"Patriarch Santos is right, those Chinese are indeed getting more and more excessive, we should give them a little bit of a taste, so that they know who is the master of this vast forest!" Another elderly indigenous person said he was the patriarch of the Rabas tribe, the third-highest among the indigenous tribes.
"If you want me to say, we should kill all the Chinese this time! Hundreds of years ago, our ancestors allowed these Chinese to live on our turf, which was a mistake at all. These Chinese people are constantly robbing us of our wealth, which is why we are poor, while they live a life of fine clothes and food, which we absolutely cannot bear. They deserve a portion of their wealth to us! But now, instead of sharing the wealth with us, they are slaughtering our people. Therefore, we should kill all those Chinese and rob them of all their wealth and women! A strong man said. He was the patriarch of the Boulder tribe, Kus, the fourth largest of the indigenous tribes, and he coveted the wealth and women of the Chinese. In the past few years, the Giant Rock Department has launched several attacks on Chinese villages, and there have been more than a dozen Chinese villages destroyed by them, large and small, and thousands of Chinese have died at his hands.
Kus's words aroused the unanimous approval of the natives, who believed that they were the owners of the land, and they took pity on the Chinese and allowed the Chinese to set foot on the land, so that the Chinese could thrive on Mindanao. Through their hard work, the Chinese people have made a good living. But in the eyes of the natives, this is because the Chinese have plundered the wealth that belonged to them, and as the owners of the land, the Chinese should share this wealth with them, as if they were paying taxes. They had no idea why the Chinese could live a good life, while they could only starve in the forest.
These uncivilized natives are lazy and willing to use force to snatch the wealth they need rather than hard work. And the kind and weak Chinese have undoubtedly become the target of these natives. For a long time, the Chinese have been oppressed by the natives, but even so, the Chinese persevered. Now, with the advent of the Flying Fish Company, the Chinese have united and dealt a heavy blow to these natives. It also let these natives know that the Chinese are no longer at their mercy. But the natives certainly don't want that to happen. Therefore, they hope that all the natives can unite and prevent the Chinese from continuing to be strong. If you can destroy the Chinese, kill them all, and divide the wealth and women of the Chinese, it will undoubtedly be the best.
"Very good, since everyone agrees, then we will join forces and jointly launch an attack on the Chinese and destroy them all!" Santos, the patriarch of the Rosa tribe, waved his hands and said excitedly. Although the Chinese showed great strength, he believed that all the indigenous tribes would be able to exterminate the Chinese if they came together. After all, their population is several times that of the Chinese, and they are able to dispatch fighters, which is more than ten times that of the Chinese!
"Patriarch Santos, the Chinese have very powerful firearms. In addition, they have built a city at the mouth of the Agusan River, and it will be difficult for us to storm the city! Another middle-aged native said that he was the chief of the second-ranked tribe, the Tuan tribe. The Tu'an tribe is in the eastern coastal areas, and they have more contact with foreign merchants and are well aware of the power of firearms.
"The Chinese have great firearms, and our bows and arrows and spears are not vegetarian. Those timid Chinese simply did not have the courage to fight our brave warriors. As for the cities of the Chinese, we can propose a decisive battle with the Chinese on the plains! If they weren't cowards, they would have promised to fight us! Kus, the patriarch of the Boulder Tribe, suggested.
"That's right, if those Chinese don't dare to fight, we will destroy all their farmland!" The patriarch of the La Paz tribe also said.
"That's good! That's what we decided! I immediately sent someone to inform the Chinese that in a month we would have a decisive battle at Wurui by the Agusan River! If they dare not fight, they will be thrown out of our land. Otherwise, we will destroy all their farmland and starve them to death! Said the Santos patriarch of the Rosa Ministry.
The patriarchs of the other indigenous tribes also nodded their heads as a good idea. If the Chinese were hiding in a fortified city, the natives would really have no way to take the Chinese. But if it is in the field, the numerical superiority of the natives can be brought into play. If the Chinese did not dare to fight, they also thought of countermeasures, that is, to destroy the farmland of the Chinese, and when there was no food, the Chinese could only starve to death!
