This time to the south, in addition to the people of the deer, there were more than a dozen other tribes participating. These tribes were driven by the interests of harvesting mushrooms and salt, and sent six or seven thousand people.

The total number of tribes involved in these people is not below the number of deer.

It was the people who followed the deer who surrendered, and these people were more fearless in the prisoner camp than the people of the deer, and some people once wanted to negotiate with Lin Ji. But naturally, Lin Ji caught these people who escaped and went to mining.

The forest trail now has to digest the people of the deer and these captives, and it will be more difficult to have another large-scale war. But for these tribes, it is impossible not to pursue them.

At the very least, Chaolin City's inviolable reputation should be beaten to the north, so that more tribes will know that they are afraid, so that they will not dare to attack them again.

The first battle of this operation was the largest number of Quito.

They were two tribes with Kuifu, who had been in contact with the forest trails before. In fact, Kuifu is a tribe that has split off from Kuituo, and lives in the southwest of the territory of the deer, near the mountains and swamps.

Because the two tribes come from the same origin, and the deer is said to have an old relationship with their predecessor tribe, they are actually not friendly to the deer.

When Cai Fu was leading the deer and befriending the surrounding tribes, he once wanted to befriend Kui Fu, so he united with Kui Tuo and divided Kui Fu.

Kuituo and the deer are therefore friendly, because there are a lot of flat land in the mountains where Kuituo is located, and the vegetation is also flourishing, which is very convenient for the domestication of bighorn deer, and the collection of antlers has sent many bighorn deer to Kuituo for domestication.

When the deer sent out the army, Kuituo not only sent most of the bighorn deer that helped to keep them in captivity, but also sent more than 1,000 warriors.

The population of Quitol itself is seven or eight thousand, scattered in several adjacent valleys.

Po Tu led the men into Kuituo's territory from three directions, rushing towards their residence at the appointed time almost simultaneously, and began to kill mercilessly.

The elephants easily tore through their walls of rocks and rotten wood, and the elephants easily broke through their thatched huts and knocked people out of them.

The women and children screamed and ran into the distance, and a few men rode up to the deer, shouting to meet them, and then they were quickly shot in pools of blood.

Breaking through in three directions at the same time, they soon rushed into one of their most central valleys.

After the last stockade was breached, the people of Kuituo had lost their fighting spirit and blindly knew to flee for their lives.

Po Tu let people chase for a while, arrested more than 2,000 people, and watched many people run out of the mountain.

"Commander, can we chase after us?" Some of his subordinates rose up to kill, looking at the people in the distance with eyes like wolves.

"Let them go." Po Tu watched them go away, but just raised a loudspeaker at them: "We are from Chaolin City by the Gou Lake, and the deer has been destroyed by us." Those who offend me in the forest, although they are far away, will be punished! ”

Those who fled fled as fast as they could, and they did not know whether they heard or not. But Po Tu didn't care. He knew that there must be a lot of people hiding in the surrounding grass and trees who hadn't fled yet. Naturally, they could hear these words, and they would spread them.

Collect the team and go back, clean up the battlefield, and treat the wounded. After resting for two days, Po Tu left some people here to guard the prisoners, and built a new stockade here, opened up farmland, and continued the journey with his own people.

The terrain here is good, the mountains and rivers are also very cool, and he plans to report the forest traces after returning and build an elephant farm here. He also gave it a new name, Qinglu Valley.

After destroying Kuituo, Po Tu turned to the east without hurrying, drawing a map of the surrounding area while punishing and cleaning up the tribes that had cooperated with the deer.

In front of thousands of elephant soldiers, the attack was overwhelming. When the smaller tribes heard the news, they didn't even dare to flee without a trace.

After dispersing the tribes that had wiped out the co-deer, and leaving men at two key locations in the east, Po Tu returned to Qinglu Valley with some of his captives.

When he returned to Qinglu Valley, he found that many people had come to the north of the valley.

The leader who stayed behind reported: "It's been a few days since we came, and there weren't many people at first, but when they saw us riding elephants, they increased a lot. But those people weren't enough for us to charge. I saw that they didn't get too close, so I ignored them. ”

"Who's coming? What do you want to do? Coming to a hillside, Po Tu looked over there and asked.

"Someone came and said that it was a man named Bayang, but those people couldn't even speak clearly, so I kicked them out."

