What's more, even if they are affiliated families, many families in Yelang County have considerable resources.
The resources looted from these three tribes alone are enough to make the family reap a great harvest. If a few more come, the family will not have to worry about resources for the rest of the year.
After having an idea in mind, Chen Tianjing turned his sharp eyes to look at the map in front of him.
This is the family power map of Yelang County.
Among them, the Gongyang Family occupies the center of the entire Yelang County, and other affiliated families are on the edge. This was originally a move made by the Gongyang Family to maintain the unity of the territory, but now it makes it more convenient for the family to take action.
After some observation, the family quickly selected three new victim families.
They are the Lu, Chang and Ma tribes.
The geographical location of these three tribes is relatively south, adjacent to the Miao, Feng and Hua tribes, making it most convenient for the family to take action.
Although there are several affiliated families in Yelang County, they are too far to the north and the family’s strength is not enough to attack all the families. Some members must be retained to deal with sudden attacks from the Gongyang family.
…
In Yelang County, in the Gongyang Clan’s territory, several elderly men were crying in the main hall.
"Yangle clan elder, our clan is in dire straits."
"The Chen family attacked our clan without any explanation. Even our chicken that was laying eggs was abducted by the Chen family."
"And our clan's Feng Shui treasure land was also destroyed by the Chen family. The nobles must avenge us!"
"And my tribe's totem..."
Looking at the members of the three tribes crying and wailing in the hall, Gongyang Yangle also felt a headache.
He was also caught off guard by the Chen family's move. After learning that the three tribes were attacked, he did not immediately send tribesmen to support them. Instead, he quickly sent a message to the tribe leader, asking for his orders.
However, the message from the clan leader has not been sent back yet, and he is only the acting clan leader. He dare not make any promises to them at the moment. He can only comfort them and say that the family will definitely not sit idly by.
But these false words obviously could not satisfy the people below.
Several tribes were loyal to the family, and he knew a few of them. It was not easy for Gongyang Yangle to drive them away at the moment.
At this time, Gongyang Yangle soon heard the whispers of his tribesmen.
Gong Yang Yangle's expression changed slightly after hearing this, but soon he became calm, and said to the people below:
"Don't panic, everyone. Our clan leader and other elders have returned from the border. When they return, the Chen family will be destroyed."
After hearing this, the people of all tribes who had been crying and wailing just now shut up immediately and showed joy on their faces.
Now that the Gongyang family has returned, they don’t have to worry too much.
Just thinking about the family's loss this time, several people were still very sad and said immediately:
"Elder Yangle, I have an unwelcome request. I hope that when the nobles attack the Chen family, they will allow our clan to participate."
"Yes, the Chen family is really too much. Our clan will eat their flesh alive."
Gong Yang Yang Le pondered for a moment:
"I cannot promise you this for now, but I will report this to the clan leader after he returns."
"Thank you, elder Yangle."
"Well, you guys can rest in my tribe for the next few days. We will discuss everything after the tribe leader returns."
After dealing with this matter, Gongyang Yangle turned his attention to the patriarchs of other affiliated families.
The attack on the three tribes made other families in Yelang County panic, and the clan leaders of each tribe came to the Gongyang family one after another to ask for support.
But facing the strong attack of the Chen family, Gongyang Yangle did not dare to act rashly.
Seeing the glances from the clan leaders, Gongyang Yangle wanted to send a few clan members to go with him, and let each clan activate family defense to deal with possible attacks from the Chen family.
But after thinking about it, Gongyang Yangle had another idea.
The clan leader and his men are on their way, although the family has already sent the Silver Snow Owl to pick them up.
But the border is far away, and it will take at least six or seven days for the clan leader and his men to get back.
If the Chen family chooses to withdraw during this period, the family will undoubtedly suffer the maximum loss.
The Chen family probably hasn't heard about the clan leader's return yet. The family may try to delay the Chen family for a while, and when the clan leader and his men return, they can easily destroy the Chen family. After all, the Chen family members outside have no totem to protect them.
But the current problem is how to delay time and keep the Chen family members.
It is obviously not possible to deal with it head-on by relying on the clan’s military force. The only way is to let the Chen family relax their vigilance.
Now that the Chen family has attacked, the family has not taken any action, which will inevitably encourage the arrogance of the Chen family, and it is very likely that they will even attack other families in Yelang County.
In addition, the Chen family had previously plundered the three tribes and must have obtained a lot of resources.
If he sends his clansmen to support other clans now, the Chen family will inevitably encounter stubborn resistance, and may then consider retreating.
But if he asked the various tribes to reduce their defenses and allow the Chen family to easily obtain resources, he would think that the Gongyang family was no more than that.
By then, the Chen family may be blinded by greed and delay for a few more days, and may even think of attacking other families again.
Show the enemy your weakness and take advantage of your strength.
This is the art of war.
In this case, the other affiliated families become the key, and the family’s display of weakness must not let the Chen family see the flaw.
After some hesitation, Gongyang Yangle immediately gave orders to the people of each tribe, asking them to take their important resources and members with them and temporarily reside in their clan territories.
After hearing this, the people from various tribes who came here were all delighted. They all agreed and quickly returned to their tribes, preparing to evacuate their tribesmen.
With the protection of the Gongyang family's totem, the Chen family probably won't have the courage to attack them anymore.
After the people from various tribes left, Gongyang Yangle narrowed his eyes slightly.
