In June, the morning dawned early, but the people in the cities called "Xu" in the Dongyi tribes rose earlier than the sun rose, and they were awakened by the violent noise and confusion. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Many years ago, they lived by the sea, believed that the god of the sea made a living from fishing, and thought that they were the first to see the sun, so they had such a clan, until a huge tsunami destroyed the city and destroyed their faith, and they migrated westward and finally merged into the system of the Dongyi tribes.

The old people in the distant city of memory like to spread the word of mouth, so a tsunami turns into a huge catastrophe of lightning and thunder. These legends are deeply rooted in their memories, and the scene in the early hours of the morning seems to bring the people of the city back to the havoc that exists and legends.

Two days earlier they had heard from some of the people who had fled here that some people from the west had come here, and that they had a terrible weapon that could wield thunder and lightning, and could easily destroy a village.

These words were taken as babble, and no one believed it, not even those from the west, who would come here. Isn't the Dome attacking and plundering their land? Axu City also sent out a lot of people to follow, how could it be that those people ran here without guarding their own city?

But the descriptions of those who fled were vivid, and some of those who had followed the campaign were sure that it was indeed the group of people on the west side, for they were dressed in a bun and sounded the same, but they were carrying banners that they had never seen before.

In this case, the people of the city decided to be cautious and sent men to guard the city at night. I heard that there weren't many of them, and I didn't expect them to attack the city, but that's what happened.

When the leaders of the city came to the walls, the group that had been harassing them by night had receded, but the traces were still there.

A few feathered arrows fell in the city, leaving many black marks on the walls, proving that there had been an explosion there.

There were two flags planted on the land outside the city, flags that had never been seen before, and the people outside the city had long since disappeared.

There was a round black thing left on the city wall, and the defenders of the city immediately fled far away when they saw it, and did not dare to approach it at all. The amazing thunder and lightning they experienced at night was emitted by this thing, and it didn't explode.

The leader looked at it from a distance, and couldn't make out what it was, it looked like a stone, but it had never seen it.

Believing in witch worship, they called the priest, who said that it contained a terrible monster from the sea, because thunder and lightning were generated from the sea.

The water, of course, was afraid of fire, so the priest decided to burn it with fire, and then the priest died.

The whole group, including the chief, fled backwards in fright, and the whole city was completely thrown into disarray, and before noon the group hurried out of the city and ran towards the far west.

Carrying the banners left behind by the enemy, and with the terrible sights they had seen with their own eyes, they wanted to tell the Firmament, who was out on the outing, that the leaders of the alliance they trusted, and that the people of the tribes from the west had attacked this side.

…………

Without a horse and running on only two legs, the news didn't reach Qiongxi's ears so quickly, but in fact, he wouldn't be afraid when it reached Qiongxi, because he broke through Windy City by digging tunnels.

After conquering Windy City, he received the same cheers of victory as before, and as many slaves as before.

But after the breakthrough, he also obtained many things that he had never seen before, such as what the people here called iron, which looked like copper but was ugly in color; For example, a large barrel of something called gunpowder, this thing caused a lot of threats to him when defending the city, and it scared some clansmen very much, otherwise it would have been breached a long time ago.

A lot of strange things pointed to a city he had never heard of, called Xia, including the fields that looked to be growing well outside.

This made him feel very uneasy, especially after some of the surrendered people told all kinds of stories about Xia Cheng, which made Qiongxi even more furious.

Therefore, Qiongxi was very concerned about everything related to Xia City, and when he knew that a new city had been built in this city three or five hundred miles away, he suddenly felt an impulse in his heart.

This city called Xia may completely surpass the western group in a dozen years, and they must be nipped in the bud. Since Xia Cheng is far to the northwest, there are only a lot of slaves in the city here, and they are about to take this opportunity to take the city.

If the person named Ji Xia can surrender, it would be best if he could even divide a part of the city for them to live in, and even treat the tribes of Xia City preferentially not as slaves like the rest of the captured people.

If he can't surrender, he must be killed, especially after he holds the iron tools in his hand and sees the surrendered people demonstrate their use.

