I am a god in another world
Chapter 791 Peace Talks
The right way is to recruit Ilmater's followers among humans, not only because it is easier to promote his belief here with a broad foundation, but also because many people can empathize with him, especially those who have suffered from illness and have been cared for and cured by Ilmater's priests, who are often easily attracted to him and join their ranks.
The Conqueror's Army has traveled 3,500 kilometers, and there are as many as four wars that can be taken on the table, not to mention the numerous conflicts of all sizes along the way (most of which are the Conqueror's Army that conveniently encircles and suppresses the bandits and monsters along the way). There are also many normal patients, all of whom need those healers.
With Gavin's unremitting support, the number of healers under Anna has developed explosively. After all, the Conqueror's Army has a large number of Ilmater's followers, and even his priests.
Especially in the Dragon Coast, there was an explosive increase in personnel, because the immigrants supplemented from there were either the old, weak, sick and disabled people given to Gavin by the dark forces, or the limbless people who took the initiative to find them.
Many of them have suffered from diseases and broken limbs for many years, and they have a better impression of the healers and are more easily influenced.
When they arrived at the City of Faith, the medical system of the Conqueror Army had already taken shape, and they even selected elite soldiers to form battlefield medical soldiers.
Among them, the Shadow Cloak, Life Staff, Composite Breastplate, Howard Convenience Bag and Air Glass Arm Shield produced by Gavin's territory are their standard equipment to enhance their survival and treatment capabilities on the battlefield.
Gavin nodded at Anna and said, "Help to heal them, both sides need it."
"Understood." Anna responded and ordered, "Two people in a group, first find and stabilize the injuries of those dying, gather the bodies of the dead, try to ensure the matching of the broken limbs with the person, and then those seriously injured, start to act."
The growth of the little stuttering priest is not just personal strength, but also the body like a flower bud, which is also blooming further, the body lines are more obvious, and the baby fat on the face is fading.
The biggest change is in her spirit. Although she has found the defect of the healing spell, she still hasn't found a suitable cure. However, she rarely lets it affect her mood and stutter, especially in her professional field.
Life experience is the best nutrient for the growth of a person's psychological age. This statement is absolutely true.
Those natural races who live in a monotonous living environment, even if they are hundreds of years old, their psychological age is not as mature as that of teenage orphans who have been hanging around in the human market for many years.
"Yes, sir." These battlefield medical soldiers responded and rushed to the places where the wounded were most concentrated in pairs.
Whether it was the Leatherman or the Sword Brotherhood, although most of their weapons were replaced with sticks in advance, when they really went to the battlefield, no one would really hold back, because doing so would be irresponsible to themselves. At best, they would not deliberately finish off the enemy after knocking him down.
Therefore, after a large-scale armed conflict, there are still many wounded, most of whom are wounded with ruptured internal organs and broken arms and legs.
The field medics trotted along, pointing to the holy emblem of Ilmater on their breastplates, and shouted in the common language: "We are the brothers and sisters of the God of Weeping. We come to share and remove the pain from you."
The status of the holy emblem of Ilmater in Faerun is equivalent to that of the Red Cross on Earth.
Except for a very small number of believers of hostile gods, or evil people with ulterior motives, even most intelligent monsters usually do not harm them, because if they are suffering from illness and ask for help from these believers of the God of Weeping, they usually will not hesitate to lend a helping hand, take care of and heal them.
This is also the reason why the God of Weeping and his believers are complained and criticized by many kind people. Their excessive compassion will bring greater disasters and destruction.
Some intelligent monsters or evil people will be moved and assimilated by their selfless kindness, and repent, turn over a new leaf, and no longer harm others.
But more of them still do their own thing, cruelly killing and even eating humans other than the believers of the God of Weeping.
What's worse, a real-life version of the farmer and the snake will be staged. As soon as they turn their heads, those intelligent monsters will stew the priest of Ilmat who healed them in a hanging pot.
In short, as a universal symbol of healers, the Holy Emblem of the Sufferer is still very useful. Both the Leathermen and the Sword Brotherhood recognize it. The wounded are just vigilant and do not refuse their treatment.
After making the corresponding arrangements, Gavin just walked towards the three leaders of the Sword Brotherhood and said with a smile: "I think there are some misunderstandings between us. I am not here to conquer, but to help, to help the East Region and even the entire Faerun avoid a huge war disaster."
Gavin is now easy to do with these sacred halos.
These halos are not useful for these cunning and self-interested people, but they are very effective for those ordinary citizens with shallow knowledge.
"Yes, it is indeed a misunderstanding." Sword-piercing leader Duis laughed and said, "General, you don't know that since those Tukan people came, the entire East Region of Despair has been in chaos. Not only those evil pirates in the Falling Star Sea took advantage of the fire to rob, but even those unscrupulous merchants also took the opportunity to raise prices and reap the wealth of ordinary people.
