Chapter 52: Reflections on the Post-War Period

The battle was not over yet, and the ten people hidden in the woods in the west faintly heard the screams coming from the front, thinking that their own people had launched an attack, and after discussing it, several people decided to participate in the attack as well, and ran out of the woods one after another, running towards the residence of the snake tribe.

"There are enemies, and there are enemies here, ten people." (Simple counting of snake tribes has been learned)

Big Mouth, who had been on guard at the west wall, and the four others spotted the ten enemies who had rushed out of the woods, and immediately issued a warning and called for reinforcements.

Ten enemies were not many, so Zhi immediately sent fifteen men to the western wall, and some minors also followed to help pass the spears and stones.

Ten enemies were getting closer and closer to the brick wall to the west, and the next moment the number of people on the brick wall increased from four to nineteen, and nineteen short spears and stones flew out of their hands and smashed into the approaching enemy.

Primitive people have good eyesight, and they can see something smashing at a glance, plus so many suddenly appear on the brick wall, even people with developed limbs and simple minds like Dali know the danger.

The ten enemies immediately turned and fled, but the spears and stones were faster, and four of the ten enemies were hit by the spears and stones, two lightly wounded and two severely wounded.

Two lightly wounded enemies and six uninjured enemies fled desperately, and two seriously wounded enemies fell to the ground and slowly waited for death to come.

The attack didn't end there, a wave of short spears and stones was thrown, and a second wave flew out of the hands of the snake tribesmen on the western brick wall and smashed into the fleeing enemy.

This time two more enemies were hit, one was the one who had been slightly wounded before, this time he was directly knocked down by a stone, and I don't know how many bones were shattered in his body, and the other enemy was shot in the thigh by a short spear, and then a short spear was inserted into the back, and he was unable to get up from the ground again.

Soon, a third wave of short spears and stones descended, this time the enemy ran a little far, and only one enemy who ran at the end was hit by several short spears and fell to the ground with serious injuries.

Of the ten enemies who rushed at us, only five escaped, and one of them was slightly wounded.

The results of the battle on the eastern brick wall could not be counted, and nearly twenty people lay on the blood-soaked snow, some of them dead, some still lingering.

Chi didn't let his people go out to finish up, and Chi couldn't be sure if there was an enemy ambush outside, which was enough.

Enemies lying in the snow outside are wounded, if not dead, and unable to move quickly, and the smell of blood will attract the beasts, who will eventually become food for the beasts' mouths.

Zhi led his tribesmen to guard behind the brick wall for a while, and when he saw a few wild beasts coming, he let the tribesmen go back to rest, leaving only four clansmen behind each brick wall to guard.

It's a perfect battle, relying on brick walls, short spears, and stones, the snake tribe easily crushes the enemy, allowing only a small number of enemies to escape, and the rest of the enemies will eventually be eaten by the beast, whether they live or die.

Su Yan was also relieved after learning what had happened from Zhikou, for the current snake tribe, the most dangerous thing is not the beast, but the same kind.

Thanks to the brick walls on three sides of the Snake Tribe's residence, the tall brick walls blocked the enemy's advance, and the Snake Tribe was able to crush the enemy from a high position.

Think about it, what kind of scene would it be if there was no brick wall to block the enemy, even if the snake tribe can repel the enemy, the snake tribe itself will have many casualties, so that the snake tribe's own strength will be greatly damaged, and maybe it will be destroyed by the enemy when it encounters the next enemy.

Although the enemy was defeated this time, the snake tribe still can't relax its vigilance, not only to have people on the brick wall during the day, but also to send people to guard at night, maybe next time there will be an enemy attacking the snake tribe in the dark, but this is unlikely.

In addition to being more dangerous at night, there is also the reason for eyesight, after all, in addition to the autumn and winter can eat some fruits, it is difficult for primitive people to eat fruits and vegetables in the rest of the time, and their eyesight at night is very poor, and their combat effectiveness is greatly reduced compared to that during the day.

This time, the enemy attacked the snake tribe and Su Yan had a lot of thoughts, such as why did the enemy attack the snake tribe? Where are these enemies? Did they wipe out the primitive tribes that lived around the Serpent tribe? ……

In the autumn, Su Yan was still thinking about making the Snake Tribe form an alliance with other tribes through a powerful foreign enemy, and the Snake Tribe would gain the dominance of the alliance, and it was best to move the other tribes to live on the side of the Snake Tribe's residence, and then the Snake Tribe slowly integrated the other tribes into itself, and finally the total population of the Snake Tribe increased rapidly.

Now that such an enemy has really appeared, it is still an unknown enemy, and Su Yan doesn't know whether the current situation is good or bad.

Maybe this unknown enemy is a very powerful tribe, stronger than the four tribes of the snake tribe, the deer tribe, the mountain tribe, and the rabbit tribe combined, the dozens of people who appeared this time are just a little bit of the enemy's strength, and they have not eliminated all the enemies, will the fleeing enemy go back and transfer more people to attack the snake tribe?

The Snake Tribe has less than sixty adults who can fight, half male and female, and if the enemy comes with a hundred adults at once, it is estimated that the probability that the Snake Tribe will be able to withstand the enemy's attack is only fifty percent or even lower.

It would be good if it could be combined with the three tribes of the Deer Tribe, the Mountain Tribe, and the Rabbit Tribe, even if the strength of these three tribes was much weaker than that of the Deer Tribe, but the four tribes would unite and double the strength of the Snake Tribe.

The key is that it is a cold winter now, the land is covered with ice and snow, the snake tribe wants to send people to contact the deer tribe, the mountain tribe, and the rabbit tribe are more troublesome, and there are fewer people sent to contact may encounter danger, and if there are more people sent to contact, there will be fewer people left behind by the snake tribe, and if there is another enemy attack, the snake tribe will be dangerous.

Now I can only pray that the strength of the enemy who attacked the snake tribe is not strong to a certain point, and the losses brought by the snake tribe to the enemy this time have also greatly reduced the strength of this enemy, so that the snake tribe does not need to worry about this enemy, even if this enemy sends people to attack again, the snake tribe can defeat the other party.

It's just that in the future, the hunting team of the snake tribe should be careful when they go out hunting, if they accidentally encounter the hunting team of this hostile tribe, there is no brick wall to cover it, and the hunting team of the snake tribe can only escape.

At night, the three big men of the snake tribe, Su Yan, Wu, and Zhi, did not sleep, they were all worried about the situation of the snake tribe, they were the leaders of the snake tribe, they needed to think about the future of the snake tribe, if even they could put their minds at ease after facing such a thing, then the snake tribe would have no future.
