Chapter 265: Set fire to the mountain

There are not many trees on this mountain, and it looks a little bare, and it is not easy to hide. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It didn't seem like they had to clear the other forks in the road, they just had to follow the main road uphill.

"There, that's where I last came." The bearded man pointed to the right. There are cliffs to shelter from the rain, and some of the Xiyi people lived there before.

Immediately Chun brought someone to check, "Su, there is no one, and there are still some materials left behind." ”

"Leave fifty people here, and the others will continue to go up the mountain with me." Matsu didn't follow, although Ya came, but the team's actions were counted, which was confidence.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that it was not impossible to merge with the Youyan clan, because Ya's character seemed to be very strong, but he would often compromise at the last moment, as long as he was strong enough, he could suppress it, then it would not be a problem.

But he has a heart, but Ya has no intention! There is a big business of the Yan family, why merge.

Whenever there were traces of a fork in the road on the mountain, he would leave a few people, five or ten, who could immediately shout a warning if there was any situation.

"These trees are weird." Prabhu slashed at the trunk of a mahogany tree with an axe.

Su Yang didn't recognize these trees either, but except that the color was red, it shouldn't be anything, "What's wrong with these trees?" ”

Prabhu shook his head, he couldn't tell, he just felt weird.

It's all up to this, those Xiyi warriors are either still on the mountain, or they have really run away, and they are not afraid of delaying time, so he simply asked Pabhu to lead people to cut down trees.

In the Stone Age, it was not so easy to bring down a tree, it was time-consuming, so I picked a small tree, slashed it with an iron axe, and let several warriors work together to knock it down.

Soon, the small tree was cut down, it was really nothing, but Su Yang still paid attention.

When they reached the top of the mountain, they found that they could not reach the top of the mountain, the road was broken, and it was all cliffs that could not be climbed. And here is the residence of the Xiyi people, at the bottom of a cliff, and there is a stream of water that falls, forming a small reservoir.

There is a big cave inside, I don't know how deep, judging from the traces here, the Xiyi people do live here, and the conditions are not very good.

"Leave fifty men here, and follow the rest over there."

On the other side, there was a road, not to the top of the mountain, but to the side of the mountain, and in the distance I saw a large red tree with incomparably lush foliage.

There are more than 200 people by his side, and they can move forward with confidence, not to mention that Chun led people to explore the way in front of him, and he kept approaching, but nothing happened, and he didn't see even a single Xiyi person, and it can even be said that there were no living creatures, not even small animals.

"Sue, come and see, it's the fur of the Fire Beast."

Chun took a small handful of red hair in both hands, which was a foot long, and it felt similar to a hair's hair.

In front of me is the big tree, not too tall, but too horizontally, at least three meters wide, with a craggy trunk, like a work of art, I don't know how many years it has grown.

And behind the big tree, the warriors soon discovered a cave. And continuing from the outside is the end, there is no road, it is a cliff. Although this mountain is not too high, it is not said that you can go down, at least not here.

"Could it be that those Xiyi people really ran away from the cave?" Looking at the swarthy cave, to enter or not to enter.

After a while, Su Yang patted each other's hands, and instantly figured out that he didn't really want this mountain. Although this place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if all the warriors of Xiyi were on this mountain at the beginning, I am afraid it will be difficult to attack.

Although this mountain is good, only by going out from the mountain can livestock breeding be developed, and it is equally safe to build a wall on the plains.

"Go and look for firewood, I'm going to burn this cave, and the Xiyi people themselves have firewood, and they'll find it."

Not only did he want to burn the cave, but he also burned the whole mountain, because the mountain itself was a copper mine, and it was easy to see malachite and cuprite, and there must have been a wealth of copper ore underneath, and he had laid it down to be mined, like a salt pan, and he would not establish a place to live here.

According to his idea, if the salt mine is lost, it can be fought back, then the copper mine can be fought back, and if the tribe is lost, I am afraid that the only way to flee is to flee.

Soon, the soldiers reported that they didn't see firewood, which made Su Yang shocked, "What, you didn't see firewood, how is this possible?" ”

But this is the case, and there is no firewood in conspicuous places on both sides of the road, including the upper and lower places where the Xiyi people live. But they saw the ashes of the plants and trees, which proved that the Xiyi people also used fire, and yes, it was not the wild people who ate raw food.

"Sure enough, there was a problem! The warriors of the white spears went to guard the entrance of the cave over there, and the warriors of salt guarded the entrance of the cave on this side. The warrior with the bear went to look for firewood to burn, and Feng Bo ran down to inform the Great Elder, so that she could bring someone to collect firewood and send it up the mountain.

No, wait a minute, I see, the Xiyi people have not given up here. ”

Su Yang seemed to have thought of something, and immediately called Dakang, "You take all the warriors with bears down the mountain, the speed must be fast, and let the great elder take all the warriors with bears to the other side of the mountain." Chun, you also come here, see clearly, we don't care about this direction now, go around to the back of the mountain, the warriors of the Xiyi people are very likely to be halfway up the mountain there.

One of these two caves can lead to a cliff location that is not too high above the ground, and the entrance to the cave should be relatively hidden, so be sure to look carefully. No, you let Youxiong nearly 300 warriors pull up a long line, try to hold that side as much as possible, if you see a Xiyi warrior, kill it, if you see a half-witch woman who doesn't dare to kill, then arrest it and leave it to me.

Feng Bo, you also go, and send the news back at any time. Also, let all the non-combatants go up the mountain, find something that can be burned as much as possible, bring all the Xiyi animal skins that were harvested before, and those elders go up the mountain together. ”

Immediately, Dakang and Chun set off with people, time is pressing, if his guess is true, then this time the Xiyi people may not be able to escape. Even if you guess wrong, there is no loss, anyway, you have to burn here.

Ya spoke up at this time: "Su, do you think the Xiyi people are waiting for us on the other side of the cave?" ”

"Yes, if we go into the cave, we may be in trouble. How can there be no firewood on this huge Xiyi Mountain. As you can see, the women and children ran away without firewood, so the only explanation is that the firewood was in the cave.

You are looking at the cliffs outside, where can you put firewood, why put it in a cold hole, it is easy to get damp. Instead of waiting at the end of the cave to start a battle, the Hiyi want to burn us. That's his guess, but it's not all, there's no need to explain too much for Ya, and it's not clear that it's enough to know this.

"What, burn us." Ya was afraid for a while, she wanted to rush in first just now, and she couldn't let Su Yang take advantage of the benefits.

"So what now?"

"It's simple, they want to set fire, and so do we." He calculated the time, Dakang took people down the mountain, how could it take more than ten minutes, plus Matsu took people around the back of the mountain, it took half an hour before and after, which was enough.

"Ya, this cave is handed over to you, leave fifty people to guard the entrance of the cave, and the others will find everything that can be burned, don't cut down the big trees, but you can break off the branches, and don't let go of the weeds." He rubbed his hands together, very excited, this is the pleasure of seeing through the enemy's plan. (To be continued.) )
