Mammoth City is located on the east coast of Mammoth State, only a straight line distance of less than 600 kilometers from Silvermoon Bay, while the distance from Silvermoon Bay to Golden Gallon Port is three times that of this distance.
Although the Tasang River has a rapid river and its basin is not as wide as the Yongliu River, it can also benefit two or three states and cover 20 to 30 million people.
With unique geographical advantages and close to a group of cat slaves who are good at doing business, this settlement has not yet developed, which is quite confusing.
The population of Mammoth City is at least tens of millions, but Mammoth City, the only settlement, has only about eight hundred thousand people.
The reason why Jin Jialun Port was poor before was the problem of the empire, but the poverty here seemed to be beyond the empire.
After all, the empire's control over the local area has always been in a vague state. Although it is nominally the territory of the empire and the nobles and people of the empire live, due to the lack of a link between road network and river transportation, Tiandu itself often forgets that it has this land.
In other words, the degree of autonomy here has always been very high, and only in a very rare occasions Wu Tuo will remember to take charge of this place.
Regarding this phenomenon, Ms. Han Mingyue, a social science researcher of the Alliance Scientific Research Team, conducted a survey and concluded that serfdom led to a part of the population being kept in captivity in the aristocratic manors, hindering the urbanization process of Mammoth City.
Another reason is that the infrastructure access level of Mammoth State is too poor, and the crops produced cannot be transported out, and the goods outside cannot be transported in. Self-cultivated farmers only need to produce the grain they consume. There is no need to communicate with each other, and naturally they do not need to gather in cities.
The second problem cannot be solved in one or two days, but the first problem was that Mr. Lasi quickly cut off the mess.
The nobles' manors were distributed along the Tasang River, and even the river embankment used for flood prevention and irrigation were funded by the nobles.
If the river bank exploded, wouldn’t the problem be solved?
Now the land in the hands of the nobles and the local troops they raised are all soaked in the flood flood.
This serf didn't want to escape from the manor and had to rush into the famine team...
……
Outside Mammoth City.
The sudden flood that flooded out of the river not only destroyed the fence walls outside the city, but also wiped out the village not far from the fence wall.
As the weather improved in the past two days, the flood finally receded. The villagers who had been hiding in the mountains and forests finally returned to their homes with big bags.
When they saw the situation at home, both of them fell into silence, looking straight at the collapsed wooden houses and fences and the missing animals, all of them lost their minds for a moment and didn't know what to do.
Gradually, people seemed to finally recognize the reality.
Some people began to move and walked numbly to their collapsed house, trying to pack up some useful things, things that had not been picked up by the person who came first, at least they took their families to pass by today.
Some people wander around, searching in silence among the ruins, or asking if they have seen their families when they meet.
However, everyone knows that it is just in vain.
mother!father!Where are you?
Next to a collapsed wooden house, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child stood alone, looking blankly in one direction, and shouting from time to time.
His voice was weak and his voice was almost hoarse, but no one paid attention to him until a group of people with white bandages on their arms came over.
With an LD-47 rifle on his back and the shoulder straps were tightly welded to his shoulders. Ackerman stopped beside the child and looked him up and down.
This child looks a bit like when he was a month ago, with no father or mother, and a cowardly look on his face...it should be the person Lasi is looking for.
He asked without nonsense.
Your name?
The boy stared blankly at the fierce guy in front of him, then looked at the people with guns, and subconsciously moved his lips.
Udi.
Ackerman continued.
What are you doing?
I'm looking for my mother... She seems to have been washed away.
Udi whispered, looking at the people with anticipation, hoping that they could take him to find his family.
However, to his disappointment, and even despair, the child who was about the same age as him did not do so.
She is gone.Ackerman took a captured Ripper rifle and stuffed it directly into the child's hand. He looked at him and asked, "Can you use it?"
The boy looked at the gun in his hand blankly, then looked at him again, looking at him with a look of at a loss.
Ackerman patted him on the shoulder.
It doesn't matter if you can't use it, I will teach you, now you are my soldier.
But... I have to wait for my mother to come back.Udi took a step back in fear, but his shoulder was pulled.
I said, she is gone, and your father, your brothers and sisters.If they were still alive, would they leave you here and ignore it?
Looking at the silent child, Ackerman held his shoulder tightly, then let go of the hand holding his shoulder.
People will go through this day, and I will go through what you have experienced, until a man grabbed my collar and told me that as long as the empire still ruled here, the things I have experienced will happen again and again, and everyone around me will go through again and again, unless we send those nobles to the gallows and kill all those who enslave us.
...is an empire.The boy recited silently, his breathing gradually became rapid, his eyes were red, and his hands tightly grasped the Ripper rifle.
Looking at the young man who had held back his tears, Ackerman patted the back of his head with admiration and pulled him to his side.
Yes, follow me.
……
The villagers outside Mammoth City did not know what was going on, and the survivors inside Mammoth City also did not know what was going on.
Most people just yawned and heard someone shouting that the water is coming!Then the flood flooded.
The first thing to be washed down was the fence wall outside the settlement.
That thing is just used to block wild boars, wolves and crocodiles, and it is of no use in front of the roar of Tasang River.
Then the unlucky ones were the messy shacks in the city and the brick houses directly built on the mud.
The former was washed away when the first flood came, while the latter was soaked by the river water that flooded the streets.
