spot. After being hugged, she had no way to break free from the gentleman prince's arms. The feeling of being pressed by a foreign object below became more and more obvious, which made Gonias a little overwhelmed for a while. She felt that if she didn't compromise, she would probably be executed on the spot.

After making eye contact with Osta, Gonias had to admit that she was the one who caused the trouble. Before going to bed, the female leader of the Nolandias people weighed the pros and cons briefly and felt that the new lord could be trusted. However, it would be quite difficult to make all the primitive tribes in the territory completely submit.

The best way to make those female leaders completely loyal to the lord is to let the lord "sleep" them. For primitive tribes, sleeping in the same bed is the most intimate relationship. Therefore, Gonias deliberately deceived Clena and Claya, telling them that if they want to get more delicious food, they must have a good relationship with the new lord.

Although the two female clan leaders, Clena and Claya, are very powerful, they are foodies and are easily fooled, so they were tricked into getting into bed. Looking at the charming and tempting curves and exquisite figures of these two lolis, Osta almost couldn't control himself.

The most deadly temptation is the expression on Clena and Claya's faces at this moment. They still look cute and confused, as if they don't understand that they can easily be "eaten" by normal men with this posture.

When Gonias explained her plan and ideas to Osta, she used the human language. As the deceived parties, the sisters Clena and Claya could not understand the human language, so they did not know that Gonias had "sold" them. After Osta knew the truth of the matter, he did not pursue Gonias's unauthorized actions. At least nothing really happened, they were just sleeping in each other's arms, so there should be no problem.

The wonderful night always seems so short, just like tonight, just when Osta knew that there was a beautiful woman sleeping with him, he was interrupted by the war, and the Gemini tribe was attacked by the enemy at night. Thinking of this, when Osta was about to get up and go outside to see what was going on, he was stopped by several exclusive maids who were meditating beside the bed.

Chris and the other three were sitting cross-legged in a triangle formation, but in fact, they knew what was happening outside, and they were just waiting for their master, Prince Aosta, to give them specific orders. Without specific orders, they would choose to wait and see in most cases. As long as those night raiders did not really threaten the safety of their protection, Prince Aosta, Chris and the others would choose to stand by and watch.

"Lord Osta, you don't have to get up. A group of ants won't disturb your wonderful night."

"Chris, is it okay? I don't like other people seeing you like this."

Chris and the other three were only wearing thin underwear, even though they knew how powerful they were. But, to be honest, Osta didn't want outsiders to see these charming and seductive figures, and only wanted to enjoy them alone. This prince who was born as a time traveler still had a strong possessiveness in nature.

"Lord Osta, we won't go out. There is no need for us to show up."

After seeing the subtle expression on Osta's face, Chris and the others basically understood that their master was probably concerned. Therefore, they gave up the choice of going out to fight, and instead climbed onto the bed to wait, showing their loyalty. Although the master did not ask the three of them to provide special services such as sleeping with him, they still had to show their attitude.

This time it was Sophia who took action. She clasped her hands together and prayed silently in front of her chest, just like the priests and believers of the Church of Light who would pray devoutly when facing the statues of the gods they believe in.

Sophia herself triggered a miracle through prayer without leaving the room of the wooden house. A dazzling light descended from the sky, like a huge pillar of light, instantly covering the entire village where the Twin Tribe lived.

Under the powerful suppression of the miracle, all the members of the Treasure Tribe who invaded the Twin Tribe were forcibly expelled by the sacred energy and directly pushed out of the Twin Tribe. The originally designated attack plan collapsed instantly. This huge golden light column illuminated the entire night sky. The huge light column rising from the direction of the Twin Tribe could be seen everywhere in the Bloomfield area, worthy of the miracle magic.

This "Light Exile" move is not the most powerful among the miracle moves that Sophia has mastered. In terms of destructive power, it is a miracle at the bottom. However, in terms of shocking power, this move is very impressive. The huge light column that shot up into the sky shocked the entire Bloomfield area. Although the leader of the Nolanthians, the white witch Gonias, had previously informed the matriarchs of the various primitive tribes that had lived here for generations about the arrival of the new leader.

