The first thousand nine hundred and ninety-one chapters have been doomed before the beginning
After visiting the civilian residential areas and military camps, Princess Cora was of course very satisfied. Rather, she felt very satisfied now.
There are about 30,000 refugees from the Flame Lion Kingdom following her, which is already a very impressive number. Add in more than 10,000 soldiers, and a total of more than 40,000 mouths to eat, which is not an easy thing to solve.
Now, living in these exquisite and comfortable houses, the lives of the refugees can be completely guaranteed. What makes Princess Cora most happy is that Li Yalin has actually prepared a job for the refugees.
Planting and animal husbandry have always been jobs that humans are good at. In comparison, the demons are definitely far inferior. With these refugees here, it will not be a problem for the real demon country to open up wasteland for planting this year. Those refugees are also very good.
They are happy to join the farming industry in the Real Demon Country. After all, with a job, they can also exchange for more food and daily necessities.
This is equivalent to Li Yalin hiring all the people in the Flame Lion Kingdom, and everyone getting what they need is a happy event.
Of course, when they first come to the Real Demon Country, ordinary civilians will have some scruples. After all, the "notoriety" of the Demons has spread throughout the continent early. In the eyes of normal people, the Demons are still devils who do all kinds of evil.
Who made the Church of Light’s publicity adequate?
This misunderstanding can only be proven by time. In order to avoid any conflicts, Li Yalin also specifically asked Uncle Morgan to select some smart and capable subordinates to form a security team to maintain the security of the refugees.
.
Where there are people, there will be conflicts. Even if there are no demons, there will inevitably be friction between the refugees. If the security team is not well organized, if any problems occur, it will not be easy to solve.
Uncle Morgan deeply agreed with Li Yalin's statement. This kind of trivial matter was quite simple for him.
Unexpectedly, when Uncle Morgan was selecting people to form a security team, his daughter Hannah actually volunteered and expressed her willingness to be the captain of the security team.
Originally, Li Yalin was planning to let Uncle Morgan serve as the captain. After all, this uncle had qualifications, was reliable enough, and most importantly, could intimidate people.
If it were Hannah, would she really be fine?
But if you think about it carefully, Hannah is not a fuel-efficient person in the first place. She seemed to be the boss of the Bloodthirsty Rose Thieves Group at the beginning. There seems to be nothing wrong with letting her be the captain of the security team.
Rather, maybe she can bring unexpected surprises to everyone.
The most important thing is, looking at Hannah like that, it is impossible to refuse her. In addition, Uncle Morgan is a daughter-in-law. If Hannah opens her mouth, he has to obediently give up his position as captain?
Forget it, let Hannah temporarily take over the position of security captain, and take a look at her abilities.
Although Li Yalin was concerned about resettling the refugees from the Flame Lion Kingdom, he couldn't worry about it all the time. He could just make suggestions on certain things, and there was really no need to interfere too much.
You know, there are more troubles waiting for him to deal with.
"There are three countries that are besieging our Flame Lion Kingdom this time. Two of them can only be regarded as vassal states. Their overall strength is not as good as that of the Flame Lion Kingdom. They can be ignored directly. However, the Griffin Empire, which dominates among them, we must
Be extra vigilant!”
"Since the angels came to this world, the human army has been retreating steadily. The Griffin Empire knew very well that it was impossible to coexist peacefully with the angels, but they were unwilling to spend their military power to resist the angels, so they planned to evacuate from human territory from the beginning.
"
"The annexation of the Flame Lion Kingdom is only the first step in their plan. I believe that soon they will focus on the True Demon Kingdom and plot this territory that has not been invaded by angels."
"We must take strict precautions and even prepare for battle earlier. There is reason to believe that before long, the Griffin Empire's army will appear at the border of the True Demon Kingdom..."
Princess Cora brought more information to everyone, and her worries were not without reason. In fact, as she said, the Griffin Empire, which has now occupied the Flame Lion Kingdom, has begun to reach out to the demons.
Fangs.
They don't have the guts to fight those so-called angels, but they are convinced by the real demons who bully the weak and fear the strong. They think they can easily take down the demons and avoid disasters in the territory of the real demon kingdom.
If the Demon Tribe had not ushered in a new Demon King, with its past combat prowess and the internal troubles of the Ten Nobles, it might not be a match for the Griffin Empire. At least the so-called 200,000-strong army sounded bluffing enough.
people.
But it is a pity that they chose the wrong opponent, and the enemy they choose now will be more difficult than those so-called angels.
The outcome of this battle was already decided before it even started.
"I understand that there are enough demon troops stationed near the border of the True Demon Kingdom. As long as the people from the Griffin Empire dare to come, I dare to let them come and never come back!"
Li Yalin knew that this was a kind reminder from Princess Cora. The Griffin Empire's military strength was indeed good, and he knew this well.
