The arrival of the main force of the Grim Bear Army near the disappeared Cahokia civilization means that it has entered the core area of ​​the Elena.

What made Stone Bear feel puzzled was that even if the scouts under the Bobcats explored dozens of kilometers away, they did not find the Elanai troops. Only a few Elaine people who were old, weak, sick, and disabled were found.

The Lynx reported another news, saying that a small Elene tribe had been found not far from here. The scouts had brought all the capable people over, and they were now interrogating.

Shi Xiong immediately followed. After some interrogation, Shi Xiong realized that the dozen or so Elene people headed by an old man were a small tribe of Cahokia people under the Elene people. .

Yes, although the Cahokia civilization was destroyed by a super flood four hundred years ago, this civilization was not completely cut off. There are still some people who survived that flood. These people constitute the present Cahokian.

It's just that these Cahokias no longer have the prestige of their ancestors, and they can only live under the shelter of the Ilenei.

"Running, they all ran away, taking away the things and people that can be taken away from the tribe, and only those of us who can't walk are left waiting for death in the tribe..." This name is called The old man of "Chabaru" spoke about the situation here with an indescribable expression on his face.

Shi Xiong saw clearly that the expression on Chabalu's face was called "death". It was obvious that they had no love for them who were abandoned by the tribe.

"They said that the devil from the south is coming, and the devil from the south will kill everyone here. They also said that the bravest warrior in the tribe can't resist the devil, so if you want to survive, you must follow the Iraqi The Lenais ran north...We can't run anymore, we can't keep up with the footsteps of those young people, so we can only wait for death here...but you really Is this the devil?"

Chabaru looked at the dozen or so old guys left in the tribe with him who were devouring the fragrant food, and then looked down at the kind that he was holding in his hand that was also presumptuous. Involuntarily drooling and scented food, I asked very puzzledly, and then he opened his mouth and ate it in spite of it.

Shi Xiong sighed, feeling very sad.

This Chabaru and the remaining old people are obviously ordinary Cahokias with little knowledge. Perhaps this Chabaru has been farming and hunting in a radius of tens of kilometers around his entire life. They have never seen outside. What the world is like, I have never heard of Indian tribes other than the Ilene.

But it was such an old man who had contributed his whole life to his tribe, but was eventually abandoned without hesitation, which made this old man feel very sad.

However, Chabaru and the "devil" that these old people think came from the south, but now they have given them the most delicious food and given them the hope of living again.

Who is the devil anyway?

With a "bang", Kuaima, who returned to the big tent, patted the palm of his hand heavily on the table, "These **** Elenas, how can they abandon their people and run away alone?" Obviously, and Kuaima, who is the same age as Shixiong, looks down on this kind of abandonment of the tribe.

Shi Xiong patted his little friend on the shoulder, motioning him to be safe and restless.

"Quaima, you forgot that when we were fighting the Comanche in the Southwest a few years ago, didn't that guy who was called the new chief and fled with his cronies after he declared himself the new chief?"

"Boss, that guy seems to be called De Keia." Bighorn sheep added from the side.

"Yes, it's that De Keia. That guy seems to be more ruthless than the chief of the Elene. At least when the Elene is escaping, he still knows that he will bring most of the things that can run. Tribe."

The bighorn sheep said quietly again: "Boss, that De Keia was cut off by the Apache..."

Almost silent, Shi Xiong waved his hand, "Forget it, I won’t mention these unpleasant things. It’s clear now that the Elenas have run away, and they probably had it a long time ago. There is a plan to escape, otherwise they won't run so neatly."

The big horn sheep said: "In fact, this is a good thing for us. The Ilene people gave up the site they had operated for hundreds of years, and they would not be able to find a better place in a short time. Without a good place, they would not be able to find a better place. Guarantee the rations of the tribe. Now the weather is warm. In a short period of time, these escaped Elenas may still be able to fill their stomachs with hunting and fishing, but problems will inevitably occur over time, especially after autumn and winter. It’s hard for them to survive in the cold north. Boss, we should speed up. These Elene people can’t let them starve to death and freeze to death in the wilderness."

Shi Xiong nodded silently, he was also thinking about this issue just now.

The bighorn sheep continued to analyze and said: "There is another possibility, that is, the Elene people have already agreed with the Chippewa people farther north, and these Elene people may be attached to the Chippewa people."

Kuima said: "Then just speed up and pursue it! Whether or not the Ileneites are mingled with the Chippewas, it is not a problem for us. Besides, the Chippewas are originally us this year. The goal of conquest, instead of dragging it, it is better to give them all in a pot.

After a pause, Kuaima said again: “It’s the middle of the month of flowers (May), and the summer harvest will be less than a month away. Boss, leave this to our first teacher, we If you take a boat along the big river north, you can directly touch the Chippewa's nest~lightnovelpub.net~ and solve the Chippewa as soon as possible. Maybe we can catch up with a wave of autumn grain planting."

Shi Xiong listened to his heart, and the big horn sheep smiled and applauded: "Boss, in fact, the method that Kuaima said is not a good way." Then, the big horn sheep pulled the map and opened it, "Boss, With the strength of the First Division, it is absolutely no problem to deal with a Chippewa in a small area. Moreover, whether the Elenas really depend on the Chippewa or not, the Chippewa will always be our goal this year. So we might as well divide our forces now. Move forward. Move all the ships here. The First Division, except for the cavalry, went up the river north by boat to directly attack the Chippewas, while the remaining troops went north by land and attacked the Miamians and Ottawas. If things go well, we can take down these tribes before planting autumn grains. Then we can arrange the planting of autumn grains while preparing for the winter. If everything goes well, our large troops will not even have to return to Beijing. You can spend the winter directly here! Then next year..."

The bighorn sheep's hands drew two arcs on the map. "The first division can attack eastward from the northern edge of the Great Lakes, and the other troops can attack eastward from the southern edge of the Great Lakes. By then, the Iroquois will have nowhere to go. Can escape!"

Not to mention, this temporary change strategy seems to be really good...
