Chapter 328: Pouring cold water (1)
Translator: 549690339
Zhao Hai’s words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly calming the happy Weyers. Weyers put down his wine glass and closed his eyes. After a long while, he opened his eyes and looked at Zhao Hai.”Little hai, big brother really has to thank you. This great victory has made us a little too proud. Fortunately, you reminded us. You were right, we still have a lot of things to do. We shouldn’t be so proud.”
Zhao Hai couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief when he heard Wales’s words. He had said all this to Wales to persuade him and to see how Wales would react. If Wales listened to him, it would mean that Wales wasn’t blinded by victory. Zhao Hai was someone who would do great things, and Zhao Hai would help him as he had before.
However, if Weyers didn’t listen to him, Zhao Hai wouldn’t have helped him like he did in the past. That meant Weyers wasn’t someone who would do great things.
Fortunately, Weyers listened to his advice, so he could continue. He looked at Weyers and said, ” “Big brother, we have to quickly deal with King XI Qi, and then deal with the fleeing bullfighting clansmen. I want to hear big brother’s opinion, what do you want to do? Do you want the bullfighting race to never rise again, or do you want to give them a chance to live?”
Weyers snorted coldly,”leave a chance?” Why should I leave them a chance of survival? Didn’t you see how they treated my clansmen? Those are just some old people and children. They actually wanted to freeze them to death, so why should I leave them any chance of survival!”
Zhao Hai nodded and said, ” &Quot; alright, I know what to do with your words. You can take care of King XI Qi as soon as possible, then report to the great battle tribe about their collusion with the Church of Light. Also, tell them about the ultimate weapon project. At the same time, you have to issue a notice to the grassland that any race can exchange a head of the bullfighting tribe for 500 kilograms of food if they bring it to the old camp of the herculean divine bull tribe. Children and women can be exchanged for 500 kilograms of food by half! &Quot;
Weyers and Yale couldn’t help but shiver. What Zhao Hai had said earlier was still acceptable. The damage to the bullfighting race was limited. Even if the bullfighting race cooperated with the Church of Light, it wouldn’t be a big deal to the fleeing bullfighting race. They could say that it was the decision of their patriarch and had nothing to do with them. However, exchanging heads for food was really too cruel.
Food was really important to the orc tribe, especially those small tribes. If those small tribes encountered the bullfighting tribe, they would definitely not let go of this opportunity to exchange food. It could be said that once this announcement was made, the bullfighting tribe would be exterminated.
Weyers and Yale both stared at Zhao Hai in shock. They couldn’t help but gulp. This move of Zhao Hai’s was too vicious. They had never seen it before.
“What’s wrong?” Zhao Hai asked. Big brother, don’t forget, we have plenty of food in our hands now. In the warehouse, in addition to your original supplies, there are also supplies from bullfighting. It can be said that you have more supplies than before. Plus, I have so much food here, so why don’t we use it to do something?”
Bang! Bang! Weyers slammed the table and said, ” “Okay, little hai, you’re right. We’ll do it this way. I want the bullfighting tribe to disappear from the Prairie. However, I originally wanted to turn them into slaves and give them to you, but I can’t do that.”
“You can give me the people from King XI Qi’s side, how about that?” Zhao Hai smiled.
Weyers laughed. &Quot; alright, let’s do it this way then. Sixth brother, pass down the order. We’ll set off for King XI Qi’s camp in three days. I want to see how this ungrateful King XI Qi will resist the Army of my vigorous divine ox tribe! &Quot;
Zhao Hai smiled and stopped talking. To be honest, he had never thought of exterminating the bullfighting race. However, after seeing how the bullfighting race treated the prisoners of the Hercules bull race, Zhao Hai changed his mind. Moreover, the bullfighting race was working with the church of Light, which was Zhao Hai’s mortal enemy. Naturally, Zhao Hai would not show any mercy to his enemies.
After being on the ark continent for so long and experiencing so many things, Zhao Hai’s heart had slowly hardened. He knew that if he was too kind to his enemy, he would be making things difficult for himself. He had to eliminate his enemy by the roots.
Zhao Hai looked at Wales and asked,”big brother, have you calculated the losses this time?” Or, how many people, resources, and goats do we still have in our tribe? have you calculated all these?”
