Chapter 212: Cutting through the mess with a quick knife
Everyone will have their own demands. The shepherds wanted their horses to travel farther away to hunt and herd sheep. The people who came to vote later naturally had a variety of ideas and appeals.
Within a month of Suoyi's neighbors taking refuge in him, the tribes of horse worship that the old man had informed him had come to the place known as Juyingpo in the forest.
When these people arrived, they respectfully looked at the white horse, and then they would ask all kinds of questions and demands.
"Is this really tamed by the forest trails?"
"Is the white horse really tamed?"
"Are we really going to be enemies of the horse hunters?"
"Horseback riding, that's what women in the mountains do, we don't do. To fight, we can use our own force. But we don't fight in vain......"
"After the formation of the Mongol tribe, our tribe must become the leader and accept the offerings of everyone."
"We eat ten sheep a day, and we don't eat anything else."
"We're going to live in the mountains......"
In addition to various demands, although Lin Ji trained Suo Yi and some people around him, he specially used it for reception, telling visitors to pay attention to hygiene, uniform defecation, how to queue up to receive food, no infighting, no entry into the farmland, etc. But the fight is still staged every day, there is defecation everywhere, the phenomenon of running horses in the corn field is still very serious, and the phenomenon of stealing sheep and eating lazy work is even more rampant.
After the arrival of Suoyan's neighbors, the manpower became abundant, and a larger stockade was built on the hill to deal with the horse hunters. Those who came to vote in front were also arranged to work in various places. But with the increase in population, there are more and more demands, and Lin Ji has no intention of dealing with them one by one, so he will leave the people who come behind him to Suo Yi and others to receive them, and stay at the bottom of the mountain to wait for unified reorganization and training.
For more than a month, the corn had grown to a height of fifty centimeters, and the old man had not returned. He's still out there, and the numbers are likely to increase. This is to be expected.
However, Bayang and Huerge have not yet returned.
That's not quite right. If it weren't for the guards brought by Lin Ji from Huaxia and the warriors of Montenegro in the team of Bayang, Lin Ji would have suspected that Bayang had fled back to the Mao tribe.
With his guards and the warriors of Montenegro, the chances of this happening are not very high. Because it is unlikely that Bayang will kill these people at once. These people are all one in a hundred. But if anyone is not dead, they should be able to flee back and report the news.
Now there is no information about Bayang, and there is no one who has not seen him, and I don't know what happened yet. But the impact of the fact that the old man and Bayang did not come back was that these people lacked opinion leaders to communicate with Lin Ji. There is also a shortage of people who can ride horses to teach these people to do so. Because I said before that the people of the tribe of Kuerge would teach everyone to ride horses.
Because of these reasons, the mountain is naturally a mess.
On this day, the big wall on the hillside is about to close. There was another mess down the hill. And this time it seems to be more intense than ever.
Lin Ji walked out of the village with Chen Lidunmu and a few others, and saw Suo Yi rushing up the mountain with a sad face: "It's fighting, it's fighting again." ”
These words don't need to be translated, Lin Ji has already understood.
"And for what this time?" Lin Ji motioned for Chen Li and the others to bring their bows and arrows, and he was also touching the gun on his waist.
"They're going to kill the horses." The translator in Montenegro was also a little sluggish after listening to it, and it took a long time to translate for Lin Ji.
"Reversed them!" Lin Ji's anger suddenly rushed to his head. These people believe in sacred horses and consider themselves horse protectors. This is also the common belief of these people to be gathered here. It is also the reason why the forest trails can provide them with food and drink and mess around under the mountain. And now they're going to kill the horses?
"Assemble! Urgent gathering! Armed Assemble! Lin Ji shouted loudly.
The guards who were busy all over the hillside immediately put down their work, took up their weapons, put on their leather armor, and rode on elephants or horses as fast as they could, and within a few minutes they were at the side of the forest trail. Xiaobai, who was playing with the pony on the hillside, also ran over quickly and grabbed his big knife.
Lin Ji blew another loud whistle, and the white horse under the hillside let out a long whistle and rushed to the hillside. Lin Ji jumped on the horse's back and waved, "Follow me down the mountain!" ”
Suo was stunned, as if it was the first time he had seen Lin Ji in such a posture, and then he shouted himself, and organized the other warriors on the hillside to rush down the mountain.
