Chapter II
There are hundreds of tribes in the Dream Relic Continent, and the heroes are together, but they can all see the figure of human beings. Now more than 60% of the space of the entire Dream Relic Continent is human, and the elves, dwarves, orcs and other intelligent races only occupy less than 30% of the continent, and even many island groups that originally belonged to the Sea Clan have been occupied by some small human countries.
The northern wasteland, where Hannibal is located, is a place where birds don't have a paper to wipe their butts after pooping.
The inhabitants here are mainly humans and orcs, but don't get me wrong, Hannibal is not the same as those sissies in the western part of the continent, the people here in the wasteland, call themselves barbarians, believe in the god of war, the sect is shamanism, and other creatures on the continent call them barbarians. It is said that it did not evolve from one race! The two sides often have wars, and this is the nature of human beings, who like to fight among themselves!
Most of them are nomadic people, who live in no fixed place, chasing the fertile meadows, driving large areas of cattle, sheep, horses, and camels around!
They were very hospitable, and the stranger came to his tent, and brought out the fattest mutton and the purest mare's milk, and as long as he did not sleep with his woman, he could do anything!,
They are very bold and simple, they never ask for anything too much, as long as they are optimistic about their cattle, sheep and women, and sing to the stars, moons and eagles and wolves every day, they will be content.
They were also cruel, and if they thought the other was an enemy, all men (boys) taller than the wheels of a carriage were killed, and women and children were left as slaves.
They are more courageous, nomads are born cavalry, slashing and charging are survival skills that every adult in the wasteland must master, riding on horses, with swords and spears in their hands, when they charge, they have no reason to stop unless they are in front of their relatives and lords.
They are very backward, they can't make their own salt, they can't make their own clothes, and they can't forge steel............ Wok. Many soldiers threw away their precious stones and gold utensils and picked up steel woks! Most of the weapons were captured, and even appeared, a family only had one saber, and when the grandfather ran out, he sharpened it for his father, and when his father ran out, he sharpened it for his grandson, but the saber was sharpened when it reached his grandchildren, and the length could only be used to remove the corns.
They are savage, they are very direct, and anyone who has a disagreement over anything can make sense and cannot make sense, well, take a whip and point it at the other side - a duel! kill the other in a duel, never be punished! Even the nobles have no power to hold them accountable.
They are very ignorant and stubborn, and they only know how to obey the orders of the superior family master. Many things admit death, and one way to the dark (that is, the table that drinks and lacks a string!).
They are very fair, even if the slave kills a hundred enemies, he can use a dagger to mark the identity of the slave on his face in the presence of everyone, and slowly cut off the slave's identity with a knife to become one of them, and no one takes more loot, according to the status level, but the status level is linked to the merits of the war, so it is to kill more and give more, kill more and take more!
Their diet is also peculiar, the staple food is meat, supplemented by potatoes or vegetables, and the drink is always alcohol, children start drinking at the age of 8, which is allowed at the age of 6. Later, it was changed to 8 years old by the current Da Dan Yu, mainly because the children raised in this way will not retreat when they start a war, they never eat bread or other staple foods, so although the proportion of fatty liver and alcoholic liver patients is quite high, they are tall and muscular, although they will not use fighting spirit and magic, but they also have a fight with the western Yankees with their courage and stupidity!
Children who grow up in this environment can only be described in two imposing words........................................................................ Silly short!
Most of the human beings in the wasteland are tribal management mode, when it comes to war, Da Dan Yu (equivalent to the king) informs the iron hat kings (generally the brothers of Da Dan Yu) in various places, and the iron hat kings then convene a meeting of the banner owners under their rule, (the flag lord generally has a territory of 100,000 households) The flag lord then goes to inform the Wan Hu Hou (the great nobles with a population of 10,000 households under the command of Wan Hu Hou), and the Wan Hu Hou then goes to inform the tribal patriarch, an ordinary tribe has 2,000 households, and the string control (soldiers) must have at least 2000 (each family must produce one, and 14 years old can join the army), a large tribe has 20 small villages, 100 households per village, set up the village chief, also known as the centurion, and then the village chief went door-to-door to inform the strong men and war horses and weapons to follow the master to fight.
This backward military mobilization mechanism has been used for hundreds of years, and its efficiency is extremely slow, and it is often when the army is gathered and half of the battle is fought, and this point is seen through by the sinister and despicable westerners, who often go to war without declaring war, and the people of the god of war who are brave and good at fighting and are not afraid of death are caught off guard, but no one dares to reform! Because the general family unit only obeys the orders of the lord, if you carry out reforms, then those ten thousand family marquis and even the patriarch who are based on family and blood will rebel.
