Chapter 500: War! War! 1/2
The spring ploughing had just ended, and under the leadership of the Japanese tribe and the fishing tribe, the food war broke out again, and it broke out at least a month earlier than last year.
The Japanese Tribe Camp, the Japanese Tribe and the seven affiliated tribes gathered nearly half of the fighters of the Japanese Tribe Camp to form a large army of 2,500 Japanese Tribal Camp.
At present, the total population of the Japanese tribal camp is about 13,000 people, and there are about 5,500 adult tribesmen, and 2,500 people are mobilized to fight.
The proportion of male warriors in the army was almost half, and each male warrior was equipped with bronze weapons and rattan shields from the Xia Kingdom, and three hundred male warriors were equipped with rattan armor from the Xia Kingdom.
It can be seen from this that the strength of the Japanese tribal camp, the population of the fishing tribe is more than the Japanese tribal camp by thousands, but the fishing tribe is basically not the opponent of the Japanese tribal camp, on the one hand, the fishing tribe is equipped with copper weapons not as many as the Japanese tribal camp, on the other hand, the peace-loving fishing tribal camp has very few large-scale wars, which is not as good as the Japanese tribal camp that often fights.
In the years before the armistice, the Japanese tribe camp mobilized a large army to attack the Night Bear Alliance, and the total population of the Night Bear Alliance was one or two thousand higher than that of the Japanese tribe camp, but in the continuous years of war, the Night Bear Alliance was defeated again and again, making the total population of the Night Bear Alliance drop to a level similar to that of the Japanese tribe camp.
What's more, in the war, the most losses of the Night Bear Alliance are the adult clansmen, the adult clansmen of the Japanese tribal camp are about 5,500 people, and the number of adult clansmen of the Night Bear Alliance is less than 4,000, this is still in the case of the Night Bear Alliance lowering the adult standard of the clansmen, if it is calculated according to the adult standard of the Japanese tribal camp, the number of adult clansmen of the Night Bear Alliance may be reduced to less than 3,000.
If it weren't for extreme climate change, it would only take a year or two for the Japanese Tribe camp to wipe out the Night Bear Alliance.
However, the Japanese tribal camp got the news of the "winter change" from the Xia country, stopped the war, and two years later, the Night Bear Alliance is still alive, but in these two years, the Night Bear Alliance has also lived very hard.
Cold winters, floods, droughts, crop yields, food wars, two years have passed, more than 1,000 people have frozen, starved, and died in battle in the Night Bear Alliance, and the main ones who froze and starved to death were minors, and the main ones who died in the war were adults.
It can be said that the current population of the Night Bear Alliance is not as large as the Sun Tribe camp, not to mention the strength of the Night Bear Alliance.
The army of the Japanese tribe camp quickly moved towards the area where the Night Bear Alliance is located, and when it approached the area of the Night Bear Alliance, it was discovered by the spy team of the Night Bear Alliance, and the truce was held for two consecutive years, and this year the Japanese tribe camp did not give the Night Bear Alliance a truce, and the Night Bear Alliance was worried that the Japanese tribe camp was coming, so it has been arranging for the spy team to be sentry here, but I didn't expect the Japanese tribe camp army to really come.
The spy team hurriedly returned with the news, and in the face of the approaching army of the Sun Tribe camp, the Night Tribe camp and the bear tribe camp hastily selected two-thirds of the adult clan and some of the clansmen who were close to adulthood to form an army of more than 3,000 people.
"Hold off the enemy at all costs." The Night Leader and the Bear Leader made up their minds.
The bear leader is still the bear leader, but the night leader has changed someone, the former night leader was defeated by the day tribe camp in the night tribe camp that was once stronger than the Japanese tribe camp, and he fled from the home that had been in business for a long time, the former night leader felt guilty, felt sorry for his ancestors and the dead clansmen, gave up the position of leader, and died in a war against the Japanese tribe camp.
How could the 3,000-strong army of the Night Bear Alliance stop the 2,500-strong army of the Japanese tribe camp? With the current strength of the Night Bear Alliance, even if it gathers 5,000 people, it is no match for the Japanese Tribal Camp army, and the Night Bear Alliance can only rely on constantly harassing the Japanese Tribal Camp army in the jungle to force the Japanese Tribal Camp to stop.
Moreover, the Night Bear Alliance also senses the problem of climate change, and the two leaders do not believe that the Sun Tribe camp will continue to entangle.
The moment the army of the tribal camp and the army of the Night Bear Alliance came into contact, the war broke out, and for the first contact, the Japanese tribal camp killed and captured nearly a hundred enemies at the cost of several dead and wounded, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great, this war would not last long, and the final winner would inevitably belong to the Japanese tribal camp.
Distant fishing tribes
Under the leadership of the new leader of the fishing tribe, the fishing tribe gathered 2,000 adult tribesmen to start the first active foreign war of the fishing tribe, and the purpose of the war was naturally the food that the fishing tribe needed.
Before going out to fight, the fishing leader and the top of the fishing tribe agreed on two plans.
The first plan is to surround the target tribe first, not to attack, and require the target tribe to come up with a certain amount of food, if the other party hands over the grain, there is no need to fight, and the army of the fishing tribe comes back with food; If the other side does not hand over the grain, then carry out the second plan and start a war! Destroy the target tribe in order to obtain food.
War will always kill people, and the fishing tribe has always been a peace-loving tribe before, this time for the sake of food and the tribe to continue to survive and have to take the initiative to start a war, even the new leader of the fishing tribe is based on the first plan in his heart, and it is the best choice to get food without starting a war.
Before the fishing tribe army went out, the fishing tribe first sent a number of teams to reconnoiter the tribes around the fishing tribe, and first selected those small tribes with a population of less than 1,000 people.
After the reconnaissance was completed, the target was selected, and under the silent gaze of the clansmen, the army of the fishing tribe set out for the battle.
"Your tribe hands over half of the food, hand over the food, we leave, don't hand over the food, war!"
After surrounding the first target tribe, the Fishing Tribe people make gestures to the target tribe to make the fishing tribe's demands.
"Are we going to hand over the food?" The leader of the target tribe convened the tribe's high-level to discuss the matter, and their tribe's food could not support the autumn harvest, and it was even more difficult to support the autumn harvest if they handed over the food, and if they didn't hand over the food, the war would break out, and the enemy was too strong, and the number of people alone would be more than double the population of their tribe, how to fight?
In the end, the first target tribe of the fishing tribe chose to hand over the food, and the army of the fishing tribe happily returned with not much food for themselves, and it was very happy for them not to start a war, but they took the initiative to forget how the target tribe would survive after handing over the food.
