Chapter 488: The Huwa Tribe

Chicken Coop Bay has some people to start cutting down the surrounding trees, and Chicken Coop Bay, surrounded by jungle, is too dangerous.

Perhaps one day the natives will rush out of the jungle to attack the people who are working, and the trees cut down can be used to build camps and barns.

Larger trees can also be hoarded for shipbuilding, and the vacant land left by felling trees can be cultivated. Xing Shenyan has no reason not to do it, and there are no environmental groups to protest in Daming.

At the same time, Wu Shuang actively prepared to send troops to another village, Lijia Village. Since Lijia Village is not on the seaside, it needs to walk through a section of jungle, and the Changxing army needs to make more preparations.

First of all, it is indispensable to guide the party, and the Changxing army is not familiar with the environment of the jungle, and it is very dangerous to get lost.

In addition, the natives are haunted in the jungle, and once they attack the Changxing army in the jungle, it will be very troublesome for the Changxing army to deal with.

Zheng Zhilong of the Navy was not idle, he sent all the Flying Fish clippers to find the whereabouts of Zhang Huan and the others.

The ships searched over and over again along the course of the storm, but found no trace.

When the Changxing Army was busy, a banquet was set up in the hall of Lijia Village. The patriarch Li Wannian was drinking with the short indigenous middle-aged people, and there were maids who kept adding wine and food to the indigenous middle-aged people during the banquet.

The black hand of the indigenous middle-aged man touched the maid from time to time, causing the maid to exclaim in bursts.

Li Wannian not only did not stop it, but also clapped his hands and applauded, praising the Huwa patriarch for his immortality, and the atmosphere at the wine table was extremely warm.

The patriarch of Huwa proudly boasted about his proud achievements of the Ten Night Princesses, and when he was excited, he drank the wine glass in his hand and grinned.

After three rounds of drinking, Li Wannian said cautiously: "Patriarch! Lijia Village is in trouble, and I hope that the patriarch will help Lijia Village for the sake of our in-laws! ”

When the Huwa patriarch heard that Lijia Village was in trouble, he slapped his chest with a "snapping" sound. said: "Patriarch Li is too polite, we are in-laws. The matter of Lijia Village is the matter of my Huwa tribe, and I will definitely help. ”

Li Wannian was overjoyed when he heard this, he really did the right thing when he gave his daughter to the ugly thing in front of him. Otherwise, how could he exchange for the stability of Lijia Village for more than ten years, and he would not be comfortable as the patriarch of Lijia Village.

"Patriarch Huva! It's like this......" The two of them bit their ears at the table for a long time, and at the end the Huwa patriarch laughed even more.

"Patriarch Li just has a lot of eyes, not bad! Not bad! Let's do this, and when I go back, I will gather all the warriors of the clan and destroy the outsiders in a battle!" ”

Wu Shuang prepared for three days before setting off into the jungle, and he led 300 Changxing troops and 200 Japanese warriors. The rest of the men are all in Chicken Coop Bay, guarding against the possible natives in the jungle.

The natives of Taiyuan Island are very hostile to outsiders, and they often move in the forest. Seeing the opportunity to attack the settled Han Chinese, they believed that the Han Chinese had destroyed the jungle and robbed them of their land and must be punished.

The Han Chinese who settled here either formed a village to protect themselves or took refuge in powerful tribes.

Fortunately, the natives do haunt the jungle, but they lack the ability to attack. As long as the Han people hide in the wall, they have no way at all.

The expansion of Jilong Bay will inevitably tear down the original wall, and guarding against the sneak attack of the aborigines has become a top priority.

Wu Shuang took away almost half of the troops, and the remaining men and horses in Jilong Bay immediately became nervous. Even the ship's soldiers joined the patrol, firing first and then questioning any moving creatures that appeared in the jungle.

Wu Shuang, who entered the jungle, did not go straight to Lijia Village, his destination was actually the Huwa tribe.

Lijia Village's reliance is nothing more than Huwa, a large tribe with a population of nearly 1,000, as long as the Huwa tribe is defeated, Lijia Village will be vulnerable at all.

What made Wu Shuang a little depressed was that the killing of the Ganlasi people a few days ago made the tribes in the jungle move to the depths again.

The Changxing army needed to march in the jungle for a whole day to reach its destination, and such a long march in the jungle was a test for the Changxing army.

Wu Shuang asked everyone to bring the medicinal materials to repel snakes and insects prepared by Zhou Yuli, and the snake medicine was even more brought, and even let everyone bring some Artemisia wine.

They were fully prepared before stepping into the jungle, and the Changxing army that entered the jungle knew the difficulty of marching in the jungle.

There is no way to drink here, and it takes strong soldiers with steel knives to constantly chop through the bushes.

The constant appearance of snakes and insects in the bushes frightened the soldiers walking in front of them, but the two guides were accustomed to the situation in front of them.

As they walked in front, they explained the snakes and insects that appeared. Tell the soldiers of the Changxing Army which ones are highly poisonous and which ones are edible.

Wu Shuang hurriedly asked people to write it down in a small notebook, which was an experience that no amount of silver could buy. If the Changxing Army wants to completely occupy Taiyuan Island, it is indispensable to deal with snakes and insects. These are the valuable experiences that the indigenous people have summed up with their lives, which can save the Changxing army from many detours.

Some of the soldiers were dismissive of the guide's words, which they thought were alarmist. It's just to show their importance!

Despite Wu Shuang's preparations, three soldiers were bitten by poisonous snakes. A Japanese warrior was not rescued, and died in the jungle with a blue face.

At this moment, no one thinks that the guide is alarmist, and they are honest like a good baby, and they take the guide's words as a military order to carry them out.

At noon, they ate their own fried noodles and did not rest at all. In Wu Shuang's words, staying in the jungle for a moment is more dangerous.

Arriving at the Huva garrison early would have given them more safety, and although the soldiers were tired, they agreed with Wu Shuang's words.

Just after noon, they arrived at the Huwa tribe's station. This is a small valley, where the messy branch of the hut built by the Huwa tribe is located.

To Wu Shuang's surprise, there were very few young people in the valley. Most of them were old and weak, women and children, who were lazily walking around the valley, only the children were running around.

Wu Shuang is ruthless, dead natives are always better than dead Han people. Immediately ordered: the soldiers of the Changxing Army blocked the exit of the valley, and the Japanese warriors entered the valley. All the men who were taller than the wheels were killed, and the women were brought back to Chicken Coop Bay as trophies to be rewarded to the soldiers who had made meritorious contributions to the battle.

At the sound of an order, the Changxing army moved, and they lined up in a phalanx to block the exit of the valley. The natives were very alarmed when they found outsiders, some of them fled in all directions, some went back to their huts to get weapons, and some tried to escape into the jungle.
