8: Chapter 8 Population Growth, Enemy Lords' Defenses!

Xu Xuan didn't linger in the occupied areas.

He ran after looting! Even if the japanese people took back this land, they would only find a burnt village.

If they rebuilt it, Xu Xuan would be more than happy for them to do so; he could come back and loot it again in a few days!

Standing on the Floating Island, Xu Xuan looked down. The entire Mountain Foot Tribe had been burned to ruins. Hu Zi Mei used a stick to poke through the charcoal ash, revealing buried beast meat that was already fully roasted.

"Drag all that roasted beast meat up; it'll be perfect for dinner."

Hearing Xu Xuan say this, the tribe's warriors cheered and raised their bows and arrows high.

This was so satisfying!

Going to war with the Chief, these tribal wars were almost always victorious. They hadn't lost a single person, using bows and flames to scare the enemy tribe into scattering like birds and beasts.

Arrows rained down, and that group couldn't withstand more than a few hits before fleeing. This greatly increased the savages' confidence and stimulated their desire for war.

Every time they fought, they could harvest a large amount of food. Was there really such a good deal?

Meanwhile, Hu Zi Mei took some people to scout the surrounding area, capturing some female savages hiding in the grass and some lost tribal warriors.

With this, the number of people on Xu Xuan's Floating Island rose to 211!

Those male savages belonging to various tribes, along with most of the population from the Mountain Foot Tribe, once again greatly expanded Xu Xuan's strength.

Like a snowball, the tribe continued to grow and develop, and its combat power kept getting stronger.

Of course, the accompanying food pressure was also constantly increasing.

However, Xu Xuan didn't know that his successive battles were very conspicuous on the global rankings.

If he opened the Global Lord Rankings, he would see his name ranked first.

[Global Lords] — [War Rankings] — [Stone Age War Era]

[Great Xia Lord Xu Xuan has successfully occupied two territories, ranking first on the War Rankings!]

This made lords everywhere wonder: could this Xu Xuan be a war demon?

It hadn't even been three hours since the start, and he had already captured two territories. How on earth did he do it?

Everyone started with the same technology, and every lord initially had 100 savages. Could it be that the warriors of Xu Xuan's tribe had three heads and six arms?

This caused lords all over the world to start discussing the figure that was Xu Xuan.

As for Xu Xuan himself, he had already tasted the sweetness of war and was determined to take another territory today!

"Everyone, get up here quickly. Prepare to set out for the next area. Use stone axes to chop more wood to make bows and arrows!"

Almost without stopping, he was already preparing to invade the next area.

After all, the place Xu Xuan was in had a hundred million Japanese Lords.

While it was still the primitive tribe era, he had to expand as quickly as possible and keep making the Floating Island larger.

If one day he truly couldn't loot anymore, he would take the Floating Island and run away from this place.

"Prepare for the next war!"

Xu Xuan was already addicted to fighting and couldn't just stop.

He was already eyeing another tribe over ten kilometers away.

Thanks to the height of the Floating Island, he could ignore the terrain and the obstruction of the forest, clearly seeing the presence of other lords on the plains.

Of course, they could also clearly see Xu Xuan's Floating Island flying towards their territory.

At this time, Hu Zi Mei returned from her plundering, bringing back many new members.

Hu Zi Mei shouted boisterously, "This is our Chief. Follow our Chief, and I guarantee you'll eat and drink well!"

Xu Xuan glanced at these surrendered savages. Their lords had run away, and these savages had scattered and hidden nearby, only to be dragged out one by one by Hu Zi Mei.

Seeing them still shivering and looking a bit scared, Xu Xuan waved his hand. "Give them meat to eat and put the looted beast skins on them. Anyone who joins my Floating Island Tribe is one of our own!"

After all, they were still in the primitive tribe era, so there was no racial distinction; everyone just belonged to different tribes.

For example, the Yanhuang Tribe of Great Xia in history relied on constantly annexing and merging surrounding clans to gradually form the Huaxia Ethnic Group.

Especially the Battle of Zhuolu in ancient times. After Chi You's great defeat, most of his tribe merged into the Yanhuang Tribe, while the rest fled elsewhere and became other ethnic groups today.

In the final analysis, everyone was one family in ancient times.

Looking at these captured savages before him, they had no culture or group identity at this time, so the captured savages quickly integrated into his tribe.

Seeing the roasted meat and roasted berries just rescued from the village fires, steaming with white smoke, the new savages couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

Xu Xuan picked up a skewer of meat and handed it to the new savages. They were a bit terrified at first, but then they cautiously took it and had a bite.

Instantly, these newcomers fell in love with the taste of roasted meat and howled, "We are willing to pledge loyalty to the Chief!"

"We are willing to stay!"

Watching these nearly one hundred newcomers prostrating before him and shouting loudly.

Xu Xuan's heart was filled with heroic pride. "There's enough meat for everyone! After eating, we'll continue to seize food and people!"

When the whole piece of roasted meat was cut into strips with a stone axe and distributed to the new savages, they all devoured it ravenously.

As long as there was food, they quickly identified with the Floating Island Tribe and chose to defect to Xu Xuan in no time.

The new savages bit into the roasted meat in large mouthfuls; they had never eaten anything so delicious.

Meanwhile, the other savages were already chopping trees on the Floating Island, cutting down every tree they could to make arrows.

In the battle just now, Xu Xuan had also seen the benefits of arrows.

As long as there were many people, release arrows simultaneously!

A single volley could always take out seven or eight enemies.

The only downside was the lack of feathers. If there were feathers, they could be glued to the end of the arrows to provide stability.

If there were feathers, the arrows could be shot more accurately.

By now, the entire tribe had transformed into a war machine, becoming a pack of insatiable hungry wolves, already preparing for the next war!

The advantage of the Floating Island was that it could move while allowing the tribe to rest.

Everyone stayed on the island to conserve their strength. By the time the Floating Island drifted in front of the enemy, the tribal warriors' stamina would be full.

It could be said that Xu Xuan didn't dare to be negligent for a moment; he had to seize the dividends of the primitive era and maximize the role of the Floating Island.

At this time, the Floating Island had drifted in front of Tokugawa Ieyasu's territory.

With previous experience, he only needed to release fire arrows to ignite the surroundings and make those savages retreat!

However, when Xu Xuan looked down from his high vantage point at the Tokugawa Tribe several hundred meters away.

He saw that hundreds of tribal warriors had already gathered in their village, and they were holding something strange in their hands.

Seeing this, Xu Xuan frowned.

"Animal bladders as water bags?"

The opponent had made many wooden shields from planks and had also piled up a large number of water bags in the village; the opponent had made all the preparations.
