Chapter 049: Ruthless

"Why are there still children?"

Li Zao's age is a hard injury, mainly reflected in his height, if he follows the horizontal development, he is already about to catch up with Lei Ju. Gesang was very angry at the behavior of the little children mixed in the Barbarian Cow tribe, where is this to save people, it is simply fooling people.

Li Zao looked at Li Don with a blank eye, he was not suitable to speak at this time, only the leader Li Don was qualified to communicate with Gesang, don't look at the goshawk tribe and Gesang escaped from the tribal camp. But outside, Gesang is the representative of the goshawk tribe, and he is the only representative.

For Gesang's questioning, Li Dun only showed a lot of meaning in his contemptuous eyes, but Gesang only heard the other party's sneer: "What's so strange about this? ”

His indifference is easy to understand, the goshawk tribe is not the tribe with forty or fifty warriors anymore, and the goshawk tribe is now a thing of the past. Even if the hostages are successfully rescued, the number of people who will survive is unknown, and most of them are women and children, and the number of warriors may even be inferior to that of the Brute Bull tribe. Since Gesang wants to represent the goshawk tribe, then he should recognize the reality, he is now a bare pole, what qualifications does he have to pick and choose?

He seemed to be aware of Lytton's coldness, and he also knew that his choice of questioning the leader of a tribe was inappropriate, but the words had already been spoken, and it was impossible to change it. Gesang explained a little stumblingly: "Leader Lydon, I didn't mean that, this time the Barbarian Bull Tribe reached out to the Goshawk Tribe to rescue the trapped clansmen, Gesang is very grateful." But you also know that this is a war, not a child's house, and it will kill people? ”

"I know there will be deaths, but what does this have to do with Li Zao's appearance in the team?"

"Will he be able to protect himself?"

Litton nodded and said, "You don't have to care, he is going to the battlefield to find the glory of a warrior, and life and death have been put aside." ”

"Such a little kid ......"

It's false to say that it's not surprising, Gesang can't imagine that the Barbarian Bull Tribe would let teenage children participate in the front line of the war, maybe this is the way of survival of the Manniu Tribe, no wonder there are so few adult men in this tribe, maybe it is this arrogant behavior that hurts them. In the Goshawk tribe, the tribesmen were too tolerant of their children, and their possession of a well-fed territory made this behavior even more indulgent.

But on the other hand, he admires the Manniu tribe very much.

A soldier's life's most important thing is glory. There is nothing more important for a warrior than glory.

That's why warriors make necklaces from the teeth of the beasts they hunt and hang them on their heads and necks as the most beautiful ornaments. The gift of many warriors for the girl's pursuit is also the tooth of the beast. And after killing a powerful enemy on the battlefield, the warrior will take the most noble trophy with him, if it is not too heavy, or if it is easy to carry, it will not be discarded for the rest of his life, this is the warrior's pursuit of honor. It is also the capital to show off in the future.

Faced with Lytton's answer, Gesang was speechless. This is the secret of the strong combat power of the warriors of the Barbarian Cattle Division! Maybe the goshawk tribe in the future should do the same. How did he know that Li Zao's appearance in the expedition was a complete accident. Li Zao wanted to go with him because of Lyton's departure, where did he want to find the glory of a warrior. What he said to Lytton last night was a kind of excuse at all. The two brothers knew this well, and no one broke it. Besides, the Barbarian Bull tribe is strong in terms of individual combat ability, but the source of this strength is not the tempering of extreme environments. You must know that the tempering of extreme environments is often accompanied by a high rate of casualties, and the Manniu tribe simply cannot afford to consume this kind of training, nor can they enjoy the fruits of this training.

There is only one reason why the Bull Warrior is strong, genes. This comes from the confidence of the central tribe, of course, if this is too hurtful, it will make Gesang go berserk.

He is tall and has a round waist. It will naturally be easy to bully an opponent who is a head shorter than yourself. Coupled with the reflexes that are not weaker than those of other tribesmen, the combat effectiveness will naturally rise in a straight line.

The Barbarian Bull tribe absorbed Li Zao, who was only in his early tens, which made Gesang respectful at the same time, but also a little worried, it seems that the Manniu tribe is too casual, and such an attitude is easy to cause confusion for Gesang. Does Lytton care about rescuing the goshawk tribesmen?

The team finally set off, and thanks to the tradition of the Brute Bull tribe, the army set out before dawn, into the night. The advantage of this is that there is a lot less reluctance to say goodbye.

The camp of the Wild Bull did not feel that the warriors had left, or that no one wanted to break the silence at all.

When they arrived at the bay, it was already dark, and Lytton asked the tribal warriors to start resting, and the moment they lifted the fish cage from the bay, Gesang was devastated. I was puzzled, how did the people of the Barbarian Bull tribe come up with such a subtle mechanism? Didn't you hear that the Wild Ox tribe often lacked food? It seems that the rumors are not credible.

As long as there is a fish cage, the fish in the river are almost like they will climb up on their own, and they are inexhaustible.

