Big Ear Thief Selling Straw Sandals

"Da da da!"

"Da da da!"

The gun barrel, as thick as an arm, sprayed hot bullets freely, like a metal storm.

At the temporary base of the Dahan Bipolar Scientific Expedition Team, on the defense line composed of horse-drawn carriages, one to the east and one to the west, two air-cooled "Metal Storm" machine guns were firing wildly at a thousand steps away.

On the vast grassland, the ice and snow melt, and the earth returns to spring.

Two thousand Xiagar tribe warriors on horseback are charging towards the "invading enemy".

Many people beat the weak, and the weak are eaten by the strong. This is the simple truth of the grassland.

"Those enemies will kill all the men in the tribe, rob our property and women, and take our children as slaves! Go ahead and use the heads of your enemies to prove your loyalty and bravery! God will bless you !”

Under the intimidation and encouragement of the Xia Gartou people, all the warriors rushed forward with confidence.

The other side only has dozens of enemies, and there are still more than thirty to one on our side.

Attack from both front and back to win.

Kill all the men, seize horses, vehicles, money, women and everything else.

15-year-old Qi Lu brandished a machete and followed his tribe to join the ranks of killing enemies.

A cowardly enemy who dares not accept a duel from a Shagar warrior is a complete coward.

A coward cannot survive on the grassland, so it is better to die.

Lu Lu, who had just become a warrior this year, even though he only had a war horse and a scimitar, as long as he was brave enough, he could get a lot of cattle, sheep, women and slaves, and he could have a large group of children.

If you are lucky, you can become a powerful adult, and maybe get a good pasture, and then you can live a life like a fairy.

Be brave, I am brave, I want to become a powerful adult.

However, things gradually became strange.

Many tribesmen in front will suddenly fall off their horses.

Lu Lu didn't believe that those people were not good at equestrian skills. You must know that in the tribe, some six or seven-year-old children can ride horses and gallop, let alone warriors.

He stood on the horse and looked forward. The grass was flat, unobstructed, and without any enemies.

Suddenly, there was a place where the cavalry was densely packed. In an instant, three or four knights fell on their backs and were trampled by the horses behind them.

Before he could react, three or four more fell down.

What happened to them?What happened?How strange!

Suddenly, a special sound, "Whoosh!" passed by his ears and caught his attention.

Like an arrow?

Arrows!

No, how is it possible?

There is a distance of five hundred steps. Even the most powerful eagle hand cannot shoot this far.

Moreover, it seems that these voices are becoming more and more frequent.

Smart people can summarize and always grasp the key points in the face of limited information, and Lu Lu happens to be such a smart person.

Soon, he discovered that in areas where tribesmen were densely packed, there were more "whooshing" sounds, and the proportion of people falling off their horses was significantly higher than in loose areas.

Could it be that the enemies coming from the south had a type of crossbow that they had never seen or heard of, and could project their arrows to such a distance?

Suddenly, the head of the knight next to Lu Lu exploded in an instant, and red and white splashed all over him.

Lu Lu immediately lay down on the horse and consciously moved towards the edge area where there were few people.

When the tribesmen entered three hundred steps, knights and horses fell in pieces in the intensive frontal charge.

"Swish, swish, swish!" The sound also became louder and seemed to never stop.

If there is a war, there will be casualties. The prairie people who come and walk naked are never afraid of death.

Compared with the cruel and dark winter that just passed, returning to the gods after dying in battle is a matter of pride and honor.

The fat-headed leader of a group of wives and concubines once said: Foreigners are all evil and barbaric, and their rhetoric is to destroy our spiritual support.

The foreigners are a group of blasphemers, a group of paper tigers, and the mortal enemies of everyone in the tribe. In order to protect our lofty beliefs, go ahead!
Lu Lu found in despair that the foreigners were too terrifying. After crossing the three hundred-step line, more than half of the tribesmen's warriors fell.

They are not paper tigers!

They are more powerful than wild beasts!

One hundred steps later, there were only two or three hundred cavalry scattered on the entire charge line, and every one of them was confused and frightened.

However, the prairie people are simple-minded and do whatever the leader says. Even though their partners fall one after another, everyone still rushes forward.

Because, if they disobey the leader's orders, the tribesmen will suffer cruel punishment, compared with which, death can be called a mercy.

Fortunately, the tribesmen dispersed, and the dense "swish, swish, swish!" sounds turned into "ta da, da da da, da da, da da da!"

Just when Lu Lu raised his head, just as the Xiaga warriors accelerated their sprint, a sound of "bang bang bang" suddenly sounded from behind the vehicle.

Then, the tribesmen who rushed to the front fell to the ground one by one.

"Ta-da, ba-ba-ba! Ta-ta-da, ba-ba-ba!"

The two voices intertwined together, like a death song, and the number of people in the tribe visibly decreased.

Finally, more than a hundred warriors rushed forward thirty steps, but had to slow down and circle around the vehicle.

