Chapter 260 Questioning the Guilty (Bonus Chapter for Chaochao)
Ruan Xi immediately understood that the country she lived in in her previous life always emphasized having a legitimate reason for fighting.
That's probably the reason.
Momentum is a very mysterious thing. If everyone is going all in to defend the group behind them to the death, even if it means fighting back to the enemy's homeland in self-defense...
We, on the other side, also held a firm belief: if we fall, once the enemy steps over our bodies, they will definitely bully our compatriots behind us!
Human faith is a terrifying thing! It can motivate people to do the unimaginable.
Although Xia Weier embellished the events he had his guards shout out, the Red Fox tribe did indeed do these things!
Upon hearing this, the beastmen of the Red Fox tribe learned that their tribe had first attacked the Holy Mother and, during the beast tide season, had joined forces with a group of wandering beastmen to divide and devour the Lion Tribe and the Cheetah Tribe.
The beastmen of the Red Fox tribe were apprehensive when they fought back.
They are bad orcs...
They had no legitimate reason to kill the orcs brought by Xiaweier.
They just wanted to get rid of the guards that Xia Weier had brought.
However, the beastmen of the Xiaweier Guard were different. They cried out in anguish and accused the Red Fox Tribe of crimes. They fought desperately and bravely.
Thus, the situation became one where the orcs of the Red Fox tribe fought back while fleeing.
Yes! There were many of them, but they were in the wrong. They were orcs, not demons. They knew shame and resisted in a guilty conscience, but their opponents were fearless and terrified. They could only fight back and run away at the same time!
If Ruan Xiyue were to see such a scene, she would tell them that there is nothing new under history!
How is this any different from the Battle of Delhi that she witnessed in her previous life?
First, the third brother acted foolishly, failing in his invasion attempt and suffering a crushing defeat, turning the invasion war into a battle to defend the new capital.
However, the hundred orcs that Xiaweier brought still suffered great losses!
They killed over seven thousand low- to mid-level orcs in three days.
However, they also suffered more than forty orc casualties.
Xia Weier let everyone rest for a while, and then sent some orcs to the Holy City to complain.
Only then did he lead the remaining troops back to the Lion Clan tribe.
Ruan Xiyue thoroughly enjoyed the story; a victory against overwhelming odds, and a satisfying slaughter. The Red Fox Tribe should behave themselves now! If they still don't behave, once she's finished settling things over and the Beast City is completed, she'll make them experience the taste of annihilation!
Ruan Xiyue asked Qiu Ran to settle the guards down, then took out two newly sewn animal skin robes. She handed one black robe with golden animal fur patterns to Jiu Chen, and the other beige robe with black and red patterns to Xia Weier.
"I should have sewed these for you sooner, but I've been busy this year, so it's been delayed until now. I'm sorry, I hope you like them."
Xia Wei'er immediately took off his animal skin coat and put on the animal skin long robe that Ruan Xiyue had sewn for him by hand. The animal skin long robe that Ruan Xiyue had sewn for them was lined with linen, and the middle layer was filled with bird down like goose down, which was very warm.
Jiu Chen held the long robe, a smile involuntarily spreading across his face. He gently stroked the fur of the robe with his fingers and shook his head slightly. "No need to apologize, I like it very much. Thank you for your hard work, Yue'er."
Seeing that it was already late, Ruan Xiyue kissed Long Ze and Jiu Chen, handed over the arrangements for the cubs to them, fed the cubs in the cub room, and then took Xia Weier to rest.
On Ruan Xiyue's side, they were just waiting for Qin Ye to return with the beastmen who had fought off the beast tide, because the snow would start to melt. After the snow melted, they would get busy.
Qiu Ran was going to lead a group of orcs to pick up his beloved female, and also to buy slaves in the passing Furnace Beast City, Thousand Snow Beast City, and Al Beast City.
Long Ze, on the other hand, is going to start selecting the second batch of wandering beastmen. Once Qiu Ran has bought the female beastmen, he will repeat the process to remove the exile marks from a batch of wandering beastmen!
Jiu Chen began to study various spells every day, and in the spring he would go to Zhaonan Beast City to participate in the evaluation and assessment of the Iron Cup High Priest.
Xia Weier, on the other hand, needs to prepare to go to Hope Beast City to exchange Cong Xian for him.
Qin Ye will be involved in the merger of the Lion Tribe and the Cheetah Tribe.
Each beastman has their own responsibilities and tasks to carry.
Meanwhile, the Beast King was receiving all sorts of messages and was extremely busy.
The fourth prince's garrison in the beast city saw fewer casualties this year, but craftsmen still need to be mobilized to repair and reinforce the city. The second prince's exile in the beast city also saw a slight decrease in casualties this year, but the second prince kept complaining about poverty and the poor environment.
The Spirit Fox Tribe sent over scrolls of animal hides, each angrily rebuking Xia Weier, so many that his table was almost overflowing!
However, the animal hide scroll recently sent by the Spirit Fox Tribe changed its tune, saying that they might have had a misunderstanding with Xia Weier and hoped that the Beast King could mediate between them.
The Beast King sneered. If it weren't for the fact that one of the cubs born to Ruan Xiyue in this litter was a spirit fox cub with ancestral blood, they would have changed their tune and stopped condemning his son.
Thinking of this, the Beast King felt unbearable pain again.
On the bloodline stone, the totems of his three grandsons dimmed and never regained their luster.
That brother of his deserves to die!
The Beast King fell into deep thought. In the spring, he decided to send Jiu Chen's master to the Lion Clan tribe.
And that good-for-nothing son of his! When will his ancestral grandson, the Moon Rabbit, finally be born?! Until this damned curse is completely eradicated, will Ruan Xiyue never be able to bear Xia Weier another cub?
How can this be done!
That's absolutely unacceptable! Who knows when we'll be able to produce offspring with atavistic bloodlines again?
The Beast King took out the portrait of his grandson drawn by the artist from his storage bag, and felt extremely sad.
The Beast King was still wallowing in self-pity when a guard at the gate shouted, "Report!"
The Beast King sighed, "Come in!"
As it turned out, what the guard handed him was actually a scroll of animal hides bearing the lamentations of the Red Fox tribe.
The Beast King couldn't help but throw the animal hide scroll away: "Insolence!"
He already knew about the Red Fox tribe's affairs. This newly appointed chieftain was completely out of his mind! He actually dared to complain to him!
He was still hoping that Ruan Xiyue would give birth to a cub with the ancestral bloodline of the Bright Moon Rabbit!
The other side actually dared to team up with wandering orcs to ambush and kill Ruan Xiyue and her group!
Then, after failing to kill him and being killed instead, he still had the nerve to cry and complain to him?
The Beast King gritted his teeth!
He thought about it and realized that this must be prevented from happening again!
He waved his hand dismissively: "Send the First Dark Guard Team and the Silver-Rank Guard Team to collect all the evidence of the Red Fox Tribe's crimes!"
"Summon all the orcs in charge of punishments from the Witch Doctor's Hospital and the Priest's Court, as well as all the patriarchs of the major clans! I want to judge the crimes of the Red Fox Tribe!"
