Chapter 96 Come on, I'm not afraid! (Ask for a monthly ticket)
"You say that the British in Virginia are mobilizing their army? And even the tribal warriors who are vassal of them have been summoned?"
The news brought by the Black Bear made Zhao Hongyu's eyelids twitch.
"What is the reason for the British? They can't have created such a big battle for no reason." Zhao Hongyu felt that the British could not be a lunatic. They must have a reputation for making such a big deal.
Zhao Hongyu thought about it for a while, but he really couldn't figure out the reason.
"Do you know what's going on?" Zhao Hongyu asked.
The black bear nodded and said, "Listen to the soldiers I sent out, the British plan to start a war against us Mohikan." Zhao Hongyu's expression became ugly when he heard this.
"Winning a war against Mohigan? What's the benefit of them? Is it for Mohigan's land? I think it would never be avenge Baker and the others, and they don't know about this."
After Zhao Hongyu got the news from Black Bear, his mood became extremely bad.
Originally, he planned to develop slowly, but now he has saved some money and thought that he will start investing in the past few days. But this happens all of a sudden, and things may change.
Grandma, why can’t my rise go smoothly?
"They are for the yellow stones." The black bear said the real purpose of the British. The news was obtained by the Mohigan soldiers from other tribes, and I think the British's confidentiality measures were not very good. Now many of the Indian tribe soldiers recruited by Britain know that their enemy was Mohigan.
The black bear's expression was puzzled and solemn. He looked at Zhao Hongyu and said, "I really don't understand. What's the use of that kind of yellow stone? The British actually started a war for this thing. Originally, I just thought that only you would like this yellow stone, but I didn't expect that the British were crazier than you."
After hearing the words of Black Bear, Zhao Hongyu thought to himself: Can I say that I can start a war for gold? I can't say such words to you, you don't know anything!
Of course, Zhao Hongyu would not say these words to Heixiong. He could only think about it alone in his heart.
"I guess the gold of the British is fake, and the land of your Moshid is real. Moreover, we trade with the surrounding tribes, which probably caused displeasure among the British. After all, in the past, the British exchanged fur and various materials. Now that we have exchanged the resources in the surrounding tribes, the British will not get anything, right?"
In order to allow the Mohicans to participate in this war, Zhao Hongyu could not say that the British were for gold.
You should know that the gold mine deep in the forest belongs to Zhao Hongyu in the eyes of the Moxicans.
Because the Mohigans were not interested in yellow stones, if Zhao Hongyu had not liked yellow stones and asked the Mohigan women to collect yellow stones there to exchange food, I think no one would have paid attention to the forest gold mine.
The guards of the gold mine are strictly considered to be the people hired by Zhao Hongyu.
The elders of Moxigan also believed that the gold mine belonged to Zhao Hongyu, and the tribesmen were just working for Zhao Hongyu. Zhao Hongyu paid the Moxigan people, which was very reasonable, right?
But there will be a problem here. The reason why the British launched a war against Mohigan was a gold mine. However, with the power of Zhao Hongyu's small group, it is not easy to fight against the current British people, so he had to let the Mohigans join in.
Moreover, the British came just for the gold mine, which would have caused the Mohicans to have an idea in their mind, that is, it had nothing to do with them.
The elders and the old leaders of Moshigan did not want a war, they hoped to live a peaceful life.
Therefore, it is impossible for them to fight with the British for Zhao Hongyu's gold mine to kill the Mohigans.
The Mohicans did not have much benefit here.
As for Zhao Hongyu, he didn't want to hand over the interests of the gold mine to the British. You should know that his biggest source of income every day is gold.
Although with the development of trade with surrounding tribes, the consumption of rice, pickled vegetables and matches by surrounding tribes has given Zhao Hongyu a stable income, but these incomes are too small.
Stable income can only ensure that Zhao Hongyu has money to make money every day, which is his bottom line.
But Zhao Hongyu also needs a huge profit to allow him to buy genetic people and invest in new products in the short term.
Therefore, it is impossible for him to hand over the interests of gold.
At the same time, even if he handed over the gold benefits, would the greedy British guy let them go?
Obviously, this is impossible.
The British who got gold will not fill their appetites.
At that time, their attention will definitely be on the products at Zhao Hongyu's hand. If Zhao Hongyu can do it, he will still have to hand over the products to them?
Even an idiot would not do this, and Zhao Hongyu would not do it even more.
