Chapter 2657: The Tribes

Seeing the confusion on Si Bai’s face, Master Lu laughed and quickly said, "The Hu Tribe is active because looting is their main method of earning food. Most of their members are strong warriors and they’re used to fight. But even if they’re strong and active, their goals are nothing more than food."

Nothing more than food?

Hearing his father in law’s tone, Si Bai had the feeling that he looked down on Hu Tribe.

"Aren’t they strong?" Si Bai asked.

"Yes and no." Master Lu thought for a moment and then said, "They are very active on the battlefield because they didn’t have much brain and always like to fight. Even though they’re strong physically, they’re not much of a threat if they’re properly handled."

In other words: they’re nothing more than barbarians who knew nothing but to fight. They were fighting with nothing more than their fists instead of their first.

Si Bai: "..."

Now he understood why Master Lu said that.

If the one facing the Hu Tribe were too weak, then they would still be defeated. But if the one facing them had some brains, they would be able to defeat the Hu Tribe without any problem.

It just depends on who they were facing.

"The second one, Yan Tribe..." Master Lu tapped the table. "It’s not exactly a big tribe and didn’t always come to attack. They come every few years and my brother told me that they always come at the precise moment when the army is at the weakest."

Si Bai was stunned when he heard Master Lu’s words. "So precise?"

"Yes." Master Lu nodded. "So if the army is not in a good situation, there’s a chance that the Yan Tribe will come and attack. When they did, they will take everything and burned down the rest...."

Thinking about what happened to the cities that was burned down, Master Lu sighed.

People lived from the land and seeing their hard work being burned down to ashes would definitely hurt. Moreover, they had to pay exorbitant taxes over the years, which definitely made things difficult for many of them.

If it was possible, it would be better for the army to win.

But it was impossible to win at all times unless they have the absolute advantage to the point that no one could contend with them.

Si Bai nodded solemnly.

"Alright." Master Lu smiled and then said, "The last one is Ji Tribe. The main reason why they’re said to be mysterious is because some said that they’re half of our people."

"Half of our people?" Si Bai was confused.

"Well... you do know that some of the northern tribe might also kidnap women, right? It was recorded that some people who were kidnapped by the Ji Tribe will be used as their wives and bore their children. The characteristic of the people from the Ji Tribe is closer to Fei Yang Kingdom’s people and they’re the best at acting as spies... because the similar characteristic will make it impossible for us to recognize them quickly," Master Lu explained.

The other northern tribe’s people have wider face and somewhat taller frame, plus some details in their expression that looked different from most people in Fei Yang Kingdom. But the people from the Ji Tribe had stature more similar to Fei Yang Kingdom and many of them could be mistaken as people from Fei Yang Kingdom.
