The hunt lasted for an afternoon, and when the sun went down, there were hardly any living animals in sight, and the wild beasts were frightened by the frenzied slaughter and fled, and the human hunt was of no species, no matter size, as long as it was enough to eat, it was too late to escape, and finally became a trophy piled up on the bank of the river.

There are all kinds of prey, birds, reptiles, mammals, and even people have found some of the prey that are very special, these prey have a small pocket on their abdomen, and when the slaughterer is ready to dispose of these corpses, occasionally one or two cubs will be found from these small pockets, this strange animal, no one has ever seen it, and I can't help but be amazed for a while.

Although the prey seems to be abundant, there are no particularly large animals, and if you hunt a prey the size of a few ceratosaurus, the problem of food shortage can be solved immediately.

These small animals are very troublesome to deal with, especially those ostrich-like prey, with thick feathers, which can't be scalded off with boiling water like in the Xia Kingdom, so in order to save time, they can only take the way of dialing the skin.

Each of the sailors had a dagger, and when they saw that the man in charge of cleaning the prey was too slow, the sailors who could not bear it could do it themselves, and began to prepare the ingredients for the evening one by one.

The increase in the number of people has greatly accelerated the progress of the work many times, and the bloody corpses are piled up together so randomly, which looks very shocking.

The strong smell of blood made the most ferocious beasts dare not approach, such a tragic scene is not at all ordinary beasts can deal with, human beings have just set foot on this land, and they have become the natural enemies of all animals.

In the evening, the sailors ate and drank on the banks of the river without any scruples, and for the first time after such a long time, they had eaten decent food.

Sorghum porridge with pickles, a small glass of white wine, on the great plain at night, enjoy the early autumn breeze, extremely comfortable.

At night, the Milky Way stretches out from the mountains on the island, across the sky, mountains, plains, the Milky Way, and the fires, all of which show the magnificence of the earth.

Happy sailor's door, singing and dancing around the fire.

The next day, the sailors carried the remaining food onto the ship and continued upstream.

This great plain is indeed extremely vast, although it is going against the current, but the speed of the ships is not slow driven by the wind, and even when it is noon, the expedition ship has not yet left this great plain.

"Captain, there doesn't seem to be any wisdom and civilization in this place! It should be the Borderlands that His Majesty said. Zhao Tong said.

"Let's take a look at it again, if such a treasure land is ownerless, it is the best, if there is a civilization other than human beings, if possible, we will kill them, if there are human beings who are hostile to us, then they are also our enemies, when it is time to kill, we must not be soft, such a place, it must be the territory of our Xia country, we will set up a monument at the foot of the mountain, and announce to the world that this place already belongs to the Xia country." The captain said in a deep voice.

Zhao Tong nodded and said, "What the captain said is that even if this place is not ownerless, we must make it ownerless." ”

After the two finished speaking, they laughed tacitly.

In the distance, on the high mountains, a group of people painted with unknown dyes kept pointing at the boats moving in the river.

Unaware that they had been targeted, the expedition was rushing there to assert its sovereignty.

After sailing upriver for most of the day, a huge lake appeared in front of the fleet, and this lake was very vast.

In addition, the nearby species are also extremely rich, and a large number of waterfowl inhabit here, and these brightly colored birds are very pleasing to the eye.

"The river seems to have flowed down from the high mountains of Nado, and its source should be over there." The captain said, pointing to the mountains ahead.

Zhao Tong raised his binoculars and looked over there, and sure enough, he saw a winding river rushing down the steep hillside, and the waterfall at the cliff looked extremely spectacular.

Putting down the binoculars, Zhao Tong said: "It seems that we will be able to get here soon, this river has helped us a lot, and this time we can almost map the general topography of this island." ”

The captain nodded and said: "After we finish erecting the stone monument over there, we will return the same way, after all, this is just an island, it is not of much value, just take a general look, the continent to the east is our main target of exploration." ”

"It's unbelievable that the imperial court would know about the situation here." Zhao Tong was amazed.

"I think this map was drawn by His Majesty." The captain said in a deep voice.

"The people are rumored that His Majesty is the god who came down from the sky in those myths and legends, what do you think of this matter?" Zhao Tong asked.

"Maybe it's true, otherwise how would Your Majesty know about things so far away, even if it wasn't for the gods descending to earth, I guess I was guided by the gods."

Zhao Tong nodded, unfolded the map in front of him and looked at it carefully, feeling more and more mysterious in his heart, the emperor of the Xia Kingdom was extremely mysterious, and the sense of awe in his heart was even stronger.

After crossing the lake, the fleet did not rush to the road, and after resting for the night, they arrived near the foot of the mountain the next morning, but the current was strong and the river was so narrow that the boats could not go along.

In desperation, a hundred sailors could only be sent to walk there from the shore with weapons.

The sailors didn't have to worry about anything, they talked and laughed with each other and walked towards the bottom of the mountain, not thinking that anything could threaten them on this deserted island.

Walking to the foot of the mountain, some craftsmen start to select the right stone to use to make the stele.

Hammers and chisels pry a flat rock off an exposed cliff.

The clanging sound was heard far away, and the contents of the stele were fixed, the same as those on Saltpeter Island.

The process of carving the stele was very tedious, and the progress was not fast, and the bored sailors could only walk to the river with their spears and poke the fish in the water indiscriminately, but their spearing skills were obviously not very good.

At this moment, things suddenly changed, and I saw a group of hideous-looking savages dressed in animal skins suddenly rushing down from the hillside, waving the weapons in their hands, and rushing down the mountain in a disorderly manner.

The faces of the sailors changed dramatically.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”

The sentry yelled in panic.

The sailors didn't care about the stele anymore, and hurriedly ran in the direction of the fleet, the number of enemies was so large that they didn't know how many there were.

