Chapter 240 Challenge
The little witch returned and brought back four Ba tribe leaders who had already held Xu Chen's thighs.
With Xu Chen's support, the Wu tribe leader and all the family leaders finally sat together again to hold a tribal meeting to decide and distribute the rights of the copper mine.
Although the four tribe leaders were a little unhappy about Xu Chen's proposal, no one opposed it. They just sarcastically said a few words to the Wu tribe leader and other leaders, saying that everything would be followed by Xu Chen's arrangements.
In fact, they have always been a little worried that without the support of the Wu tribe leader, there are some problems with copper mining. Even if it is not reflected now, it will still inspire conflicts in the future.
After all, the benefits brought by copper mines are too great. The hundreds of pieces of pottery are brought back every month, which is now very jealous, resulting in the tension of ethnic relations. It may also cause greater chaos in the tribe.
Although Xu Chen supports them, if you really want to keep this huge copper mine wealth, unity within the Wu tribe is very important. After all, the Wu tribe is still a whole. The Wu tribe is still in the dominant position of the tribe in terms of law and heritage. Without her support, many things will not go smoothly.
Under the current situation of serious shortage of manpower and food, only a strong and united Wu tribe can provide strong enough support for the mining of copper ore so that it can continue to develop and grow smoothly.
Xu Chen was actually waiting for the Wu tribe leader to admit defeat.
But he didn't expect them to admit defeat so quickly.
According to Xu Chen's idea, there might be a large-scale chaos within the Wu tribe due to copper mining. He used the excuse of quelling the chaos to forcibly suppress the conflicts within the Wu tribe, replaced the patriarch and even expelled some families, and then completely controlled the Wu tribe.
But now it seems that these primitive people's way of thinking is much simpler than he thought.
They didn't want to fight in the internal struggle, and the overall overall situation of the Wu tribe leader was still good. After seeing that Xu Chen's power was completely unable to resist, they directly surrendered.
It is best to resolve nature peacefully without war.
To be honest, he didn't want serious casualties to occur in the Wu tribe's nest.
Although he was constantly sowing discord in the middle, his heart was actually contradictory.
Because of the leader of the Wu tribe's defeat, his plan to mine and smelve a one-stop copper mine base in the Wu tribe finally has a mature solution.
The mining rights were still handed over to the four tribes at present, but the copper ore was not transported directly to the Ba tribe, but was smelted and processed locally in the Wu tribe. Several other tribes were responsible for smelting, and the Wu tribe's clan leader was responsible for central coordination. The Ba tribe finally redeems pottery and other items needed by the Wu tribe according to the copper output. As for the distribution of these interests, Xu Chen did not participate in the discussion and decided by the Wu tribe's internal discussion.
Both parties were very satisfied with Xu Chen's proposal, so under the auspices of the little witch, the two leaders quarreled back and forth for half an hour, and finally reached an agreement. The interests were divided into 55% and the four families with mining rights received half of the profits, and the other families received the other half of the profits, so everyone was happy.
After experiencing a turbulent situation that was almost split, the Ukrainian tribe once again reached a unified consensus.
However, this consensus is based on a new way of distribution of interests, breaking away from the old tradition of fair distribution in the past, and is almost a joint venture development model.
The contradiction still exists, but it is temporarily covered up by common interests.
By the time the interests of copper mine development and smelting gradually expand in the future, this contradiction may erupt again.
But by that time, Xu Chen no longer needed to take into account the emotions and expressions of the Wu people. He might nationalize the copper mine, and the Wu people would at most become a new chaebol force.
...
The slight drizzle flutters under the warm spring breeze.
Two majestic and neat teams were holding a grand competition on the river beach where green grass was blooming with flowers.
Leading by the green Ba snake flag of the Ba people and the black bird-shaped flag of the Wu people, accompanied by the sound of horns, the two teams held a unique military competition on the river beach.
The first is step training.
Both sides each set up a team of forty people, lined up, reported numbers, walked in stairs, and sprinted at a short distance.
The footsteps of the tap are extremely neat, and all the prescribed movements are meticulously completed with the command and horn.
Judging from the performance, the movements and discipline of the Ba people are obviously stronger than that of the Wu people.
Next is the regular equipment training performance of both sides, long-distance spearheading for spearmen, medium- and long-distance coverage and strikes for archers.
It can be clearly seen in this performance that the Wu tribe performed more prominently because of its large population. Without paying much attention to discipline and formation, the forty young and strong hunters selected by the Wu tribe are more aggressive, and the gun power and distance are obviously stronger than that of the Ba tribe, and it looks more lethal.
As for bows and arrows, because the Wu tribe has very few equipment and the quality of bows and arrows is far inferior to that of the Ba tribe, all this Ba tribe still has a great advantage, but in time, the advantages of the Wu tribe will still be gradually reflected.
