866.Lord of the Hunt: Bastard! I'm so kind to you, why don't you act like me! (Page 1/2)
The Lord of Hunting's Chosen came to Smuggler's Grove to brighten up the area. Several military leaders of the Bloodclaw clan also arranged the place in advance to welcome the powerful compatriots of the Dark Mountains to come and "inspect the work."”.
The barbarian soldiers rescued by them also greeted the arrival of their great warlord at the entrance of the forest with a face full of shame. Xu Gesen did not criticize them too harshly. He just encouraged them casually and then focused on the clan in front of him. In the territory.
According to Nash, Smuggler's Woodland has now become the base camp of the local Gnolls in Transia, especially after the Gnoll Hunt ended a few months ago, there are no large-scale Gnoll gangs in Transia anymore..
As the political power gradually stabilized and the power of the Scarlet Castle radiated to the entire territory, the scattered gnolls who had escaped seemed to have a premonition of danger. They either fled to Kafhokar or followed the Bloodclaw clan's recruitment. filthy swamp.
This clan currently has more than 10,000 people. Of course, one Smuggler's Woodland cannot accommodate so many gnolls. Therefore, under Nash's plan, three more gnoll gathering points were developed in the direction of the swamp. The Blood Claw Clan There are also two gathering points on the border in the direction of Cato.
This kind of scale is just a small clan in the gnoll society of the Dark Mountains. It is not worthy of attention in terms of number or strength, not to mention that the gnolls of Transia are short in stature. The "First Blood Claw Baturu" is a pitiful little guy in front of the gnolls in the Dark Mountains, just like a cockroach in the north. No matter how happy he is, he still lacks a picture in front of his big brothers in the south..
However, the Bloodclaw clan in Xu Gesen's eyes was very different from the other clans he had seen since childhood..
In order to "strategic deception", Nash has already dealt with everything related to "civilization" in the smuggler's forest den in advance, but the habit developed by maintaining order for a long time cannot be hidden all at once, especially This is especially true for the orderly actions of the Bloodclaw Jackals in the den..
Xu Gesen showed great interest and visited the big beast's den under the guidance of the trembling Nash..
It found that the gnolls of the Bloodclaw clan had developed the habit of performing their own duties. Without much supervision, the local gnolls who were assigned a job would do their best to complete it, even those who had just grown up. The cub will also take the initiative to learn some basic craftsmanship from the adult jackal..
They don't even have private fights that are very common among other gnoll clans. Even if there is a conflict, the most they can do is bicker and throw a few harsh words, especially when the guards of the lair patrol over, both parties to the quarrel will immediately pretend that nothing happened. occur.
This means that the Blood Claw Clan already has a basic reward and punishment system that is recognized by the clan members. Although the gnolls of the Blood Claw Clan also have combat training, combat is obviously only a part of their current life, and it is not even mainstream. arrive.
“Have you arranged different types of work for your people? You distinguish them by skill and occupation rather than strength and blood.？”
After looking at a cave used for weaving items, Xu Gesen suddenly asked：
“I saw those little boys recording the key points of their weaving skills on slates, so they were all literate.？”
“Well, the last chief taught us that only dogs can distinguish blood. As jackals, we must have the most basic dignity. As for literacy, the little kid can read and write, but he doesn’t know much..”
Nash replied cautiously：
“The previous chief planned to teach these cubs himself, but he... ahem, died too suddenly. I took over the follow-up work. However, my own education level is not high, so.”
“Don't be so careful.”
Xu Gesen said casually：
“I met Hogg in the Dark Mountains！
I also know what that little man is doing now. In fact, I knew you were his follower the first time I saw you. Only a deviant guy like Xian Lang can come up with such an education that is incompatible with the tradition of the jackals. Way.
Tell me about Hogg.
I only know that it is a jackal chosen by the King of Bonebiters. I am not very clear about its origins and its upbringing. Where did it learn this?？”
After hearing what Xu Gesen said, Nash felt relieved a little..
It had just sent a message to the headquarters under the coercion of Hugersen, but it really had no idea whether Lord Murphy would come. It could only try to delay Xugersen, a guy who was very dangerous from all aspects..
If this guy is really ferocious, it can slaughter Smuggler's Grove from beginning to end by itself..
But when telling Hugersen about the life of Chief Hogg, Nash also discovered some characteristics of this chosen one..
It is completely different from the legendary and extremely wild Gnoll of the Dark Mountains. Especially when it listens, the calmness and thinking shown by this big Gnoll are almost exactly the same as the Lord Hogg in its memory..
If this is the pure blood descendant of the Bone-gnawing King, Nash can probably understand why the jackals from a hundred years ago were so easily twisted into a rope by King Philip..
This guy really has some indescribable wolfish charm..
If Nash hadn't already followed Xian Lang, then when such a jackal leader appeared in front of him, he would probably be very willing to fight for it..
“So, Hogg learned this from human historians？”
After hearing Nash's detailed description, Xu Gesen nodded and said：
“Jackals rarely have the habit of recording history, so the Bloodscar clan has some priests who are interested in the past. My ancestors also tried to cultivate some scholars who specialize in recording history. Unfortunately, the time they ruled the Jackal civilization was too short..
If we cannot learn from the mistakes we have made in the past, it will be difficult for us to grow, and if we cannot sum up experience from the past victories, it will be difficult for us to break through the current predicament..
Alas, there is no hope for a nation that does not know how to record history..”
“Chief Hogg once said that he would become the first true historian of the Gnoll civilization..”
Nash whispered：
“It also said something very similar to your sentiments. In fact, it also left a paper, which was written when it ended its study with Professor Malcolm. Chief Hogg regarded it as the most important thing in his life. First memorable achievement.”
“oh? Bring it to me.”
Xu Gesen took off his war helmet, revealing his extremely handsome and majestic appearance for a jackal. He put his war hammer aside and said something to Nash..
This is good news for Nash.
The little Jackal Chief just wanted to stabilize Xu Gesen, so he immediately sent a guard to his den to get all the things Chief Hogg left behind..
Xu Gesen, as the leader of the jackals raised by Splitclaw's mother, is of course literate. Although the writing is ugly, reading is not a problem for him..
It took a while to read Hogg's paper discussing the underlying logic of the Jackals and the Black Disaster from beginning to end, and he really appreciated some of the points put forward in it..
The Black Disaster is not a malicious invasion in nature. It is just the migration of the Jackals in the Dark Mountains for the right to survive under the pressure of survival and drastic changes in the environment. In his paper, Hogg not only summarized this concept from the perspective of the Jackals , and even proposed his own solution.
It believes that to completely solve the black disaster, on the one hand, the jackals must move from barbaric habits to civilization. At least they must learn to artificially control the speed of reproduction. On the other hand, they must also learn from more advanced production models. If the jackals can farm their own land, Support yourself instead of maintaining the nomadic tradition, then self-sufficiency alone is enough to eliminate the scourge of the Black Disaster.
Although most areas of the Dark Mountains are barren and desolate, there are actually many places that can be used for production..
Hugurson believed that both solutions were somewhat idealistic, but he had to admit that Hogg's idea was correct, because Chief Potana who raised him did this in the Splitclaw Clan..
Although the Splitclaw clan does not grow food in the Ash Plains, under the guidance of Chief Potana, the clan can grow a large amount of herbs and get enough food from the goatmen, and there is no need to fight with other clans for a piece of pasture. one.
Moreover, Xu Gesen also knew from some stories told by his lover Nanak that the reason why the power of the Whiptail clan developed so fast was because the old Chief Singer was very good at doing things..
