A group of hunters, numbering close to seventy people, were moving rapidly along a winding river and canyon.
Among them were hunters wearing leather armor and holding bows and arrows, and savages wearing furs and holding sticks.
The clothing movements are distinct but unified.
The mountains, rivers and fields are lonely, with big fallen trees, yellow weeds and some evergreen plants mixed together, making the mountains and fields look chaotic and mottled.
The frightened wild birds flew around, and the frightened beasts fled everywhere.
If they saw these wild beasts on weekdays, the hunters would naturally not let them go easily, but today everyone turned a blind eye and focused on moving forward.
Moreover, everyone seemed to be holding their breath, and everyone's eyes held a kind of surprise or fear.
It was the Ba hunters who were surprised, but naturally it was the Maotun hunters who were frightened.
Xu Chen didn't give the Maotun people a chance to watch the excitement and take advantage of it.
In this war, no matter what, he will drag the Maotun tribe into the background.
It is his consistent philosophy that a dead Taoist friend will never die a poor Taoist.
Naturally, the one who supported me at home was Feng and a group of other tribal Tiehanhan.
Outside are these strange barbaric tribes.
As a time traveler, no one can take advantage of him.
Although he always likes to persuade people with virtue, he complains with virtue, how can he repay kindness with kindness? For these barbarians who are still accustomed to cannibalizing human flesh, they need to go through several real labor reforms before they can slowly become civilized.
If everything in this surprise war goes according to plan, there will be almost no suspense about victory.
But right now, he couldn't grasp the outcome at all.
Because he had no idea what the situation was like on Mo's side, who was now moving reinforcements.
He was not worried that the Gonghuo Tribe would not send troops to participate. What he was worried about was that Mo and the others would not be able to reach the Gonghuo Tribe smoothly on time, and might even be collectively wiped out in the Wulong River downstream where they had no idea what was going on.
But there was no turning back when he fired his bow. He could not wait for help from the Maotun tribe, let alone go back home the way he came.
Because Mo had rowed away all the rafts, there was no way he could continue on his way back.
What's more, this opportunity for training is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He hopes that through this troop deployment cooperation, he can strengthen the unified command and military operations between the two different alliances, make the connection between the alliance and the tribe closer, and pave the way for more such collaborations in the future.
Action provides proven cases.
It's already the fourth day since Mo left.
According to the estimated time, it would take Mo and others one day to reach the La tribe, one day to reach the Gonghuo tribe, more than half a day to mobilize the hunters of the two tribes to reach the other side of the river, and at least half a day to cross the river with so many people.
So four days is a good planning plan.
But whether they can arrive normally is still unknown.
But no matter what, he needs to arrive near the Yugong clan at the scheduled time to monitor the ambush in advance. Only in this way can he ensure that the tower-stealing plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain will be a complete success.
This is just a small joint military operation separated by dozens of miles. In ancient China, there were large-scale wars involving hundreds of thousands of troops separated by thousands of miles. In the absence of timely and good communication means, fighting all relied on discipline.
and luck.
Any military leader who does not arrive at his destination on time will basically end up receiving a box lunch.
Xu Chen began to miss the two big eagles at home.
If these two beasts can be trained well, and one can send messages back and forth, depending on their flying speed in the sky, the communication time can be shortened to the hour level.
The small harrier can attack at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour, while Haidongqing, known as the Falcon King, can reach a top speed of 300 kilometers per hour. The horned eagle, the killer of monkeys, is even faster and is known as the Wings of Light.
When hunting, it is so fast that even high-definition cameras cannot capture its movements.
In the eyes of these sky-dominant raptors, time, space and distance are completely meaningless. As long as the prey they target is almost a dead end.
Under the sharp claws of the horned eagle, which can reach up to fifty kilograms of gripping power, not to mention monkeys, even adult giant wolves will not be able to escape death.
The two silly eagles raised by Xu Chen should be larger and stronger than the horned eagles when they grow up. If they can be tamed and used as communication tools, they can basically catch up with the speed of telegraph within a hundred kilometers, and they have powerful flight and air control capabilities.
There is almost no possibility of being shot down. It is a completely super confidential communication device.
It's a pity that those two creatures are now so raised that they can't even fly and are almost useless.
Xu Chen gnashed his teeth as he hurried on.
After returning this time, we must train these two guys to fly no matter what.
It doesn’t matter if I fly out and never come back.
Out of sight, out of mind, standing on the wooden shelf dozing off day after day with an impatient look on his face, it was really disturbing to watch.
The distance from the Maotun tribe to the Yugong tribe is about fifty miles.
We set off in the early morning, and when the sun was about to set, we could already see the valley where the Yu Gong clan lived in the distance.
The Maotun people have been traveling on this road for many years, so they are still very familiar with it. They rested and drank water in secret along the way, stopping and going for almost seven hours.
According to the plan, after Mo moved to the reinforcements, he would not cross the river directly on the other side of the river where the Yu Gong clan appeared. Instead, he would find a hidden place to cross the river a few miles downstream. He would not join forces until all the troops had crossed the river.
After advancing on the Yu Gong clan and using their powerful momentum to attract the main force of the Yu Gong clan, it was then Xu Chen's time to take action.
