Whew!

The sound of the beast spread far away, and it was almost unaudible to the dragon tribe's settlement.

The dragon tribe has two walls, one is a brick wall to protect the residence, and the other is a net wall to protect the planting area, with this net wall, most of the beasts will be blocked outside, the distance between the two walls is more than 400 zhang, and there are trees in the middle, even if there are wild beasts roaring outside the net wall, it is very difficult for the sound to spread.

Halfway through the winter, when food is scarce, wild animals become more active, looking for food everywhere, and even attacking other predators for food.

Look, on the north side of the net wall, a group of jackals and a tiger are fighting over food.

The jackal is a canine, similar in appearance to wolves, dogs, etc., smaller than wolves but larger than red foxes, four to five feet long, about two feet high at the shoulders, adult jackals weigh about fifty pounds, and large jackals can reach eighty pounds.

Jackals can be said to be the strongest canine, but also the most ferocious and flexible canine, although the size is smaller than the wolf, but the combat power is higher than the wolf, the jackal that lives in groups will not be afraid of any carnivore, even the king of the jungle dares to fight and try.

Interestingly, when the jackals are in groups, they will tease and attack the wolves, bears, leopards and other beasts, scaring them into running away or climbing the trees, so as to seize the food in their mouths, if these beasts do not give up the food, a fierce battle is inevitable, and in the end most of the jackals win, when fighting alone, the jackals may not be their opponents, but a group of jackals in the collective action, the ability to echo and cooperate with each other is higher.

Jackals rarely fight with tigers, but this time, because of food, a group of dozens of jackals and a tiger fought together, at first the tiger bit several jackals to death, bites, but the tiger also has several more wounds, blood continues to ooze.

With the passage of time, the tiger's physical strength is declining, and the damage on the body is increasing, the tiger already has the intention of breaking through, and if it does not break through, it will be beaten to death by the jackals, but the jackals will not let it go so easily, and constantly try to attack the tiger.

Seeing that the tiger was about to be beaten to death by the jackals, suddenly, dozens of short spears flew in.

Several short spears were inserted into the tiger's body, and more short spears were inserted into the body of the jackals, and after one wave of short spears ended, the next wave of short spears followed, and the lucky jackals who were not injured wanted to escape, but all fell into the snow in the continuous "arrow rain", and the blood flowing from the body dyed the snow under them red.

After a few breaths, a human with a rattan shield and a short spear walked out, and more humans with weapons came out.

"You guys are really hateful, what beasts can survive these waves of short spears?" Biao shouted in a loud voice.

Su Yan, who was walking next to Biao, shook his head speechlessly, fortunately, there was an animal skin hat to cover his ears, otherwise he really couldn't stand Biao's loud voice.

It turned out that the dragon tribe hunting party went out hunting.

Today is another good weather, after breakfast, Su Yan saw that the clansmen were bored, so he discussed with several patriarchs to organize the clansmen's outings, which naturally refers to hunting.

In the past, there was no net wall outside the dragon tribe's residence, and the beasts could run directly outside the brick wall, and the tribesmen could hear the roars of all kinds of beasts all day long.

When they are idle and bored, the clansmen will come to the brick wall with their weapons, if they see the beasts throwing short spears directly over, on the one hand, they can practice their throwing skills, on the other hand, they can also get some fresh meat, over time, the beasts that dare to approach the brick wall are less and less, but there are still a large number of wild beasts not far away.

But when the net wall appeared, it was difficult for the beasts to come outside the brick walls, and it was very difficult for the tribesmen to hear the roars of the beasts, let alone hunt them to pass the free time.

After Su Yan launched the winter hunting operation, adult male clansmen enthusiastically participated, even if the clansmen who didn't want to go in their hearts could only sign up after seeing other clansmen go.

But you can't all the tribesmen go, there have to be someone to stay in the tribe, the net wall can block most of the beasts but not the humans, and finally Yu Zhi took more than 120 adult male tribesmen to stay in the tribe, and the next time he went out hunting, he would change to another group of people to stay.

Leaving more than 120 people, the remaining 250 people formed a large team and walked towards the north of the dragon tribe's cultivation area, and the first prey was a fighting tiger and a group of jackals.

After a few waves of short spears, both the tiger and the jackal died, and even if a jackal was lucky enough not to die and wanted to escape, it would be caught up by a few short spears after a few breaths.

For this way of fighting, Biao is very irritable, Biao likes melee combat, and does not like to throw short spears from a distance to play.

Su Yan didn't take care of Biao, going out hunting today was to let the clansmen move their bodies, by the way to get a batch of fresh meat, just throw a short spear from a distance, try to minimize hand-to-hand combat, hand-to-hand combat is easy to cause casualties, and things that should be avoided should be avoided.

Bring the carcasses of both tigers and jackals, and the hunt continues.

With the increase in the production of blister copper, the dragon tribe has used weapons cast from blister copper, the copper spear is the most, just a spear tip, not much coarse copper is used, and all adult male clansmen have changed to copper spears.

In addition, there are bronze swords and bronze knives, which are made of coarse copper as a whole, and only the upper and middle levels of the dragon tribe can use it, and there are also outstanding clansmen who have been rewarded by Su Yan.

The hunting team is still too big, a total of more than 250 people, every time they encounter the prey, the people in front directly solve the prey, and the people behind have no chance to shoot at all, Su Yan divided the hunting team into two teams, Su Yan, Biao, Yang led a team, Yuan, Shen, Song led a team, each team of more than 120 people.

The two teams split up, with one team having fewer people and more people being able to participate in the hunt.

I have to say that primitive talents are jungle overlords, especially the dragon tribe, a hunting team of more than a hundred people, not to mention encountering tigers, even if you encounter wolves and jackals, you are not afraid, only when the number of wolves and jackals exceeds fifty, you should be careful.

When encountering prey, if a short spear can't kill the prey, then have a few more short spears, and try to avoid melee combat if you can avoid close combat, Biao can't get the opportunity to fight in close combat, so you can only grab more than ten short spears from the clansmen and participate in the activities of shooting prey with short spears.

Most of the day passed, and the two hunting teams returned with one prey after another according to the previous agreement, and on the way back, Su Yan looked at the vine shield in the hands of the clansmen and thought of something.

Since you have already cast copper spears, copper swords, and copper knives from coarse copper, should you cast a copper shield, and you can also add sharp thorns to the copper shield, which can also cause damage to enemies or beasts when the copper shield is defending against enemy or beast attacks.

Well, that's a great idea.