In addition to the nobles with good economic strength, only the church of Silver Moon Church and some merchants in Silver Moon Bay survived.
Due to the habits developed in Luoxia Province, they are accustomed to burying foundations under buildings so that they can sleep peacefully.
However, seeing that the whole city was flooded, the merchants in Silver Moon Bay did not dare to stay here for a long time. They packed up their fine lines and ran away on the boat. Only the missionaries who were not afraid of death remained stubbornly in the church and did not leave.
The first thing Lasi did after entering the city was to send a church connected to the fishing boat dock to protect the clergy there.
It’s not that he believes in anything. The moon god of the moon tribe and the silver moon goddess of the Silver Moon Church are from the same family. This kind of nonsense is purely because the development of the Mammoth State requires those rich charlatans.
Whether he believes that thing or not, at least he has to respect the other person's faith.
As for himself, he led his men to occupy the lord's mansion in Mammoth City and used it as the headquarters of the Resistance Army. While arranging the subordinates of the Resistance Army to take people to rescue the disaster, he also directed his confidants to invite the gentry and nobles in the city over.
Sitting on the lord's chair, Rasey looked down at the group of dignitaries with his head hanging and trembling, with his military boots tilted to his knees.
No matter what titles you have on your head, from today on who dares to put any noble master's poem in front of me, I even chopped his head with the title!
Everyone was silent, just feeling that they were standing at the entrance of hell, with double-headed dogs on both sides watching, not daring to say a word, and their knees were weak but they did not dare to kneel down.
Seeing that no one objected, Lasi cleared his throat and continued.
I have to do three things when I come here, but you only need to know one.
From now on, slaves in Mammoth State are forbidden. Whoever dares to keep a slave, I will let him move his head a little bit!
The sound was neither light nor heavy, but it echoed in the ears of all the nobles present like thunder.
Looking at the silent city lord's mansion, Lasi saw no one responding, narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly raised his voice and scolded him.
Did you hear it?say!
Shocked by the sound, the nobles could no longer hold back the fear in their hearts and thumped on the ground.
Yes, yes!grown ups!
Me, I will go back and release the slaves in the family!
We never dare to do it again!
We... don't want to make things difficult for the Yue tribe's people... they are all His Majesty... Bah!It was all the orders brought by the witch, and we had no choice but to...
After all, the Yue clan is a nobleman from the previous dynasty. Although not everyone is a noble, the overall living standard is still much higher than that of snakes, rats, insects, and birds, and the proportion of education is not low. Therefore, there are many handsome men and beautiful women who are well-educated.
Because of His Majesty's order, all the Yue tribe members in the entire empire were demoted to slaves, and they did take advantage of the situation to rob and collect some beautiful canaries and keep them in their own houses as playthings.
Even if you want to wash these things, you can't wash them off. Just find someone in the city and ask them out.
Lasi looked down at them and said with a sneer.
What I said is not the Yue tribe, and no slaves from other tribes are allowed.Starting today, Mammoth State will talk about equality!
Speaking of this, he didn't care how confused the kneeling nobles were on their faces, but just slowly replied in the back.
In addition, I said I would not be allowed to kneel down.
After saying that, he waved his hand.
Drag it out, and one person will take ten whips before leaving.
yes!
The guards standing beside him were ordered, and their eyes were flashing with fierce lights. They strided forward in their meteors, and dragged the nobles who were slumped on the ground to the yard like catching a chicken.
They had long wanted to do it.
If it weren't for discipline, how could they allow these empire lackeys to stand and walk into this mansion?
One and two took the whip and used all their strength.
The screams of the nobles and the sound of whipping whips were rising one after another in the empty yard, and the ground was covered with blood.
Looking at the whipped nobles, although the elders of the resistance army felt inappropriate, they finally said nothing due to Lasi's majesty.
Although Narasi said that equality should be discussed, this forced equality is somewhat different from the equality they imagined.
They always feel that they can change a better way, just like what the Alliance did at Golden Gallon Port, to promote the transformation of Mammoth City in a more gentle way.
But now nothing is useless to think about.
The number of people from the Resistance Army was no longer the two thousand earlier, but was about to go for tens of thousands.
The guy's prestige in the army grew higher and higher, and almost all young men regarded him as a spiritual leader and role model.
Even if they wanted to replace him, there would be no chance...
……
Wow
Governor Bamut was awakened by a basin of cold water.
When he raised his wet head, he found that General Darcinna and other officers had disappeared, replaced by a bandit-like officer and several young men with wolf-like eyes.
The sight that seemed to be able to kill made cold sweat seep out of his forehead in an instant, and the person was also excited.
Ling woke up.
Memories like a lake gradually poured into his mind. He vaguely remembered that when the flood came, he hugged a crooked tree tightly, kicked the guard holding his thighs hard, wrapped his sleeves on the branch, and then soaked in the muddy river water, and fainted soon.
Later, a raft leaned over, and several guys with white bandages tied to their arms caught his arm, pulling him up.
Then he lost consciousness.
As for the current situation, there is no need to ask more. Judging from the environment here, it is obviously a cell in Mammoth City.
It was obvious that he was captured.
Cough, I will pay the ransom... Before I could reflect on how I lost, Bamut coughed and said quickly, according to the sacred contract, you need to ensure that my three meals a day and personal safety are not harmed. Of course, I will cooperate with you as much as possible...
