194 Navabaska
As the leader of the Nawabasca tribe, Ricardo has eaten a lot of good food. When he went to the city to discuss matters on behalf of the tribe, he experienced high-end restaurants more than once.
The steak he tasted tonight reminded him of the high-end restaurants in Buenos Aires.
Ricardo subconsciously wanted to ask for another piece or two, but when he turned around and saw the mages and a circle of people from his own tribe staring at him, his small appetite disappeared.
Li Yu in front of him asked: "How is it?"
Ricardo: "It tastes very good."
Li Yu: "I have something I want to talk to you about. Let's go to a quieter place nearby."
Ricardo hesitated for a moment and nodded.
The two walked to the other side of the off-road vehicle.
At this time, Amaranda had learned Li Yu's technique of frying steaks and was frying them piece by piece. Then Puga cut them and distributed them to the Gauchos. From the elderly to the children, almost everyone tasted the aroma.
Tender and juicy steak, but the more lively children ate more.
Under Li Yu's whispered instructions, both Amaranda and Pujia understood the meaning of this move - to close the distance with this group of Gauchos and let them understand that 'if you follow us, you will have meat to eat'.
It was lively over there, but here, Li Yu and Ricardo stood face to face, chatting seemingly casually.
"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Li Yu. I am a special operations specialist sent to South America by the Mage Association. My task is to organize resistance forces in the fringe areas beyond the control of the Kingdom of God, so I will help tribes like you.
.”
"I understand," the strong man took off the wide-brimmed hat on his head, "We, Navabasca, are a traditional Gaucho tribe. My name is Ricardo, and I am the fixed leader of the tribe. We are now...
Really need help."
Li Yu asked: "Are you short of daily necessities?"
Ricardo smiled bitterly and said: "That's really in short supply. We were allocated a pasture before to graze cattle and sheep, and we usually made a living mainly by selling wool. But this time we escaped in such a hurry that we didn't bring out a single sheep.
There are also stored grains, beef jerky and the like left there. You may have seen just now that we only have a little dry flour left."
This strong man did not hide the plight of his tribe. On the one hand, the Gauchos did not like to invade the city, and on the other hand, he knew that he could not hide it.
Li Yu: "Then what are your plans next?"
Ricardo thought for a while and said after careful consideration: "We want to go south, away from those crazy false believers. Whether it's farming or mining, of course it would be great if you can do herding. Our tribe
We are a big family. We are used to being together and no one wants to be separated."
Li Yu smiled and said: "If you don't think about it, pick up the gun and fight back to your homeland?"
Ricardo was stunned for a moment, frowned slightly and stared at the black-haired young man in front of him, secretly speculating.
The smile on Li Yu's face was very sincere, as if he was giving normal advice to a friend.
After a while, Ricardo said: "But we are not soldiers, and we are not very skilled in using guns."
Li Yu nodded: "I understand, so I just asked you if you have this idea. If you don't have this plan, forget it."
Ricardo stared at him and asked, "What if we have this plan?"
Li Yu: "The Mage Association has granted me the power to organize guerrillas. If you are willing to follow my arrangements, you can lead the army and become a force under the Mage Association."
Ricardo was a little skeptical: "A tribe like ours with old people and children can also..."
Li Yu smiled and said: "Of course there is no problem. What I organized is a guerrilla team, not a regular army on the frontal battlefield. You don't need to separate. You can join the entire tribe."
Ricardo: “What about the kids in their early teens?”
Li Yu: "It depends on what you think. You can be a non-staff member of the guerrilla team, or you can officially join and become a small soldier. We are a guerrilla team. We can avoid the enemy's actions as much as possible and only attack the enemy's weakest points.
.The little soldiers can look after the wounded and look out for the wind, and they can still make a contribution without having to participate in the most dangerous battles."
Ricardo lowered his head and remained silent.
Li Yu didn't urge him, he just raised his head and looked at the bright moon.
Suddenly, Ricardo said: "I need to talk to them."
Li Yu waved his hand: "Go ahead. But I also want to remind you that you can go with me first tomorrow, to the east, to the beach."
Ricardo: "Why go to the beach?"
Li Yu: "There is a supply point of the Mage Association there. Since you are short of supplies, you can get supplies there."
Ricardo looked wary: "This can't be free, right?"
Li Yu spread his hands: "Indeed, it costs money, so I hope to get something corresponding, such as the allegiance of the Nawabasca tribe."
Ricardo: "I only said it once, and you remembered our tribe name..."
Li Yu pointed to his forehead: "I have a very good memory. In addition, compared to fleeing south without a clue, I think the dangers faced will be easier to control if you follow me."
Ricardo did not refute, just bowed his head and remained silent.

The group of Gauchos gathered back around the big bonfire. Some middle-aged and elderly people, led by Ricardo, came to the inner circle and started discussing in low voices.
On the other side, Amaranda and Puja had already put away the cooking supplies and set up a tent.
The tent can be set up automatically as soon as it is placed on the ground. You don’t need to use your hands to set it up. It can be set up in the blink of an eye.
Captain Garcia was marveling: "We haven't seen each other for many years. The magician's skills are getting more and more powerful..."
Li Yu didn't plan to sleep in a tent. He got into the car and dug out pillows and quilts in the back seat.
Puja opened the car door, sat in the passenger seat, turned around and stared at him, and asked: "How is the progress of our recruitment? Has the tribal leader agreed?"
Li Yu said calmly: "Not yet, but I think it may be soon."
Pooja: "If they don't agree to join, then do we still need to help them?"
Li Yu pouted slightly: "I'm not a charity person. If they don't join, then I'll just show them the way and let them go to Bonfire Town to find a job. Otherwise, there's nothing to help."
Pujia looked forward to it: "Then if they join, will our guerrilla team have been formed?"
The guerrilla teams organized by the association range from a few dozen to a hundred people, and usually do not exceed a hundred and fifty people. In order to facilitate and covert operations, the basic organizational units cannot be too redundant.
Li Yu nodded.
Pujia asked again: "Have you decided on the name of the team?"
"We don't have a formal number..." Li Yu muttered, "Then let's call it Venus according to the company name."
