Chapter 108: Opened a Super Treasure Box

This was indeed just a small river. Zhou Xu took a quick glance and found that the width of the river was about two meters, which was wide enough for someone to jump over.

The water is not deep and clear, reaching up to the knees at most.

At the same time, there are fish in the water. Just now, Zhou Xu clearly saw a small fish quickly emerge from the cracks in the rocks at the bottom of the water and then swam away.

“Do you fish on weekdays?”

"have."

As he was speaking, Wang Chuan led everyone to a river.

I saw a fishing net being pulled up directly across the two-meter-wide river, and the fish in the river were being caught in this simple and crude way.

However, the fishing efficiency does not seem to be high.

Zhou Xu took a look and realized that it wasn't a problem with the fishing net. It was probably because the fish resources in the river were not abundant, far from the level of the Black Moon Camp and the Grassland Camp.

Wang Luchong should have been aware of this, so he changed to growing vegetables, fruits and raising pheasants to provide a stable food supply for his tribe.

Among them, thanks to the existence of "Potato", he achieved his goal relatively easily.

At the same time, these vegetables, fruits and farmed pheasants were undoubtedly the biggest gains of his trip.

Apart from the horrible camp layout, his gains from killing Wang Luchong and annexing the opposite camp were like opening a huge treasure chest! It was no exaggeration to say that he had made a fortune.

During this period, Zhou Xu certainly did not forget to inquire about the sources of these resources.

According to Wang Chuan, only a small part of what was actually found on this barren mountain, and many of them were brought out from the depths of the mountains, including the potatoes.

This made Zhou Xu even more convinced that it was quite profitable to destroy the traversers' camp.

No matter what, Zhou Xu took over this resource directly and in full.

Moving along the stream, there is a relatively flat area at the foot of the barren mountain on the side close to the depths of the mountain. In Zhou Xu's opinion, this place is undoubtedly more suitable for cultivation as agricultural land.

"But chief, it might be dangerous to cultivate the land in this location. Some tribes on the other side may occasionally go far away and appear nearby."

"It's okay. According to your previous description, the only threat deep in the mountains is the Barbarian Stone Tribe. The ones on the outskirts are just weak tribes that rely on the Barbarian Stone Tribe and survive by paying tribute to it."

"The Barbarian Stone Tribe is located deep in the mountains, occupying the richest resource area in the area. It is far away from us. Even if they knew about us, they probably wouldn't be interested in traveling across mountains and rivers to come here and cause trouble for themselves."

At this time, Zhou Xu was undoubtedly speaking out a problem that most tribes had to face in this era.

That is because their arms are not long enough. When facing enemies beyond their normal range of activities, even if they know there are enemies over there, they may not be interested or may not be able to take action.

"As for those weak tribes that survive by paying tribute to the Barbarian Stone Tribe, we don't have to be afraid of them."

Having said this, Zhou Xu paused.

"Besides, as long as the other side is not stupid, after being defeated a few times, they should not have any plans to attack us again in a short period of time."

After reading all this, Zhou Xu’s mind has become clear about the reconstruction plan of his camp in the barren mountains.

First, all the fields on the main camp side were flattened and used for camp construction, and all the farming work was transferred to the foot of the mountain.

Afterwards, the main camp will be greatly expanded under his readjustment of the layout, and the stronghold on this side will be directly incorporated into it.

In other words, he no longer wanted this stronghold near the depths of the mountains and simply merged it into a camp.

On the same side of the barren mountain, the distance between the main camp and this stronghold is actually not that far.

To put it bluntly, Wang Luchong established this stronghold because he was afraid that the enemy would attack the main camp directly, so he set up a checkpoint here.

But in Zhou Xu's opinion, it was completely unnecessary.

In other words, levels can be set, but there is no need to single them out.

Just expand the camp all the way down, and then deploy patrol teams on the periphery to carry out patrol missions.

There is no need to build such a stronghold. Not only is it of limited value, it is also in the way and hinders the development and expansion of the camp.

After looking at the terrain at the foot of the mountain, Zhou Xu, who had a clear idea of ​​the situation, led his men back to the main camp and started making arrangements.

During this time, a subordinate ran over quickly and reported to him...

"Chief, the supplies from our rear have arrived and are now placed at the stronghold in the Gobi Desert."

Hearing this, Zhou Xu nodded.

"Okay, I got it. Let the members of the transport team have a good rest first. I have already had people prepare the supplies that need to be brought back. You just need to carry them down in batches. At the same time, bring some people back as well. I will make the specific arrangements."

Zhou Xu would definitely bring fruits, vegetables, and pheasants back to his current base, the Black Moon Camp, for cultivation.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

As for the people they were going to take back, they were definitely not their own people, but the more than one hundred tribal warriors here.

It was obvious that the other side had too many people.

Even though they have expressed their surrender now, there is no guarantee that these guys will not cause trouble after being released. It would be one thing for the situation to be difficult to control, but what is more annoying is that it would cause them unnecessary losses.

Under this premise, the easiest way to avoid this potential trouble is to break up all these people and disperse them to various camps.

Of course, it would be too much pressure to escort more than a hundred tribal warriors back all at once, so this first batch would only send fifty people back.

Zhou Xu has already arranged the destination for these fifty people.

Thirty of them went directly to the mine in the Salt Lake Camp to mine, and the remaining twenty were sent to the logging team and engineering team in the Black Moon Camp to do coolies, carry wood and dig canals.

At present, the manpower requirements for these jobs are basically the more the better.

Under this premise, the remaining people will stay in the main camp and do the hard labor for the time being.

After all, all the fields on the main camp side have to be demolished, and the camp also needs to be substantially rebuilt, so there are many places that need work.

As for what to do if these people cause trouble? Zhou Xu has already set up his "Skeleton Array" near the camp. In addition, there are three major combat forces, Zhou Chongshan, Li Ce and the hyena skeleton. If the remaining few people want to cause trouble, they can still control the situation.

"Come to think of it, Chongshan, Li Ce, when we were fighting before, didn't you notice that there was anyone on the other side who was particularly good at fighting?"

Obviously, this time when annexing the population, Zhou Xu still wanted to acquire some talented people such as powerful generals.

If you want to deal with the centaurs and hyenas on the grassland, the best way is to give him powerful generals without getting the powerful mantra.

But according to his current state, if he were to open his "Eye of Insight" and look at the tribe of nearly 200 people one by one, wouldn't he be dumbfounded? At this time, it would be great if Zhou Chongshan and Li Ce could provide him with some useful information.

But unfortunately, faced with this question, both of them shook their heads.

This situation made Zhou Xu look helpless.

[That’s right. If there was a powerful general on the opposite side, facing my shield formation at that time, Wang would have sent a powerful general to break the formation long ago. How could he let himself be forced to death? ]
