Chapter 502
As twilight fell, it covered everything in the world and concealed the cruelty of the day, making everything look a little less bloody and cruel, and more indifferent and clean.
The tribe under the night still looks as peaceful and serene as in the past, and there is no shadow of the battle during the day.
But those captives who didn't know they were living in a pigsty, or didn't care if they knew, didn't think so.
What happened during the day that seemed so far away was still clearly imprinted in everyone's mind, letting them know clearly how terrifying this seemingly peaceful tribe would be if it moved.
Everyone stayed here quietly, some people hummed softly from time to time because of their injuries, and some curled up against the cold stone wall and fell asleep.
This is their first night after coming to this tribe.
This night is not good, because at this time the autumn is almost completely over, and the early winter has come slowly, with cold and chill.
However, no one felt that there was anything wrong with the current living conditions. After all, the current situation was much higher than what they imagined.
The thick walls and the roof above kept the cold out, and the orange fire light filled the whole room, and occasionally a few strands emerged from the cracks in the door, piercing the darkness of some nights.
In a blue-brick house that was used as the location of the temporary council, several influential people from the Qingque tribe gathered together to discuss matters.
Unlike ordinary Qingque tribe citizens, these people still need to continue to work hard while they sleep peacefully with the joy of victory.
In the meeting room, Wu shook his head. He felt bad about Shang and Maosuo's proposal of taking people to attack the Tengshe tribe's lair.
He felt that there were already enough slaves in the tribe, and he didn't need to go so far to attack the Tengshe tribe.
And if there are too many slaves, it will become a burden for the tribe in a short time.
Because the weather is getting colder and winter has come, it is not a good season to get food.
In other words, the captured slaves of the Tengshe tribe will eat food for two or three months or longer for nothing.
And during this period of time, the Qingque tribe's food will not have much income,
Can only live on the food that has been saved.
It is true that the tribe has had a bumper harvest of millet this year, but now that they have added more than 60 mouths to eat, it is still a bit overwhelming.
If the Teng Snake Tribe is captured and the remaining people are brought over, there will be more people who will eat nothing.
For the Horde, the pressure will be even greater.
After all, Wu is old, not aggressive, and tends to be content with the status quo.
The current tribe is already many times better than the best situation he imagined, and this time he has acquired more slaves than he imagined.
In addition, he was worried about the lack of food, so he was somewhat repulsed by the idea proposed by Shang and others to make people go straight to Teng Snake.
After Wu finished his opinion, the room was quiet for a while. The few people in the room were not talking, but all focused their eyes on Han Cheng, waiting for the son of God to make his final decision.
Han Cheng didn't speak immediately, but tapped his fingers on the table made of slabs and stones in front of him. After a while, he said slowly, "I think we still have to fight this time..."
It is advisable to use the remaining courage to chase the poor, and not to be known as the overlord.
The Tengshe tribe has been completely disabled this time, and all those who escaped have been completely chased away. It is estimated that it is unlikely that all of them will go back.
At this time, it is a good time to take advantage of the situation and destroy it in one fell swoop.
The Teng Snake Tribe had to be removed. One reason was that none of the two captured from the original Donkey Tribe appeared on today's battlefield.
Han Cheng once promised Shang and Trade that when the time came, they would rescue their clansmen.
Now the time is fully ripe. If no action is taken, Shang and Mao may not feel better, which is not conducive to the unity of the tribe.
The second reason is that the Tengshe tribe is not completely eliminated. For the Qingque tribe, it is always a security risk. It always makes people feel uncomfortable and feels like being stared at by poisonous snakes.
From Rabbit Hair's mouth, Han Cheng already understood the expansion method of the Tengshe tribe.
In his opinion, that method is extremely extensive.
But it is undeniable that this is indeed a good way to quickly improve your strength in a short period of time.
If left alone, according to the behavior style of the Tengshe Tribe, it is estimated that they will be able to develop again in a few years.
It is difficult to reach the current scale, but it is not difficult to surpass the average small tribe.
The third is the existence of the Tengshe tribe, which is not a good thing for the tribes in this land.
They will make the already not too many people even more scarce.
Even affected by today's battle, it is estimated that it will be difficult for them to muster up the courage to attack the tribe again, but in the long run, the existence of the Tengshe tribe is still not conducive to the development of the Qingque tribe.
Because with the continuous development and growth of the Qingque tribe, more and more people will be needed, while the Tengshe tribe is just the opposite and will continue to lose its population.
A person does not know how many hardships he will go through from falling to the ground until he grows into an adult, but it only takes a moment to kill a person.
It is always easier to destroy than to build.
In order not to make the Qingque tribe develop until no one can use it.
In order not to let the trading team of the Qingque tribe go out, they will not meet a single tribe.
Han Cheng felt that it was very necessary to send troops to attack the Tengshe tribe and take the opportunity to wipe them out in one fell swoop.
As for the lack of food that Wu was worried about, Han Cheng was not too worried, not because he had great confidence in the food stored in the tribe, but because he was thinking about the Tengshe tribe.
He remembered very clearly that Tu Mao said that the witches of the Teng Snake tribe wanted to store up enough food before attacking the tribe, so they first sent Tu Mao and the others to scout the way.
The Teng Snake Tribe called today, which meant that the Teng Snake Tribe had already stored enough food for them.
It would be enough for them to eat without attrition, and now, so many people of the Tengshe tribe have died, so it should not be a problem to use the food they stored to support the remaining people of the Tengshe tribe .
When attacking the Tengshe tribe in the past, naturally they would not only plunder their population, but also the food they stored.
With these foods, the Qingque Tribe, which has many more slaves, can survive this winter in peace without worrying about the lack of food.
