As Zhu Jue began to send messages to them, the three governors all fell silent and listened respectfully. No one dared to interrupt before Zhu Jue finished his speech. This is the majesty of the Divine Envoy King.
Zhu Jue's words were concise and contained a large amount of information. They were his usual brain talk style, but they were still much more verbose than most ants' words:
"The three governor-general areas are developing very well. You have done well. You have opened up the territory, conquered the indigenous people, and built ant nests. The ant colonies have increased a lot, and the tribute has increased a lot. The God Envoy King is satisfied."
"The Governor's Territory also has disadvantages. The territory is too narrow and long, like a sunflower seed, and it is difficult to manage. Ramboser lives in [Little Magnet City] in winter, [Victory City] in spring and autumn, and it is difficult to live in a new territory in summer. Centipede Python, Nobita, It’s also difficult.”
"The governorate shall be divided into three, and divided equally into six."
Zhu Jue finally stated the purpose of his trip. The three governors did not dare to interrupt and waited for the Divine Envoy King to continue his explanation. But from the emotional fluctuations that they tried hard to suppress but could still be felt from the tentacles, Zhu Jue knew that they were not as calm as that hard and unchanging shell. Their minds were fluctuating, and they obviously had negative emotions.
Although the three ants of "Ramboser III" had received news from the nobles close to the main nest [Little Magnet City] half a year ago, they generally knew that Zhu Jue had already had this idea and wanted to divide their jurisdiction. Half of the viceroyalty became a direct jurisdiction model. But they have no position or reason to object. It's just that they don't have the emotion to settle before the leaves finally fall to the ground.
Now that Zhu Jue has pointed it out, they dare not object openly, but some of their emotions are normal. This is not like the food collected by the worker ants being handed over to the ants for free, but more like the high-end supplies that the nobles themselves enjoy being deprived of. Half the feeling.
Zhu Jue specifically emphasized that this was God's decree. As the God's Messenger King, after prohibiting all lairs from building sacred passages and accepting God's decree from the sky, he was the only messenger and spokesperson of the illusory God in this world, but with his Prestige is only needed when it is very necessary to use the name of God to provide legal endorsement for one's actions in the form of divine decree.
If the male ants had not formed a large force and were very united, and if the three governors had not worked hard for three years, Zhu Jue would not have needed to deal with it so solemnly.
The current situation is that the territory of the three governor-general areas is too huge, there are too many ant colonies, the resources are too rich, and the production is too important. If they unite, they can even compete with the locals on the south bank of the Qinghe River. Zhu Jue will not allow internal constraints to appear in this war era, even if there are no signs yet but just hidden dangers, because once such worries become reality, it will have a huge impact on the entire system of the Ant Alliance, and will have a huge impact on his unique god. The noble status of the king is also a challenge.
But he still needs governors to continue to expand territory for the Ant Alliance. Therefore, taking away half of the territory under the governor's jurisdiction and the ant's mouth is still the longest and most developed territory in the north. It can greatly enrich the local power and weaken the local powerful factions. Under the current situation where the fierce battle on the northern and western fronts is raging, the eastern front can still be maintained, and transportation in his homeland is inconvenient, Zhu Jue has the urgency and legitimacy to do this. However, the three governors were still allowed to retain half of the territory and about a quarter of the citizens. The foundation was better than when the three governors were first divided, and they would not completely lose the power to continue to develop.
Faced with the Destroyer's invasion wave that gets stronger year after year, the Ant Alliance can only be destroyed if it doesn't resist, and can only be dragged down if it doesn't develop. Only Zhu Jue can manage to maintain such a complicated situation. Therefore, the three governors need to be appeased because of their hard work, otherwise they will lose their fighting spirit to continue to attack cities and fortresses for the Ant Alliance.
Especially when there was no reason to replace them together, Zhu Jue did not want this incident to change the original open and covert fight between them into secret communication, and the change from pioneering and progressive to sluggish.
So Zhu Jue paused for a moment, and after they finished digesting what they just said, he continued: "Lamboser, you have been the most meritorious in the past three years, and you will be named a Duke."
Zhu Jue gave his compensation, and "Lamboser" indeed became happy, and his excitement was transmitted to the tentacles of the other three ants.
The title system has been implemented in the Ant United Kingdom for several years. Previously, Zhu Jue discovered that this system existed in civilized ant tribes such as the Leaf Cutting Ant Nation. The names for titles in brain language are very unique. The title systems of different civilization ant tribes They are different, but they can all play a role in distinguishing status within the nobility. It is much more convenient than simply relying on seniority to determine status, and it is also easier to reward merit.
Zhu Jue began to implement the five-level title system in the Ant Alliance, and directly called him Gonghou Bozinan based on his own knowledge. Of course, it was a completely different expression in brain language. It's just that Zhu Jue is stingy about the distribution of titles. He will not grant titles unless he has merit. This makes the titles in the Ant Alliance very valuable. So far, less than 20% of the nobles have received titles.
Although a title is not the same as an official position, some nobles with low titles or even no titles in important positions may not necessarily have less power than nobles with higher titles. However, if it is a meeting, sacrifice, meeting, etc., the judgment between the two parties will be completely based on the title. Seniority and inferiority are all determined by seniority. Coupled with the additional rights to enjoy the precious materials provided by the title, the title is not inheritable like the surname, which makes obtaining the title very attractive for every noble.
"Lamboser III" was awarded the high-level title of Marquis when the territory was last cut into three pieces. The previous governors were all earls. Now he directly becomes a Duke. You must know that there are only 7 Dukes in the entire Ant Alliance, among which there are only 3 Big-headed Ant Dukes. The other 4 Dukes who joined the Ant Clan are far from being comparable to the Big-headed Ant Dukes in terms of power.
Zhu Jue stopped talking again, "Lamboser III" hurriedly lowered his body and turned to face Zhu Jue, and the other two ants stepped aside knowingly. Both tentacles of "Lamboser III" were placed under Zhu Jue's tentacles to express his gratitude. Zhu Jue was worried in his heart that the other party was already a duke, and he would not be able to use the title to reward his merits next time.
Putting this thought aside, the four ants resumed their original positions. Sure enough, Zhu Jue announced that he would make the "Centiper Python III" a marquis, and "Centiper Python III" also expressed his gratitude in the same gesture.
Finally, Zhu Jue looked at "Nobita III" who was already trembling with excitement, thinking in his heart!
