"Don't chase!"
After killing several non-tribal people who rushed over to them, some of the Qingque tribal trading team members, who were full of real anger and momentum, wanted to give chase as they looked at those non-tribal people who were fleeing in panic and no longer dared to come near them.
Mao, whose arms were numb from continuously pulling the bow and arrows, spoke up immediately to stop the trading team from doing this.
"Let's deal with these things first and get out of here!"
Mao shook his slightly trembling arms and spoke loudly.
After hearing his words, everyone stopped chasing and started to pack up quickly according to Mao's instructions.
The main thing is to retrieve the arrows that have been shot and kill some enemies who are seriously injured but not dead for the time being.
As for those whose injuries were less serious, they were tied up using the Green Bird Tribe's binding method and roughly bandaged according to previous practice.
"Hurry up and deal with the things here! Let's get out of here!"
Mao urged again.
The reason why they are in such a hurry is that a lot of people died here at once, and the smell of blood is particularly strong.
Plus, the wind is blowing, which can easily attract some carnivorous beasts.
Unless it was necessary, Mao didn't want to lead the trade team to fight these beasts.
What he wants to do most is to conduct a peaceful transaction. He generally doesn't want to do bad things like fighting and killing.
While speaking, he had already picked up the backpack on the ground and led a donkey carrying supplies.
"Mao, we, we just leave like this? He, they beat us!"
Xiong You'er wiped the blood off the bronze-headed spear in his hand, came in front of Mao, and spoke with some hesitation and reluctance.
He himself was a warlike person, and in the few months since he joined the Qingque tribe, he had heard a lot about the Qingque tribe's promotion of the just defense war.
He agreed with this from the bottom of his heart, and felt that this was what he had to do since other tribes were coming to attack his tribe.
It doesn’t make sense that when people from other tribes come to attack us, our tribe should welcome them with a smile and even provide them with food.
So after hearing such orders from Mao continuously, Xiong You'er felt a little unhappy. After hesitating for a while, he came to Mao and said these words to him.
The meaning is very obvious.
That’s the matter this time. We can’t let it go so easily!
Hearing him say this, Mao was not angry because he thought the same way himself.
"After we pack up, let's go there!"
He said with a smile, and pointed to a place.
Xiong You'er looked in the direction of his finger and saw several people lying on the ground in different postures.
After seeing this, Xiong You'er couldn't help but smile, and his whole sky became clear.
Xiong You'er is certainly not a pervert who gets excited by seeing the corpses of his enemies.
It was because the direction that Mao pointed to was exactly the direction in which the non-tribal people fled.
If you follow this direction, you will reach the non-tribal cave!
Those people who died were shot to death with bows and arrows by people from the Qingque tribe while they were escaping.
In fact, it wasn't just Xiong You'er. The rest of the trading team also breathed a sigh of relief after they understood the meaning of the trade.
Only a few old people from the original trading team showed some smiles.
They knew from the very beginning that Mao would definitely make such a decision.
This dark-skinned man who often smiles and likes to give candy to the tribal children he meets is actually much stronger than he appears.
When encountering a situation where people from other tribes attack their own tribe, they will never choose to swallow their anger.
They smiled at this time, without any other meaning. They were just laughing at the people in the team. They had followed Mao to trade for too short a time and didn't quite understand Mao's character and the character of the Qingque tribe.
After spending some time here, they will slowly understand what the Green Bird Tribe is!
After receiving this clear answer from Mao, everyone's enthusiasm for packing up increased significantly.
They worked quickly, and before long, they had packed up everything.
"Set off!"
Mao, who was holding a bow and arrow in his hand, carrying a backpack on his back and leading a donkey loaded with goods, shouted loudly, and the members of the Qingque tribe's trading team followed him, turned around, and headed towards the Fei tribe that they had left yesterday.
Xiong You'er held the Green Bird flag and raised it high.
The bluebird's head was stained with some blood and turned dark red, making it look a little weird.
Compared with the usual peace, it feels a bit more eerie.
Xiong You'er seemed a little uncomfortable with this change, because he felt that it would make the Qingque flag look ugly.
But time was urgent at the moment, and he wiped it several times but still couldn't wipe it clean, so he could only let it go on like this.
Fortunately, the blood splattered on it did not belong to the tribe or the trading team.
This made Xiong You'er feel better.
The crowd walked forward in a heroic and confident manner, with a sense of momentum.
Although they are a trading team, their main responsibility is to trade with various tribes and they will not take action easily, but when they really take action, they will be very decisive.
It is the type of person who "uses bricks to fight, and doesn't use hands to hit the target. If you can't hit the target, then hit it again. If you hit the target, then hit it to death."
Although trade is their main job, they are also very good at fighting, which is not much inferior to their main job.
Some of them are even better at fighting than at their jobs, such as the tall and strong Xiong You'er...
"Mao, we want to fight the Green Bird Tribe, so why didn't we chase them when they escaped? Wouldn't it be easier to fight them this way?"
After walking for a while, Xiong You'er, who was carrying the Green Bird flag and looked quite excited, finally asked his doubts again.
Xiong You'er was the kind of person who couldn't keep things to himself. This question had been in his mind for quite some time. Now he finally couldn't hold it back any longer and asked Mao.
After Xiong You'er asked this question, many of the people walking forward turned their eyes to Mao who was leading the donkey.