After the team drill, both sides chose several of the most powerful hunters to perform individual competitions. In terms of gun pitching distance and accuracy, the Ukrainian tribe still had the upper hand, but in the competition of bow and arrow shooting for the straw man, the Ba tribe still had the upper hand.
The final part was an offensive and defensive performance between both sides.
However, only spearmen participated. In order to prevent injuries from performing, both sides used long sticks. In this performance, the Ba people had the upper hand.
After a long period of cooperation and practice, the Ba tribe is much better than the Wu tribe in terms of formation and discipline. Faced with the Wu tribe team that was not trained enough, the Ba tribe quickly defeated the Wu tribe with strong discipline and strict cooperation.
This is just a simple performance competition.
However, the Ba tribe, which is weak in both physical and strength, is actually stronger, which makes a large number of onlookers convinced. At the same time, it also has a deeper understanding of this training that strictly requires offensive and defensive formation and discipline.
After the training performance, Xu Chen presented officer waist cards and armor bows to Long and the three last appointed training commanders, expressing his formal recognition of their training results during this period.
After getting these things, the four guys stuttered excitedly, took off their fur on the spot, put on their armor with the help of a group of hunters, put on their backs, hung up waist signs, and tied black forehead bands with the Uk tribe logo. So four tribal generals with the temperament of the battlefield came out in a hot pot.
Seeing the heroic aura of several leaders wearing armor, all the Wu tribe hunters were jealous.
Especially a group of old hunters and warrior teams who have always followed the Uk tribe's patriarch were even more jealous and sad.
"Lei, Zhanga!"
Two meters tall and wearing double armor, the dragon who was two layers of armor, raised his hand and pointed at a hunter who was also like a hairy bear among the onlookers.
"Wow~~"
The crowd was filled with a violent commotion, and then a guy who was afraid of being confused waved his fists and shouted: "Zhan Ga!"
"Zhan Ga, Zhan Ga!"
Many Wu tribe hunters who came to their senses were yelling in agitation.
Especially a group of new generation hunters who follow the dragon on weekdays screamed even more excitedly.
As the most powerful old warrior, Lei has always been an idol worshipped by tribal men and the leader of the tribal hunting team.
But since the dragon slowly rose and won the title of Warrior at the witch convention in the fall of the previous year, it has also been followed by a large group of young hunters.
Male animals are always respected by strength, and humans show it more clearly. Braves are always the objects of worship, especially in this era when power can only survive.
There is no first in literature and no second in martial arts.
In any ethnic group, there can only be one of the most powerful leaders.
Especially when the primitive and barbaric battle for mating rights is still in the situation, this kind of struggle seems even more intense.
The battle between dragon and thunder is actually a conflict and battle between the younger generation of hunters and the older generation of hunters.
Because only by defeating these old hunters can these new generations obtain a wider mating right and dominate the tribe's hunting arrangements and food distribution.
Faced with Long's demonstration and provocation, Lei hesitated for a moment and walked out.
Although he was not at all timid, his face looked ugly.
He has always been the hunter force that supports the leader of the Wu tribe the most, but as the leader gradually fell at a disadvantage in the fight with Xu Chen, he has gradually become quiet recently.
He knew that sooner or later there would be a battle between him and the dragon, and to complete the alternation of the new and old hunters forces of the tribe in a way that determines the outcome.
This is both an original and ancient tradition and an inevitable thing for tribal development.
At the beginning, he also successfully challenged a senior warrior and became the leader of the Wu tribe hunter.
Seven or eight years have passed since that battle.
The warrior who failed in the fight also died shortly after being injured.
This is not only an alternation between the old and new tribe forces, but also a cruel reality that tribe men have to endure in order to maintain their strong combat power.
Even the U tribe leader cannot stop this kind of challenge.
In other words, today he and Long will inevitably decide the winner.
If he wins, he has the right to kill the dragon, continue to serve as the hunter leader, and continue to occupy the priority mating rights of tribal adult women.
But if he loses, the outcome of the senior warriors may be his outcome, and their destination is in the woods that sacrifice the Old Mother's Day not far away.
Of course, he can also choose to give in directly, and then lead his family and follow the hunter to leave the tribe, find new habitats and build new tribes.
This is how the wooden tooth tribe split before.
But that kind of situation rarely happens because if you choose to surrender, you will generally be despised by your tribe members, especially men, and rarely follow them.
A tribe without a certain number of men will end up in a very miserable way and may die soon.
Although the Muya tribe finally survived successfully, its status was very low in the six tribe alliance, even the Ba tribe was inferior to that of the Wu tribe. The Wu tribe never gave them a good face.
