Pirate Kingship
Chapter 347: Destroying mountains and temples, integrating the empire
Everything Byron did some time ago was mainly for the purpose of preparing for fishing in the New World:
"Two "Man-God Covenants" were signed, belonging to [Greed Worm·Mammon] and [Mother of Creation·Lilith], respectively, so that they could pull each other;
Debt-invested in the "Bantaan Cathedral Joint Stock Company" that Sister Teresa was still planning, and gradually devoured the power of the monastic priests and tempted them to fall;
The nuns and a group of [Executioners] who were born as civilians in the Star Chamber Court in the center of the kingdom and were extremely short of money in order to maintain a decent life were pulled into the stock market and locked up;
Using the online financial street with unparalleled commercial efficiency, many manpower, goods, Resources, intelligence, money. Integrate them together;
Use the technology of "Genetics" to invest in the Bloodthirsty Cult. Every day, the equity ratio will increase by one point, and it is just around the corner to replace the position of the High Priestess of [Ms. Leech];
Use the technology of "Modern Medicine" to invest in the Skinning Church. Two days ago, [Fairy] Rigeler completed the third-level promotion and started to take action. Good news should come soon;
In addition, there is the thickest one, which is the [Golden Law] built with nearly 500 city-states and 13 million people in the two indigenous empires as anchors!"
The silk threads made of interests and contracts are twisted into a rope, which is much more complex and stronger than the one they built in Anchor Bay.
This is the confidence that Byron dared to say that he would pull with an old god and save people from his belly.
Opportunities only favor those who are prepared. It is completely meaningless to set out to explore the New World before being prepared. If you are not careful, you may easily get yourself involved.
So, he pretended to be a loyal minister, poisoned the money, and took the opportunity of bribery to pull a bunch of royalists onto the "fishing boat" as fishing lines.
On the other hand, the loud slogans of "embrace civilization, break blood sacrifice!" have resounded throughout the Yucatan Island.
The "Catholic Army" of the two empires has been under the banner of [Lord of the Kingdom of Heaven]: "Break old rules, eliminate bad habits, spread civilization, and establish new trends", and began to divide into two groups, one in the south and one in the north, to cut down mountains and destroy temples against other stubborn resistance elements.
Other city-states thought it was a normal war of glory for the purpose of hunting sacrifices at first, but they suffered a great loss all of a sudden.
Byron followed suit and applied the church's concept of "the sword and the cross go hand in hand, military conquest and spiritual conquest, both hands must be strong" to the Yucatan Island.
And it was not all about launching the "Catholic Army" to violently annex those city-states, but also adding a relatively mild economic warfare method.
Converts will be supported by resources and various military equipment, while those who resist will be cut off from material supply and all foreign trade, kicking them back to the Neolithic Age.
They don't need to do anything, they will gradually die out under the attack of the harsh living environment, evil spirits, weirdness and nearby city-states.
Then there will naturally be "kind-hearted people doing resource recycling business" to receive the city-state heritage.
Bang!
After Byron sent away the kingdom envoys who seemed to have picked up a big bargain, he snapped his fingers and summoned his maid Shirley:
"Master."
Byron pointed at the bodies of the "Lancaster Party" and ordered:
"When you go to deliver supplies to the [Blue Dragon King] today, don't forget to send these thousands of useless bodies to the edge of the world and hand them over to our branch manager."
Shirley responded respectfully:
"Yes, Master."
These bodies can only be buried in the territory, and they also take up space and delay real estate development. But once they are in the hands of his cousin Edward, the [Lich], they are all excellent strong laborers.
Zombies, skeletons, corpses. There is always one suitable for them.
And they all look like Lancaster Party members, which makes Edward feel so friendly. He will definitely be more motivated to work.
Byron couldn't help but give 32 thumbs up for his thoughtfulness.
Then he shouted softly: "Out of body!"
[Dream Execution] was activated, and a brilliant colorful aura shot out from the top of the head. In a flash, it crossed thousands of miles under the protection of the legal network and came to the twelve-story pyramid in Tayapan.
The border maze that had been opened here did not cause any obstacles to him.
At this time, the statue in the temple on the top of the tower had been replaced at the speed of light, and it was the appearance of the native youth he had transformed into before.
One of the two high-backed chairs under the feet of the statue was already occupied by a person.
