Chapter 525 Good Start
"What?" As soon as Isabel said this, not only the orcs, but also the human soldiers who came along with them froze in place, with a look of surprise on their faces. Even they themselves thought that Isabel brought them here to use force against these orcs. Yes, not to mention exterminating these underage little orcs, at least deporting them from the country
"Jia join you?" Bain swallowed, and asked in a daze after the first reaction.
"Yes" Isabel nodded.
Bain looked back at the people around him, and a group of remaining leaders from other tribes gathered around to discuss with each other. About half an hour later, after a group of adult orcs nodded in confusion, Bain came out as a representative and continued to negotiate: " We have discussed that if we can ensure that these children will not be short of food, we are willing to be slaves, but we cannot be separated from these children, we must at least know their safety at all times.”
As soon as Bane's words came out, a group of human soldiers nodded and said to themselves: So that's it!
It turned out that the adults wanted to take these orcs as slaves, and planned to use these children as hostages. Although it sounds despicable, it is a reasonable method!
They didn't have the slightest sympathy for these orcs. In the past, every time these orcs invaded the Northwest, they would take the opportunity to plunder the humans who had time to retreat to the city in the future and go to the grassland to do coolies. Moreover, the plundered humans basically died of exhaustion. Now In turn, it was their turn, and everyone felt like there was a reincarnation in the way of heaven.
Moreover, this kind of elite orcs are no better than those inferior goblins and jackals. It is difficult to successfully take them into slavery, and it is even difficult to capture them alive. Most of them will commit suicide directly in order not to be humiliated when they are defeated. Elite orcs are quite interesting as slaves
But just when the soldiers were thinking happily, Isabel shook her head.
Seeing this, Bain and the others clenched their weapons with gloomy faces: "Humans, don't get complacent. We are already willing to accept humiliation for the survival of the children. It is our bottom line to let them eat their stomachs. If not, then we will fight!" Bar!!"
As they said that, a group of orcs also clenched their weapons tightly, their eyes showing the determination to fight to the death!
"I do not invite you to join in the way of slaves." Isabel shook her head and said, "I sincerely hope that you will join and become a part of this city. Every child of yours can enjoy the same treatment as the residents here. The food, shelter from the wind and rain, and warm quilts are the same for you, join the army of Gondolin and become our soldiers, and you will also enjoy everything a soldier should have, including military promotion!"
As soon as the words "this" came out, everyone was stunned again, they never expected such a result!
"My lord duke!!" Wesker frowned immediately behind him. He also had some contact with those orcs these days. Although he felt that these orcs were actually very good-natured, bold, generous, and didn't like intrigue, they were even more simple than ordinary humans when they got in touch. In fact, I don't want these guys to become lowly slaves, but I never thought that these people could become a part of their city
As for those humans who have not been with the orcs day and night, it is even more incomprehensible. After all, in their countless years of memory, the orcs are enemies! !
Although Isabel didn't look back at this time, she could feel the doubts and unacceptable attitude of the human soldiers, but she knew that this matter must be implemented today.
In fact, if it's just the orcs in front of us, making them slaves is the best way. After all, the soldiers in Gondolin are the ones who need to win over the most, but considering the future situation, they can't do this!
If these orcs become slaves, what will happen to the population from the northern grasslands in the future? All as slaves? Judging from the future development of their power, I am afraid that a large number of their population will be orcs in the future. It is obviously unstable to use a small number of humans to rule a large orc population as slaves. As the power grows, this unstable nature will become more and more The more serious it is, the social conflicts will become more and more difficult to repair due to racial discrimination and classization in the later stage, and this kind of racial superiority system is implemented now, what about after we go to aliens in the future and supplement other populations?
Isabel has seen many cases of the development of federal civilization these days. It is not that there are no examples of successful racial class systems in the types of federal civilizations. Among them, the demon civilization is a complete system of racial blood superiority, but the model of the racial class system It is obviously not suitable for the development concept of Zuan civilization. After all, Zuan civilization is to encourage genetic evolution, so that everyone has a kind of spirit of princes and generals to fight and change their own destiny!
