#96 - Chapter 20: “Simple” Folk Customs
Mosso also felt that Colin was right, and he immediately agreed: "Colin, you're right, we must strengthen our defenses. You go back immediately and bring all your people back to Qalasa."
Colin didn't waste any words, and as soon as he walked out of the big tent, he greeted his subordinates, jumped on his horse, and galloped away.
Yuga leaned over and said, "Father, should we take the opportunity to take back his people?"
Mosso slapped him on the back of the head and scolded, "You idiot! I am still the Khal, and the weakening of those Kos means that the strength of the Qalasa is even weaker! I'm afraid that before you take over as Khal, the entire Qalasa will cease to exist. You get back immediately and bring all your people back!" Yuga walked away with a confused look. Khal Mosso sighed helplessly. He wanted Yuga to take over as Khal in the future, but his son's ability was limited and he couldn't support him no matter what. He turned his head and saw the map in Dilo's hand, beckoned him to bring it over, unfolded the leather roll and looked at it repeatedly, the more he looked, the tighter his frown became. He said to several blood guards, "You guys immediately tell everyone to get the warriors ready to set off at any time."
"Yes, Khal!" "Yes, Khal!" "Yes, Khal!"
Colin Ko led the guard and hurried back, he was getting more and more anxious and always felt uneasy. If it weren't for considering the endurance of the war horses, he would have wanted to travel day and night. As a result, less than a day after leaving Qalasa, he met his people on the way. He almost didn't recognize them, everyone was disheveled and walking on foot. They looked very tired, with only a few livestock for food. The entire tribe didn't even have a horse, and those simple carriages were pulled by people.
Colin almost fell headfirst, and barely managed to steady himself to avoid falling off his horse. Countless tribesmen gathered around him, describing their previous miserable experiences in a jumble.
After listening for a long time, Colin finally understood what had happened. It turned out that an alien army had attacked them, and the most crucial thing was that most of them were Dothraki. The leader was actually Misda Ko, who had been missing for a long time, and was also a well-known warrior in Qalasa, and many people knew him.
Colin was also a decisive person, and immediately greeted the warriors: "Nadu, take a few people to scout to the north. The others protect the tribe, and divide some horses to pull the goods. We will set off to the north immediately!"
Someone asked strangely, "Ko, why are we going to the north? Shouldn't we return to Qalasa?"
Colin didn't even look at him and said, "Misda has already defected to the enemy, and the other side has successively attacked Sabo and our garrison, and may have already set their sights on the entire Mosso Qalasa. If we go back like this, we may die in the next attack. So we can only seek refuge with Lologo Khal, whose strength is still relatively complete, to ensure the safety of the tribe." There was also a sentence he didn't say, if he went back like this, Mosso Khal would definitely swallow all his people, what would be the fate of him, the Ko, at that time?
.................................
The original ruins of Vis Tarit had been cleared out, and the Sun and Moon Legion had been stationed here for more than a month. With enough manpower, Liu Yuan asked people to cut down wood from the hills behind and repair the place properly. In addition, the idle slaves tidied up the fields outside and had already harvested a crop of barley.
When Liu Yuan returned with the spoils, the infantry team led by Philin had already returned. Despite some selection, more than 4,000 people had been added this time. Now the legion had expanded to more than 30,000 or nearly 40,000 people, which was a considerable force no matter where it was placed. Even the well-known Golden Group on the Essos continent was far inferior, and it could even pose a threat to the Free Trade City States.
Liu Yuan knew very well that he had been delayed here for too long, and that for a long time to come, his focus of development should be in the north of Westeros. At least until the communication methods were improved, it was not suitable for full-scale development.
He rested here for another three days, mainly to pack his luggage. A team of nearly 40,000 people had a lot of things to prepare for a long journey. Fortunately, they had a large number of cattle, horses and other livestock, and their mobility had been greatly improved. Those new captives and slaves also needed to be well trained. The wheat fields outside the stronghold were also harvested in one afternoon. Although they were not fully ripe, it didn't matter for a few days, mainly because there were enough people.
After some integration, the huge team set off. Nearly 40,000 people and hundreds of thousands of livestock, all kinds of large and small vehicles, thousands of them stretched for more than ten kilometers, forcibly widening the road in the forest by more than half.
Liu Yuan rode on his war horse, stroking the golden dragon egg on the saddle with one hand. He found that this helped the development of the dragon egg, and a small part of the spiritual energy absorbed by running his internal energy would also seep into the eggshell. Perhaps he could hatch the dragon egg sooner. In his impression, dragons grow very fast, and perhaps in a few years he could ride it across the sea.
He was watching the slaves cut down the bamboo on both sides of the road. That's right, it was bamboo. It was the kind of thick green bamboo as thick as a bowl. God knows how there could be bamboo in this world? Moreover, there seemed to be no relevant records in the Citadel. Misda also introduced that this plant is very common in the east, very east. Thin slices after cutting are extremely tough when soaked in horse oil. The Dothraki's riding bows are mixed with this kind of thin slices to increase elasticity. Therefore, the Dothraki riding bows have a longer range than the longbows of Westeros.
The legion spent a full five days to get out of this not-so-small hilly area. When he left the forest, there was a rushing river in front of him. This is the Sehoryu River, which originates in the southern Kohor forest and eventually flows into the north-south Lorn River. The river they encountered in the forest was also a tributary of the Sehoryu River. Here, the two tributaries meet to form an abundant river, flowing to the southwest.
It just so happened that the bamboo collected before came in handy. There were also many craftsmen in the team, and a pontoon bridge was quickly built. Even war horses could easily cross the river, but there were too many people, and it took most of the day just to cross the river. This time they came to the north bank of the Sehoryu River and advanced along the river! It is said that a large number of small city-states are distributed here. Liu Yuan realized after seeing it that towns with about a thousand people can also be called city-states.
It is rumored that the folk customs here are as simple as those of Gequin City, but Liu Yuan thinks it is a bit exaggerated. Those people just look a bit fierce. Aren't they smiling, friendly, and speaking super nicely! Before the vanguard of the army arrived, the towns along the way had already offered food and other supplies, oh! They also provided many ships.
Liu Yuan didn't want to trouble them, and besides, their towns were too small to accommodate so many people. He accepted their gifts, as well as a lot of gold and silver coins. They were so polite that he smiled and waved goodbye to these people.
Those people were also very enthusiastic! The team had gone far, and they were still waving there. Liu Yuan keenly saw that many people shed tears of excitement! What simple people!