After that, the major tribes began to discuss the number of troops to send. As the largest tribe among the indigenous people, Santos said that the Rosa tribe will send 20,000 elite warriors so that this time they can completely defeat the Chinese and kill them all! The patriarch of the Tuan tribe, Kema, said that the Tuan tribe and its affiliated tribes could send a total of 15,000 people. The tribe of La Paz sent 12,000 men, and the Giant Rock tribe sent 10,000 men. Together with other small tribes, there were soon 100,000 men. In this regard, the patriarchs of several large tribes were very satisfied, thinking that dispatching 100,000 soldiers was enough to destroy the Chinese! As long as the Chinese army is wiped out, the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled will not be their opponents at all. The wealth and women of the Chinese belong to them. When they think of the wealth that the Chinese have accumulated over the years, as well as those beautiful Chinese, these natives drool.
After the natives had finished their deliberations, they all returned to their tribes. It is not an easy task to get to Wurui within a month, and you have to hurry up. Fortunately, these natives grew up in the jungle and are more suitable for moving in the jungle than the Chinese. Walking through the jungle, they are even more flat.
The envoy of the Rosa Ministry arrived in Flying Fish City a week later. However, he was directly kidnapped. After leaving the forest, he was spotted by the patrolling Exocets. These Exoces didn't shoot directly, but wanted to capture the prisoner, otherwise, he would have died a long time ago. At the critical moment, the native showed that he was an emissary sent by the indigenous tribe, and there happened to be someone in the Exocet who could understand the native's language. That's when he was brought to Flying Fish City.
On the afternoon of June 26, Long Yufei received a report from the Flying Fish Army that the natives had sent an envoy, so he met with the high-level officials of the Ministry of Government and the military. Although the Exocet are now fighting against the natives, the necessary diplomatic etiquette is still adhered to.
Long Yufei sat in the hall and looked at the indigenous envoy in front of him. This native, covered in black, wearing sackcloth clothes, has not been washed for I don't know how long, and exudes a rancid smell. The indigenous envoys were short, only one meter four or five. Among the natives, it is very rare to grow to more than 1.6 meters, generally only so tall, plus the body is thin, and there seems to be no big difference from the wild monkeys in the forest.
"Tell me what you mean?" Long Yufei asked straight to the point, he didn't have so much time to waste. If he had the time, he might as well go and see the construction of the 'Shark-class' cruiser!
"Patriarch of the Chinese, is this your attitude towards the envoy?" The indigenous envoy had his hands tied, and even if he was standing, he was about the same height as Long Yufei who was sitting.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense! Besides, be careful that we send you straight to the mines as slaves! Long Yufei said coldly.
The indigenous envoy was frightened and hurriedly got to the point: "The patriarch of the Chinese, the master of Mindanao, and the patriarchs of the major tribes have already discussed, and the attack of you Chinese on the tribes has seriously damaged our interests!" We formally ask you to cease your assault on the tribes and get out of Mindanao at once. Otherwise, we'll kill you all!" ”
"Kill us all? Ha Lu Ha! Do you have what it takes? Long Yufei said with a smile. If it was when the Flying Fish Company was just established, the natives might still have this strength. But now? Not to mention, Flying Fish City alone can keep these natives out of the city!
"Patriarch of the Chinese, if you have the guts, fight a decisive battle with us, and the victorious one will become the master of this land! Those who lose will be killed. The loser's wealth and the woman's will belong to the winner. Do you dare? The native envoy asked with a look of disdain.
"Fighting you? How many troops are you going to platoon? Long Yufei asked with some amusement.
"The major tribes have prepared a total of 100,000 troops! We can easily destroy you! So, surrender! Hand over your riches and women, and get out of Mindanao! The native envoy said haughtily. He thought that Long Yufei would definitely be frightened when he heard that the natives would send 100,000 troops. However, then he found that Long Yufei didn't look scared at all.
"We're not stupid? Why should I listen to you and fight you in the field? If you have the guts, you can attack Flying Fish City! We'll have your corpses covered in the land outside the city! Minister of Political Affairs Li Decheng couldn't help but say.
"Humph! You Chinese, you are really cowards! I warn you, if you don't dare to fight, get out of here! If you avoid the war, we will destroy your farmland and starve you to death!" The native messenger threatened!
