After this list is inspected and stamped by Akmesser, it will go with the army to the destination, be handed over to the recipient to be stamped, and then return to Akmesser for instructions to let them release the people as promised.
This kind of transaction can only result in the Yongye Army, which has the initiative, to suffer losses and complete its own side of the transaction first.
After success, let the other party fulfill its promise.
After all, if the Kingsley family fails to fulfill their promise, the leader of the Yongye Army still has ways to deal with them.
On the contrary, the Kingsley family can only stare.
With the green light all the way, the troop transport fleet led by the Yongye Army went smoothly and half a day faster than expected. It took only six and a half days to transport the five thousand Kingsley family soldiers to the designated location - Sanchakou.
, the confluence of the Bolton River and the Jacob River under the Carter Army.
The main flow area of the Jacob River is in the Manyu Army Territory. There are only a few turning places passing through the Kalt Army Territory, and there are fewer natural large ports where the Yongye Army's leader ship can berth.
Sanchakou is one of them.
Most of the Kingsley family soldiers stay in sealed cabins, but occasionally they can come out for air in special circumstances.
The mountain of Andis, which had been occupied by the Yongye Army for more than ten years, appeared in front of a large number of outsiders for the first time.
The port is densely populated.
Large and small ships shuttled back and forth on it, and there was a lot of people. These ships loaded with cargo were either heading south to the Swamp of Despair, or westward with them through the Jacob River to the Manyu Army and the plains of Asia Minor.
I saw more than a thousand ships of all kinds along the way,
Terraces cascading.
Along the Jacob River, all the land that can be cultivated has been developed by the Andis people. Not only the huge basin surrounded by mountains, but also the large mountains that are not particularly steep, have also been developed by them, just like a
Layers of huge steps are embedded in the mountains.
But the most eye-catching thing is the giant waterwheels surrounding the terraces.
These giant waterwheels do not exist individually, but exist as a series, in the shape of a pyramid, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain.
The one at the bottom is the biggest, and compared to the Yunxiao riprap trucks in Brothers Port, the models get smaller as you go to the top of the mountain.
Driven by the water of the Jacob's River, a steady stream of river water was transported layer by layer to the top of the mountain by these giant waterwheels.
Perhaps it is now a period of abundant rainfall and there is no need to use so much water. The reservoirs began to overflow and flowed down the canals again into the Jacob River, forming a beautiful scene like a picture scroll.
It is filled not only with the beauty of nature, but also with the beauty of machines made by man, which is breathtaking and unspeakably shocking to the soul.
Towns built of blue bricks and red tiles are inlaid on both sides of the river in an orderly manner. From a distance, they look like blooming flowers, with countless Andis people shuttling among them like industrious ants.
Although I couldn't observe it up close, the aura of stability and prosperity hit my face.
The war in the Swamp of Despair seems to have had no impact on life here.
Faced with such a scene, even the soldiers of the Kingsley family, who were enemies, were yearning for it and could not say any malicious words.
The unique feeling of being in the Evernight Army has become stronger since leaving the Twin Cities and with the comparison.
On both sides of the Jacob River in the area controlled by the Yongye Army, the scene repetition rate is very high. After a long time, it seems a bit thin.
But comparing the situation behind Man Yujun's leadership, they suddenly discovered that that kind of thinness was a kind of happiness.
To be honest, in terms of geographical conditions, Manyu's army is far above the Andis crater.
After four or five years of weather changes, the desolate scene of yellow sand flying all over the sky is no longer the same as before.
Especially after the reflow, both sides of the Jacob River are full of green and moving scenes at the beginning of spring, and there are countless natural ports of all sizes.
However, compared to the Yongye Army Leader, the Manyu Army Leader was far behind, showing a kind of abnormal development.
The large ports with a large number of merchant ships coming in and out, and the red and white red cross flags flying in the sky, as well as the dozens of kilometers surrounding them, are no less prosperous than the Evernight Army.
However, there are only a small number of such areas, accounting for less than one-third. Most of the areas can't even be seen, and they are just deserted.
As for their hometown of Carthusian Army, the place where the Jacob River flows is basically blank, with no trace of a port.
The strong visual impact of prosperity and desolation makes people feel more about the destructive power of war.
After so many years of war, the Manyu Army has been completely destroyed. It cannot be fully restored in one or two generations.
Unknowingly, they had walked the entire journey, and many of the five thousand most elite soldiers of the Kingsley family actually felt lost.
When the Yong Ye Army led the warships to Sanchakou, the 200 tons of grain requested by the Kingsley family had already been handed over.
They did not foolishly transfer the time-consuming and laborious transportation from their own military leaders, but directly took it ready-made from the hands of their ally, the Princess Regent, and transferred it. The transportation distance did not exceed one hundred kilometers. Even if they went upstream, it would be longer than the transportation from Yongzhou.