The teenagers smiled when they heard this, and they looked amused that they obviously didn't take his words seriously.
A hint of anger flashed in Bamut's eyes, and his clenched fists did not dare to attack. He just stared at the officer with a harsh and cowardly look, trying to scare him away with the majesty of the nobles, but unexpectedly he was slapped in the face.
The slap stunned him and his eyes widened.
you!You dare to hit me
explain!The officer suddenly roared violently and interrupted his half-speak.
Shocked by the sound, Bamut's tone softened unconsciously, and he suddenly lost his noble airs, and he shrank like a mouse.
Say, what to say?
However, the officer didn't ask, just stared at him for a while, then smiled coldly and said slowly.
I’m so stubborn, so I’ll beat me!
Bamut: ???
Before he could come back to his senses, Bamut heard a whoosh-breaking sound, and whipped him in the face with a whip.
The whip was probably soaked in salt water, which made him scream in pain. After he woke up for a while, he almost passed out of breath after he felt so painful.
He wanted to protect his head with his arms, but found that his hands were tied to the back of the chair, and he was twitched for a long time and could not move at all.
He has been a master all his life and has only whipped people with a whip. When has he been beaten by a whip? The rush and he was so painful that his tears flowed out with the yellow ones. He kept begging for mercy, looking so cowardly.
However, the soldiers didn't care about his title at all, just greeted him with the things in their hands.
I...I said...
Hearing the faint voice, the officer raised his hand and the young man holding the whip stopped his movements, staring at Bamut standing aside with a vicious look.
The dying Governor Bamut lowered his head, gasped for a long time, and squeezed out a sentence from his mouth weakly.
Wait for a moment, do you... know who I am...
Everyone looked at each other when they heard this, and their faces showed ridiculous expressions.
When is this?
This guy is still dreaming.
The officer was also amused by this stupid sentence, walked to him, pinched his chin and raised it, and smiled kindly at him.
However, in Bamut's eyes, the smile was not kind at all, and even like an evil ghost, which scared him so much that he swallowed the words on his lips and no longer dared to make a sound.
Who are you?Haha, don’t say that you are just a duke. Even if Wu Tuo comes here, I can make him like a dog, making him unable to live or die.
Listening to this disrespectful statement, Bamut widened his eyes, bloodshot in the whites of his eyes, but there was no point of anger, and only deep fear was left.
At this moment, he finally truly realized the situation in front of him and understood his situation.
These Yue tribe members did not intend to ask for any ransom, let alone care.They just want to get back the suffering they have suffered from him, the nobleman of the empire.
He only regrets why he didn't take any ruthless actions before.
So they allowed these Yue tribe members to escape to the edge of the Tasang River and blew up the embankment there.
This not only made him suffer, but also the affected manors along the river.
Mammoth State is already poor, and now it is so poor that it doesn’t even have food...
The officer didn't talk nonsense to him, and said as he woke up.
I ask you, you just need to say yes.
Yes... He dared not disobey at all, Bamut said dyingly.
The officer continued.
Did you explode the embankment of the Tasang River?
Yes, just as the word was about to be released, Bamut suddenly felt cold sweat and came back to his senses and said quickly.
No, not Ah... Sir, how could it be me
The officer raised his hand and interrupted him, just looking at him coldly.
What did I just say?
That look made Bamut feel like he fell into an ice cave, and he forgot to breathe for a moment.
It seems that you still don’t have a memory, so I’ll ask you later.
The officer laughed, got up from the chair, waved his hand at the young soldiers next to him who looked very frankly, and threw down a sentence cleanly.
Don't kill it.
The soldiers' eyes were flashing fiercely and they answered vigorously.
yes!
……
The door of the prison cell was closed heavily, but the thick door panel could not contain the miserable wail.
The officer didn't listen, and walked outside expressionlessly, looking at Lasi, who was standing at the door of the prison, saluted.
Looking at the confidant coming towards him, Lasi replied with a military salute and asked casually.
How is the situation?
This man's name is Shawa, and he appointed the captain of the stormtrooper.
The so-called stormtrooper is another unit that directly serves him in addition to the personal guards.
And it is a combat force, mainly performing some special combat missions.
For example, infiltration, sabotage, assassination of enemy officials, and purging enemies in the team, etc.
Most of the members of this unit are young men over 15 years old and under 19 years old, especially those from the Yue tribe.
Most of them were slaves, without fathers or mothers, and were absolutely loyal to Lasi himself.
Lasi did not treat them unfairly. They were not only equipped with LD-47 assault rifles produced from the alliance, but also equipped with a small number of bulletproof breastplate and even exoskeletons, and were trained by him as a grassroots officer in the reserve.
The reason for establishing such a force is that on the one hand, the Yue tribe Resistance Army does have this need, and on the other hand, it imitates the alliance managers.
Most people in Golden Gallon Port are learning the Alliance, whether conscious or unconscious, including himself.
When he was still the head of the militia regiment, he heard that the administrator of the alliance had a guard regiment.Since then, he has been thinking about setting up such a force.
Now that he has resigned and joined the guerrillas, he has the opportunity to show his strength, and finally has the opportunity to put all his thoughts into action.
A ghost-like force can form a powerful deterrent to both the enemy and the internal opposition.
Although the stormtrooper has only one battalion, its firepower configuration is not inferior to that of the Empire's Thousand-Man team. It was their work to blow up the embankment of the Tasang River before.
