Chapter 350 (1/2)

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.
