)

In the camp of Mohican, the elders gathered and were messing around with the news of the black bear.

The old chieftain, Samara, was silent with a blank face, and his son Atido sat quietly beside him.

After bidding farewell to Zhao Hongyu and leaving Manhattan Island, Black Bear returned to the Moxigan Territory, where he needed the opinion of the elders of the Dao and the old leader, Samara.

As Zhao Hongyu said, there are many things that they are not able to call the shots now.

What Zhao Hongyu can do is to lead his warriors to fight against the white skins, and fight in order not to become the slaves of the white skins.

So, what about his black bear?

In fact, the black bear also wants to fight with the whiteskins like Zhao Hongyu. In his bones, he originally had a belligerent factor, a personality that would never admit defeat, and a hatred for the whiteskins.

But in the Moxigan tribe, the warriors that the black bear can muster by virtue of his personal ability are just a hundred people.

More than a hundred people wanted to fight the whites, but it was not enough.

Therefore, if there is an all-out war with the whiteskins, it will require the consent of the elders and the old leader.

Only then will they be able to muster enough warriors to fight against the whites.

At the same time, in the name of the entire tribe of Mohican, it is also possible to ask the vassal tribes and the tribes with whom they are friendly to send warriors to participate.

"Why do you want to go to war with us Mohicans? Is this news true? Maybe the whites are gathering warriors to wage war with other tribes, and we don't need to make a fuss, right? Quite a few words"

"What's in it for them to go to war with us? I don't understand. ”

"Whiteskins gather the warriors, and I think we'll have to react as well."

"We should send an emissary to the city of Yaksali to negotiate with the whiteskins. It's not good for them to go to war, and I think they know that. ”

"Give the whiteskins some benefits, these greedy guys get enough benefits, and they won't deal with us."

The elders expressed their opinions one after another, but most of them did not mention going to war against the whites, either negotiating or choosing to give the whites benefits in the hope of peaceful coexistence.

The black bear looked at the elders and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

Samara looked at the elders in silence, and no one knew what was going on in the mind of the old leader of the Dao.

His son, Atido, looked at the elders, and then at his old father. His mind was in turmoil, but he couldn't come up with a good proposal, which discouraged Atido.

Samara felt his son's reaction, he was not silent, and asked in a low voice, "Do you have any ideas?" ”。

Faced with his father's question, Atido shook his head and replied, "I don't know what to do, but I think in my own heart that we Mohican people have lived here for generations, and whether or not the whiteskins really want to take our land, we must recognize this. And the whites are so greedy that even if we go to negotiate with them, the whiteskins won't give up. ”

I have to say that although Atido is very young, he still sees things more accurately.

At least, he has a good grasp of the mentality of the whiteskins.

Samara nodded, and said to Atido, his beloved son, "The whiteskins will definitely not rest in northern Shaanxi this time, and even if we send messengers to negotiate with them with the will for peace, we will not gain anything." The old chieftain Samara saw this problem even more clearly.

Now that the British soldiers have been gathered, they will not waste this manpower.

Moreover, the Mosican tribes have begun to assimilate nearby tribes through trade during this time, and if it takes long enough, these tribes will fully integrate into Mohican. …,

The old chieftain Samara has already seen this.

However, this is of great benefit to Mohican, so Samara did not stop the cooperation with Zhao Hongyu. After all, the benefits of doing so would be too great for the Moxie tribe.

If the surrounding tribes could integrate into Mohican, Samara would be happy to see this happen. This will make Mohican very powerful, and the population will even exceed 100,000 or 200,000.

When the Moxie tribe is strong, what enemies will they fear?

Unfortunately, now it seems that the whites have seen this too, so they can't wait to strangle the Moxie dry tribe.

This kind of thing is not less done by the whites, and many potential tribes have been ruthlessly strangled by the whiteskins when they have just shown their heads.

Samara has lived so long and seen so much.

Zhao Hongyu didn't expect that the old leader Samara actually thought badly, but the result was developing in the direction he wanted.