On the grassland at the foot of the mountain, between the chaotic tents, two groups of people are facing each other like fire and water. There was a big circle of people around.
A group of lesser men, only fifty or sixty men, with a corpse with a broken neck in front of them, and several men crushing a horse. Across from them, hundreds of men with weapons glared at them and warned them from time to time.
Lin Ji rushed down with a few elephants and a few horses, and immediately silenced the people at the scene.
The Montenegrin warriors, who acted as interpreters, translated the various sounds they heard to Lin Ji: "Those desert people learned how to train horses, and as a result, their leader fell off his horse and died. And they shall kill the horse and avenge their chieftain. This horse has been trained by the people of the Tengwang tribe on the other side, and they are basically tamed, so they are unwilling to kill them. ”
After getting along for a long time, the people of Lin Ji and Montenegro can basically understand each other's accents, and there is no need for translation.
Lin Ji rode into the crowd on a white horse, handed a horn to the Black Mountain warrior who translated, and shouted to the desert people: "Let go of that horse!" ”
The warriors of Montenegro roared with a loudspeaker interpreter. The people in the desert were suddenly frightened by the thunderous sound and took a few steps back.
The horse was crushed by several men, and after being frightened away, they took the opportunity to get up and escape.
The desert man was unwilling to come forward to theorize, pointing at the corpse, pointing at the horse, and comparing the action of cutting his throat. After that, the people of the desert were completely chaotic. Some people hold bowls, some people hold knives, and dozens of ducks generally talk non-stop. The warriors of Montenegro were already struggling to communicate with the forest ruins, and at this time they could only translate a few bits and pieces: "They said that they would kill horses and sacrifice them for their leader...... And they don't have enough to eat...... They will also have swords...... Have the same clothes as the people on the mountain......"
"Obey!" Lin Ji raised his hand, "Let the people of the non-desert tribe retreat, otherwise, there will be no forgiveness for killing." The people of the Cangmu tribe immediately abandoned their weapons and surrendered, otherwise they would be killed! ”
The horn translated these words of Lin Ji, and the people around the desert tribe hurriedly retreated, separating the boundary from the people of the desert. But the people of the desert tribe looked fearless. They don't believe they've been making trouble here for so many days, there's no, what will happen now.
Lin Ji squinted his eyes and muttered to himself, "I wanted to do this years ago. I can finally try it today. ”
"Kill!" With a wave of his hand, Lin Ji rode his horse towards the crowd of the desert tribe. The pistol was almost pressed into a person's head before a shot was fired.
Behind him, the guards rushed into the crowd on elephants or horses almost simultaneously. Most people don't use bows, but slash with knives or spears. Some of them are directly hit or trampled on by elephants.
Xiaobai also yelled and picked up the knife and slashed into the crowd.
The people of the desert were almost stunned by the sound of the gunshot in the forest tracks. By the time they came to their senses, half of them had been cut down or trampled to blood.
The rest scattered, and they were chased by elephants or horses that had already raised their speed, or by arrows.
After a dozen more people fell, the remaining few people remembered the words of abandoning their weapons and surrendering, and immediately threw away their weapons and lay on the ground trembling and begging for mercy.
The guards ran back to the field in a circle, and after a few people were separated to protect the forest tracks, the rest of the people went down to the ground, cut off all the heads on the ground, and lined them up neatly. Only those who begged for mercy were left.
The entire rush to the end of the battle is estimated to last less than two minutes. The cavalry plus metal weapons, plus the well-trained combat ability, made the other onlookers around tremble to watch.
Suo Yi only brought people here at this time, and when he saw the blood stains all over the field, he was suddenly a little worried that the aftermath would not be good. The people here are all rebellious, and if one is not handled well, it will cause a conflict of thousands of people, which is not something that the dozen or so horsemen in Lin Ji can deal with.
Lin Ji didn't think about the aftermath at all, he looked around at everyone on the white horse, and said coldly: "I asked you to come here to unite you and deal with those horse hunters who even eat you. I have tamed the white horse, and I can also provide you with the opportunity to ride a horse. Listen to me. Before the men arrived, I told you to wait here and provide you with food. What are you doing? ”
"Infighting? Stealing? Don't listen to orders and defecate everywhere? And because he is not brave enough, he falls off the horse and wants to kill the horse? ”
"You may say in your hearts that they killed the horses, and they have nothing to do with you. However, as people who believe in gods, what is the difference between watching them kill horses and not stopping them, and doing it yourself? ”
Most of them were a little ashamed by Lin Ji's words, and only the people of the Tengwang tribe were a little proud. Because only they stood up and stopped it.