Po Tu's eyes were cold, and he said sharply: "It seems that you, centurion, don't want to do it!" ”

Bayang, the invincible hero leader of the north, should be the largest tribal leader north of this side, and may even be the biggest leader on this earth at the moment.

When such a person arrived, he was actually left out by this fool and kicked out the people he sent?

Po Tu felt that it was a big mistake for him to leave this person here, if the other party had any plans, he might have been crossed by someone at this time and rushed to the hinterland behind.

Po Tu hurriedly returned to the newly built stockade, selected people from the captives who were more proficient in both languages, and then asked people to carry them and send them to the other side with gifts.

The other party has been waiting here openly for a few days, and the people who come are only like enough to protect themselves, obviously there is not much malice.

And Po Tu also knew that although Lin Ji didn't pay much attention to this invincible leader of "raising starlings", he dealt with the tribes of Kuituo and asked them to spread the news, just to show his muscles to this leader, hoping to keep his distance from the other party.

Po Tu didn't want to offend the other party first without too much malice.

The gifts were sugar, wine, and dry food such as flour and bread brought by the army, and soon after they were delivered, Po Tu arranged the camping while waiting for a response from there.

Half a day later, the messenger returned, and brought with him a group of people who had come from the opposite side.

Po Tu greeted him outside the stockade, and saw that the leader was wearing an exaggerated high crown full of peacock tails on his head, and guessed that the main owner was coming.

This person is slightly chubby, and if he removes the high crown, he should not be tall. His shirtless upper body consisted only of a necklace made of various animal teeth and stone, and a slightly bulging belly showed that he was never short of food.

Po Tu glanced over at the messenger, received an affirmative answer, and hugged his fist from afar.

There were not many people on the other side, obviously there was no intention of entering the village, and the man wearing the high crown stopped far away and asked in a very authentic deer dialect: "You are not tiger barbarians?" ”

Po Tu led them to the shade of a tree to the side and said, "We are from Chaolin City, and there are tiger barbarian people. ”

"And your grudge against the deer?"

"Not anymore. The deer is willing to join us, and the territory is also at our disposal. ”

"Oh?" Bayang was puzzled, and a group of escorts behind him also showed puzzled looks: "Then why did you come to attack Kuituo?" ”

Po Tu said: "We fought a big battle with the tribes such as the deer outside the city of Chaolin, they were defeated, and the deer was willing to join us, so there is no grudge." But these tribes such as Quito are unwilling to join us, so we have to avenge our comrades who were killed and wounded by them. I enlighten my son...... No one under the future king can be violated. This cannot be changed at any time. ”

Po Tu said this sentence loudly. One of the purposes of the founding of the country was to keep the people of the country away from the war, so this kind of declaration was very strong. Only by not being afraid of war can we have a greater chance of avoiding war.

Po Tu's words made the faces of the people opposite look surprised, and he didn't answer for a while.

Po Tu took the opportunity to ask: "...... you are here?"

As he spoke, Po Tu's eyes looked at Bayang and his entourage, and if he could see any trace on anyone's face that these people were trying to avenge the deer or Kuituo, he would immediately order them all to be killed.

Because he found that this was an excellent opportunity to kill Bayang, there were few people on the other side, and he didn't seem to know much about the weapons on his side.

Po Tu believed that after killing this roasted sun, it would be difficult for their tribe to elect a leader who was recognized by everyone. It is certainly not as easy to face a large unified tribe as it is to face a scattered tribe.

However, Po Tu also kept his senses, knowing that the other party's posture was obviously not malicious, so he tried to observe.

The faces of the people in Bayang were thoughtful, but they didn't show any doubt.

When Bayang heard Po Tu's question, he replied: "These tribes originally said that they wanted to join my Mao tribe, but now they have been slaughtered by you, so they came to our tribe and asked me to seek revenge from you." But they hadn't gone through our sacrifice yet, and they hadn't offered sacrifices to our god Mao, so we didn't agree. However, you have killed too many people, like the cold of winter, which is not good, and I hope you will stop killing people. ”

The tribal alliance of the leader of the Bayang is called the Mao tribe. Enshrine the god Mao, who has more legends and divine powers. They like spring and summer, not autumn and winter. Therefore, the cold kills are used as a metaphor for the slaughter of the slaughter.

In terms of interests, these tribes are all likely to join this Mao tribe, and they don't want to continue to kill and kill all the tribes here.

