Chapter 212: Winning the Championship and Fighting for Freedom
"I don't understand." Just when everyone nodded to express their understanding, Gu Li said that he didn't understand.
In fact, the reason why Dali and others understood it was because they only listened to the first half of the sentence and ignored the second half. The reason why Gu Li didn't understand it was because the focus of her thinking was on the last half of the sentence.
"When facing a small group of enemies, all the enemy's attention is on us, so the defense can maximize the power of the team; on the battlefield, facing thousands of troops, it is difficult for the enemy to focus on us
Only at this time can the attack unleash the team power of the Crane Wing Formation." Mao Qi was very satisfied with Gu Li's performance and explained patiently.
"I see. It doesn't seem to be very profound, it's just hard to understand." Gu Li suddenly understood and said playfully.
With an experienced and powerful commander like Mao Qi in charge, Mao Qi's team overcame obstacles all the way and won the first place in the slave competition as expected. Just as everyone was cheering for it, Mao Qi discovered that he was above the stands.
Of the big shots, no one left.
"Do you still have to award us awards in person?" Mao Qi thought with doubts.
Just when Mao Qi was puzzled, Shanlang actually came to the ring.
"Everyone, please be quiet." Shanlang's voice was loud. He waited until the whole square became quiet before continuing: "Congratulations to Team Maoqi for winning this competition. Here, on behalf of the Shankui Tribe, I officially award them the honor of Deputy Slave Commanding Group. This
The rights will continue until the next competition. I hope everyone will follow their example and strive to top the list next time."
The moment the champion's reward came out of Shanlang's mouth, the whole square started to boil again. Before, this attractive reward was just a flower in the mirror, but now it has been truly recognized by the top of the Shanlang clan.
The position of Deputy Commander of the Slave Vanguard was now in front of his eyes, and its allure increased several times at this moment.
"There is another important announcement to be announced." After a burst of cheers, Shanlang continued: "Slaves are a very important resource for every tribe, and they are also private property that symbolizes wealth and status. But today, our Shanlang tribe
I want to make an exception here. Listen to me, from now on, any slave team that wins the championship in the tribal competition will get an opportunity to challenge an equal number of tribal teams. If the challenge is won, all
All members will become non-tribal citizens of our Shankui tribe and enjoy equal rights to obtain labor. Not only will they no longer be slaves, but their children will no longer be slaves."
Before Shan Lang could finish speaking, the audience once again erupted into a tsunami-like discussion.
"Finally, I can no longer be a slave!"
"Why didn't you tell me about such a good thing earlier?"
The slaves in the audience cheered wildly, as if freedom was already in front of them, and they could grab it as long as they stretched out their hands. Even some members of the Maoqi team were blushing and could not stand upright with excitement.
And Mao Qi, with an intriguing smile on his lips, looked at Shan Lang calmly, waiting for his next words.
When his speech was interrupted, Shanlang did not get angry, but stood quietly on the stage with a smile and waited.
Everyone's excitement calmed down a little, but they found that the mountain wolf was still standing on the stage, and seemed to be looking at them. Everyone couldn't help but think of the unlucky guy who had his tongue cut off and died on the big bluestone because he farted and interrupted the mountain wolf's speech.
Thinking of this, everyone seemed to feel numb and quickly closed their mouths. The noisy square soon became quiet.
"There is no pie in the sky. If you want to become a citizen outside the clan, you have to rely on your own strength. There are no restrictions in the challenge. If one party surrenders, the challenge ends." Seeing everyone quiet down, Shan Lang said slowly.
"Mao Qi, what should I do?" Shan Lang's words also made Gu Li a little excited, but she kept a clear head. Because she knew very well that if she really wanted to challenge, it might delay her escape plan. If she gave up this escape plan,
There was no chance to escape anymore. Because Mao Qi's reminder was still in his ears, Gu Li did not dare to believe Shanlang's promise easily. So he leaned into Mao Qi's ear and asked softly.
"If you have this opportunity, why not fight?" Mao Qi did not lower his voice, but said in a normal voice.
Hearing that Mao Qi was preparing to challenge, the entire team pricked up their ears.
"Everyone, our team currently has eight people. If we choose to challenge, the opponent will also have eight people, and the individual strength is definitely better than ours. It will be difficult to win." Seeing everyone's preparations, Mao Qiyi
As soon as he opened his mouth, he poured a ladle of cold water on him.
"I'm not afraid. As long as I can stop being a slave, it's worth risking my life." A female team member who usually doesn't speak much stood up for the first time and said as if she was dead.
Her words were quickly supported by half of the people in the team. And these people, without exception, were the ones who chose to stay. They expressed their stance at this time because they were afraid that Mao Qi would give up the challenge and let them miss this wonderful opportunity.
Chance.
"In this case, everyone should be prepared for the worst, and be sure to listen to my command during the battle." Mao Qi reminded him in an extremely serious manner.
