Chapter 1445 Kara
Looking at the bag of pancakes thrown in front of them, the two tribesmen were extremely surprised. This was something they had never expected.
After hesitating for a long time, they finally grabbed the bag of pancakes thrown on the ground and fled out of the camp as if they were running for their lives.
During this process, Bai Tu's order had been accurately conveyed. The soldiers on night patrol simply ignored the existence of the two tribesmen, allowing them to rush out of the camp and flee into the jungle without looking back.
They didn't know how long they ran until they were all out of breath. The two tribesmen finally stopped by holding onto a big tree beside them. They were so tired that they were panting and couldn't straighten their backs.
"Are you really letting us go?"
Looking back at the direction they had run from, even now, their hearts were still full of disbelief.
During this time at the Da Zhou camp, letting the two tribesmen go was not a big deal to Bai Tu.
After all, through the aerial reconnaissance of the pterosaur riders, they had already locked down three locations, and based on their current location, Bai Tu had a basic idea of which camp the two tribesmen came from.
In Bai Tu's opinion, there is not much point in detaining them.
It would be better to let them take the food and let them go back.
If the people in that tribe were smart enough to feel their sincerity and come and surrender directly, it would save them a lot of trouble.
It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t surrender. He has his own plans anyway, and he will just lose a few big pieces of cake anyway.
After watching the two tribesmen flee for their lives, Bai Tu turned around and went back to the tent. He had just finished meditating and was feeling very tired. For him, resting early was the most important thing.
The Great Zhou soldiers in the camp did not take it too seriously.
There are still tribesmen living on this island, which means there is most likely no other more powerful civilization. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, the surrounding tribes should have been incorporated long ago.
In comparison, in a tribal camp deep in the jungle, a woman with yellow skin, black hair, red paint on her face and a huge feather crown on her head was unable to sleep or eat because of the landing of the Great Zhou fleet.
Kara is a time traveler. Although she was summoned here inexplicably, these primitive people recognized her as their leader. At the same time, after a period of time, life has become relatively stable, and Kara has gradually become accustomed to the life here.
Needless to say, the patrol team on the beach was specially arranged by her.
Originally, she thought that there were piranhas forming a natural defense line in the surrounding waters, and outsiders could not get close to the island they were on. But who would have thought that the opposing fleet somehow managed to land successfully! The patrol team realized that something was wrong and rushed back to the tribal camp as quickly as possible to report the incident to her.
After learning about this situation, Kara became visibly anxious.
So they quickly sent more people to gather information under the cover of night.
It took Kara a long time to get some sleep. Anxiety, fear and other emotions were intertwined, making Kara feel like she was in agony and every second felt like an eternity.
But the two people who went to get the news panicked and ran in the wrong direction when Bai Tu let them go.
It would have been bad enough if they had just run in the wrong direction, but they almost ran themselves to death. It took them a long time to finally calm down. By the time they returned to the tribal camp, it was already late at night.
Kara, who was guarding the camp, was almost going crazy.
"Why did you take so long to come back?!"
At this moment, Kara opened her bloodshot eyes and looked at her two subordinates with a little annoyance.
Although she was a woman, she obviously possessed enough prestige in this primitive tribe. When the two subordinates were glared at by her, a look of obvious awe suddenly appeared on their faces.
Not daring to hide anything, he quickly told him everything that had happened before.
At the same time, he placed the bag of pancakes that Bai Tu had given them in front of the woman.
After listening to the two people's reports, Kara's face turned ugly.
This reminded her of the stories her grandmother told her, or the history of their ethnic group.
One day, the ships of the white colonists broke into their land. Those damned and greedy beasts occupied their land and slaughtered their people, almost making their tribe extinct!
At this moment, listening to the reports from her subordinates, Kara felt as if that bloody history was being repeated in front of her, and her whole face twisted unconsciously.
"You want me to surrender? No way!!"
Obviously, her education since childhood made her have no trust in these guys who came here on big ships.
She originally thought that she could rely on the defense line formed by piranhas and live out her life as an island owner peacefully on this island.
I never thought that this trouble would eventually come to me!
Unlike Kara who was destined to be unable to sleep peacefully, Bai Tu slept particularly soundly that night.
To put it bluntly, they are strong enough and don't take the primitive tribes on the island seriously at all.
After waking up and having breakfast, adjutant Lin Youshu came over to confirm the next course of action.
"Colonel, are we going to send a team deep into the jungle today to recruit the nearest primitive tribe?"
Faced with this question, Bai Tu shook his head.
"There's no rush for this. I just tried to persuade them to surrender last night. We have to give them a few days to think about it."
Having said that, Bai Tu glanced at the ship still floating on the sea.
"Gather some people today and cut down some trees. We will build a simple dock on the beach first. This will make it easier for us to get on and off the boat later."
"yes!"
After quickly arranging this matter, Bai Tu's gaze fell back on the jungle in the distance.
Bai Tu didn't finish what he said just now. Giving the other party a few days to think about it was just one of the reasons.
Another reason is that the jungle environment is indeed complex, and the musketeers can hardly perform well in it.
Although their pioneering troops were equipped with basic sword and shield soldiers to deal with various special situations, it would be a troublesome problem for them if the opposing tribesmen ambushed them in the jungle.
When facing a primitive tribe, their mentality is completely different from when facing a higher-level force.
This is just like how modern humans are sometimes afraid of wild dogs barking on the roadside.
It’s not that they can’t beat the dog. The fundamental reason is that they are just afraid of pain and being bitten by the dog.
Bai Tu's mentality was similar at this time. He did not want to pay any casualties in the process of incorporating a primitive tribe.
You know, now for their Great Zhou, the population of dozens or hundreds of tribes is no longer important. What is important is the island under their feet!
In the current situation, due to the existence of the piranhas, they cannot leave for the time being, so Bai Tu has no need to rush. He can just proceed steadily and slowly, step by step.
