Sitting on the ground of the chieftain's tent of the Chilikahua tribe, Esquat, who was a guest, showed respect for the chieftain with a serious face, and the high-ranking members of the tribe sat cross-legged on the ground, and they all looked at Esquat calmly and solemnly. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the past few days, Esquart has begun to visit the Apache tribe to win the support of these tribes, and he knows that the fight against the Tang people is by no means something that the Baishan tribe can accomplish, and must win the support of the entire Apache nation. The Apache were arguably the most powerful Indian power in the entire Midwest. The Apache and the Navajo people of the same origin and roots combined, with a population of more than 100,000, can make up at least 30,000 or 40,000 male warriors, and even if such a force were to attack the Tang people on the railway line separately, the Tang people would be overwhelmed and exhausted.

Previously, Esquat had visited the Lipan, Mascalero and other tribes, which had been attacked by the Tang people back then, and although their strength had decreased significantly, their hatred for the Tang people was also the most natural. Although Chilicava also lived in Southern New Mexico, he did not have much obvious conflict with the Tang people before. Of course, Esquat knew that the Chilica Chinese also had bandits who robbed the Tang trains, and they were also very covetous of the wealth of the Tang people.

The tribe was called Moglon and was a powerful part of the Chilikahua tribe, and their chieftain, Essincha, was also known for his aggressiveness, and if he could win over Moglon, Esquat would have a new force.

Essincha sat there and said in a nonchalant tone, "Although Chief Esquart has traveled a long way to Moglon to show your sincerity, the strength of the Tang people is something that all Apache knows. Let me lead the warriors of Moglon against the Dons. It's like a sand wolf against a giant bear. It is impossible to succeed. ”

Cussi on the side mocked: "I thought that Moglon men had a kind of it, but I didn't expect that they were also cowards without honor." ”

Several of the elders next to Essincha glared at Coussi, "What are you bastard talking about?!" ”

Esquat stretched out his hand to stop Coussy and said, "I apologize to you on behalf of my people, for I know that Moglon is known for his bravery throughout the plateau. ”

With a glint of wisdom in his eyes, Esinca said, "Courage is not the same as stupidity. ”

"Yes," said Esquat, "I believe that Moglon is a tribe of wisdom and bravery, and that Chief Esincha is a wise leader. But you also have to see. We are facing a formidable enemy, and we are also facing great risks. The Tang people are constantly encroaching on the land of the Apache people, and more and more Tang people are coming to our land. And we must let the Tang people know that the Apache are powerful, or we will be conquered in the end. Join us, as long as we defeat the Tang people and ask them to provide us with food and weapons, we will be able to become stronger and not have to worry about the threat of the Tang people. ”

Essinca laughed playfully: "I'm afraid the Tang people are not stupid guys, they provide us with food and weapons, why?" ”

Esquart said firmly: "Because of this railway." They can't give up, as long as we choke the railroad. It is to choke the throat of the Tang people, and the Tang people must be at our mercy, and they cannot afford to lose the railway. ”

Essinca nodded: "What you said makes some sense, but if you can't defeat the Tang people, it's like a cactus without roots, it can't stand." ”

Esquard nodded and said, "Yes, we Apache people are to unite, and only by uniting can we have enough strength." Moreover, we must not forget our own advantages, this is the home where we grew up, we are familiar with every grass and tree here, and we can use all conditions to attack the Tang people. At the same time, I am also ready to unite with the Spaniards to deal with the Tang people. The weakness of the Tang people is their railway, as long as we destroy the railway, the Tang people lose the ability to march quickly, and if they go deep into the plateau or desert, they can only become the prey of good Apache hunters! ”

It has to be said that Esquart is still a very inflammatory orator, his incendiary ability is innate, he has not experienced much training, and his intelligence allows him to find ways to incite others by reading words and feelings. His words were already limited to the approval of the Moglon people in the tent, for Esquart had actually assumed from the beginning that Essicha had already been moved. This is a man with an adventurous spirit and a dangerous temperament, and violence is his love.

Essinka discussed with the elders for a few words, then looked at Esquat and said, "It's not that Moglon can't fight side by side with the White Mountain people, but we have to see the sincerity of the White Mountain people. ”

Esquart asked, "How do we show our sincerity?" ”

"Chief Esquart is riding a Tang horse, this kind of horse is only available to the Tang people, it is the most outstanding mount, whether it is the appearance or foot strength, it is difficult for ordinary horses to compare, if Chief Esquart is really sincere, please give us this batch of horses as a gift, give us Moglon!"

Before Esquart could speak, Cousy became furious, and he exclaimed, "The sweat and blood horse is the most important thing for Esquart, and it is the treasure of his life, how can I say that I will give it to you, you guys are embarrassing us!" ”

Essien didn't look at the irascible Cousie, his eyes were still staring at Esquat, and said, "It's because it's precious enough to reflect the sincerity of the people of the White Mountain, do you say yes, Chief Esquat?" ”

Esquart's face sank like water, but he didn't have the slightest seizure, he looked at Escincha, and said very calmly: "Chief Eschencha is right, this is undoubtedly the gift that can best reflect the sincerity of our White Mountain, then I will make the decision and give this BMW to Moglon!" ”

Cousie was shocked, "Esquat, don't you have to think about it anymore?" ”

Esquart shook his head and said, "No, the most important thing is to reap Moglon's friendship. ”

Escincha laughed and said, "Rejoice! It's really a pleasure! In that case, we Moglon have joined this Apache Alliance, rest assured, Chief Esquat, you will not regret your decision, great Moglon warriors, capable of destroying all Apache enemies. May our friendship be evergreen! ”

Esquart nodded with a smile on his face, "May our friendship last forever." ”

In this way, Esquat left the Moglon tribe with a few retinues, and he did not look again at his favorite horse. (To be continued.) )
