Volume 2 Playing with the Tribe Chapter 287
In a conference room on the side of the Dragon Palace, the Elders, the Witch Doctors, and the Tribal Leader and above gathered together, and the Buck and Ben glanced at each other, nodded and said:
"There are two people missing from the tribe today, one is a warrior of the original Blue Bird tribe, and the other is a craftsman who makes bronze ware on the side of the ash kiln."
The faces of the people on both sides of the conference table were serious, especially the eagle and goshawk of the Blue Bird Clan, and the red deer in charge of the ash kiln, whose faces were even more ugly.
The lark who had the accident this time was a warrior within the Blue Bird clan, who was responsible for hunting in peacetime, regularly participated in military training, and could participate in wartime, and was considered a militia reserve of the tribe according to the current statement. Hayabusa's squad of warriors accompanied White Fang to the copper mines, and their clan's militia was headed by a tall man named Vulture.
As for the ash kiln in charge of the red deer, the people on his side are all carefully selected from the slaves exchanged, and after many screenings and screenings, those who determine that there is no problem will be arranged to him. In particular, the candidates responsible for smelting and casting are strictly managed, commuting and commuting together, not allowed to go out alone, and there are soldiers around the ash kiln. Even if you go to the toilet, it is a separate toilet provided by the ash kiln.
But the defense is so tight, there is still a problem.
In addition to these three people, there was another person present whose face was the most ugly. That's Ben!
The leader has just left a few days, and he is in charge of such a big business, and he is very careful every day, for fear that something will go wrong, and it will not look good in front of the leader when he turns back. This is good, in a few days, such a big thing happened, can you not feel uncomfortable in your heart?
"Judging from the performance of these two people, there should be outsiders lurking around our Ningcheng, waiting for an opportunity to attack while the personnel are not paying attention. It's like the craftsman of the ash kiln is on the way back to the city, and he is lost without knowing it, and he can't see anyone alive or dead.
I had already ordered the city to be closed, and I was not allowed to leave the city without an order from me or Ben. Now go back and carefully discern whether your own people have been infiltrated by strangers. Especially among the newly exchanged slaves, it is necessary to distinguish carefully. If someone is caught, if there is someone who eats inside and crawls outside, he will be killed directly after asking the reason. ”
Ben was a little master at this time, and he was used to Ding Qi being in front of him, helping him to give various orders, and he came to carry them out. Now that it's happening, he's a little messy and doesn't know what to do.
When the bucks saw him like this, they knew they needed to step up.
"Xiong, arrange for the soldiers to be on duty, and the clans will organize the militia and hand it over to Ben to arrange. Extraordinary times, extraordinary actions, if there is no disobedience, there is no forgiveness! ”
The hearts of the people were in shock, and they hurried to obey the order.
After everyone left, there were only three people in the conference room: Buck, Ben, and Deer.
"Smack!"
The buck came to Ben, raised his hand and slapped the other party's face, directly beating Ben, and sat there in a daze, looking at the buck with an incredible face. Even the deer, who was about to get up, was startled and hurriedly stepped forward to hold his father so that he would not do it again.
"Ben! Does it hurt? If it hurts, get up quickly and organize the militia to act, and if it doesn't hurt, then I'll do it again. ”
The buck was angry, and he couldn't see Ben like this. As the leader of the original deer tribe, the bucks themselves are ready to hand over the tribe to Ben, believing that he is smart enough and has strong personal abilities. But I didn't expect that when this happened, I was at a loss, can this not make the bucks angry?
But it looks like his slap worked.
"Elder Stag, I'm sorry, I'm a little confused. You can rest assured, I will organize the manpower and will not make such a low-level mistake again. ”
Ben bowed his head and saluted the buck, admitting his mistake, and turned around and went out. Soon, a bull's horn sounded to call the militia.
Buck and deer in pairs
When they look at each other, they all see joy in each other's eyes.
In the afternoon, all the personnel in Ningcheng stayed in their own residences and were not allowed to leave. Ben's militia is checking each one by one, and the head of his own clan is making a name for it. The new slaves were arranged by Xiong for his squad leaders to count their own people one by one, for fear that someone would infiltrate.
In the past, there were guards on the city wall every night, and it remained the same that night, but there were secret guards in the hidden places of the city walls, on the horse paths, and at the city gates.
After counting the personnel, the militia conducted a dragnet inspection of the interior and corners of all the buildings of the tribe one by one to prevent anyone from getting in.
The rat was attacked in the Force tribe before, and there was a situation where the enemy from the Aoki tribe was hiding under their noses, and if it wasn't for the sound of the insects, they really wouldn't have noticed. He told the people in the tribe about the situation, so that the bucks, Ben, and bears paid special attention to this area, so that no one would take advantage of it again.
Ben's thoughts became clearer and clearer, and he immediately arranged for people to look for the group of people who had returned today, and asked the militia to carefully inspect the trees and grass inside Ningcheng. He feared that the people he had lost were most likely taken captive by the Aoki tribe, who were good at disguise.
The whole tribe took action, and the news came before the evening that nothing was found, and no problems were found for the time being. This made Bucks and Ben's hearts a little lighter, but they soon brought it up again.
If there is no problem inside, then the problem is outside the city, don't you let people go out to hunt and work? There are enemies outside the city who can attack at any time, and it's not a problem to be stuck in the city all the time!
What to do?
Ben saw the Bucks' inquiring eyes.
