Chapter 517: The Victims of the Fishing Tribe 2/2
Seeing He Chao's words of invitation, the scorpion leader automatically ignored what He Chao said earlier that seemed to be very right.
"The Xia Kingdom has sent an invitation to our tribe, should our tribe join the Xia Kingdom? How should I answer him......" After a few breaths, various thoughts appeared in the scorpion leader's mind, and in the end, he could only look at He Chao in silence.
He Chao understands that almost all the tribes that have the idea of joining the Xia Kingdom have joined the Xia Kingdom today, and the remaining tribes have not chosen to join the Xia Kingdom even if they face the natural disaster alone, and it is too difficult for them to join the Xia Kingdom just by sending an invitation.
The strategy of saluting first and then soldiering, no matter what, it is better to try first, send an invitation to these tribes, those tribes are best to accept the invitation, if they do not accept the invitation, then wait for the arrival of the Xia army.
He Chao looked at the scorpion leader who was in a silent state and continued: "The leader of the scorpion tribe, you don't need to make a decision in a short period of time, let your scorpion tribe join our Xia country, this is a very big matter for the scorpion tribe, and it needs to be thought about carefully.
I can make a guarantee, as long as your scorpion tribe joins the Xia country, the scorpion tribe will become a clan of our Xia country, and the clansmen of the scorpion tribe will have the same status as our Xia country, and enjoy the same happy life as our Xia people.
The leader of the Scorpion Tribe, you still want to watch your people busy from morning to night every day, just to solve the problem of food, and there are cold winters and various enemies that the Scorpion Tribe needs to face, as long as your Scorpion Tribe joins our Xia Kingdom, all this is not a problem
That's all, it's not too early, our fleet will continue to go to the next tribe, and I hope that the scorpion tribe can make a decision this year, the door of our Xia country has been open for the scorpion tribe, and the scorpion tribe is welcome to join our Xia country. ”
He Chao finished speaking, and left in the complicated eyes of the scorpion leader, now the scorpion leader's head is very messy, and he doesn't know what to do, He Chao's words make the scorpion leader's heart move, but now most of the high-level leaders of the scorpion tribe choose the scorpion tribe to develop independently/independently, and strive to become a powerful tribe like Xia Guo one day, instead of joining Xia Guo and becoming a member of Xia Guo.
In fact, there is a big problem in He Chao's words, it is difficult for people outside the Xia Kingdom to think of this problem, but most people in the Xia Kingdom understand this problem.
It is a truth that there is great power in numbers, but it is not an absolute word, and the number of people alone cannot represent everything.
If you want to have a larger population, the first point is the issue of food, you have to have enough food to feed more people.
With a large population, you also need to craft weapons to arm yourself, and your bare hands are no match for those who wipe-armoured with stone weapons and wisteria armor.
After that, it was fully developed, the more people there were, the more problems there were, the expansion of farmland, the relocation of people to establish divisions, the defense of enemies, and so on.
If a tribe suddenly increases in population, it is a huge problem whether it can feed everyone.
Fortunately, it is almost impossible for anyone in the scorpion tribe to understand this truth, and it is still easier to use "more people and more power" to fool outsiders, and even the scorpion leader thinks that this is right.
The second trading fleet departed, and the scorpion leader returned to the tribe's place of residence, and convened a meeting of all the high-ranking officials to discuss the invitation sent by the Xia Kingdom to the scorpion tribe.
No matter what happened to the Scorpion Tribe and what decisions were made, the three trading fleets of the Xia Kingdom continued their journey, and the first and second trading fleets would stop at each tribe to send New Year's gifts and send out invitations.
Sailing all the way, the first trading fleet arrived at the Yan clan's hometown, put down all the city builders on board, and even unloaded a large number of turns.
Preparations for the construction of the city were completed last year, and most of the houses in the temporary settlements had been crushed during the winter and had to be rebuilt before construction could begin.
This is only the first trip to the city, less than 800 people, and in a few days there will be another fleet that will bring people and supplies, and that fleet will be part of the Ministry of Transportation.
Then, after sailing through the river corresponding to the fishing tribe, the third trading fleet entered the area that had never been entered.
After leaving the fishing tribe and driving about three-quarters of the day, the third trading fleet found the first tribe, located on the south bank of the Yellow River, after discovering this tribe, the third trading fleet slowly approached, and before the third trading fleet approached the riverbank, the tribe immediately put on a vigilant appearance, the stone weapon was clenched, and the bowstring was already open.
Fortunately, this tribe did not attack the ships close to the river bank, cautiously, the two sides completed the first exchange, after learning that this fleet came from the Xia country and not from the fishing tribe, this tribe with the moon as a totem breathed a sigh of relief, and in the gesture exchange, the third trade fleet also knew some information about the Yue tribe.
The original population of nearly 1,000 people of the Moon tribe once lived in the area relatively close to the fishing tribe, in the years when the natural disaster was serious, the fishing tribe changed from a peace-loving to take the initiative to start a war, the Yue tribe was a tribe threatened by the war of the fishing tribe, that time the Yue tribe took out half of their tribe's grain to protect themselves.
The high-level leaders of the Moon Tribe were worried that the Fishing Tribe would take action against the Moon Tribe in the future, and unanimously decided to move.
The Moon tribe's move was not a casual move, that year the Moon tribe continued to live in their hometown with trepidation, secretly sent people to find a suitable area to build a new home, and in the spring of the following year, the Moon tribe moved to the current place of residence.
By land, it takes more than three days to travel from the fishing tribe to the new home of the Yue tribe, which is basically far from the threat of the fishing tribe.
In fact, the Moon tribe was right, many of them handed over half of their food under the threat of war from the fishing tribes, and in the second or third year, they were once again handed over by the fishing tribes with the threat of war, and several tribes were wiped out because of the fishing tribes.
The next thing is to trade, the third trade fleet took out a lot of goods that the Moon tribe needed, but the Moon tribe couldn't come up with anything to exchange, the animal skin was needed by the Xia Kingdom, but the natural disaster did not completely subside, the Moon tribe did not take out the animal skin for trading, and finally the third trade fleet took a little bit of the crops planted by the Moon tribe, and half sold and half gave the Yue tribe a little weapons and equipment.
Ending the trade with the Moon Tribe, the Third Trade Fleet continued to travel eastward, and there were more tribes in the east waiting for the Third Trade Fleet to make contact, and on the huge map in the cabin of the head of the Third Trade Fleet, there was an extra circle much smaller than the Fishing Tribe in the area east of the Fishing Tribe, marked with the words Shangyue Tribe.