The night army leads the transportation to save time and effort.
This small account, not to mention the military staff, even the businessmen led by the Yong Ye Army would calculate it.
"General Yada, this is the troop transport roster. The total number of troops transported this time is 5,123, and the actual number is 5,104. Seventeen of them are seriously acclimatized and have been left forever.
The Night Army is recovering. After they recover, we will send them back to Marshal Akmeser as soon as possible. Two of them died accidentally. They both lost their feet and drowned. By the time we found out, it was already too late. We will find the bodies as soon as possible.
And transport it over, and ask the general to inspect it as well."
As the general person in charge of this troop transport, Brann, although he did not show any apology in front of Ada, it was inevitable that he suffered casualties during the transport and left a black stain on his resume.
It’s just that no one can stop them from committing suicide. A group of landlubbers were attracted by the beauty of Yongye Army Leader and wanted to take the opportunity to sneak across. Only two people died. It was considered that Yongye Army Leader had done his best.
"Two were killed in battle?" Ada felt surprised. It was not that there were many dead, but that there were few.
After all, the two sides are still in a semi-confrontation and semi-negotiation. There are too many variables in the nearly week's transfer, and the Kingsley family has been prepared for hundreds of casualties.
The moral quality of the leader of the Yongye Army is much higher than the expectations of the Jinsilu family. He does not bother to play with such small tricks and fulfills his own commitments conscientiously. The completion rate is even better than that of the Kingsley family.
After checking it out personally, Yada felt even more satisfied.
The soldiers of the Kingsley family in the cabin were in good overall condition, except that their spirits were a little sluggish due to being on the ship for a long time. After a good meal and a good sleep, they would be able to go into battle.
"If there are no other problems, please ask the general to send a message to Marshal Akmeser as soon as possible and ask them to start releasing people." Brann urged.
Just because the leaders of the Yongye Army have a conscience, doesn't mean that the Kingsley family's Eastern Army also has a conscience. Especially when food becomes increasingly scarce, who knows if they will do something crazy?
The sooner we take those crocodile civilians out of their hands, the sooner we can feel at ease.
"This is natural." Ada agreed without hesitation.
The clean and tidy style of the leader of the Yongye Army won the favor of this general who came from an orthodox knight family.
He also did not delay, and immediately sent messages to Archduke Buck and the Flying Eagle of Akmesse to carry out the second step of personnel exchange.
Holding Kelman, the other main chief of staff who sent the roster back immediately, appeared in front of Akmeser and said: "Your Majesty Marshal, we have shown our sincerity, shouldn't you fulfill your promise?"
Akmeser gave the order without expression: "Let him go."
Back and forth, after nearly a month of negotiations, the road that blocked the 20,000 expelled Crocodile tribe civilians from returning home was finally cleared.
"What did you say? We are released? Can we go?"
"Can we really leave? Isn't it a conspiracy of the Kingsley family? They will shoot us all before we get far?"
"Probably not? If they really want to kill us, they don't need to go to such trouble at all. Who knows what's going on?"
"Are you leaving or not?"
"Go? Where to go? We have no food in our hands. We can't go more than a few dozen miles without starving to death. I have long heard that the Kingsley family is severely short of food now. They are doing this in order to save military rations.
By driving us out, you are preparing to starve us alive. What is the difference between this and killing us?"
"I just said that the Kingsley family is not so kind. They are trying to kill us in disguise."
"Let's go to a place with water. Commander Yong Ye and our tribe must not have gone far. As long as there is water and boats, we should be able to find them. We will have hope of survival."
"That's right, maybe this is our tribe rescuing us. If we go to the river, as long as we see our boat, there will be hope."
When the civilians of the Crocodile Tribe heard that they were being released unconditionally, they couldn't believe their ears. Their numb eyes widened and they didn't react for a long time.
Just as the leader of the Yongye Army was worried, their situation was quite bad.
Hunger and cold not only destroyed their bodies, but also severely destroyed their wills.
Many people are already numb and have no hope of leaving here alive.
Their ability to survive until now depends solely on survival instinct.
This was the result of Akmesser specially telling the quartermaster to come here if he had something to do, otherwise they would have turned into a pile of dead bodies.
Even so, dozens of corpses are shipped out every day.
In the beginning, some people would dig a hole and bury them hastily. In the end, even this was omitted and they were just piled there. It was not that they had become lazy, but that they did not have the strength to do such physical work.
After hearing the news, only a few people got up to explore the situation. Most of them just lay there, staring at the sky with wide eyes. If their chests were not still heaving, they would have thought they were mummies.
"This bastard Akmeser doesn't regard our people as human beings at all!" Wyande, who was accompanying him to check the situation, was so angry that his hair stood on end at the miserable sight in front of him. "I'm going to kill this bastard."
