Chapter 41
Although it is not certain whether the Far Northern Tribes will attack, everyone is still in the midst of intense preparations, and it is always right to be prepared, because with the addition of Lie and others, the Tiger Clan's originally insufficient manpower can finally be distributed.
On the sentry tower, the father of the orc Weishan patrols the entire tribe at all times, all the orcs are always vigilant, and everyone in the tribe is busy. The Tong brothers took enough food and began to patrol around the tribe, they needed to go a little farther to investigate the situation, and Tong Bo rushed to the Leopard Clan to inform the Leopard Clan, after all, the two tribes are close, the Leopard Clan is now a large tribe of more than 200 people, if they can get the help of the Leopard Clan, they will be able to survive the crisis.
The walls of the tribe have not stopped since the beginning of construction, as long as there is time on weekdays, the tribe will build, now as long as it is strengthened and thickened, fortunately, a large number of stones are stored in the tribe, and the sub-beasts only need to use tools to cut the stone into a regular shape, and build it with yellow mud, and the wall is also very strong, enough to resist the general beasts. And this kind of body lì work, Gu Xi is almost useless, he has to go to help the flower, the next day is estimated to be unable to lift his arm, the gap between the body lì is really incomparable, Gu Xi decided to do what he can.
Gu Xi thought, although he hadn't experienced much war, and he didn't know how orcs fought, he always knew some common sense knowledge, and it was good to be able to use some small skills to help.
Huo Bai has said that if the two sides collide hard, the tiger clan will definitely suffer, and the strength is very different, Gu Xi thought, the best way is to defend as an attack, the most direct way for the orcs to fight in the past is to rush forward, whether it is an orc or a sub-beast when facing danger, they will ignore a qiē battle, even if there is only the last breath left. If you add some twists and turns, it will definitely be very useful. Traps, fences...... No one in the other world knew about this, and when the Far North attacked, they certainly didn't expect the Tiger Clan to wait inside the walls.
Gu Xi's mind flashed, yes, there are several platforms built in the tribal wall that can stand people, so that when there is an attack, the sub-beasts can guard the wall, and if they are equipped with bows and arrows, they may be able to help a lot.
At present, the weapons of the sub-beasts are still on the bone knives and the primitive animal fangs, so that they are directly involved in the battle, and the hand-to-hand combat is always a loss for the sub-beasts, if they can be replaced with bows and arrows, long-range attacks can greatly reduce the damage of sub-beasts, and the bow and arrow are weapons in ancient times, and it is not so complicated to make them, Gu Xi simply went to get the materials, the bamboo is ready-made, the bowstring can be used with animal tendons, and the back of the white-haired beast has a fairly strong tendon, which is usually picked out when dealing with long-haired beasts, and the length of the tendons is also just right. After the materials were prepared, Gu Xi immediately started to make it, and he didn't look at the bow and arrow carefully, so he could only make a rough bow and arrow according to the impression of it.
So the first bow was born, small holes were opened at both ends of the bamboo strips, the white-haired beast tendons passed through the holes and tied a knot and fixed them, the bamboo strips were polished very smooth, the bowstring was tightened, and the strength was just what Gu Xi could pull apart.
And the bow and arrow are made of the fangs of the fanged pig, just like the harpoon that Gu Xi made for himself before, after all, he is facing an orc, and only something as sharp as a fanged pig can work.
Gu Xi used a round wooden block to hang on a tree in the distance as an arrow target, drew a few circles with carbon in the middle, found a suitable distance, Gu Xi stood up, drew his bow, and stared at the target in the distance.
With a whoosh, the arrow flew out and went straight into the arrow target, Gu Xi's eyesight has always been very good, he still likes darts in modern times, and he can often hit red hearts, and now that he has changed the bow and arrow, the bow and arrow he made this time is not heavy, it is exactly the weight he can bear, so the level is not too bad, at least he can hit.
Looking at the arrow nailed to the target, Gu Xi's heart was excited, it was really □□ Yi before, he didn't have any sense of danger at all, he should have thought of it earlier, and now he doesn't know if it's too late. By the way, if you quench some more medicine on the arrows! The effect must be doubled, see An Hua later, see if he has such a drug, even if it can confuse the vision, oh yes, it's best for each sub-beast to bring condiments, and chili powder can also be used to attack! Although it's not very decent, I can't take care of it this time, and in the face of such a vicious enemy, what kind of decency can I talk about. Gu Xi was a little excited when he thought about it.
Huo Bai happened to come from the side of the wall, in just two days, they had strengthened and heightened the wall, and also listened to Gu Xi's construction, and dug a lot of traps around the Tiger tribe, just digging a soil pit, an orc can dig it quickly, every time a location is determined, they will first confirm that there is no strange orc breath around, and then start digging traps, leaving only the marks that the Tiger people can recognize, and insert sharp bamboo in the trap, covered with large leaves, and then cover it with soil, and do it no different from the surrounding environment, At least it can cause a lot of trouble for the Far Northern Tribe.
