From Chief to Ball

When going out, those tribes also sent out men as supply soldiers, and they did not have the right to be combat soldiers.

Usually, they also need to undertake corvee labor such as dredging rivers and ramming city walls, so as not to affect their normal planting as much as possible, but they cannot have enough time to develop handicrafts.

Accordingly, they were treated as sinful kinsmen, not slaves.They have the right to worship their ancestors, have the right to trade and exchange, and are eligible to share the guidance and protection of their ancestors. There will be corresponding people to teach them about planting, and even give them some wine, pottery, tools and stuff like that.The army also needs to protect them from the intrusion and attack of foreign races.

If the territory expands in a few years, they can also prove their loyalty and have equal rights with the current [-] tribes, but they can't do it now, and they have to rely on their children to know their shame and be brave.

Villages will be used as cities in the future. The tribesmen in the cities will have political rights, and there will be handicrafts in the cities. The combat troops will also be selected from the residents of the cities, and the cities will be the center of the jurisdiction, so as to control the range of hundreds of miles.

There was basically no objection to this opinion. Several leaders wanted to use these people as slaves to reclaim the land, but Chen Jian vetoed it. Those tribes would definitely be the basis of the tribal alliance in the future.

After discussing all this, we decided to set off tomorrow. This time, we don't need to bring too many people, leaving some in the village to prevent emergencies, and those who go will have an armed parade.

The leaders of the fifteen councils must follow and denounce their betrayal to show that this is the common will of everyone.

Chapter 26 Famous Teachers

Three days later, a path that had just been trodden extended towards the jungle with few people. A few chipmunks hid in the tree holes, watching curiously the advancing crowd.

The few people in the front were chopping some dwarf bushes with stone axes to clear the way for the people behind. There were also people riding horned deer hundreds of steps away on both sides of the team, guarding against possible attacks.

The weather was getting a bit cold, Chen Jian rode on the white horned deer, covered with a piece of sheepskin, from time to time put the hand holding the rein to his mouth and breathed out.

The older chiefs sat on the grass sledges, covered with thick furs, and occasionally unplugged the wooden gourds, drinking a few sips of wine to warm their lower bodies.

Several scouts bypassed the advancing team and came to Chen Jianjian's side. They also rode a few horned deer.

"Jian, there is a tribe in front, and the wolf skin is watching there. Those people didn't notice us, they were catching fish in the river."

"Go and tell Acorn to lead his men to the upper reaches of the river, and arrest all who escaped."

The scout agreed, put his legs between his legs and ran to the front of the line, passing the order down.

Chen Jian jumped off the horned deer, stopping the team for a while. He sat down for a rest, smashed some walnuts or picked some persimmons still hanging on the trees to eat.

For this march, he intentionally asked the scouts to send orders to see if the selected people could be alone.

In fact, attacking such a tribe doesn't need to be so troublesome, but they deliberately tossed them, and the scouts on both sides were also sent two miles away.

Finally, when Acorn's scout came back, it proved that Acorn had brought 25 people to the upper reaches of the river.

Chen Jian jumped on the horned deer and led the team to the hiding place of the wolf fur, which was about a mile away from those who were fishing.

From a distance, those people fished in the river for a while and then went ashore to roast by the fire. Going to the river to fish in such weather would definitely cause cramps.I guess I couldn't stand eating acorns, so I chose to fish in such a cold day.

"The baggage team stays, and the rest put on wicker armor and march forward with drums!"

With a shout, someone immediately brought out the war drum. The soldiers put down the wicker baskets they were carrying, took out their simple armor from inside and put them on, and stood in line under the urging of several people.

Those who were fishing in the river heard the movement here, stopped their work, and looked into the woods. Some of them even held the stone spears on the bank.

dong dong dong...

The drums were beating, and with a simultaneous cry the soldiers marched out of the woods in formation, startling those by the river.

A clansman held high a black and white flag and stood at the far left of the team. Chen Jian rode a horned deer at the back of the team, and two people played drums specially.

When the people by the river saw the black and white flag, they dropped the fish in their hands in panic, and ran to the nearby cave, yelling something while running.

Chen Jian took a closer look and found that their hair was still tied up, so he still smiled.

