Chapter 314 (2/2)
”No, colmark, the courage and fearlessness of the Bighorn have never been lost. I only said these words out of consideration for our soldiers! Kolmak, you haven't directly faced those Cherokees with muskets, but I have personally faced them. In particular, they have a powerful weapon that can send out thunder, and our soldiers can't deal with it.... ”
”You said all that! Bighorn sheep, I need you to give me an explanation. Why do you want to stop me from launching an expedition against the Cherokees? ”
”Not yet! Our soldiers need more preparation. Our soldiers need to be equipped with something more effective against Cherokee muskets, so that our soldiers will not be slaughtered by Cherokee muskets! In front of those damned muskets, the bone knives and spears in our soldiers' hands are not worth mentioning. If we don't make enough preparations, our soldiers can only be slaughtered in front of those muskets! I won't allow our soldiers to die in vain, colmark
”But no sacrifice, no victory. Have you forgotten that? ”
”Colmark, I can't forget that. It's a piece of advice from our ancestors. However, sacrifice can not be indifferent to sacrifice, even if our soldiers sacrifice, they must sacrifice valuable. It's not sacrifice. It's death in vain. Colmark, you haven't seen the power of the Cherokee muskets, but I've seen them with my own eyes. It's really terrible. No matter how powerful you are, you are vulnerable in front of a firegun, which is no different from a turkey. Colmark, we can't let our soldiers die in vain. ”
The Bighorn's words calmed colmark's anger a little. He hesitated and asked, ”Bighorn, is the Cherokee's musket really so powerful?”
”More than you think! Last time I directed the Yuchi people to pursue the 100 Cherokees, more than 1000 Yuchi people surrounded them on a small beach. Originally, I thought that they could kill the Cherokees with a single effort. As a result, the Cherokees killed hundreds of Yuchi people with their muskets under my eyes, and they killed the Yuchi people completely. Although those Yuchi people are useless, there are more than one thousand people in the end. They were killed by only one hundred people. It's really terrible. I don't think our soldiers would be any better if they were against the muskets. Therefore, we must find a way to equip our soldiers with equipment that can withstand those guns, or we will die in vain! ”
Colmarke was completely silenced by the Bighorn's words, and it took him a long time to ask, ”so how can we guard against the Cherokee muskets? Also, can we find a way to trade some muskets from vasichu? The Spaniards in the South have a lot of muskets. They are active in our territory. Can we trade some muskets with them? ”
The bighorn sheep shook his head and said, ”chief, I'm afraid it's not easy to trade muskets with Spaniards. Those Spaniards won't trade muskets to us easily. It's like none of those vasichos would do that. I think we should think about how to resist those guns. ”
”Do you have any idea?”
”I don't have a clue for the moment, but I think we can find a way if we think about it. Is that better than sending our soldiers to death? So, kolmak, we can't fight the Cherokees easily, we need time to prepare! ”
This time, chief kolmark was completely silent.