"When the sun is overhead, the team can climb the mountain in front of them and camp at the foot of the mountain in the evening, but it's not very safe, so they choose to camp on the mountain. After two days of walking through the forest and around the salt valley, you will be able to see your tribe's Baektu Mountain......"

Litton handed the grilled fish to Gesang and told him what he had arranged. Gesang is still very fond of fish, but unfortunately he doesn't have the heart to taste this delicacy right now. Listening to Lytton's plan, he couldn't help but think carefully in his heart. But the result surprised him: "Three days of travel, you have to walk for five days?" ”

According to the foot strength of the Manniu tribe, this point is not a problem at all if it is three days away, and it can even be reached in two days. But the problem is, Lytton didn't want to be in such a hurry.

All the energy is spent on the road, what if there is an encounter with the fire demon's search team and there is an encounter?

It's better to be on the safe side.

Lydon's steadiness puzzled Gesang, who anxiously wanted to reach the tribe to see if his people were safe and sound. Of course, it is impossible to be safe and sound in the true sense, the main thing is that he wants to know how many people are still alive? He was dissatisfied with Lyton's plan because of this, and even Gesang himself did not find out, his mood that day did not relax with the expedition, but became more anxious and nervous. Even the reverence for Lytton gradually faded away.

In the face of Gesang's questioning, of course, Litton would not compromise, and his reasons were even more sufficient, so sufficient that Gesang was speechless: "The march is naturally important, but you must not forget that we are taking risks, and there is no hope of victory in a head-on battle." The disparity in numbers is something I can't ignore. Although the Wild Bull Tribe promised to save the brother tribe, as the leader, I can't let my people take risks? ”

"But hurry, you can, right?" Gesang said stubbornly.

"Nope." Litton was unkind, and did not give Gesang any time to continue, and said: "The ideal state is not to rescue the hostages in your camp, which is irrational. For the Fire Demons, they have an absolute tactical advantage and wait for work. For us, the only option is to be unprepared in order to be successful. ”

"What do you mean?"

Li Dun glanced at Gesang, as if he was despising the other party's IQ, but fortunately, Gesang would not be incomprehensible in the next words: "We are tired and tired on the road, and the fire demon is resting in the camp, do you say that you are waiting for work?" ”

"And Leader Lytton, will I be able to know your plans?" I can't even understand the other party's tactical explanation, what else can Gesang do besides blushing?

Lytton spread out a map made of birch bark, in fact, this kind of map is very difficult to preserve, and you have to be very careful when using it, if you don't do it well, it will crack. It can only be used as a tool for short-term use, of course, the animal skin will be much better, but for an operation that is controlled within ten days to waste a animal skin, it is too much to take the property of the tribe seriously: "This has a lot to do with your food for the winter, how much supply do the fire demons bring, is it enough for them to consume in this area for a long time?" ”

"I'm afraid it's not much, the fire demon is lightly armed, and the fight is a surprise attack." Gesang said sullenly: "Of course, there may be follow-up supply teams to send supplies, but there is no way to know about these. ”

Li Dun said calmly: "It's about the same as my estimate, the Fire Demon people are likely to directly use your tribe's food for the winter, and before the food is consumed, they may not have a follow-up army to arrive." This also created the conditions for our rescue. ”

"What if they have a follow-up army and supply teams?" Gesang couldn't help but worry.

Li Dun glanced at Gesang with disdain, and said coldly: "The warriors of the Barbarian Bull tribe go back directly, and then lead the clansmen in the camp to move, I can't let my warriors go to death, knowing that they can't defeat the opponent, and waste the lives of the warriors." Of course, his words meant more that it was impossible to let the Barbarian Bull tribe shed every last drop of blood for the sake of the Goshawk Tribe. There is also a meaning, that is, to say that the escape is the interests of the tribe above all else, and Lytton also created a precedent for the Brute Bull Tribe. After all, the previous leaders were all stunned, and they would carry out it if they didn't agree with each other, and they would die if they carried it out, and they didn't care how many people there were, and they couldn't beat it or not...... Of course, Lyton's words still made Gesang feel cold and ruthless.

In fact, this has nothing to do with Lyton's ruthlessness, but his most rational choice as a superior person. It's just that for the goshawk tribe, it's too cold-blooded.

He didn't even say that if the fire demon people's search team didn't separate and more than a hundred people gathered together, the Barbarian Bull tribe wouldn't have come out to rescue Gesang's people.

He's not here to die.

Looking at Lidton's back, although he was sitting on the edge of the fire, there was still a chill on Gesang's body. Lyadon's indifference made him understand at least one truth, for Lydon, only the life of the people of the Barbarian Bull tribe is fate, and the goshawk tribe? It doesn't matter if he lives or dies. At least he won't do it until he's done it with enough benefits.

At this moment, the corners of Gesang's mouth were anguish, he escaped from the tribe alone, what else is there on his body that makes Li Dun worry about it?

Unconsciously, he touched a stone bead hanging around his neck, his heart moved secretly, and he said to himself: "Maybe it's only like this, he's just a leader, maybe he can't find it at all......"
