I am a god in another world

Twenty kilometers downstream of the Black Feather Bridge, they opened a hole hundreds of meters long in a weak point on the north bank - destruction has always been countless times easier than construction, especially after it turned into an above-ground river due to flooding. .

A large amount of river water floods unbridled along this direction. They still have more than 20 kilometers to go before they officially flow into the frozen land. This is the relatively densely populated Lingyu Valley.

Without the constraints of the river, the river will flow wherever the terrain is low until it finds the final exit.

There are collapsed houses and flooded farmland everywhere. Countless people are trapped on the fragmented highlands or trees, crying in anger and despair, blaming the gods for their ruthlessness and injustice. They don't know, What led to their current situation was not a natural disaster but a man-made disaster.

The above is the real projection taken from high altitude by Regina, who returned to the valley early.

She was not just playing it for Gavin, but also for the villagers of Weizemei ​​New Village who had gathered together. Everyone had unbearable expressions on their faces, especially the prisoner-of-war mercenaries, because most of them were from Feather Valley, Cultivated Valley and Scar Valley, among which Ling Feather Valley and Scar Valley are the most common, this is directly related to their personal interests.

"Natural disasters are certainly terrible, but what is more terrible than natural disasters are man-made disasters. For their own selfish interests, those businessmen in Sambia did not care about the lives of the people in Lingyu Valley and Cuanggu. They released floods on a large scale here to save their own embankments and pursue their own interests. We can let go of the responsibility, but rescue is imminent.

Although many of us are outsiders, the people of this land extended a helping hand to us during our most difficult times, accepted us, allowed us to take root in this land, and built our New homeland, now they are in trouble, we cannot sit back and ignore it, we must extend a helping hand to them. Gavin took the opportunity and shouted to the people below.

"The Lord is right. Since we have chosen to take root in the valley, we should abide by the rules agreed here. When people in other valleys are in danger, we must lend a helping hand."

"Only those cold-blooded, evil businessmen can do this kind of thing. We absolutely cannot sit idly by and ignore it. Lord, tell me, what do we need to do? We completely obey the arrangement of the Lord!"

"Your lord is kind. We were blinded by profit before, so we accepted employment from those profit-seeking, cold-blooded and evil Sambian businessmen. Please also ask your lord to save our family. We are willing to go to the disaster relief in person. We swear that we will never run away halfway. If we break our oath, we will abandon both humans and gods."

"I am proficient in water. Lord, please send me. I am willing to make an oath."

"I'm from Lingyu Valley. My home is near the breach. I'm very familiar with the situation there. Bringing me with you will be of great help in disaster relief."

There is no need for guidance at all. The opinions of the villagers in Weizemei ​​New Village are one-sided. They cannot sit idly by and ignore the situation when they are able to provide help.

"Very good, you didn't disappoint me." Gavin nodded with satisfaction and said, "Craig is following orders."

"My subordinate is here." Craigie walked quickly to Gavin and knelt down on one knee.

"I now appoint you as the general of the Vizeme escort fleet. All the existing fifteen longships will be transferred to your command. Immediately organize manpower to fully staff all the longships, and then immediately rush to the flood scene for emergency rescue. Everything is about people. From now on, there is no need to distinguish immigrants or prisoners of war as mercenaries. Everything is about rescue. Anyone who disobeys the order will be dealt with according to military law. I grant you the privilege of killing first and reporting later during the disaster relief period." Gavin took the opportunity to kill them first. The formation of his own river fleet is an opportunity to completely digest those prisoner-of-war mercenaries. I believe that taking this opportunity, many prisoners of war will be directly transformed into his own subjects.

The more ruthless and profit-seeking Sambia's businessmen are, and the tighter they oppress the people in the valley, the more beneficial it is for him.

"As ordered." Craigie said enthusiastically.

Leading an army alone has always been his dream, but under the dazzling halo of his father, he will always be like a young bird that has not grown up. His name is not the first thing that comes to everyone's mind when they see him. , but the son of Copperfield. He has always wanted to prove himself. One day, his father can be proud of him.

He feels that the past six months have been the fastest growing in his life. Not only has the young man in front of him given him more rights and trust, but most importantly, he has separated himself from his father Copperfield and given him I have enough experience and room for growth.

Although the long ship is not as good as the three-masted sailing ship, and the inland river is not as good as the sea, it is at least a good start, isn't it?

Gavin couldn't help but asked with concern: "It's raining heavily now, the water in the Asaba River has surged, and many areas have become very fast and complicated. Is there no problem for you to sail on it?"

Traveling on the water was purely out of desperation. The continuous rain had already turned all the commercial roads in the valley into mud. If we wanted to struggle across the land, we would not be able to do it in two or three days. We would arrive by then. , not to save people, but to collect their bodies.

