Warhammer

"Now, I am sure that you can shoulder this heavy responsibility, take over the authority of the Legion and the people, lead them, and govern them. The Mortal Kingdom needs you to contribute every bit of your strength - don't let this responsibility go to waste."

Al waved to the pony, and Alia excitedly stepped forward, walked to her father, and knelt down with her four hooves bent.

"I can't describe my excitement and fear in words, father." Xiao Ma said to Al with some trepidation: "I really can't guarantee that I have the ability to take on this responsibility."

"What are you afraid of, Aria?"

Al reached out and touched the pony's head.

Fortunately, Alia was kneeling on all fours with her head down, so Al didn't have to tiptoe, otherwise it would have been very embarrassing.

In the palace in the Pina Forest, there are steps under the throne, and Ai'er can stand directly on the steps, but in Sahagen, everything has to be kept simple. The ceremony is not held in the City Council, which has been almost destroyed by the greenskins, but in a manor left by a fugitive wealthy businessman in the suburbs, which fortunately was not destroyed by the war.

"I'm afraid of letting you down, father, letting down your expectations, and letting down my people..." Xiao Ma answered honestly.

Al smiled softly and rubbed his daughter's face.

"It's a good thing to have this sense of responsibility. Believe in yourself, you can do it. Your brothers will help you, as will I."

"I want to see where you, my most outstanding children, can lead your legion and what achievements you can make." After Al finished encouraging, seeing that the pony did not say anything else, he turned around and called out to the centaur:

"Mother."

The centaur girl came forward, raised her big hand and touched the pony's head.

"Well done." She affirmed.

Alina is Xiao Ma's aunt. Her mother and Xiao Ma's mother's mother are sisters, and their husbands are brothers, and they have a very close relationship.

However, Alina's parents died early, in battles with Chaos Beastmen and Greenskins respectively. This is one of the reasons why Alina stepped onto the battlefield so early and showed extreme cruelty to the enemy.

After Alina's mother died, she was taken care of by her aunt for a while, and also lived with Xiao Ma's biological mother for a long time.

However, Alina's feelings towards these old blood ties were relatively weak. After all, she was semi-exiled from the tribe. After killing the chief, she left and no one dared to stop her. After returning, she didn't even dare to provoke a Slaanesh madman like Zaken. She had become a believer of the "evil god", and few people dared to approach her.

As for Xiao Ma, Alina has one thing that has always bothered her:

The pony's biological mother is her sister. The pony was given blood through the Natal Rock during the gestation period and then gave birth to the heir of Aiur.

It can also be said that he is the child of Al and his centaur wife, Sister Alina.

And after Alina and her adopted son had worked so hard for so long, they still hadn't seen any results. Even if they filled the horse's stomach, it would only give her a bunch of DNA from the Eternal Chosen.

Alina mentioned this to Al several times, but the response she got through the Four Mothers was: they would have a child, but it was not time to conceive yet.

The Centaur Girl once wanted to have an El child through the Natal Rock, but she was warned that doing so would greatly damage the power of this magical object and had to give up.

After Al went to great lengths to appease his adoptive mother, the matter was dropped. After all, although Alina liked children, she already had one, and was just stimulated to want another one with Al. If she really gave birth to the child, it would probably be...

She definitely has no interest in taking care of the baby, so she probably leaves it to the mother sheep.

Xiao Ma certainly didn't know all this. She had always admired her aunt Alina, who was the most powerful warrior in the tribe. The latter was also their young father's adoptive mother, and her status was equivalent to that of the Thirteenth Prince's adoptive mother, the Regent. However, the Thirteenth Prince's adoptive mother mainly handled domestic affairs, while Alina was better at military affairs.

But whether it is Beastmen or Chaos elements, or under the tribal system, the most likely thing to emerge is the worship of the strong.

Even though Alina is aloof, arrogant, only close to El, does not have a personal guard, and does not accept followers, she still has a huge influence among the people of the tribe. Even if we put aside the additional elements such as El's adoptive mother and spouse, the centaur girl's influence is still the highest besides El.

This is the prestige that comes with force.

