Chapter 577 War counsil -4

?

Fugon, Debas, Hadyar, and the rest of the human tribes' members stood up slowly 

That's right, the invaders came from another world, even if no additional reinforcements come to them since the beginning of the war, who can guarantee that they haven't already conquered a few other worlds and have troops there? In fact, isn't it illogical at all to assume that they brought their whole army and left their home world defenseless? 

Even if those troops could not come easily, they would certainly come if the army in the Greenland World was at risk of being exterminated, or if they felt that their Emperor was in danger!

Secondly, even if Emperor Robin and his army were defeated here, couldn't you simply take the Grazing Rats Tribe with them and return to where they came from? The headquarters' current head, Sage Emily, just said that Tree Father Hoffenheim's energy stone storage alone is capable of doing this task easily. This way, the Grazing Rats Tribe will be able to escape the living hell of the Tree Fathers even if they lose the war!!

As for the golden and wooden weapons, the point system, the cultivation and laws techniques, how could it be that they didn't want any of these?

It is true that the Grazing Rats Tribe was deprived of their name and their lands, but did they not gain everything else in return?

Every word General Billy said just now struck a nerve!

Or maybe they were looking for a straw to hang on to, and General Billy gave them this straw? They will never know...

"...Arghh." As for Robin, he looked at Billy angrily for a few moments, then started rubbing his eyes helplessly. How could he not know what Billy wanted with these questions?

"Heh~ Everyone should listen up then, this is something I thought about for a long time and I wanted to announce after the war ended, but since my soft-hearted general here wants to give you another chance, there is no harm in announcing it now, even if one of you leaks it, I don't care." Robin leaned back on his chair and began to speak seriously, "Planet Greenland is only one of the planets on the path of the True Beginning Empire. Neither I, nor my sons, nor even my closest generals have time to manage this place, so I will do what every mortal Empire in history has done after eliminating the ruling authority in a country, does anyone know what that is?"

Elizabeth showed her charming smile and quickly replied, "In response to Your Excellency, the word Empire is used to refer to an entity that rules many countries and kingdoms. Whenever an Empire takes control of a new country, the Emperor chooses a candidate from that country and hands him the power to administer it in the name of the Empire, and the Empire would be satisfied with receiving taxes, or perhaps summoning the countries to war if a need arises."

The leader of the Grazing Rats Tribe, Charvier, and his uncle and brother who came with him, started moving their eyes like crazy between Robin and Elizabeth, their hearts were not at all stable.

"Good, this is exactly what any successful empire is, and this is also exactly what you did when you finished subjugating Planet Jura!" Robin clapped and then pointed at Charvier, "Listen, Charvier, right now I can't allocate a plot of land to you because it's simply too small for you to have your own lands yet, and I can't let you keep your stupid name either because there won't be any more tribes in the future."

Then he declared, "When I'm finished on this planet, There will be only kingdoms. Every tribal leader who swears allegiance to me without war between us will have his own kingdom to run in my name. If 10 tribal leaders swear loyalty then there will be ten kingdoms. And if you are the only local who swears loyalty to me before the war begins, then the whole planet will be one kingdom under your care!" Then he looked beside him with a meaningful smile, "...Sorry, Descartes, but you do not count, you are not very good as a ruler, you should understand this."

The leaf avatar showed a smile, "Indeed, I have no interest in being king, I would rather follow you into the planetary wars as you promised."

"This... this..." Charvier's heartbeat suddenly became irregular, his pupils moving like crazy

"You may be wondering, who will be the subjects of this kingdom? Of course, it will not be just you and your tribe, otherwise, it will just be a name change, your subjects will be everyone who has not sworn allegiance to me before the start of the real war... This includes all the defeated Tree Fathers and all the foolish humans who choose to antagonize me, this is if any of them survive, and also all the new treant creatures that will appear after the planet is restored to its previous nature and the plants are allowed to gain intelligence again... Are you satisfied, Charvier?"

