Bab 133: 33
Chapter 271 Empire, Offspring, and Dragon Egg
October 310 AC.
The Long Night had lasted for five years and was far more cruel than Jack had expected.
Even though they were well prepared and even had the honeycomb coal heating invented by Jack, about 1.1 million people have still died so far.
Among them, one million people died in Westeros, and among these one million people, 99% were civilians under the old aristocratic forces in the south.
In addition, a total of about 100,000 people died in the Free Trade Coast, Laza Province, Qarth Province under the jurisdiction of the Empire, and the Yilin Province established by Sothoryos before the arrival of the Long Night.
The situation on Neptune Island was much better, with no one dying.
In the third year after the long night came, Neptune Island completed the construction of the steam heating system.
In addition, dried oil fish is also a perfect combustion material. The price of fast-growing oil fish is similar to that of honeycomb coal, and it is also one of the fuels for heating.
The Palace of Poseidon, which serves as the administrative and residential palace of Poseidon, is a place with brilliant lights and walls, as bright and warm as summer.
Jack listened to Asidorf's report that the death toll in Westeros was rising. Even if he kept 70% of the supplies in his own hands and distributed them to civilians in a fixed amount, the amount of supplies was still far from enough.
The war had such an impact on Westeros that a large amount of supplies that were supposed to be used to deal with the long night were used for the war.
Of course, the main reason was Jack's order.
Under Jack's orders, the subjects of the old nobles could receive relief supplies as long as they went to the Church of Poseidon to pray and work.
In the past, it was very normal for more than 90% of people to die in the long nights. The things in the hands of the nobles were not prepared for the common people.
For the nobles, as long as there are still people to farm for them after the long night, it doesn't matter how many people die.
After discussion, Jack and Asidorf agreed that the time was right and it was time to completely control the continent of Westeros.
Then twenty-four Sea Dragon 217-type transport ships sailed out of the port, carrying a large amount of supplies to the continent of Westeros.
The Sea Dragon Type 217 transport ship is a steam battleship. Jack has proposed a large number of research ideas, and with the huge bonus system, the Sea King Island has begun the steam revolution.
Facts have proved that the reason why this world is still in the feudal fiefdom system or slavery system after thousands of years of development is not because the people here are hopelessly stupid.
As long as you are willing to invest money, provide the corresponding conditions, and point out the research path, you can quickly enter the steam stage.
And Jack had anticipated this day would come.
As early as the arrival of the long night, after he signed a non-aggression treaty with the free trade city-states, he began to buy some unclaimed land in various city-states at high prices.
Then build a military base in the name of building a factory.
A large amount of supplies have long been secretly stored in these bases. Even if supplies are unavailable after the long night arrives, the empire can still rely on the supplies stored in these bases to travel back and forth between the two continents.
In September 311 AC, a large amount of supplies successfully arrived at White Harbor.
In the same month, Poseidon's first offspring was born. Jack named him Dagon and gave him to Elizabeth Poseidon to raise.
A year passes in the blink of an eye.
On August 1, 312 AC, Jack Poseidon suddenly announced his abdication and became the emperor emeritus, and Queen Elizabeth Poseidon succeeded to the throne.
Elizabeth Poseidon is Jack Poseidon's most outstanding child. She is very talented in politics. After being taught by Jack, she is adept at manipulating power.
In the third month of Queen Elizabeth's reign, that is, November 312 AC.
The peasants in the south of Westeros began to revolt. They did not accept their fate. They wanted to be the masters of their own house and survive!
The scale of the peasant uprising was large, and it could almost be said that one call led to a hundred responses. The most important thing was that the rebels did not seem to lack supplies, which made the noble class realize something.
Not only did unrest occur in the south, but peasant uprisings also broke out in the north and even in the Iron Islands.
During this long night without sunlight, war once again broke out in Westeros.
The aristocracy was defeated step by step, and soon it came to a point of life and death. The armies of both sides gathered in Hejian, ready to fight to the death.
However, this fateful battle did not take place. At the critical moment, Queen Elizabeth arrived riding a dragon, accompanied by Caraxeus and Drogon.
Seeing the Queen of the Empire riding three giant dragons, both sides temporarily stopped fighting.
Later, under the mediation of Elizabeth, the two sides reached a ceasefire, but the rebels put forward three conditions.
The first condition is that all places in Westeros must be reformed in accordance with the current system in the North.
The second condition was that the House of Lords would be changed, with the Empire occupying ten seats and the remaining eight seats being divided equally between representatives of the nobility and commoners.
The third condition is land. The ownership of the land belongs to the empire, but civilians must have the right to use, lease and renew the land.
Finally, representatives of the rebels and nobles signed a treaty under the witness of Elizabeth, and the country was returned to the empire.
The nobles knew very well that this was all a conspiracy, and the peasant uprising was just a cover!
But they had no choice. They had predicted this day would come several years ago. They just didn't expect it would come so soon, and they didn't expect Jack couldn't even wait until the long night was over.
Because Elizabeth was well prepared, the reform of Westeros went very smoothly and took only one year.
315AC.
Lyanna Mormont's eldest son, Elkan Poseidon, was crowned Prince of the North by Elizabeth, and Jack gave him a yellow dragon egg from the Shadow Land.
Sansa Stark's eldest son, Amos Poseidon, was crowned Prince of the Riverlands by Elizabeth, and Jack gave him a white dragon egg, which was the descendant of Viserion.
Viteliel finally fulfilled her wish fifteen years ago and gave birth to a litter of big fat boys for Jack. Her eldest son, Ticus Poseidon, was crowned Prince of the Valley by Elizabeth. Jack gave Ticus a yellow dragon egg, which was said to be the descendant of a sheep thief and came from the treasure house of the Irene family.
Ellie and Jager each gave birth to a son and a daughter for Jack. Ellie's eldest son Carol Poseidon and Jager's eldest daughter Tiana Poseidon were respectively named prince and princess, and jointly governed the Westerly. Jack sent two dragon eggs, one blue and one red. The dragon eggs were the offspring of Carax and Drogon.
Although the two of them jointly ruled the West, Ellie and Jacob were both born as bed slaves and were just vases given to them by others. Jack handed over the West to their children because they were the first ones to serve him, which was considered to be his responsibility to the end.
Myrcella Poseidon's eldest son, Dominic Poseidon, was crowned Prince of Stormlands, and Jack gave him a blue dragon egg from the Land of Shadows.
Margaery Tyrell's eldest daughter, Lidoviya Poseidon, was promoted from an honorary princess to an official princess of the Riverland, governing the Riverland for the Poseidon family. Jack also gave her a red dragon egg without hesitation. The dragon egg was the offspring of Caraxus and Drogon.
Arianne Martell's eldest son, Aset Poseidon, was also named Prince of Dorne. Jack gave Aset a yellow dragon egg from the Shadow Land.