.”
Imagining it is one thing, seeing it with your own eyes is another.
Anyone who has not personally experienced that kind of famine scene can never imagine how tragic it is.
"Don't make matters worse." Kelman grabbed Wyande, shook his head and said, "Acting on one's emotions will only push them to a dead end. Let the porridge transport team first transport the vitality porridge up, and then instruct them to give each person only one porridge.
Small bowl, no matter how they beg, don’t be merciful and don’t give them more.”
Fortunately, the Yongye Army has a group of qualified military staff who are thorough in their work and have considered all aspects of the matter, including the dire situation at hand.
In fact, when the five thousand elites of the Kingsley family left the port, the Military Staff of the Yongye Army had already made a request to Akmeser to send a medical team to check on the conditions of the Crocodile Clan civilians.
However, Akmesser was very wary of the leaders of the Eternal Night Army, fearing that they would cause new troubles along the way, and refused to let go. It was not until the exact news came that a small gap was opened in the army, allowing the Eternal Night Army to
The leader can send a small team of rescuers up.
Soon, buckets of vitality porridge were pushed over on small carts by soldiers led by the Yongye Army.
This kind of vitality porridge is quite famous in the Yongye Army.
Because it is specially prepared for those who are hungry for a long time.
According to official science popularizers from the Yongye Army, people who have been hungry for a long time have relatively fragile stomachs. If they eat too much food that is not easy to digest at once, it can range from gastrointestinal discomfort to death from gastrointestinal rupture, which is commonly known as
to death.
Every refugee who fled to the territory of Yongye Army must first drink vitality porridge regularly for two or three days to recuperate his body and restore his vitality, and then slowly resume other aspects of his diet.
If a person is very hungry, the bark of the tree will taste sweet.
Not to mention that the taste of Yuanqi porridge is not bad. It is made of rice or millet as the main raw material. It is added with various herbs that can quickly restore people's energy and a small amount of leather muscle. It is simmered over low heat for a day and night, and even the leather muscle is nourished.
When cooked, it melts in your mouth.
The first few bites are a bit bitter, but the more you eat, the sweeter they become.
Those who have just gone through the most difficult moment in their lives will never forget it after one bowl of it.
The Yongye Army received buckets of vitality porridge, and as soon as they opened the lid, the crocodile tribesmen, who seemed to be breathing out but not taking in, all climbed up one by one, with green eyes shining brightly, matching their unkempt faces.
, the appearance of sunken cheeks and raised cheekbones will ooze as much as you want.
However, being hungry and cold for a long time eventually weakened their vitality. When they started to move, their legs were wobbly and they couldn't walk fast at all. If they were not careful, they would fall down.
"Quine up, queue up, all queue up in order, women, children, old and young are given priority. Don't worry, the quantity of porridge is enough, there is porridge for everyone, there is something for everyone."
"Boy, is this your first time performing this kind of disaster relief mission? This is not the time to be merciful. You have to be more ruthless than the enemy, especially those who refuse to obey the arrangements.
You can't condone it." A Yongye veteran who was not very old, but who could tell at a glance that he had experienced hundreds of battles, while preaching to his companions, picked up a civilian from the Crocodile Tribe who was trying to snatch the porridge bucket.
, and threw it out directly.
Even with a little push, he was still knocked to pieces and couldn't get up for a long time.
The Yongye veteran roared with a fierce expression: "Line up in order, otherwise you won't even get a drink of water."
The whole crowd suddenly came to a standstill and began to line up honestly and in accordance with the order.
Veteran Yongye patted the stunned recruit next to him and said meaningfully: "Sometimes, evil people are not necessarily really evil, but forced by the situation. Learn more in the future."
"Queue up in order. Each person can only receive one bowl, and cannot receive it on behalf of others. Those who have received it will gather here for a physical examination. Those who have completed the physical examination can receive a second bowl of porridge, and then proceed in order. Every kilometer walked, you can
Get an extra bowl of porridge."
"Please, give me one more bowl. Just one bowl. It's enough for one bite. I haven't eaten for three days."
"I've made it very clear. Don't talk nonsense and hurry up. There are people waiting behind you and there is still porridge ahead."
"Are you looking for death? The promised bowl is a bowl. No one can break this rule. I will count to three. If you continue to be shameless and refuse to leave, don't blame me for kicking you out of the team. Don't even think about drinking another sip of porridge.
arrive."
Led by experienced Yongye veterans, the entire Crocodile Tribe civilians were like herds of sheep, lining up into twenty long queues, with each dragon head serving as a porridge point.
Then use the vitality porridge as a guide to entice them to move forward step by step.
By the time their stomachs had almost adapted and they felt a little full, they had walked nearly ten kilometers and arrived at the riverside where the Yong Ye Army leader docked the troop transport ship.
