Died three times, the third ex-husband went crazy

Chapter 174 Weapons
Cang Tao did what he said, and he returned triumphantly within half a month. He brought back a large number of slaves, cattle and horses, and everyone in Gosmand's army was rejoicing.

But it is said that this battle failed to completely wipe out the royal court of the Guarre tribe. The leader of the Guarre tribe led a part of the army to break through Cangtao's encirclement and escaped deep into the grassland.

This made Cang Tao frown all the time. Although he won the battle, he was not in a good mood, because the Guarre tribe was likely to ask for help from other tribes. If anyone else had different intentions and formed an alliance with him, Gosman Debu will turn from the advantage to the disadvantage.

He sent many cronies to other tribes to reiterate their alliances, appease people's hearts, and tell them that the reason why he took action against the Arabella tribe was because the Arabella tribe had disrespected him, and the Guarre tribe had He had no choice but to take action when he felt rebellious.As long as other tribes kept their peace and respected him as the King of Beirong, he was willing to coexist peacefully with them and enjoy wealth and peace.

One of the tribes proposed to marry the princess to Cangtao, but he refused.

This was obviously not conducive to consolidating the alliance, so Cang Tao secretly monitored their movements closely.

In the past half month, Lin Yu discovered that lagging productivity had tied women to endless housework.

War is the most cost-effective activity for Beirong to improve their lives, and men's physique and strength make them better at attacking and fighting, so other chores that provide them with support and ensure their lives are naturally left to women.

This is a division of labor that has evolved naturally over time, which means that this is the life style most suitable for this era.

It just means that men and women can't live without each other, but it doesn't mean that one division of labor is more important than the other.

But many people don't understand this.

During this half month, Lin Yu also tried to deepen her communication with the Beirong women, but apart from getting closer to the wife of the guard, she was still far from being fully integrated into their circle.

However, she is optimistic that at least everything is progressing.

When Lin Yu saw many unkempt women being pushed into the tent where prisoners were held, and the cries of girls and babies were often heard from there, she went to find Cang Tao.

When he saw her, Cang Tao had a surprised smile on his face and hugged her: "I was just about to ask someone to find you and tell you that I'm back."

"I know you are back. I saw the prisoners you brought back."

Hearing that there was not much joy in her tone, Cang Tao let go of her and frowned slightly: "Don't you celebrate my victory and be happy for me?"

"I'm very happy that you came back safely. I'm certainly more happy that you won than you failed," Lin Yu patted his back gently and said, "But I have an idea, I wonder if I can tell it?"

"what idea?"

"I'm thinking... maybe we can change the rules. I know that Beirong's custom is that the defeated become prisoners, but can we try to treat them better?"

"What do you mean?"

"I heard you turned down a princess."

He snorted coldly: "I asked Lan Li to tell you this on purpose."

"This won't help you gain their trust, right?"

"If you are really considerate of me, then don't be angry with me." Cang Tao said angrily: "Have you ever seen a man who would give his wife away to be taken care of by another man for such a long time?"

Lin Yu did not take up the topic: "What they are afraid of is that you are not true to your word, coexisting peacefully on the surface, but actually hiding ambitions and preparing to defeat them one by one. If you take the initiative to treat the prisoners well, and then use these guar If the prisoners of the Lei Department show it to them, won't their vigilance be relaxed a lot?"

"That's an act of weakness." Cang Tao said solemnly: "They will think that I am too cowardly and afraid of Guarre's revenge. This will shake my authority and will only make them dissatisfied faster."

Lin Yu said: "This is an act of kindness."

Cang Tao said coldly: "If you just want to say this, then there is no need to say it anymore."

Lin Yu looked at him for a moment, his golden-green eyes burning with blazing anger, but she didn't know whether it was because he felt that his authority had been offended, or because he felt that she was not gentle enough and submissive, or because he felt that she was not gentle enough and submissive. Or both.

"……I see."

Cang Tao then relaxed his expression.

"Then, can you give your Yan clan a group of slaves?" Seeing her insistence, Cang Tao sighed: "I can give you the group of people I got, but Ayu, the other people who live and die for the tribe Soldiers, they deserve their share, the woman they want, no one can interfere, and you shouldn’t take it away.”

Lin Yu was silent for a while.

She knew he was right. It was very unrealistic to refuse those warriors to divide the spoils. It would only lead to disunity within Gosmande's tribe, which might eventually turn into anger against the king Cang Tao.

If she insists on her opinion, let alone whether Cang Tao will be persuaded by her and willing to support her, if it triggers a rebellion, she herself cannot bear the consequences.

When she is opposed, she must have an army that is loyal to her and capable of fighting.

She backed down and said: "Then, give me children under 14 years old. They are still young and cannot have children when they are brought home, and they don't have the strength to work, so why not give them to me."

Cang Tao said coldly: "Okay, but what next? You come to me, just use me, and after you achieve your goal, you turn around and throw me away?"

Lin Yu stepped forward and hugged him: "I know you are good to me, Cang Tao. What I want, you always try your best to give me what you can give me..."

He let out a low "hum".

She gently stroked his back: "But have you ever thought about what if I was the one trapped there one day?"

But the implication of these words is that one day Gosmande's tribe will be defeated, and Cang Tao will most likely be defeated and die.

He said angrily: "Absolutely impossible!"

"But what if?"

He said resolutely: "There is no such thing!"

Lin Yu saw that he reacted so fiercely and knew that there was nothing he could do to convince him.

She comforted him with a few soft words, stayed with him for a while, and finally returned to Lan Li's camp before midnight.

Soon, all the captive girls under the age of 14 were given to the Yan family. Many girls who were older than them lied about their age in order to survive. As long as it didn't look too excessive, Cang Tao didn't have any trouble.

After selecting a few older female slaves who were able to work and come to Lan Li to take on the daily housework, Lin Yu started practicing riding and shooting hard.

When Cang Tao taught her before, it was just to make her have fun and relieve her boredom, and Lin Yu had not studied hard, but now she often goes to Cang Tao and asks him to share things about the war with her.

Of course Cang Tao was happy that she came to see him frequently, but at the same time he was a little confused: "Why are you interested in this recently?"

Lin Yu asked: "Do you think... is it possible that I can also lead troops to fight?"

Cang Tao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "You? Leading troops to fight?"

He held her hand and joked: "How many arrows can such a delicate hand shoot?"

"Then I didn't know how to ride a horse or shoot an arrow before, but I can't do it now? No matter how much I train, why can't I do it?"

Cang Tao suppressed a smile and said, "Okay, okay, you can, you can."

"Then please share some experience with me." Lin Yu shook his arm: "Just like just now, when you said you besieged the Guarre tribe, how did you give the order? Where did you block them and gain advantage? What is the terrain like, why, what terrain should be avoided, what should we pay attention to when deploying troops, what should we do if the enemy outnumbers us, what should we do if the morale of the army is shaken, when should we retreat, and what should we do when we retreat? What should I pay attention to...?"

She couldn't save everyone, so she hoped that one day she could save the people she wanted to save.

arms.

She must have her own weapon in her hand.

And she was determined to turn herself into a persuasive warrior first.
