In fact, many ancient tribes in this wilderness area may be more or less related to the Ba country many years ago, such as the Lu tribe. When the ancestors of the Ba country entered Ba Yuan, the ancestors of the Lu tribe were recruited to join in opening up roads.
His name was Wu Ding, and later generations called him Lu Wu Ding. Later, Lu Wu Ding also returned to the tribe in the mountains and brought back a lot of things and knowledge. His descendants took Lu as their surname, and only then did they have the name Lu.
The increasingly prosperous road village.
After a long period of war, all the five countries in Bayuan need to recuperate and are unable to launch any more large-scale national wars. Therefore, Bayuan has been relatively quiet in recent decades, with only occasional small-scale conflicts. But decades have passed.
Having regained their strength, some people in each country began to become restless again, plotting to defeat and capture other countries.
The distinguished guest who arrived at Youyu Village is from one of the Five Countries. This country happens to be adjacent to this wilderness, and the road out of the mountains leads there. Of course, they also call themselves Ba Country. Of course, this distinguished guest is not an ordinary one.
The traders were the king's envoys, specially coming to inquire about the situation in this wilderness.
Since the monarch was ambitious, of course he had to gather all kinds of forces at his disposal, so he also thought of the various tribes in the wilderness that the country of Ba belonged to in the past. The monarch knew about the existence of the Qingshui clan, and he also knew that there were all kinds of strange people in the various tribes in the wilderness.
There are many warriors who are strong and good at fighting. Of course, such power cannot be used by others. Even if it is not convenient to recruit them on a large scale, it is good to be their nominal subordinates and as a potential reserve force.
The monarch also vaguely heard about the fall of the Qingshui clan. In recent years, traders have entered the wilderness and brought back a lot of news. So he also wanted to find out the exact situation, so he sent an envoy to lead a caravan into the mountains.
.The envoy met the Youyu clan and asked about the recent situation in this wilderness, so he decided that there was no need to go deeper.
The envoy's goal has been achieved. He has met the most powerful tribe here. There is no need to go further. Moreover, he is not used to dealing with wild people in the mountains. The road in this wilderness is too difficult and dangerous, so he returned to Ba Yuan to resume his life.
And left a message that he will come again.
This envoy came with a mission. From his point of view, he certainly supported the respectful Yuyu tribe to lead the tribes in the wilderness, and then became a stable vassal of the Ba Kingdom. In the future, he could recruit warriors from various tribes to serve in Ba Yuan. But there are
The top leaders of Yucun know very well that if they want to subdue the various tribes in the wilderness to obey their orders, the biggest obstacle they will face is the alliance formed by Lucun and Huahai Village.
Their original ambitions were abandoned before they could be extended, but the arrival of the monarch's envoy gave them hope again. So Yuliang took the initiative to ask for help, led a hunting team composed of elite warriors, and announced to the clan that he would go to high places.
Hunting rhinoceros beasts in the deep mountains. In fact, hunting rhinoceros beasts is just a name. There are some things that even ordinary tribesmen cannot know for the time being, otherwise the news will inevitably leak out.
The main purpose of Yuliang gathering such an elite team into the mountains is of course not to fight the Xiqu herd, but to find out the details of Huahai Village and Lu Village and collect important intelligence to formulate future attacks.
cutting plan.
The senior officials of Youyu Village also believe that in order to make Lu Village surrender, they must first break the alliance between Lu Village and Huahai Village. It is best to choose the relatively weak Huahai Village to attack first, so that everyone can see the fate of Huahai Village and others.
From now on, I no longer dare to follow Lu Village to cause trouble. The biggest obstacles to launching large-scale offensive operations in the wilderness are that the distance is too far, the road is too dangerous, and we do not understand each other's situation.
Yuliang led a team into the mountains in the name of hunting Xiqu. He wanted to find out the topography of Huahai Village, the roads in and out, the daily routine of the tribesmen, when the hunting team went out, when the village was most empty, etc.
There is another situation that needs to be considered. Now there is a bridge on the cliff, and Lu Village is not far from Huahai Village. When dealing with Huahai Village, we must be prepared for assistance from Lu Village.
Therefore, Yuliang also needs to observe and collect information about Lu Village. In his vision, if he wants to raid Huahai Village in the future, he must choose a time when both Lu Village and Huahai Village are the most empty, and the best time is midnight.
There is a cliff and deep ravine between Lu Village and Huahai Village. After passing the deep ravine in Chulu Village and walking upward for more than three miles, and then crossing a ridge, you can see Huahai Village on the coast of Huahai. In the middle of the night, all the tribesmen were asleep, so far away
You are so far away that you can't hear the sound from the other side. If you make a sudden move, no one will be able to guard against it. You must do it cleanly and without leaving any further trouble.
The destruction of the Qingshui clan is still unknown, but it has also given Youyu Village an inspiration. If a sudden attack is launched late at night, a tribe can be destroyed if it is well prepared. It is possible to destroy Huahai Village unexpectedly.
So we can gather a hundred warriors, which is the largest expeditionary force that Youyu Village can currently use.
