Three days later, when Huang Yi led four teenagers to pursue the tribe, they were no longer able to ride horses because each horse carried a weight of more than 300 kilograms.

These venison, yellow lamb, and rabbit meat must be enough to feed Huang Yi's family of six for more than a month.

Not only that, deerskin, sheepskin, and rabbit skin can also be used to sew winter clothes and boots for the four teenagers, a job that Zhang is very good at.

The leather definitely needs to be tanned, otherwise how can it be preserved?

Fur goods are the main export product of the Mongols, and there is no shortage of Mongolians in every tribe who can do this kind of work.

The four teenagers were so happy that they believed even more in Huang Yi's promise that they would never go hungry by following Huang Yi.

Hedanbaat'er believed that Huang Yi could catch prey, because the day he was rescued by Huang Yi, he ate the yellow mutton hunted by Huang Yi, but he did not expect that Huang Yi would gain so much!

The knights in the tribe all knew that hunting not only relied on riding and shooting skills, but also relied on luck and teamwork. They were not optimistic about Huang Yi taking four skinny teenagers to hunt.

When they saw Huang Yi harvesting so many prey, they were all amazed!

But everyone admires those who have real skills. Life is difficult on the prairie, but a good hunter is one who has skills and everyone admires him.

Huang Yi could see changes in the eyes of those Mongolians. They should have begun to accept him.

In order to show his strength, deepen everyone's impression, and establish a tall and mighty image in everyone's mind.

When Huang Yi was surrounded by dozens of knights and hundreds of women, children and elderly people, he lifted a large stone high above his head and walked three times, which won everyone's applause.

Ka Letu, the first warrior in the tribe, not only shouted hello, but also stepped forward and lifted the stone Huang Yi put down high.

Then he also started walking, but he didn't complete three laps. He only walked one lap before throwing down the stone.

Next he pointed at the stone and said something loudly.

Huang Dayong told Huang Yi that Karitu was calling the strong men of several tribes to lift the big stone, saying that they should not let the Han people compete.

Sure enough, several more knights who thought they were very strong came and tried to lift the big stone.

It's a pity that they only carry it for a dozen steps, and no one can lift it up high anymore.

Huang Yi finally knew that although his strength was much greater, it was only greater than that of ordinary Mongolian young adults, and it was not beyond the reach of human beings.

Compared with himself, the real Mongolian strongman is not much different!

Karitu found that only he and Huang Yi in the tribe could lift the big stone above their heads. He laughed and came forward to get close to Huang Yi. He chattered a lot, but Huang Yi didn't understand a word.

Hedanbaat'er was also very strong and actually wanted to try to lift the big stone.

But he knew Karitu, and when he saw that Karitu failed to defeat Huang Yi, he felt unsure.

Instead of lifting a stone, he stepped forward and took Huang Yi's hand, raised it high, and said something loudly to the tribesmen.

The cheers of the onlookers became even louder, and Kaletu hugged Huang Yi's waist.

Huang Yi has not yet decided how to go in the future. He must live in this tribe now and have a good relationship with everyone.

Ka Letu took the initiative to get close to him, and of course Huang Yi greeted him with a smile.

Not only that, but you also have to maintain emotional contact with other warriors.

On the day they returned to the tribe, Zhang took the young man to give gifts to the warriors in the tribe. It was not a big gift, just a dozen kilograms of meat per family.

Of course, Huang Yi personally delivered it to Hedanbaater. It may be because the two of them were familiar with each other. Although they didn't understand each other, they could already understand the general idea through body movements and verbal communication.

Huang Yi also wanted to go hunting, and said that he would keep a small half of the harvest and the other half to share with Hedanbaat'er and his tribe.

No one would be satisfied with too much food, let alone this tribe who was often half hungry and half full.

With Huang Yi, a warrior with superb hunting skills, helping to store food for the winter, Hedanbaatar just felt that he had found a treasure. How could he disagree?

Then Huang Yi asked about the direction of the tribe's migration, saying that he would hunt in this direction. This had great benefits and improved efficiency.

Because there is no need to go back and look for the tribe, you can just wait for the tribe to come and join together.

These words are relatively long and cannot be explained clearly through body language, so Huang Dayong is still asked to translate.

After hearing this, Hedanbaat'er praised Huang Yi for being smart and immediately explained the direction of the tribe's migration to Huang Dayong.

Huang Yi set off again and basically couldn't tell that he was different, because he was also wearing a coarse cloth coat. If you didn't look at the hiking shoes on his feet, you couldn't tell that he was modern at all.

People are like iron rice or steel, and whether they can have a full stomach is too important.

It had only been less than five days in total, and it was like watching the four young men Huang Dazhi and Huang Dayong grow stronger.

The four teenagers are also silly and happy from time to time, especially the youngest Huang Daquan, who often laughs like a child.

The five men rode toward the southwest. After running for more than an hour, a small hillside appeared in front of them.

When Huang Yi sees high ground, he always climbs up to take a closer look, and this time is no exception.

But this time something unexpected happened.

Huang Yi was also careless. Instead of dismounting his horse and quietly climbing up the hillside to search carefully, he directly rode up to the high ground, with the four teenagers following closely behind.

The five of them and three horses did not discover the situation first, but were discovered by a group of knights less than three miles away from the hill.

Huang Yi was about to search with a telescope when the sharp-eyed Huang Dazhi suddenly shouted:

"Master, run quickly!"

"What's going on?" Huang Yi asked without reacting.

Huang Dazhi pointed to the hillside and said eagerly: "There are at least a dozen people on horseback and holding swords there. They have already rushed over."

Huang Dayong also exclaimed: "They are horse thieves, those people must be horse thieves!"

"Horse thief?"

Huang Yi suddenly felt his scalp numb. As the name suggests, how could the horse thief's equestrian skills be any worse?

He has made up his mind that he must not play chase with those people. He knows his own family affairs, and with his riding skills, he cannot ride a horse on the grassland and shoot with a crossbow at the same time.

He was unable to attack the enemy from a distance, so he was constantly being attacked from a distance. He was fully armed, but the horse had no protection.

After the horse was shot, it kicked up. Given Huang Yi's ability to control the horse, it would be impossible. Nine times out of ten, he would be thrown off the horse. Even if he didn't fall to death, he would definitely end up in a mess.

The chasing knights didn't even need to fight. They could just drive their horses and trample Huang Yi to death.

So you can't run at all. If you are really attacked, the faster you run, the faster you will die.

In a hurry, Huang Yi made a last resort decision. He jumped off his horse and said loudly: "Huang Dazhi quickly rides on my horse, and you all run back to report the news."

This decision was quite wise. The four young men were all inferior in fighting ability, but their riding skills were not inferior to those of the Mongols.

In addition, their bodies are light and the weight of the horses is small. As long as they are not hindered by their second sword, the chance of outperforming the horse thieves who are still two or three miles away is great.
