Chapter 1359 Your Majesty Is Wrong! Bullfrogs Cannot Be Killed by Boiling in Warm Water!

"Witness the Lord God! Apart from the belief in gods, the deterrence of violence is almost the fastest way to establish order. And when the existing violent order is in operation, subsequent members who join, whether they are the perpetrators of violence or the persons being executed , everyone will have to participate in it, making the chain of violence more stable, because it is always difficult for loose individuals to resist the will of the group. Even a peerless warrior like Totec still cannot resist the general trend and can only choose to commit suicide... "

"Therefore, what can threaten the existing ruling order is always another order. And the initial form of order is the consensus of the people. This is the most dangerous ant nest, which can cause the initial collapse of the embankment! Therefore, if someone can Among a group of people, bypassing the threat of violence in the kingdom and establishing a consensus among the people...then he is the biggest threat to the kingdom, and he is a person who must be given priority and resolved..."

"God bless you! Black Wolf, my most trusted general, you must remember my words: No matter what kind of short-term oppression the violence of the kingdom brings, as long as a stable order can be established and the Mayan tribes can settle down, then the various tribes will The tribal people will slowly choose to accept it! This kind of stability is an expectation for the future, and when it comes to action, it is stable spring plowing and autumn harvest, which is above all else! With food, people's hearts will be stable. Humans and tribes that can survive usually will not rise up to resist and fight to the death..."

"While ensuring farming, what you need to be most wary of is always the Mayan gods and priests! Because only they can gather the traditional consensus of the Mayan tribe and stir up a group of people to threaten the order of the kingdom! Sometimes, Weapons of criticism cannot replace weapons of criticism. And the restoration of order is never about treating guests to dinner! The more blood shed by the upper class will save the lives of the lower class..."

There is no winter in the tropical Maya, only the warm autumn of December and ever-blooming flowers. The black wolf Toltec sat cross-legged under the flower tree, with a jar of scented tea beside him and a long letter in his hand. Whether it's tea or letters, they are all sent by Shulot from the army on the southern expedition. And "faith" is instruction, and "tea" is warning, letting him be less murderous, drink less, think more, and see things more clearly.

"Niu Lang! Come here and make me another pot of tea!..."

“…”

The stocky prairie warrior Niu Lang groaned, holding a boiling copper kettle, and lowered his head to fill the black wolf with water. In just a few days, the emblem of the Lord God was engraved on his forehead, and his demeanor became much more honest, as if he was a different person. And his current identity is indeed different from before. He has become Black Wolf's personal guard, leading a small team, and can be regarded as a low-level officer or the leader of the tribe.

Throughout Port Ekab, the five hundred newly arrived barbarians have been scattered everywhere. They put on leather armor, picked up spears and axes, and under the command of the kingdom's warriors, passively integrated into the "violent ruling order"!

These grassland barbarians do not have any common language with the Mayan tribes. They do not even understand their own languages, let alone the connection between ancestors and beliefs. Naturally, they cannot be bribed at all and will only follow the existing order of the kingdom. In the eyes of the local Maya tribe, there is no doubt that they are an integral part of the kingdom's military force, ferocious and powerful "plateau barbarians" who suppress city-states!

"Witness the Lord God! With the kingdom's force, it is not difficult to conquer the Mayan tribes. The real difficulty is the maintenance of the conquest and the assimilation of the Mayan tribes... When the kingdom occupies a city-state, it needs to think carefully. Who Who will truly support us? Who will benefit from our rule and who will maintain it?

"Order needs to be continuously deepened, and big trees cannot grow overnight... First win over the cooperative Mayan nobles, and deal with the rebellious nobles. Then win over the believers who are willing to convert, and deal with the believers who are unwilling to convert. In these determinations and differentiations , in the process of solving the enemy, distribute wealth and land from the upper level to the lower level to cultivate the initial base, and the same is true for preaching, cultivating devout believers and digging out the roots of the old forces!

"The rule of the kingdom must be deepened, and the struggle must not stop! After we have the basic base at the bottom, we can go further and attack the Mayan nobles who did not resist at first, but have too much power and influence. Because they are just afraid of the kingdom. Forced to accept compromise, rather than without resistance, they are a hidden danger to rule, able to unite the consensus of the Mayans and set off a storm that disrupts order..."

"So, when the time is right, separate a group of enemies who 'disrespect the Lord God, destroy order, and oppress the tribe' and continue to deal with them! Continue to distribute the benefits they occupy to some of the lower classes to obtain more basic rights of the kingdom. Keep pushing forward like this... Don't identify too many enemies at once, and don't be timid! This is the skill you lack the most, Black Wolf, so that the bullfrog won't jump out of the pot... "

"Measurement? Heat? Boiling a bullfrog in warm water?"

Hei Lang put down the letter and frowned, thinking hard. However, although the theory is difficult to understand, he is a good practitioner and always does what he says!

"Niu Lang! Niu Lang!..."

"."

"Go out and catch some bullfrogs from the surrounding ponds! The kind that croak!..."

"...?"