Obviously, they, like Xiong You'er, also have doubts about this matter.
This matter is indeed puzzling.
If Mao himself did not want to attack non-tribal people again, it would make sense that he did not allow everyone to chase after them when he had previously repelled the non-tribal people.
Now that Mao still wants to continue leading his men to attack the non-tribes, that’s a little hard to say.
Because in their view, when the non-tribal people were beaten by them and ran away in panic, it was the best time to attack them.
If they had started attacking them at that time, they would have been able to easily kill or tie up the remaining non-tribal people.
After all, at that time, people outside the tribe looked no different from frightened prey.
After hearing Xiong You'er's question, Mao couldn't help but smile.
There is certainly a purpose behind this arrangement.
The first is that we are different from people outside the tribe.
As a trading caravan, they carried a large amount of supplies, as well as donkeys, deer and other animals carrying goods.
It is inconvenient to move.
If they were all placed here, there was a fear that the smell of blood would attract a large number of ferocious beasts.
If they all left, these donkeys, deer and other animals tied to the tree trunks would have nowhere to escape if they encountered wild beasts that came after smelling the blood, and they would surely die a miserable death.
These donkeys and deer are still very useful to the Qingque tribe. At least when it comes to carrying much more things than humans.
It is an indispensable and important assistant in long-distance trade.
Secondly, in the newly formed trading team, except for him and a few others, the rest were newly recruited personnel.
After these days of running-in, everyone has already gained some understanding of each other and are able to cooperate with each other.
However, the coordination between them is still far from perfect.
The best testimony was the man who broke through the defense and came to the front of the Qingque tribe trading team not long ago, and hit a Qingque tribe archer hard with the wooden stick in his hand.
If the members of the trading team cooperated well with each other, such a thing would never have happened.
Under such circumstances, if he ordered the trading team to pursue, the members of the trading team would most likely suffer heavy losses in the pursuit.
On the one hand, the people of the Qingque tribe are far less familiar with the terrain of this area than people outside the tribe.
On the other hand, when non-tribal people fled, they fled in scattered groups.
If they pursue, they will certainly disperse.
In this way, the armed advantage of the trade team will be greatly weakened.
As the situation gets worse, if we really encounter a few non-tribal people who are forced into a corner and launch a desperate counterattack, it is very likely that an irreversible accident will occur.
The third is that the members of the Qingque tribe’s trading team are all wearing rattan armor.
The rattan armor can indeed reduce a lot of damage to people, but it will also limit people's speed to a certain extent.
Under such circumstances, the people in the trading team may not be able to catch up with them.
Since there are so many unfavorable conditions, why should I order the people in the tribe to chase after them?
Why don't you take your men to rest for a while first, then go forward calmly with the supplies, continue to gather the people into a fist, and then go to attack the non-tribes?
I believe that in this gap of time, the non-tribal people who had fled in all directions before have already gathered again in their caves.
By that time, wouldn't it be much easier to capture him if I led the trading team there?
It also saves you from chasing around all over the mountains and fields.
Unscrupulous businessman, unscrupulous businessman, there is no businessman without fraud.
This statement is absolutely true.
People who engage in more trade are always more cunning.
For example, although Mao looks honest, when he really wants to do something, he can do it in a complete way.
After some weighing, they can maximize the benefits as much as possible and make things more in line with the interests of their own tribe.
After hearing Mao's remarks, Xiong You'er, who was a straightforward person, was completely confused. He felt stars in his eyes. After a long while, he slowly realized what was going on.
After reacting, Xiong Youpi couldn't help but stretch out his right hand, raised his thumb high, and gave Mao a big thumbs up.
He admired Mao's words from the bottom of his heart.
He can think of so many things, no wonder he was appointed as the captain of the trade team by the Son of God.
"High! It's really too high!"
Xiong You'er spoke sincerely and praised loudly, with an awe-inspiring look on his face.
However, his sincere praise did not have the desired effect, but instead caused the people around him to burst into laughter.
It's not that Xiong You'er was targeted, but nearly half an hour ago, the people in the trade team had already sincerely praised and liked Xiong You'er's ideas. At that time, Xiong You'er just looked like he was trying hard to think about something and did not participate in it.
At this time, so much time had passed and everyone had shifted their attention to other things. However, Xiong You'er did something like this at this time. This reaction was completely out of sync, and it was impossible not to make everyone laugh.
It's understandable to react a beat or two slower, but to be this much slower really makes people want to laugh.
Looking at the people in the trading team who were looking at him and laughing, Xiong You'er, who was giving him a thumbs up, was a little confused.
He retracted his hand and scratched his head. Looking at the people who were still laughing and looking at him strangely, he became even more confused.
"What are you laughing at? Isn't this method particularly good? Shouldn't it be praised?"
It would have been better if Xiong You'er hadn't said this. As soon as he said this, coupled with his confused expression, the laughter suddenly became louder.
Some people who were trying to hold back their laughter, after hearing what he said and looking at his expression, could no longer hold back and burst into laughter.
Some people laughed so hard that they bent over, some laughed so hard that they choked, and they squatted on the ground, shouting "Aiya, Aiya" while reaching out to wipe away the tears of laughter.
Even Mao, who was being praised, couldn't help but laugh...
(It’s the end of another year, I wish you all a happy New Year’s Eve, eat more dumplings, and set off some firecrackers if possible)
