Chapter 1222 is calculated
Although the tribal warriors hired by the Yinyue tribe are just ordinary warriors in each tribe, because the truly powerful warriors have been digested by the tribe themselves, only those warriors that the tribes look down on will leave their tribes and run to the most prosperous and prosperous southern holy mountain ring city to make a living.
However, even so, these soldiers are qualified soldiers. The quality may be average, but the quantity is sufficient. As usual, even if they are defeated, it is absolutely impossible to have annihilate the entire army.
So, when the news spread, everyone thought it was a rumor deliberately created by the Turquoise Tribe to slam the morale of the Silver Moon Tribe.
However, as the follow-up news came, everyone was silent in an instant, because it was a fact, not a rumor. As for the reason for the entire army's annihilation, everyone thought that the mercenary army's luck was too bad. Before preparing to attack the city, they happened to encounter a tide of mutant monsters. The mercenary army went directly to fight the tide of mutant monsters in the wild.
The result is conceivable. Without the city walls to defend against waves of mutant monsters, let alone the mercenary legion composed of these ordinary warriors, even those who have mastered extraordinary power form an army, it is probably difficult to compete with the mutant monsters that have emerged like a tide.
In the end, the legion hired by the Silver Moon Tribe for a large price did not cause any damage to the Sobans City of Sobans, and died in the jungle outside the Sobans City.
Although, after the news spread, some people thought that Sobans City was not saved by death and did not let the tribal warriors enter the city to avoid the tide of mutant monsters. Their actions were too cruel. They indirectly accused the Turquoise Tribe of not treating itself as a member of the Southern Tribe Alliance, so they watched the warriors of these southern tribes die one by one under the attack of mutant monsters.
This statement has been agreed by many people. After all, when the Huorong tribe joined the Southern Tribe Alliance, it offended many tribes. In recent years, it has had a quarrel with the surrounding tribes because of some interests. In the past, it was because the Yinyue tribe was supported by the Yinyue tribe, which made people unable to find an opportunity to take action. Now, since the Huorong tribe has had a quarrel with the Yinyue tribe and has lost this backer, those hostile tribes will naturally not miss any opportunity to put down the wrong end.
In addition to those tribes that were hostile in the past, some tribes also attacked the Turfur tribe because their tribe warriors joined the mercenary group and died in the tide of mutant monsters.
They did not really pay attention to those tribal warriors, but they just felt that the soldiers in their tribe died too shameful. If they died in a battle with the Turquoise Tribe on the front battlefield, they might not have any complaints, but they were blocked outside the city by the Turquoise Tribe and died in the tide of mutant monsters. In their opinion, this way of death was a shame, not only the shame of the warriors, but also the shame of the tribe.
However, not all tribes agree with the statement that the Turban tribe is too cruel. They feel that since the purpose of the mercenary group to attack Sobans outside the city was to attack Sobans, then they and the Turban tribe were enemies. Sobans naturally had no obligation to save their enemies. What's more, if the mercenary group was placed in the city, then if the mercenary group suddenly attacked and seized the city, Sobans City would have no resistance at all, so the approach of Sobans City was the most reasonable.
However, no matter what they discussed, they always revolved around the complete defeat of the mercenary group, what will the next step of the Yinyue tribe, how will the Huorong tribe use this news to expand its advantages, etc. Although the entire mercenary group was wiped out this time, most tribes in the Southern Tribe Alliance still believed that the Yinyue tribe would be the ultimate winner, because the Yinyue tribe did not receive any losses except for some interests.
Although some people mentioned in these discussions that the mutant monster tide appeared strangely, perhaps because the Turfur tribe Sobans City was caused by some method, which was to use the mutant monster tide to destroy the invading mercenary corps, this statement was quickly submerged in other discussions and did not attract anyone's attention.
Because almost everyone knows that mutant monsters are uncontrollable, even the shamans in the Holy Mountain can only speculate on the number and approximate location of mutant monsters hidden in the forest by observing the status of various surrounding creatures, and then infer the qualifying time period of the mutant monster tide.
