This Is My Primitive Tribe-Chapter 243 - 159: The New Changes in the Vine Tribe

"What a tall wall."

Within the Vine Tribe’s territory, Jiang Xuan rode the Crescent, while Chi Shao rode a Great Horned Deer, walking side by side along the vine wall that stood over ten meters tall, observing the massive vines intertwined together.

These vines were not branches of the Divine Vine, but rather ordinary vines controlled and grown by the Divine Vine using Divine Power.

There were thorny vines as well as various vines commonly found in the jungle.

After being catalyzed by Divine Power, they seemed quite different from ordinary plants, with added vitality.

Chi Shao said, "With these walls, it won’t be so easy for people from other tribes to enter our Vine Tribe in the future."

Jiang Xuan nodded; if it were to rely on manpower to build such a tall and long wall, one could not begin to fathom how much labor, resources, and years it would require.

If the wall were to be damaged in the future, repairing it would also be an extremely troublesome task.

However, this vine wall doesn’t require any effort from the people of the Vine Tribe, and since they are alive, they can continue to grow.

Provided there are no unexpected incidents, this wall will protect the Vine Tribe for many years, after all, the lifespan of plants is incredibly long.

"What do you plan to do with those prisoners? Including the ones captured from the Jackal Tribe before, our tribe now has over two thousand prisoners," Chi Shao asked as they walked.

Over two thousand prisoners is an enormous number, considering the true members of the Vine Tribe, including the old, weak, sick, and disabled, total only about five hundred.

In other tribes, they would either kill all the prisoners or exile them, without considering keeping them in the tribe as they couldn’t possibly sustain them.

Jiang Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, the situation is not that bad."

"More than half of the prisoners from the Jackal Tribe are already not opposed to joining the Vine Tribe. If they perform well subsequently, we can accept these five hundred of them."

"At the second settlement, a lot of farmland has already been developed, where a large amount of crops have been planted, and livestock farming has also begun. In terms of food, it’s a bit tight now, but things should improve after the crops are harvested."

"Moreover, now that this wall protects the tribe’s territory, we don’t face as much pressure from other tribes."

"As long as we get through this period, these prisoners will become the main labor force of the Vine Tribe in the future, and we won’t have to worry about insufficient manpower!"

If all these prisoners transform into members of the Vine Tribe, plus the subsequent newborns, in just a year, the population of the Vine Tribe will exceed three thousand!

This is a rapid growth opportunity for the Vine Tribe.

Jiang Xuan does not want to miss such an opportunity.

Chi Shao said, "You’re the leader, since you’ve already decided, then let’s keep these prisoners."

All along, regardless of the decisions made by Jiang Xuan, Chi Shao has always supported him.

Besides, over the long period, most decisions made by Jiang Xuan have been proven beneficial for the Vine Tribe.

Even if some decisions were not exactly right, they didn’t cause much harm.

After all, who can be free from making mistakes?

"Where do you plan to place these prisoners? Are you still sending them across the river?"

"No, there are too many prisoners. If we send them across the river, we would need a large number of Warriors to guard them."

"Let them stay on this side; with the vine wall here, they can’t escape, not to mention the Vine God is here, they can’t pull off any major actions."

"I plan to have them clear the forests near the settlement and plant fast-growing wild vegetables to quickly alleviate the food shortage problem."

Chi Shao nodded and said, "Let’s decide on that then."

The two rode their mounts and inspected along the vine wall.

The vine wall formed a semicircle, and it’s not completely enclosed, leaving entry and exit openings on the west, north, and south sides.

The Warriors of the Vine Tribe Guard Team no longer need to crouch in ground pits as hidden sentinels as before; they just have to guard these three openings.

Jiang Xuan also plans to build several tall watchtowers along the vine wall, where the Warriors of the Vine Tribe can sit inside and have a full view of the surroundings, which is very convenient.

Additionally, Jiang Xuan is also considering asking the Vine God to continue extending the vine wall eastward across Feiyu River to encircle the second settlement.

This way, the Vine Tribe can develop peacefully within the high walls without constantly worrying about being raided.

Of course, the vine wall is not omnipotent; if the opposing tribe’s power far exceeds the Vine Tribe, no wall can withstand.

A Totem God with sufficient strength can easily destroy the vine wall, allowing the opposing tribe’s Warriors to march right in.

Thus, continuously enhancing the tribe’s overall power is the most important thing.

After inspecting the vine wall, Jiang Xuan was quite satisfied with the defensive state and returned with Chi Shao.

The first task is to settle those prisoners.

The arrangement for over fifteen hundred prisoners is not a simple task.

After much deliberation, Jiang Xuan ultimately decided to settle them in the forests on the southern side of the Vine Tribe, within sight of the Giant Eagle’s nest.

The Giant Eagle, along with the Divine Vine, should create enough deterrence to keep them from causing trouble.

As for the safety of the Old Witch, Jiang Xuan has no worries.

This mysterious old man, though always claiming not to have much time left, possesses unfathomable strength. Even Jiang Xuan himself wouldn’t dare claim he could defeat him.
