Chapter Forty-Eight: The Pursuit of Victory

I don't know it, the battle has lasted for more than half a day, first the archer Yi gave Naqi a dismount, and then the recurve bow showed his might, and then the strategy of the formation was superior, and finally because of the horse steps, the individual combat effectiveness of the Long tribe was rapidly improved.

At this point in the battle, the situation of the battle has been significantly tilted.

However, this did not prevent Naqi from being a dangerous opponent, and after a few rounds, he understood the core content of the phrase "pay attention to the next game" that Long Qiupeng had just shouted, and he also said to his fighters: "Squat down, steady!" ”

However, Naqi is smart, which does not mean that every warrior of the Qiutu tribe is extremely smart. Not counting the energy and expenses spent on training soldiers to build barracks, just teaching their own soldiers to master this skill that is not big or small, but can play a huge role at critical moments, it took Long Qiupeng ten days, so where is Naqi can understand in a word.

No matter how ruthless Naqi is, he still can't beat the primitive people's nature of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, and if he persists, I'm afraid that he will really lose his armor, and the battle scene is already a sea of blood, and Naqi can't even tell how many soldiers he still has fighting.

He stood on his chariot and looked at Long Qiupeng, who was still wrapped in the battlefield, and fell into deep thought.

"Dragon Leader, why do you want to kill them all?!" Naqi stood there, still making a plain and elegant posture, but his heart had already turned upside down.

Long Qiupeng stopped the killer, stepped back a little, and came to the protective circle of his warriors. As if Na Qi had told a joke, Long Qiupeng had a smile on his face, he shook his head and said to Na Qi: "If, now you and I are exchanged, will you open the net?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Naqi's face turned pale.

Long Qiupeng restrained his smile, his face darkened, and he said solemnly: "It is because I know your answer that this war has become indispensable, I have sworn that I will not let others persecute the Long tribe again!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the warriors of the Dragon Clan, who were in the middle of the battle, became even more energetic, and they shouted and pounced on their enemies again.

Naki stood there, pale, and he finally had to face his defeat. He had made a bold and correct choice on both sides before, dragging Long Qiupeng into a protracted battle. But this time, he finally bowed to fear, to the primitive man's natural desire to seek advantage and avoid harm, and he shouted: "Retreat! "Prepare for the warriors of the Hillland Tribe to be evacuated from the battlefield.

But it's already too late, if he chooses to retreat at the moment when Long Qiupeng shoots the arrow, maybe things will take a turn for the better, things have developed to this point, failure is inevitable, the difference is how much loss it can bring to the Long tribe.

And when he turned around, he was doomed to Long Qiupeng's victory!

"Chase!" Before Naqi's words fell, Long Qiupeng had already decided to chase after him.

In such a situation, the chase battle is much easier to fight than the positional battle, the two themselves are in close combat, and those hill warriors who went deep into the depths of the dragon is position were killed by the people of the dragon tribe with one move as soon as they turned around. Finally retreated from the Dragon Clan, and most of the survivors who were already small in the country were lost.

However, even withdrawing from the Dragon Clan's position meant that everything was safe, and all they did was prolong the fear of death.

The people of the Hill Tribe are taller and stronger than the Dragon Warriors, which means that they are relatively weak in agility and speed. In the pursuit, the warriors of the Dragon tribe had a relatively large advantage.

The faster Dragon warriors were at the front, responsible for chasing the deserters of the Hill Tribe, and after they caught up, they only beat the opponent to serious injuries or stunned with two or three axes, and then continued to advance, while those who followed behind gave the opponent a fatal blow.

This kind of pursuit was almost a carpet blow to the Qiutu tribe, and it didn't take long for Long Qiupeng's sight to be left with only Naqi and a few of his guards who were fleeing.

The deer and the bear were about to chase, but were stopped by Long Qiupeng, he said: "Don't chase, one is to be careful and deceitful, the second is to go back and beat him Lao Tzu, kill him now, it will be more troublesome to turn back and attack the city, and the third is that the time is not early, you should still seize the time to rest, don't delay the big thing." ”

If strictly calculated, Naqi is just a conspiracy after all, and the impact of killing him on the hill tribe is not very clear, but in the primitive society, if you kill your son in front of Lao Tzu, you must be careful that the enemy has the mentality of dying with him. What's more, in this battle, Long Qiupeng has seen Naqi's sophistication and viciousness beyond his age, so it's better to be cautious now.

This battle lasted for a full day, and with the pursuit battle, the position of the Long tribe also advanced a lot, but Long Qiupeng felt that the march would take another day. In fact, the long-distance battle is very impatient, and now the Long tribe has no chance of surprise attack or assault, so Long Qiupeng is more inclined to win steadily and minimize the loss of physical strength on the team.

Although he hesitated for a moment, he finally announced, "Let's start resting......