If the Turquoise Tribe could really accurately control the time and place of the mutant monster tide, and even control the number of mutant monsters, then the Turquoise Tribe would not have the current status. It might have conquered the entire North and South tribe alliance and become the unique king of the Wasteland Tribe. It would not be difficult to conquer the civilized world outside the Wasteland Tribe.
However, compared to the tribe's thoughts, Leo and Sylvia, who heard the relevant news, both thought that the emergence of this mutant monster wave was probably related to Sobans. However, neither of them was very sure how Sobans did this, but their intuition told them that strangers might have played a role in this matter.
This incident did not have much impact on Leo and Sylvia. The only impact was that the market for weapons seemed to have been greatly increased because of this war. The great shaman who was stationed in the Holy Mountain in the Silver Moon Tribe also came to the office of the Dodd Group in person and met Sylvia with the purpose of getting better weapons from Sylvia. It seems that they are preparing to do a big fight.
Sylvia did not agree to the other party immediately. It was not that she didn't want to reach the deal, but because she had no goods on hand for the time being.
Although the weapons and equipment produced from Xinbodo headquarters have already started to be transported, it will take at least one month to transport them to the Southern Tribal Alliance. There is no stopping it on the road, and there are no accidents without any accidents. If any accidents occur on the road, then this time will inevitably need to be delayed.
Now the various goods stored by the Dodd Group in the warehouse of the southern Holy Mountain are only enough to complete the weapons and grain transactions between the farming tribes. It is impossible to take out an additional batch of weapons and equipment to provide them to the Silver Moon Tribe.
Seeing this, the great shaman of the Silver Moon Tribe could only settle for the second best and look for other weapon suppliers. Although the weapons provided by those people cannot compare with the weapons of the Dod Group in terms of quality, and most of them are cold weapons and old models of crossbows, they are better than nothing, and at least they can meet the minimum usage needs of tribal warriors.
"I think this is a bit strange." After the great shaman of the Silver Moon Tribe left, Sylvia said to Leo with a serious expression.
Leo thought for a while and confirmed: "Are you saying that the Southern Tribal Alliance demanding too much weapons?"
Sylvia nodded and said, "Think about the contract we have negotiated, plus the order mentioned by the Silver Moon Tribe, these weapons transactions are already the total amount of weapons transactions in the past ten years of the Southern Tribe Alliance. This is not counted as the weapon transaction volume of the Turquoise Tribe, the Mixed Tribe and some other neutral tribes. If calculated in this way, it can be said that everyone in the entire Southern Tribe Alliance holds at least two weapons in their hands. This is no longer a small conflict and a small war between the two tribes, but more like the entire Southern Tribe Alliance preparing for the pre-war preparations."
Leo heard this and pondered for a moment, saying, "Do you think this is the Southern Tribal Alliance secretly preparing to launch a big war under the guise of the conflict between the Silver Moon Tribe and the Turfur Tribe?"
Sylvia nodded and said, "I think so a little bit."
Leo frowned and said with a different opinion: "But the problem is that the Silver Moon Tribe and the Turfur Tribe are not fake. The Southern Tribe Alliance is preparing for a foreign war in this situation, which seems to..."
Sylvia interrupted Leo and gave another guess: "What if the Southern Tribal Alliance is not launching a foreign war, but is preparing to have a civil war?"
Leo was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then thought about it carefully. Although he still thought that Sylvia's guess was wrong, he could not deny that there was such a possibility.
There has always been an idea of establishing a country within the Southern Tribal Alliance, mainly because the Northern Tribal Alliance has established several tribal-themed countries at the junction of countries such as the United States and Galica. Although these countries are not very powerful and can only be regarded as city-states at best, the benefits are visible to the naked eye. The biggest advantage is that trade with the outside world will be carried out in the form of a country. In this way, the benefits gained in trade are far greater than the ultimate profits of a single tribe in trade transactions.
