Capítulo 79: Chapter 79: Standing Wolf
The three should be coordinated: leading by example, material and spiritual rewards, and deterrence through punishment.
This is the best solution Ma Shao can think of, which should be able to accelerate the unification of the languages of the indigenous tribes and reduce confrontation in the process as much as possible.
Of course, the current plan can only be considered a trial, and there is probably still a lot of room for improvement.
It's mainly a question of bonuses.
He was not sure whether this reward was big or small.
On average, this amounted to about fifteen dollars per Comanche.
From the perspective of time cost, fifteen dollars is too little. Even with the help of the environment, it takes an average person one or two years to master a foreign language. It is not uncommon for it to take ten years. One hour a day equals thousands of hours over a few years.
Thousands of hours. If you spend this much time working, even if it's just picking up scraps, you'll earn more than fifteen dollars.
But if you look at the amount alone, it doesn't seem to be a small amount.
There are currently about 300,000 to 500,000 indigenous people in North America. Assuming 300,000,000, if the tribe wants to subsidize 300,000 people according to this standard, it will need to pay as much as four to five million US dollars.
Of course, Ma Shao has plenty of ways to make money. Although most of them cannot be put into practice now, when he unites hundreds of thousands of indigenous people, I believe many of them can become a reality.
After the speech, people dispersed one after another.
Ma Shao picked a Comanche youth he trusted from the crowd and waved to him: "Shulang, come here."
"Teacher." Shulang said in Apache. He was more accustomed to calling Ma Shao that.
Horse Whistle listened to the Apache language without any Comanche accent and smiled: "It seems that you have a good chance of getting a hundred dollars. Don't buy alcohol after you get it, understand?"
"I have given up drinking." said the wolf.
Ma Shao nodded: "That's good. You should know where the forest tribe is, right? I mean the Comanche forest tribe."
Shulang nodded: "I know."
"In that case, I appoint you as my envoy to go to the forest tribe on my behalf." Ma Shao said slowly, "As my envoy, you have three purposes for this trip."
"The first purpose is to tell them that the chief guarding the tent of the Apache Plains Tribe has unfortunately died due to an accidental encounter with a rattlesnake... The current chief is me, the horse whistle of Sleeping Bear City."
"The second purpose is to inform the Forest Tribe of the truth about the Twin Wolf Clan joining Sleeping Bear."
"I don't know who spread rumors in the forest tribe before, claiming that you joined Sleeping Bear not voluntarily, but because I used coercion and deception."
After a pause, Ma Shao continued, "You need to tell them the truth of the matter. Tell them that the Twin Wolf Clan voluntarily joined Sleeping Bear and have no intention of leaving."
"clear."
Ma Shao nodded: "There is also a third purpose, which is to confirm the source of the rumor and who is distorting the facts."
"It may be done by Square Face. He disappeared not long ago. You may be able to see him after you arrive at the Forest Tribe. If you confirm that Square Face is a traitor, tell the chief of the Forest Tribe that I hope he can hand over Square Face. Square Face is now a prisoner of the Plains Tribe."
"If you really can't confirm it, you can abandon this mission."
"Yes." Shulang replied.
…
A few days later.
Vertical Wolf successfully arrived at the Comanche forest tribe, and almost as soon as he got off the horse, he completed the third task that Ma Shao gave him, which could be abandoned.
In the forest tribe camp.
"Shulang, why are you here?" Fang Lian looked at Shulang in surprise, "Did Ma Shao let you go?"
When the wolf saw him, he was silent for two seconds and then suddenly said, "You are such a stupid guy!"
"What do you mean?" Fang Lian was puzzled and a little annoyed.
Instead of answering, Vertical Wolf, led by another Comanche, walked into the central area of the forest tribe camp and headed straight for the largest tent.
Not knowing what was going on but feeling something was not right, Fang Lian quickly followed. The two of them entered the tent one after the other and met the Owl Chief.
"Chief Owl, I am Shulang, the messenger of Sleeping Bear City." Shulang said.
"Mianxiong City?" Chief Owl frowned slightly. "Mianxiong Clan?"
"It's now called Sleeping Bear City." Shulang added.
The square-faced man next to him reacted: "Did Ma Shao send you here?"
The wolf said calmly, "Yes, the chief sent me here."
"Great Chief?" Owl and Square-faced Man were both stunned.
Shulang explained: "The previous chief of the Plains Tribe was bitten by a snake while guarding the tent not long ago and has died. The one who leads the tribe now is Chief Ma Shao."
Upon hearing the news, everyone in the tent was in disbelief.
Owl couldn't help but look at the high priest beside him.
The high priest frowned and said, "It seems that the Arapaho prophecy has come true. I didn't expect it to come true at this time..."
This result was hard for them to accept.
What about the civil war?
Owl had been expecting Ma Shao to get involved in a civil war with the tent guards so that he could reap the benefits, but he did not expect that the Arapaho's prophecy would come true at this juncture!
Not only did the Apache civil war come to nothing, but Ma Shao also easily became the chief, making the situation even more difficult.
"What did Ma Shao send you for?" asked the Owl.
Shulang said: "I am here to clarify the truth. The Twin Wolf Clan joined the Plains Tribe voluntarily, not because of Mianxiong's coercion. We also respect Chief Mashao and have no intention of leaving Mianxiong."
"You're talking bullshit!" Fang-faced man yelled, "You traitor, you betrayed the Comanche!"
Shulang looked at him and said, "You are the real traitor, Fanglian. If it weren't for Chief Mashao, we wouldn't have survived last winter. Since you accepted the help, you should have fulfilled your promise and pledged your loyalty to Mianxiong... Now that winter is over, you want to break away from Mianxiong. What else is this but betrayal?"
He looked at Owl again and said, "Chief Owl, Fang-face is our traitor. I hope you can hand him back to Mian-xiong for punishment."
Square Face said hurriedly: "Big Chief, don't listen to his nonsense! He is a traitor to the Comanche people, we should execute him!"
Facing Shulang's attitude, Owl's expression became a little ugly: "Shulang, you were originally a Comanche."
"That's true," said the Wolf. "But when the Twin Wolf Clan was in its most difficult time, no Comanche clan was willing to lend a hand. So I am an Apache now."
"It's not that the other Comanche clans are unwilling to help you, they just can't," said Owl.
Shulang said: "If you can't do anything, you will have to pay the price."
Owl's voice sank: "The price is your betrayal?"
"This is not betrayal, it's just leaving. From then on, we no longer belong to Comanche." said Vertical Wolf.