Looking at Mao Qi's serious and serious expression, Xiaojuan couldn't help but wonder if Mao Qi had forgotten the plan. There was no way to compare the status and freedom of a foreign citizen. Besides, he had to fight with people stronger than himself. Why was Mao Qi so confused?
."What if there are casualties?"
"It's not that serious. If you can't beat him, just admit defeat." The woman who just spoke quickly explained for Mao Qi.
"Admit defeat! I'm afraid it's not that simple." Although Xiaojuan couldn't find a reason to refute, she still said unconvinced.
"You..." The woman got excited and opened her mouth, ready to talk about Mao Qi's plan.
"Shut up." Mao Qi quickly took over the topic and said in a stern tone: "I am the captain or you are the captain. Fight! But please pay attention to me, after all, we don't have as much practical experience as they do."
Mao Qi's words gave the woman reassurance, and her excitement calmed down a bit. She was also a little scared about how she almost spilled the beans because she was anxious. Because if she spilled the beans, she would be beaten down, and her life would not be saved.
Seeing that Mao Qi had already made a decision, Xiaojuan did not dare to say anything. Her eyes wandering around showed her dissatisfaction.
"Mao Qi, do you want to fight?" Seeing that Mao Qi's team seemed to have reached an agreement, Shan Lang asked Mao Qi.
"Fight!" Mao Qi nodded solemnly and replied.
"Team Maoqi has chosen to challenge. The challenge will take place in half an hour." Shan Lang announced with a smile on his face.
However, in Mao Qi's view, there is more sinisterness in Shan Lang's smile.
"Damn, I'm so worried. I thought that boy Mao Qi didn't dare to challenge." The discussion from the audience roared again.
"Only a fool would give up such a good opportunity!"
"Mao Qi, what should we do next?" Gu Li quickly adjusted his mentality, but he still didn't have the confidence to face an unknown opponent who was stronger than himself.
"The next battle will only be more cruel. Everyone must trust each other and cooperate with each other. Once the formation is broken, I'm afraid no one can escape their clutches." Mao Qi did not talk about the essentials of the formation anymore, because he will talk about the essentials now.
, will only make everyone more nervous.
"Captain, it's not that serious. If we really can't beat him, we will admit defeat." A member of the team who chose to stay did not agree with Mao Qi's words and said with a sense of luck.
"Since you choose to challenge, you must win. If you don't have the belief that you will win, how can you win?" The big man stared. At this time, his eyes were full of anger. For this kind of coward who always takes chances,
Big guys are psychologically looked down upon.
"The big guy is right. Please hurry up and take a good rest." Gu Li also looked down upon this kind of team members. As for why there is such a tendency, the main reason is because they are not completely on the same front as themselves.
.
"Everyone, what I want to say is that since we choose to challenge, we are still a whole. In the next battle, no one can do it. If we don't unite as one, we have no chance to survive. What kind of person is Shanlang?
Don’t you know better?” Mao Qi’s tone was a bit stern, obviously dissatisfied with the current state of the team. “I hope you can remember that deep in the wolf’s den, you must learn to be vigilant as a wolf, otherwise, you will only become a wolf.
food."
After saying that, Mao Qi looked around at everyone meaningfully, then sat down directly to rest.
Mao Qi's words made everyone sober up from their fantasies and disagreements. They all sat next to Mao Qi in silence and took the time to adjust.
The audience could not hear the voices of Mao Qi and others at all. Watching Mao Qi and others enter a state of rest, the discussion in the audience gradually became quieter. In this seemingly insignificant change, Team Mao Qi
The recognition in the hearts of everyone has increased a bit.
Half an hour may not be long or short, but no matter what your mentality is, what should come will still come.
Amid great expectations, another eight-man team appeared in everyone's sight. All eight people were seen wearing light armor. Each of them held a spear about one foot long in their hands, and hung on their waists.
Armed with a long sword and tall and burly figure, he looked very imposing.
"Elder Shanlang, what do you mean? You even used the Shanping Team." Shanba looked at the team that walked on the stage and immediately understood in his heart that Shanlang didn't want the Maoqi Team to exist, so he turned his head.
He asked with an inexplicable smile.
"Do you think freedom is really so cheap? A mediocre person doesn't deserve freedom." Shanlang glanced at Shanba and replied expressionlessly.
"You can ask the clan leader for this matter." Seeing that he had correctly guessed Shan Lang's intention, Shan Ba retracted his smile and asked seriously.
The purpose of this competition is to better adapt the slaves to war, thereby reducing the loss of slaves in the war. Now that the leader has finally been selected, the mountain wolf will be destroyed immediately, but he has no idea why. Let Shan
Ba felt a little unhappy in his heart.
"Elder Shanba, please be patient. These slaves have become proud after winning the championship. I have to beat them. Don't worry, I am not willing to let them all die. As for the clan leader, I have already informed him." See Shanba.
Even when angry, the mountain wolf dare not ignore it.
Although he reluctantly obtained the consent of the clan leader, if Shan Ba insists on quarreling with him at this time, I am afraid it will damage his prestige.??