"Whoosh!"

Wooden spears roared towards the fleeing sailors, but due to the distance, there were no casualties.

The people who stayed on the ship were also stunned by this sudden turn of events.

"Where did these people come from?" The captain exclaimed.

"I think they've already discovered us, these people are very unfriendly, the captain ordered a counterattack!" Zhao Tong said.

The captain nodded, and hurriedly gave the order to go down and prepare the camp.

"Knock knock!"

The dull sound of drums and trumpets sounded, the sailors gathered quickly, and the sound of armor rattled.

Sailors in armor simply could not run fast under the pursuit of the enemy, the enemy was getting closer and closer, and they would definitely be caught up before returning to the ship.

There are veterans in the team who are born in the military, and they know that running like this is definitely not a way, but it is better to fight the enemy while they still have physical strength, and maybe they can turn the situation around.

"Don't run, you can't run away, hurry up and line up, they are all savages, we are afraid of a fart."

The veteran's afterlife made the frightened sailors react.

He Tie cursed himself in his heart, stopped his escape, raised his spear and turned to face the enemy.

There were more and more people who stopped, and these regularly trained sailors assembled very quickly, and although the array was a little chaotic, compared to the group of savages, this was the difference between the regular army and the rabble.

These wild people were also very surprised, these strange people actually stopped running, and it seemed that they were preparing to fight with the warriors on their side.

"Whew! Oh! Oh! ”

The wildlings screamed and rushed over.

The archers stepped forward from the ranks, got down on one knee and began to shoot at the enemy.

Although there are not many archers, metal weapons are undoubtedly extremely lethal to a wild man with only a piece of animal skin to cover his body.

Under the powerful force, as long as they are shot and howl directly, they fall down in response, even if they are not killed immediately, they have the ability to continue fighting, if they are not effectively treated, this level of wound is death for them.

The archers' attack startled the wildlings, but they were only briefly frightened, and the next moment, like enraged beasts, the wildlings howled and attacked again.

"Damn, aren't these people crazy?" He Tie scolded secretly, as a spearman, at the forefront, facing the black pressure on a group of enemies rushing over, the pressure in his heart can be imagined.

The captain was relieved to see that the people on the shore had begun to line up to meet the enemy, although there were only a hundred people below, as long as the formation was not chaotic, there was no problem in dealing with this group of savages.

"Hurry up! Hurry up! Zhao Tong, who was wearing armor, urged loudly.

The sound of the collision of the armor leaves rattled, and the ordinary silver torrent of soldiers generally disembarked from the warship and lined up as fast as they could.

The sword and shield men cover the archers in front of the phalanx of spearmen.

"Forward!"

"Pass! Open! Open! ”

The sound of neat footsteps seemed to tremble as if the earth was trembling, and the steel torrent of Xia Kingdom slowly advanced forward.

A large number of savages surrounded the hundred-strong procession, shouting at the sailors.

He Tie could even smell the bad breath spewing out of the mouth of the person opposite, at this dangerous juncture, he was inexplicably worried in his heart that when this guy roared, the spittle Xingzi would spray over, and he suddenly felt a chill when he imagined the picture, and subconsciously closed his mouth.

The savages could not break through the hedgehog-like spear formation, and before the wooden spear could be thrown, the archer shot at him, killing him.

The two sides are deadlocked, although the sailors are not afraid of them, but they do not dare to act rashly, the number of the other party is too large, and it is really not worth fighting with this group of savages, as long as they wait here for the arrival of the large army, these stupid savages will know the consequences of offending the Xia army.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

The earth trembled slightly, and the savages were a little puzzled, and when they looked back and saw the image that shocked them.

Those strange human beings, like a person, pushed towards this side, and the feeling of oppression that came over them almost broke their hearts.

The number of the other party is not even as large as their own, but they feel that standing here is like facing a flood beast, and they have no intention of resisting at all.

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

The soldiers roared loudly and slammed in, slaying in this direction.

Facing the soldiers of the Xia Kingdom who were like a flood of beasts, these savages suddenly knew that they might have made a fatal mistake, and they screamed, and they didn't even have the idea of fighting, and scattered in a hurry, even ignoring those companions who fell to the ground, and the speed of escape was so fast that He Tie couldn't stop smacking his tongue.

"These goods still dare to attack us, shit, scared Lao Tzu." The monkey looked at the distant enemy, spat on the ground, and cursed.

The danger was cleared, and the casualties were checked, except for one or two who carefully twisted their feet when they fled, and the rest of the people just sweated a little more when they ran.

And the enemy did not touch even a single hair of the sailors, and when the sailors gathered up the corpses and wounded of the enemy, they found that they had unknowingly killed and wounded more than 20 people.

Although there were zero casualties, everyone didn't think that this was a proud achievement, those advanced weapons, if they were defeated by unarmed savages, they might as well have a dagger on their waists to wipe their necks, so as not to be embarrassed after returning to the Xia Kingdom.

Although these savages have no combat effectiveness, this also has to make the expedition team vigilant, this is the territory of these savages, these people can dispatch so many people at once, which means that there should be a relatively strong civilization here.

This is obviously unacceptable for Wei Ming, who has already regarded this place as the territory of the Xia Kingdom, another force that does not obey the Xia Kingdom exists here, if these people can be obedient, everyone will naturally not fight friends who do not know each other, if they are full of malice towards themselves and stubborn, then what awaits them will be their own anger.

If it were Wang Lang, he might try his best to fight for these people, but for Wei Ming, these savages who had nothing to do with him would not blink an eye if they were all killed.

The appearance of the wild men made Wei Ming change his plan, and his previous plan to go to the Eastern Continent was temporarily shelved, and he was ready to deal with the problems of these wild men before moving on.
