Chapter 426: Expedition and Beacon Tower

Three days later, at noon, in the reckless mountains and forests outside the Gray Rabbit Tribe.

The thousand-strong elite team led by Song Yong, after lining up a long queue, was laboriously advancing along the path opened up by the exploration team in the past.

The reason why they are moving forward is so hard.

First of all, it is because of the amazing resilience of such primeval forests.

After only a few months, the forest path that had been carved out by the barren people was almost overgrown with shrubs and weeds again.

Only by having people brand their machetes again can they sort out a path in it that the army can pass through.

Moreover, this trip of an army of 1,000 people is not a small scene of dozens of people dispatched last time, and the original road of accommodating two people to advance side by side is a bit inapplicable.

In Song Yong's calculations, it was necessary to at least expand the area of the road to more than double the width.

At least four or five people can be accommodated at the same time, and they can advance side by side at the same time, so that the team he leads will not be pulled out of the ugly formation of a long snake.

In order to open up a forest road, there are constantly more than four indigenous strong men, who have been busy at the front of the team.

They swung their shifts and wielded sharp machetes in an attempt to cut a new path at the front of the line.

In this way, the speed of the army's advance was helplessly slowed down.

Secondly, in order to deal with the possible situation of the army after arriving at the grassland under the snowy mountain, everyone in the team carried as much supplies as possible.

In addition to the necessary weapons and armor.

They even brought a lot of dried meat, which is durable and easy to eat.

After all, after arriving at the grassland, they must seize the time and use all the manpower to establish an outpost that is convenient for defense as soon as possible.

In such a situation, there is still a surplus of manpower to hunt and gather around?

Even every native hunter in the army brought an extra piece or more of an animal skin, intending to keep himself warm when the time came.

Regarding this point, Song Yong, who had foreseen that the winter there would be even colder, emphasized it at the meeting held by Chibai.

In short, except for Song Yong, the supreme commander.

All the rest of the people counted one by one, and they all carried a large rattan basket behind them, and the rattan basket was full of things......

"Brother Yong, what do you think of the location here?" the spear pointed to a glade with an area of three or four acres, and asked Song Yong like this.

Even in the mouth of the spear, the words that came out were a bit incompatible.

But Song Yong still heard the spear, and what he wanted to express was the specific meaning: "How about building a beacon tower in this location?"

After hearing this, Song Yong didn't answer immediately.

Instead, he climbed a tree on the edge of a clearing and climbed until it was high on the trunk before stopping.

Then, he took out a small compass from his pocket and determined the direction of the Gray Rabbit Tribe, and then picked up a brand new telescope hanging from his neck and looked around.

This time from the modern plane, Song Yong bought a lot of good things like black technology.

For example, the telescope he was holding in his hand at the moment was no longer the one he bought from a two-dollar store, which was equivalent to a children's toy.

It is a treasure of more than 200 yuan, and the store is known as the military product of the authentic Mao Zi family.

Song Yong brought over as many as thirty of these things in one go.

To tell the truth, more than 200 yuan of Maozi's family is genuine, Song Yong can't believe that there can be such a good thing, and this kind of big bargain will fall on his head.

But it doesn't matter so much, as long as it's easy to use!

Anyway, now that Song Yong has used a new telescope, he finds that the observation distance and clarity have improved too much at once.

Besides, Song Yong bought so many binoculars in one go, and the store also gave a lot of things.

For example, dozens of multi-functional sabers, a metal compass, magnesium rods for ignition, and so on.

When these things are put in the modern plane, it is estimated that most people will hold them in their hands, and they may not be useful for a lifetime, but if they fall into the hands of primitive people and natives, they may be able to save a human life at some point.

Song Yong brought so many telescopes over, and he also thought about it carefully.

The main purpose is naturally to prepare for his subordinates to find the base camp where those wild people live in the vast snowy mountains.

In addition to the telescope, he bought four small drones, as well as solar panels to charge them.

As for drones, although they are only some bargains with a price of about 3,000 yuan, Song Yong found that they are still very easy to use after buying them.

After he taught his hunters how to use these drones.

Maybe it's really possible, without alarming the savage tribe, to discover their tribe's habitat in advance and find out more information.

Climbing on the tree, Song Yong looked around the situation and said to the spear:

"Yes, this place is quite suitable for building a beacon tower. ”

Tell you the truth, this kid is looking for a really good place, and it fits perfectly with the location where the first beacon tower was built.

Beyond the right side of the clearing, there is a stone wall that constantly oozes spring water, which provides the necessary water for the garrison to live.

There are also a lot of prey around, there are no traces of fierce beasts, and the food source is also good.

The most important thing is that the distance from the Gray Rabbit Tribe is good, according to the straight-line distance between the two, this is only about fifty miles away from the location of the Gray Rabbit Tribe.

As long as a beacon tower is built here, when the defenders light the billowing smoke here, it can be clearly seen by the remaining personnel of the tribe.

Then, according to the smoke identification method agreed by both parties long ago, some simple information can be clearly conveyed.

For example: peace, enemy attack, 100,000 urgent, etc., according to these transmitted information, the left-behind personnel can also make support, retreat and other actions.

After expressing his opinion on the spear, Song Yong was about to climb down the tree.

It was at this time that he discovered that the wrist-thick thing in his hand just now was not a tree trunk at all, but a highly venomous green thin snake.

At this moment, he was happily spitting out the letter, hesitating whether to pounce on him.

As for why, by now, this poisonous snake had not bitten him, or had wrapped Song Yong around, Song Yong felt that the beast tooth necklace around his neck had played a certain role.

Even if he hadn't been bitten yet, but suddenly seeing such a situation, Song Yong was instinctively scared enough.

Without even thinking about it, it was a spell that was unleashed, and then I didn't know what effect it had hit, and the snake fell to the ground stiffly.

Soon, the spears and others below cheered:

"Brother Yong, we have something good to eat at night......

In this way, Song Yong led a team of 1,000 men through the jungle at a relatively slow pace, and every forty or fifty miles, he would find a place to build a beacon tower.

Because of the strength of the large number of people, such an earthen platform with a wooden house will not take long at all.

And in each beacon tower, Song Yong would select ten hunters who belonged to the same tribe from among the thousands of people under his command and stationed them here.

Undoubtedly, compared to the personnel stationed at the outpost, these defenders stationed at the beacon tower were safer.

Therefore, Song Yong gave priority to the four younger tribes of Cangyan, Green Dragon, Chong'er, and Songta, and occupied these safer jobs.

No one has the slightest opinion on the approach of the gray rabbit and the formation of a complex coalition.
