Miracle Throne Chapter 359

Chapter 359: Barbarians' autonomous region

The young miss had guessed the plan without a single mistake.

The unexpected calamity of the barbarians was directed by Chu Tian.  Actually, since they arrived from Central State, Chu Tian had already been secretly monitoring this special power.  It did not mean that Chu Tian was afraid of the barbarians, rather Chu Tian was very interested in them.

The barbarians were different from weak humans.  The barbarians had natural copper skin and iron bones.  Many of these barbarians did not have the custom of practicing cultivation techniques because the barbarians' physiques were incredibly strong.  They were around ten times that of a normal human adult, five times that of a wolf or leopard spirit beast, and even double or three times that of a tiger or bear spirit beast.

The barbarians had terrifying brute strength and even without any cultivation, they were not inferior to elite Southern Summer soldiers.  That was the reason why they could remain in Southern State for so long. The Western Marquis couldn't destroy them and suffered losses at their hand, so he had to compromise for everyone's interests.

In Chu Tian's eyes, the over a million barbarians in Southern State could be a time bomb and also a gold mine!

What did Chu Tian lack the most?  Was it resources? Was it money and fame?  No, it was soldiers! These barbarians were natural soldiers and they only need a bit of training before they became a powerful army!

In the beginning, Chu Tian did not plan on using too cruel of a method and wanted to slowly make them submit.  Who would have thought that in the recent reports, they said that the barbarians were stockpiling food, seemingly preparing to leave Southern State.

How could that be allowed?

Once the barbarians left Southern State and entered the forests to the south, not only would they be hard to use by Chu Tian, they would certainly cause a lot of trouble for Miracle Commerce in the future.

This was a power of one million barbarians!  If they were out in the open and gathered together, Chu Tian could not care about them.  If they were hidden in the old forests and mountains, they would cause Chu Tian ten times more problems than open riots in Southern State.  This was because Chu Tian's path was headed south and if this road was blocked by over a million hooligans, the consequences could be imagined.

This matter could not be allowed to happen!

Therefore, Chu Tian sent Nangong Yun to destroy the food the barbarians worked hard to store under the pretense of looking for hostages, making them lose the ability to run away.  He also had her demonstrate the power of Miracle Commerce without killing too many barbarians, letting the barbarians have a deep fear of Chu Tian and Miracle Commerce.

Because the barbarians did not dare resist Miracle Commerce, adding in the fact their food stores had been destroyed and they were in a situation where they weren't at fault, they could only leave things to chance and surrender to Miracle Commerce, hoping that Miracle Commerce would show mercy by giving them a way out.

Chu Tian said to Dongfang Haoran, "Bring all the barbarians that have surrendered into the valley.  Have a hundred thousand soldiers surround them and don't let them escape."

"Yes!"

Dongfang Haoran immediately rode off.

An entire two hundred thousand young barbarians were brought into the valley.  One hundred thousand Southern Summer cavalry were stationed on the high ground making the barbarians very afraid.  These Southern Summer elite cavalry were very strong and if the barbarians dared to riot, the cavalry would charge down and all the barbarians would be finished!

If these barbarians were afraid, the ones left in the tribe were even more afraid.  

Because the young had all been taken away, leaving the weak old and very young who couldn't resist at all.  Not to mention the fact that their land had been destroyed, so them defending this ruined land was currently sitting filled with uneasiness.

The hot tempered barbarians shouted, "We want to see the Country Guarding Ruler!"

Hong dong!

A Source Energy Cannon was fired!

The violent energy flattened a mountain in front of the barbarians!

The barbarians were stunned seeing this.  Miracle Commerce had an even more powerful weapon!  If this weapon was fired into the crowd, the casualties couldn't be counted in just hundreds!

"All of you shut up for me!"  Dongfang Haoran was covered in bright armour as he rode on a Divine Blue Foal, running around the edge of the valley.  He looked very much like a general as he shouted with a serious face with no expressions at all, "The Country Guarding Ruler is currently investigating the barbarians attacking the merchant caravan which you are all suspected of.  Honestly stay here and when this matter is over, the Country Guarding Ruler will deal with you all!"

"This is injustice!  Injustice!"

"It must have been done by the Black Rhino Tribe!"

"Bulls.h.i.+t!  Our Black Rhino Tribe hasn't done anything in half a month.  It must have been done by the Iron Bull Tribe, I saw them lead a team out just a few days ago!"

"f.u.c.k!  Don't make false accusations, we were just going out hunting!"

The barbarians were all blaming each other.  Their simple brains could never think that this matter was directed by Chu Tian and they were all just victims.  The barbarians did not think Miracle Commerce would do such a boring matter. With Miracle Commerce's strength, it wouldn't be hard to wipe out the barbarians, so why make the extra move?

The barbarians became even more rowdy before finally making their move.  The entire valley became a large fight as the wave of people surged and people's heads were covered in blood, looking very intense.

Hong, hong, hong!

Several mountains were flattened!

Dongfang Haoran raised his speaker to say, "Whoever dares cause trouble will cause their tribe to be killed!"

The barbarians immediately quieted down.

"We all submit!"

"We ask the Country Guarding Ruler for mercy!"

Chu Tian sat on the high ground drinking tea.  He looked over these barbarians with strong body and nodded with satisfaction.  As long as they were trained, they could immediately become great soldiers. The heavens are truly helping me!

"These big fools are truly pitiful."  Meng Yingying looked at the frightened and hungry barbarians shouting in the valley and her heart couldn't help being moved, "Our goals have been accomplished and they have already surrendered, how about we let them go!"