However, most of the female leaders of the primitive tribes did not take the male lord from the Obelisk Empire seriously. If Osta wanted to establish his rule and prestige in the Bloomfield area, necessary deterrence activities were necessary.

This was not his original intention for Aosta tonight. He did not think of such a far place at that time. However, the effect was still very good. After the shock of this miracle, I believe that the rulers and matriarchs of the primitive tribes will have a new understanding of the strength of the newly appointed male lord.

"Lord Osta, the noise seemed a bit excessive. I was negligent. Please forgive me."

"It's okay, Sophia. As long as no one disturbs you tonight, nothing else matters. We can think about any problems in the morning."

After hearing no movement outside, Osta rested peacefully. The quality of sleep was not very good that night, even though Nuanyu was in his arms. However, if Chris and the others also shared the bed, Osta would not be able to do those unspeakable evil things, so he could only sleep happily and painfully that night.

Clena and Claya, the two little sisters, were not on guard and fell into a deep sleep. The White Witch Gonias didn't feel very good either. After all, she was facing the artillery and could be attacked by the opponent at any time. Fortunately, Osta fell asleep later and didn't keep pressing on Gonias' soft mysterious forbidden triangle area like when he was awake.

After sleeping till the next morning, Osta got up and took the twin tribe matriarchs, Clena and Claya, who had recognized his status as a lord, and his personal maids, Chris, and changed their clothes. Then, they walked out of the cabin refreshed and went outside to investigate the current situation of the tribe after the attack last night. After one night, Osta's relationship with these people became much closer. Those who didn't know the situation would think that something unspeakable really happened to them that night.

Because of the timely response, the underground tribe that attacked at night hardly gained any advantage and was "exiled from the light" on the spot. The losses of the Twin Tribe were reduced to the minimum, with basically no casualties.

"Clena, Claya, do you two know the identity of the attacker?"

"My Lord, this was definitely done by the Treasure Tribe. These equipment, weapons, and armor left behind are only in the possession of clan members of the Treasure Tribe in the nearby area."

Chapter 25: The War of Three Primitive Tribes in the Beach Area

Less than a week after Prince Osta took office as the lord of the Blomfield region, he faced a severe challenge to his prestige. When the new lord was staying in the tribe, he encountered an attack from other tribes. Although it was not certain whether this action was aimed at the new lord, this reason was enough to start a war.

There are many reasons for war. If you want to fight, you can come up with any excuse. The one who attacked the Twin Tribe at night was the Treasure Tribe. The two tribes, both of whom are Norlandias, have lived in peace for many years. This happened as soon as the new lord came to stay. Osta had to suspect that the other party had intentions against him.

As the new lord of the Blomfield Territory, Osta had almost no troops to mobilize except for Chris and her three personal maids. Currently, the only troops he could mobilize were the underground tribes and the twin tribes that had clearly supported and upheld his ruling position. The former had a population of more than 1,000, and the latter had a population of more than 6,000, adding up to only more than 7,000 people, not even half of the number of the treasure tribe.

The other side has a large tribe of more than 20,000 people, and their equipment is not at the same level as ours. We are still in the Stone Age, using stone and bone weapons, while the opponent uses a full set of metal armor. The two sides are not at the same level in terms of numbers, and they cannot win even if they fight two against one, unless there is external third-party intervention.

Osta carefully checked the weapons and equipment carried by the clan members of the Treasure Tribe who were dispersed by the "Expulsion of Light" after the night attack last night. They did not have time to take these equipment away after being expelled.

Judging from the material and grade of the equipment, although Osta could not tell what kind of metal material these black armors in his hands were made of, he was sure that the hardness of these weapons and armors definitely exceeded the fine iron weapons and protective gear equipped by the members of the Royal Guard, the most elite troops of the Obelisk Empire.

This can be judged from the feel. Compared with the two, the armor of the Royal Guard is just like paper. I have to admit that the weapons and protective gear here are better, and the craftsmanship level is higher than the average level of the Western Continent.

After seeing the gap in equipment levels, Osta was stunned for a long time. If he really used this equipment gap as a reference standard, even if he went back to dispatch the most powerful Royal Guard of the Obelisk Empire, he might not be able to win.

