Chapter 420 Ethnicity
Chapter 420: Race
"On the Gobi Desert, Tianshuizhou is no longer the chassis of sand thieves, but a buffer zone between tribes and sand thieves. It is also an important place for trading. Tianshuizhou is also known as the sweet water collection. However, from Tianshuizhou and west, it is a business road that travels through the entire Gobi. In fact, this business road is a series of sand thieves gangs who have given up some supply points, especially water sources. Sand thieves are generally not stationed on the business road, and at most some people are left to maintain public order... On the contrary, those small sand thieves gangs do not care about anything except collecting money. Anyway, the caravans attack each other and trip up the other side, which seems too normal for them." Following Chi Lei, Tormu began to explain the distribution of the power of the sand thieves to Chi Lei in detail.
"If you want to talk about sand thieves, there are actually several opportunities to form a country from a gathering group, or at least a little farming and production, and develop various resources. However, on the one hand, there has been no strong enough force within, and on the other hand, the forces from the outside world do not allow it, and always fuel the chaos in the Gobi. Before the northern grassland, there were not many necessary consumables, let alone any necessities to introduce to the Gobi through trade. Most of the consumption of salt and tea in the Gobi came from those countries in the west and southwest. In this case, the other party needs a chaotic land trade road that connects the East and the West without being controlled by anyone, and naturally has various methods. And the Gobi Desert cannot have a large enough tribe, which is simple to say.
The living conditions in the country are poor and they are constantly attacking each other. Even the big leaders of larger forces will be lucky enough to live to their fifties.... If I had been living in the Gobi Desert, I would never have survived now. And once the big leaders die, they will split into several parties to fight each other, fight for inheritance, and run away with their subordinates. Anyway, as long as they can form a team, they will still have to rely on some major forces to survive, but it is not a way out. In recent years, major forces such as Kuangsha Banner have strengthened their control over the business road, and everyone's dependence on the business road has become increasingly greater, which has greatly reduced the speed of birth and destruction of small tribes. Now, if you dare to rob at will, the first one will definitely be those thieves who are more dependent on the business road..."
Listening to Tormu's faint narration, Chi Lei's eyes became brighter and brighter. Tormu is indeed a little capable, not just a guide, but a description of the power spectrum on the Gobi Desert. Although the sand thieves want to go south to obtain a lush water and grassland, they will have such ideas. If it weren't for the small and medium-sized forces who don't live well in the current power spectrum, or the large tribes who want to control one end of the trade in their hands. Chi Lei would understand why they have no trust in each other, and the distance between the troops is so far difficult to support each other. If Chi Lei hadn't respected the war of attrition, and with enough troops to supplement, Chi Lei might be able to defeat them one by one and stand up until the end. This situation would naturally be used by the senior general Chi Lei.
"Then what you said... to completely solve the problem, do you have any suggestions?" Chi Lei asked casually.
Tormud said very seriously: "Adults can ensure the consumption of salt and tea on the Gobi Desert from the East Road. In fact, this problem has been solved halfway. The current situation is that the closer to the east, the more difficult it is to obtain necessary things such as salt and tea. When we first proposed to create this business road, the first response was the stealing group in the east. Although it was not guaranteed that salt and tea could be imported, we could at least rely on the harvest on the business road to supplement our huge expenses in salt and tea and medicine, especially in recent years.
The good weapons from Yunzhou that came privately made the thieves in the east much better. However, the thieves I was in were destroyed because of this reason. Our boss not only began to actively plan business affairs, but also wanted to get the brothers to escort business groups from robbing business groups, but also made some things in our territory and could also take them to take out for food. Now everyone was worried. The boss was too big, and there were traitors among our group of people. Under the internal and external attacks, I was the only one who escaped with some young people."
Tormud's expression still did not fluctuate at all, as if what he said was not his own business at all. He continued: "Input salt and tea, but try to control the inflow of various commodities. When the business road cannot function normally, in order to survive and to compete for limited living resources, the Gobi Desert will inevitably be in chaos. Of course, this also requires a premise, that must be this time, to establish a great power, so that no one can be confident that he can get a good idea in front of your military power, and he will not dare to peek at the grassland in the near future."
"With the combat power of the adults, it is natural to establish their authority. However, it is not interesting to sweep across both sides of the business road so slowly. If I agree, I suggest that I ask me to lead the army to attack and not be very far away from here, about... a medium-sized thief regiment of 170 or 80 miles. Frankly speaking, the thief regiment occupied by this thief regiment is where the Kinmen Banner I was born in. This thief regiment has a population of about 35,600, and according to the proportion of combatants in the thief regiment, there are about 10,000 cavalrymen. However, although the thief regiment has the advantage of military strength, it is inevitable that I will pay some price to capture the lairs that others have been operating for many years. Now, although this thief regiment is also called Kinmen Banner, I think the old people I know inside,
There are probably only a few, and I'm afraid there is no way to help the adults too much. However, the Kinmen Flag is a very important link in the chain of a series of thieves on the entire business road. In terms of tactics, it is also called a key point. After taking the Kinmen Flag, it can directly threaten the supply of most thieves prepared to go south. Although the sand thieves have never paid attention to supply, they cannot live with sand after all. If they are lucky, there are many food and grass from other tribes in the Kinmen Flag. But there are also pros and cons. You also know that everyone cannot trust each other, so if there are a lot of things, they will definitely be stuffed with many people." Tormud introduced the current situation of the Kinmen Flag, which has nothing to do with him.
"That's it?" Chi Lei asked meaninglessly.
