Chapter 14: Strategic Layout in Africa
The ground trembled slightly, and a cloud of smoke rose from the direction of the road, and it was clear that a large force was heading for it.
Another tribal force of more than 2,000 people?
What's going on?
The Chinese saw that there were only a few hundred people on their side, and now there were more than 1,000 captives, and the guards of these captives were already under pressure, and there were 2,000 people here, although their own weapons were advanced, but they had to look at more than 1,000 captives and deal with the new 2,000 tribal forces, how could this be good?
Or do you just take it while it's good, leave these more than 1,000 captives, and quickly board the ship and sail into the depths of the sea?
All the Chinese people immediately looked at each other, and finally focused their eyes on Hu Zhen.
"Don't panic! Figure out what's going on first! ”
Hu Zhen saw that although the big leader of the fat pig couldn't understand the language of the Chinese, he also noticed that a large number of armed forces were coming outside, but his face showed a look of surprise, it was obvious that it was not the follow-up support he arranged.
Hu Zhen ordered the tribe captives to be pushed aside, quickly gathered their weapons in the direction of the dock, and at the same time began to set up a cordon.
At this moment, in the smoke and dust raised in the distance, a group of tribal forces with barely visible tails came out, stopped a few kilometers away, and then rushed out of the formation with a small group of cavalry.
Seeing this situation, all the Chinese grabbed the weapons in their hands and prepared to obey Hu Zhen's order to fight again.
But what is unexpected is that when this cavalry team rushed to a distance of about a kilometer, they all stopped, and only sent one knight, raising their empty hands, and came slowly. It doesn't seem to be malicious.
Hu Zhen was also very strange, and said to Jiang Yunfeng: "What is he going to do?" Did you come to surrender? You go and ask him. ”
Jiang Yunfeng responded, and shouted loudly at the rushing knight in his half-baked indigenous language, and the knight also responded loudly, and the two sides exchanged two sentences.
Jiang Yunfeng turned back to Hu Zhen and said, "He said that their big leader, Di Gabu, wants to personally come to thank us for defeating his sworn enemy Longso!" ”
"What a low-priced cloth!"
"It's Degabu."
"I see!"
The Chinese suddenly relaxed, Hu Zhen looked back at the fat leader Long Suo, and saw that he was so nervous that the fat pig muscles in his face twitched, and sure enough, it was his sworn enemy who came.
Hu Zhen nodded and said to Jiang Yunfeng: "You ask him, we have dealt with their sworn enemy, how can their big leader thank us?" ”
The two muttered a few words, and Jiang Yunfeng turned around and said, "He said that their big leader wants to personally meet with our big leader to discuss!" ”
"It's going to be a deal between the two sides, okay, you tell him I can meet with their big leader!"
Hu Zhen is thinking at the moment that if the other party has the value of support, he might as well drop a chess piece in the black Africa in the world's strategic layout, and invest in supporting it to grow up, so as to become a powerful help for himself in the future when he crisscrosses Africa.
Although Hu Zhen is now anxious to return to Asia, Africa is also part of the grand strategy in his heart for the future, if he can play a good game now, he might as well spend a little time to lay a good foundation for Africa's future strategic layout, so he immediately nodded and agreed to meet with Di Gabu.
As a result, Hu Zhen and Di Gabu held a meeting between the leaders of the two sides.
Coming out of the tribal crowd was a sturdy black man, outwardly in his early twenties, dressed in the solemn traditional attire of the tribe, and slowly came to the middle of the two teams by himself.
And Hu Zhen walked over to the middle position, accompanied by Jiang Yunfeng, the translator of the two knives.
Jiang Yunfeng said to Di Gabu: "This is our big leader Hu Zhen!" ”
Di Gabu immediately jumped and knelt again, and then crawled in front of Hu Zhen's leg with a mutter, hugged Hu Zhen's calf, and startled Hu Zhen.
Fortunately, Jiang Yunfeng explained in the translation next to him that this is the etiquette that the Digabu tribe only has for the most distinguished guests.