Immediately, everyone was relieved of the fighting state.

The primitive people have not yet mastered the way to set up camp tents, and on the plains, there is no special attention to the site selection, the so-called camps, but to level out some places that can be lit and can cause fires, and the others are not so important.

Long Qiupeng rushed to the front line with the team before, and when he returned to the support team, he found that the camp had been corrected, and the stream responsible for supplying food today was already waiting there.

"Sister!" The deer was very happy to see the stream, but the brook was very sad when he saw the deer, but fortunately, the deer, who was a heavy shield soldier, was very safe this time and was unharmed.

Long Qiupeng saw that the sky was getting dark, so he asked: "Why don't you go back, it's too late, I'm afraid I'll encounter danger on the road." ”

Xi saw that Long Qiupeng was covered in blood, and his face turned pale, and he was about to faint.

"Haha, you doctor still faint blood?" Long Qiupeng saw Xi's expression and joked.

But the brook paid no attention to him, and pulled him over and looked up and down carefully. Only then did Long Qiupeng know that Xi was worried about himself, so he said: "It's all other people's blood." ”

But Brook didn't believe him at all, and still examined it carefully. There is no exaggeration of any injury, and such a fierce confrontation will inevitably have some flesh and skin injuries. When Xi saw it, he didn't say anything, just silently bandaged Long Qiupeng with herbs.

If Xi said anything, Long Qiupeng could refute it, but with her like this, Long Qiupeng was embarrassed to open his mouth, so he could only say seriously and honestly: "Men, you have to be cruel to yourself." ”

Xi glanced at Long Qiupeng, still didn't speak, and turned to look at the injuries of the others. At this time, Long Qiupeng noticed that the wounded of the second echelon who had been relieved of the combat state first had been dealt with by Xi.

In the primitive army establishment, there was a lack of full-time military doctors, and most of the soldiers were wounded and had to ask for more blessings after the war. Long Qiupeng guessed that it might be Dahu or Xi himself who thought of this, so today he asked Gui to be the deputy leader of the tribe, and Xi, who was in charge of the tribe's materials, personally escorted the military rations.

And the reason why it was almost dark was that she hadn't returned to the tribe yet, she was waiting for them to come back and treat her wounds.

In normal times, Long Qiupeng might say something to comfort her, but now that she is on the battlefield, it is sad to talk too much. What's more, Long Qiupeng also followed the real fight for a day, and suffered a little injury, so he didn't have the strength to think twice.

But in the end, he still said to the stream: "Don't go back tonight, I will send someone back to bring a letter to the lake, you are walking tomorrow morning, and it is not safe to walk at night." ”

This is not all considerate and kind words. Naqi is so insidious and cunning, I don't know if she will resort to other tricks. Besides, the grassland is empty, if you meet the steppe wolf, a few people in the team in Pingxi are not opponents at all. Even if it was someone else, Long Qiupeng would suggest that it would be safer for him to go his separate ways the next morning, when the troops were deployed.

The sky gradually darkened, and the Long tribe surrounded the supplies in the middle, and the others were distributed in a circle outside, and they still took turns to be on duty at night. Long Qiupeng and several high-ranking tribes were also surrounded in the inner circle as key protection objects, and Yi could have stayed in the inner circle, but he insisted on patrolling outside at night, and Long Qiupeng did not stop much, but obviously although the arrow did not hit Naqi during the day, it still gave him great confidence.

Everyone gathered around their campfires, eating and chatting. Long Qiupeng and Lu and Xiong discussed the battle situation during the day while analyzing the battle behind.

Xiong was a little worried that although the losses of the Long tribe were relatively small, they also had a large number of casualties, and if they were tired from a long day of running, they might not be the opponent of Qiutu.

Long Qiupeng shook his head and said: "Don't worry, judging from the intelligence that came back before, the size of the Qiutu tribe is about the same as the current Long tribe, and the total number of troops will not be much more than ours, even if there are still troops defending the city, the quality will not be high." With that, he looked at the deer.

Because Xiong set off in advance as the vanguard tribe, he had not heard of the specific arrangements, so Lu told Xiong the specific situation: "Their city walls are similar to ours, only one person to one and a half high, but the wood and stone structure should be stronger than ours." There are watchtowers around, and the watchtowers are similar to ours. There are two tactics set before, one is to shoot at each other, suppress the opponent with the range of the recurve bow, and then the melee soldiers go to break through the door, the difficulty of this is that if the opponent stands on the city wall and shoots arrows, our range advantage may still be relatively weak; The other is the fire attack, which throws rockets directly into the tribe, and the difficulty with this is that we don't know anything about the situation inside. ”

Xiong pouted and said, "That means it's not feasible, isn't it?" But after saying that, he regretted it, and he looked at Long Qiupeng carefully, for fear that he would be angry.