Chu Tian shook his head, "The barbarians are an unreasonable and violent race, if we need to deal with these fellows, we need to teach them a profound lesson.  The critical moment isn't here yet, look at how fierce they are. Although they are saying they have surrendered, if we let them go, I can guarantee at least half of them will escape in a single night."

"What should we do?"

"Let them dry out in the sun for a week, until they're too hungry to move!"

Meng Yingying felt that this was a bit too cruel, "What if they riot from their hunger?"

Chu Tian gave a laugh and said, "The barbarians are afraid of hards.h.i.+ps.  They will display their strength, but they won't rashly make a move. Not to mention that I've never said I would kill them.  As long as they don't have any hope, they will keep waiting."

Meng Yingying sighed.  Silly barbarians, it wasn't that I didn't try helping you, but who told you to catch Chu Tian's eyes?  It would be strange if you didn't encounter bad luck!

He did what he said.

Chu Tian locked up the barbarians for seven days and nights, not giving them food or water, allowing them to survive on gra.s.s and rain.  After seven days, the barbarians were flat from hunger and were all weakly lying on the ground, making them look like refugees.

When the barbarians' body and mind were about to collapse.

Suddenly.

The cavalry began to retreat.

Dongfang Haoran rode a tall horse to announce, "I want to announce good news t everyone.  The robbers that attacked Miracle Commerce had been caught!"

The barbarians were shocked.

They had finally been caught?

"These robbers came from the southern forest and weren't from Southern State.  The hostages had been saved and this matter is not related to you all. The Country Guarding Ruler has given the orders to let you all leave!"

Everyone was filled with happiness.

Everything had finally come to an end.

The cavalry on the four sides began to withdraw.  It seemed like the Southern Summer army were about to leave, leaving behind a group of stunned barbarians.

"Wait a minute!"  The several old tribe chiefs quickly chased after them.

"What is it?"

"General, our tribe's land was destroyed and we have no food."  The several old tribe chiefs said with faces of sorrow, "The clansmen all have no energy and we can't even walk."

Dongfang Haoran's brows knit, "How does the lives of you barbarians matter to the Southern Summer Country?  It has to be known, you have committed many evil deeds on the daily basis. The Country Guarding Ruler not killing you all is already the greatest mercy!"

The barbarians instantly began to plead, "We have already submitted to the Country Guarding Ruler, we ask the Country Guarding Ruler for a way out!"

"I can't make the decision on that!"  Dongfang Hao Ran said, "I'll go back and ask the Country Guarding Ruler!"

"Thank you general, thank you general!"

Dongfang Haoran had not left long before immediately coming back.  The barbarians had not left, most likely because they didn't have the strength.

"The ruler's orders are here!"

Dongfang Haoran raised a scroll high up.

The barbarians all kneeled down to welcome the Country Guarding Ruler's orders.

Dongfang Haoran spoke in a loud voice and read the ruler's orders which simply read: This matter has caused heavy disturbances with the barbarians, but it is not worth sympathizing with you all.  Who asked you barbarians to be normally raiding and doing all kinds of evil things? However, every being in this world deserves to live, so this gracious ruler will give you a way out.

For the Southern State's long term peace and the Southern Summer Country's prosperity, Miracle Commerce has decided to invest in restoring a city abandoned by humans fifty years ago.  With that city as a center, the three hundred mile region around it will become known as the barbarian autonomous region, a place for the barbarians to live in.

In order to guarantee the barbarians will not go back to their old work, Miracle Commerce will make a large investment.  Other than providing relief food the ensure the barbarians do not starve, we will also open up resources in this autonomous region while making large amounts of factories, giving the barbarians work to provide for their family.

Once the ruler's orders were read.

The barbarians were seething with excitement.

The Country Guarding Ruler was specially restoring a city for the barbarians!

What courage, what tolerance.  The barbarians have been clas.h.i.+ng with the humans and it was impossible for them to live together, so the Country Guarding Ruler specially created a region for the barbarians!  At first he would be providing relief food and would be providing work later on, making sure they no longer needed to work as robbers.

The barbarians were all feeling confused.  They didn't know if they could adapt to this lifestyle, but what choice did they have?  They no longer had their land and they couldn't escape, so they could only give this method a try.

The tribe chiefs came together and immediately decided to lead their tribes to see this new region.

When they arrived in the barbarian autonomous region set aside by Chu Tian, each barbarian was shocked by what they saw.  The city was very worn out, but it looked very big. Not only were the walls perfect, the buildings had been repaired and there were even tents set up.

A line of beast carriages entered the city.

Each beast carriage was filled with food and wine!

When these starved barbarians smelled the scent of the meat and wine, the final worries they had all collapsed.  They immediately accepted the Country Guarding Ruler's proposition and swore loyalty to the Country Guarding Ruler as they roared while charging into their new home.

Chu Tian was very generous.

Miracle Commerce had already s.h.i.+pped a large amount of food here, enough that these barbarians would not starve for a while.

The other barbarians who were still uncertain and worried saw that those barbarians who had gone first were already feasting, so how could they still keep sitting there?  The barbarian region was managed by the barbarians. Since they wouldn't be restricted by humans, could eat until their bellies were full, and live a good live, who wasn't willing to go?  In just a few days and nights, this ruined city became lively. The barbarian region continued to grow as all the barbarians migrated over.

This time, unlike the previous forced surrender before, the barbarians were willingly submitting.

When Chu Tian saw the situation was slowly stabilizing, he pa.s.sed a few simple laws in the barbarian region and sent the cavalry to maintain military order, thus completely controlling them.
