Chapter 40: The War Caused by the Stone

At present, the passage between Huoshen Village and Xishan Village has not yet been linked, so the wood is still the inventory of the original Lushi tribe, although the quality is good, but the bow blade is still more than hard but not strong and elastic. Long Qiupeng, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, repeatedly selected, but did not see a particularly suitable wood.

He sighed, and Xi understood what he meant, and said, "I will ask Xiong to bring raw materials from Xishan Village, where there should still be some wood that is particularly suitable for bow-making." ”

"If it's a stream, then please." Although Long Qiupeng was a little disappointed, but fortunately there was a stream, and he saved his own big things now.

Xi did things, Long Qiupeng was relieved, so the timber matter was handed over to Xi, and he was ready to leave. Long Qiupeng felt that there was nothing to do if he stayed here, and secondly, he also felt that he would give the stream some time to rest, after the Vulcan Village was completed, everyone was busy, and after a few days of not seeing each other, Long Qiupeng could see that the stream was a little haggard.

As soon as the matter here came to an eyebrow, Long Qiupeng originally planned to see if it was time for lunch, but he was stopped by Xiong's people halfway, saying that someone had spoken.

Long Qiupeng didn't care about eating, so he hurried to the conference hall.

Entering the chamber, he found three captives, one of whom was kneeling. Long Qiupeng walked past the man, walked to his "throne" and sat down.

The clansmen saluted him one after another, and he glanced at the bear, meaning that these were all omitted, and he went straight to the point.

Xiong took Long Qiupeng's order, kicked the man, and yelled at the man: "Say! ”

The man timidly glanced up at Long Qiupeng, who sat there with a majestic face, making people unable to guess their mood. That person may have wanted to ask Long Qiupeng for a guarantee, but Long Qiupeng knew that for this kind of person, he could not make any concessions before the negotiations began, and at this time, whoever showed his eagerness first would lose.

Sure enough, the man confronted Long Qiupeng for a moment in a non-violent and non-cooperative way, and was soon defeated by Xiong's intimidation and Long Qiupeng's calm.

He told the ins and outs of the front and back.

As Long Qiupeng guessed, these people were professional "spies" from the Qiutu tribe, but at that time, the type of spies was still very low-level, at best, they were ambushing around the tribe, and obtained some marginal information about the tribe through various means. Kazuka's Exploration Squad is, in essence, the same organization.

But unlike the guerrilla exploration team, these people were already stationed here long before Dragon Ball came to the Furnace Clan. Therefore, when Long Qiupeng caught them, they had already made a grass nest in the grass for hiding and hiding, if it weren't for the unsuitable technology and soil quality, maybe they would have been able to fight an underground battle with the Long tribe a long time ago.

"Since when?" Long Qiupeng asked.

The man replied tremblingly, "When the Furnace tribe asks for a trade......

The time when the Hill tribe discovered the Furnace tribe was originally earlier than the time when the Furnace tribe discovered the Hill tribe. However, the Qiutu tribe did not rush to contact the other party after discovering the Lutu tribe, the reason is very simple, the two tribes discovered the same bronze mine almost at the same time, but the location of the Lutu tribe is much closer and more convenient than the Qiutu tribe.

Previously, the Qiutu tribe, as a predominantly agricultural tribe, was technologically advanced, but its military strength was weak, and like the tribes of the previous Creek, it was the target of attacks by other tribes around it. After a few generations, the hill tribes learned to hide themselves on one side and to dig up others on the other.

The Hillland Tribe is looking for new bronze ore while quietly digging for bronze ore from the other side. The bronze mining area is far away from the tribe, no matter how shrewd Yan Yan is, he will not often go to patrol, and those who work at the bottom do not have such a high IQ to find out that there are actually other people in their mining area.

In the beginning, the Hillland tribes also regarded stealing ore from other tribes as a matter of rejoicing, but as the strength of the Hillland tribes continued to rise, the military pressure increased, and they were no longer satisfied with the amount of ore they secretly mined. They needed more ore, and it was at that time that they were already planning to annex the Furnace Clan.

In that person's account, it not only confirms Long Qiupeng's speculation about the origin of these people, but also confirms Long Qiupeng's inference about the unequal transaction.

In that transaction, the Mounds tribe brought not only two cartloads of grain and grass seeds, but also the three people who came to change the guard. And they felt that what they had taken away was not only half of the bronze weapons of the Furnace Clan, but also the military armament that this tribe relied on for survival.

And the purpose of all this is to find the right moment. Completely incorporate the Furnace tribe into their territory, or rather, to bring those turquoise stones into their own jurisdiction.

And all of this was planned by the boy who came to trade that day, and that boy was one of the candidates for the head of the tribe: Naki.