However, of course, they cannot drink this kind of dirty water by themselves.
From the beginning, he had decided to pinch the noses of the imperial nobles and pour the bucket of dirty water into their stomachs.
...No trick yet, but it should be soon.When Shawa heard the boss's inquiry, he grinned with a disdainful expression on his face. The nobles of the empire were all soft-legged shrimps, and the bigger the nobles, the more they were. I just touched his face and he peeded.
It's really cowardly.
He was once hung at the door of Rowell Camp for three days and three nights, and was left with only breath and without begging for mercy.
He followed Lassi to capture Rowell Camp, and he personally hanged the warden on the tower road, avenging the guy to destroy his family.
He still remembers that Lasi pointed to the warden hanging from the tower and said that one day he would hang all the nobles of the empire.
Since then, Shawa has decided to follow the adult in front of him.
Whether it is the Japanese nobles or the Mammoth nobles, they are all nobles of the empire.
Their persecution of the Moon Clan is the same, and there are many slaves of the Moon Clan in their manor.
In their eyes, the Moon tribe is like a livestock in a sheep pen, so naturally he and these nobles are not polite.
What's more, a few beats were so kind to the nobles of the Empire than the bitter he suffered at Camp Rowell.
Lasi nodded expressionlessly and asked.
Did Dasina find it?
That guy is the commander-in-chief of the Mammoth State Local Army.
Originally, they planned to put their hats on the guy's head, but they didn't expect that he was walking away very quickly. I don't know if it was washed away by the flood or ran away, but in short, they didn't catch it.
It was a bit far-fetched to let Bamut take the blame. After all, that guy himself was a great nobleman and there was a lot of land by the Tasang River.
In contrast, it would be much more reasonable for Dasina to do this.
An incompetent general misjudged the turbulence of the Tasang River and blew up the river bank to drown the Yue people who were forced to the riverside. As a result, Chaoming was accidentally killed by Chaoming.
This story is at least logically smooth.
Shawa shook his head.
Not yet, but that guy shouldn't run far, his organization has been broken up.
Although it was a problem not to find it, Lasi didn't care too much, but just gave a concise instruction.
Keep looking.
He paused, and he continued.
In addition, I will send a letter to the Assassin Gang and the Federation, first talking about the establishment of the new authorities in Mammoth State and notifying them of our victory.Then mention the disaster and lower their attitude to ask them if they have any surplus food.If you can help us, the residents of Mammoth State are very grateful.
Those people will definitely help.
He can be sure.
yes!Shawa's expression turned solemn, stood at attention and saluted, then turned around and left.
Watching his confidant leave, Lasi walked in the other direction and walked out of the prison in Mammoth City with the guards beside him.
Bamut is just an explanation to the local survivors. You can give it to them anytime, and there is no rush to do so at this moment.
The most urgent task now is to form a new authority.
Otherwise, as the officers of the Tiger Army mocked openly and secretly, the bandits will always be bandits and will never become a climate.
This flood, which was beyond everyone's expectations, provided him with an excellent opportunity.
When he entered the city with the name of disaster relief, he almost effortlessly entered Mammoth City.
From local gentry and gangsters to wealthy businessmen, and even the whipped nobles, none of them did not cooperate with him, responded to the call of the resistance army, dismissed the slaves in their families, and firmly supported all the decisions of the new authorities.
On the one hand, because they were so severely affected, they really couldn't afford those slaves.
Another reason is that they all knew that a large team of refugees, like locusts, was rushing towards them.
Among them are serfs who escaped from the noble farms, and free people who lost their homes.
No matter what these guys were before, the hungry people were the same, and these people were far more terrifying than a group of resistance troops who looked like bandits.
The little servants in their family can't stop these people. If there was no strong army to protect Mammoth City, they would be eaten by the refugees in minutes and even their bones would not be left.
Bamut and his local army were finished, and they had no choice but to offer loyalty to their new master, and they had to hold the new master's thighs tightly.
Lasi was sure that even if he snatched the entire city, no one would dare to say anything.
However, of course he wouldn't do such a thankless stupid thing.
Although Mammoth City has the word "city", it is as poor as a big countryside. Even the family of a great nobleman does not have much wealth and is incomparable to the Golden Gallen Port where there is at least a Clarba Market.
Even if he robs, he couldn't grab much of the things, which instead affected the Federation's evaluation of him. What's more, now this is his territory, so how can he rob himself?
He will do three things here next.
The first one is abolition!
Only by abolishing slavery can compulsory education be promoted and the productivity of Mammoth State can be liberated!
Another one is to take advantage of Bamut's defeat and take advantage of the unprecedented decline of the local noble forces supporting the empire, and snatch the land they saved in their hands!
Thanks to that flood, it wouldn't take too much effort to do both.
The nobles' manors were basically surrounded by the river, and the most fertile land had long been enclosed by them.
These manors are now the worst hits. The serfs who cannot escape are basically drowned in it, and the prices of those lands are depreciated to be worthless. The new authorities only put a little pressure on them and can easily receive the land in their hands without even having to shed too much blood.
Part of this land can be used to build some large farms run by the authorities themselves, and the remaining part can be distributed to farmers and soldiers.
As for the last thing, it was the most important of the three things he wanted to do.