This expedition was because he got news from some cities in the north, which had been passed on from the cities of the Great River Tribes, saying that Suyue would attack them, and telling Qiongxi that this was an opportunity.

And for Qiongxi, this is the best time for him to convince the various clans, and he will not miss it. He had heard of Su Yue for a long time, and his father had dealt with this leader, but he didn't pay attention to it at all.

In his opinion, Suyue will not bring any changes to the ethnic groups in the west, even if the Huasu Alliance did not capture Dongyi, it is nothing more than on the offensive, and a separate Dahe tribe.

But after conquering Windy City, Firmament suddenly found a terrifying hidden opponent. This opponent is unknown, and he has never heard of it. But no matter how strong the black bear is, it will not break the trees that are surrounded by one person, and some silent moths can make the trees that have stood for thousands of years decay and break, and by the time someone notices it, it will be too late.

Qiongxi looted all the iron farming tools and war horses and chariots in Windy City, and let people identify a few Xia Cheng people who stayed in Windy City, and gave them great favor, and did not ask them, but just wanted to hear them talk about Xia Cheng.

The clansmen had never seen the leader look like this, and they had listened to the few Xia Cheng people who had been arrested talk about meaningless things for two days, from planting to the right to the city to eating and drinking.

These seemingly meaningless things made their convincing and awe-inspiring leaders frown, because these captured Xia Cheng people were very clear-headed, far better than ordinary clansmen.

Qiongxi felt that such a person could lead at least a hundred people in his own city, but in Xia Cheng, he was just an ordinary countryman, which was terrifying.

Even when questioning, those Xia Cheng people even found an opportunity to say to Qiongxi: "You'd better be nice to us, or let us go, because you can't beat us." ”

The Dome knows the language of the Great River, because his heart made him cast his eyes on this side at a very young age.

This was the first time he had seen the captive man speak like this, and he laughed angrily, and asked, "It seems that you are very convinced of your leader, but you have not beaten him, how do you know that I can't beat him?" ”

The captured Xia Cheng people thought about it for a moment, pointed to the iron tool in front of Qiongxi and said, "Do you see these things?" You're doomed. ”

"Because we have thirty people who can farm the land, we can raise a soldier who does not need any special training; And you may need a hundred or more to raise one. Maybe you can defeat us once in the battle, but you will definitely lose in ten years, and Ji Xia is still young, and ten years later you will be in the prime of life. ”

"The hearts of our people in Xia City are very small, just like bone needles, if you kill us, you will definitely be killed when you surrender in the future. If you let us go, I can say something nice when you surrender, and Ji Xia will let you go. ”

Qiongxi was startled when she heard this, not that she was afraid of being killed or anything like that.

He was very sure that this captured man was just a very young man, and he couldn't even lead dozens of people in Xia City, but he had only studied in some academy for a few years, but so many people in his own clan were afraid that they couldn't find dozens of people who could say these words.

If everyone in Xia City is like this, it would be terrible, so terrible that such people can only be ordinary soldiers, then what are those people who command the troops and their leaders?

"Are these words in mind?"

"Of course not, it was the chief who told us."

Qiongxi breathed a rare sigh of relief, her heart was beating extremely fast in the moment just now, which had not appeared again since the day of the decisive victory with her brother.

"Do you believe it?"

"Of course, that's what Ji Xia said."

"Are there many who believe?"

"Of course, that's what Ji Xia said."

"Ji Xia, did everyone tell it?"

"Of course not. Ji Xia told the gentleman in the school, my husband told me, and I told the people who were with me. ”

Qiongxi quietly clenched her fists with her hands behind her back, and from these words, she finally understood why these Xia Cheng people were sober-minded, it was because of that damn school that everyone could become a smart person, and the knowledge of the essence of intelligence before that was passed down by word of mouth was kept secret.

Respect for the leader was not a surprise to him, and many people in his own tribe also respected him like the sky, but did all the people in the tribe who were so sober-minded respect him so much? Obviously not, the people in their own race who are so sober-minded are all high-ranking and respected, where will they respect themselves so sincerely?