So from the very beginning, Isabel had to strangle this racial concept in the cradle, let everyone downplay their own racial identities, and aim at genetic evolution!
"Are you serious?" Bain said in a daze, obviously still a little unbelievable.
"Naturally." Isabel nodded seriously, "Given the disparity in our current strength, there is no need to deceive you with lies."
that's true
Many orcs looked at each other and nodded. In the current situation, a group of them are really meat on the chopping board. The other party can cut it as they want. There is no need to deceive them with lies.
"My lord, how can this be?" Finally, voices of opposition appeared in the army
"Why not?" Isabel turned and looked at the general who spoke.
Because of Isabel's power, the future who raised the question felt a little weak when he was glanced at by the other party, but in the end he mustered up his courage and said: "He and the others are orcs, how can humans live with orcs?"
"Human?" Isabel lowered her head slightly, and then slowly removed her armor, revealing the white scales on her shoulders. Under the sun, the scales shone brightly, making people dazzled. : It turns out that she has also mutated.
"Can we still be called human beings today?" Isabel sighed.
"This..." All the soldiers froze when they heard the words, and looked at the mutated parts of their bodies, whether it was bear paws, or snake scales, or they had grown wings like birds. The current appearance is said to be human It is indeed a bit far-fetched.
"Don't be obsessed with your previous identity, soldiers," Isabel said, "The world today is suffering unprecedented disasters. From the information brought by these orcs, we can know that something as terrifying as our empire is happening on the northern grasslands." , All living beings are suffering. What we have to do now is not to entangle the previous hatred, let alone eliminate dissidents. Think about it, soldiers. Accepted by the residents, why are we united now?"
The soldiers were taken aback when they heard the words, and after a while, a few generals respectfully replied: "Because of you, my lord, you are the one who made us unite as one."
"No." Isabel shook her head.
Faced with this denial, all the soldiers were taken aback again.
"Even without me, you will eventually get rid of the barriers and unite together. You may have to suffer a little more setbacks and hardships, but the result is certain. You have to ask why, because whether you came from mutations or escaped from this city, you are from this city. Residents all share a common goal”
"What?" All the soldiers looked at Isabel and asked in a daze.
"Live!!" Isabel's voice became stronger: "You have come here from thousands of miles, and you still suffer in silence when you suffer doubts and discrimination. The local people break down the barriers and finally unite as one. In this catastrophe, in this damn world, survive! Either let yourself, or" Isabel looked at the children of the orcs: "or let your descendants"
Everyone froze in place immediately, and those orcs who could understand human language also froze in place. Obviously, Isabel's words hit the softest point in their hearts, and they were also the truest wishes.
Everyone was persuaded by Isabel to show a smile: "For our humblest wish, please give up the previous racial concepts, give up the previous grievances, the world is getting worse and worse, we must combine all the forces that can be combined to survive together. , I know this process may not be so easy, but I hope you can try it, for yourself and for the people you care about.”
Everyone was moved immediately. The orcs looked at each other after hearing this, and the humans also looked at each other. Obviously, although they were moved by these words, it was not so easy to accept for a while. Isabel was not in a hurry, she Knowing that everyone needs time to digest, she also believes that both parties will make the right choice in the end.
In the end, after an unknown amount of time in silence, Wesker slowly withdrew his saber, and was the first to step towards the orc camp.
All the orcs were taken aback when they saw a human being approaching on their own initiative, showing signs of vigilance.
After walking a distance of more than ten meters, Wesker finally took a deep breath and said, "I, Wesker, the commander of Gondolin's foreign army, the former lieutenant general of the empire"
After he finished speaking, he quietly waited for a response, and after the orcs looked at each other, Bane, who had chatted with Wesker the most during this period, stepped forward slowly, beating his chest and performing tribal etiquette Said: "I, Bane Ironhoof, the current chief of the buffalo clan"
Following the solemn self-introduction of the two, more and more soldiers slowly moved forward. After seeing this scene, Isabel secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with relief: What a good start