Therefore, the fight will surely happen.
Since the fight will happen sooner or later, it is impossible to escape, Zhao Hongyu simply gave up all his fantasies.
But before facing the British, all he had to do was to pull the Mohigans into the chariot. He wanted to abandon Zhao Hongyu and reach an agreement with the British, so he didn't even think about it.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu told the Black Bear that what Britain values is not gold, but the land of the Mohicans.
"Black Bear, do you think the black bear is just for the gold mine?" Zhao Hongyu couldn't help but ask back. After the black bear was silent for a moment, he shook his head uncertainly before saying to Zhao Hongyu: "I also think it is unlikely that the British will make such a big noise just because of the gold mine. So what do you think it is because it is really the land we Moshi do?"
Zhao Hongyu mentioned this before, and at this time the black bear remembered.
"It's because of the land. If it's not because of the land, what do you think it is?" Zhao Hongyu nodded seriously and said to the black bear, "Gold is just an excuse. This can create an illusion for you, so that you can relax your vigilance, right?"
While talking to Black Bear, Zhao Hongyu quickly turned his mind and thought. He had to think of a very suitable excuse to make Black Bear think that the British were really here to deal with Moshigan.
"You should understand the greedy personality of the white skins. After handing over the gold mine, they will ask for something else. When you all satisfy them, they will further squeeze the Moxi cadres."
The black bear nodded slowly.
How could the Black Bear not know about the character of the White Skin Sect?
He has had a lot of dealings with the white skins, and it is precisely because of the dealings that Black Bear hates these white skins very much. Because of his son and daughter, Black Bear also hated the white people.
"You are right. These greedy white skins will never be satisfied. And the soldiers I sent out have made it clear that the British are going to deal with us Mohicans." At this time, the black bear thought of the information they received from the soldiers and his face suddenly became very ugly.
"Black bear, you should pay attention to what the Mohican elders mean now. I am worried that they will most likely not advocate dealing with the British, and may even think that handing over the gold mine can avoid war."
Zhao Hongyu pretended to remind Black Bear to pay attention to this point.
"There is no problem here. Although I don't have many warriors, I will definitely fight to the death with the British to the end. I will not admit defeat to them and become their slaves." Listening to Zhao Hongyu's words, the black bear's face became increasingly ugly. Zhao Hongyu pretended not to see the black bear's face but continued: "You should know the consequences of those tribes conquered by white skins in the Virginia area."
How could the Black Bear not knowing? He was very clear about this.
Before Zhao Hongyu came to the Moshika tribe, the soldiers of the Moshika tribe would go to the city established by the British in Virginia once every year, and exchange furs and other things for British goods.
The same is true for Black Bear, so he is very clear about the situation there.
The Indian tribes defeated by white skin work every day in the silver mine near Jaques Sali City, Virginia, where the conditions are extremely harsh, and none of the people who work there can survive three years.
The black bear had the honor to see a scene of working in the silver mine, and the slaves there were different human-like appearances.
It was also from that time that the black bears had a very bad impression of the white skins, and they could even be said to be disgusted.
If we don’t fight, will we Mohicans become like that?
The black bear felt a chill in his heart, which made him shiver involuntarily.
No! I must not let such a thing come to Moshigan, nor can my daughter become a slave!
Seeing the black bear standing there with a gloomy face, Zhao Hongyu knew that he must have thought of something.
"Black bear, it's useless to think about it alone. The most important thing is to look at the decisions of the elders in the tribe. Many things are not something you can decide. And the guarantee I can make to you is that my people and I can fight against the white skins. As for you Moshikan..." Zhao Hongyu paused for a moment, and at the same time shook his head and looked very helpless.
"What you Moshi do depends on those elders."
Why didn't Black Bear know about it? He was really a little angry about it.
"Emma and your wife are on Manhattan Island, and I can take care of their safety. So you don't have to worry, I think it will take some time for the British to call."
Zhao Hongyu estimated that he thought the British had to prepare a lot to start a war, so it was unlikely that the war would break out in a short period of time.
So, he and the Moxi cadre had some time to prepare for the war!
Humph, the British are not easy to deal with, but I am not afraid! The recent development of the "new weapon" is just right for us!
Thinking of the "new weapon" developed by Wang Shan, a hint of hideousness flashed in Zhao Hongyu's eyes. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe to (this site) and reward. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
