Chapter 272: Advantages of the River Tribe
Two hundred kilometers north of the River tribe, the He tribe had just ransacked the He tribe with more than 300 warriors. The www.biquge.info of the pen was only looted and not destroyed, because the people of the He tribe ran away before the people of the He tribe formed an encirclement.
According to the statistics of the River tribe, there may be more than 400 people in the He tribe. In the end, the team of more than 300 people only caught less than 100 old and weak. This is very frustrating for everyone.
In the end, it was the Winter Bear who reminded them that they should not have taken away the meat for the winter, and the crowd reacted and returned to the He tribe's place of residence and got a mountain of meat.
Pickled and smoked fish and meat, washed and dried stems and fruits, and large and small fish, shrimp and meat pieces frozen in the open air, are piled up to make people dizzy. Except for the people of the Ransom Salt Clan and the River Tribe, no one had ever seen so much meat. Winter Bear estimates that there are at least a thousand backs of meat here.
According to previous discussions, the captures and captives were to be in the public domain, and they were to be distributed according to merit after returning. This distribution is basically the same in their own tribes, so there is no objection to this.
There were not many people arrested on this trip, and everyone was worried that it would be difficult to distribute the iron tools before, and some people proposed to move forward and capture more people, but after getting so much meat, everyone didn't want to go anymore. Now everyone is starting to worry about how to get so much meat back.
The people of the River tribe scoffed at the crowd's behavior of not moving their legs around the meat. With so much meat, if everyone eats and moves it, who can take how much? Is it possible to hide it on the spot?
Wang Jiao and Fishtail didn't bother to look at these things, but they were very interested in why the people of the He tribe fled. Because they knew that this question would definitely be asked by Elder Chuan.
Among the captives, the leaders of the Ariga tribe, Wang Jiao and Yuwei captured them in the way of separate questioning by Wang Chuanjiao, and questioned them separately.
"Why are you running away?" Fishtail is in a cave and asks a leader of the He tribe.
"......," the man was silent.
Fishtail pulled out a dagger: "Say it or not?" ”
"......" the man still glared.
The fishtail stabbed the person to the ground with a knife, and after looking at it for a while, he realized that something was wrong: "Did I tie his mouth too?" ”
Fishtail's men nodded silently. It's really good to be able to tie a rope, but it's actually not good to be too good at tying a rope.
Wang Jiao was in another cave and asked another leader of the He tribe: "Do you know the remnant ear?" ”
The remnant ear is a person from the He tribe who was caught by Wang Chuan and the River tribe. Now he's a ten-cubin.
The leader nodded, still wary.
Wang Jiao said: "I am from the River tribe. They were framed by the Vulcan tribe last year, and now they have joined our River tribe. He said that the people on your side may not eat enough meat to survive the winter, so let's come and see if we can help you. I also looked at it just now, and you don't have enough meat to eat one meal a day. When it's not snowing, you have to go out hunting or gathering to not go hungry. I'm wondering, why did you run away when you saw us? ”
The leader said: "The Vulcan tribe was destroyed by your river tribe, and we were afraid that you would also destroy us, so we ran away." Originally, we Wu didn't want us to run, but when he came over, he told us that you had gold tools, and he also showed us his gold tools. We knew we couldn't beat us, so we ran away. Our leader and remnant ears were really framed by the Vulcan tribe? ”
Before the large army came, he first persuaded him to surrender in order to fulfill his morality. Later, I led everyone to come over to besiege it, and it seems that the loophole is here.
Wang Jiao nodded and said, "Your leader is dead, you will know these when you arrive at the River Tribe, and they will tell you about them." Alas, I want to invite you to the River Tribe for the winter, you will run away, how are you going to live in the ice and snow? ”
The leader said, "If you are good for us, let us go." You can take our meat. As long as we dare to go east and not be swallowed by the mud demons in Zeguo, how much food do we need? If you don't have meat for the winter, you can go there and get it. I'm afraid you won't be able to get it back. ”
Wang Jiao flipped out the map: "Can you tell me about the situation to the east of here?" The remnants said that he had been to the forest a lot, and had not been there much. ”
After the fishtail asked for a long time, Wang Jiao was still working in full swing, after all, no matter how much the dead man asked, he would not say anything.
He and Winter Bear came over with a few leaders to discuss the next itinerary with the Ten Commanders of the River Tribe. Although Wang Jiao and Fishtail did not have any positions as leaders in this temporary team, their status as representatives of the River tribe made others dare not despise their opinions.
Now the result of the discussion is this: after this trip, although the people have not caught much, they have gained a lot, and they can go back. It's just that the meat can't be left here. More than 300 people carried 1,000 carcasses of meat and could not be carried at one time, so they planned to leave some people here to guard, and the others would carry some of them back first, and then call others to come and carry them together.
Fishtail said: "Who wants to stay?" If the He tribe returns, won't the people left behind wait for death? ”
Both the two winter bears don't look good on their faces. What they wanted was for the people of the River Tribe to stay. The people of the River tribe are not uncommon to eat these meats, and they are highly powerful, so it is most appropriate to stay. Now that it's broken by the fishtail, it's hard for them to speak.
Wang Jiao said: "In terms of transporting things, the Ransom Salt Clan has a very good way, this time it's just a thousand-backed meat, Elder Winter Bear can't have no way, right?" ”
Wang Jiao was born in the Ransom Salt Clan, and what he did was the work of transporting, so he was naturally familiar with the method of the Ransom Salt Clan's use of sleds to haul them in winter. In addition to dragging people, this thing can actually pull a lot of goods.
Winter Bear explained, "It's different here. They all rely on the frozen river after the snow. How is it feasible to go back here with high mountains and dense forests? And for a while, we had a hard time getting what to haul. ”
Wang Jiao said: "Hauling things, there is something called a sled in the River tribe, which is easy to drag away." I'm afraid it's not okay to have more, but it's still okay for one person to drag three or five things. As for the way back, if you follow me, there will be no problem at all. ”
Wang Jiao opened the map, pointed to the lines on the map and said: "We can go east for a day, there is a river here that can go south, although it is against the current, but now the river is frozen, and there is no problem at all with haulage." We could walk along the river for three or four days, and when we got here, we only had to climb a hill to get to the opposite stream. Then we went down the stream, all the way to our tribe and even to the Taijiang River. It may take us three or five days longer than when we came, but we don't have to leave anyone here, and we don't have to ask people to walk again. ”
The map with intersecting lines is incomprehensible to them. Wang Jiao's words disrupted their original plan, and they still hesitated a little and said, "It's no problem to walk like this for a few more days." Just can you really walk back? ”
Fishtail listened impatiently, patted his chest and said: "This is our divine dragon instruction, the method of drawing on the ground handed down by Elder Chuan, as long as the mountains and rivers are drawn, it will not be wrong." Just follow us. ”
Everyone listened to what Fishtail said and went out with the warriors of the River tribe to prepare for the sleigh and plow. I thought that the River tribe was really extraordinary, and after only coming here once, I could find a new way back.
When everyone left, Fishtail asked Wang Jiao, "You haven't been here, where did this map come from?" ”
Wang Jiao said, "I just asked from the captive." If you want to confirm again, ask your captive. How's that for you? ”
Fishtail said embarrassedly: "I have a straight temperament and killed that man." ”
