"Andrey!" The sturgeon and smoked fish screamed.

I saw that Maria's mother's body suddenly froze, and a bloody hole appeared on her forehead, and then she fell backwards.

Before she died, she probably wanted to struggle, and the dagger in her hand pulled on Andrei's neck, but at that time her arm was no longer obedient, so it was slashed on Andrei's shoulder.

Andrei stood still.

The sturgeon and smoked fish ran towards him and grabbed Andrei in his arms.

"Andrey!"

"Fisher? I am...... Still alive? ”

"You're alive, Andrey! You're alive! ”

Andrei looked ahead a little dazedly, as if he hadn't reacted yet.

"Andrey, you're still alive! Don't be afraid, Andrey! The turtledove is coming, the turtledove is coming! We are saved! Our good days have come! ”

Andrei didn't know who the turtledove was.

He didn't know what a 'good day' was.

He stood in the arms of the sturgeon and the smoked fish for a long time before he said softly, "Fisher, I want to go home......"

……

Turtledove never thought of accepting threats from others.

Hostage?

Perhaps in future battles, there will be countless opportunities, and he will face the same situation as today.

The coldness of reality has already cooled his heart.

Again and again he pinned good hopes on whites, but, never, at once, his hopes were fulfilled.

This time, even if he didn't shoot, would the nun really do what she said she said and let André go?

No, it won't!

She's only going to have to ask for more.

If a chip is useful, it will be used all the time.

So today, even if Turtledove is not a sharpshooter, he will shoot today. Even if the hostage wasn't Andrey, but someone else, he would have shot.

Negotiation?

There is only one kind of negotiation with white people - Scott-style negotiation! Only when the other side has to do what they tell them to do is the only suitable time to negotiate.

It's just that God gave him a 'golden finger' in the end, so that he avoided falling into a difficult choice.

"Alright, rest! Alert to the vigilance, go to rest when it is time to rest! Everybody's tired! ”

Turtledove handed the gun to the peso and said softly, "Waterwheel, peso, giant hard, red cloud, come for a meeting!" ”

The turtledove walked towards the door, and when he reached the door, he seemed to remember something, "Sturgeon, you come too!" ”

"Turtledove, my name is Sturgeon and Smoked Fish!"

The turtledove was stunned for a moment and nodded silently.

……

This time, the turtle doves did not come to Monte Blanca solely to save sturgeons and smoked fish.

If it was only for such a purpose, there was no need for him to come himself.

The current turtledove is a big chief with three legions and a tribe of up to 10,000 people.

In the forests of the Sierra Madre, the turtledove tribe ushered in true peace. Not only did the Indians in the mountains and forests cling to them, but even the whites outside the mountains stopped attacking Mount Madre.

Even Anderson didn't expect that when he followed Chief Tree in the past, he had begged the white people for 'peace' countless times, and signed one treaty after another, but 'peace' never really came.

On the contrary, it was the turtledove tribe that killed the white army outside the mountain, and the heads were rolling, but it was 'peaceful'!

This is ridiculous!

The white army outside the mountain completely sealed off the Madre mountain forest, and the center of the Blanca Mountain, where the turtledove tribe is located, almost surrounded by an iron bucket.

Don't say that supplies such as cotton and food will be shot down by the gunmen of the white army even if it flies into the sky.

In this case, the 'peace' of the turtledove tribe seems even more cold and difficult.

Fortunately, the Rio Grande Trading Company had a good solution, and the trade route was not completely severed. Although it is said that an Indian who has worked hard to roll tobacco leaves for a month can only exchange them for a pair of pants outside the mountain. But the tribesmen finally still have pants to wear.

Needless to say, ordinary clansmen, even banner owners such as Parrot and Yanba, and even army commanders such as Geronimo and Fifteen Dollars, had a daily food quota of only two tortillas.

This is thanks to the fact that last year, the smoke man's big mulberry field achieved a bumper harvest. If it weren't for that, a huge turtledove tribe wouldn't even have a trading item to get their hands on.

At this time, the parrot and the others waited even more, and they admired the turtledove even more in their hearts, and their eyes were forward, and they were thinking far-reaching.

It seems that from the very beginning when the tribe settled on Monte Blanca, the turtledove had anticipated today's difficult situation.

……

As the tribe grows, there are naturally a lot more things to do.

In this case, schools, hospitals and other public facilities have been built one after another.

Although the teachers come from various tribes and use a variety of languages, the principles of survival they teach are always the same, and the logic of mathematics is the same.

The Apache math is 1+1=2, and with the Navajos, 1+1 equals 3!

I don't know which old priest from the destroyed tribe came forward, and Yi Yi babbled in the language class to tell myths and stories that had been spread beyond recognition. The children liked it very much, and each child heard a different version of the same story, which made their quarrel very interesting, a bit similar to the feeling of 'who is more powerful Zhang Fei or Yue Fei'.

Previously, everyone was worried that if there were too many tribesmen, language communication would become a big problem.

But when the tribe really got bigger, everyone found that the language problem was not that big.

Everyone was hungry, and all they said was nothing more than eating, drinking, and Lazar, and a few simple words "Abba Aba" were completely sufficient.

As time passed, the languages of the north and the south began to merge, and it was not uncommon to hear a person speaking Apache in one sentence and Kiowa in the next.

In short, such a thing as language, with the current situation of the turtledove tribe that can only meet the basic needs of survival, is not at all qualified to consider such a high-level problem.

……

As for the hospital, it basically follows the policy of 'breaking away': cut off the hand with pain, cut off the foot with pain!

Mo said that the Indian tribes at this time were the white world known as 'civilization', and they basically followed this policy at this time.

The transformation of traditional empirical medicine to modern medicine still needs a long process, Pasteur, the founder of microbiology, was still in secondary school at this time, the discovery of penicillin was still about a hundred years away, the European continent was helplessly praying to the gods under the threat of 'cholera', and Pfizer sold soap and explosives at the same time.

Two hundred years later, people became accustomed to the red and blue revolving lampposts in front of barbershops, but in the mid-19th century, this meant that barbers often performed surgery part-time. Anyway, they are all the same set of equipment, washing, scissors, blowing, and chopping services, which can give patients the most intimate care!

Witchcraft and herbs are a major feature of tribal hospitals, and turtledoves are not completely banned. It's just that he never believed it.

Under his leadership, the people of the tribe, who have a little status, like to carry it hard once they get sick, otherwise they will be looked down upon.

I really can't bear it, so I will find some herbs to eat.

As for witchcraft, it represents cowardice, it represents surrender to death. The average person would rather die than go to a witch doctor.

Therefore, the hospital business of the turtledove tribe is very bad.

……

It's a blockaded tribe with an absurd and self-satisfied vibe all over it.

The price of peace is hunger and barrenness; The price of freedom is blockade and isolation.

While the tribe is thriving, it is struggling on the line of death.

It was in such a ridiculous period that Turtledove left his home, handed over the tribe to Lotzen and fifteen dollars, and took only his Tonatius legion, to the strange Mount Braque, the territory of a Sioux people!
