Volume 2 Planting Chapter 183 Remembering and Being Worried (Proofreading)
Just when the leader was thinking about letting the Youniu clan attack his tribe, so as to try the power of these defensive weapons, and by the way, he could get some people according to what the Son of Heaven said, the issue of how to deal with the Tianlong tribe within the Youniu clan was already in a boil.
There are two views held by the Niu family:
Some people believe that their tribe is not short of food, life is okay, and the salt and pottery they need can also be obtained through trade, and there is no need to go on an expedition to abandon their tribe's rich food sources and go to a place where hunting is relatively difficult.
What's more, the salt owned by this tribe is still uncertain, whether it is their own, if this tribe is also obtained through trading, then it will be meaningless to take this tribe, because salt is a consumable, and no matter how much you grab it, you will eat it one day.
Those who hold another view believe that the Tianlong tribe has a good living environment and rich food storage, and after taking this tribe, their own tribe can easily spend the winter.
And the Tianlong tribe also knows how to raise animals, with the strength of their own tribe, they can naturally raise more animals in the future, so that they have a safe living environment, and food is no longer a problem, even if salt can not be obtained stably, it is better than their own tribe in the grassland wind and sun, suffering from cold and heat.
And the Tianlong tribe once let its tribe suffer a big loss, although it did not cause casualties, but this revenge must be avenged.
The number of people who hold these two views is basically evenly divided, but because the attitude of the female chieftain Yan is more inclined to a peaceful way of exchange.
So after the 9 people who went to the Tianlong tribe came back, the two sides chattered and quarreled non-stop for half a day this night, but they never made up their minds.
Because of the large number of personnel, no one was convinced, so when the leader was elected, the spouse of the former leader, Yan, was elected as the leader of the tribe, just to achieve a balance.
But in fact, the female leader Yan has a very limited voice in the tribe, and important decisions are generally made by the elder group after consultation, but on the surface, everyone respects the female leader.
This distribution of power is a bit of the rudimentary form of the primitive summit parliamentary system.
In the past, it was easy for several elders to reach a consensus on other decisions of the tribe, but this time, the description of the nine people who came back from the Tianlong tribe was too tempting.
Those who insisted on attacking believed that this tribe was far inferior to their own tribe and that it was worth waging this war just to occupy the other party's kind of house that was warm in winter and cool in summer.
Although there is no shortage of food on the grassland, in the summer they live in airtight animal skin tents, which can steam people in hot weather, and in the cold winter, there is a lack of heating fuel on the grassland, and everyone is frozen into dogs.
Life is too difficult, not to mention that the Tianlong tribe provoked himself first, not only designed to capture all the people on his side at the beginning, but now he has "detained" a person from his own tribe, which is the so-called tolerable, which is unbearable, and this tribe must be given the lesson it deserves.
Of the five elders of the tribe, three supported the attack, and the other two and the leader Yan tended to exchange supplies and exchange ideas, and finally supported the three elders who were fighting, and persuaded one of the other two elders, so the decision to attack the Tianlong tribe was passed.
Since then, there have been two factions within the Niu clan, and the female leader Yan who wants to live in peace with another elder wolf, that is, the warrior who tried to hunt Wang Tian at the beginning, has now become a minority.
The two of them were constantly reminding the other four elders that the Celestial Dragon Tribe had a powerful weapon such as bows and arrows, and it was conducive to the protection of the defensive city wall, and it was not an easy task to take down the Celestial Dragon Tribe.
But these 4 elders were not moved by this, they thought that the number of warriors in their tribe was three times that of them, and they could not win if they fought one of three?
After the decision to attack was made, the two opposing people had no choice but to start implementing the decision, after all, the minority had to obey the majority.
So the Niu clan decided that three days later, 9 people who had been to the Tianlong tribe would lead the team and start the conquest of the Tianlong tribe, and the purpose was the territory of this tribe.
For the next two days, they stored food, made dry rations, repaired their weapons, and looked like a fierce soldier...
……
When the Tianlong tribe was remembered by others, Wang Tian was also worried about other people's tribes at this time.
Soon after separating from the giant pandas, the rafting team had already arrived at the River Tribe, and Wang Tian was pleased to find that the cave of the River tribe turned out to be a natural copper mine exposed to the outside.
At first, Wang Tian saw that the cliff wall of the River tribe cave was green on the river, and he thought it was a plant such as a creeper, but after approaching, he found that it was malachite.
Malachite is an ancient jade, is the earliest decoration of human beings, the main component is basic copper carbonate, its content is more than 7 percent, ancient China called malachite "green green", "stone green" or "green Langji".
Malachite is named because the color resembles the green of the spots on the peacock's feathers, and is produced in the oxide zone of copper sulfide deposits.
After Wang Tian entered the cave of the River Tribe, he was shocked by the scene in front of him, the malachite here was not just a small part of the earth's surface.
It can be seen from the fault of the River tribe cave that the thickness of malachite has reached more than 50 cm, and the turquoise natural swirl shape, like an emerald-like luster, makes people love it.
The arrival of the Tianlong tribe did not panic the River tribe, because the entire Tianlong tribe and his party, including Wang Tianzai, were only 13 people.
At this time, all the people of the River tribe were in the tribe, and Wang Tian was very curious about this, why didn't they go out hunting?
Could it be that they, like their own tribes, have already received enough food?
However, when Wang Tian looked at the bottom of the cave, the small pile of fruits that were not very large did not seem to be like this.
At this time, the second brother had already walked towards their leader fish, and after the two leaders met, they gently touched each other with their foreheads.
After squeezing each other's right hands into fists and patting them on their chests, this is a sign of friendship, and after the two leaders exchanged cold words, the second brother of King Kong asked the question that Wang Tian wanted to ask.
When the people of the River tribe heard the second brother of King Kong say this, their faces all showed a sad look, and they were silent one by one, and under the repeated questioning of the second brother, their leader Yu said the reason.
It turned out that in the area where the River Tribe often hunted, there were two huge monsters, one large and one small, with long noses and a pair of terrifying fangs, which had not left since they came to the area of the River Tribe.
The constant dry fight with the local indigenous emperor wild boar made the river tribe have no way to hunt, and the plant food such as wild fruits and stems has been harmed by these two tyrants.
The River Tribe's adult warriors, including women, numbered only about 40, and the male warriors numbered less than 20, and the attempt to drive the long-nosed, fanged monster out of their sphere of influence still ended in failure.
For this reason, the River tribe also lost 5 people, two men and three women, for the already small number of River tribes, this is tantamount to adding insult to injury!
Wang Tian stepped forward and said, "Fish leader, have you thought of a way to deal with this monster?" If you don't drive them out, how will you get food, how will you survive this winter! ”
When Wang Tian heard the description of the fish chief, he had already guessed that the monster in question was most likely an Asian elephant, and the area of activity of Asian elephants in later generations was limited to Southeast Asia and parts of Yunnan in China.
But in fact, in ancient times, or even later, Asian elephants were all over East Asia, and there are records of Cao Chong calling elephants during the Three Kingdoms, which is a good proof.
Now the River tribe is facing a food crisis, for the Tianlong tribe, this is good news, Wang Tian has seen the opportunity to peacefully annex this tribe, what he didn't expect is that when he was worried about other people's tribes, his own tribe has also been remembered by others......
