Chapter 909: Volume 29 Remote Sword Qi Chapter 3 Making the Best of a Mistake
The Fox tribe queen’s face no longer bore the cool, wise expression of the past days, leaving only weariness and desolation behind. Although Shami had not yet taken a stance, it was clear that the actions of the Cow Tribe and the Sheep Tribe had exceeded their boundaries. Even if this was not with his tacit approval, for all beastmen, this meant that the strategy originally established by the Beamon Kingdom had already failed.
Shami Taegor also had a look of irritation on his face. Mouni Ox’s quiet indulgence in letting the Cow Tribe and their servant tribe, the Sheep Tribe, sweep through Silesia was clearly a blatant violation of his orders. Although the Wolf Clan and Deer Cavalry had broken the law first, this was also an unforgivable act. Mouni’s behavior undoubtedly declared the suspension of the laws. What should he do now?
"Christina, it’s not that I don’t want to handle this matter, but as you can see, the impact of this matter has spread so wide. Not only the Wolf Clan and Deer Tribe, but also the Cow Tribe and Sheep Tribe are following suit. I suspect the Bear Tribe might also be involved in these matters. Three of the six great royal tribes of our Beamon Kingdom are entangled in this, along with their servant tribes. The scope of involvement is so large, how do you expect me to handle it?"
"Shami, this is our first step into mortal civilization. Laws are the foundation of a kingdom’s establishment. If laws are not enforced, then everything we have done before might be destroyed in an instant. Everyone will question the validity of the promises and decisions we make. Our law enforcement will be greatly discounted, maybe even resisted. Don’t you think this is a very dangerous omen?"
The words of the Fox Tribe queen seemed somewhat impassioned, but couldn’t hide her weakness. Shami Taegor could discern the helplessness in them. He too was distressed. The Fox Clan and the Wolf Clan had always had a close relationship, while the Cow Tribe and the Bear Tribe were his solid allies. It was too difficult to apply punishments to all three.
"Christina, what if we just let things go wrong and let loose? Whatever extent we can fight, that’s the extent we will. Whether they are from Galle or Silesia, their scattered and frail armed forces are no match for us. Moreover, with such a long border line, even if they have many fortress strongholds as support, as long as they lack reinforcements, it’s only a matter of time before we remove these strongholds one by one." Shami tentatively suggested, for Christina was recognized as the wise sage of the Beamon Kingdom, even the High Priest held her in high esteem. Shami was not a narrow-minded and stubborn man; as long as the other party could offer a reasonable suggestion, he was happy to accept it.
"You think so too?" Christina’s body slightly trembled as she eyed the Tiger Clan Leader.
"Christina, I understand your thoughts, but now that things have come to this point, dealing with them would only lead to discord or even a split within our Beamon Kingdom. Is there anything worse than this?" Shami sighed.
"Shami, I didn’t expect you to see it the same way as they do. What did we conquer Jazair for? Was it just for the mortals’ treasures and land? If we all think like this, then why do we need to tread carefully and operate meticulously in Jazair?!"
"I have always said that we, Beamon, need to learn from and absorb the advanced civilization of the mortals. Only then can we break free from the fate of wandering in the Mogan Wilderness generation after generation. The land and cities of the Kingdom of Nicosia are not important to us. What is important is that we need an environment to integrate into—a conducive environment. And now, Jazair has provided us just that perfect environment. Now what we need is time! We need ample time to gradually integrate into advanced civilized society, allowing our citizens to learn and adapt to civilized living, rather than anything else!"
"If we are just greedy for immediate small benefits and overlook our most fundamental needs, once we miss the opportunity, maybe we will incur irreparable losses. Shami, do you understand? Look at how the mortals within our controlled area are looking at us now, how much it has changed compared to a few months ago. We are losing the reputation and trust we have painstakingly built up. And to re-establish that trust, do you know how great a price we need to pay?"
Christina’s voice almost came out hoarse, her fiery red eyes flashing captivatingly.
Annoyed with his situation, Shami was at a loss for words, understanding the rationale but faced with the potential split of Beamon, he had to weigh the pros and cons.
"Christina, I’m afraid we have no choice now. Although I understand that we will lose a lot by doing so, at the moment I cannot consider the overall unity of Beamon. As for the future, perhaps we can only wait and see," Shami said helplessly, spreading his hands. "Please understand my difficulty."
Zellin Stolten’s face was shifting unpredictably, but the dense wrinkles on his forehead betrayed his inner anxiety at the unexpectedly dire situation. The beastmen, as if stimulated, suddenly became active. From the initial Wolf Cavalry and Deer Cavalry to the Minotaur soldiers, and now even the heavily armored Berserker Bear Warriors could be seen appearing in the border wilderness. Everyone understood what this meant—three of the six great royal tribes of the beastmen had already revealed themselves, together with the never publicly seen before Snake Tribe. The only forces of the beastmen that had not yet appeared were those of the Tiger Clan and the Fox Clan.
The emergence of these forces had already stretched Zellin thin. While the armed forces of Galle were quite substantial compared to the other lords of the kingdom, they were still far inferior to the massive and fierce armed groups of the beastmen. Swarms of beastmen were approaching, and two fortresses in the Northwest border region had already fallen. Although both fortresses were not very robust and not very strategically located, the thought of beastman forces mixing in made him the inevitable scapegoat.
The situation was equally bad on the Silesian side, with Nissa even thinking of asking for help from his side, which was unbelievable. Were the Silesians also attacked by the Half-Beastmen? What should he do now? If he delayed further, a collapse seemed imminent, and no one would be in control.