For example, if Sylvia had previously conducted weapons and grain transaction contracts with various farming tribes, if a unified state agency was negotiated instead of individual tribes pulling each other back, then the ultimate profits of these farming tribes would definitely be much greater than they are now.
However, no matter how well it is said or how great the interests are, this idea of establishing a country is still rejected by the vast majority of tribes in the Southern Tribal Alliance for reasons such as contrary to tradition.
No one said that these tribes are conservative. After all, the foundation of the establishment of the Southern Tribal Alliance is to return to tradition. Obviously, if a country is really established, then there is naturally no way to talk about the tribal tradition. In that case, it would be better to re-enter the Northern Tribal Alliance.
It is precisely because of the most core purpose of the Southern Tribal Alliance that Leo thought that Sylvia's speculation was wrong. In his opinion, at least before the crisis that could really affect the survival of the Southern Tribal Alliance appeared, the Southern Tribal Alliance could not truly unify into a country.
Sylvia also seemed to think of the loophole in his speculation. She did not argue with Leo, but imagined: "Can someone think that the conflict between the Silver Moon Tribe and the Turvous Tribe is not big enough, and wants to expand the conflict war to other tribes and cause more casualties."
Leo did not respond, but just nodded slightly. Although this idea was a bit whimsical, it was much more reliable than the previous idea of establishing a country.
But Leo still felt that it was unlikely, because as long as the Southern Holy Mountain existed, the various battles and conflicts of the Southern Tribal Alliance would not develop into a melee of the entire Tribal Alliance.
Leo and Sylvia did not spend much time on this question. They could not figure out the answer to this question, so they stopped thinking about it. After all, this matter had little to do with them. Even if the Southern Tribal Alliance had a full-scale civil war, they had no intention of intervening. They would only stand in a neutral position and sell various weapons to both sides. No matter what the final situation was, they were all winners, but the winner's gains were big and small.
Although neither Leo nor Sylvia intends to interfere in the Southern Tribal Alliance, some people are unwilling to see Leo and Sylvia live so easily, and they want to find something for the two of them.
The Dodd Group's office in the Southern Tribal Alliance is not only engaged in large-scale transactions of weapons and industrial products, but also in acquisitions and auctions, because people living in the wastelands can always inadvertently obtain a priceless thing. For example, a tribal child once caught a golden insect and made it into a specimen. As a result, this golden insect is an insect that has completely disappeared on other continents and is also very rare in the wastelands. It not only has extremely high collection value, but also a material that must be used in a special ceremony.
In the end, the insect specimen was acquired by the people of the Dodd Group Auction House. After being sent back to the headquarters, it was given to an underground force by Sylvia as a gift, and gained a large amount of urgently needed resources from that underground force.
There are many things like this low-priced acquisition and high returns, so Sylvia also attaches great importance to the auctions in the wasteland. The people sent to the scene are all knowledgeable and extraordinary people. Although they belong to the office in name, they are actually completely independent of their power.
As always, the auction acquired a gem, and Sylvia and Leo also saw the gem. They thought that this gem had no other value than being very beautiful, so they put the gem in the auction house for auction in exchange for other valuable things to the Dodd Group.
As a result, at the auction, someone discovered that this gem was actually a holy stone in the temple of the Silver Moon Tribe. Although this holy stone has no abnormal power, it has other symbolic meanings, as the symbol of a hero of the Silver Moon Tribe.
After discovering this, the person who presided over the auction was about to end the auction. No matter how dull the person was, he would feel that this was a provocation to the Yinyue Tribe.
But as a result, the Huoyun Tribe bought the things before the auction ended, and directly delivered the items they bid, completing the transaction as if they were ready, and took away the temple holy stone of the Silver Moon Tribe.
When the news of the auction reached Sylvia and Leo's ears, the Great Shaman of the Silver Moon Tribe also came directly to ask the matter. In the face of the question, Sylvia did not explain that he would directly let the Great Shaman of the Silver Moon Tribe get out, and then asked the office to issue an announcement that it would not provide any weapons and other resources to the Silver Moon Tribe, the Turfur Tribe and all other tribes involved in this conflict war.
