Chapter 312
A large group of people lined up in a long line, walking in the towering and cold forest of giant trees, stepping on thick fallen leaves, dead branches and moss, making a puff sound.
Along the way, some Maozun captives kept picking up some falling wild fruits to satisfy their hunger, but Xu Chen didn't care. They would definitely cause trouble if they didn't let them eat them at all, and they might even take the opportunity to escape.
The captive army is responsible for escorting.
The wind and a group of hunters were scattered around to guard and defend. Occasionally, they encountered wild beasts in the forest foraging, and they would chase and hunt. They even harvested continuously along the way. After walking more than ten miles, they had already killed six or seven wild beasts, but they were all small beasts, wild deer foxes, jackals and rabbits, etc., as well as several wild birds of large size. Although they were not enough for everyone to fill their stomachs, they could also supplement some fresh meat.
The powerful hunting ability of the Ba tribe hunters and the powerful power of the bows and arrows in their hands made a group of Mao Tun captives even more afraid. They were honest like kindergarten children, queuing up, no one caused trouble, and no one ran away.
After crossing a not-too-high mountain, a larger valley appeared in front of him, a river that was not much larger than Wushui, winding along the valley and flowing to the southeast.
After walking and stopping, most of the day passed by. As the river surface gradually widened, some large flat river beaches began to appear in front. According to the gestures of a group of prisoners, not far ahead was the habitat of the Maotun tribe.
After arriving here, Xu Chen also began to take seriously, slowing down the troops and arranging the Feng and a group of young hunters to explore the way forward.
An hour later, the large army walked forward for another four or five miles. The explorer came back to report that he had almost four or five miles away, and then he arrived at the Maotun clan's nest.
At this time, the sun had begun to go west, and it was estimated that it would be almost around the sunset when it reached the Maotun clan.
Therefore, Xu Chen ordered the army to stop and rest on the spot, drink water and eat to accumulate energy, and prepare to use the same trick again to steal the tower again.
The military strategy says: the superior army attacks the plan, the second is the enemy, the second is the enemy, the next is the enemy, the next is the enemy, the next is the enemy.
Taking advantage of the situation but not the situation is the best way to win.
Fight against the fire and wait.
The reason why humans take such a long time to give birth and raise adulthood but still become the master of living beings is intelligence.
Therefore, what humans are most powerful is not strength and speed, but wisdom beyond all species.
After resting for about half an hour, the sun was even more westward, with an hour at most before sunset. Xu Chen ordered the team to set off again.
This time, Xu Chen asked the captive legion of the Gonghuo clan to take off his leather armor and apply soil paint all over his body, mixing with the captives of the Maotun clan.
However, all the Maosun tribes were tied up and connected into several strings, carrying the beasts hunted along the way, as if they were returning from Desheng.
Mo took the remaining two teams of Ba tribe hunters to hide in the front, back, left and right places of this captive team, and then stopped and headed straight for the Maotun tribe's nest.
If there are not many soldiers, just be good enough. If there are not many plans, just be easy to use.
For the primitive savages who have almost zero stubbornness and strategy, Xu Chen can take advantage of the whole world with this move.
Even if this move is slowly spread, he still has thirty-six strategies.
The Chinese ancestors did not leave any technological content, but in terms of fighting wits and courage, it can be said that the application has been perfected.
Not only do they fight against the enemy, they also keep fighting against themselves, racking their brains, making their brains, strategizing, and winning thousands of miles.
Although he is a little shameless than a group of primitive people with bare ass.
But he didn't feel guilty at all.
After all, he always felt that he was not the same breed as them, and he was full of noble temperament.
Under the setting sun, the Maotun tribe is peaceful and quiet.
The late hunter was yelling to return with the trophy he had captured.
Women collected from the river beach at the foot of the mountain and the forests on the nearby hillsides, and also wrapped the digging rhizomes with animal bark and leaves.
Near the cave, the laughter of children fighting and chasing and scolding of adults sounded, and occasionally a few crying sounds came.
The tired birds fell one after another in the tall tree nests.
Curling smoke rose from the hillside, spreading in the valley with the cold mountain breeze in dusk.
The day is about to pass, and the gradually dark caves and the river beaches covered with weeds are no different from the past.
However, there are still many people who keep looking deep in the valley, which is the direction to the La tribe.
The most powerful group of hunters in the tribe set out to attack the tribe with very few people yesterday morning. According to time, they should have come back before sunset tonight.
I don’t know how many beasts and people they can bring back when they come back this time, or catch a group of women and children with tender skin, so that they can have a few delicious meals of meat when they raise them.
"Yeshohohoho..."
As a wave of ups and downs came from the valley, the valley that had gradually calmed down suddenly became jubilant again.
