Chapter 147: Dilemma
All the negotiations have been completed, and Su Ming and the others are about to return to their respective tribes, bringing back the results of the negotiations they have negotiated in the past few days, so that the other high-level members of the tribe can understand and discuss the contents of the terms together.
If there are still disagreements on those terms, and no internal agreement can be reached, the three clans will gather together to negotiate a solution. Although there may be some minor objections or flaws, the general direction has now been determined and will not be changed.
That is, the three suzerain-led tribes of the Fish Tribe, the Tooth Tribe, and the Fire Tribe, together with the subordinate tribes below, form a huge tribal alliance with equal status, unite all forces, and help each other.
So a super league with a population of more than 4 million people gradually emerged in their few days of negotiations.
Whether they are facing the challenge of the wild beasts or other tribes, the three tribes will advance and retreat together, and they will not only form economic, political, and military alliances to defend the interests of our tribes.
Just when Su Ming and the others were celebrating the success of the alliance, there were also many unpredictable things in distant places.
"Wolf worker, you say, what should we do next?" In the residence of the wolf tribe, in a majestic and magnificent house decorated with a lot of fine furs, wolf red sat on a fine chair and asked the tribal priest wolf worker next to him, his voice was confused, and there was a trace of anxiety and uneasiness.
"We have to get out of here, it's so evenly spaced, there's no topography at all, and if we meet them, we won't have the slightest chance of winning. It will also be the same as those tribes, completely destroyed, and there will be no fluke. ”
The wolf worker thought quietly for a while before slowly speaking. Although the situation does not seem to be very critical right now, it is time to think about the way back.
Five days ago, there was news from the distant tribes that several large tribes had been wiped out, and the enemies were all fierce wild beasts.
What happened very suddenly, the giant beasts who had been with the well water of the various tribes did not interfere with the river water, but suddenly they seemed to go crazy and directly launched against the various tribes bordering their territory.
Many tribes have been destroyed by them, but until now, no reason has been discovered why the behemoths did so.
And what's even more weird is that there are many reckless beasts that used to act alone, but now they have gathered and formed groups. Their territories are grouped together, so that the size is getting bigger and bigger, but there are also more people in one territory, and their power becomes stronger.
Not only in the confrontation with other wild beasts, the large number of races occupies more advantages, but also when attacking various tribes, they can also quickly gather enough strength.
"But, where should we go? The path to the distance is now half occupied by the wild beasts, and if they can't pass before they launch a follow-up attack and completely cut off the road to the outside world, then they can only be trapped in this area, and then gradually hunted and exterminated. ”
Wolf Hong faced the situation in front of him and carefully analyzed it, but even if the analysis was clear and accurate, it could not change the dangerous situation of the tribe now.
"But, Chief, have you ever thought about it, even if we can pass through without any problems, there is no territory large enough to house our people. That's where our tribe migrated in the first place. "The wolf workers are not optimistic about the outcome of their migration back to their former tribal areas.
It is also an indisputable fact that long ago, their tribe was separated from the tribe and migrated to this place because they were too populated and did not have enough territory to support them.
If they go back, in order to get enough territory to feed their tribes, they will have to wage war with the local tribes and seize the land for survival by force.
When the time comes, killing and chaos will be the main theme of their tribe, and this also indicates a large number of casualties among the tribesmen, and may even be exterminated in a war.
"Then, where can we go?" After being reminded by the wolf worker, thinking about the situation over there, he also found the problem, and the impatience of having no way out for a while made him feel very depressed.
"Actually, we have one more place to go, and that is the Fire Tribe. Suddenly, in this quiet room, the wolf worker said slowly.
"Didn't you say that they are at war right now? Moreover, the enemies of the Fire Tribe are very powerful, just a southern expeditionary army, the number of people is as high as 30,000, and all our warriors are so many. After hearing the suggestion of the priest wolf worker, Wolf Hong was also full of questions, and he couldn't pay an exact attention, after all, this was a matter of life and death for the entire tribe, which couldn't help but make him imprudent.
"The Fire Tribe has already defeated them, since we defeated them once, we can defeat them a second time, if we add our full help to guard the Fire Tribe station, it is still very certain.
And I have faith in them, I have witnessed their war, the enemy is more than 30,000 people, menacing, but in the end, half of them are actually lost, and the casualties of the Fire Tribe themselves are very few. ”
Recalling the original battle, the wolf workers also sighed, such a brilliant victory was unheard of before.
This was also at the beginning of the spring, he left the Fire Tribe station with the trading team, otherwise after staying for a while, he would have been able to know the news that the Tooth Tribe had come to peace talks, which would further enhance his confidence.
"But, in what capacity will we join them when the time comes?" Wolf Red was also moved by the words at this time, thinking that it was a good attention, but he also had his own concerns.
If he joins as an equal tribe, he is afraid that the Fire Tribe will not be very willing, after all, they will pay a large amount of territory in exchange for some gratitude from their own tribe, only pay for things that are not rewarded, who wants?
However, if you go as a subordinate tribe, then those affiliated tribes of your own tribe will also be dissolved, which is the disadvantage of the subsidiary system, and the affiliated tribes do not have affiliated tribes.
If this is really done, this will not only seriously damage the strength of your own tribe, but it is also very likely that your own subordinate tribes will be at the same level and become subordinate tribes of the Fire Tribe.
When the time comes, the relationship between the suzerain's tribe and the subordinate tribe will become a subordinate tribe of the same tribe, and the status will become equal, and the huge difference in this status will not only make the wolf red feel unwilling, but also the clansmen of the wolf tribe.
"What else? It can only be a subordinate tribe of the Fire Tribe, otherwise the Fire Tribe will not allow us to go to their side. Moreover, they are connected to our side by a cave, which occupies an absolute geographical advantage, and will definitely be able to stop the attack of those wild beasts. The wolf worker also knows the leader's concerns, but in his opinion, the tribe is going to be destroyed, and those face-saving things can be sent, after all, survival and the continuation of the tribe are the most important in his eyes.
This is also the difference in the position of the two, resulting in some differences in concepts and emphasis, the leader, as a warrior, has some heroism, and thinks more about the status, strength and values of the tribe. As the wise men of the tribe, the priest thinks more about the civilization of the tribe and the inheritance and development of culture.
The considerations of the two sides are not high, they are all for the development and survival of the tribe, but everyone's focus is very different.