Lin Ji's strangulation plan for Po Tu was to go from Kuituo to the east, occupying an important geographical location, and to the west was to depend on the situation. Because of this kind of conquest, there is actually not much benefit to the current Chaolin City. Even if it is to capture slaves, this is enough to digest for a while. Any more, the food pressure will increase a lot.

After being said by Bayang like this, Po Tu can stop moving. But it was only stopped by such a mediation, which was obviously not good for the reputation of Chaolin City.

Po Tu said: "We have also heard the legend of the leader of Bayang in Chaolin City, and we, including our future king, have more respect for you......

Po Tu said some words that Lin Ji taught, and the marginal praise made it almost impossible for Bayang and the entourage on the opposite side to find the north. In this era, there is really no one who can say such clever things about touting.

After touting for a long time, Po Tu said: "I heard that the leader of Bayang is the fairest, and if you can speak for them today, we can't help but accept your opinion." However, if they innocently hurt our people first, if they let it go, the people of Chaolin City will definitely be angry in their hearts. So, I want the leaders of Bayang to help us call the shots, let them pay twenty warriors per tribe to us, and we won't attack them, what do you think? ”

This kind of statement, or even the leader of Bayang has not heard much, so he also discussed it with the entourage behind him. After that, I roughly understood the meaning of Po Tu, so I bargained with Po Tu.

After some discussion between the two sides, Bayang promised to stop attacking westward as long as Po Tu stopped. He'll have the tribes raise three hundred men to send here. But in exchange, he needs to pick some people from the Quito tribe to go back.

Po Tu guessed that the people that Bayang wanted to pick away should be those who would domesticate the bighorn deer, he didn't dare to make the decision on this matter, and said to Bayang that he would think about it for a few days, and at the same time immediately sent someone to report the forest traces.

After finishing business, the two sides became casual.

Po Tu asked people to bring out the wine, set up a banquet under the shade of the tree, and feasted on the party of Bayang.

During the feast, each side exchanged legends and stories of their tribes, and each told about its own customs and heroic deeds.

After Bayang drank some wine, his spirit relaxed, and he began to hold Po Tu and spit bitter water: "You know what? I've been fascinating the deer for a long time. Their sacred deer is fast enough, and it only takes a few days to travel back and forth to our Mao tribe here. There are countless god emperors of my Mao tribe, and there is only one such god ......"

"She said that as long as we destroy the barbarians, they can follow me, and even die for me. I'm thinking too much. ”

"The barbarians kill these beasts every year for food, and they are too powerful, and I am afraid that the death and injury will be too serious. And she, who is not lightly ill, may not be able to die for me. I hesitated. ”

"Because of this, my big bosses are secretly laughing at me. Say I'm not heroic enough. ”

"I'm not brave enough, I'm too many warriors who are afraid of death, and those women and children have no one to shelter. They only know that my mother is not inferior to a man, but they do not know how many wounds, how much hunger, how much pain my mother endured in order to defeat those strange beasts, and I don't want the women of my tribe to be like my mother. ”

"I'm still training my warriors, and I want to attack the Tiger Barbarians later. I didn't expect you to become so strong. And, it's too fast. ”

"But I am heroic, I am the most heroic. I haven't ridden my hair, but if you can ride, I can ride too. ”

After making his heroic declaration, the drunken leader of Bayang shook off the slaughter and rushed towards an elephant not far away.

These elephants have been domesticated for a short time, and they have not yet reached the point where they can stand still without orders and be tossed around. These images are now confessing to the Lord. Living people will be wary when they are approaching, and if you want to ride them, you must at least familiarize them with them for a long time.

As soon as the leader of the roasted sun rushed over, the elephant turned the tusks around. Although he did not attack, he was very defensive.

Although the leader of the roasted sun is slightly fat, he is extraordinary in skill and has excellent courage. Ignoring the danger of being punctured by the ivory, he grabbed the ivory in a flash and kicked it off the elephant's head and onto the elephant's back.

Then, the elephant was startled and began to run wildly. The leader of Bayang was stunned and clung to the elephant's back for two hours, and when the elephant was completely exhausted, he came down with pride.

"This drunken ......," Po Tu sighed, and at the same time asked people to quickly pass a newly written letter to Lin Ji. What was written in the letter were those drunken words of the leader of Bayang.

Two days later, Lin Ji replied: someone gave him, if he was interested, he could invite him to come to Chaolin as a guest.