Mammoth State is an agricultural province, and bullets and rifles cannot be planted from the ground. To get rid of poverty, industry must be developed, and to develop industry must first have foreign exchange.
He has read every Survivor Daily carefully. Although he does not have a systematic understanding of how to develop industry, he at least has a vague concept.
The industrial takeoff of Jinjialun Port is largely due to the fact that it has undertaken the backward production capacity eliminated by the alliance, and leveraging its own population and raw material cost advantages to make these backward production capacity rejuvenate a second spring on the land of the Bharat Province, and later caught up with the tide of the era when the cling community established a new order on the wasteland.
Although Mammoth State started a little later, it was not completely without a chance.
As the civil war in the southern waters ended, the northern islands were in ruins, and the huge infrastructure market and the huge labor gap formed a sharp contrast.
It is said that the local engineering unit still gave silver coins!
There are 800,000 people in Mammoth City and tens of millions in Mammoth City. What he lacks the most at the moment is people, especially the poor who cannot survive.
Although the slave trade was banned, a gang member who was not allowed to do so had given him a good example with practical actions.
There are many ways to make money by relying on people.
In addition to labor agency, there is also the method of labor dispatch...
Although the Tasang River has a rapid river and its basin is not as wide as the Yongliu River, it can also benefit two or three states and cover 20 to 30 million people.
With unique geographical advantages and close to a group of cat slaves who are good at doing business, this settlement has not yet developed, which is quite confusing.
The population of Mammoth City is at least tens of millions, but Mammoth City, the only settlement, has only about eight hundred thousand people.
The reason why Jin Jialun Port was poor before was the problem of the empire, but the poverty here seemed to be beyond the empire.
After all, the empire's control over the local area has always been in a vague state. Although it is nominally the territory of the empire and the nobles and people of the empire live, due to the lack of a link between road network and river transportation, Tiandu itself often forgets that it has this land.
In other words, the degree of autonomy here has always been very high, and only in a very rare occasions Wu Tuo will remember to take charge of this place.
Regarding this phenomenon, Ms. Han Mingyue, a social science researcher of the Alliance Scientific Research Team, conducted a survey and concluded that serfdom led to a part of the population being kept in captivity in the aristocratic manors, hindering the urbanization process of Mammoth City.
Another reason is that the infrastructure access level of Mammoth State is too poor, and the crops produced cannot be transported out, and the goods outside cannot be transported in. Self-cultivated farmers only need to produce the grain they consume. There is no need to communicate with each other, and naturally they do not need to gather in cities.
The second problem cannot be solved in one or two days, but the first problem was that Mr. Lasi quickly cut off the mess.
The nobles' manors were distributed along the Tasang River, and even the river embankment used for flood prevention and irrigation were funded by the nobles.
If the river bank exploded, wouldn’t the problem be solved?
Now the land in the hands of the nobles and the local troops they raised are all soaked in the flood flood.
This serf didn't want to escape from the manor and had to rush into the famine team...
……
Outside Mammoth City.
The sudden flood that flooded out of the river not only destroyed the fence walls outside the city, but also wiped out the village not far from the fence wall.
As the weather improved in the past two days, the flood finally receded. The villagers who had been hiding in the mountains and forests finally returned to their homes with big bags.

Udi.
Ackerman continued.
What are you doing?
I'm looking for my mother... She seems to have been washed away.
Udi whispered, looking at the people with anticipation, hoping that they could take him to find his family.
However, to his disappointment, and even despair, the child who was about the same age as him did not do so.
She is gone.Ackerman took a captured Ripper rifle and stuffed it directly into the child's hand. He looked at him and asked, "Can you use it?"
The boy looked at the gun in his hand blankly, then looked at him again, looking at him with a look of at a loss.
Ackerman patted him on the shoulder.
It doesn't matter if you can't use it, I will teach you, now you are my soldier.
But... I have to wait for my mother to come back.Udi took a step back in fear, but his shoulder was pulled.
I said, she is gone, and your father, your brothers and sisters.If they were still alive, would they leave you here and ignore it?
Looking at the silent child, Ackerman held his shoulder tightly, then let go of the hand holding his shoulder.
People will go through this day, and I will go through what you have experienced, until a man grabbed my collar and told me that as long as the empire still ruled here, the things I have experienced will happen again and again, and everyone around me will go through again and again, unless we send those nobles to the gallows and kill all those who enslave us.
...is an empire.The boy recited silently, his breathing gradually became rapid, his eyes were red, and his hands tightly grasped the Ripper rifle.
Looking at the young man who had held back his tears, Ackerman patted the back of his head with admiration and pulled him to his side.
Yes, follow me.

The first thing to be washed down was the fence wall outside the settlement.

The former was washed away when the first flood came, while the latter was soaked by the river water that flooded the streets.
In addition to the nobles with good economic strength, only the church of Silver Moon Church and some merchants in Silver Moon Bay survived.
Due to the habits developed in Luoxia Province, they are accustomed to burying foundations under buildings so that they can sleep peacefully.
However, seeing that the whole city was flooded, the merchants in Silver Moon Bay did not dare to stay here for a long time. They packed up their fine lines and ran away on the boat. Only the missionaries who were not afraid of death remained stubbornly in the church and did not leave.

While arranging the subordinates of the Resistance Army to take people to rescue the disaster, he also directed his confidants to invite the gentry and nobles in the city over.