Therefore, we have to treat all the fleets with caution. Only after finding out their true origins, we dare to let them go ashore to unload. It is not against a certain person, let alone the general.
It's just that I didn't expect that it would cause misunderstandings in the general and cause unnecessary bloodshed.
But the general is not to blame, but we did not visit the general in time and explain the situation. Please forgive me, general."
A person who can control a city for more than 30 years is definitely a smart person.
The explanation given by the sword-piercing leader was comprehensive and watertight. Although he took all the blame on himself, anyone with a discerning eye could hear the hidden meaning. If Gavin had communicated with them in advance, perhaps this bloody conflict would not have broken out.
Gavin seemed unaware of the hidden meaning in his words, but nodded in agreement: "The leader's caution is understandable. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, can we let our ships enter the port to unload grain?"
Since his goal has been achieved, there is no need to bite the other party to death. After all, the other party is just a relatively normal local gang force, not an evil force that is hated by both humans and gods. If he goes too far, it will easily cause a backlash, making the local forces in Jugu wary and banding together, which is not conducive to the development of his next plan.
"Don't worry, General. I think we still have our own advantages and can help you in many places."
Duis took the initiative to propose, "I believe that the various materials you transported this time are not a small amount. You can't just leave them in the open air at the dock, especially food, which is a material that everyone is in short supply of, and many lawless people are thinking about it.
It just so happens that most of the large warehouses in Usmer City belong to our brotherhood.
As compensation for this misunderstanding and support for the war on the front, we are willing to rent them to General for free until the end of the war.
It's not that we don't care about the invasion of the Tukans, but we are powerless. Now we have the opportunity to contribute to the joint war. Please don't refuse our kindness, General."
The great leader of the Sword Brotherhood fully explained what it means to hit the snake while it is still on the pole.
When he found that there was no way to stop Gavin, the powerful dragon, from landing in Usmer City, he adjusted his policy directly and prepared to cooperate with the other party in an all-round way. Although it was still difficult to avoid the fate of being annexed, at least he had taken the initiative, could maintain a certain degree of autonomy, and mastered the initiative of advancing and retreating.
"It would be best if the leader was willing to join. We are unfamiliar with this place and do need help in many places." Gavin said sincerely, "Since the leader has heard of my name, he should know the policy I pursue. I have always believed that mutual respect, mutual benefit, honesty and trustworthiness, and win-win cooperation are the most correct ways for people to interact with each other."
The Furen coalition does not simply refer to the west coast reinforcements that are being assembled in the Kingdom of Cormier. The local forces of the Desperate East will also be an important part of the coalition.
Strive for everything that can be strived for and unite all forces that can be united.
This is the gift from King Asan IV of Cormier before Gavin came to the Desperate East.
"General, you are known for your kindness to your allies, just as you are ruthless to your enemies." Duis was not simply complimenting.
This was his truest feeling about the intelligence that had just been delivered to him. Those who chose to become the enemies of the young God-chosen in front of him, except for the Zhentarim, the Dragon Bay Cities Alliance and the Kingdom of Sambia, which were large enough to survive.
Those monster forces with weak foundations had long been uprooted by him, leaving no bones.
However, those forces that chose to cooperate with him made a lot of money, and the overall situation was thriving, including the two monster forces of the Kobolds and the Hobgoblins.
In the face of such an existence, what choice to make is self-evident.
Since the Sword Brotherhood has lowered its posture, the rest of the things are much simpler.
Not only Gavin, but also the Fang Leader of the Leathermen were invited to the headquarters of the Sword Brotherhood, which is located in the only shipyard in the dock area.
The size of the Sword Brotherhood is much larger than it looks now. They previously dispatched only the gang brothers who were stationed in Usmail City.
Not only do they have their own branches in several coastal cities of the Kingdom of Inbutu, but a large part of their forces are located at sea. Although most of the ships they control are small and medium-sized ships, they are mainly engaged in offshore trade transportation and fishing, especially in the Eastern Gulf.
However, they are too numerous to be ignored. It is said that there are no less than a hundred ships directly controlled by them, and nearly a thousand ships that can be indirectly influenced by them. They are a force that cannot be ignored in the Eastern Gulf.
They are one of the reasons why the pirates of the Falling Star Sea dare not easily go deep into the Eastern Gulf and plunder Usmail City.
However, the main reason is that the risk is not proportional to the benefit.
To put it simply, Usmael is too poor, and the Giant Valley has no special products to show off. The only shipbuilding giant tree worth mentioning is refused to be cut down in large quantities because of the natural temperament of the people in the Giant Valley. Although it has unique conditions, the shipbuilding industry cannot develop.
There are not many merchants in Hongdao. Merchants traveling to and from the Kingdom of Leatherman generally take the more convenient and better Golden Road.
If Usmael is as prosperous as Tevram in Cesk, no, even if it is only half as prosperous, I believe there will be many pirates who will be thinking about it.
