After attacking the three major tribes, Huang did not pursue the victory, but instead attacked other tribes.
Having just experienced a war, although the price paid by the Dragon Tribe was not heavy, it was definitely not light.
What's more, after the war, the Dragon Tribe absorbed people from the other three tribes, and there was a lot of work to be done, and many problems needed time to be solved.
The tribal people are eager for development. As their king, Huang decides to follow public opinion and focus on development for the time being.
Huang's choice was correct. The reason why the Dragon Tribe was able to quickly conquer the three major tribes was, firstly, because of its own strength, secondly, because of its geographical proximity, the rapid combat effect was significant, and thirdly, because of the image of Huang that he had created over the years that was not enterprising, which made other tribes look down on him.
Victory in a war requires the right time, place and people; all three are indispensable.
Blindly expanding the war at this time will only increase the burden on the people. Once the tribe that they have painstakingly built is dragged down by the war, all efforts will be in vain.
For tens of thousands of years, although there have been occasional frictions among the twelve tribes that use the zodiac as their totem, they have survived safely to this day by checking and balancing each other.
But since Huang came to power, the Dragon Tribe has grown rapidly. They seized the opportunity and annexed the three major tribal forces during the famine years, and seemed to be on the verge of unifying the world. What should they do?
As the survival of the tribe was at stake, the other eight tribes quickly reached an agreement to unite and jointly annihilate the huge threat of the Dragon Tribe!
Although Huang was sitting in the Dragon Tribe, his spies were lurking in every tribe, and he soon knew the plans of other tribes.
If those tribes were to unite, even if the Dragon Tribe had strong logistical support, it would be difficult to withstand the military force that was several times larger than its own.
Huang was confident that he could eliminate those tribes one by one, but he was not arrogant enough to resist the joint attack of the eight tribes on his own.
After thinking for three days and adopting the opinions of the wise men, Huang developed a feasible plan.
For tribes that are farther away, adopt a strategy of friendly interaction.
It was a time of famine and supplies were very tight in other tribes. There was even a tragedy where some people starved to death.
The Dragon Tribe has abundant supplies, and they can take advantage of this to provide food, clothing, medicine and other assistance to tribes that are farther away, thereby reducing their fear and resistance to the Dragon Tribe.
For tribes that are closer, they will find various reasons to gradually encroach on their land and take away their people, and then launch a general attack when the time is right.
At the same time, Huang also bribed a large number of speculators from other tribes, gave them huge benefits, and asked them to say some confusing words in their respective tribes, in order to sow discord, weaken the alliance relationship between the eight tribes, and reduce their vigilance and resistance to the Dragon Tribe.
In less than three years, the alliance formed by the eight tribes was in name only.
The tribes that were far away received too many benefits from the Dragon Tribe and often spoke on behalf of the Dragon Tribe. The tribes that were close were gradually declining under the harassment of the Dragon Tribe. They were resentful and angry, but could do nothing about it.
Each tribe in the alliance only cares about its own interests and is constantly having internal conflicts. Even without the Dragon Tribe taking action, they are already full of tension and may go to war at any time.
The people of the eight tribes lived a life of displacement and hunger during this turmoil. In contrast, the people of the Dragon Tribe had no worries about food and clothing and their lives were full of fun.
Naturally, when the people of the eight tribes heard about the prosperity of the Dragon Tribe, they were shocked and wanted to migrate to the Dragon Tribe with their families.
When the leaders of the eight tribes discovered this situation, they were very dissatisfied and forcefully suppressed this large-scale migration. However, they did not expect that the more they suppressed it, the more resentful the people became and the more they would resist.
The eight major tribes have lost the support of the people, and the unification of the world has become the expectation of all people. Huang carries the will of all people, and this war of special significance has become a historical necessity!
When Huang was forty-five years old, the Dragon Tribe had completely integrated the power of the other three tribes. The comprehensive strength of the tribe had made a leap forward, like a giant dragon that was feared by the world. When it exhaled, the other eight tribes would tremble!
The first to attack were the closest Rat Tribe. In the previous five years, the Rat Tribe had been subtly eroded by the Dragon Tribe. Now it was extremely weak and surrendered without much resistance.
Choosing the Rat Tribe to attack was also to test the attitudes of the other tribes. If the seven tribes resisted fiercely, it would prove that the previous strategy was of limited effectiveness and a longer-term plan would be needed to truly launch a war of unification.
But it turned out that Huang's worries were unnecessary.
The alliance formed by the eight tribes has long been in name only, and they are scheming against each other and dislike each other.
Upon learning of the demise of the Rat Tribe, three tribes did not express their opinions, four tribes applauded, and only one tribe strongly condemned the Dragon Tribe's action of occupying the Rat Tribe.
Because they were alone, this tribe, which was indignant about the Rat Tribe, became the target of joint attacks from other tribes.
Huang also found an opportunity and took advantage of the situation to destroy the tribe.
After some testing, Huang knew that the alliance of other tribes had long been in name only, but he was not in a hurry to take action.
The people newly incorporated into the Dragon Tribe have not yet settled down, and production has not resumed in some areas. Huang can certainly ignore the feelings of the people and complete the great cause of unification first, but this is contrary to his ideals.
The unification of Huang was completed so that human civilization could develop better, so that it would not progress at a snail's pace for a long time, or even regress in some aspects.
People are the foundation of development. Huang decided to first settle the people who had suffered from the war, and then wait for an opportunity to launch a war of unification, taking steady steps without haste or impatience.
When Huang was 48 years old, he led his troops north and successively wiped out the Snake Tribe, the Pig Tribe, the Ox Tribe, and the twelve zodiac tribes, leaving only the Dragon, Chicken, Tiger, and Sheep.
It was not until then that the Tiger Tribe, Sheep Tribe, and Chicken Tribe realized the seriousness of the problem.
They once accepted a lot of benefits from the Dragon Tribe, always speaking for the Dragon Tribe, and even offended other tribes for this.
They fantasized that their efforts would be recognized by the Dragon Tribe, and that they could live in peace and harmony with each other.
But when the tribes standing in their way were destroyed one after another, they could no longer deceive themselves that the Dragon Tribe would most likely destroy their tribe as well!
The Tiger Tribe, the Sheep Tribe, and the Chicken Tribe quickly formed an alliance in an attempt to resist the attack that could come at any time.
But it was too late. The Dragon Tribe had absorbed the forces of the eight tribes, and after years of development, its strength had become so great that it was no longer something that the alliance of the three major tribes could resist.
When Huang was fifty-one years old, he launched a general attack on the remaining three tribes. Although the distance was far and the terrain was unfavorable, the Dragon Tribe had a strong army, sufficient resources, and excellent equipment. Despite the disadvantage, they managed to wipe out all the resistance forces of the Tiger Tribe, Sheep Tribe, and Chicken Tribe within three days.
As for the small tribes outside the twelve zodiac signs, seeing that the unification of the world by the Dragon Tribe was a foregone conclusion, they no longer offered futile resistance and surrendered one after another, taking the initiative to incorporate their territories into the territory of the Dragon Tribe.
Since then, the tens of thousands of years of division of human civilization on Blue Star has ended, unification has been completed, and human civilization has entered a new stage of development!