After the tedious tribal diplomatic protocols, the meeting and negotiation between the two sides immediately got to the point.
Digabu said that he intended to hand over to Hu Zhen all the gold and silver and other wealth he had seized in the Loonso tribe's lair, and Hu Zhen would hand over to them all the prisoners and weapons captured by the Loonso tribe.
When Hu Zhen heard Jiang Yunfeng's translation, he was also very happy, knowing that the person in front of him was worthy of his own investment and support, so he immediately agreed: "Ha, this is a very good deal, okay, you tell him that the deal is done." However, Longso and several murderers of the Chinese must be handed over to us to deal with, and I must avenge the six Chinese compatriots who died! ”
But after Jiang Yunfeng translated, Di Gabu replied that he did not agree to hand over Long Suo to Hu Zhen to deal with, saying that Long Suo was also his father's killer, and he must dispose of Long Suo according to the rituals of their tribe to avenge his father.
Seeing Hu Zhen's embarrassed look, Digabu immediately added that he could pay gold to the six Chinese who died as compensation.
Hu Zhen shook his head and said: "No, I must let people all over the world know that the murderer of the Chinese must be hunted down to the ends of the earth!" ”
When Jiang Yunfeng translated, Di Gabu was stunned, although there were only a few hundred Chinese in front of him, just now the scouts he sent clearly saw how the Chinese miraculously defeated the armed forces of the Longso tribe, and when the scouts reported to him, he also questioned the authenticity of this matter very strongly, but when he came to this place, everything was true. At this moment, in his mind, the hundreds of people Hu Zhen brought with him were like gods, how could he dare to offend the gods in front of him?
Digabu bowed his head and pondered for a while, and made a workaround, saying that the ceremony of their tribe to honor his father would be held here, and then the Chinese would execute Lonso, and finally give Lonso's body to their tribe for disposal.
Hu Zhen listened to it and felt that this compromise was very good, so he agreed to hand over Longsuo to Digabu for a memorial ceremony, and then the Chinese would shoot Longsuo, and finally leave a whole corpse for the Digabu tribe to do anything.
Hearing that Hu Zhen had reasonably agreed to leave a whole body of Long Suo to their tribe, Digabu immediately jumped up with joy and waved his hand to high-five Hu Zhen to indicate that the two sides had reached a deal.
When Lonso handed over the ritual to the Digab tribe to dance and sing and torture Lonso, Digab also faithfully handed over all the gold and silver found in the Lunso tribe.
This only more than 10,000 people of the Longsuo tribe because of the mastery of a few gold mines, the inventory of gold is really a lot, Hu Zhen arranged for people to count, found that there are 230,000 taels, but the silver is only a few hundred taels, it seems that this Longsuo said that his tribe has three large gold mines is really true.
Hu Zhen was very happy, and he couldn't imagine that on this African continent, which was known as poor and white, he would get gold worth 4.6 million taels of silver. Even happier, the great leader of Digab did not cheat, and faithfully handed over all the gold seized by the Longso tribe.
Hu Zhen thought about it for a moment and decided that he would give Degabu all the weapons and bullets captured in the pirate's den.
Di Gabu, who was sweating profusely during the memorial ceremony, didn't expect Hu Zhen to give him an unexpected joy, so he hurriedly ran to Hu Zhen and knelt and sang, and said loudly that he would send Hu Zhen a hundred tribal beauties.
"Tribal beauty? Those black beauties covered in coals, a hundred, which of you want them? Whoever wants it, I'll take it! ”
Hu Zhen couldn't help laughing, and asked left and right, everyone shook their heads and laughed, Hu Zhen had to ask Jiang Yunfeng to quickly translate: "Thank you, Grand Leader Digabu, I don't want black beauties, no one wants them!" ”
But Di Gabu insisted on offering beautiful women, and Hu Zhen couldn't help but smile bitterly, so he had to ask Jiang Yunfeng to translate that his boat was too small to take away these hundred black beauties.
But where is Digab willing to come back.
For a hundred black beauties, the two pushed back and forth for a while, but none of them came to a conclusion.
