Chapter 589: Deep in the Woods
Quack Quack ······ A voice resembling a crow sounded.
In this seldom inhabited forest, it seems particularly empty and long. Ayisuna led a group of mercenaries to walk around, and all she saw was the towering trees.
In addition, not long after the sun rose, the fog in the forest was still heavy. It makes the whole forest seem primitive and mysterious.
In fact, rushing at this time is not the best move!
But in a hurry, Ayisuna deliberately took them faster.
It is also rumored that there are quite a few tribes living in the Misty Forest. It attracted the mercenaries who could not afford to make a profit early to promise a heavy salute and let the people of Liuhe Village help lead the way.
It's just that the Misty Forest is extremely easy to get lost, and ordinary people don't dare to go deeper. Answer: Isuna, they also followed the sweep when the Khorasan army cleared the surrounding tribes. See the tribe retreat into the misty forest and avoid the pursuit of the Khorasan army.
So I also know that there are tribes living in the forest, and I have a certain certainty of finding them.
In the end, there is not much output in the forest, and there are too many people at once, and it is easy to lack food and clothing. The tribesmen had to sneak out and find other ways to eat.
Some of the villagers of Liuhe Village went into the forest to collect medicine and hunt, and they saw the figure of the tribesmen with their own eyes. A: Isuna is one of them!
As for Zhou Tonglin, it was purely accidental. At that time, many people in the village were suffering from wind cold, and it spread to the disease, causing more people to get sick. The doctor who diagnosed and treated the doctor prescribed medicine, but found that there was a lack of medicine to make medicine.
Later, according to the doctor, the medicine likes to grow in dense forests and places with many dead branches and leaves. And Zhou Tonglin also happened to know this medicine, so he took people to find it.
Since there were few people in the village who were not sick at that time, Orion's daughter, Ayisuna, also followed. During this time, they succeeded in collecting medicine, but they also ran into the tribesmen. But they hid and did not speak, and the tribesmen did not notice them.
Later, they were so busy rushing back to decoct the medicine to the villagers, so they didn't bother to pay attention to the tribesmen in the forest. It wasn't until now that the mercenaries had made things lead the way that they returned to the Misty Forest.
With memories in mind, Ayisuna came to the place where she had last met the tribesmen. There were dead leaves falling to the ground, and nothing could be seen. But some of the mercenaries who entered the forest had retired from the army and had learned some common sense of survival in the wild.
I know that with those clues, you can find the whereabouts of the tribesmen.
And they scattered some distance and looked upon the earth. Answer: Isuna also learned how to find the traces of prey when she was hunting, so it is not surprising. It's just that the mercenaries' actions seem more orderly, which makes her feel a little new.
Of course, the efficiency is also very fast.
In less than a stick of incense, some mercenaries noticed that the leaves on the ground were old and new. This deduces that someone has been there, and according to the direction of the distribution of leaves, the route map of the tribesmen can be found in one fell swoop.
Searching like this, they found another box of empty cans.
"Looks like they've got it right!" , said a mercenary.
A: Yisuna also guessed that it was Zhou Tong who was coming to them, so she followed the mercenaries and hurried forward.
When you go up to a gentle slope, you can see a large number of tribesmen gathering in the forest below. Their houses were not built on the ground, but on tree branches. Like a beehive, it is made of branches, leaves, and bark.
At this time, they were burning a fire, and there were seven or eight people tied to them.
Answer: When they saw it, their expressions tightened.
Because those people were the mercenaries led by Zhou Tonglin.
Looking at the scale of this tribe, there are at least nearly 100 wooden houses, including men, women, and children, and the population is no less than 1,000. In the Kipchak steppe, which is now suffering from extinction, it is considered a large tribe.
And before this, no one would have thought that the tribe in the Misty Forest would be so big. Because according to the previous understanding, the tribe of thousands of people in the Kipchak steppe has long been broken up. A small tribe of only a few hundred people has escaped the net and has taken refuge in the middle of nowhere.
Khorasan did not bother to spend time with them, so he left them to fend for themselves for the time being.
But now that such a large tribe has emerged, it is impossible to capture everyone with only a few of them. Those mercenaries were also both happy and worried!
The good news is that the tribe has enough people to make a lot of money.
The worry is that there are too many people in the tribe, and they can't eat it alone.
Answer: Yisuna cared about Zhou Tonglin, so she was bent on saving people.
But the mercenaries were afraid that Isuna would startle the snake, so they quickly dragged her away from the vicinity of the tribe.
"What are you doing? I'm going to save Brother Zhou! Answersuna was dragged to a relatively safe place by the mercenary, struggling and yelling.
"There are too many of them, how can you save them?" , the captain of the mercenary asked rhetorically.
"Don't you have oil and fire? This group of barbarians will definitely be scared away! Answer: Suna was eager to save people, and asked sternly.
Skyfire is fireworks. Now, with the further development of firearms in Khorasan, the Sky Fire is no longer the exclusive use of the army. This is also the reason why Khorasan dared to sell to Mongolia without any scruples.
The mercenaries bought a certain amount of Sky Fire from the Firearms Division through the Merchants. Although the price is high, it is surprisingly effective on the battlefield. In particular, some tribes who have never seen the heavenly fire will mistakenly think that this is the anger of the gods, and they will not dare to act rashly.
This also allows mercenaries to spend a lot less energy and capture more tribal populations.
The Firearms Division also sold well because of the natural fire, and there was a lot of profit. But compared with Li Chengji's investment in the Firearms Division, it is a drop in the bucket.
In the case of fire oil, it is also a monopoly of the Khorasan government. However, there are two types: civilian and military. For civilian use, it is diluted and does not burn as violently as military oil. Most people use fire oil to make rice.
The mercenaries bought civilian fire oil.
It's not that military oil can't be bought, it's that military oil is too expensive. If you buy more for civilian fire oil, it is also more cost-effective than military fire oil to increase the concentration.
Ayisuna had seen the mercenaries' firearms, and knew that they were carrying these things. So in her eyes, as long as these two things are used well, she has a great chance of rescuing people.
But in that case, the tribe would probably have fled elsewhere because they had been caught by surprise.
This is an extremely uneconomical deal for mercenaries.
Therefore, answering Isuna's questioning does not make the mercenary's captain agree to save people. Only let the other mercenaries go back and report the news, so that they can invite the other mercenaries to come and destroy the tribe. At the same time, send people to keep an eye on the movements of this tribe, so as to prepare in advance.
As for Ayisuna, she was directly tied up by them. Someone tried to plot against Yisuna, but was stopped by the captain.
After all, once the incident happened, everyone couldn't eat and walked around.