Before Weyers could say anything, Yale said,”I’ve already counted all of this. Before the attack, our clan had a total population of 1329000, but now we have about 800000. This number is only for the current number of people in the old camp. I believe that there are still many people from the herculean divine ox clan who have fled to other parts of the Prairie. As long as the news of US taking back the old camp spreads, they should be able to return.”It should be around one million. We lost more than 300000 people in total. We didn’t lose too many people in this attack. We only lost less than 10000 people, most of which were women and old people. We can’t count the number of the coiled sheep for the time being because we haven’t counted the total number of our original coiled sheep. Now that the bullfighting race’s coiled sheep are added, the total number is even more. It’s easy to count the materials. The original materials of our tribe and the materials of the bullfighting race. It’s enough for a million people to live without worry for ten years, and the food is enough for five years. This time, the bullfighting tribe left us nearly 500000 slaves, so our tribe’s total population is about 1.3 million.”
Weyers and the others nodded. No wonder they couldn’t count how many sheep they had. The orcs usually didn’t check the sheep one by one. They usually split into groups and didn’t count how many sheep there were in a large group. When they did large transactions with humans, they didn’t check how many sheep there were. They just took turns!
What was charging? Humans would bring some supplies, and the orcs would take them to the flock of sheep. They would give the humans a horse and ask them to charge into the flock of sheep. When you charged through the flock, you would split the flock. The one on the left would be yours, and the one on the right would be the orcs’. It all depended on the humans ‘skills. If the humans were skilled, you would get more sheep. If the humans were not skilled, you could not blame others.
This kind of trading method was only suitable for large tribes. It was not possible for small tribes. They had a limit on how many sheep they had. One sheep was one sheep, and each sheep was their property. They could not trade by rotation.
This was also the reason why humans were willing to trade with the larger orcs. Some of the humans who were good at riding could often get several times more crouching sheep than normal trade.
The reason why the orcs treated the slaves so well was that the big races had too many coiled sheep. They needed these slaves to take care of the coiled sheep. Therefore, the average big race didn’t know how many coiled sheep they had. They only knew how many flocks of coiled sheep they had. However, they were sure that the number of coiled sheep in each big race was counted in the units of tens of millions.
But the coiling sheep in the hands of the herculean bull tribe were originally from their own tribe. Adding on the ones that the bullfighting tribe had, it was equivalent to the number of coiling sheep of the two major races combined. This number was extremely shocking.
Zhao Hai also nodded, ” “I still have a lot of mutton and soup with me. They can be used as food for this expedition. But big brother, I was just joking with you. I can’t make the bullfighting race my slaves. The bullfighting race is considered a powerful race among the bullmen. It’s a pity for them to be my slaves. If you really want to give me slaves, just give me some ordinary slaves. You can completely control the bullfighting race. Wouldn’t it be better to make them a powerful team in your hands?”
&Quot; then, ” Wales frowned, ” does that mean we still have to carry out our plan of exchanging food for heads? ”
Zhao Hai smiled, ” of course we’re going to do it. This time, you can take all of King XI Qi’s subordinates as your prisoners. You can even make them your slaves. As for those who escaped, you don’t have to be polite. I don’t think anyone will come to the vigorous divine ox tribe’s old nourishment to kill your slaves and then use their heads to exchange for food, right? ”
Weyers and the others laughed out loud. To be honest, Weyers had already calmed down. He knew that it wasn’t appropriate to give the bullfighting race to Zhao Hai as slaves. The bullfighting race was very powerful. If they were given to Zhao Hai, it would be equivalent to giving Zhao Hai a huge problem. Weyers had treated Zhao Hai as his own brother, so he naturally didn’t want to cause Zhao Hai any trouble.
Moreover, as Zhao Hai had said, the bullfighting race was one of the few powerful races among the Tauren race. If they were destroyed, it would greatly affect the combat power of the entire race. Therefore, Weyers did not object to Zhao Hai’s decision to not take the slaves. On the contrary, he felt that Zhao Hai was more considerate. He had thought of almost everything for him.
The few of them chatted about the herculean divine ox tribe for a while before Zhao Hai returned to his own tent. The herculean divine ox tribe had just been rebuilt. Some of the original management personnel had either died or disappeared. Now, they had to appoint new management personnel. This was an internal matter of the herculean divine ox tribe. Although Zhao Hai was their Prince, he was a human after all. He did not want to meddle too much in such matters. This would give the herculean divine ox clan the impression that he was taking advantage of their kindness to seize power. Zhao Hai did not want that to happen.
Zhao Hai returned to his tent in the center of the herculean divine ox tribe’s campsite. It was very big and had a Brazier inside. It was very warm inside the tent, and Laura and the others finally didn’t have to wear thick clothes.
