Chapter 434 Chapter 434: Strive to complete KPI (14) [seeking monthly ticket]
One group of people dig pits and bury people, and another group of people clean up the battlefield.
When you're done, pat your **** and leave.
The attack took an hour.
More than half of them were wasted in dealing with problems after the war.
It was noon the next day when someone noticed that something happened to this tribe. According to the garrison system of the royal court, in order to ensure that each tribe was "safe and sound", the garrisons of two adjacent tribes had to exchange information every ten days. .
If any tribe breaks out, the royal court will not only have to hold accountable the garrison of that tribe, but also the garrison of the tribes related to it will be implicated. However, the royal court has become more and more majestic these years, and even the Shiwu tribe, which has always liked to fight alone and has no concept of organization and discipline, has begun to settle down, because following the royal court can fill their stomachs, and there are subsidies for going south to Longwu County for hunting.
Why don’t you do things that can benefit you?
The second day was originally a day of routine exchange.
But there was no information until noon, and my messenger did not reply. Could something have happened?
It's not surprising that he is so skeptical.
Small tribes are willing to follow the royal court, because there are many benefits, but this kind of large-scale and long-lasting old tribe is different. They always feel that they are at a disadvantage and have a higher chance of chaos. Just about to prepare all the soldiers and horses to have a look, the messenger came back.
"Report—"
It is approaching dusk.
The messenger looked flustered and brought back bad news.
It is still a big bad news.
Their neighboring tribes were wiped out!
There are only ruins left at the scene, and there is also a huge tomb bag with newly turned soil. Hearing the dreamy expression on the face of the garrison leader here, "Am I awake and dreaming?"
The messenger repeated it twice, and he had to believe it if he didn't believe it.
"Who did it?"
This question is undoubtedly embarrassing for the messenger.
Don't ask, it means "subordinates don't know".
"Immediately order all the people to check it out!"
This person immediately ordered a hundred people to go over together like a fire, and told the rest to enter a state of combat readiness. They are not allowed to sleep all night tonight and strengthen night patrols, for fear that the same bad luck will befall him.
When we arrived, it was already dark.
But the scorched smell in the air still persists.
The leader of the garrison held a torch and ordered people to investigate carefully.
The subordinates couldn't help guessing.
"Which gang of thugs did this?"
There are also bandits in Shiwu. Most of them refused to accept the rule of the royal family or lost their tribal pastures and were forced to wander. In order to survive, they often launch sneak attacks on other tribes to obtain living resources. Their actions are very cruel and bloody.
is a cancer that everyone hates!
The leader of the garrison shook his head: "Probably not."
It can't be a good thing done by violent bandits.
Without him, the scene is too clean.
There is no trace left by the enemy at all. The tribe that was attacked did not even have the opportunity to send someone out to report for help. It can be seen that the mob has a large number of people and is so powerful that they can directly take over a large tribe without making a fuss...
Can a stray dog wandering the wasteland do it?
If they can do it, they won't be lost dogs. There is a 90% probability that they can be excluded from the ranks of suspects.
The subordinate guessed again and asked: "Is it the enemy?"
Tribals often fight because of some interest issues. Before that, two tribes started a war of tens of thousands of people, because the sheep of one tribe ran over to eat the grass of the other tribe.
This kind of situation is not uncommon in Shiwu.
The leader of the garrison shook his head again: "Impossible."
Those who commit such atrocities must be a well-trained force, decisive and swift, and with this condition...
I can’t think of a specific goal for a while.
He asked: "Have you found out the direction of the villain's retreat?"
Check is found.
But they chased for a while and found that the traces were broken, which should have been carefully cleaned up by the rioters. The leader of the garrison could only return angrily, and ordered people to dig up the buried grave, hoping to find clues on the corpse. Although the corpses were putrefied after being buried in the ground, they were not decomposed yet, and the wounds were clear. Ordinary people were mostly killed by one blow, while martial arts fighters had more wounds.
In addition, there is another strange discovery.
Men without exception had their right ears cut off.
The leader of the garrison asked: "Where are the women?"
The subordinate said: "It's fine."
Although some corpses were so burned that they couldn't see their original appearance, they were mostly intact, and the elderly remained untouched. Only the adult male had his right ear cut off.
This kind of behavior is hard to say that it is not malicious provocation by the enemy!
There are hundreds of corpses on the ground.
The garrison leader's face darkened, and he waved his hand at him.
A group of soldiers started to throw the excavated corpse back into the pit, and didn't bother to cover it back with soil.
"How about the clan property?"
The subordinates checked carefully: "A few tribal granaries were stolen, but no gold or silver was found, and everything else is there."
In Shiwu, people live on the basis of the tribe, and they have to pay a price for enjoying the protection of the tribe. Every household has to hand over part of the grain harvested to the tribe's granary. This part of the food will be used in special difficult times, but it is given priority to the warriors of the tribe to ensure that they are fed first and maintain a strong body so that they can hunt better and maintain the safety of the tribe.
Affected by the terrain, climate and customs, Shiwu is not good at farming. Food output is small, which is a precious resource. In comparison, things like gold and silver are not worth that much in the world. Gold and silver are all in the news, but food is not much less...
The leader of the garrison thought for a moment.
"Looking at the situation, the enemy is not large."
If the scale is large, the food will have been removed long ago, and if it is not removed, it will be burned. In Shiwu, where there is a general shortage of food, food is more popular than gold and silver. Since the scale of this group of violent bandits is not large, the per capita strength should be very high, and all members are elite.
Otherwise, how can we win a tribe of more than 4,000 people?
Wanting to understand this, the leader of the garrison immediately wrote down the news and his own conjectures, and ordered someone to pass it on to his superiors, but he felt a little worried. With the ability to form such a well-trained elite force, its background is probably not small...
"I hope I don't have anything to do with any noble in the royal court..." the garrison leader murmured inwardly.
It is not without similar things before.
For example, there are salt mines in the pastures of a certain tribe, and they can make a fortune if they are mined. When Wang Tingxungui heard about this, he took it by force and ordered people to secretly destroy that small tribe, and then took the things for himself... You know, Shiwu belongs to the edge of the inland, and coupled with the backward technology, nearly 70% of the salt is obtained every year by looting or private transactions with black-hearted merchants from other countries. The survivors dare not speak out.
The leader of the garrison is afraid that it will be the same this time.
"Ah, thanks—"
Shen Wuliang Xungui Tang, who was chanted, sneezed big, and continued to count the gold and silver after the sneeze.
Eyes shine.
"How about the golden belt of murder and arson..."
Looking at the gold bumps and silver bumps...
Shen Tang's hands were shaking.
My heart is trembling!
Amount drop, amount drop, all TM is a drop!