Huo Bai looked at Gu Xi holding a curved bamboo, and the thing that shot out was deep □□ the wood, and his eyes lit up, this is a good thing.
"Huo Bai, you came just in time, this is what I just made, it's called a bow and arrow, the tribe's sub-beast can be equipped with one for each person, and you can shoot from afar when you encounter danger!" Gu Xi said, "When everyone comes back for dinner, I'll tell everyone!" ”
Huo Bai took the bow and arrow in Gu Xi's hand, it was really surprising that this small thing could burst out with such great power.
So, at noon, everyone gathered in the square to eat collectively, except for the barbecue, it was directly bone broth, which no one had the heart to make a meal, just to be full, hurry to work, and dare not waste time.
Gu Xi told the people about the bow and arrow, and the clansmen responded, and then used the lunch time to make it themselves according to Gu Xi's method, they were obviously much faster than Gu Xi, whether it was the polishing of the bamboo or the pulling of the bowstring, it was extremely fast, the tribe has been eating fanged pigs, and the number of fangs left behind is considerable, and the number of bows and arrows is also quite a lot, and a lot of them are made soon, and many people have picked them up and tried them.
Looking at the bow and arrow in each hand, Gu Xi bent the corners of his mouth, the people of the Tiger Clan are always so good. Look at the arrows that shoot at the center of the target one by one, the talent is really incomparable, and I thought that I could surpass in archery, but I became the bottom of the tribe again.
Especially Tang Ning, every time he hits the center, if such a person is in modern times, he is a child of someone else's family, who grows up well, has a smart head, and has strong ability! It's hard not to be jealous.
As if seeing the slight envy in Gu Xi's eyes, Huo Bai smiled and hugged Gu Xi's shoulder, no matter how good others are, they can't compare to his Gu Xi.
Gu Xi immediately looked for An Hua again, and asked for snake venom from An Hua, the snake venom of the colorful snake is very toxic, and it is transmitted by blood, and there are many colorful snakes on the hills behind the tribe, and the tribe collection team has encountered a few times when collecting, although no one was injured, but it has also aroused everyone's vigilance.
Now what Gu Xi has to do is to dilute the snake venom with water, put the arrows in it and soak it, the snake venom is not easy to pick, and diluting it too much will also reduce the effect of the snake venom, Gu Xi only chose ten arrows, completely soaked in water, and the colorful snake venom will not die, and it will also produce symptoms of dizziness and convulsions, no matter what the method, Gu Xi has to give it a try, one more way, is a little more chance of winning.
The vigilance of the Tiger Clan is useful, just four days have passed, the Tong brothers who went to patrol the periphery rushed back, they really found the traces of the extreme northern tribe, they came this time there are forty orcs, the leader is really Ao, their direction, there is no doubt that it is the Tiger Clan, Gu Xi did not guess wrong, they really fought the idea of the Tiger Clan! Tong Xiu Tong Qi didn't dare to slack off, and came back to tell everyone the news without stopping.
The Tiger Clan can have the preparation of these days, thanks to the leader of the Far Northern Tribe, Ao, suspicious character, although the tribe he led are all beasts who have not been eliminated, the battle is powerful and direct, but he is not, this can be seen from his inconspicuous orcs in the tribe, to the bribing of the hearts of the tribe, Lalie stepped down and expelled from the tribe, he did not rush to rob the Tiger tribe, but sent people to explore the Tiger tribe many times, knowing that the Tiger tribe has begun to guard against them, because he does not dare to act rashly, if he wants to succeed, he must be patient enough, He's been doing a good job of that.
According to Lie's knowledge, Huo Bai originally thought that Ao would bring at least fifty orcs, after all, although the conditions in the extreme northern tribe were harsh, the birth rate was very high, and the number of clansmen was quite large, there were hundreds of people, twice as many as the Tiger Clan. But Huo Bai knew that although there were only about forty people, they came with the purpose of occupying the tribe, so the orcs who could be brought must all be powerful, their bestiality had not been eliminated, and if they really fought, they would definitely be extremely ferocious.
And the Tiger Clan, plus the seven people brought by Lie, are not even thirty. They also have cubs, old people, and the shape shì is still grim.
Huo Bai Beast stood on the sentry platform, his white hair glittering in the sun, his eyes were firmly fixed on the distance, all the orcs in the tribe had been transformed, and the sub-beasts carried bamboo baskets, which were full of bows and arrows, bone knives or other weapons at their waists, and small bags with them.
Uncle Jiang and Yan Yan's mother, who has never been in good health, took the little orc and the little sub-beast into the mountain forest behind, where there was a hidden cave, in order to let the family members fighting in front have no worries, they had to hide well and protect their own safety.
They have faced many battles, they have suffered many sacrifices, but in the end they have all won, and they believe that this time will not be an exception, and they will never back down!