Sitting on the lord's chair, Rasey looked down at the group of dignitaries with his head hanging and trembling, with his military boots tilted to his knees.
No matter what titles you have on your head, from today on who dares to put any noble master's poem in front of me, I even chopped his head with the title!
Everyone was silent, just feeling that they were standing at the entrance of hell, with double-headed dogs on both sides watching, not daring to say a word, and their knees were weak but they did not dare to kneel down.
Seeing that no one objected, Lasi cleared his throat and continued.
I have to do three things when I come here, but you only need to know one.
From now on, slaves in Mammoth State are forbidden. Whoever dares to keep a slave, I will let him move his head a little bit!
The sound was neither light nor heavy, but it echoed in the ears of all the nobles present like thunder.
Looking at the silent city lord's mansion, Lasi saw no one responding, narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly raised his voice and scolded him.
Did you hear it?say!
Shocked by the sound, the nobles could no longer hold back the fear in their hearts and thumped on the ground.
Yes, yes!grown ups!
Me, I will go back and release the slaves in the family!
We never dare to do it again!
We... don't want to make things difficult for the Yue tribe's people... they are all His Majesty... Bah!It was all the orders brought by the witch, and we had no choice but to...
After all, the Yue clan is a nobleman from the previous dynasty. Although not everyone is a noble, the overall living standard is still much higher than that of snakes, rats, insects, and birds, and the proportion of education is not low. Therefore, there are many handsome men and beautiful women who are well-educated.
Because of His Majesty's order, all the Yue tribe members in the entire empire were demoted to slaves, and they did take advantage of the situation to rob and collect some beautiful canaries and keep them in their own houses as playthings.
Even if you want to wash these things, you can't wash them off. Just find someone in the city and ask them out.
Lasi looked down at them and said with a sneer.
What I said is not the Yue tribe, and no slaves from other tribes are allowed.Starting today, Mammoth State will talk about equality!
Speaking of this, he didn't care how confused the kneeling nobles were on their faces, but just slowly replied in the back.
In addition, I said I would not be allowed to kneel down.
After saying that, he waved his hand.
Drag it out, and one person will take ten whips before leaving.
yes!
The guards standing beside him were ordered, and their eyes were flashing with fierce lights. They strided forward in their meteors, and dragged the nobles who were slumped on the ground to the yard like catching a chicken.
They had long wanted to do it.
If it weren't for discipline, how could they allow these empire lackeys to stand and walk into this mansion?
One and two took the whip and used all their strength.
The screams of the nobles and the sound of whipping whips were rising one after another in the empty yard, and the ground was covered with blood.
Looking at the whipped nobles, although the elders of the resistance army felt inappropriate, they finally said nothing due to Lasi's majesty.
Although Narasi said that equality should be discussed, this forced equality is somewhat different from the equality they imagined.
They always feel that they can change a better way, just like what the Alliance did at Golden Gallon Port, to promote the transformation of Mammoth City in a more gentle way.
But now nothing is useless to think about.
The number of people from the Resistance Army was no longer the two thousand earlier, but was about to go for tens of thousands.
The guy's prestige in the army grew higher and higher, and almost all young men regarded him as a spiritual leader and role model.
Even if they wanted to replace him, there would be no chance...
……
Wow
Governor Bamut was awakened by a basin of cold water.
When he raised his wet head, he found that General Darcinna and other officers had disappeared, replaced by a bandit-like officer and several young men with wolf-like eyes.
The sight that seemed to be able to kill made cold sweat seep out of his forehead in an instant, and the person was also excited.
Ling woke up.
Memories like a lake gradually poured into his mind. He vaguely remembered that when the flood came, he hugged a crooked tree tightly, kicked the guard holding his thighs hard, wrapped his sleeves on the branch, and then soaked in the muddy river water, and fainted soon.
Later, a raft leaned over, and several guys with white bandages tied to their arms caught his arm, pulling him up.
Then he lost consciousness.
As for the current situation, there is no need to ask more. Judging from the environment here, it is obviously a cell in Mammoth City.
It was obvious that he was captured.
Cough, I will pay the ransom... Before I could reflect on how I lost, Bamut coughed and said quickly, according to the sacred contract, you need to ensure that my three meals a day and personal safety are not harmed. Of course, I will cooperate with you as much as possible...
The teenagers smiled when they heard this, and they looked amused that they obviously didn't take his words seriously.
A hint of anger flashed in Bamut's eyes, and his clenched fists did not dare to attack. He just stared at the officer with a harsh and cowardly look, trying to scare him away with the majesty of the nobles, but unexpectedly he was slapped in the face.
The slap stunned him and his eyes widened.
you!You dare to hit me
explain!The officer suddenly roared violently and interrupted his half-speak.
Shocked by the sound, Bamut's tone softened unconsciously, and he suddenly lost his noble airs, and he shrank like a mouse.
Say, what to say?
However, the officer didn't ask, just stared at him for a while, then smiled coldly and said slowly.
I’m so stubborn, so I’ll beat me!
Bamut: ???
Before he could come back to his senses, Bamut heard a whoosh-breaking sound, and whipped him in the face with a whip.
The whip was probably soaked in salt water, which made him scream in pain. After he woke up for a while, he almost passed out of breath after he felt so painful.
He wanted to protect his head with his arms, but found that his hands were tied to the back of the chair, and he was twitched for a long time and could not move at all.
