Chapter 820 Take the initiative to attack
The Xuanniao Tribe's transformation from a small tribe into a medium tribe is through bloody expansion, and the same is true for the same from a medium tribe to a large tribe.
However, there are very different attitudes. From small tribes to medium tribes, Xuanniao basically fights back after being attacked and never takes the initiative to cause trouble. However, since leaving the mountainous area, the situation has been completely different. This is because Chen Kan suddenly wants to feel the feeling of taking the initiative.
To be honest, no matter which plane he was in before, Chen Kan rarely took the initiative to cause trouble to the other party. In the Captain America plane, Germany first provoked the war; in the Sword Rain plane, whether it was the King Kong Sect or the Oirat army, Chen Kan was a passive counterattack; in the Detective Di Renjie plane, the Snake Spirit and the Iron Hand Group took the initiative to cause trouble to Chen Kan.
There is no need to mention the Japanese community in the Republic of China plane; the Ming Dynasty plane, whether it is Cao Zhengchun or Zhu Wushi; the Fengyun plane is still the same, Rouran in the north actively attacked Chen Kancai and launched a self-defense counterattack. Xiongba, Jue Wushen, and Indra Shitian all came to him to make trouble.
Unless it is a task, Chen Kan rarely takes the initiative to cause trouble to the other party. This is the martial arts that Chen Kan has learned in the Huo Yuanjia plane. "Defense" is not not attacking, but taking defense as an offense.
Chen Kan, who has always been "defensive counterattack", for some reason, suddenly wanted to experience taking the initiative when he led the Xuanniao Tribe out of the mountains.
So a bloody storm broke out in this area. Before Chen Kan could digest the results of the victory of the previous war, he decisively launched a second war and brazenly attacked his previous ally, the Red Bird Tribe.
The strength of the Red Bird tribe lost nearly 500 people when it was conquered the Chenkan tribe. Then, the battle with the 5,000 tribe lost about 600 people, and thousands of young and middle-aged people lost. The strength of the tribe was greatly reduced.
Originally, the original intention of the Red Bird Tribe to find Chen Kan to join forces was to make the Xuanniao Tribe a cannon fodder and consume the opponent's strength. However, Chen Kan had already seen this clearly. When the battle started, the two tribes suffered a considerable loss, and each lost more than 600 soldiers in the battle.
Of course, this Xuanniao Tribe also suffered a lot, but it did not hurt the bones. Under Chen Kan's guidance, the tribe has a relatively complete reserve system and a relatively complete medical system. Although the soldiers of the Xuanniao Tribe also suffered losses, the combat effectiveness of the troops did not suffer much loss, and the Xuanniao Tribe was easily annexed.
In the next six months, Chen Kan stopped and rebuilt Xuanniao City on the basis of two conquered medium-sized tribes. He digested the proceeds of several battles and launched another annexation war before the beginning of winter. His opponent was another ally before.
Although this tribe is stronger than the Red Bird Tribe and has a low city wall as a protection, unfortunately, in front of the elite Xuanniao Tribe warriors, this tribe was defeated before it lasted for a long time.
In half a year, he annexed three medium-sized tribes, and there were no powerful opponents around him. Chen Kan spent another year to turn the Xuanniao tribe into a large tribe with a population of 6,000, and also built five small and two medium-sized affiliated tribes. The total number exceeded 12,000, and the number of slaves reached 50,000.
(In primitive and slave societies, it is normal for more slaves than residents. For example, Sparta has more than ten times the number of slaves.)
In this area, Chen Kan followed the idea of "those who follow me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish" and used various methods to eliminate all the forces in this area. Although some tribes formed alliances to fight against Chen Kan, unfortunately they did not make a difference. In the end, the entire area became the territory of the Xuanniao Tribe.
This suddenly rising Xuanniao tribe naturally caused uneasiness among several large tribes in the Bird Totem Tribe Alliance, or it should be said that they were dissatisfied with the challenger of this order, and almost broke out in conflict.
The reason why the conflict did not break out in the end was not because of the conscience of both sides, but because the Niu Totem Tribe Alliance, which was unsuccessful with the Bird Totem Tribe Alliance, took action against the Xuanniao Tribe.
The two large tribes of the Niu Totem Tribe Alliance attacked the Xuanniao Tribe. Both tribes are large tribes with a population of more than 10,000. The way of fighting in large tribes is completely different from that in small and medium-sized tribes. The other party dispatched eight thousand people, of which 7,000 were slaves. This is impossible to see in the war between small and medium-sized tribes, because small and medium-sized tribes cannot have so many slaves.
Moreover, in terms of weapons and equipment, they not only had stone spears and bows, but also weapons lacked by small and medium-sized tribes such as wooden shields and stone-catted ropes. Some bronze weapons also appeared. The formation of the army was also more neat and orderly, and it was obvious that they were veterans who had passed the war.
Whether in terms of number of people or equipment, large tribes are not comparable to small and medium-sized tribes. This is a huge gap in foundation.
Unfortunately, they came too late. If they had sent troops before Chen Kan had just arrived here, the Xuanniao Tribe might have retreated to the mountainous areas. But now, it was too late. Of course, this was when Chen Kan could not take action. If Chen Kan took action, 100,000 people would not be enough for Chen Kan to kill, so Chen Kan was almost always a bystander in the war.
Chen Kan took three thousand soldiers to fight, of which 2,500 were slaves. Although there was a huge gap in numbers between the two sides, the Xuanniao Tribe all had the upper hand in the quality of individual soldiers, the cooperation of military formations, and the weapons and protective gear. The final battle ended with the disastrous defeat of the Niu Totem Tribe coalition.
Of course, Chen Kan would not just let it go. It was not Chen Kan's style of being beaten. He regained 4,000 soldiers and raided for a long distance, directly attacking a large tribe. However, the large tribe was a large tribe after all, and it was difficult to destroy it. In the end, Chen Kan robbed more than 20,000 prisoners (including a large number of slaves) and took away a large amount of spoils to return to the base camp, which was a complete victory.
This battle established the position of the Xuanniao Tribe. No tribe dared to underestimate the strength of the Xuanniao Tribe, a latecomer. The large tribes that were originally going to trouble the Xuanniao Tribe have also stopped. The strength determines everything. The Xuanniao Tribe therefore became an important member of the Bird Totem Tribe Alliance and had a certain voice in the alliance.
