After sending off the chiefs, Suo Da and Er Gou received the order from the telepathic connection, came to Jose's lair, and stood obediently in front of the crouching red dragon.
Even lying on his stomach, Jose was taller than the kobold brothers by a large margin. He looked down, and his golden vertical dragon eyes swept across the two first relatives.
"You two are my most trusted and valued dependents. I have important tasks to entrust to you, so don't be careless."
"Thank you master for your love, Suo Da will do his best."
Ergou then stated that he was willing to do his best to contribute to the master's career.
After listening to the loyal speeches of the two family members, Jose felt no disturbance in his heart.
"Actions speak louder than words."
"Suoda, after the young fighters sent by the tribes arrive, you will train them as fighters. I will use the number of official fighters born as an indicator to evaluate your mission completion."
"Master, please rest assured that the task will be completed!" Suo Da was full of confidence, straightening his chest.
In the past 20 days, he has conducted warrior training for the soldiers of his tribe, and the results have been remarkable. Six of the fifty soldiers have become full-fledged warriors. If he is given another 20 days, he is confident that he will This figure doubled again.
Seeing the enthusiasm of his subordinates, Jose nodded in satisfaction. It was precisely because of seeing Suoda's training results that Jose entrusted him with the task of training soldiers.
Mage, Priest, Warlock, Druid, Warrior, Knight, Rogue, Hunter, and Monk are collectively called the nine basic occupations. Among the nine basic occupations, warriors are the easiest formal occupations to be born.
You don't need a huge reserve of knowledge, you just need courage and food. The former gives you the confidence to fight. As for the latter, you can't do physical training if you don't have enough food.
Of course, soldiers are not so cheap that any farmer can eat enough and get a job after training, and they also need a certain amount of physical talent.
Generally speaking, the stronger the body and the richer the combat experience, the easier it is to develop a sense of aura in bursts of full strength and be promoted to a formal fighter.
Kobolds have struggled to survive in the harsh environment since they were young, and fighting is an essential part of their growth. Rich combat experience, coupled with the large amount of food brought by agricultural development, has created a high birth rate of kobold fighters.
"Okay, Suoda, you go out first."
"yes!"
"By the way," Suoda turned and walked out, stopped suddenly, and turned around: "Master, what is the same treatment as the Blood Tooth Tribe?"
"You'll find out later."
Jose was embarrassed, but he couldn't tell his family that it was just a blank check to motivate the kobold chiefs.
That's right, Jose hasn't made a plan for the hierarchical management of the tribes under his command, he just has such an idea.
In his plan, in the future he will have multi-tribal and multi-ethnic dependents. These dependents will perform their duties according to their racial talents, and their daily necessities will be rationed uniformly, so that everyone can have enough food and clothing.
But in order to avoid big pots of rice and reflect differentiation, he will rationally distribute higher-quality living materials, such as meat, land, wealth, etc., according to the size of the contribution made by the tribe, so as to form an upward incentive.
However, currently Jose only has two dependent races, the Kobold and the Harpy, and the Harpy is small in number and self-sufficient.
As for the kobolds, there is no shortage of food, but meat is also a scarce resource. Excluding the consumption of the two dragons, the rest is not enough to distribute, so they can only write a blank check to the kobold chiefs.
This cowhide has to come true as soon as possible.
Shaking his head, Jose looked at his first dependent.
These days, Ergou has been busy increasing food reserves for the tribe, and developing mushroom and fungus farming.
"Yougou, what achievements have you made these days?"
Talking about the results, Er Gou immediately had a smile on his face: "Returning to the master, the pine nuts picked and dried are piled up in the warehouse, so that we have to dig a new warehouse. These pine nuts alone are enough for the tribe to have a good winter." Yes, and there is still plenty to spare.”
"Konjac has a relatively long growth cycle and has not yet germinated. As for mushrooms and fungus, according to the method you gave, I have just tested the temperature and humidity suitable for their growth, and the growth is gratifying. If this trend continues, mushrooms and fungus will become Our main source of food, supplying all the tribes is no problem."
"Very good. Food is the foundation of a tribe's survival. It must be firmly in your hands. Also, the five major tribes have sworn allegiance. You send people to the territory of the five major tribes to guide them in collecting food."
After pondering for a moment, Jose continued: "Leave them a month's supply of food, and send all the rest back to the warehouse for storage. This matter will be handled by you, but you don't have to go. I have more important things." The task is given to you."
After a pause, Jose decided to test his first dependent.
"Yigou, what do you think is the purpose of me gathering young warriors from various tribes for training?"
Ergou did not hesitate: "In order to produce more professionals and enhance the combat effectiveness of the army."
"No, no, no matter how strong the kobold army is, it's just a matter of two dragon breaths. Increasing combat power is only a small part of my goal." Jose shook his index finger: "I'll give you another chance to answer."
This time, Ergou didn't dare to speak directly, and lowered his head, thinking for a while.
"In order to control the army, master, you want to gather the army and prepare for expansion?"
"Half right, but not quite right."
Er Gou scratched his head in embarrassment: "Master, forgive me for being stupid, what is your purpose?"
"loyalty!"
Jose said in a deep voice: "My servant, strength without loyalty is worthless!"
For a long time, Jose has been thinking about a question, that is, whether history will repeat itself when confronted with a dragon that is stronger than himself-his own army defected and became the opponent's people.
After some deliberation, he decided that such a thing was very likely to happen.
Except for the dependents who signed the contract, everyone else is a living body with independent consciousness without any constraints. The instinct of life to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and the chaotic and evil nature of kobolds will tend them to stand on the side of the strong.
When a problem is discovered, you have to find a way to solve it, so there is the current scene.
Jose stood up and walked back and forth in the cave: "Yougou, your task is to solve the loyalty problem of the recruits for me, in case I encounter dragons who are older than me, do you understand?"
You Gou was stunned, and then looked up at Jose with admiration: "Master, your gaze shines on the earth like a bright moon in the long run."
After a while, he had a bitter expression on his face: "But, master, I don't know the magic of changing minds."
"No, no magic is needed, my servant, sometimes words are more powerful than magic."
There are some high-level life forms in Tydanore, and they are born with the ability to manipulate the will of others. Take the mind flayer as an example.
Even a powerful mind flayer at the legendary level has its own control limit, at most twenty to thirty thousand people can be controlled at the same time, but language has no such limit.
"All you need to do is tell the recruits in training who gave them everything they have, and let the concept of loyalty be firmly ingrained in their hearts."
Thanks for the reward of 2100 coins from Meng and Longsheng and 200 coins from Ye Yayla
