You could call him confident or arrogant, but he never thought that he would be defeated by the Green Bamboo Tribe.
The fact was just as he expected, he not only won, but also won easily.
After dinner, a candle made of some unknown oil flickered with a pale yellow light.
This weak light couldn't even fully illuminate Knight Willy's room, making the people sitting in the room for a meeting look like villains, planning something shady.
"The Black Collar Tribe has the largest number of people. Over the years, they have always had the upper hand even when fighting one against three. They are very strong. Although I am confident that I can defeat him, now is not the right time. I will save this slightly tough bone for last."
At the top, Roning was arranging the next battle plan with his subordinates.
At this time, in addition to Ronin, Redar, McKen, Elron and others were also in the room. The captives outside were handed over to Juwitt and Sim.
"So next, we will still follow the original plan and prioritize destroying the 'Tripartite Alliance' in one fell swoop."
Roning took out the simple map that Redal had drawn before, but now based on the information from Walton and Dandy, he had a better understanding of the surrounding terrain.
“The Ziguo Tribe is located about 20 miles northeast of the Qingzhu Tribe. It’s relatively close, has a small population, and has low defense.
The Gray Earth Tribe is 50 miles away in the east direction, which is quite far away. In addition to having six extraordinary people, it has also built fortifications with certain defensive capabilities. "
Luo Ning pondered for a moment and made a decision: "So the second savage tribe we are going to attack is the Purple Fruit Tribe."
Riedal listened to Ronin's plan and agreed with it. He suggested, "Sir, it is not difficult to see from the battle just now that as long as we capture the leader of this group of savage tribes, the others will kneel down and surrender.
The Purple Fruit Tribe only has two extraordinary people, and there are probably less than ten soldiers with combat training, so I don’t think we need so many people to deal with it.”
"Yes, sir!"
McKen didn't do much today, and he really wanted to show off his strength. After hearing what Riedal said, he immediately agreed:
"I think I should take David and Tom there tomorrow. My lord, you and the commander will take the soldiers to rest here for a day and wait for the news of our victory."
David and Tom agree with this.
"If we are only dealing with the two extraordinary people from the Purple Fruit Tribe, I believe it is enough to let the three of you go. There are always unexpected things in a battle. Now we have the advantage, there is no need to take risks."
Roning remembered a sentence and shared it with McKen, "We can despise the enemy strategically, but we must take the enemy seriously tactically."
Despise the enemy strategically and take the enemy seriously tactically. It is the same in any world.
Everyone seemed to understand the meaning behind this sentence. McKen also admitted, "You are right, sir. I was too rash!"
Luo Ning smiled slightly, "It's not reckless. At least part of your point is correct. We really don't need to bring so many people to attack the Purple Fruit Tribe tomorrow."
He said, thinking for a moment, and then made a decision.
"How about this, tomorrow I will lead Macken, Elron, Wharton, Dandy, as well as fifteen guards and forty militiamen to the Purple Fruit Tribe."
"Rydar, you stay with David and the others in the Qingzhu tribe and urge the people here to continue the unfinished autumn harvest so that the food will not be wasted on the fields."
Although Redal, David and others felt a little regretful about not participating in the expedition against the Purple Fruit Tribe, they had no objection to Roning's arrangement.
Although the Qingzhu tribe has been conquered, it is not appropriate to transfer all the extraordinary people away in a short period of time. Someone is needed to maintain order.
Although Elrond can read and record, it is more appropriate to entrust this task to Wilson, who is in charge of government affairs.
After all, someone still needs to take care of the Qingzhu tribe's land, so it is necessary to let Wilson come over in advance to familiarize himself with it.
By the way, with the incorporation of these tribes, he no longer has enough political officials. After returning this time, he will also need to recruit an assistant for Wilson.
As for the Qingzhu tribe, they can appoint a village chief.
Roning pulled his thoughts back to his senses and decided to deal with these matters after completely conquering the barbarian tribe.
"Okay, let's all find a place to rest. Riedal, please arrange for the soldiers who will go to the Purple Fruit Tribe tomorrow to have a good rest, and let the guards who stay behind take charge of the night duty."
Rielda nodded slightly, "Yes, sir."
The meeting ended and everyone left the room.
At this moment, the soldiers outside had just finished their meal. Except for those on guard duty, the others were sitting around the campfire, excitedly telling about their experiences during the day, and there was no shortage of boasting.
As for the captives, thanks to Ronin's kindness, they were allowed to rest.
However, half of the prisoners were stuffed into the homes of their companions or neighbors to spend the night temporarily, so that the vacant beds could be used for the soldiers to rest.
Not to mention the situation outside, Roning in the house was counting the property left behind by Knight Willy.
The wealth possessed by the chief of a savage tribe is actually very little.
First of all, there is money. Even after looting everything, there are only 5 gold, 32 silver and 164 bronze.
It is said that this was obtained by Willy from selling wild beasts and first-level monster skins outside, but some of it has been used up over the years, and only this much is left.
Although the money was little, Luo Ning did not despise it at all. He put it all into the space ring.
Apart from money, the most valuable things are probably Willy's ancestral armor and knight's sword. Although the armor has cracks and the knight's sword has notches, they are still usable.
While everyone else was rewarded with armor and a knight's sword, Ronin gave Willy's set to Sim.
"Ten pieces of parchment, a quill pen, a bottle of ordinary ink, 4,330 kilograms of barley, 2,600 kilograms of wheat..."
Luo Ning couldn't help but click his tongue, and once again lamented how true the famous saying "while the rich live in luxury, there are people freezing to death on the streets" was.
He heard that people in the Qingzhu tribe starved to death every winter, but their leader had so much surplus food at home that he would rather keep it than give it away for relief.
In addition to these, Willy also raises eight goats, which makes him quite wealthy.
"For me, the biggest gain from taking over the Qingzhu tribe this time is the more than 900 acres of cultivated land and 354 people."
This way, he was a little closer to the [Prosperous Population] requirement of 3,000 people.
"According to the information provided by Wharton and the others, once I conquer the Purple Fruit Tribe and the Gray Earth Tribe and complete the population registration, this achievement will be completed."
