The Sea Tribe took advantage of the situation and invaded Taki City, seizing tens of thousands of donkeys. Some of these have already been shipped to Poseidon City via the Ghost Fish King Tribe's ships. The Xi'an branch's arable land has enormous potential. Great, then if we send in more large livestock, we can reclaim even more new farmland.
Ma Yue's plan was to transport the tens of thousands of livestock seized from the Tengu tribe to the Xi'an branch. If they couldn't transport all of them in one go, they could transport them a few more times. The Ghost Fish King tribe had lent the Sea Tribe 150 ships.
Of course, they won’t stay in Taki City first. The ships cannot transport them away for the time being. As for the 8,000 cavalrymen, they can just be taken back to Longlin City.
The Hai tribe is still focusing on developing its Xi'an branch. After all, there are too many unstable factors in Longlin City on the East China Sea Island.
They also captured five or six thousand able-bodied men from the Tengu tribe. The Hai tribe didn't hesitate to take them back to Longlin City first, and then transported the next batch back to the Xi'an branch. After they were properly reformed, they would become a good labor force for the Hai tribe.
The Ghost Fish King Tribe captured Taki City and the Saltwater Lake; the Sea Tribe took a huge amount of spoils. Everyone was happy, but the most unhappy were the Tengu Tribe, who suffered heavy losses and gained nothing. Lingguo Island lost over 10,000 soldiers, and Taki City lost over 10,000 more.
No matter how powerful the Tengu tribe was, the loss of so many soldiers was a serious blow. Most importantly, they had lost their foundation on the East China Sea Island. With nowhere to go, the chieftain and the chief witch of the Tengu tribe had no choice but to return to the southern grasslands. Who knew if they could make a comeback?
The allied forces of Guiluowang tribe and Hongzang tribe rushed out of the fire, but the fire blocked their way back to Lingyin City. After waiting for a long time, until the fire was finally extinguished, the allied forces of Guiluowang tribe and Hongzang tribe finally returned to Lingyin City, but they had nothing left, including food, pigs, livestock, copper reserves... even the population.
Even if you claim to be a large tribe, how many troops can you have? Two of the four major tribes have engaged in fierce fighting, and this time, the combined forces of the Guiluowang Tribe and the Hongzang Tribe have each sent out over 10,000 troops. Lingyin City really doesn't have many troops stationed there.
Dozens of balloons covered the sky and dropped burning black oil on Lingyin City, and the last hope of resistance was gone.
The Sea Tribe showed no disdain for the captured soldiers, including the elderly and the weak. The Firestone fleet took away all they could, even borrowing 150 ships from the Ghost Fish King Tribe to join the frenzied maritime transport effort to rob Lingyin City. The combined capacity of over 300 ships was considerable.
Why is Longlin City so anxious about shipping? Why not empty Lingyin City first?
Since they couldn't move everything, they first transported the people and pigs. Luo Bai used the captured livestock to form a cavalry of 8,000 (that is to say, when Luo Bai went to Lingguo Island this time, he captured as many as 5,000 livestock), and took a batch of food and went deep into the Lingguo Island.
Let's go first. When we reach the agreed new outlet in the distance, we'll meet up with the Sea Tribe's navy and then go home. There are so many outlets to the sea on Lingguo Island, why do we have to gather in the Lingyin City area?
This is also the reason why the coalition forces of Guiluowang Tribe and Hongzang Tribe returned to Lingyin City with nothing left.
Ma Yue returned to Longlin City, and the rest was busy with naval affairs. As for shipping the captured Lingguo Island spoils by sea first, Ma Yue had no objection. Whether it was the captives from Lingguo Island or the large livestock and pigs, they were all excellent supplements for the Xi'an branch.
The four major tribes were badly cheated by the Sea Tribe. They each need to lick their wounds. For the time being, they will not cause trouble for the Sea Tribe again.
After two months of hard work, the navy finally returned to Longlin City. They had to continue transporting goods. There were still many large livestock and prisoners in Longlin City that needed to be transported by sea.
Just transport it. The Sea Tribe seized too much food this time. The sailors have worked hard. Just eat more.
The Ghost Fish King Tribe has protested many times, but the 150 sea vessels they loaned out haven't returned yet?
The Hai Tribe replied, "We're paying for the food for the crews of your 150 ships. Why are you in such a hurry? We won't default on our debts. We've really been busy with shipping, haven't we? We're not lying."
The Ghost Fish King Tribe had just arrived at the East Sea Island, and since they couldn't stand up to the Sea Tribe, they had no choice but to accept the situation. Fortunately, the 150 ships were only half of the Ghost Fish King Tribe's transport capacity, so it didn't hinder the Ghost Fish King Tribe's own transport of troops.
Today, the city of Taki is home to an army of nearly 30,000 soldiers from the Ghost Fish King Tribe, as well as 7,000 to 8,000 large livestock. Its strength is quite impressive.
"Great witch, I asked the crew of our ship, and the Sea Tribe has indeed been transporting by sea. The people of Lingguo Island's Guiluowang Tribe and Hongzang Tribe in Lingyin City were all robbed by the Sea Tribe. More than 20,000 people were transported to the Sea God City." Paozhao said. The ship was lent to the Sea Tribe, but the sailors were from the Guiyuwang Tribe, so it was not difficult for Paozhao to find out the news.
"The Hai tribe is so greedy that they even took over Lingyin City." This was beyond Luo Yang's expectations.
"The Hai tribe has made a fortune this time. There are more than 200 ships carrying sweet potatoes and more than 5,000 large livestock shipped out of Lingyin City..." Paozhao was really envious.
"People, population is the most important thing. If all 20,000 of them go to Sun City, they'll be even stronger. If a real fight breaks out, the Sea Tribe will defend the city, and even the old and weak will go into battle. Besides, with so many people and large livestock, how much new arable land will have to be developed?"
"The Sea Tribe is still shipping large livestock from Dragon Scale City to Poseidon City."
"It seems the Sea Tribe's roots are in Sun City. I heard their Xi'an branch has huge farming potential, and they've even built three Stone Cities."
"That's a good thing. The Sea Tribe's focus is on Sun City, so they won't have many troops left here. If one of them really dominates, it will be difficult for our Ghost Fish King Tribe to deal with it."
"I guess the Sea Tribe thinks so too, haha!"
…
The Sea Tribe had been shipping for so long without encountering an enemy navy, which was quite fortunate. The Sea Tribe did not like naval battles, as they were too costly.
Perhaps, during this period, the other major tribes were busy recovering and unwilling to easily provoke the Sea Tribe. This was especially true of the Guiluowang Tribe and the Hongzang Tribe on Lingguo Island. These two tribes were severely damaged by the plundering of the Sea Tribe. With so much food stored up, people need to eat.
What to do? Fish and hunt, just make do and survive. Just wait until autumn, when the sweet potatoes in the Lingyin City area are harvested. If you want to survive, there's always a way, no matter how difficult it is.
The copperware stored in Lingyin City, including the copper ingots smelted in the early stages, had been snatched away by the Hai Tribe, so they could continue mining. After experiencing this catastrophe, the Guiluowang Tribe and the Hongzang Tribe had at least shown genuine cooperation. If they had been petty, neither would have survived.
Giving up is definitely not an option. The copper mines here are too precious. Without the copper raw materials, what hope will the tribe have in the future?
At the same time, Wu Qi in Sun City received a red feather letter from Ma Yue, ordering all the captives from the Gui Luo King tribe on Lingguo Island, regardless of gender, age or status, to be thrown into the copper mine in Star City to be mined.