He has been a master all his life and has only whipped people with a whip. When has he been beaten by a whip? The rush and he was so painful that his tears flowed out with the yellow ones. He kept begging for mercy, looking so cowardly.
However, the soldiers didn't care about his title at all, just greeted him with the things in their hands.
I...I said...
Hearing the faint voice, the officer raised his hand and the young man holding the whip stopped his movements, staring at Bamut standing aside with a vicious look.
The dying Governor Bamut lowered his head, gasped for a long time, and squeezed out a sentence from his mouth weakly.
Wait for a moment, do you... know who I am...
Everyone looked at each other when they heard this, and their faces showed ridiculous expressions.
When is this?
This guy is still dreaming.
The officer was also amused by this stupid sentence, walked to him, pinched his chin and raised it, and smiled kindly at him.
However, in Bamut's eyes, the smile was not kind at all, and even like an evil ghost, which scared him so much that he swallowed the words on his lips and no longer dared to make a sound.
Who are you?Haha, don’t say that you are just a duke. Even if Wu Tuo comes here, I can make him like a dog, making him unable to live or die.
Listening to this disrespectful statement, Bamut widened his eyes, bloodshot in the whites of his eyes, but there was no point of anger, and only deep fear was left.
At this moment, he finally truly realized the situation in front of him and understood his situation.
These Yue tribe members did not intend to ask for any ransom, let alone care.They just want to get back the suffering they have suffered from him, the nobleman of the empire.
He only regrets why he didn't take any ruthless actions before.
So they allowed these Yue tribe members to escape to the edge of the Tasang River and blew up the embankment there.
This not only made him suffer, but also the affected manors along the river.
Mammoth State is already poor, and now it is so poor that it doesn’t even have food...
The officer didn't talk nonsense to him, and said as he woke up.
I ask you, you just need to say yes.
Yes... He dared not disobey at all, Bamut said dyingly.
The officer continued.
Did you explode the embankment of the Tasang River?
Yes, just as the word was about to be released, Bamut suddenly felt cold sweat and came back to his senses and said quickly.
No, not Ah... Sir, how could it be me
The officer raised his hand and interrupted him, just looking at him coldly.
What did I just say?
That look made Bamut feel like he fell into an ice cave, and he forgot to breathe for a moment.
It seems that you still don’t have a memory, so I’ll ask you later.
The officer laughed, got up from the chair, waved his hand at the young soldiers next to him who looked very frankly, and threw down a sentence cleanly.
Don't kill it.
The soldiers' eyes were flashing fiercely and they answered vigorously.
yes!
……
The door of the prison cell was closed heavily, but the thick door panel could not contain the miserable wail.
The officer didn't listen, and walked outside expressionlessly, looking at Lasi, who was standing at the door of the prison, saluted.
Looking at the confidant coming towards him, Lasi replied with a military salute and asked casually.
How is the situation?
This man's name is Shawa, and he appointed the captain of the stormtrooper.
The so-called stormtrooper is another unit that directly serves him in addition to the personal guards.
And it is a combat force, mainly performing some special combat missions.
For example, infiltration, sabotage, assassination of enemy officials, and purging enemies in the team, etc.
Most of the members of this unit are young men over 15 years old and under 19 years old, especially those from the Yue tribe.
Most of them were slaves, without fathers or mothers, and were absolutely loyal to Lasi himself.
Lasi did not treat them unfairly. They were not only equipped with LD-47 assault rifles produced from the alliance, but also equipped with a small number of bulletproof breastplate and even exoskeletons, and were trained by him as a grassroots officer in the reserve.
The reason for establishing such a force is that on the one hand, the Yue tribe Resistance Army does have this need, and on the other hand, it imitates the alliance managers.
Most people in Golden Gallon Port are learning the Alliance, whether conscious or unconscious, including himself.
When he was still the head of the militia regiment, he heard that the administrator of the alliance had a guard regiment.Since then, he has been thinking about setting up such a force.
Now that he has resigned and joined the guerrillas, he has the opportunity to show his strength, and finally has the opportunity to put all his thoughts into action.
A ghost-like force can form a powerful deterrent to both the enemy and the internal opposition.
Although the stormtrooper has only one battalion, its firepower configuration is not inferior to that of the Empire's Thousand-Man team. It was their work to blow up the embankment of the Tasang River before.
However, of course, they cannot drink this kind of dirty water by themselves.
From the beginning, he had decided to pinch the noses of the imperial nobles and pour the bucket of dirty water into their stomachs.
...No trick yet, but it should be soon.When Shawa heard the boss's inquiry, he grinned with a disdainful expression on his face. The nobles of the empire were all soft-legged shrimps, and the bigger the nobles, the more they were. I just touched his face and he peeded.
It's really cowardly.
He was once hung at the door of Rowell Camp for three days and three nights, and was left with only breath and without begging for mercy.
He followed Lassi to capture Rowell Camp, and he personally hanged the warden on the tower road, avenging the guy to destroy his family.
He still remembers that Lasi pointed to the warden hanging from the tower and said that one day he would hang all the nobles of the empire.
Since then, Shawa has decided to follow the adult in front of him.
Whether it is the Japanese nobles or the Mammoth nobles, they are all nobles of the empire.
Their persecution of the Moon Clan is the same, and there are many slaves of the Moon Clan in their manor.