When Aosta's father, Emperor Augustus VIII, led his troops to the Central Continent, he did not lead his troops to the Mikulusde Mountain Area. Therefore, he did not really fight with the Treasure Tribe. Otherwise, the first person to be beaten to doubt his life would definitely be Emperor Augustus VIII.

"Brother Lord, even if our two tribes join forces, we only have more than 7,000 people, less than half of the enemy's number. Clena, Claya, you should also know that the three of us combined cannot beat Mira."

"Luo Xi, we are still self-aware, but we two sisters firmly support the Lord. We will support the Lord's decision."

"This...you...what the hell are you..."

"Luo Xi, do you doubt the Lord's ability?"

"No, Clena, Claya, please don't sow discord between me and the Lord's brother!"

In the leisure pavilion built near Marianas Beach, Prince Osta, as the lord of the Bloomfield area, was holding a temporary combat meeting. He planned to unite the underground tribe and the Gemini tribe to attack the Treasure Tribe, with the aim of forcing the other party to compromise and recognize his lordship and ruling status.

When the war meeting was held, the matriarchs of the two primitive tribes were present: the "rat lady" Rosie from the underground tribe, the sisters Clena and Claya from the twin tribes, and the nominal leader of the Nolanthians, the white witch Gonias.

The three primitive tribes involved in this war are all tribes of the Nolandias. Under normal circumstances, the tribes of the Sarahanim and the Lonosbil would not intervene. This is a tribal civil war among the Nolandias and has nothing to do with them.

The best option is to watch the fire from the other side of the river. Watching the Nolandias tribe decline and lose strength due to the civil war is actually the most advantageous situation for these two forces.

Rosie had a surprised expression on her face. She looked at the sisters Clena and Claya who were sitting on Osta's left and right. She was a little confused for a moment. Rosie really couldn't understand why the two loli sisters who always liked to play pranks and had bad personalities would be so obedient to Osta and now looked like typical fangirls. The friendliness in their eyes didn't seem to be fake at all. What on earth did that man do to them?

Rosie herself was not a foodie, so she naturally could not understand the foodie's idea. Although Rosie had concerns about Lord Osta's decision to go to war, she still chose to agree in the end. More than 6,000 people from the Twin Tribes were all dispatched. Clena and Claya did not care about casualties, and Rosie was embarrassed to hold back, so more than 1,000 people from the underground tribe also went out.

Osta learned about the composition of the clan members of their tribe from these three loli female chieftains. Although they claimed that the entire tribe would go to war, only men could actually go to the battlefield. Women generally had to stay in the rear. Excluding the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled and women, the two primitive tribes could only send about 3,000 people to fight.

The underground tribe has more than 500 people, and the twin tribe has more than 3,500 people, which is already the limit. Moreover, these men are important labor forces in their respective tribes. If they are defeated and the entire army is annihilated, the foundations of these two tribes will inevitably suffer a heavy blow.

This was the reason why Rat Lady Rosie was so worried at first. She had not really trusted the new lord Aosta and accepted the potato planting plan. She tried it out of respect for the leader of the Norlandias, the white witch Gonias. She did not have the determination to take this kind of gamble, a typical high-stakes gamble, which was almost a gamble of all-or-nothing.

What finally made Rosie decide to participate was the influence of the sisters Clena and Claya. The Twin Tribe promised to provide them with food, mainly fish and coconuts, before the harvest of underground potatoes.

Rosie was more concerned about this. Seeing how attached the sisters Clena and Claya were to Osta, Rosie estimated that if she did not express her agreement, she might not be able to go back today. The Twin Tribes might even attack her underground tribe first.

At that time, they will forcibly incorporate the bottom tribe and then attack the treasure tribe. Even if the sisters Clena and Claya submit to the rule of the new lord Osta, their personalities have not changed, and they are very likely to make such a willful decision.

"Don't worry, I will think of specific tactics and will not let your tribe suffer too many casualties. I am your lord and I will not cheat you. It will not benefit me either."

Osta looked at Luo Xi, and gave priority to how to calm her down. Among the three lolita matriarchs, only Luo Xi was still hesitant. In fact, the Treasure Tribe could not really have more than 20,000 combatants. They were similar to the Gemini Tribe and the Underground Tribe. Not all members of the tribe were combatants. The combatants who could go to the battlefield, excluding the old, weak, sick and disabled, and not counting women, were at most about 12,000. That was the maximum number, and there would not be more.