"Don't worry, lord. When the storm on the sea comes, both the wind and the water are far greater than this. Especially not long ago, I just led the team to run several times here, and I have a clear understanding of the situation of the entire river. I can ensure that they can enter and exit safely here." Craig said confidently, "I am willing to issue a military order. If a shipwreck occurs due to command errors, lord, just take my head."

"There is no need for this." Gavin waved his hand and said, "I will arrange a few wizard assistants for you, Aurila, the staff officer, and the six of you will fully assist General Craig in this search and rescue mission."

The six female wizards following Gavin bowed and responded.

Although there are a large number of dog-headed warlocks in the new village, these orthodox human wizards are more likely to win the trust of the victims in terms of adaptability and origin.

"Thank you, lord." Craig's face was full of joy that he could not hide. Of course, he knew how much help the spellcaster could provide.

"Go ahead and do the mission. When you are ready, you don't need to report to me. Set off for the rescue immediately." Gavin ordered.

"Lord, we are also willing to provide our little help. Please allow our fleet to go together." Avery, the halfling village chief of Anbaochuan Village, stepped out and asked for the order.

"Can your houseboats withstand such turbulent river water?" Gavin asked. Anbaochuan Village on Yewen Pond used chains to string together a large number of houseboats to fight against the strong winds and waves together.

"As long as the boat moves, there will be no problem, especially when following behind the big boat. Compared with these long boats, our boats are small and shallow, which makes us more advantageous when entering the flooded area for rescue." Avery was obviously not purely enthusiastic, but after careful consideration.

"Then let's go together, but before saving people, you must ensure your own safety first." Gavin reminded.

"Don't worry, our halflings have always been a little bit luckier than others." Avery said with a smile.

"I hope your goddess will protect you as always." Gavin sincerely wished.

Halflings are indeed shrouded in a mysterious luck. This luck often does not happen in a happy life, but when they are in desperate situations and disasters, they leave a glimmer of hope. After the luck, they are often waiting for a new round of desperate situations and disasters, which is jokingly called the luck of halflings.

Optimists and pessimists have completely different understandings of this matter.

Optimists think that it is just the surface meaning, and halflings are lucky to escape danger.

Pessimists think that this represents the coming of danger and disaster. This is not the luck of halflings, but the misfortune of halflings.

Obviously, Avery is an optimistic person, and most halflings are this kind of people.

"Thank you for the blessing of the lord." After Avery thanked him, he hurried away, obviously to deploy ships and manpower.

"Luna." Gavin continued to deploy troops, "Run to the Rose Tower as fast as you can and ask for help from Ian Druid. Let him help control the weather and suppress the weather in the disaster area to facilitate rescue."

"Yes, sir." After the horse girl responded, she flew into the air and transformed back into a half-moon colt, heading straight for the Rose Tower.

"Chester, you lead the Ede mapping team to mark and map all the flooded areas around the Yewen Pond and the middle and lower reaches of the Asaba River." Gavin prepared for the future management of the Asaba River.

Their Asaba River Management Foundation has been established long ago, but it has not been put into actual operation. It is to wait for the rainy season to come, the water level here reaches its peak, and then make preparations after an effective assessment to prevent useless work.

Judging from the current situation, Gavin and his team were right to be cautious before. Without personal experience, it is hard to imagine that the valley, which is usually smooth and rainy, has such a violent side, and the water level here can change to this extent.

"Yes, sir." Chester gladly accepted the order.

Among the captured mercenaries, there was a third-rate painter who was hired as a painting teacher for this group of Erds. Combined with their innate talents, they became masters of drawing topographic maps, and Chester was the best among them. This ability is meaningful only when it is fully utilized.

After Gavin arranged everything, Regina came forward and invited him, "After all, the assistance we can provide is limited. The most important thing is that the people of Feather Valley and Farming Valley save themselves. I am going to Feather Valley and Farming Valley immediately, contact the local rich and elders, mobilize as many people as possible to save themselves, and at the same time expose the conspiracy of the Sambia merchants to them. Lord, do you want to join us? I believe they will definitely appreciate everything you have done for their valley."

Regina's intention couldn't be more obvious. She wanted to use this incident to let Gavin establish a good relationship with the current ruling class of Feather Valley and Farming Valley and expand his influence here.

Strictly speaking, she is not Gavin's subordinate. On the contrary, she is the princess of Battle Valley. In many things in Battle Valley, she has more say than Gavin.

But since the Midsummer Night of the Fairies, the two have always maintained a very ambiguous relationship.

To say they are friends, they are closer than that. They always respond to Gavin's summons, and are even very active, caring more about him than their own affairs.

To say they are lovers, there is still a layer of window paper between them, and they are always just a little short of breaking through.

Gavin had never discussed his strategic layout in the valley and the battle valley seriously with Regina, because he didn't know how to start the conversation, because after a certain development, the first person to be replaced by him was her human adoptive father, Lord Ilmet.

