After a simple meal, a group of people continued to set off.

In terms of the journey, it is already half over, and according to the Ji tribe hunter who led the team, the most difficult place to walk now has passed. After climbing over this hillside and passing the next cliff, it is not far from the Gonghuo tribe. As long as everything goes well, you will definitely arrive before dark.

Xu Chen breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the so-called difficulty was mainly two steep valleys and cliffs. If one person had no help from his companions, it would be difficult to climb over, but if there were too many people, he pushed each other and clutched ropes, these difficulties were actually not difficult.

However, what made Xu Chen and others most uneasy was that the dragon seemed to be following them all the time. Occasionally, a loud roar could be heard from the mountain canyon not far away. It was obviously very angry at the group of humans who harassed its survival territory and hurt it yesterday, and always wanted to find a chance to revenge.

But now he doesn't have the energy to deal with this matter.

The dragon's territory consciousness is very strong, and he may give up after leaving this mountain.

Therefore, Xu Chen could only constantly urge a group of hunters to accelerate and accelerate again. The earlier you left here, the better.

A group of hunters probably knew the habits of dragons, so they kept rushing to the road, and their speed increased a lot.

After walking around the mountains for more than ten miles south, there was indeed a broken-head cliff ahead, as if a natural chasm was standing in front of everyone.

The mountains opposite are obviously much lower, and the orogenic movement seems to have come to an abrupt end here. Looking around, the southeast is full of long and low mountains, which is in a huge contrast with the towering form of green mountains behind us.

According to the Ji tribe hunter, this is the second place that is difficult to walk on. As long as you go to the bottom of the cliff, you will basically enter the sphere of influence of the Gonghuo tribe.

In the past, when their tribe was hunting, they could meet people from the Gonghuo tribe nearby.

However, this cliff is extremely steep, and most places go down vertically at nearly 90 degrees. Standing on the edge of the cliff and looking down, you can vaguely see the situation at the foot of the mountain through the white fog surrounding the mountainside. Although it is not as cloudy as Yinlong Gorge, it looks terrifying.

A group of people searched along both sides of the Duantou cliff, and with the guidance of the guide, they finally found a place that could barely pass through.

This is a natural crack. There are some thorny vines and weed trees growing in the cracks of the rocks. If you climb normally, it will take at least three hours for so many people.

But after having two rope climbing experiences, a group of hunters already knew how to get through this place, so they looked for a big tree near the crack, tied the ropes, and then slowly went down in batches. In less than an hour, this seemingly natural barrier was also successfully overcome.

"And~~"

After a group of people went down to the foot of the mountain, they could still hear the dragon roaring near the top of the mountain.

Xu Chen and others didn't care too much except that they were a little nervous.

After suffering a loss yesterday, he expected that the dragon would not attack them blatantly, otherwise it would definitely be back and forth this time, because a group of hunters had already been full of fire and had nowhere to vent.

After crossing mountains and ridges for two consecutive days, I couldn’t eat well and sleep well. Many people have begun to turn into panda eyes. They are already black-faced, but now they are even darker. Everyone’s eyes seem to have been punched twice, and it looks like they have signs of collective mutation.

In front of me is a dense primeval forest with a relatively flat slope, and they are all earth slopes similar to hills. It is much easier to walk. After walking in the mountains for two or three miles, I climbed to the top of a mountain again, and I suddenly saw a cheerful look.

I saw a vast basin plain at the foot of the mountain, and a river meandered from the northwest, crossed the basin and went southeast.

The mountains in the southeast are even lower, and you can vaguely see a slight white light, which seems to be a larger river, perhaps the big river flowing through the Bawu tribes.

At this time, the sun shone slanted down from the southwest direction, and wild beasts were galloping on the plains on both sides of the river for food. Birds spread their wings in the sky, the sky was high and the earth was vast, and the scenery was amazing. Only Xu Chen's heart was pounding.

The territory of the Ba tribe was too small. He always thought that the impact of the river beach outside the Wu tribe valley was good and suitable for group building cities. Later, because of the rising water in spring and summer, he was very regretful. But after seeing the vast basin plain with abundant water and grass in front of him, he felt that this place was a truly unique place.

If you move here, whether it is farming or animal husbandry, it will be more than thousands of times better than the Ba tribe and Wu tribe.

Especially the river is abundant, and the downstream is not far into the river. The mountains in the southeast are low, and they have unique advantages whether by water or by land.

"Gaga!"

The Ji hunter who led the way pointed to a low valley seven or eight miles away from the lower reaches of the river to remind everyone.

It seems that the valley is the old nest of the Gonghuo Clan.

The river in front of me should be that small river flowing from the Ji tribe. After flowing through hundreds of miles along the way, it has gathered several tributaries along the way. It is obviously much larger. There is still plenty of water in winter. It seems that there is no problem with the small boats of more than ten tons running, and the small wooden boats are even more ok.

Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous.

Xu Chen decided to eat this Feng Shui treasure land.

The development of human civilization is the process of continuous migration from mountains to plains.

But it is obvious that the Gonghuo Clan is moving faster than the Uzu Clan.

Although they have not yet begun to learn how to farm and livestock on the plains, the unique environment here will give birth to more plant-type foods, developing from traditional wild fruits in the forest to cereals and grains.

When someone finally realizes that it is possible to cultivate land and plant, real grains and cereals will also begin to appear, and humans will slowly enter the era of farming.

"Be careful to hide and go!"

Xu Chen could no longer contain his greed and excitement at this time.

He hid in the mountains with a large group of hunters.

Starting from the Ba people, I marched like a marching trip for three days and two nights, and finally saw such a good piece of land. Xu Chen felt that all the efforts were worth it.

Now we have to take advantage of the unpreparedness of the Gonghuo clan and take down its nest in one fell swoop.

This area is already the active territory of the Gonghuo Clan, so it needs to be more careful.

The mountains and forests are no longer the deserted mountains and ridges that were rarely visited yesterday, but can clearly see the remains of human activities. In some places, there are traces left by walking, and in some places, there are obviously artificially processed wooden sticks or broken spears.

The closer you are to the valley, the more obvious the traces of such human activities are.

Two hours later, a group of people finally arrived near the ridge near the valley.

At this time, the sun was already west, not far from the sunset.

"Yehhh~~Yehhh~~~"

The shouts of men and women came from the hillside and near the foot of the mountain.

Even through the woods, you can see people walking back and forth on the hillside and at the foot of the mountain.

Although he was tired, hungry and thirsty, the target was right in front of him, and everyone could not suppress his nervousness and excitement. He held his weapon tightly and wanted to rush down at any time.

However, Xu Chen told everyone not to act rashly, but to stop and lie down to rest and maintain sufficient strength.

It's too bright now and it's not suitable to do it.

Waiting for the sun to set, the Gonghuo tribe has finished supper and started to rest is the best time to start.

In addition, the situation on the mountainside is unknown. We need to carefully investigate how many people, how many caves are there, where the men have, and how many men still have, and then divide the troops into several groups to take action. It is best to catch them all in one go.

Since it has arrived, Xu Chen is not in a hurry. He strives to be stable, the more stable the better, as stable as an old dog.

Otherwise, if he would be overwhelmed by the mountains and rivers, he would be caught by other savages. That would be unlucky.

After a while of rest, I observed that there were many places in the large areas near the mountainside and foot of the mountain. It was obvious that it was the place where the tribes gathered to sleep. Therefore, Xu Chen arranged for Feng to take some people to inquire about the situation.

It was nearly an hour before waiting. After several teams of inquiry returned one after another, the sun had completely set and the entire valley quickly became dimmed. In some places that were still noisy just now, the sound gradually became quiet.

Working from sunrise and resting from sunset. In a barbaric era when there are no candles that survive by relying on the sun's light, all human activities are arranged according to the sun's movement.

After Xu Chen summarized and analyzed the situations of several teams briefly inquired, he also made a relatively clear judgment.

The number of people in the Gonghuo tribe is indeed more than that of the Wu tribe, and the area where they live is larger. The entire semicircular mountainside of the valley is distributed to the large area at the foot of the mountain.

The largest cave is located on the hillside in the southwest direction, and there are three smaller caves nearby, most of whom live nearby.

Nearly one-third of the rest were scattered among several other caves in the valley.

I rarely see men. According to the information, there should be less than fifty of them in total, which is almost the same as the initial speculation.

All the rest are women, children, young and old.

Although the intelligence is simple, it is enough for this battle.

In fact, Xu Chen took a lot of risks in this operation.

But his main confidence lies in the asymmetry of information, thinking and weapons.

Although he only brought more than 60 people, he was not much more than the men who stayed in the Gonghuo Clan.

But no matter in terms of age and strength, they are much stronger. They are basically young and strong. Moreover, everyone has received at least nearly a month of military training, and their combat qualities are incomparable to ordinary savages.

In addition, they are prepared to catch their opponent off guard.

In addition, bows and arrows are portable and easy to attack.

This raid is sure to win.

Xu Chen made some simple arrangements based on the situation he came back from inquiry, and a group of hunters quickly dispersed and set off.

Feng led the main force of forty people to attack the main hole, and swept the three nearby small holes. The remaining places were divided into groups of five people, and went to several other gathering positions in the valley.

The manpower is a little short of enough, but this is also the time when the Gonghuo tribe is at its weakest defense.

Because Xu Chen is experienced, it will be dark or not at this time. It is the most lively time for men and women in the tribe to drive piles.