Right now, he needed to find the Yu Gong clan's lair as soon as possible and find a hidden location suitable for launching an attack quickly.
As the sun sets, the water of the Wulong River is gentle in winter, and the sparkling water reflects layers of golden light in the setting sun.
Tired birds are flying all over the sky, it is time to return to their nests.
The hunters of the Yugong tribe who were hunting near the river beach also began to call their companions to take their prey home in groups as usual.
While walking, many hunters occasionally couldn't help but glance at the river.
A few days ago, a group of mysterious weirdos rode huge and terrifying water beasts and rode down the waves. Everyone was frightened. They went back and informed the great witch. The great witch did not say anything for a long time and only asked them to pay attention to the movements of the river.
.
But there was no movement for several days, but the horrific scene that day still lingered in their minds like a shadow. Therefore, whether they were hunting or walking, as long as they came to the river, they would always look towards the river consciously or unconsciously.
A few glances.
Fortunately, those mysterious weirdos didn't show up.
And just as these Yu Gong tribe hunters were heading back to the valley not far away, a few miles downstream, there was also a huge team of hunters quickly walking through the thick weeds and thorns, heading towards the valley.
direction.
This hunter team numbered close to eighty people, all wearing rattan armor or simple leather armor, or roughly stitched animal skin clothes. They were equipped with bows, arrows, spears and rattan shields. The team was arranged neatly, and there was no trace of anything while running.
When people talk, they can only occasionally hear a few rapid-fire commands.
At the head of the team were several burly and muscular men, especially one of them who was wearing a double-layered leather armor and looked like a giant bear. He had a black forehead band on his head and looked extremely ferocious.
.
While running, a man suddenly picked up a broken spear on the ground, with a smile on his face.
"Yu Gong is here!"
A relieved smile instantly appeared on the ferocious face of the giant bear-like iron tower man, and he took off a huge bow as thick as an arm from his back.
There was a violent commotion in the team of hunters behind them, and everyone's face showed a look of joy.
In order to reach the Yu Gong clan before sunset according to Xu Chen's plan, they were racing against time almost all the time.
It went smoothly from the Gonghuo Clan to the river mouth, but it took nearly three hours to find a suitable location to cross the river and to cross the river completely. Then it took another two hours to walk for more than ten miles through thorny grass with almost no roads.
Many hours of time.
Hurrying slowly, we finally arrived at the hunting area of the Yu Gong clan before sunset.
This broken spear indicates that this place is not far from the Yu Gong clan's lair.
"Moxy Gaga?"
An excited hunter team leader came over excitedly and asked.
Mo Helei was momentarily hesitant.
According to the plan, after they find the Yu Gong clan, they will launch an attack with great fanfare to attract the attention of all the hunters of the Yu Gong clan and create opportunities for Xu Chen's sneak attack.
But now I don’t know if Xu Chen arrived on time.
After struggling for a moment, Mo gritted his teeth and said: "Act as planned, this is the order of His Majesty the Witch King!"
"Follow the order!"
Lei clasped his fists with a look on his face, then turned around and shouted: "Blow the horn and raise the flag!"
"Woo~wu~wu~~~~"
The trumpeters of the Thunder Tribe, the Gonghuo Tribe, and the Ba Tribe blew the bark horns almost at the same time, and the two flags with flames and thunderbolt symbols were erected, rolling in the cold wind of the setting sun.
"Ouch~~"
At the sound of the horn, Lei took the lead and held a huge bow and roared forward like a tiger. The hunters behind him who had been gathering momentum for a long time also rushed out with howling and strange sounds, walking through the grass and the sunset, like a group of predatory beasts.
It's like finding prey.
“#￥%@……”
Not far ahead, the hunters of the Yu Gong clan who were regrouping and heading home to the valley suddenly heard a strange sound coming from behind and stopped instantly.
This sound was strange and terrifying, as if I had heard it somewhere before.
And the distance is not far, just a poop downstream.
After waiting for a moment in fear and nervousness, the sound from downstream became louder and louder. It seemed that in addition to this strange and frightening sound, human roars could also be heard. Many hunters panicked instantly, and some people quickly climbed up nearby.
It was a big tree, but when I climbed halfway and looked downstream for a few times, I jumped down in fear, rolled over, and started yelling like crazy.
A group of hunters from the Yugong clan panicked instantly.
Some people didn't believe it and climbed up the tree again to look at it, but they soon rolled down in fear and turned around and ran away to the valley, while shouting that the monster was coming.
This roar didn't matter, the hunter team was completely in chaos. They scattered in all directions and fled in all directions. Some even lost the spears, clubs and even the prey that were in the way. They only regretted that my mother had lost two legs.
It's not that they are not savage enough and are too timid to fight.
But since a group of mysterious humans rode giant beasts down the river a few days ago, the fear they caused has been indelible.
No savage is arrogant enough to fight with a tribe riding giant beasts in the water.
And these strange roars must be made by those monsters.
As a result, before the combined forces of the Gonghuo Clan and the Thunder Clan arrived, the hunters of the Yu Gong Clan were already mentally shattered. They didn't even dare to wait until they could fully see the enemy before they fled back to the valley howling like ghosts and wolves.
