All thirty-four mbers of the Thunderous Swamp Assembly had arrived. Yan Xing stood up and requested that all Swamp Tribe Clan Leaders rise. As the sole executive officer, Yan Xing solemnly announced the establishnt of the Thunderous Swamp nation. He then delivered the proclamation of its founding and confird the national system as parliantary. The six permanent mbers were directly appointed by the sole executive officer of Thunderous Swamp. The twenty-four mbers were nominated by the sole executive officer and then elected by all the Clan Leaders of Thunderous Swamp. The function of the Thunderous Swamp Assembly was to assist the sole executive officer in ruling and governing the entire territory of Thunderous Swamp and to dedicate its strength to the rise of the Swamp Tribe.
At this mont, all Swamp Tribe Clan Leaders seed like a herd of sheep being driven along, unknowingly consenting to the establishnt of the Thunderous Swamp nation. Sohow the Assembly had been established. And sohow they had to join in with applause and cheers... It seed like they had already straightened their spines and beco one of the mainstream races recognized by the world. However, thinking about the giant planes flying in the sky, the Swamp Tribe Clan Leaders felt their spines truly straighten. Following Lord Yan Xing... there was a future.
For a race like the Swamp Tribe that hadn’t fully beco civilized, showing one’s fists worked better than talking about ideals. Might makes right; that was the law of the jungle. A campaign to exterminate the Heize Werewolf rebels and a heart-stopping military parade had significantly fostered the Swamp tribes’ loyalty towards the Eternal Domain. Although the Swamp Tribe Clan Leaders were still sowhat unclear about what a parliantary system or a nation entailed, the generosity, benevolence, wealth, and power exhibited by Yan Xing made them all willing to follow his lead. The Thunderous Swamp nation was established amid a fervent atmosphere.
Yan Xing had all the Clan Leaders sit down, and he too sat down. The Thunderous Swamp’s first general assembly of Clan Leaders then moved on to its formal agenda.
The first and most pressing issue was to complete the census of the population within Thunderous Swamp as quickly as possible. To wage war, they first needed to know how many soldiers could be mobilized and the quality of these soldiers. They also needed to determine how many laborers could be mobilized and how much logistical support could be provided. Additionally, every tribe possessed a certain number of recruitnt buildings, and so larger tribes could even recruit high-tier magical beasts. The military strength that could be produced each week also needed to be calculated and accounted for, so the Eternal Domain could then allocate funds as needed for recruitnt.
Yan Xing appointed Li Zhua and Green Tail to be responsible for the census work in Thunderous Swamp. The larger the net cast for the census, the more detailed and comprehensive the records needed to be. At the sa ti, Yan Xing also added this task to Chui Chui’s list of important processes and allocated alchemical robots to assist the census group with data recording.
The Swamp Tribe Clan Leaders did not fully grasp the profound significance of the census. But since they had ford a nation, they naturally needed to know how many people it contained. Moreover, Lord Yan Xing had announced that the Eternal Domain had prepared gifts for each tribe actively participating in the census. This ant they should cooperate even more enthusiastically. The population census agenda item was smoothly approved, and the Clan Leaders all looked forward to the census group visiting their tribes sooner.
Next, Yan Xing introduced the second agenda item: the grand infrastructure project for Thunderous Swamp. Previously, this had been a multilateral project between the Eternal Domain and the nurous tribes of Thunderous Swamp. Although the issues were solvable, the process involved many intricate details that consud considerable ti and money. Now that Thunderous Swamp was a unified entity, building its own infrastructure required a new set of rules.
Yan Xing first explained to the Clan Leaders the importance of roads. Traveling by the Thunderous Main Road, from the southern end to the northern end, one could make two round trips in a day by car. In contrast, the Eternal Domain’s army had taken two full days to reach the Heize territory after departing from Blood Crown City. Ti is money; ti is efficiency. If Thunderous Swamp wanted to achieve true unity in thought and action, it first had to build roads connecting every tribe. Only then could goods from within the tribes be transported out and external goods be brought in. Their people could then afford more food and clothing, and would have the capacity to bear more children, strengthening their tribes.
At this ti, with the opening of the main north-south and east-west roads, the Swamp Tribe Clan Leaders deeply felt the benefits of roads. Lord Yan Xing wanted to build roads right to their doorsteps; this was a truly great thing! It absolutely must be supported. The Eternal Domain’s great infrastructure plan for Thunderous Swamp was successfully passed.
The task of surveying the road construction routes was assigned to Duan’er. The Red Mud Wetland tribe had been involved in the Eternal Domain’s construction projects from the outset, participating in building all the roads. Duan’er, the Werewolf, though sowhat rigid in combat, was highly adept at logistics and construction. Under his command, the Southern Camp excelled in training, production, and construction, proving him to be a reliable asset. To enable Duan’er to work better in the Lizardman residential area, Yan Xing also appointed the Lianzu Chieftain as his deputy.
The third crucial agenda item was production. Yan Xing, having gained military knowledge through various channels in his previous world, knew well that logistics could often be the decisive factor in war. The census, large-scale infrastructure developnt, and mass production were all aid at bolstering the Eternal Domain’s logistical support capacity. In Yan Xing’s view, the upcoming war against Marquis Anderson was not the only conflict on the horizon.
Lady Karol sent news. As an envoy of the Silver Mane Duke, she was currently touring the various human nations. The Silvermane Principality’s war preparations were unsettling everyone, and long-buried conflicts among the human lords were gradually surfacing. The impending war against the Wildwind Highlands Legion was rely the spark that would ignite the flas.