But similarly, the so-called power of the Griffin Empire is only in relative terms. Compared with some ordinary human kingdoms, the Griffin Empire is indeed worthy of the name of an empire, and can dispatch an army of 200,000 with a wave of the hand.
However, in fact, the Griffin Empire is only a smaller empire among human empires. At least 100,000 of the so-called 200,000 troops are cannon fodder sent to the battlefield without training.
Among the other one hundred thousand, only fifty-six out of ten can truly demonstrate their combat effectiveness.
In other words, the so-called 200,000 army has a real combat strength of 50,000 to 60,000, which is considered good. Otherwise, Princess Cora would not be able to withstand the opponent's offensive.
Although it only lasted a few days, it was enough to illustrate the problem.
As for the invasion of the Griffin Empire, Li Yalin has already made preparations and arrangements. Now there are 20,000 fully equipped demon soldiers stationed at the border, ready for the arrival of the enemy. As long as the Griffin Empire dares to invade the real demon country, they will be greeted.
There will be overwhelming artillery fire and bullets.
The scene then will definitely be very interesting.
"Your Majesty the Demon King, are you... ready to fight?"
As an ally, Princess Cora needed to remind Li Yalin, but similarly, when she discovered Li Yalin's confident expression, she felt a complex emotion in her heart.
Because of the appearance of those angels, the human world has been greatly affected. If possible, she really doesn't want to see any more sacrifices.
The True Demon Kingdom and the Griffin Empire were at war, and casualties were inevitable. She was not willing to see the allies' troops damaged, nor was she willing to see human soldiers die at the hands of the Demons.
What's more, Princess Cora knows deeply that today's demons are no longer the same demons that were chased by humans all the way and could only live in bitter cold places.
If the Griffin Empire really dares to overestimate its capabilities and start a war with the demons, it will definitely end in the empire's defeat. Rivers of blood will inevitably flow and lives will be devastated. Humanity... will surely suffer important losses again.
She wanted to say a few words, but Princess Cora shook her head gently, and in the end she just asked Li Yalin this question.
"Your Highness, what else do you think? If you have any suggestions, please speak up."
How could Princess Cora's complicated expression be hidden from Li Yalin, but what exactly she was thinking in her heart was something he didn't know.
He treats Her Royal Highness as a friend. There is nothing that cannot be said between friends, and he doesn't care too much about it.
If Princess Cora is willing to speak, of course he is also willing to listen.
"No...it's nothing. I just think that mankind may have really offended the gods when suffering this disaster."
Li Yalin is generous here, but Princess Cora knows what she can and cannot say. She is not qualified to ask Li Yalin, and she has no position to protect those Griffin Empire soldiers.
She could only shake her head now, completely unable to express her true thoughts.
"Does Her Royal Highness think that this battle with the Griffin Empire will definitely cause a lot of killings?"
Li Yalin's sense was so keen. When he saw Princess Cora's emotion, he immediately knew what was going on.
With this slightly probing sentence, Princess Cora's expression suddenly changed.
"I don't mean to criticize His Majesty the Demon King for anything, it's just..."
Princess Cora has a kind heart, and she does not want to see more sacrifices. However, she is also a general leading the army, and she knows that her mentality at this time is completely unacceptable.
Being kind to the enemy on the battlefield is cruel to herself. When leading troops, she would not have such a compassionate attitude.
But after all, she is still a human being, and the harm between people is different from the war between demons and humans. She just doesn't want to see humans die under the sword of demons, that's all.
This is like a family. It doesn't matter how much they fight among themselves on weekdays, but when outsiders bully one's own family, no matter how bad the relationship is, they can't help but help.
This is a truth.
If you put yourself in her shoes, Princess Cora's dilemma is not incomprehensible.
Fortunately, she endured it after all. Even if she felt uncomfortable, she didn't really try to persuade Li Yalin. Otherwise, even if Li Yalin didn't mind, a rift would eventually develop between the two.
"I understand what Her Royal Highness the Princess means. Please rest assured that if possible, I will not massacre the soldiers of the Griffin Empire. This world is suffering from this disaster, and we should try to avoid unnecessary sacrifices."
Li Yalin couldn't fully understand Princess Cora's mood, but he did understand what she meant.
Sparing the soldiers of the Griffin Empire? That is simply impossible. It is impossible to even think about it with your toes. The two sides are bound to have a life-and-death war. On this battlefield, there is only victory but no defeat. Failure is equivalent to death.
However, Princess Cora had this thought, and Li Yalin's thoughts also moved. While he smiled and assured Her Highness the Princess, he was also thinking about something in his heart.
Two hundred thousand troops, plus the armies of the two tributary countries, is not a small number. With so many people, it seems that it can be regarded as a large fortune.
