The most arrogant in history
Chapter 959 Who is the Barbarian?
"I'm just speaking metaphorically, damn it."
Ye Kun rolled his eyes and said, "But we are not used to the food of the natives. There are all kinds of breadfruit trees, sausage trees, and cassava here. We Chinese people eat wheat, rice, and millet, and we can't eat their stuff.
We Chinese are an agricultural nation with thousands of years of heritage. Wherever we go, we must have land and grow food to feel at ease. Therefore, we must find suitable farming areas to produce food and lay the foundation for future development. "
Before traveling through time, Ye Kun had some understanding of the South African continent.
Not to mention the ancient times, even in later times, people here don’t know how to farm. If there is agriculture, it is a mess.
There are large areas of black soil in South Africa, and it is very soft.
They farm without plowing or harrowing the fields.
Just poke it with a wooden stick and drop the seeds in.
As for new water conservancy projects, that is even more impossible.
There was nothing to eat here, so they ran away to look for fruit.
They may not be able to do anything else, but they are the fastest in running.
In later generations, many Chinese people came to South Africa to develop agriculture and made a fortune.
Tan Bamao scratched his head and said, "Godfather, if that's the case, then these natives are living a very comfortable life. We Chinese people are much more tired than them."
"That's true. They live a very easy life. After eating, they play and basically don't work. Hunting and gathering are actually a form of entertainment. It's very relaxing."
Ye Kun nodded and sighed, "But tribes without a sense of crisis and a sense of worry will eventually be wiped out. The Chinese people do have a very tiring life, but they will always exist, and will get better and better."
It is actually difficult to comment on the gains and losses in life.
The same is true in later generations.
Southeast Asians work the hardest!
They all had the idea of Qin Shi Huang, who thought that having Qin was not enough and wanted to conquer the other six kingdoms;
It is not enough to become an emperor yourself, you have to pass the throne down to future generations.
No one lives to be a hundred years old, and he always worries for a thousand years.
With such thoughts, it would be strange if life wasn't tiring.
But Africa, America, Australia and Europe are not so tired. Most people just muddle through, living day by day.
Ye Kun also didn’t know which way of living would make life more meaningful.
He could only expand the territory based on the traditional consciousness of the Chinese people and leave more living space for the descendants of Yan and Huang.
Lu Kaijiang said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you said that the natives here live very comfortably. I will make them uncomfortable soon. I will fight to clear out the native tribes within a thousand miles!"
Ye Kun chuckled: "Why are you in such a hurry? We can save a lot of energy if we plan carefully before taking action."
Tan Jingang said: "Grandpa, let's take a few days to build up the small port city here as a rear supply base. Then we can plan how to advance our troops."
Ye Kun nodded and asked the staff and the guide team to study the plan.
Two days later, the plan was ready.
Ye Kun decided to head northwest from Mosan Port and make contact with the indigenous tribes here.
There are six or seven indigenous tribes within a radius of 500 miles here, and the largest tribe has more than 100,000 people.
All together, there may be 200,000 or 300,000 people.
But they had no cities, no arable land, and naturally no property.
They live in trees, in holes in the ground, or in grass huts.
They had no clothes, only simple animal skins wrapped around their waists.
Even women don't know how to cover themselves up and don't wear any clothes on their upper bodies.
They go barefoot all year round and don't know what shoes are.
It seems that they have not completely gotten out of the savage survival mode.
As for weapons, the most advanced swords, spears and iron tools were bought from the Chinese. The shields were made of cowhide, the bows and arrows had a range of less than a hundred steps, and there were many bone arrowheads.
Ye Kun felt that it was unfair to bully such a tribe.
In order to attract the natives to attack actively, Ye Kun adopted the method of advancing in small teams and dispersing the march.
But they can't be too far away from each other.
Four armies of 500 men marched side by side, twenty miles apart.
Ye Kun led four hundred elite soldiers and a two-hundred-strong inspection team and walked in the middle.
The marching speed was not fast, and they conducted inspections as they moved forward.
Some scattered natives, upon seeing Ye Kun's army, naturally did not dare to confront them and fled in panic.
Tan Bamao held his pistol and fired randomly, but unfortunately he missed.
Ye Kun glared and said, "These are indigenous people. Why are you bullying them? How can you be so cruel to shoot and kill unarmed indigenous people?"
"Godfather, those who are not from my clan must have different intentions. Killing them is the easiest way!"
"Bullshit! Remember this: it is the most shameless act for a military to shoot and kill unarmed enemy civilians. On the battlefield, you can kill the enemy at will, but not here!"
Ye Kun cursed.
Tan Bamao put away his pistol and said with a smile, "I know, godfather, don't be angry."
Ye Kun snorted, "If you dare to mess around again, I will take your gun and hand you over to the cannibals here."
Tan Bamao laughed and said, "Godfather, even if I give my old bones to the cannibals, they won't be able to chew them!"
"If you can't chew it, add more fire. If that doesn't work, use a pressure cooker."
Everyone laughed together.
A soldier asked, "Your Majesty, are there really cannibals in this place?"
"There shouldn't be any here. Even if there are, they are very few. Because there is food here, there is no need for cannibalism." Ye Kun thought for a while and said, "It seems that there are many cannibals in the West Sea Continent."
The soldier shuddered and shook his head, "How barbaric!"
Ye Kun suddenly smiled and said slowly: "Speaking of barbarism, I thought of a joke."
Everyone became interested.
Ye Kun said: "One of our generals was drinking and chatting with the cannibal leader. The cannibal leader said that they had to kill a few people every day, otherwise they would not have enough to eat.
Our general said that when we fought, sometimes hundreds of thousands or even millions of people were killed in one war. For example, the Battle of Changping killed 400,000 people.
The cannibal leader asked, "If you kill hundreds of thousands of people, can you eat them all?"
Our general said that we never eat humans.
The cannibal leader was shocked and blurted out, "You are so barbaric. You don't eat people, but you kill so many!"
After hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.
But as I laughed, I stopped laughing.
Because Ye Kun didn't smile.
Ye Kun sighed: "In fact, I want to say that civilized barbarians are more terrifying than primitive barbarians. We have technology and civilization, but we kill more people..."
The story just now was a foreign joke that Ye Kun had heard before, and he made some adaptations of it.
But this story is worth pondering.
Tan Bamao asked, "Then Godfather, are we barbarians too?"
"Yes, we are also barbarians and invaders." Ye Kun shook his head and smiled bitterly:
"To the descendants of Yan and Huang in later generations, we are pioneers. But to the indigenous people here, we are destroyers, we are devils, we are unforgivable invaders."
Tan Bamao laughed and said, "Godfather, even if we didn't come, the natives here would still kill each other. Just like forty years ago, we fought with Xiahou Chang and Xiao Dequan. In the end, the common people were the ones who suffered.
To completely put an end to the killing, we must unify the Yan Emperor Continent and establish a new order."
Everyone nodded: "Master Tan is right!"
Ye Kun smiled and said, "Tan Bamao, you have been pretending to be confused. But what you said just now is right. Only when we unify the Yan Emperor Continent can we establish true order."
Bang, bang bang!
As they were talking, gunshots were suddenly heard from the front.
Tan Bamao laughed and said, "A fight has broken out. Our frontline troops must have encountered the indigenous army and started fighting."
Ye Kun smiled bitterly: "The natives here probably don't have a real army, they are just spontaneously organized hunters."