What's more interesting is that Regina, who is smart, has already seen Gavin's ambitions. Not only did she not alienate him, but she got closer to him. She had a positive feeling of pushing him to this position. To be more precise, she not only pushed Gavin to the position of the leader of the battle valley, but also pushed him in the direction of other valleys, as if she wanted him to inherit the will of the cloaked king Anka and become the king of the entire valley.

Previously, Gavin was the manipulator behind the scenes, making others the king. In the valley, someone wanted to manipulate him to be the king. This feeling made him feel a little ridiculous, but he would not object. After all, Regina had connections here that he did not have. Many things were much easier for her to do than for him to do. For example, if he had to contact the ruling class of other valleys, it would take a lot of energy just to meet them.

Gavin thought about it for a while, shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss, but there are still a lot of things to be solved in the Conqueror Army. I can't leave for too long. This kind of one-to-one visit is too inefficient. Is there any way to gather them together and meet together? It is best to wait until the disaster relief is completed and the victims are ready for resettlement and reconstruction. At that time, it will be easier to find the same interests with them."

Those victims are all potential leaders. If they can use the excuse of resettlement to plunder some of them, it will definitely be a sure-win business. They can earn both population and reputation.

"You're right, Feather Valley is a democratic country. Their way of solving big problems is to hold a valley meeting. All residents of Feather Valley, regardless of their wealth or poverty, can express their opinions and resolve disputes. This time the situation is so serious. After the disaster, they will definitely hold a valley meeting to discuss the matter. That will be the best time for Sir to come forward. The conspiracy of the Sambian merchants will be more shocking if it is exposed in that occasion." Regina immediately thought of a more appropriate method.

She has always been politically savvy and has a strong ability to adapt. "Not only Feather Valley, this matter also involves Farming Valley. They are a seven-citizen council composed of a group of wealthy people. We can also find a way to intervene in it. It would be best if we can promote the two valleys to unite and fight against the merchants of Sambia."

"Then I'll leave this matter to you." Gavin was quick to follow his advice. In this matter, Regina has more say than himself.

Regina smiled and said, "You are the knight of our Battle Valley. The more influential you are outside, the more proud I will be. What the Sambian merchants did this time was beneficial to them in the short term and effectively avoided a large amount of economic losses in the country. In the long run, it was an absolute stupid move. This completely touched the bottom line of the people in the valley. This will make many valleys join forces to fight against them. I hope that at that time, you can come forward to raise this banner."

"Me? Why not let Lord Ilmet come forward? I believe he has more influence than me." Gavin took the opportunity to ask the biggest question in his heart.

Regina shook her head helplessly and said, "If he could do it, he would have done it long ago, and would not have waited until now. His character is too pure. He is not qualified as the lord of the Battle Valley, let alone rallying people's hearts. The only way he can deal with the Sambian merchants is to draw his sword, which is the lowest strategy and tactics."

"I will carefully consider this matter." Gavin gave an ambiguous answer.

Since the establishment of the valley, there has been no real unification. In addition to many external factors, internal factors cannot be ignored. Once you act too hastily, other valleys may have the impression that your ambition is uncontrollable, and they may unite and use force to fight against you.

At that time, it is easy to be pushed onto the road of military unification. Under internal and external troubles, you will eventually follow the old path of those military lords. Lord Lashan of Scar Valley is a living example. In 1356, he unified the Plough Valley and Feather Valley by force, and even occupied most of the Battle Valley, but it was only a flash in the pan and was completely defeated. Now Scar Valley is still occupied by the troops of those coalition forces, among which the Zhentarim and Sembia account for the absolute majority, and the Kingdom of Cormyr has a share in it.

Gavin is ready to implement the military strategy of building high walls, storing food, and slowly claiming the throne in the valley until the day when he is crowned with a yellow robe.

…

Blood Horn

The place where the young red dragon Slaksata's dragon nest used to be located. Since Gavin killed the Eastern Road disaster, this place has been bustling for a short time. Many treasure hunters came here with a fluke mentality, hoping to find the remaining dragon treasure.

But most of them did not even have the opportunity to get close to the blood horn, and left here as quickly as possible, and brought out a disturbing news, especially for the people of Bow Valley. The Sesiren Valley has completely turned into a valley of death, full of a large number of undead. The most frightening thing is that it is said that there is a death knight here.

He is very likely the Lord of Twilight, the Lord of Sesiren Valley, who was killed by the Bow Valley cavalry in the name of practicing evil undead magic 120 years ago. He is now leading his people to revive again, and will take revenge on the Bow Valley that destroyed their homes, especially the current ruling family of the Bow Valley, the Aken family. He will definitely kill every member of the Aken family.

The Blood Horn has been occupied by the cuckoo. The Lord of Dusk has used this place as his base for revenge and transformed it into a huge nest of the undead. It is shrouded in lingering black fog all year round. It is the lingering souls of the people in Sesserren Valley who died unjustly a hundred years ago.
