When they came, they stopped and stopped. It was less than 1000 kilometers. The expeditionary army walked for almost three months.
When they went back, they also went on and off, but because they wanted to "send" chief kolmak and his party to monongahira safely, the distance was more than 1000 kilometers, and it took them almost two months to reach the court of Cherokee.
Standing outside the grand tent of the Cherokee royal court, chieftain junaruska, surrounded by more than 3000 soldiers of the royal court's guard tribe, could no longer suppress his inner excitement after seeing the fat middle-aged man, and laughed in front of everyone.
Can you stop laughing? Since chieftain junaruska became the chief of the Cherokee people, the Cree people in the South have always been a thorn in his heart. They can't pull out or move. Other people can't understand the pain except him.
In the past, the Cherokee people lived in the east of the great lake. Although they were often angry, as a member of the Iroquois alliance, at least they didn't have to worry about it every day.
However, after moving south to Monongahela, the Cherokee people have really been besieged.
Well, maybe the situation is not as miserable as the desperate situation faced by the Chu overlord, but it is definitely not easy. The Powhatans in the East, the Missourians and kentuckies in the west, and the chekasa and Yuchi people in the south are just like a group of hungry wolves.
Of course, in terms of the strength of the Cherokee people, they will not be afraid of these tribes. Even if the Cherokee people want to, they can completely flatten one or two of them, so as to win the prestige of the Cherokee people in the middle of the Appalachian Mountains.
But the problem is, on the other side of Dawu Mountain, there is a more powerful Cree!
Although the Crees did not show any hostility to the Cherokees, chief junaruska knew very well that it was because the Crees were also afraid of the Cherokees.
When two bears meet in the wild, they seldom contradict each other directly. They just yell at each other and leave.
Even ferocious bears know that once two bears with similar strength fight, they will only be cheaper than those wild wolves who covet around
It is precisely for this reason that the Cherokee people, who moved to the south for 300 years, only moved to the local tribe after they just moved to the south. After they gained enough territory, they never made any large-scale external moves, maintaining a delicate balance in the local area.
If chief junaluska knew a Chinese idiom called "a lump in the throat", he would raise his thumb and praise the person who created it.
For the Cherokee, the Cree in the south is a fishbone in their throat, which is hard to move.
For the Crees, the Cherokee people in the north are not like this?
The two giants were careful to avoid direct contact, and the Crees even blocked the Yuchi people in the north to serve as a buffer between the two tribes. But the Cherokee people have not killed all the chekasa people. To some extent, they do not regard the chekasa people as a buffer between them and the Cree people?
In the past three hundred years, the two giants wanted to eat each other, but no one dared to take the lead. This delicate balance has been maintained for nearly three hundred years.
Chieftain junaluska is an ambitious chieftain. Of course, he also wants to kill the Crees. In this way, with the strength of the Cherokee people, he can expand the territory for hundreds of miles without the huge constraints in the south.
And once they can really swallow up the Crees, the strength of the Cherokees will definitely surpass that of the Iroquois and the delavais who drove the Cherokees out of the Great Lakes region!
At that time, it's time for the Cherokees to take revenge on the damned Iroquois and the delavais.
It's just that these can only be the dreams of chieftain junaruska when he is free. He also knows that once there is an all-round war between the tribe and the Crees, the only cheap thing is the wolf cubs around.
It was for this reason that chief junaruska agreed to let the big man have a try.
In fact, when the envoys of the Cree came to the Royal tent, chieftain junaruska didn't care about the stone bear. Compared with maintaining the stable relationship between the two major tribes, a stone bear is worth sacrificing, even if he is the guardian of the high priest of kabulu.
If it's high priest kabulu, then chief junaruska said that he would not hand over anything. He didn't want to be the chief who was stabbed in the back by thousands of people. However, the guardian of a high priest is insignificant in the face of peaceful relations between the two major tribes.
But chieftain junaruska never thought that this amazing guardian was so powerful. He broke through the "divine immunity" alone!
Such an excellent talent immediately let chief junaluska throw his idea of handing it over to nine days away. Such a big man with a powerful watch will be regarded as a treasure in any tribe. So chieftain junaruska, who changed his mind at that time, did not hesitate to refuse the idea of the Kerry emissary taking the big man away.
Later, when the big man told his plan, some unbelieving sheikhs followed him to gaoshu tribe, the legendary tribe of high priest kabulu.
The trip was a complete shock to chief junaruska.
He never thought that there was such a powerful tribe in a remote corner under his jurisdiction. In particular, the power of the hot weapons displayed by the gaoshu tribe made chief junaruska a little frightened.
Of course, in addition to panic, chief junaruska also completely decided to fight. Although he did not believe that only 2000 people could conquer a large tribe with 100000 people, so what?
The gaoshu tribe entered the territory of the Cree under the banner of revenge. Even if it failed, the Cherokee lost only 2000 soldiers. Compared with more than 40000 soldiers of the whole tribe, chief junaruska can still accept this loss.
The most important thing is that it will not affect the relationship between the two tribes to test the reaction of the Kerry people with these 2000 soldiers. Chieftain junaluska would bet that the Crees would never go to war against the tribe because of these two thousand people.
As a result, I didn't expect that more than 2000 people won the Kerry race so happily! And even with a crushing situation won that huge tribe! This is just a few tons of gold pie falling from the sky
That's why chief junaruska laughs so much!
