After a round of searching, they managed to rescue a dozen wounded soldiers. With the Wild Panax Notoginseng as a medicine, they probably wouldn't die. Whether they were injured in an arm or a leg, they would still be useful laborers in the future. Didn't you see that the lame water bugs are now the main force of the hunting team?
Under the leadership of the super charlatan Ma Yue, more than a dozen wounded members of the Bear Tribe were rescued. They were brainwashed by Ma Yue's miraculous "magic" fireball and loyally became new members of the Sea Tribe.
Flying stones and flying spears showed their power in this battle between the Sea and Bear tribes. The Sea tribe paid more attention to the training of flying stones and flying spears.
"Horse! Let's fight back!" The chief learned from the naturalized captives that it was the Bear Tribe that invaded first. Chief Hai, who was full of confidence, suggested taking the initiative to attack.
"Not for now. We still have too few people. We will be at a disadvantage if we leave the cover of the wall." Ma Yue rejected Leader Hai's suggestion of taking the initiative to attack.
The old primitive high priest also thought it made sense. If it weren't for the walls and gullies blocking the battle between the Sea and Bear tribes... even so, four Sea tribe combatants who were hiding on the defensive platforms behind the walls and gullies were killed in the battle.
Don't think that only the people of your Sea Tribe can throw rocks and spears. People from other tribes are also accustomed to throwing weapons. Although they are not very accurate, they are still threatening. Fortunately, with the shelter of the timber wall, the losses of the Sea Tribe were not great.
"Don't be impatient. Strengthen the training of flying stones and flying guns, and wait until winter... hehe!" Although Ma Yue had no revengeful mentality, the temptation to conquer the bear tribe and increase the population and the number of "fans" was still quite great.
In winter, primitive people basically stayed in caves. But the Hai tribe, with the help of the magician Ma Yue, could easily make fire even in the wild, making them much more resistant to the cold.
If we could trap the people of the Bear Tribe in a cave, it would be much easier to catch them.
The instructions of the charlatan must be correct. This is the consensus of the people of the Hai tribe, including the leader "Hai". They will not object to Ma Yue's decision. "Hai" is Ma Yue's biggest super "fan" of the power of faith.
The war between the Sea and Bear tribes is more or less a deterrent to the surrounding tribes. Some tribes that want to take the salt from the Sea tribe must be cautious.
The hunting team of the Sea Tribe is becoming more and more powerful. There are more and more stone throwers and spearmen, and more and more prey are hunted.
"Horse! We caught a deer, alive!" The hunting team brought back some prey that were captured alive by flying guns and stones.
Ma Yue shook his head. "These things are difficult to keep in captivity, especially in winter. Where can you find fodder to feed them? Hay? Come on, it's a question of whether deer and sheep will eat that." Ma Yue didn't know anything about raising deer and sheep, so he couldn't pretend to know.
Ma Yue was most satisfied with the fact that he had been injured by flying stones and had caught a few rabbits.
When Ma Yue was a child, his older brother raised rabbits. These rabbits are very easy to feed. When they are very hungry, they will even eat hay mats. Moreover, rabbits reproduce very quickly.
So, at the gate of the timber fence, Ma Yue gathered some people from the Hai tribe and started to fence in the rabbits and make some simple rabbit nests.
Luckily, rabbits can't climb trees, so a high fence will do the trick. As for rabbits digging holes? Just find some rocks or something like that for your nest, and have a child watch over them from time to time. Rabbits can't dig holes that far away all at once, right? If your rabbit dares to dig a hole, just block it up if you're caught.
I don't know how to build a brick wall, so I have to make do with this. It will be fine once the rabbit gets used to it.
Ma Yue, the charlatan, said that rabbits could be raised, and the hunting team was very enthusiastic about catching them. The hunting team had many stone throwers, and gradually, there were more than ten rabbits in the rabbit pen, both male and female, which was quite good.
Rabbits are really easy to raise. They just eat grass. They have tried to escape many times but failed. Now that they have food and water in this fence, they have gradually become well-behaved.
With the birth of the first litter of rabbits, the old primitive high priest smiled happily and organized another large-scale sacrifice.
With so much fodder stored, it is estimated that it will be enough for the rabbits in the fence to eat even in winter.
As the tribe's crude salt production grew, they could exchange for more pottery and tools, and furs were also important for wintering.
Ma Yue was planning to conquer the Bear Tribe in the coming winter, and the warriors wouldn't be able to go without adequate furs to protect them from the cold. Fortunately, in this era, even bone needles were available, making it easier to sew fur coats. As for simple gloves and shoes, that would suffice.
With a handy bone knife, stone axe and the like, it is much easier to make a flying gun. Flying guns are long-range weapons with high accuracy and lethality, so the more you have, the better.
Anyway, everyone is busy and working.
With the arrival of heavy snow in winter, fish and meat pickled with coarse salt have made the food stored for winter much more abundant.
"Horse! Go to war!" The leader was impatient.
"It's too early. If we go out now, the captured people from the Bear Tribe will still need our food to feed them." Ma Yue said this, and the wise old primitive high priest immediately gave a thumbs up.
Chief Hai scratched his head and finally understood: "It's best when winter is almost over."
"Smart!" Ma Yue also gave the leader a thumbs up.
The rabbits in the pen also had to survive the winter, but fortunately, they could still withstand the winter wind and snow and didn't freeze to death. Ma Yue tried to be very humane and lit a bonfire in the rabbit pen.
The rabbits were scared at first, but they gradually got used to it. After all, the campfire kept them warm. Every day, the tribe members took turns guarding the rabbit pen and feeding them hay, so Ma Yue wasn't worried anymore. Rabbits only eat hay in winter, so losing weight is inevitable, so there's nothing to worry about.
It wasn't impossible to go hunting in winter; it was also possible in calm weather. However, Ma Yue didn't have the patience to participate. He didn't mind if the hunting team wanted to go out.
They break the ice to fish, and occasionally the hunting team can go out and bring back some meat, and with salt, they can roughly ensure their physical strength. This winter, the Sea Tribe is having a good time.
As the people in the tribe became more and more accepting of Ma Yue, the power of faith became stronger and stronger. The number of super fans like the old primitive high priest, the chief, and the water bug continued to increase, including yam, iron egg, winnowing basket, table, chair, chrysanthemum, lotus, and orchid.
Very good! Ma Yue was very pleased. These super fans will be Ma Yue’s closest confidants in the future.
Yes, in a group, how can you lead without trusted people? In the future, the tribe will grow larger and larger, and you will need subordinates to take charge of leadership. A lazy person like Ma Yue will never be able to lead so thoroughly.
He had developed a faith in Ma Yue. With such a super fan, Ma Yue had no worries about betrayal. Of the dozen or so people who were rescued and joined the Sea Tribe, there was one who... didn't even have the power of faith.
It seems this guy still misses the Bear Tribe and has no regard for the Sea Tribe at all. It's interesting that the power of faith can distinguish between loyalty and treachery.
Ma Yue would not allow such a dissenter to participate in the most confidential salt-making work. He was responsible for all the dirty and tiring work. Does this count as being half a slave? Haha!
