Chapter 127: Undercurrent
When animals migrate, it is when the grass on the ground begins to sprout, and thousands of years of habits allow animals to always walk forward in the footsteps of spring. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The ice on the surface of the river can still walk. In the past two days, there has been a bit of a cold spring, which has slowed down the snow. Wang Chuan estimates that it will take ten days and half a month to wait for the snow to melt. By the time the grass grows, it may take a few more days. In this time, instead of waiting for the enemy to come to the door, it is better to go and pull out a nail first. If you want to cut down an entire forest, you have to cut down trees one by one. Now it is time to concentrate the forces of several tribes and destroy the Fishy Department first with the power of thunder. Then slowly draw it to the Fishman.
After the preliminary preparations, all kinds of things are enough to go on an expedition once. And the location of that tribe is not too far, eight or nine days back and forth is enough. If you walk from the river, the road is not too difficult.
Wang Chuan and the leaders quickly came to the conclusion that this evening, the people of the Diaodi tribe had also arrived. It took everyone one night to prepare, and the next day they set out on their journey.
This time it was an unfamiliar environment, and there were several tribes cooperating with each other, so Wang Chuan had to lead the team personally. In that direction, it was also the previous iron ore production area, Wang Chuan had always wanted to go but couldn't do it, and now he just happened to take a look by the way.
The team was divided into four teams. The men, women and children of the Carving Flute tribe and the River tribe who had been leading the river tribe over there for a long time were led by the deer riders and Laqiong to explore the road in front. A team of the Xiniu tribe, led by Shi Jiao, and Bihu led a team of people to follow Wang Chuan's side. Bark was reluctant to stay in the tribe anyway, so he left Ranbula behind and brought a team of people to be responsible for breaking the queen.
The River tribe marched an unprecedented sixty people, including a dozen women. Qiao and Ji took the women of the tribe and a few young people to stay in the tribe. Now that the tribe is fenced in, it should not be a big problem for these people to stay behind.
On this outing, Wang Chuan also brought out Wolf Ting's three older wolf dogs. Wang Chuan and Wolf Ting have been training these little wolf dogs in the way of dog training in later generations since they were young, wolves have a natural instinct to obey, and under training, they follow all kinds of gestures and passwords very well. Although they are not yet fully grown, they have been trained and maintain a certain wolf nature, and they can play a big role in guarding and tracking. At least they're not as playful and timid as baby elephants.
After two days of walking, the forest by the river clearly showed a sparse road, which should be the migration path of the mammoth. Follow this passage and you'll come to the salt mine. According to the information Wang Chuan collected before, there should also be a tribe here, but the distance between the two sides is relatively far, and there is also the isolation of this passage, and there is no intersection between the two sides.
A few little wolfdogs barked twice at the riverbank, and a rabbit jumped out of the dead wood by the river, and was nailed to the ground by a crossbow arrow. The three little wolf dogs stepped forward, quickly took the rabbit back, and ran to Wang Chuan to ask for credit.
"Elder Chuan is good at archery." Shi Jiao looked at Wang Chuan's good archery skills with admiration, and thought to himself that the children he sent over would learn this kind of archery in ten years, no matter what. At that time, they will be able to become a large combat force of the tribe. Wang Chuan said that if these children came out of the Xiniu tribe, they could be allowed to return to their tribe after ten years. Shi Jiao played a trick on this point. He went out to change some children, and raised them in the tribe with the children of the tribe first, and when the time came to send a river department, these children would be considered to have come out of the West Cattle Department. When these children were sent out, Shijiao also made a lot of promises to them, as long as they were willing to go back, there would be a lot of benefits, and when the time came, three or four out of ten people could go back, and the Xiniu tribe would not be at a loss. He didn't know how many adults the River Tribe had taken in in the past few months, otherwise he wouldn't have those expectations.
Wang Chuan put away the rabbit, tore off a bit of dried meat and rewarded the three little wolf dogs, looked at the forest by the river, and said, "I remember that there is also a tribe near here. I don't know if Uncle Shijiao knows? ”
Shi Jiao said: "There are two tribes to the north here, both of which are small tribes, the kind that don't even have tinder. They were mainly gatherers, supplemented by hunting, and the old men were all women. There were about thirty or forty people in the tribe, and they rarely came out. If Elder Chuan is interested, let's visit us on the way back. ”
Wang Chuan said: "We have a plan after the beginning of spring, and this kind of tribe will be handed over to our Bihu to communicate at that time." We don't expand blindly. ”
This kind of small tribe can only eat in its own cave in winter, maybe it doesn't know that the river next to it has risen, and when the time comes, Bihu will go with salt pottery, and it should be easy to subdue. There is no need to waste force on these small tribes. In order to maintain the diversity of their bloodlines, these tribes will not completely annex them, but will only strip them of their relatives and leave them to fend for themselves.
Wang Chuan didn't know that these tribes that were easy to subdue had already been subdued. At this moment, in the forest, there were several figures staring at Wang Chuan and the others from afar, quietly discussing something.
"The people of the Xiniu tribe are gone. It seems that except for those children, the number is not bad. ”
"There are so many people who come out of the river department, and they like to wear that strange animal skin, and it's easy to recognize. There were more than a dozen in front, and there were twenty more here following the elephant riding, yo, and there were more behind, all of them ......."
"I saw those traitors...... Those...... And the ...... of the Vulcan tribe They were not swallowed up by the river, they betrayed us! ”
"There is no Rong Chief......"
"They must have killed Chief Rong before betraying! You may have killed other people close to Leader Rong, have you seen anyone close to Leader Rong? ”
"Nope."
"These traitors have caused us to not even be able to return to the tribe!"
"Let us eat the bark of the tree every day, but they eat fat. You see, all of them are stronger than they used to be......"
"They're damned!"
"Damn it!"
"Let's rush up and kill them all!"
"Don't be impulsive. They are all strong underneath, and we have few people who can't beat them. ”
"So what should we do, are we just watching these people get away?"
"Let's go raid the lair of the Tahe River tribe! Since they are betrayed, there must be no river god in the river department. But I've heard that the pottery comes from them. There must be many more in their tribe. There weren't many people in their river department, and even if they joined those traitors, they would only be a hundred. Now there are more than fifty young people who have walked at once, and the rest are afraid that they are old and weak. They certainly didn't think that we had united the two tribes of Arashi and Gu, and there were now eighty or ninety of them. We'll leave only the children, and we'll kill them all. When the time comes, we will rob the pottery and take our people back to the tribe, so that the witches and elders of the tribe will not blame us for losing the Rong leader and betraying people. When the time comes, maybe we'll have a lot to do. ”
As soon as these words came out, several people whispered in agreement. As they spoke, several people tore the roots of the tree from the ground, threw them into their bloody mouths, and chewed on them like jerky. Some of the best warriors in Hebe are now like wild monkeys, thin and thin, and I don't know how much suffering they have suffered during this time. Finally, they felt that the hard days were coming to an end.