"Elder, I remember that when the leader was lecturing on military affairs, he once said a sentence that said, 'Respond to all changes with the same, and the enemy will not change with me'. There are still a lot of supplies stored in the city, enough for everyone to eat for five or six days. These days, we are tight on the outside and loose on the inside, but people cannot be idle, they can weave baskets, rub ropes, weave nets, etc. I don't believe these people can bear it! ”
Ben speaks his intentions and brings out what the leader has to say.
At the same time, in order not to startle the snakes, on the surface, the city gate will be opened every day, and two groups of elite soldiers will be arranged to go out to lure the enemy in disguise as work. Secretly, two groups of people were secretly arranged to go out secretly, and they were disguised according to what the leader had taught before, and they were distributed in the surrounding forests. As long as those people can't help it, they will always jump out, and then they can be killed. I'm not afraid of rats jumping, I'm afraid that rats will make holes! ”
As soon as Ben finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter.
The metaphor is vivid, the enemy is now a rat that can make holes. When they hide, it's hard to find them. Then do the opposite and force them out.
"In addition, early tomorrow morning, we will go through all the locations around the city, and then check if there are any places we have missed, especially the grass and trees between the ash kiln and the edge of the city, and tomorrow we will send people to clean them all up to ensure that we can see clearly within two hundred meters around the city. The warriors were staring, and I didn't believe they dared to come out blatantly. ”
In the case of missing persons, in fact, all the surrounding areas of the city must be checked at noon, and maybe the people can be turned out. Keben was at a loss at the time, didn't know what to do, and wasted the opportunity. It's not too late to think about it, it's just a matter of making amends.
Soon, Qianshui and Nushui were approached. The two of them have the ability to move at night, and can arrange for two groups of people to sneak out with all their equipment and hide in the surrounding woods for ambush.
At this moment, in the southeast corner of Ningcheng, Bai Guo, the captain of the Aoki tribe, who had been ambushed outside the fence of the Li tribe in a small forest, was nesting in a bush with people, adding a part of everyone's camouflage and preparing to transfer.
They are in the morning
Taking advantage of the dawn of the morning, he avoided the sight of the people in the city, and ambushed on the edge of a bush outside the city in disguise, he was ready to take advantage of the Ding tribesmen's unpreparedness to catch a person and dig out the key information of the Ding tribe.
Luckily, I don't know what happened to the Ding tribe, and after a sudden bang, I saw that group of people running back with all kinds of strangely shaped sticks, and they didn't even have a formation. Who knew that the man who ran at the end passed by the bushes where they were ambushed, and fell unsteadily in the bushes. This is a great thing, the quick-eyed Bai Guo didn't wait for the other party to get up and directly covered the other party's mouth, and slashed the other party with a knife and dragged him into the bushes.
Then they disguised themselves again, slowly moving out of the grass to the east of the ash kiln, and leading the people into the grove.
Bai Guo didn't know why there was such a chaotic scene in the Ding tribe today, but his goal was achieved, which really made him happy. To be on the safe side, it is still necessary to quickly hand over the people to another group of members of their own tribe behind, and then decide how to proceed with the next plan after asking for information.
Since he didn't dare to light a fire, he couldn't press the captured person, so he could only wait until tomorrow before dawn to flee from this place. They have plant juices that mask their own scent, and they are not afraid of animals spotting them at night, so they go to bed early by eating two fruits each.
On the mountain, outside the hole where Tinki's off-road pickup was hiding, a group of two dozen people were hiding in the dense bushes, lighting a small bonfire, and taking turns to roast meat.
Under the jumping firelight, a figure who seemed to be a leader was holding a unique mountain knife of the Ding tribe, rubbing it back and forth dozens of times, as if admiring a rare treasure.
If the golden bones of the Ugin tribe were here, he would have found out that this person was the enemy of their tribe, killing the merchant land of Chijin.
Shang Tu, who was tasked with reviving the tribe, was frightened by the rat and the woman, and managed to get out of adversity, not only did not gain anything in the last battle against the Li tribe, but also lost most of its warriors.
Originally, he was worried that the Ugin tribe would send someone to avenge Chijin, but he didn't expect that after waiting for a long time and not seeing the other party coming, he moved the idea of the Ding tribe to snatch the artifact again. As for the things that might incur the revenge of the Ugin tribe, he put it aside, because he felt that getting the artifact as soon as possible and improving the tribe's strength was the most important thing.
As everyone knows, the Ugin tribe, which has lost the red gold leader, lost a large number of tribesmen, and obtained half of the artifact, is now looking for ways to create more artifacts under the leadership of the tribal doctor witch, which is the reason why they did not take revenge in the first place.
The half-cut artifact brought back by the golden bones provides a reference sample for the Ugin tribe with great wealth, because they are the Ugin tribe, a tribe that owns metal, and there is more than one metal, there are Ugin, lapis gold, and red gold, which their ancestors accidentally obtained after a forest fire around the tribe, of which Ugin is the most. The lumpy, lumpy ones were enshrined behind the tribe's totem poles, like a hill.
Now the Ugin tribe is like a cave lion licking its wounds in a cave, and there will always be a day when the king returns.
Lurking in the forests on the outskirts of Ningcheng, every Ding tribesman Shang Tu saw was holding the artifact he had seen before, and his heart made him groan with excitement.
Therefore, they lurked, knocked a urinating man unconscious, and then killed him, snatched his weapons and animal skins and clothes, and hid in the bushes. As for the cave behind them, it had long been sealed with stone by Ding Qi, and now it was overgrown with vines, and it was impossible to tell from the outside that there was a cave behind it.
The man who was killed was armed with three weapons, a sword, a bronze spear, and a wooden bow and a bronze arrow. For Shangtu, the harvest is quite rich!
