499 Retribution (M)

Esquart hopes to settle his own people and then turn back to dealing with the Tang. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoIn order to keep his people as safe as possible, Esquart wanted to go as far east and north as possible, out of the control of the Tangs. Of course, Esquat didn't know that to the north of New Mexico were the two inland states of the Tang Dynasty, Luan and Yuanzhou, and although they were less populated than the three states on the west coast, they still posed a greater threat to the Apaches. Unlike the Apaches, the Jews living in the Luanzhou and Yuanzhou regions, although there were some conflicts with the Tang people before, but the Tang people brought more advanced animal husbandry and began to hire some Utah people to work, so in general, the Jews got along with the Tang people, and many Utah people were naturalized by the Tang people, living in some cities such as Salt Lake City and Huyang (Grand Junction), or jointly operating local ranches with the Tang people.

If Esquart really escaped to the territory of Source State, then what awaited him would definitely not be a good end.

Esquart didn't have a definite destination, but he knew he had to at least cross Mount Mogoillon. Sheltered by a large mountain that would at least cause some trouble for the Tang to pursue, Esquart needed to take the White Mountaineers far enough to settle down. However, the food carried by Hakusan's team was running out, and it was a difficult time to get food at this time, especially when they were still on their way. Esquat hoped to be able to borrow a certain amount of food from the nearby Apache tribe of Moglon so that they could sustain themselves.

Chahmo, who was already tall and thin, had become thinner due to lack of food, said to Esquat, "Esquat, the Mogro people are not a good thing, especially the chieftain Esquat. Also scammed your BMW. We borrow food from them. Will they promise to lend it to us? ”

Esquart's face was rather indifferent. "We have a pact, and it is the right thing to help each other. ”

Still pessimistic, Cussi said, "Even if Essingchaken gives us food, how much food will there be on Moglon to feed our entire tribe?" ”

Esquat glanced at Coussi and said, "As a last resort, we will kill Moglon and rob their tribe of food, and have plenty of food." We'll be able to move on. This is the journey we must complete, Moglon does not have enough food, we kill their men and eat their flesh, this is the test of the god of fire and the god of water and moon, as unyielding Apache warriors, we must pass. ”

Chahemo was surprised: "Cannibalism? How can this work, and Moglon is a tribe that has a pact with us. ”

Cousie looked at Esquat, who had become more and more gloomy these days, making people feel terrible. He said, "We attacked Moglon and robbed them of their food. If the other tribes know about it, the alliance we've worked so hard to build will be over. ”

Esquards nodded and said, "So, we can't let anyone else know." You must not spare a single Moglon and kill them all, men, women, and children. After that, we can push the matter of bloodbathing Moglon to the Tang people, anyway, they are already doing this kind of thing, and others will not be surprised. ”

Esquart had become more and more incomprehensible, and Cousie and Chahemo looked at each other, not knowing what to say. And Esquart said, "Let our warriors be ready, we will attack the Mogroon tribe at dawn, kill every Mogroon, let the women and the old men be ready, and then use them to break down the flesh of the Mogroons." We must prepare for the worst, and I'll be the first to eat the flesh of the Mogrolons. ”

A chieftain who has been stunned, even if he was once wise and charismatic, but when he comes to this point, everyone will be afraid, because such a person will lead an entire tribe into the abyss.

The White Mountain tribe trudged on some rugged mountain roads, this is the Mogoyong Mountains, the terrain is quite complex and precipitous. Of course, for the people of Baishan, it is not too difficult to walk the mountain road, because the Baishan where they live is also a mountainous terrain. The slight trouble is that they have a lot of horses for loading and riding, and their horses are not very resistant to mountain roads, so their travel speed is limited.

They were advancing along the relatively flat terrain of the river valley, a path that Esquat and the others had traversed the last time they had fought for the Moglon tribe to join the Apache League. Even the Moglon people have very little activity here, so Esquat and the others are more comfortable and bold.

The valley meandered, and the procession reached a narrower point. It was at this moment that Esquart seemed to sense that something was wrong, and he had a very accurate premonition, and almost instantly, he stood on his feet.

Cousie was a little strange: "Esquart, what's going on?" ”

Before Esquart could speak, suddenly there was a rumbling sound on the slopes of the hills on both sides, and the people of the White Mountain looked in horror to see that some huge rocks at least half a man high had rolled down the slopes. Due to the arid climate of the interior, the peaks here are not covered with much vegetation, and many of them are bare rocks, and when the rocks roll down from the top of the mountains, they bring up yellow sand and dust, which is also very terrifying.

Esquat's eyes were split, and he shouted, "It's an ambush!" ”

But this cry was useless, and the boulders on the top of the mountain, which were pryed by wooden sticks, rolled and fell down on the white mountain people in the river valley, and some of the white mountain people even jumped into the river in terror, hoping to avoid being crushed by the boulders. But the cold and biting water of the river in winter is also fatal to them, they have no warm clothing, and if the water is not good, diving is equivalent to suicide. The unlucky guy was directly hit by the boulder, crushed his legs, and even killed directly.

After the boulder fell, a group of Indians dressed like the White Mountain Apache were rushing down from the top of the mountain, and from their accessories, Esquart could clearly tell that they were from the Moglon tribe!

The panicked White Mountain people were already in disarray, there were women and children in their ranks, and the warriors could not be distracted to take care of them, let alone unite against the enemy, they could only pick up the muskets or knives in their hands in a panic, trying to resist the Mogrolons who had been killed. Almost none of the Mogroons were armed with muskets, but were armed with axes or spears, and on the top of the hill there were archers firing arrows at them, and Esquart could be seen faintly as Escincha stood and looked down.