As long as it succeeds, we can use Huahai Village as a stronghold and take the opportunity to kill the tribesmen who return to Huahai Village without knowing it. Even those who happen to come and walk in Lu Village will be killed in one fell swoop, and then leave quickly. As long as Huahai Village is destroyed
, it will be difficult for Lu Village to compete with Youyu Village on its own, and other tribes will also be frightened. Youyu Village can achieve its goal by intimidating each tribe and then promising benefits to everyone.
But with such a large-scale operation, and having to travel through long and arduous wilderness mountains, how can we ensure that our whereabouts are concealed and not be discovered? Yuliang also thought of a plan, which was to divide the hunting teams into small groups and attack from different directions in batches.
After entering the mountains, they all took a detour and gathered near Huahai Village, waiting for the right moment to launch a thunderous strike. His action this time was a kind of test and temptation.
But doing this requires a guide who is very familiar with the local conditions, and Weiliang got a guide, which was the monkey who was expelled from Huahai Village. With the monkey leading the way, Weiliang has been hiding in high places around Huahai in the past few days.
After observing the location for a long time, today I quietly came to the high cliff with the best view.
When he stood on a high cliff and looked out into the distance, the above-mentioned plan in Yuliang's mind gradually took shape. But before he could go back and tell the plan, he was caught by Ruoshan, and all the men he brought with him were wiped out.
…
The monkey was expelled from Huahai Village, carrying no weapons and only carrying a pheasant. He endured the pain and reconnected the injured right shoulder joint, and walked far away before eating the pheasant while it was fresh.
, and then walked alone along the rugged mountain road, his destination was the Central Valley. Only there could he find a chance to survive. If he stayed alone in the wilderness, he would definitely die.
Fortunately for him, he also had many years of experience in surviving in the wilderness. He chose a place to camp in the middle of the night and was not snatched away by wild beasts. He also did not encounter powerful beasts on the mountain road the next day. The food of the various tribes in the wild is not just food in the wild.
Birds and beasts that need to be hunted, wild fruits in the mountains, plant stems, and even various plump insects can all be eaten.
When the monkey carried an injured arm into the forest again to look for food, it happened to be discovered by Yuliang who came quietly with his team. It is very rare to encounter a lone traveler in the wild mountains, so Yuliang ordered his men to catch the monkey.
After asking about his origin, he was overjoyed when he learned that Monkey was a member of the tribe expelled from Huahai Village.
Yuliang told the monkey that since he was expelled from the tribe, a person would never survive in the wilderness. Even if he arrived in the Central Valley, other tribes would have to be willing to take him in. However, there were also people from Huahai Village and Lu Village who settled down in the Central Valley to guard the place.
As long as they heard about him, which tribe would take him in? The only way for the monkey to survive is to listen to the orders of Master Yu. As long as he can perform meritorious service for Master Yu, he may still be able to live in the future.
It's very comfortable, and I even have fish to eat every day.
Monkey immediately expressed his willingness to follow Yuliang, and he really made a contribution to Yuliang immediately, that is, he told the origin of Huwa. He heard what the little girl Luluo told him a few years ago - Huwa is the only bloodline of the Qingshui clan.
Orphan.
Of course, Monkey would have to say how he was kicked out of Huahai Village, all because of a hateful little kid, and this kid also had a special identity. Yuliang was shocked when he heard that, and immediately ordered his men to give Monkey a
He only had a spear, which he could use as a stick for self-defense in the mountains and forests. He also asked a lot about Huwa's situation.
The purpose of Yuliang's trip was to explore the road and collect information about Huahai Village and Lucun. It was an unexpected joy to find a guide like Monkey who was familiar with the situation, and it was even more joyous to learn about Huwa's existence! When
He heard that Huwa often went to Huahai Village to play, and when he was often the only one passing by on that remote mountain road, he had other thoughts.
Yuliang is here for reconnaissance and testing, and of course he will not expose himself, but if there is a chance to capture the tiger baby, it will be a great achievement. The tiger baby represents an inherited status, and the main properties of each tribe are shared by the clan members.
The things left by the Qingshui clan also belong to Huwa in terms of title. The dispute over the salt well some time ago was because the salt well had no owner, and the conflicts among the tribes in the mountains were also due to the various blanks left after the Qingshui clan disappeared.
The reason why the elders of the Youyu tribe have more ideas cannot be ignored. Their ancestors were the followers of the ancestors of the Qingshui clan. They followed Li Qingshui and came here to settle and multiply. The Qingshui clan is no longer there.
The Fish Clan takes it for granted that they should inherit everything left by the Qingshui Clan. However, the tribes in the mountains do not recognize this truth, and the Fish Clan does not have this right either.
But with the tiger baby in hand, the situation is different. You can justifiably claim to inherit everything left by the Qingshui clan, and control the tiger baby to become a clan member of Youyu Village. This problem can be solved morally and honorably. In this way
Some small tribes will not participate in the competition, and even if some tribes are dissatisfied, they are not powerful opponents of Youyu Village.
More importantly, Huwa is a descendant of the Qingshui clan, and that wild valley is the enfeoffed land of the Qingshui clan. Controlling Huwa and then controlling this place will also get the rights that the Ba Kingdom on the plains deserves.
This kind of inheritance relationship cannot be denied even by the monarch. Otherwise, why would that monarch claim to have inherited the orthodoxy of the Ba Kingdom?