After a while, a group of people came out of the cave in a panic, holding bows and arrows or slings, and looked uneasily at the seemingly unshakable soldiers in the distance. Than.

Some people stared at the horned deer in fear. They had never seen such tall animals, let alone people riding on them.

"What are they doing?"

A clansman picked up a bow and arrow, was grabbed by the leader Osprey and shouted: "Do you want to die?"

She knew very well that her clansmen were no match for these people, but she just didn't expect that the other party would come in this way, let alone that Chen Jian's clansmen were so neatly dressed, and every time the sound of drumming made them feel Her heart was beating wildly.

After changing back to the fishing hook last time, she was not prepared to let her clansmen go at all.It's very simple, if Chen Jian and those tribes can't fight, his tribe will die if he goes, and his tribe will also migrate.It would be the best if he had fought. Jian is a good person. He taught his tribe a lot of ways to survive, and he didn't ask for anything.

She thinks that Jian is like the persimmon tree at the entrance of the cave, which provides shade in summer, bears fruit in autumn, and drops branches to light them in winter. It is very good, not even a single thorn, no matter how much you pick It won't get stuck either.

But now she realized that she was wrong. This person was not what she thought at all, nor was she like a child who had just grown up.He's a bad wolf, and now he's showing his teeth!

The sound of drums in the distance continued, and those people were getting closer and closer. Some archers came out to the front of the team, apparently preparing to shoot arrows.

Osprey felt that his tongue was a little dry, and he turned around and shouted, "Put down your bows and slings! Put down!"

"But……"

"lay down!"

The clansmen had never heard such a stern tone from the patriarch, and they threw down their bows and arrows one after another. Osprey sighed, stretched out his hand to pull his hair, and walked forward alone.

The drum beat stopped, Chen Jian jumped off the horned deer, and the fourteen leaders behind the team also stood up together. Osprey was startled, not expecting them to come too.

Chen Jian walked to the front of the team, the clansman holding the flag followed behind, and the rest of the leaders also moved forward.

"Osprey, the last oath, your tribe should have people, why didn't I see your people? I gave you a fishhook, and you swore that you would come, tell me, where are your people?"

Osprey took a deep breath, a little afraid to face the child in her eyes, especially after seeing those leaders, his face finally turned red.

Chen Jian turned around and loudly asked the soldiers behind him, "Tell the Osprey leader the results of our last battle!"

Hundreds of voices shouted in unison: "On the 22nd day of Fruity Moon, kill 83 people and capture a hundred people! Die 32, big victory!"

After shouting, the drums thumped, as if to let God know the result of that great victory.

Osprey panicked inexplicably. In her opinion, this is an incredible result. Capturing a hundred people, killing 83... 32 of them died?How was the battle fought?

While panicking, I was also a little lucky in my heart. Fortunately for my decision just now, if I hadn't let the people put down their bows, arrows and slings, these people might have killed all of their people in an instant.

At this moment, the sound of the drums stopped, and the wolf skin rode a horned deer and rushed to the Osprey, holding a stone spear in his hand.

A dry, purple-black head stained with lime was strung on the stone spear, swaggering around in front of the trembling clansmen, holding the stone spear high and shouting: "This is their leader! Now, he is dead! Anyone who dares to be our enemy will die."

When Osprey heard this, his legs felt a little weak. Could it be that Chen Jian wanted to kill himself?

Chen Jian raised his head and shouted loudly: "When Xingzi was yellow, you didn't have bows and arrows. In order to make us live better, our ancestors guided me to make bows and arrows. I gave them to you. How many prey did you kill with bows and arrows?"

The Osprey's head drooped even lower, and the sound of flags whistling beside its ears made it even more uneasy.

Chen Jian's words also reached the ears of those tribesmen. They knew the importance of bows and arrows to their tribe, and also knew how much prey this bows and arrows allowed them to harvest.

Chen Jian then shouted: "You don't have clay pots and bowls. I asked you to exchange them with stones. Tell me, what use are stones for us? You don't know how to fish. I will tell you how to fish. Tell me, you How much did you eat? You don’t have wicker baskets, I’ll tell you how to weave them, tell me, how many more acorns can you pick up?”