Osta also has a special force in his hands, that is the pirate fleet of the pirate queens Leona and Belus. These two pirate queens have their own exclusive fleets, with a total number of pirates of about 10,000, and each of them has more than 5,000 pirates.

These pirates are basically combat units, and there is no problem of old, weak, sick or disabled. The only disadvantage of pirates is that their combat effectiveness is reduced after landing. The same is true for pirates. After landing, their combat effectiveness is obviously affected by the terrain and environment. They cannot beat the green forest bandits, snowfield bandits and other land bandits. Therefore, their sphere of influence has always been suppressed in the coastal areas, and there is no way to expand deep into the inland areas of the Central Continent.

After comprehensive consideration, Osta gave up the idea of ​​asking the pirate queen Lianna and Belus to support him. If their fleet wanted to dock, they would need a simple dock. In addition, it would take at least three days to get here, and Osta had set the start time for the war to be tomorrow night, so they would not be able to catch up in time.

Osta can only rely on the Gemini Tribe and the underground tribe to fight. What is more advantageous to his side is that the members of the Treasure Tribe clan who failed in the night attack on the Gemini Tribe last night, after being dispersed by Sophia using the miraculous secret method "Exile of Light", left behind a large number of weapons and equipment that they were unable to take away.

Using these weapons and equipment to arm the coalition forces of the Gemini Tribes and the underground tribes is more than enough in terms of quantity. When the war really breaks out, at least there will not be much difference between the two sides in terms of weapons and equipment. The only difference is the number of troops and the personal ability of the commander.

Osta was the supreme commander here, and the sisters Clena and Claya clearly supported Lord Osta to command the battle. Even if Rosie had objections, the vote would be two to one, and the command would still belong to Osta, so she did not object, and also expressed her support for Osta's command and leadership.

The leader of the Nolanthians, the White Witch Gonias, was only a nominal leader, with little real power and no tribe members of her own. She could not help much in this war. For Osta, Gonias staying by his side and continuing to be his maid and assistant was the biggest help, and he did not ask for much in other aspects.

"Lord brother, I almost forgot to tell you that the potatoes you asked us to plant have already sprouted after they were planted yesterday. Is there any problem? Then they will grow."

"That's no problem. After we defeat the treasure tribe, I'll go to your tribe to check the farmland situation."

Luo Xi seemed to remember that she had forgotten something just now. When the joint combat meeting was about to end, she asked Osta some questions about potato planting. Osta hesitated for a while at first, but he quickly returned to his normal state and found an excuse to deal with it first.

According to the time it takes for crops on Earth to mature, potatoes take about six months to mature. I don't know what's wrong with the soil in this alien world. The fertility is obviously too much. It has broken the rules. It's like turning on a cheat code. One seed matures so quickly, even Osta himself doesn't know the specific reason.

During the prehistoric civilization period, the Central Continent was influenced by the activities of time travelers. The farming time travelers at that time obviously tampered with the land. They used points to exchange for golden soil from the time traveler system that was suitable for all foreign crops and could allow them to grow rapidly.

After the mysterious demise of prehistoric civilization, the golden soil was left unused because the correct sowing method was unknown. Ostabai got a bargain and directly borrowed the cheating gold finger laid by the predecessors of his peers. There is no need to wait for six months. The planting cycle is greatly shortened to about two months, and crops can be harvested six times a year.

Not only crops, but all plants in the Central Continent grow very fast, especially trees. The trees cut down by primitive tribes cannot even keep up with the growth rate of trees. The existence of golden soil was hidden for many years because of the disappearance of the travelers. It was not until Prince Aosta, who also had the identity of a traveler, came to the Central Continent that these secrets that had been sealed for many years were gradually revealed.

Chapter 26: The Unexpected Truth of the Tribal War

The three major races that have lived in the Bloomfield area for generations, and the various primitive tribes have been attacking each other for a long time, fighting for food and hunting grounds (territory). This is normal in the Central Continent. Even if the civilization of the Central Continent is still in the backward era of primitive society, it does not affect the scale of the war at all. This phenomenon has little to do with the level of social development.