Sometimes, Al even felt that he had become a femme fatale, ruining Alina's sweet love. Back then, Alina was a terrifying monster who could slaughter an entire army of hunters in the woods with just one hammer, but now that she was restrained by him, she could not even show her strength on the battlefield.

Al also knew about the pony's worship of the centaur girl. This worship was even different from the respect for him as a father. It contained a kind of admiration, respect and yearning from the newcomers to the old, and from the successors to the predecessors.

So he specially asked Ma Niang to come and encourage Xiao Ma.

On the other side, two small hooded men stood to Al's left.

Riven and Dale are the bunny sisters.

They prefer to hide their true appearance, except when alone with Al and his brothers.

Although Al did not quite agree, he supported it.

The Ravendel sisters are two very beautiful, dumb and unarmed rabbit girls. If outsiders saw their appearance, they probably wouldn't even have the slightest bit of vigilance until a sword pierced their chest.

Hiding the true identity is actually more conducive to deterrence.

Al praised them a few words as usual, but it was not convenient to hold them up high in front of so many subordinates. Otherwise, he would definitely hold one on each side in private. If Alia was happy, she might even ask her little father to ride on her and take the two bunny girls out for a ride.

Then the two flags that were hastily made were handed over by Aiur and Alina to the two heirs (Rivendell was counted as one).

"As I said before."

"'In the future, if there are more outstanding people in the tribe, they will continue to build the legion and expand the foundation in the order of fifth, sixth, seventh, and so on.' Today, you are here to witness it."

"With my daughter, Alia El, as the leader of the legion, the fifth legion, the Sons of Thunder and Fire, is established."

"With my daughter, Ravendel El, as the leader of the legion, the Sixth Legion, Shadowwatch, is established."

"The central plain, from the Gedaz River in the west to Tagus in the east, will be the garrison. After our army returns to Pina in the south, we will select people from the tribe to fill in and form the foundation of the Fifth Legion."

"The first legion is based in the southeastern city of Emogla; the second legion is based in the northeastern city of Vizea; the third legion is based in the southwest city of Permoz."

"The Fourth and Sixth Legions will not be stationed for the time being. We will make arrangements after we return to Pina in the south."

The four mentioned sons walked out of the queue, stood beside the new brothers, and accepted their father's arrangements together.

This arrangement has been communicated in advance with many of the descendants. In addition to Pony and Bunny Girl, Misha, Kael'thas, and Barbatos also agreed with this after communicating with their father for a long time.

And there is the wolf girl.

Hera was very happy after knowing that he didn't have to be like his other brothers (temporarily) and run to some remote place (from Hera's perspective) with his subordinates to manage a group of humans, where it would be inconvenient for them to fight, and he couldn't run to his father's bedroom every day and stick to El before and after the Centaur Girl accepted her filial piety.

They even take this as a reward, feeling lucky that they don't have to be sent out to deal with a bunch of troubles that make them feel overwhelmed.

However, Al had other plans for the wolf girl and her highly K-ized wolves.

No matter how much he liked the big wolf girl, he couldn't allow thousands or tens of thousands of manpower to be wasted. If that happened, he might as well change the legion leader as soon as possible and keep the wolf girl by his side.

139. The Partition of Sahagen

After the enfeoffment ceremony of Sahagen, El did not continue to waste time in the north. There were military mages in the elven expeditionary force, and mages and the Grand Sister of the Scholar Council and their followers among the Estalia. After careful consideration, it was found that the north did not seem to need El's personal energy anymore. So after the enfeoffment, El did not stay any longer, and took his family south amid the heartfelt gratitude of the people of Sahagen.

Only two of their descendants, Barbatos and Kael'thas, were teleported to Vizea with a group of people. They wanted to make some handovers. Barbatos, who already had a certain reputation and popular support in the northeast, was moved to the south. Letting Kael'thas take over was a plan that Ai'er made after serious consideration.

Kael'thas is extremely talented in domestic affairs, and has the most political skills among all his descendants, although this is only a side effect of his pursuit of knowledge.

Unlike the southern areas controlled by the tribe, Vizia's old system was broken once. During the reconstruction process, Aiel intentionally added sand and selected materials that suited his taste to recast it. The internal environment is relatively clearer than before.

