Chapter 420: Small Tribe, Big Ambition 1/2

"Let's go, let's go home!"

The leader of Aoki shouted, and a large team of more than a thousand people slowly advanced in the direction of the Aoki tribe, the inner side of the team was a captive bound by straw ropes, and the outer side of the team were Aoki tribesmen with weapons in their hands.

Just yesterday, the Aoki tribe completed this year's foreign campaign plan, destroying a tribe of 1,000 people, the Aoki tribe killed six adult males and 32 adult females, wounded nearly 100 people, and obtained 84 adult male captives, 229 adult female captives, and 495 juvenile captives at a small price.

There are so many captives alone, and there are a large number of animal skins, food and other booty, the Aoki tribe needs to escort the captives back, and they can't carry too much loot, and the Aoki leader plans to wait until most of the captives are traded to the dragon tribe, and then organize the clansmen to come back and take all the booty away.

After nearly four days, the large team of the Aoki tribe finally returned, and on the third day when the white flag was flying on the riverbank, the second trading fleet of the returning ships arrived at the Aoki tribe.

The Aoki tribe had to trade a total of eighty-one adult male captives and four hundred and ninety-two juvenile captives, which could be exchanged for one hundred and eighteen copper weapons, and the Aoki leader decided to exchange them for fifty copper weapons, eighty rattan armors, and eighty rattan shields, and the rest were exchanged for white salt and a small amount of peppercorn powder.

Rattan armor and rattan shields are considered consumables, and they are more easily damaged than strong and sharp copper weapons, and the Aoki tribe should trade more rattan armor and rattan shields as reserves, and copper weapons should also trade as much as possible.

All adult males of the Aoki tribe have bronze weapons and even a set of rattan armor and rattan shields, and the choice is to equip each woman born and raised from the Aoki tribe with a bronze weapon as much as possible.

As for the women who came in after the Aoki tribe launched a foreign war, it was better to use stone weapons for the time being, and even when the tribe lived, they would not be equipped with weapons at all.

The ratio of men and women in the Aoki tribe has been seriously imbalanced, and for the women who have been obtained in the war, it will take time for them to fully integrate into the Aoki tribe, fight if they are disobedient, and use their bodies to conquer them, it is best to let them conceive children and give birth to children, and with children as a bond, the resistance in the hearts of women will be slowly consumed.

The second trade fleet had enough goods to trade with the Aoki tribe, but the second trade fleet only had a total of five Class A ships, and there was no way to transport so many people back at once, so they could only be traded in two batches.

Seeing the relationship between the Aoki tribe and the dragon tribe for so many transactions, the second trading fleet directly gave all the goods that Aoki needed to the Aoki tribe, and the leader of Aoki said that he would definitely take care of these captives who already belonged to the dragon tribe.

Take care of the captives? No one would believe this, at most the Aoki tribesmen would not have killed and starved these captives.

Carrying half of the population, the second trade fleet quickly sailed back, looking at the distant dragon tribe fleet, the leader of Aoki sighed, the leader of Aoki has never let go of his vigilance against the dragon tribe.

There are two tribes that the leader of Aoki is worried about, one is the Dragon Tribe, and the other is the "Blood Tiger Tribe" located in the west of the Aoki Tribe, which is actually the Yang City of the Dragon Tribe, which is impossible for the Aoki tribe to understand.

Earlier, because of the "move" of the Rat Tribe and the Black Bear Tribe, the leader of Aoki sent people to understand the situation of the Blood Tiger Tribe, and the tall walls of the Blood Tiger Tribe were indeed very shocking, but the leader of Aoki guessed that the Blood Tiger Tribe had suffered a lot of losses in the war, and it would not pose a threat to the Aoki tribe for the time being, and the two tribes would be safe for at least a long time.

In addition, the weapons and equipment traded from the Dragon Tribe and the victory in the foreign war gave the Aoki leader and all the Aoki tribesmen a lot of confidence, believing that even if the Blood Tiger Tribe attacked the Aoki Tribe, the Aoki Tribe would win the war.

There should still be a sense of vigilance, and after that, the leader of Aoki often sent his clansmen to investigate the situation of the Blood Tiger Tribe.

However, during this year's spring ploughing, during an investigation of the Blood Tiger Tribe, the busy figure of nearly 2,000 people outside the Blood Tiger Tribe greatly shocked the Aoki tribesmen, so the leader of Aoki also personally went to the Blood Tiger Tribe to observe.

Everyone understands the simple truth that there are many people and great strength, the leader of Aoki can feel the strong strength of the Blood Tiger Tribe, if he finds out about the situation of the Blood Tiger Tribe before the war with the Wolf Tribe, the leader of Aoki will immediately choose to let the Aoki tribe move, move to a place far away from the Blood Tiger Tribe.

Now that the Aoki tribe is no longer weak, and the current living area of the Aoki tribe can trade with the dragon tribe to obtain a large number of weapons, the Aoki leader will not easily choose the option of moving, at most it is to prepare a second home for the Aoki tribe and leave a way back for himself.

Aoki's victories in many foreign conquests have greatly increased the confidence of the Aoki Chief, who believes that the tribe will be able to continue to develop under his leadership, even to the point that it will be stronger than the Dragon Tribe, and perhaps the time will come to conquer the Dragon Tribe, and obtain the technology to make bronze weapons, rattan shields, and rattan armor from the Dragon Tribe.

……

At present, there are three types of foreign trade of the Dragon Tribe, which can bring huge trade to the Dragon Tribe.

The first is the Aoki tribe, the small Aoki tribe has an "ambition" to conquer the dragon tribe, but the Aoki tribe does bring huge benefits to the dragon tribe, and the Aoki tribe is the main way for the dragon tribe to obtain servants.

The dragon tribe likes such an ambitious tribe, and the ambitious tribe will continue to wage wars with the outside world, and the dragon tribe can also get huge benefits from it, so the ambitious tribe is developing, and the dragon tribe is developing faster, and wants to fight back? The dragon tribe can be wiped out.

The second is the nomadic tribe, the dragon tribe can obtain a large number of cattle and horses from the nomadic tribe, use the ox to plow the field, grind, use the horse to quickly communicate on the land to plow the land, and use the horse-drawn cart to quickly transport a large number of goods on the land.

Nomadic tribes also have disadvantages, nomadic tribes will not stay in one area forever, and the dragon tribe's trading fleet has to find new nomadic tribes to trade with every year, which is a very troublesome thing.

The third is the Japanese tribe camp, and the dragon tribe can obtain a large number of animal skins from the Japanese tribe camp and a small part of the population.

The status of the Japanese tribe camp is not worse than that of the Aoki tribe, after all, the population of the Japanese tribe camp is there, and the potential is huge, and the dragon tribe is likely to obtain more benefits from the Japanese tribe camp than the Aoki tribe in the future.

At present, these three are the main trading objects of the Dragon Tribe, which is still too little for the Dragon Tribe, and the Dragon Tribe needs more trading partners that can bring huge benefits to the Dragon Tribe.

It's a pity that the speed of the A-type ship is not good, and it is not possible to sail farther in the limited time, and it is hoped that the second shipyard that will be built soon will be able to build a larger and faster B-type ship.