"I- I'm satisfied! I'm completely satisfied!!" Charvier quickly stood up and bowed three times. His uncle and brother fell to their knees again in joy.

As for Fugon and the rest, they focused on only one point: 'The entire planet will be under Charvier's control? Doesn't this mean that the Empire will...'

"Since we have touched on this topic, let me tell you the following as well... I have information that the Tree Fathers have decided to cooperate against us and that they will go to war with us collectively if we try to annex more lands. I also have information that the human alliance does not intend well, and I do not imagine that they will fight us AND keep fighting the Tree Fathers at the same time, so it's safe to say that we might have to face the entire population of Planet Greenland if we tried to advance any further... And frankly, I intend to annex the entire planet. General Alexander, what do you think the implications of this will be?"

'Damn, he knows!!' Fugon, Debas, and the rest looked at each other out of the corners of their eyes at the same moment, he knew about the alliance against him, and yet he was not trying to attract them to his side, but rather he was literally trying to give them their share and kick them out? Has this guy gone mad?!

Alexander stood up slowly with a serious look on his face. After a few seconds of thought, he spoke, "...The problem now is that we are not just an army that can move anywhere we want like he did with Tree Father Hoffenheim, we now have territory that we must protect as well. We cannot simply ignore our territory and penetrate deep into the enemy lands as that will surely put us in danger of encirclement. And we cannot advance to strike certain points and then retreat quickly as well, because this will do us no good because of the large number of our enemies, no matter how many of them we kill, they will return to gather again. And if we allow the enemies to enter our lands as they wish, then everything we have gained will be lost and we will not be allowed to live in peace and all wars will be aimless without land of our own... so the first thing we have to think about is protecting our borders first."

Then he pointed towards the leaf avatar in front of him on the opposite side of the table, "I happen to be talking to Tree Father Descartes before the meeting about his abilities and how we can benefit each other. The Tree Father has an existing army of leaf soldiers, all of whom can use the laws, and in terms of all-powerful power, I think they are equivalent to 4 of our legions, and have the ability to create more ordinary soldiers with a little effort, they may be a little weaker, but they are excellent in large-scale battles and protecting borders, they can be compared to ordinary buds... Also, there is a special ability that he can activate within his Domination Circle of control which is the *Cry of Rage* with which he can transform all the plant life in and around the battlefield into soldiers for half an hour before they return to what they were again. This ability is very useful in major battles and can easily determine the winner. Currently, Tree Father Descartes is extending his roots inside Tree Father Hoffenheim's lands as well, and he will be ready to use this ability in the entire territory of the Empire very soon, so in terms of defense, I see that Tree Father Descartes has already given us a superior advantage."

Then Alexander continued, "If we add to this the imperial forces, which are currently estimated at 3.2 million, and we distribute them into armies of only 100,000 each, and we build a few fortified castles on the border, and if we add the army of the Grazing Rats Tribe, which is estimated at another 3 million and providing them with equipment and techniques, then... Alexander was silent for about a minute, tapping his arm, then continued, "We will not be able to invade enemy territory with a large number of forces as we did from Hoffenheim, but I see that we have the full ability to protect our borders, and at the same time, we can move forward slowly. Emperor, we can surely fight this war, and we can win it within a century!"

Caesar nodded, "I agree with Brother Alexander on this. No matter the number of enemies, as long as we are in a defensive position and have our own borders and fortresses, the idea of defeat is not on the table, especially if we hand over the Draco flock to the special battalions in the army, but complete victory will be postponed due to our need to defend our lands as we advance, but I think a century would be a very optimistic number if we did not have more reinforcements coming soon."

Fugon and the rest of the locals looked at each other again, after hearing the announcement about establishing a kingdom for each tribe that declared its allegiance before a war erupted, their hearts were greatly drawn towards the Empire, but there was still the question of whether or not the Empire would be able to confront the attacks of the Tree Fathers and humans Alliance, and now after hearing General Alexander's and General Caesar explanation, they all had to admit that this analysis was very logical.