After all, Vizia is the second largest city in the north, with a population of hundreds of thousands and a mixed crowd. El is not too sure about leaving a person with the character of Barbatos here. Moreover, the legion stationed here is isolated in the northeast, which is a great test for the political and diplomatic abilities of the legion leader. Barbatos may have full diplomatic affinity, but the open and hidden attacks in the shadows may not be easy to guard against.

And the land issue of Carcassonne is also a big problem, which needs to be taken care of by the capable second son.

So Al swapped the second and third brothers. The second brother, who had better internal affairs ability, went to govern the northeast, and the third brother, who was more friendly, went to Permoz, as a mascot and symbol of charm to unite the cities in the southwest.

As the eldest daughter, Misha and the First Legion can actually be responsible for this position, but after some consideration, Al decided to let Niu Niu be closer. The fertile land in the southeast has a large population, and there are still many remnants of radical elements in the National Salvation Association active there. In addition, the land and sea are close to Tirell, so Al also needs a powerful legion to garrison here.

El's plan for Alia is to use it as a mobile corps that maintains a strong "beastman attribute", leaving the Great Plains to the ponies to develop. It will be located in the south, able to quickly return to Pina Forest to the north and then support Kael'thas, and to the southeast to enter Margarita and to the west to enter Port of Bermoz.

As for the wolf girl and the rabbit girl, the number of the rabbit girl's army will be very small. El's conception of Shadowwatch is a specialized combat force focusing on assassination, destruction, and special operations.

The same goes for Hera's Black Iron Wolves. The personalities and expertise of these three offspring destined their legion to be unsuitable for all-round development, and they gradually developed their own characteristics.

The wolf girl thinks about fighting every day and acts silly and cute in front of Al.

The three sisters, the gloomy rabbits, are the most cruel and brutal of all the descendants when dealing with enemies, even potential enemies. They executed more than a dozen members of the National Salvation Association and tortured them for information without batting an eyelid. They did not look as cute as when Barbatos and El asked for a hug.

Moreover, none of them like to get involved in too many things, so Ai'er simply prepared these two legions as a battle group and a special battle group for the time being. The wolf girl's pack of wolves has always had this attribute anyway. At most, they would be restrained when fighting in the past, but in the future, there may be less control from Ai'er, allowing them to vent their strong fighting spirit and energy.

Shadow Watch has a ready-made Shadow Servants force to use. It was originally commanded by the Bunny Sisters, and now it has been officially upgraded to a legion. Al plans to transfer some personnel from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to the Bunny Sisters, and the general arrangement will be complete.

He gave the legions a high degree of autonomy.

The descendants manage the local area themselves, can recruit personnel at will, and can implement their own policies based on the regulations promoted by El. Even the most important thing, the legion system can make changes that they think are feasible. As long as the combat effectiveness can be guaranteed, El will not interfere.

Of course, all of this will be under the supervision of their father. Aiel will give each legion of his descendants the independence to develop freely while controlling the place for him, but he will also ensure that their saplings will not grow crooked or mutilated, and become rotten wood that is unusable, which would deviate from the purpose of his establishing the legion.

A feudal ceremony divided the northern and southern regions of Estalia that the tribe had swallowed up into several pieces. From a human perspective, it seemed that splitting up a unified kingdom was not a good thing, but for a tribe that had expanded its territory ten times its own and brought dozens of times its own population under its rule, this was something it had to do.

To use the terminology of the game, it has over-expanded too much, and now it is just taking shortcuts (under the banner of the coalition) so not too many problems have been exposed for the time being. El urgently needs a way to avoid excessive or even complete reliance on the Estalia to establish a governance institution, at least in the initial stage.

The cold reception given to the tribe by the Bilbaris made Al realize something.

Most of the flattery and praise he had enjoyed in the South in the past were not necessarily sincere.

Many Estalia people still discriminate against Beastmen.

If he relied entirely on the power of the Estalia to rebuild the place, then El would be helping the Estalia to restore the operation of the state machine, and he could not ensure that this machine would be completely loyal and serve him in subsequent conflicts and disputes.

The South was devastated, with no manpower and no army, so it surrendered and accepted the arrival of the Allied Forces very smoothly. But what if they had?

