Chapter 69: Progress
As the earliest messenger, Ashin has been growing ever since he was promoted.
This growth is reflected in the fact that he can already understand why diplomacy is so important.
He clearly remembered that in the past, there were basically no such rules between various tribes, and it was often an encounter that was encountered.
And since the concept and rules of the messenger were established, most of the surrounding tribes chose to accept it.
When there is a dispute, they are more inclined to let the envoys communicate first, and if it can be resolved peacefully, they are more willing to settle it peacefully.
Especially after the trading relationship, the tribes in the trading network have begun to spontaneously maintain this trading system.
For example, when two tribes that have established a trading relationship are faced with a tribe outside the trading network, they will instinctively pull the strings.
There was even a matter of cooperating to rob the nomadic tribes, and some information sharing would be carried out.
Some tribes have even begun to swap relatives, even if they are not kinship.
These are the things that come naturally after communication is widespread.
So Ashin understands very well why Yan Zheng has been worried that these tribes will join forces to deal with Monabu.
And in order to kill this idea of other tribes, Yan Zheng also let him carry out a lot of diplomatic activities, almost every month to win over and deter.
Ashin is now the second person in the region who has the clearest view of the situation.
In addition to Yan Zheng, he has a certain understanding of the situation and will look at all the tribes in this area from a certain height.
This is related to his diplomatic position, and subtly, his perspective on problems has been elevated by Yan Zheng.
Although there are still some things that I don't know much about, Ashin is also a very pondering person.
He knew that Yan Zheng obviously didn't have more patience to gather the nomadic tribe this time, so he would adopt this kind of obedient gift-giving and disobedient method of exterminating the clan.
Thinking of the abundant harvest of the tribe's grain, Ashin understands that Monabu has embarked on a new path.
At the same time, he felt that Yan Zheng's purpose in doing this was definitely not limited to this.
"Ashin! You've run more tribes than me, and that tribe is the richest? Lu Wan on the side held a spear three people high, and asked as he walked.
Ashin retracted his thoughts and said, "The other tribes are actually very poor, but the tribes close to us have begun to slowly become richer. If I had to say that I had to say that I was the richest, I think it should be the headquarters of the Douwei Society. ”
"Douwei Society Headquarters!" Lu Wan smiled and said, "Last time, I destroyed the West Naibu, the god ...... The chief finally gave me two female captives, and you said that if the Douwei Society was destroyed, how many wives could I have? ”
"That's not a wife, that's a concubine! The chief said, one wife and two concubines, don't think about it! Ansan stabbed in disgust, he didn't like to fight for women.
Ashin also said: "The headquarters of the Douwei Society is still very strong, and now the strategy of the Divine Son is to isolate them, unite the surrounding tribes around us, and then wait for the change of strength." ”
Lu Wan patted his chest and said with a bold smile: "No matter how strong we are, we can't be stronger, I see!" It is time to destroy all the other tribes and turn their people into naturalized people, you see that we, the soldiers of the naturalized people, are not bad at all! ”
The naturalized soldiers in the back were all smiling, and it seemed that they were very proud to be commended by the platoon commander.
Ashin felt that Tong Luwan couldn't understand, so he only said: "In short, the Son of God must think farther than us, besides, if they all become naturalized people, we will give them food, give them pottery, and build them houses, it's not cost-effective!" Now, we have made a lot of profit from them by trading with them! ”
An San glanced at the naturalized soldiers and said: "The timing is very important, maybe the chief has already planned, but he is just waiting for the opportunity, when he talks about the war, he often says that the time is right, the place and the people, I think other things are the same!" ”
Ashin nodded in agreement and said: "Timing is indeed very important, I have understood these days, the comparison of the strength of the tribes is likely to change in a short period of time, for example, the tribes that trade with us, they can already win the same number as their tribes, just because they have learned to make leather armor." ”
Lu Wan didn't understand these slightly advanced theories, he only said confidently: "No matter how strong they become, they can't be stronger than us!" ”
Ansan continued: "In fact, the most difficult thing is how to manage them, and the management that the chief has always emphasized, I think is to let more people together, so that they can have greater power." And this requires management, without management, it will be chaotic, but the power will be weakened! ”
Ashin thought so, and felt that Yasan had a very profound insight, just as Miko praised, this person's thinking was very advanced!
He also discussed the tribal problem with Ansan, and found that Ansan's thinking on warfare had also changed.
On the contrary, such an exchange allowed him to understand the impact of military strength on the regional situation, and some of the problems that plagued him were easily solved.
Ansan also felt the same way, and after listening to Ashin's diplomatic views and general explanation of the local situation, he also had a sense of enlightenment.
The two of them were eager to exchange views on all issues, and they didn't care at all about the bewildered words that Lu Wan uttered from time to time.
After walking for about half a day, they finally found the first nomadic tribe.
There were about twenty people in this tribe, and the only one who was a little stronger was their leader, and the only two women also belonged to this leader.
Ashin asks people to give them gifts and kindly informs them that he is Monabe.
Sure enough, after knowing that it was Monabu, these people's vigilance was greatly reduced.
Ashin also informed the purpose of the visit, expressed his hope that the tribe would be incorporated into Monabu, and said that he would have a wife, a house, and food to enter Monabu.
The leader refused, telling Ashin unless more food was delivered.
Ashin sighed and said to Ansan: "You do it!" I'm afraid that Lu Wan won't be able to stop killing him! ”
An San snorted, rushed over with a few soldiers, and understood the leader with a knife.
"Listen, we're Monabu! Now I give you a chance to join us, and after joining, no one will dare to hunt your heads! ”
"You will become naturalized people, and you can even fight with us, just like these people! After that, you will be paid for your work, you will have a house, you will have food, and you will have a wife! ”
"Now, if you are willing to follow us, follow us and eat meat together later! If you don't want to leave, these gifts will be left for you, enough for you to eat for a few days, but you have to leave early, the other tribes have been hunting you down! ”
After Ashin finished speaking, he stood for a while, and An San threw the bloody head aside, he was no longer obsessed with collecting skulls, just because he found that Yan Zheng didn't like collecting skulls.
After the tribesmen looked numbly for a while, some people began to walk out with their only possessions.
Ashin was satisfied and ordered the team to start again.