This kind of feudal system can also be implemented in the wasteland where promises are promised, and each patriarch swears allegiance to the marquis of ten thousand households, each marquis of ten thousand households swears allegiance to the banner lord, each banner lord swears allegiance to the princes, and finally the princes swear allegiance to Da Danyu. More than 10 generations of big orders have come down, but they are all right! If this backward integrated military and civilian management model were to be in the western region, which is known for its deception and ignorance of its despicability, I believe that the emperor would not know how many times it has changed?
What I just said was just to issue an order, gather the army, and even more grinding, and the strong men of each household finished explaining the housework, rode horses, took sabers and leather armor, and gathered at the village chief's house, and the village chief waited for the waves of people to come, counted the number of people, and then rushed to the tribe, and then the tribal patriarch again and again gathered the village chief, and then went straight to the royal court where Da Danyu was located, the golden tent!
The hierarchy of the northern wasteland: slaves - commoners - centurion (village chief) - patriarch - marquis of ten thousand households - banner lord - iron hat king - Da Danyu and his immediate family, these are both official and military positions, and they are layered on top of each other when fighting.
In addition, Da Dan can also temporarily appoint 6 people in wartime -- equal temporary supreme military positions, namely the left and right Xian Wang, the left and right Rizhu Wang, and the left and right Gu Li (li) king (copied from the Xiongnu)! These six temporary titles are higher than the Iron Hat King in wartime, second only to Da Danyu, and the nomads are very simple to have these official positions! Of course, the wasteland is so big, and there are so many branches of the nomads, there are still some differences!
There are four large countries in the wasteland, Vikings, Xiongnu and Turkic, Saxons, and small countries such as Carthage, Inurong, Wuhuan, Tatar, Rouran, Xianbei, etc., as well as some small tribes and nomads who have not established a state, and a few orc empires that are not too small. It is called the northern part of the continent and is synonymous with cold and desolate.
Hannibal's country is the Vikings, which is a nation that has passed down a lot of barbaric customs, and when a man reaches the age of 14, he has to light a bonfire in front of all his parents and friends at night, burn the dagger on his waist red, in front of the big guy, and then cut off his foreskin little by little, and the whole process is not allowed to shout or **. This is circumcision, and a man is considered to be an adult only after this step.
Hannibal has not yet been cut、、、、、、、、
Hannibal rode the white horse, which he had washed three times and had washed half of the well before it had been washed completely, and set out in the direction of the village chief.
Hannibal is 1.82 meters tall, his skin is rough by the winds of the wasteland because of long-term grazing, his face is not very handsome, only middle-to-upper, he looks tough but still slightly childish, and his chin and lips have begun to grow sparse stubble. It can add a lot of masculinity, his hairstyle is the traditional hairstyle of the nomads, the long hair of the shawl, strands of braid are braided into thumb-thick braids, and he gallops on a horse, which also looks very rough.
The only fly in the ointment is that the white horse under Hannibal's crotch is too thin, skinny, and his bladder may not be good when he is old, and he has to stop and pee every kilometer he runs!
Hannibal's house was the farthest family from the village chief's house, and he rode for two whole days to reach the village chief's house, and he blamed the old horse.
From a distance, Hannibal saw more than a hundred big men standing outside the village chief's tent, their leather armor of different colors and styles, their weapons were also strange, and their horses were of all colors and varieties.
When Hannibal was about 400 meters away from the tent, he unloaded the iron-tired bow from his back with his left hand, drew a wolf's tooth arrow from the quiver on the side of the saddle with his right hand, and shouted: "Pay!"
Hannibal wanted to follow the example of the knight who went to his house to issue the summoning order, and reined in his horse, and the man stood up, and it was good that the horse could barely stand on all four feet.
An arrow shot to the top of the tent of the village chief's house, where it has been densely filled with no less than 100 arrows, this is the tradition of the Vikings, greater than or equal to the nobles above the banner owner to gather the people under their command, each person to the top of the village chief's tent to shoot an arrow, that arrow is the knight who went to gather to shoot on the top of the tent, after four days, the village chief began to count the arrows on the top of the tent, who did not come, the village chief led the knights who had been gathered, to kill the family that did not come, the family will be destroyed, all the men above the wheel will be killed, the women will become slaves, for people to ravage at will。 All his property, herds of cattle, sheep, horses, and the village chief got half, and the others were divided equally.
This was a very strict matter, so from the moment Hannibal set out, he did not delay for a moment, he knew that he was far away, and if something happened along the way, the old man's family would be killed by him.