The cunning enemy hides behind the carriage and cannot shoot arrows or chop. He must find a gap as soon as possible and rush in.

However, the vehicles were connected end to end, forming a ring without any flaws.

"Ta-da, ba-ba-ba! Ta-ta-da, ba-ba-ba!"

Almost every time there was a sound, a tribesman fell down. This was not a battle, this was a butcher slaughtering a lamb!

Fifty steps away, Lu Lu was stiff. He could feel that he was being targeted, like a poisonous snake in the grass. He believed that if he took a step forward, he would be hit.

The fear in his heart made him dare not move. He watched the naive tribesmen fall one after another, yelling and angry like headless flies, waving their swords and guns, and shooting arrows randomly.

When the last tribesman fell to the ground, the "ta-da" and "pop-pop" sounds stopped.

Corpses littered the fields, and screams and cries for help filled the charge line.

From behind the vehicle, a lame old guy got out, jumped on the horse and came to Lu Lu.

He held a wooden pole in his hand, with the metal tube at the front pointed at him.

Yes, the snake-like feeling comes from this weird wooden pole.

"Hey kid! What's your name?"

Lu Lu was surprised that the other party could actually speak the language of the Nata tribe?

Although the pronunciation of this language is different from that of Xaga, Lulu understands it.

What he didn't understand was that the Nata tribe, which was adjacent to Shagar, had been annexed by his own tribe. How could anyone still speak the Nata language?

But Lu Lu understood very well that now he was the prisoner of the other party, which was equivalent to a slave, and he had no rights from now on.

"Master, my name is Lu Lu."

Brother Beggar raised his eyebrows and asked, "We are going to the farthest point in the north to inspect. We just passed by without any harm. We also gave your leader some wine, so why are you attacking us?"

Lu Lu was stunned for a moment and asked in disbelief: "Aren't you here to beat us? Are you going to steal cattle, sheep, women and slaves?"

Brother Beggar understood, but he was too lazy to explain that after killing nearly a thousand people, there was no point in talking nonsense.

"Tsk, did you see us robbing you?"

Lu Lu was stunned.

Seeing is believing, hearing is not.

He did not witness the robbery by the foreigners, nor did the tribesmen. Everything they knew was told by the leader.However, Lu Lu is not stupid, he can tell whether what Brother Qipa said is true or false.

The other party gave the leader wine, but he was just passing by and had no intention of robbing the war. It seemed like the truth.

So, the leader lied, and he actually deceived all the clan members!
Lu Lu looked at the injured and injured fellow clan members around him and asked sadly: "They are all the best warriors..."

"Wrong!" Brother Beggar said: "They are all idiots! You are the only one who is somewhat clever and knows how to stay still. You can take as many wounded people back as you like, but I warn you, don't do anything random again. Otherwise, no matter how many people die, they will die!"

After saying that, Brother Beggar returned to the car formation with disdain.

The scientific expedition team fought more than ten times, large and small, this time was considered the biggest.

However, I have never seen prairie people go back on their word and actually want to kill the scientific expedition team after accepting the wine. Do you really think that "win-win" means winning twice?

If it weren't for discipline, Brother Qipa would have led a team to annihilate the Xiagar tribe, hang the leader who was greedy and shameless and harmed the tribesmen, or beat him with holes all over his body with a machine gun!
However, he also told Lu Lu the truth of the matter.

He believed that Lu Lu, who knew the truth, and the wounded who were still alive knew who was the sinner of the tribe, and might call on the people to overthrow the leader.

However, what follows is the internal affairs of the Xiagar tribe. As the most advanced civilized country in the world, the Han Dynasty will not easily interfere.

The vehicles of the scientific expedition team continue to go north. They sleep in the open air and are not afraid of hardships in order to find the truth about the world.

However, Lu Lu only found more than 400 lightly wounded people, and many seriously injured tribesmen could not be treated. Lu Lu and his companions helped them get away.

When this group of Xiagar warriors who had narrowly escaped death returned to their tribal garrison, the leader's heavily armed guards surrounded them in advance.

The captain of the guard said with a cold face: "God's will, you must commit suicide!"

Lu Lu was shocked!
"What! Why do we have to commit suicide?"

The captain of the guard sneered: "You cowards let the foreigners run away, and you are all sinners of the tribe! The gods are already angry! If you don't die, the entire tribe will be in trouble!"

"It's not fair! We have tried our best. They were just passing by and gave gifts to the leader. They did not rob us!"

The guard captain's expression changed drastically, he pulled out his long knife and shouted: "How dare you question the gods? It's a heinous crime, kill them all!"

Two hundred guards swarmed forward and slaughtered the wounded.

Many wounded did not die on the way to the charge, but died in vain at the hands of their own tribe.

The scene of the massacre was horrific.

Lu Lu was indeed a clever man. When the guard captain drew his sword, he galloped backwards.

He can't die. If he dies, no one will reveal the truth about the leader's deception.

As luck would have it, the rear did not respond and the defense was not tight. Lu Lu miraculously escaped from the encirclement after slashing two guards.