It was Catherine, who was wearing a red dress, a pair of crystal high heels, and her brilliant golden hair was tied up high with a gem hairpin.
There was nothing major going on at the International Port, but Tayapan was in a state of disrepair after an incident, so Byron could only pull this virtuous wife over to help.
And Catherine's appearance was different from before.
After completing the first initiation ceremony of the forbidden book "Crown of the Dragon", and truly integrating with the mithril dragon soul in her body, two small golden dragon horns appeared on her smooth forehead.
Her skin turned into a healthy wheat color, and her already extremely perfect figure became even hotter. Her long legs were round and firm under her skirt.
There was a kind of powerful and awe-inspiring power in her every move, which was the dragon power emanating from her bones!
You should know that even ordinary "dragon dung potion" can intimidate powerful sea monsters, and Catherine is now on the road to becoming a real dragon.
She has a natural suppressive power against almost all beast spirit warriors in "Book of Beast Families" (Volume 1).
When a group of indigenous supernatural beings faced her, they were all timid before they started fighting.
She is also regarded by the natives as the spokesperson of the divine power of the "Lord of Heaven", and she is the supreme ruler of the city-state together with Byron, the beloved one.
Byron fell next to Catherine and took a good look at this beautiful girl who had a unique flavor when she transformed into an indigenous dragon-like state.
I feel that if she returns to Hattings now, her beauty should be enough to compete with Elizabeth Woodville, the most beautiful woman in the Channel Islands.
If the other party does not have the blessing of the title ability, just looking at the foundation of beauty, there is a high probability that it will not be able to compare with Catherine, who has been blessed by the blood of the Night Demon and the Mithril Dragon.
The beauty of the latter has completely transcended the realm of mortals.
‘I just hope that this queen doesn’t have a sacred relic called [Magic Mirror], and she won’t ask the other party who is the most beautiful woman in the kingdom.
Otherwise Catherine might be in danger. ’
It wasn't until the girl's face was slightly stained with red that she coughed slightly:
"Sister, how do you feel now?"
Catherine smiled sweetly:
“I feel great now, I have never felt better than now.
The random side effect of Mithril Dragon's "greed for money" is like nothing to me. This black magic is simply my destiny.
Moreover, perhaps because of the strong occult correlation between the supernatural source and dragons on Yucatan Island, I am now obviously more suitable for the power of the [Golden Law].
It used to feel like there was a layer in between, but now I feel like I can breathe one with the legal network around me.
Every time the national border expands and every legal node is added, the sense of control becomes stronger. This feeling is intoxicating. "
She raised her hand and waved, and countless golden numbers appeared around her, then danced and turned into a brilliant sword above her head:
“Use gold as the blade, silver as the blade, credit as the spine, finance as the hilt, finance as the scabbard, and property as the weighted ball.
Rely on market rules to govern, use power, law and force to implement, 'investment' is a slash, 'consumption' is a thrust, and 'export' is a cut.
When you thrust forward, no one can stop you. When you raise your sword high, nothing is above you. When you press the sword downward, you are invincible.
The gold and silver flowing in the territory are numbers and sword moves! "
Under the blade of this [Supreme Art], which can kill an entire country, is a three-dimensional map of the entire Yucatan Island.
Every time Catherine made a move here, there was a tsunami of resources and manpower responding to it, bringing one city-state after another under her control.
After half a year of preparation by the [Father of Medical Care] and the "Monopoly Rights", they have roughly established a belief and trade network on the Yucatan Island.
At this time, it was sinking and extending to city-states at an alarming speed, integrating them into the network of the Golden Empire.
As each node lights up on the border map, the two siblings can clearly feel that the [Golden Law] around them becomes stronger.
“At the current rate, by the end of next year, we should be able to roughly capture Yucatan Island, which covers an area of 2.3 million square kilometers, ten times the size of the Kingdom of Hatins.
A true sacred golden empire was established. "
Both of their eyes were filled with uncontrollable excitement.
Of course, a little mild assimilation through economic colonization is not impossible.
But there is a more effective and more direct vertical rule model, or it is given to you by a group of devout believers. Why not?
At the beginning, the reason why the Castilians' colonial 1.0 model met with backlash was not because they were too rough and cruel and never regarded the natives as human beings.
Naturally, this leads to an outpouring of hostility and hatred.