"Yew~~"
“%¥@#…”
In front of the cave, the men responded to the shouts of their companions, relaxed and chatted and laughed.
The women were also relieved and began to be busy roasting food by the fire pit, preparing to welcome the warriors who returned from the war.
The children cheered in front of the cave. The uncles and fathers who went out to fight would definitely return with a lot of spoils, and they could get some delicious snacks.
In the valley, a team of savages wearing furs covered with colorful soil, carrying wild beasts of all sizes, appeared on the river beach at the foot of the mountain.
Everything is no different from what you imagine and expect.
The hunters who came back walked across the river beach and went up the mountain. The sky became dimmer and they could not see too far. Standing on the hillside, they were separated by the woods and the smoke and river fog gradually spreading in the evening, they basically couldn't see how many people came back and how many spoils they brought.
Although the team was a bit quiet, it seemed a bit weird compared to the past.
But no one thought much. After all, two consecutive days of travel and war would definitely be tired and hungry, and maybe there would be some casualties. It would be reasonable not to want to talk and communicate.
Therefore, facing this group of hunters in the clan that had fallen into the hands of the enemy, almost all the Maodun clans did not notice the strange phenomenon.
An old woman wrapped in simple animal skin and feathers on her head stood in front of the cave, looking at the road up the mountain, muttering a few words, but no one heard clearly what she was saying.
At this time, a group of prisoners mixed with a group of people from the Gonghuo Clan prisoner legion had slowly approached the cave along the path up the mountain.
And in the woods between the captives and not far behind them, there was a group of hunters wearing leather armor and holding bows and arrows, walking and following the woods like cheetahs.
Finally arrived at the cave, a group of children cheered and rushed up to pull the prey on the captives' shoulders, trying to exhale a few mouthfuls of blood in advance, but as soon as these children approached, they were pinched by a group of captives in the fire tribe inside and clamped them under their arms.
The children struggled and shouted, while the women who were cooking and some men who were slaughtering wild animals and peeling them out of their mouths.
Everyone thought it was these returned men who were joking with the children.
But soon, some people discovered something was wrong.
Because the hunters who came back stopped at the edge of the woods dozens of meters away from the entrance of the cave, and stood strangely without saying anything, and did not put down the beast on their backs.
Some of the more vigilant men who stayed in the cave picked up weapons such as spears and sticks, and prepared to come forward to inquire about the situation.
"Bang~"
A strange sound suddenly came to the woods, but before anyone could understand, a sharp arrow was fired from the dark woods, and shot on the leg of the strongest hunter in the head with a thunderous sound.
"Ao~~"
The hunter fell to the ground with a scream.
"Kill ~"
With a loud roar, a large group of men shrouded in animal skins suddenly rushed out of the woods, holding strange curved wooden sticks in their hands, and pounced on the cave like a tiger and wolf.
“%¥#…”
The situation was clear at a glance. The cave was invaded by foreign tribes. Some hunters of the Maotun tribe yelled and prepared to fight back. What greeted them was a rain of arrows.
"Swoosh swish swish swish swish swish..."
Under the dark light, the arrow shot the fastest-moving hunters to the ground like they had eyes.
In the blink of an eye, he turned to the ground, and the injured person was lying on the ground and rolling in pain, wailing and crying for help.
The group of people who came out did not give Mao Tun people any chance to breathe. They rushed to the entrance of the cave, kicked people when they saw them, and beat people when they were caught. Amid the chaotic shouts and scolding, both men and women were knocked to the ground.
“Woo~~~”
A thick and low horn sounded from the woods behind him.
"We'll go up too!"
The group of prisoners of the Gonghuo tribe who were wearing makeup mixed with the prisoners also smiled grimly, threw away the children in their hands and the beasts they were carrying, and raised their simple spears and rushed towards the men, women, and young and old who were crying and running away.
The group of Maotun captives were not idle either. Knowing the ferocity of the Ba people, they kept shouting loudly that their family members should not fight back and quickly surrendered.
So many men and women quickly lost their sticks and weapons, and couldn't wait to squat and even lay on the ground.
This was another perfect raid, from the beginning to the end, less than ten minutes before and after.
By the time Xu Chen brought Gu He to the woods with a flag and a trumpet, the chaotic battle had ended.
The Maotun tribe cave is very strange. It is like a hornet's nest. It seems that there are traces of manual digging. Just around the cracks formed by natural fragmentation, there are several caves of varying sizes connected together, forming a complex structure.
Nearly 200 people in the entire Maotun clan live together, but they do not seem very crowded.
In the open space in front of the cave, there were a large area of men, women, young and old wearing only simple furs.
There were also a dozen injured lying on the ground, humming or rolling and crying.