"Go! Catch them and throw them into a pot to cook! I want to see if they can jump over the pot!..."

"."

The prairie warrior Niulang was speechless for a moment, but still turned around and left the yard. When he came back, he had a basket of bullfrogs in his hand. For the tribes on the prairie, hunting small prey is the main source of food. His hunting skills are indeed reliable. The origin of bullfrogs is from southern North America to Central America, and it is also one of the small prey that various tribes often eat.

"Huh? Your Majesty is right, the water is steaming, this bullfrog really didn't...ah! It jumped! It jumped out!..."

Facts have proved that the proverb written by your majesty is not true. When the water temperature reaches a certain level, the bullfrog feels the danger, makes a "quack" sound, and jumps out decisively. It's just that it finally jumped out of the pot, but before it had time to escape, it was stabbed by the prairie warrior Niulang with a short spear, accurately stabbing it through the heart!

"Puff!..."

The warrior Niulang forked the bullfrog and looked up at the black wolf leader, waiting for the next instruction. The black wolf blinked and looked at the empty pottery pot, obviously still a little dazed.

"Your Majesty is wrong! How can bullfrogs be so stupid? Since bullfrogs know how to run...then these Mayan nobles will not be so stupid! They will definitely jump up and down before the water boils!..."

"So, we still have to be ruthless first! Break through the city-states, clean up the villages, convert believers...the first three axes will clean them up! Then there will be nothing else to do! Even if there are a few left, it won't be a big problem..."

"Well...as for cultivating the basic base, your majesty's method is too slow!...Let the Mayan warriors surrender and eat the descendants of the Mayan gods! Let the lower-level believers offend the tradition and sleep with the women of the descendants of the gods! Draw more grassland barbarians here and marry local women! Let them have no way out, and they can only be of one mind with the kingdom!..."

"Haha! I, Black Wolf Toltec, am indeed the smartest legion commander!..."

Black Wolf Toltec was complacent and grinned like a well-fed beast. The warrior Niulang squatted beside him, roasting fresh bullfrogs on the fire for making tea. He took a bite after roasting it, thought for a while, and then tore off the two most plump frog legs and carefully handed them to Heilang.

"Boss, eat!"

"Hmm? This bullfrog tastes really good! Your Majesty likes to cook it slowly, but I still like to roast it over a high fire! After all, Your Majesty often says that the white-skinned evil demon is coming, and that is the real powerful opponent!... I don't have the patience to slowly drill into the forest with the Mayans and fight that kind of boring and rotten battle..."

Heilang ate the bullfrog in big mouthfuls and read the remaining instructions in the letter. These instructions from the king were mainly to give him ideas to prevent him from getting confused. As for how to act specifically, he had enough confidence. No one could fight better than him, and no one knew more than him!

"Lord God's blessing! As I said before, the efficiency of communication determines the boundaries of rule. And for the kingdom, where is the boundary of Maya? It is from the coast to the inland, at most two hundred miles, usually one hundred miles is enough!..."

"The vast forest of Maya, like the last blessing of the Maya gods, is by no means a barrier that is so easy to break through!...Don't go deep into the jungle, even if you are also good at jungle warfare, you still have to be in awe of the jungle! Because, in the depths of the jungle, rule does not rely on force, and communication is difficult and long. Even if you take it down, you often can't stand..."

"Before the disintegration of the faith and order of the Maya clan, before being able to completely influence the hearts of the people at the bottom, the cost of dealing with jungle guerrilla warfare is a price that the kingdom absolutely cannot afford!...Therefore, we always need the banner of the Mayapan royal family to fight against the banner of the inland gods and establish a vassal of ties or puppets. And to truly establish a long-term kingdom rule in the Maya jungle with a radius of thousands of miles, …”

“The Lord God is witnessing! That will require a long assimilation time… or, an extremely dangerous but inevitable opportunity will turn the entire jungle upside down! … And the opportunity I can see is the terrible plague brought by the white-skinned evil demon, the doomsday evil disaster that caused countless tribes to wail and die! …”

“If we can obtain the anti-epidemic medical skills of the West Sea before the evil disaster arrives… or after the evil disaster arrives, the kingdom can follow the divine revelation and find an effective way to save… use the lives that are spread again and again, summarize the response actions, the herbs for curing diseases, and weaken the ‘weak’ human pox that can be planted…”

“Only then! The kingdom’s priests arrive with the miracle of saving lives, and can truly and thoroughly win over the hearts of the tribes, and bring the vast Mayan jungle, and even the vaster north and south continents… into the arms of the Lord God! …”

Seeing this last paragraph, the words that sounded like a prophecy, the black wolf Toltec was stunned in place, his emotions fluctuating violently! He panted with some trembling, imagining the horror of the evil disaster at the end of the world, the kind of evil that could not be resisted by force!

After a long time, he exhaled deeply, looked towards the eastern sky, and asked the gods devoutly.

"Supreme Lord God! How many plague magics have the evil demons from across the East China Sea mastered? Where have they gone, and where are they hiding now?..."