But Lin Ji quickly turned the finger at them: "Don't be complacent! You have stopped the horse from being killed, but you have stopped it because the horse has been tamed by you. If you had to change the horse, would you make a move? ”
Lin Ji also scolded the people of the Tengwang tribe and lowered his head, and then said in a slow tone: "Horses can be killed." But only the horse, the old horse. If anyone dares to kill a strong horse from this day forward, the horse god will never let you go! ”
Lin Ji raised the tone at the end of the sentence, raised his hand, and shot a man in the head who begged for mercy in the desert.
As the gunshots rang out, the head like a rotten watermelon cracked. This admonition is deeply ingrained in the hearts of all people.
A guard went over and cut off the rotten watermelon-like head and lined up for the head.
Hakuba is somewhat immune to gunfire and no longer jumps blindly.
Lin Ji rode around the white horse slowly, and said, "I heard that someone wants to become the leader of the new tribe after it is established?" Who is it? Stand up. ”
No one dared to stand up, but Lin Ji slowly came to the side of the Tengwang tribe.
"I heard it was you." Lin Ji said, "Who is going to become the leader of a new tribe?" I'm going to challenge you. ”
No one dared to look up, but many of them set their eyes on the leader of Fujiwang, who was dressed in the most intact animal skin.
Lin Ji rode sideways and stepped back two steps: "Come out, if you win me, you will be the leader of the new tribe." ”
Faced with a gun that can make people's brains crack with a bang, this leader's reaction is not much better than that of a white horse. He immediately trembled and lay down, and said again and again that he was willing to serve Lin Ji as the leader.
Bang! Lin Ji still shot him. But the shot was only on his knife sharpened from ivory. The ivory shattered, splashing him in the face.
Lin Ji put away his gun and said, "I won." Who else is up for the challenge? ”
No one in the audience dared to respond, and they all fell to the ground, trembling and frightened.
"I declare that from today onwards, the Mongol tribe will be formed, and from today onwards you will be a member of the Mongol tribe, no matter what tribe you used to be and what you believe. The Mongol tribe is part of China, and I, the king, temporarily act as the tribal leader. We believe in dragons and horses, and live on the grasslands and farm. Defend your homeland with your own courage and force! ”
Stepping on the blood stains all over the ground, Lin Ji quickly announced the establishment of the tribe.
Then, he immediately reorganized all the young men under the mountain. Randomly divide them into teams of ten. From the wandering plains, the shepherds were selected to be brave men and become the ten-captain of the team. And let his guards become centurions of the troops. It was later announced that the men would live in a cohort and train to fight.
Subsequently, he unified all the more prestigious elders here and formed the Temporary Elder Corps. It is used for communication, deliberation and supervision.
The first thing this elders, led by Lin Ji, discussed was the distribution of women. In order to avoid disputes with women, Lin Ji uses the principle of voluntariness to carry out one-on-one marriage between men and women.
The members of the elder group quickly agreed to Lin Ji's marriage plan after each of them received a welcome gift from Lin Ji and received him with enough respect. As a result, it only took Lin Ji two days to solve the marriage problem when a small number of people were willing and most of them were randomly married.
After three days, the tents were re-planned and the accommodation was redistributed. Men are trained in platoons, physical fitness, horseback riding, archery, etc., in the morning and evening. Women are involved in other tasks. The new Mongol tribes had a completely different climate.
Bayang only came back after going out for nearly a month and a half. When he returned, he took out two hundred horses, but only a hundred or so were brought back. These people all had sad looks on their faces, and they had clearly experienced something sad.
But when they arrived at the bottom of Juying Slope, they saw the clouds of sheep, rows of camps, jubilant horses, and a team of enthusiastically trained troops, but their faces could not help but show surprise and hope.
"This is our new tribe? We're not going to be attacked by horsehunters here anymore, are we? The kids in the line asked.
Su Erge's face was also full of sadness, but when he saw these pictures, he also seemed to be high-spirited: "I knew that the king would not let us down." Horse hunters, we're going to kill them all. ”
The look on Bayang's face became wrong again.
