Chapter 312: Termination of the Market (Please vote and subscribe)

The leaders of all tribes followed Luo Chong to climb the city wall. At this time, it was getting dark. There were already soldiers on the top of the city wall with torches standing guard. Usually there was no such thing, but today was an exception.

There were more than 20 leaders in a group. Some came to join the Han tribe, some fled to the Snake tribe, and some were leaders of many allied tribes. These people stepped onto the not-so-majestic city wall with amazement. After all, it was only more than seven meters high, and it was incomparable to many ancient city gates. However, just this alone made them amazed.

The square city area was divided into a nine-square grid by four main streets arranged in a tic-tac-toe shape. Smoke rose from the city, and there were thousands of people wandering on the streets, visiting various places. The square in the center of the city was the most lively, with many bonfires lit, and countless people preparing a grand celebration banquet there.

Looking outside the city, outside the east gate is a neatly arranged rice field, divided by a small river in the distance. The dirt road in front of the gate leads directly to the wooden bridge, stretching straight into the distance.

Under the city gate, the water of the moat shimmers in the moonlight. The large grassland to the west, which was a battlefield of shouting and killing a few hours ago, now seems very quiet. From time to time, the sound of insects can be heard in the grass, which makes it impossible to associate it with the battle that happened not long ago.

"Dear leaders, what do you think of the city of our Han tribe?" Luo Chong saw that they had been observing for a while and began to ask them.

"I have only been to the market a few times before. When I saw this city from the outside, I didn't understand at first why Chief Han asked his people to spend time and energy to build such a thing. It was not until I climbed to the top of the city myself that I felt Chief Han's foresight. With such high walls and deep moats, it can indeed block any enemy attack. Although it takes a long time and consumes a lot of manpower, it can be passed down from generation to generation and ensure that my people can recuperate safely. It is really worth it." The leader of the Pointed Horn Tribe spoke first.

"Yes, when the enemy army was besieging the city, I was in Hanyang City. I was allowed by the elders of the Han tribe to climb up to the top of the city wall to watch the battle. The giant monsters among the enemies were extremely powerful and their jumps were amazing. I was worried that those monsters would jump onto the city wall, but I didn't expect that those monsters couldn't even reach the lowest battlement. In the end, they could only fall down unwillingly, and many of them were killed on the spot by the soldiers on the city wall.

Alas! Now when I think of this, I feel a pang of regret in my heart. Our Snake Tribe is so close to Hanyang City. If we could have joined the Han Tribe earlier and lived in such a strong city, we would not have suffered the disaster of genocide. That day, the enemy army suddenly came to our tribe, and we didn't even have the ability to resist. Fortunately, some tribesmen fought to the death, so that most of the women and children escaped. Otherwise, I'm afraid we would have been really annihilated. .

I have been living in the city these days, and I have learned more about the Han tribe. It turns out that the people who joined the Han tribe all have the same surname as the original tribe, forming their own lineage. Although everyone is from the same tribe, they have also retained the lineage of the original tribe, which is not to say that it has disappeared from now on. It is actually better for everyone to live together. There is strength in numbers, and more things can be done and living conditions can be better.

Therefore, I have decided that I will take the remaining 200 people to join the Han tribe and become the Snake Clan of the Han tribe, so that all the tribesmen can live better. At least they don’t have to live in fear all day long, afraid that the enemy will suddenly arrive one day. I hope that the leader of the Han tribe will agree to my request. "The leader of the Snake tribe put his hands on the edge of the wall, looking at the pedestrians coming and going in the city, and said to everyone with emotion.

"Haha, if you are willing to join the Han tribe, I certainly welcome you. Just like you said, there is strength in numbers. The more people there are, the more things we can do. I promise that under my leadership, my people will definitely live a better life. Now, as the leader of the Han tribe, I formally welcome you to join." Luo Chong solemnly agreed to the request of the leader of the Snake tribe.

"Thank you, leader. From now on, my people will be your people. As long as we can do something, the leader can arrange it at will. Since we have joined the Han tribe, we should also make our own contributions to the Han tribe." The snake leader heard Luo Chong's solemn promise and saluted Luo Chong.

This drama made the leaders of the tribes drop their jaws. What's going on? Didn't we agree to come here to study the distribution of rewards? Why did one of you suddenly pledge allegiance and the other accept it with peace of mind?

But just when they were confused, Luo Chong suddenly spoke. He glanced at these leaders and said with a serious face.

"Leaders, you have fought side by side with our Han tribe for so many days. I wonder if you have discovered the special features of these enemies?"

"Special features? They are numerous?" The leader of the Cha tribe said uncertainly.

"That's right. There are more than 1,200 enemies, and they are all adult males. Even our Han tribe, whose population has exceeded 4,000, cannot produce such a large number of combat power. Just think about how powerful this enemy tribe is.

Moreover, their current range of activities has already reached here. It is hard to guarantee that they will not come again in the future. Who knows how many people they still have.

This time, all tribes have suffered losses, and the Snake tribe has suffered the most. Now they have lost their homes and can only join the Han tribe to seek shelter. But what if the enemy comes next time? I don't know which tribe will suffer.

I called everyone to this battle. I also said before that I would give you rewards, but I have already exchanged prisoners for white salt and given you some of it. When you go back, I will give you some rewards as compensation, but the market of our Han tribe may not be held again in the future." Luo Chong slowly said the long-planned plan.

The leaders were very happy to hear that there would be rewards, but Luo Chong's next words immediately made them explode.

"Chief Han, if you don't hold the market in the future, where can we exchange white salt and other daily necessities?"

"That's right, Chief Han, you must not stop the market!"

"Everyone, everyone, please be quiet. I have just said that the enemy we are facing is too powerful. Even our Han tribe is now unable to repel the enemy alone. Fortunately, we still have a strong city, and it is no problem to ensure our own safety.

But if we still hold the market in the future, what if the enemy suddenly kills us? If the enemy rushes into the city at that time, our Han tribe will probably be in trouble, not to mention that there are tribesmen from various tribes who come here to trade, and their safety cannot be guaranteed.

So I decided to stop the market in the future, and Hanyang City will also stay at home, opening only one city gate every day to ensure the safety of the tribe. Therefore, I may not be able to take care of you in the future. I can only think of ways to protect our own tribesmen in the Han tribe."