The others present were a little dumbfounded, but Long Qiupeng smiled, all this was in his guesses and control, now, only one last thing needed to be confirmed, he smiled and asked the last and most critical question: "What's going on with that abandoned mine near your tribe?" ”

I don't know if it's because I didn't expect Long Qiupeng to suddenly ask this question, or I didn't expect Long Qiupeng to know that there was a mine near their tribe, the man replied after a pause: "I don't know the specifics, it seems that it was a copper mine at first, but later it was found that it was not, so it was abandoned." However, Nagi-sama still collected some stones and returned them to the tribe to see if they were useful. ”

Hearing this, Long Qiupeng's heart still chuckled. Hehe, Naki wants the cyan stone, but he is afraid that one day they will discover the secret of the red stone, it turns out that in such a calm, a war caused by the stone has been brewing for a long time, and now the prologue has begun.

Long Qiupeng waved his hand and asked them to take the spies of the mound down and lock them up first. After the man was gone, he asked the bear, "How often do they need to go back?" ”

Xiong replied: "If there is no situation, there will be a rotation every 20 days, and then they will be changed on the day when the hill tribe comes to trade." ”

Long Qiupeng "pinched his fingers" and suddenly found that there had been 7 or 8 days left for this moment, that is, if they wanted to start a war before the other party found out, there were only more than ten days left.

I thought that there would be more time left for him, but now it seems that everything has to be accelerated.

Taking a deep breath, Long Qiupeng stood up and said, "Get ready, it seems that we still have a war to fight this autumn!" When the bear and the deer heard this, they knelt down before him and said, "Swear allegiance to the chief!" The clansmen in the other houses also knelt down one after another, showing their loyalty to Long Qiupeng.

Long Qiupeng nodded and said, "Everyone has worked hard since last night, now let's go and rest." ”

Before leaving, Xiong asked, "What about those three people?" ”

Hearing Xiong's question, Long Qiupeng closed his eyes and pondered for a while, while Xiong kept looking at Long Qiupeng's expressionless face, as if the answer would be written on his face. The council chamber once again fell into a dead silence because of Long Qiupeng's silence.

At this moment, Long Qiupeng opened his eyes, different from the past, that look was cold and sharp, and everyone present felt a chill on their backs, and then sweat oozed from their foreheads and left along their sideburns.

Long Qiupeng opened his mouth and said in a hoarse voice that he had not seen before: "Execute the person who betrayed the Qiutu tribe just now in public, and the remaining two people will be locked up first, and they must be guarded well, and there must be no mistakes!" ”

The clansmen were taken aback by such a Long Qiupeng, and fled quickly after receiving the order. In an instant, only Long Qiupeng was left standing there in the council hall, and the deer waiting for him.

He looked at the deer and asked, "Isn't it scary to look like me now?" "The first time he ordered the execution of a person, Long Qiupeng still couldn't accept it in his heart. But he has no choice, it is bound to be a fierce battle against the hill tribe below, and if he can't set rules for those tribesmen now, he won't know what will happen when he really goes head-to-head.

Moreover, if he kills the tight-lipped soldiers, but forgives the soldiers who defected, then his own people must follow suit, and sooner or later they will be in trouble.

Before this, due to Long Qiupeng's unstable status among the primitives, he used the Huairou policy for a long time to win everyone's favor and trust. Now that Long Qiupeng is firmly seated in the position of the leader of the Dragon Envoy Tribe, he has to start showing his iron-blooded and fierce side. After all, clear rewards and punishments are the core way to manage multi-person groups.

But these things, in the eyes of the deer, is not a thing, not long ago, he was still a member of the most primitive matriarchal clan commune tribe, after more than ten years of life of Ru Mao drinking blood, met Long Qiupeng for the first time realized that the original enemy does not need to be killed, so now Long Qiupeng ordered to kill a few people is nothing.

In his opinion, Xiong had just never seen Long Qiupeng ruthless, so he was scared now. But for Lu, when Long Qiupeng pointed a knife at his sister, he had seen it. He knew better than anyone that Long Qiupeng's gentleness only existed when the principles were not trampled on.

Lu Chonglong Qiupeng smiled and said: "Chief, let's eat something, otherwise let my sister know, and she should scold me again, in my opinion, she is more scary." ”

Hearing the deer's witty words, Long Qiupeng, who was tense all over, suddenly relaxed, he reached out to rub the deer's soft hair, and said with a smile: "Yes, it's more scary for your sister to start a fire." ”

Saying that, the two of them were also about to leave the council hall and go to Long Qiupeng's residence, and Lu ordered a person to send lunch to Long Qiupeng's residence.

Walking on the road, Long Qiupeng said to Lu: "Your sister's work task is too heavy, so you can take over the strategic materials in the next step, so that she only needs to engage in living materials." ”

The deer nodded and said, "No problem, but ......"

Before Lu finished speaking, Long Qiupeng knew what he wanted to say and interjected directly: "You have to be personally responsible for the exploration team and the barracks, Dahu can't do it, and I can't believe the others." But the matter of archers, I plan to leave it to Yi to deal with. ”