And about the words of victory and defeat, although Qiongxi had disdain on his face, his eyes couldn't help but look at those iron tools, reminiscing about the ditches he saw outside.

Disdain is because he needs disdain, not because the words themselves can make him disdainful.

He knew that what he said was true, and if he really allowed oxen ploughing and these strange farming methods to spread among the great rivers, ten years ...... Don't say ten years, but I'm afraid that in six or seven years, how can my own race be able to resist?

He was not afraid of the black gunpowder, nor the horses that could be ridden at a gallop, just like the curved bow he invented, which could change a battle, but not a race.

On the contrary, he was genuinely frightened by these strange farm tools, and even more curious about the young man he had never met, who was said to be about his age.

That being said, it didn't make Qiongxi fall into despair, at least he learned this farming method himself, even if he didn't have iron tools, he had a lot of cattle himself. Many of these captured slaves knew this way of farming, and it was not impossible to learn them themselves.

Moreover, if you want to deal with a person, you don't necessarily have to use a military formation.

He thought about it for two days, and sorted out what was going on in Xia Cheng from the stories told by each person, and also sorted out the current situation of the Great River Tribes.

Two days later, Dome found a few Windy City people who had surrendered.

"I will let you go, but I will leave your loved ones behind. You need to pass on a message to the leader of Suyue: Yucheng is too close to Sucheng, where will Sucheng be in ten years? Xia Cheng is in the northwest, far away from our east. ”

A few people pondered these strange words, and after making sure that they remembered, Qiongxi generously let these people go.

Then a group of captives were brought together and announced in public: "We have come against you not because of your enmity against each other, but because I dreamed of the soul of my dead father, and of a strange scene." The sun does not rise in the east, but in the far northwest, and when it rises to its highest, the great rivers will dry up, all things will be scorched, and my people will perish like you. I'm going to find this man and kill him. If I can't find it, I'll keep attacking west until I find this man! ”

The soul is a terrible and honorable thing in this age, and no one lies about the souls of their deceased relatives - certainly those who like to lie about their souls.

These words are very soulful, weird and terrifying, and at the same time make people vaguely feel something.

Dome gave the group of captives some food and drove them away, saying nothing else.

Then he found the people of his tribe who were proficient in the languages of the Great River, and the two brothers he trusted the most, and asked him to go to the two people secretly with his own message.

"Tell the leader of Suyue that if I kill Ji Xia, I will be defeated and give up the six cities near your side, and the prestige of the leader of Suyue will be the same as that of Hua back then. Tell him that the dog is used to kill and eat meat, and when the dog has already devoured the owner, it will be too late to kill it. ”

"Tell the leader of Su Yue again, without everything in Xia City, Su Yue is still Su Yue. But when everything in Xia City spread on both sides of the river, Su Yue was just Su Yue. ”

This is the first person. The second person wants to see the other.

"Find someone to take you to Yucheng and find Ji Xia. Tell him that I want iron tools, I want the cultivation methods of Xia Cheng, and even the students of Xia Cheng and more than 100 Terrans. ”

"If he wishes, let him bring what I want to our city. Once it arrives, let him lead people on the expedition, and I will feign defeat, and I will take the initiative to give him half of the slaves, so that the Great River tribes will think that it is his war exploits. Even if he doesn't provide these things to the cities of the Great River, I will destroy Aushiro within three years. ”

"In three years, isn't Ji Xia's prestige enough to dominate the Great River Tribes? When the time comes, take Sucheng as the boundary, and the west will return to Xiacheng, and I will never cross it, because I can't control what I want, and he will understand what I mean. ”

The clan brother shook his head and said, "Will he believe it?" ”

"If he's not stupid, he'll believe it."

"So what do we do next?"

"Continue west, capture a few cities before Inadake returns, the captured gunpowder can blow up the city walls, we won't prepare it anyway, this time we will run out. A weapon can't change anything, I'm more afraid of those oxen and iron tools and those people in Xia City. ”

Qiongxi rubbed her eyes, showing a tired look for the first time. (To be continued.) )