"What is going to happen like this?" , Atido looked at his father suspiciously, he really couldn't figure out that Moxican didn't have much contact with the whiteskins, and there was no conflict. But this time the whiteskins were going to attack Mohican, which really didn't make him understand.

The son is still too young, and although he is a little clever, it is still far from his expectations.

Looking at Atido's puzzled expression, Samara felt slightly disappointed in his heart.

"Don't you think, Atido, that after we started trading, the surrounding tribes and even the tribes farther away were trading with us, and the direct consequence of this was that the whites would not receive the furs and other supplies they needed." Samara whispered to her son as plain as possible so that he could learn something.

"You know, the white people are very greedy for money, and they come to our land from the seas for furs and other products. And what we do happens to be the loss of the interests of these whiteskins, so it makes sense that they want to deal with us Mohican now. ”

Listening to the old father's explanation to himself little by little, young Atido gradually understood what was going on.

"More importantly, the whiteskins don't want to see our Mohican rise. Because a powerful Moxie tribe is not in the interest of their white people. Only if all of us Indians are like a plate of loose sand, can they continue to dominate the land. ”

Historically, not all Indian tribes have been unable to see the situation. In fact, there are some wise men, and they all know very well that if the Indian tribes are united, they will not be able to deal with the white skins at all.

It's just that most of the Indians don't understand and don't understand this truth.

And those tribes who saw clearly where the fundamental problem was, on the eve of their rise, were defeated and destroyed by other tribes for one reason or another, or were directly destroyed by the whites.

Thus, the Indians fell into a strange circle, although they fought continuously. But they have never been able to beat the white people, because they have fallen far behind the times in terms of weapons and cultural concepts.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Samarra, the leader of the Mohican, saw the problem clearly.

It's just that he doesn't know what to do, in fact, the reason why the British started the war against Mohican is only because of gold.

Of course, there are other factors involved. For example, weakening other Indian tribes or something, or taking the opportunity to expand the British territory.

In short, the benefits are great.

At the same time, the trade of the Mossi tribe did affect the volume of trade between the British and the Indians. Economically, the British suffered a lot of losses, which made many merchants resentful. …,

So, this time the Governor of Virginia wanted to wage war against Mohican, and the merchants of Virginia were very much in favor of it.

Because after defeating the Mohicans, they can get the technique of the second pot head from the hands of the Mohicans, as well as the method of making matches. There is also the technique of making beautiful wooden dishes, along with all the goods that are popular in the Moxikan area.

Because I don't know that this is the commodity provided by Zhao Hongyu, the source of the manufacture of these goods is recorded on Mo Xigan's head.

For these extremely sensitive businessmen, how can they not see the huge benefits contained in it.

But they can't go to Moxie to dry the guns, right? Not a lot of words

Deception certainly doesn't work, and since Mohican knows how to trade, it must know some business principles.

Getting back to the point, Atido listened to his father's explanation and began to digest the information.

Bang Bang Bang!

Seeing that his son fell silent, Samara turned his attention to the talking elders. He saw that the elders were still talking, and full of capitulationist views, which made Samara a a little angry.

So, he raised his hand and patted it, quieting everyone down.

"I just heard your conversation, and I see that everyone is talking about negotiating with the whiteskins to get the necessary peace, right?"

In the face of Samara's question, the elders were silent.

"Let's talk about it, isn't what you just said quite lively?"

Everyone was addicted, which made Samara very unhappy. When I didn't ask you just now, I was elated one by one, but now I let you say one by one and pretend to be dumb.

In fact, these elders are hereditary, and the courage to snort those ordinary Indian warriors is not as good as them.

Therefore, after receiving the news from the black bear, their first reaction was to negotiate with the whiteskins in exchange for peace.

Of course, this also has something to do with their knowledge that white people are strong and powerful.

If Zhilu Dao was at war with a small tribe, these elders would definitely be clamoring.

For the virtues of these elders, Samara was very contemptuous in his heart.

But he couldn't do anything about it, who made them elders. Who gave them a greater say in the tribe than he Samara?

That's the way the rules of the tribe have been handed down, and Samara can't change them. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to () subscribe, reward, your support is my biggest motivation. )……，