He made a big circle and hid in the grass, evading the search of his guards.

When he took advantage of the darkness and quietly returned to his tent, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

His tent was reduced to ashes, and his parents, sisters, including his new wife, all died naked.

When he was heartbroken and wanted to assassinate the leader alone, his good brother Ledai found him in time.

"Lulu, the leader is waiting for you, come with me!"

In the grass dang, listening to Ledai's story, Lu Lu realized that he was a traitor to the tribe, his family had all been executed, and everyone who saw him was obliged to kill him.

"Lu Lu, I don't believe you are a traitor! What is going on between you and the foreigners?"

Lu Lu, who suppressed his grief and anger, told Ledai everything he saw and heard.

"...I stopped. They didn't beat me, didn't make me a slave, and asked me to bring the wounded back. They weren't like what the leader said..."

But Lu Lu quickly shut up. He found that Ledai's eyes did not believe him at all.

After being silent for a while, Ledai sighed.

"Lu Lu, you have offended the gods, and the tribe must not stay here any longer. I will not arrest you, nor will I report it to the leader, but you can run away as far as you want, and don't come back!"

Lu Lu's heart was bleeding, and he asked tremblingly: "Ledai, you don't believe me?"

"What's the use of whether I believe it or not? You have brought disaster to the tribe, and the tribe members want to kill you. Let's go before I change my mind!"

Lu Lu was desperate. Where could he go after leaving the tribe?
On the grassland, a lone wolf cannot survive.

"Where can I go?"

Leicheng shook his head, mounted his horse and left.

Lu Lu pulled out the machete and held it against his heart, his hand trembling.

After several times, he still couldn't stop.

At this time, Ledai came back quietly again, looking down at the painful Lu Lu.

"Since you said the foreigners are so good, you can go find them and get out of here!"

After saying that, Ledai turned his horse's head and galloped away.

Looking for foreigners?
Lu Lu suddenly stood up, looked at his brother's back, and shouted, "Wait for me, I'll be back!"

Three days later, Mihaya rescued a dying herdsman from near the camp.

Brother Qipa recognized him as the only smart person in the Shagar tribe.

"It seems that the Xia Gar head people are very cruel!"

Cao Wan decided to rescue this "lone wolf" who was expelled from his own race.

The team doctor quickly diagnosed that it was mainly due to hunger, fatigue, and coma caused by mental and physical exhaustion. There was nothing serious for the time being, so he gave Lu Lu a bottle of glucose water.

As the time entered March, the mud in the far north was rolling in, and the vehicle was not going smoothly, so it was stop-and-go.

When Lulu woke up, through Brother Qipa's translation, the scientific expedition team learned about the cruelty of the Xiagar tribe leader and was deeply saddened.

Lu Lu knelt on the ground and begged everyone to overthrow the leader and save the people.

Gao Miao Niang was even more furious: "If the leader who oppresses the people like this is not killed, will he still be allowed to celebrate the New Year?"

Cao Wan shook her head and said: "We are a scientific expedition team. Our main task is scientific research and exploring the path for human civilization. Political and military issues are handled by the Prime Minister's Yamen."

Gao Zheng also agreed with Cao Wan's opinion: "Science is science and should not be interfered with by politics, nor should it interfere with politics. Miao Niang, just do your part."

The three leaders have all said this. No matter how much others have opinions, they can only express their helplessness to Lu Lu.

Lu Lu doesn't understand. You clearly see the suffering people, but you sit back and ignore them. Is it ridiculous?
The talk of being more civilized and advanced is all lies.

But no matter how angry he was, it would not help, and since he really had nowhere to go, he could only stay in the scientific expedition team for the time being and follow him northward.

Two days later, Gao Zheng and Brother Qipa suddenly found Lu Lu.

"What? Still can't figure it out?"

Lu Lu snorted angrily: "I understand, no matter how small your troubles are, they are bigger than our losing our heads. You are very civilized and noble!"

"Well, although they were words of loyalty, there are some things you missed."

The other party was full of sarcasm, but Gao Zheng looked pleasant and not angry at all.

"What? Where's the omission?"

"If you want others to save you, you must save yourself first. If you don't try your best yourself, no matter how hard others try, it won't help."

What do you mean?
Gao Zheng continued: "You asked us Han people to rescue the tribesmen, then can you tell us what you and your tribesmen did in order to get rid of the oppression?"

Lu Lu was stunned.

After thinking for a long time, he said: "If we resist, many people will die, but your weapons are very powerful and can easily defeat the leader's guards..."

Gao Zheng smiled and said: "From what I heard, it seems that you are the only one in the entire tribe who resists. Even if we defeat the guards, can you guarantee that all the tribesmen are willing to overthrow the leader? What do you think we should do if they turn against us?"

Lu Lu was speechless at this moment.

Gao Zheng patted him on the shoulder and said: "We will return in three months. During this period, it depends on what you do." (End of Chapter)