Byron was different. As a favored person of the [Lord of Heaven], he was actively welcomed into the indigenous people's ruling system by the believers.
Perhaps the so-called divine personage is just an empty shell.
But as long as the two empires, totaling 500 city-states, tens of millions of people, and countless natural spirits are wiped out bit by bit, they will definitely be able to deserve the title.
After Catherine settled in the center, she immediately established a system to digest the acquired territory, and divided the levels according to the population and strength of the city-state.
Under the royal capital, they are at the state level, city level, and town level.
Then arrange a group of administrative officials to implement a unified administrative system and a legal system that prevails in all city-states.
Count family assets, measure land, and register household registration.
It just so happened that the Lancastrian party had a large number of well-educated and even administrative officials with rich administrative experience, so doing this kind of thing was just a piece of cake.
Other aspects have not changed much for the time being, and culture in mathematics, astronomy, architecture, art, etc. have all been retained.
It is not spring when a single flower blooms alone, but when hundreds of flowers bloom, the garden is full of spring.
From beginning to end, Byron was thinking about the relationship between the two collective subconscious seas of the Aboriginal and the Old World, which is the relationship between catamarans anchoring each other to enhance stability.
Rather than having one of them annex the other, the Golden Empire must have a certain degree of independence.
Of course, the main reason is because he is only a small role in the old continent and does not count at all. This is in his best interests.
In addition, the most important thing in the decree that does not include drastic reforms is to open up channels for advancement to all indigenous nationals, just like what was done in the pirate group!
Anyone who has made meritorious contributions can awaken their spirituality with the help of the city-state and become a true extraordinary person, instead of only nobles being qualified to achieve extraordinaryness as before.
This somewhat radical "enrollment expansion" policy will definitely harm some vested interests, especially the interests of upper-class nobles and shamans.
Even if the belief in the Lord of Heaven is used to pressure people, it cannot be completely eliminated.
But Byron also offered the possibility of many existing extraordinary people to take a step further - the anchor quota of the [Golden Law].
As time goes by, the Golden Law, which is built around thirteen crystal skulls and a group of guardian spirits with only divinity left, will become more and more solid.
In addition to the seventeen quotas for the [Right Hand of the King], the other positions are enough to provide a two-legged walking possibility for those third-level extraordinary people who have reached the critical point but dare not be promoted.
As long as Byron recognizes and allows the anchoring of the law network, they don't need to worry about stability.
If you can deal with the extraordinary people, you can deal with the entire city-state.
Now everyone from top to bottom is crazy.
"My Lord is the Highest!"
"Whoever stands in the way will die!"
Now Byron represents the fundamental interests of all the indigenous extraordinary people, and he is invincible and unstoppable.
With red dates in one hand and a big stick in the other, the resistance of other indigenous city-states is not as strong as imagined.
Now, the colonies of various countries are watching the fire from the other side of the river, thinking that this war of glory is the same as before, and the bloody killing will return to the original state.
They did not realize that a "Holy Gold Empire" that is benchmarked against the Holy Silver Empire has taken shape, gradually condensing the original scattered city-states into a brand new whole.
Byron looked at the expanding territory and the indigenous warriors who fought bravely for their own hegemony, with a burning look in his eyes:
"Why is it easier for the most primitive human society to make everyone a soldier?
A great man once said, "Civilize the spirit and barbarize the body."
This barbarism is the answer.
If you lose your humanity, you lose a lot, and if you lose your animality, you lose everything.
People can be hypocritical and can be saints in words, but in action, they must be pragmatic barbarians.
Once you lose this barbarism, you will lose everything sooner or later.
As long as material resources are not unlimited, you still have to rob to exchange for living space, and barbarism must be the last guarantee.
I am a pirate who believes that 'force is better than hard work', but in fact everyone is a pirate."
At present, the indigenous Taino people who retain barbaric habits and the Beidiwan people are the best soldiers.
When he transforms these barbaric population resources into qualified workers, farmers, and soldiers, and then arms them with civilized weapons, they will be the most powerful wave of colonists.
"The most violent people make the rules, which is the meta-rule of all rules!
The native population of Hastings is only 8 million. Once I have mastered these 13 million barbarians,
one day, my rules will be the rules."
At this time, Catherine suddenly reminded him:
"Byron, the ridge farming technology you taught to the city-state should be put into practice."