After having a deeper understanding of the strength of the Sword Brotherhood, Gavin asked with great interest: "I wonder how many ships you can mobilize to follow the fleet for large-scale sea transportation?"
There are many reasons to distinguish whether a ship has ocean-going capabilities, and the main factor is the ability to resist wind and waves. If there are no strong winds and waves, even inland flat-bottomed boats can sail unimpeded on the ocean.
The large number of extraordinary battle mages accompanying the Cormier fleet greatly reduced the upper limit of this requirement. This time, there were a large number of large flat-bottomed boats mixed in the grain transport ships, in order to increase the single-time carrying capacity.
The sword-piercing leader understood immediately and sat up straight and said, "General, do you want us to organize ships to join the Cormier transport fleet? Do you still have so many supplies to transport?"
Gavin laughed and said, "The leader underestimated the size of the Feren coalition. We only need to transport more than 100,000 troops, not to mention all kinds of supplies. What we are transporting now is just the initial supplies, and there are several times more supplies waiting to be transported.
I believe that there will be many people in the East Region who are full of interest in going to the west coast of the Falling Star Sea, which is less likely to be affected by the war.
This abnormal prosperity of sea transportation will continue throughout the war and will reach its peak at the end of the war, regardless of the victory or defeat of the Feren coalition."
"General, can you convince the Cormier fleet to let us join it?" Duis's eyes sparkled.
As a veteran engaged in maritime trade for more than 30 years, how could he not know the huge business opportunities therein?
Didn't he see that the number of pirates in the Falling Star Sea has greatly decreased recently?
It is because of the huge profits from selling military supplies that many pirates with connections and channels have temporarily turned over a new leaf and started to engage in trade in a serious manner. The speed of making money is much faster than looting.
However, the Inbutu Kingdom that they rely on is too weak, making it difficult for them to get a share of it.
But if they can join the logistics transport fleet of the Feren Coalition, the benefits will be great.
The Feren Coalition needs sea transportation when they come, and they also need it when they go back.
They need it when they win, and they need it even more when they lose.
The former needs to transport a large amount of spoils back.
The latter not only needs to transport the defeated soldiers, but also countless war refugees who want to escape to the west coast of the Falling Star Sea.
"I am the commander of the vanguard of the northern route of the Furen coalition appointed by King Yasang himself. I am mainly responsible for contacting the local forces on the front line of Jugu Hongdao and mobilizing them to do a good job in the local anti-Japanese war." Gavin directly revealed his identity, "You are organizing ships to join in, and you are also supporting the anti-Japanese war. As long as you are willing to obey the deployment and command of the fleet, we welcome you."
"How will the benefits be distributed?" Duis asked, forcibly suppressing his inner joy.
"It depends on the number of ships you deploy." Gavin gave an ambiguous answer.
After all, this involves military transportation, not just trade.
"We can at least allocate five three-masted armed merchant ships and ten large armed transport ships." The chief of Jianci gave a more conservative number.
"If it is transporting military supplies for the coalition, I can help you get a relatively high salary. If it is transporting commercial supplies, the benefits will be divided in half, and the specific matters will be negotiated." Gavin made a relatively vague promise.
This involves a third party, and the scope involved is very wide. Only a general intention of cooperation can be reached. More detailed details need to be handled by professionals.
"Okay." Duisqing's smile became even more cheerful. The price offered by the other party was not harsh. After all, without the other party's fleet, their fleet would not dare to leave the Eastern Bay easily.
The pirates on the Falling Star Sea were only attracted by the benefits and temporarily focused on trade. It did not mean that they gave up looting. If they encountered a fat sheep along the way, they would not mind swallowing it.
"Very good, I think we have made a good start." Gavin took the opportunity to unfold his plan in the Giant Valley, "These military supplies, especially food, need to be transported to the front line. I need a large number of heavy trucks and drivers."
"I am afraid this is an extremely difficult task." The sword-piercing leader said with a double meaning, "In our Usmer, there are very few opportunities to use heavy trucks. I am afraid that even if you search the entire city, you can't get ten of them together. But light trucks can get two or three hundred out."
"Two or three hundred light trucks?" Gavin's brows frowned involuntarily, revealing a solemn look.
A light truck pulled by a single horse has a load capacity of between two and three tons. Five thousand tons of food would have to be loaded onto more than two thousand trucks. They would have to transport it to the end of time.
The transport artifacts he built, the building-type chariot and the giant livestock, were all in the valley.
Although the advanced teleportation technique could directly transport them here.
But everything has to be cost-effective. The cost of materials consumed by advanced teleportation alone is dozens of times that of food.
Not to mention that Gavin can't afford such large-scale teleportation, even the wealthy Kingdom of Cormier can't afford it and can only organize fleets for sea transportation.
Duis's next words made the situation even worse, "This is just the beginning of the disaster. The Grand Road in the Giant Valley has been in disrepair for a long time and the road conditions are extremely bad. Even if it is a light truck loaded with goods, it will take at least two ten days to make a round trip."
