"How could it be? When the Dawn Council first arrived on the West Coast, they sent anomalies to attack the Silver Coast, only to flee back a few people, so they didn't dare to continue slaughtering the surrounding tribes. The elder shook his head: "They didn't dare to come forward in person, so they used those evil idols to lure the small tribe and let these dogs beat others." It is our tribe that refuses to turn our backs on our ancestors that we have the ability to resist. ”

"Originally, after the defeat, we were going to go to the Silver Coast, but the enemy bought pirates to block the coast, and we couldn't get there. So it is only possible to go in this direction. "The Silver Coast has provided us with a lot of things before, and they are good people too!"

"Understood. Townsend nodded: "Let's talk about the situation of the tribe itself, has it been completely dispersed by the enemy?"

"The people of the main family were killed, and the people of the side families were killed in battle and surrendered...... The small tribes that vassal us surrendered early on. Vahu's face was full of grief and indignation: "Except for these people I brought out, and the people who hid in the dock warehouse a long time ago, the rest of the people have been robbed by several hostile tribes, and they ...... will become a slave to other tribes. ”

"The population is divided. Townsend asked, "What about your territory, and will the resources be divided up or will they be taken by the Dawn Council?"

"The Dawn Council does not have direct control over the territory, but can only be divided among other tribes. The elder said, "Then they let the tribes hand over most of their territory in the form of offerings." Because there are Psychic Divisions, they know how much the tribe produces. ”

"Is your original production very good?" Townsend asked, "If you can afford to raise a thousand warriors and support a population of tens of thousands, your tribe's territory must be very large, right?"

"We have a large and fertile territory, a stretch of coastline and a few fishing grounds, and the surplus food can be exchanged for money to make wine and help the surrounding tribes. The elder nodded and said, "We have mines, we have forests, and we produce a lot of supernatural raw materials and precious animal skins. In the past, these were gifts for the Silver Coast, as well as for fine weapons and large fishing nets. ”

"Are there many specialties?" Townsend, taking the question seriously, "is it the kind of thing that is not available anywhere else, but is important?"

"Yes!" the elder nodded affirmatively, "There are at least five kinds of ability raw materials that are our specialty, and they are small and expensive. In addition, there are metal mines in the hilly areas of our territory. ”

"Is it possible to take it back?" Since Townsend is going to talk about cooperation with Vahu, this kind of question cannot be avoided: "I mean it is divided into several situations, the first is that you can take it back in a short period of time, with your own strength?"

"No, I can't. Vahu and the elder shook their heads at the same time, both of them understanding: "The enemy is too strong. ”

"In the second case, if you use external forces in the short term, such as hiring an army, can you take it back?"

"No, I can't. The two shook their heads again, and the elder explained the reason: "There are no such mercenaries on the West Coast, and even if there were, they would not choose to oppose the Dawn Council. And in the north of Quelsa, we are the only tribe that has ever dared to resist. ”

"In the third case, if you can reach the Silver Coast safely, will the Connorives help you regain your territory and restore the tribe to its original appearance?" Faced with this question, Vahu and his elders were silent at the same time, and their expressions were very gloomy.

"What's wrong?" Townsend asked suspiciously, "Isn't the Silver Coast your biggest supporter?" or do you not believe that I can send you to the Silver Shore?"

"That's not how we think, Mr. Townsend, you're not from the West Coast after all, and you don't know our business very well. The elder patted Vahu on the shoulder, trying to comfort the depressed chief as much as possible: "Let me tell you straight, we wanted to go to the Silver Coast at that time, and we just wanted to save everyone's lives. At least on the Silver Coast, they did not dare to hunt us down. ”

"I have heard of that man, His Royal Highness Prince Pfister Aldrich Connell, who has great authority on the West Coast. Townsend had long remembered the name: "He's the heir of the Silver Coast, he should help you, right?"

"His Royal Highness Prince Pfister is of course very prestigious, but the maximum he can do is to protect us from being hunted down, and other things such as reclaiming the territory and restoring the tribe are up to us. Vahu finally cheered up, explaining, "This happened to us in other places on the West Coast, and His Highness Pfister later allocated small islands for the fleeing to survive. ”

"That's ...... the Silver Coast's disposition was unexpected, "So, let's assume that you also get an island, what are your next plans?

Vahu's expression was sad, and the elder's eyes were sad, and neither of them could answer for a long time. So Townsend knew in his heart that these two people actually knew that they couldn't take revenge, and they shouted slogans, just hoping to maintain the fragile status quo......

In fact, if you think about it, the complete tribe that originally occupied so much territory, so many resources and population has failed, and the remaining two or three little ones are still delusional about revenge?

Townsend sighed and stood up, walked back and forth under the gaze of the two of them, and muttered for a moment before speaking: "In other words, in fact, you have no idea of revenge. You also understand that you can't actually get back your own tribal territory or something. In other words, what is most important to you at the moment is your own survival, including your women and children?"

Although there were mixed feelings and 110,000 reluctances, the two still nodded in front of the facts.

"With this premise, then our affairs are easier to discuss. Relieved, Townsend returned to the table and sat down, and then said, "My power is called Thorn Rose, and I am the only leader. ”

"Mr. Townsend, we already know this. Vahu replied.

"There's something you don't know. Townsend gave a general introduction to the overall situation of the Thorn Rose, including the detailed division of labor and development strategies of the merchant group, the army, and other systems, and then threw out the main topic of the day: "As the leader, I now invite Chief Vahu and your men to join the Thorn Rose!"

"Join the Thorn Rose?" In this kind of thing, the elder is obviously a little older than the younger man: "What way, please?"

"Everybody is fully involved, everybody has a place to fit, it can be a fighter, it may be a laborer, it may be someone else, it may be someone else's place. I pledge to treat everyone fairly. Townsend's words were not subtle at all: "I can give Chief Vahu a fairly high position, and then give the elder a corresponding position, so you don't have to worry about your subordinates being bullied." ”