El didn't want to take any risk. Estalia had already been half-crippled. For them and the tribe, the best outcome would be for El to take over smoothly and completely control the Pearl of the South - Margarita.

Not giving those who might rise up in rebellion the opportunity to start a war here will benefit you, me and everyone else.

This was Al's idea.

The basic national policy of his country is equality among all races and equal treatment - equality before the Four Mothers' faith and under the rule of Aiel.

But certainly, sometimes some people, some races, are more equal than others.

After all, Ai'er conquered the world with the help of beastmen.

If he had 200,000 very loyal and reliable new human troops under his command, he could also roam the south without any worries.

But due to various reasons, the power he possesses, if only the human part is counted, is still very small compared to the much larger base of the Estalia people.

Al decided to go south this time. After completing the decision, he had to do two things at the same time:

Resume production and then expand the army.

As for how to implement these two somewhat contradictory policies, Al already had a plan in mind and hoped that everything would go smoothly.

Now, here are the things that lie ahead:

Come back home!

Pina Forest!

Chapter 140: Rejoice, for I have returned!

Once again.

If you don't return home when you are rich and powerful, it's like walking in the night in fine clothes.

When the Aiel army returned last time, he had become the (acting) regent of Estalia.

However, the title of King at the end refers to the tribe.

This time, they returned in triumph. The coalition forces had just marched north and crushed an enemy that was several times larger than themselves, turning the arrogant greenskin army into ashes. The remaining enemy forces fled in all directions, in a state of panic all day long.

This big victory was a blow to Bill Barry, whose vitality was severely damaged. Even if he wanted to laugh, it would affect the internal injuries on his face and body.

But for the South which had been liberated for some time and free from the interference of war, and for the Pina Forest which had not been ravaged by the war except for the time when the vanguard army was there, it was a good thing worthy of a big, big, big celebration.

This is thanks to Al's love of using slogans, slogans, speeches and other means for publicity, as well as his high-intensity COS performance that even deceives his own people.

They clearly didn't fight many battles with the greenskins, and from the beginning to the end it was "His Highness Kong-i-Gel, the Invincible Eternal Chosen God" leading his "invincible and invincible horde army" who was beating the greenskins.

He was so shameless that he went to the big warlord in person to ask for peace, and used the fact that they were both "Jingzhen people" to deceive him. He made Mao Liang feel that this kid in the tribe could be used everywhere, and he was also planning to get the third and fourth seats for the Beastmen in the greenskin kingdom in the future.

As a result, they were stabbed in the back by the treacherous boy Al, lost the occupied area in the south, and then failed to capture the north for a long time. Al, who arrived in time, saw that the situation was getting difficult and directly called his parents.

The throne of the exorcist fell from the sky, and a giant AOE turned the army outside the city into ashes without any moral ethics.

And then nothing happened.

The whereabouts of the warlord are unknown, his life or death is unknown, the army collapses, and his allies flee.

Even so, under the propaganda offensive of the Chosen Ones, the tribesmen still regarded the greenskins as extremely powerful and terrifying enemies, and only one of them could survive.

Now that the great enemy has been defeated, naturally, it is time to celebrate!

Same as last time, but this time in the north.

The mother sheep brought her little hooves to welcome the return of the master of the forest and his army.

The little hooves were very enthusiastic and active, running and jumping among the ranks of the army. Needless to say, the beastmen naturally had an almost complete fondness for these incredibly charming deer monsters, and the human soldiers had also become accustomed to and accepted some of the beastmen's situations after getting along with them for a long time.

Seeing the adorable deer fairies jumping around, many of them could no longer control themselves and wished they could turn into shepherds and have an interracial love affair with the deer fairies in the forest. However, the deer fairies did not think so much. These beauty and talents were God-given creations of the shepherd god and they did not have too much emotion of "liking" someone alone.

In their eyes, beastmen are good, and humans who are close to them are also good. It seems that there is nothing bad in the world. They are very innocent and kind.

So much so that Al had to communicate with the sheep mother, hoping to equip these innocent little hooves with a determined guard. Otherwise, they would jump around in the woods like stupid spores all day long, happy about everything, and with an amazing aura of charm - they could perform special attacks on beastmen, and could even forcibly create Fury control on humans. What a terrible power this is.