In their eyes, the Moon tribe is like a livestock in a sheep pen, so naturally he and these nobles are not polite.
What's more, a few beats were so kind to the nobles of the Empire than the bitter he suffered at Camp Rowell.
Lasi nodded expressionlessly and asked.
Did Dasina find it?
That guy is the commander-in-chief of the Mammoth State Local Army.
Originally, they planned to put their hats on the guy's head, but they didn't expect that he was walking away very quickly. I don't know if it was washed away by the flood or ran away, but in short, they didn't catch it.
It was a bit far-fetched to let Bamut take the blame. After all, that guy himself was a great nobleman and there was a lot of land by the Tasang River.
In contrast, it would be much more reasonable for Dasina to do this.
An incompetent general misjudged the turbulence of the Tasang River and blew up the river bank to drown the Yue people who were forced to the riverside. As a result, Chaoming was accidentally killed by Chaoming.
This story is at least logically smooth.
Shawa shook his head.
Not yet, but that guy shouldn't run far, his organization has been broken up.
Although it was a problem not to find it, Lasi didn't care too much, but just gave a concise instruction.
Keep looking.
He paused, and he continued.
In addition, I will send a letter to the Assassin Gang and the Federation, first talking about the establishment of the new authorities in Mammoth State and notifying them of our victory.Then mention the disaster and lower their attitude to ask them if they have any surplus food.If you can help us, the residents of Mammoth State are very grateful.
Those people will definitely help.
He can be sure.
yes!Shawa's expression turned solemn, stood at attention and saluted, then turned around and left.
Watching his confidant leave, Lasi walked in the other direction and walked out of the prison in Mammoth City with the guards beside him.
Bamut is just an explanation to the local survivors. You can give it to them anytime, and there is no rush to do so at this moment.
The most urgent task now is to form a new authority.
Otherwise, as the officers of the Tiger Army mocked openly and secretly, the bandits will always be bandits and will never become a climate.
This flood, which was beyond everyone's expectations, provided him with an excellent opportunity.
When he entered the city with the name of disaster relief, he almost effortlessly entered Mammoth City.
From local gentry and gangsters to wealthy businessmen, and even the whipped nobles, none of them did not cooperate with him, responded to the call of the resistance army, dismissed the slaves in their families, and firmly supported all the decisions of the new authorities.
On the one hand, because they were so severely affected, they really couldn't afford those slaves.
Another reason is that they all knew that a large team of refugees, like locusts, was rushing towards them.
Among them are serfs who escaped from the noble farms, and free people who lost their homes.
No matter what these guys were before, the hungry people were the same, and these people were far more terrifying than a group of resistance troops who looked like bandits.
The little servants in their family can't stop these people. If there was no strong army to protect Mammoth City, they would be eaten by the refugees in minutes and even their bones would not be left.
Bamut and his local army were finished, and they had no choice but to offer loyalty to their new master, and they had to hold the new master's thighs tightly.
Lasi was sure that even if he snatched the entire city, no one would dare to say anything.
However, of course he wouldn't do such a thankless stupid thing.
Although Mammoth City has the word "city", it is as poor as a big countryside. Even the family of a great nobleman does not have much wealth and is incomparable to the Golden Gallen Port where there is at least a Clarba Market.
Even if he robs, he couldn't grab much of the things, which instead affected the Federation's evaluation of him. What's more, now this is his territory, so how can he rob himself?
He will do three things here next.
The first one is abolition!
Only by abolishing slavery can compulsory education be promoted and the productivity of Mammoth State can be liberated!
Another one is to take advantage of Bamut's defeat and take advantage of the unprecedented decline of the local noble forces supporting the empire, and snatch the land they saved in their hands!
Thanks to that flood, it wouldn't take too much effort to do both.
The nobles' manors were basically surrounded by the river, and the most fertile land had long been enclosed by them.
These manors are now the worst hits. The serfs who cannot escape are basically drowned in it, and the prices of those lands are depreciated to be worthless. The new authorities only put a little pressure on them and can easily receive the land in their hands without even having to shed too much blood.
Part of this land can be used to build some large farms run by the authorities themselves, and the remaining part can be distributed to farmers and soldiers.
As for the last thing, it was the most important of the three things he wanted to do.
Mammoth State is an agricultural province, and bullets and rifles cannot be planted from the ground. To get rid of poverty, industry must be developed, and to develop industry must first have foreign exchange.
He has read every Survivor Daily carefully. Although he does not have a systematic understanding of how to develop industry, he at least has a vague concept.
The industrial takeoff of Jinjialun Port is largely due to the fact that it has undertaken the backward production capacity eliminated by the alliance, and leveraging its own population and raw material cost advantages to make these backward production capacity rejuvenate a second spring on the land of the Bharat Province, and later caught up with the tide of the era when the cling community established a new order on the wasteland.
Although Mammoth State started a little later, it was not completely without a chance.
As the civil war in the southern waters ended, the northern islands were in ruins, and the huge infrastructure market and the huge labor gap formed a sharp contrast.
It is said that the local engineering unit still gave silver coins!
There are 800,000 people in Mammoth City and tens of millions in Mammoth City. What he lacks the most at the moment is people, especially the poor who cannot survive.
Although the slave trade was banned, a gang member who was not allowed to do so had given him a good example with practical actions.
There are many ways to make money by relying on people.
In addition to labor agency, there is also the method of labor dispatch...
