Chapter 101: Luring the Enemy Out of the Forest

After a few days passed, after Yu Xiaotian explained the matter of Jilong Bay, he took Heitou, Sun Baoqiang and others, plus a hundred soldiers, soldiers, and sailors, carrying four tiger squat cannons and more than 30 muskets, under the guidance of a native, stepped into the mountains and forests, and walked towards the location of the natives tribe.

Although the jungle road is difficult to navigate, once you are familiar with the situation here, and there are natives as guides to lead the way, it will be much easier for outsiders like Yu Xiaotian to move here, at least they will not worry about getting lost in the forest again.

According to the prior reconnaissance and the introduction of the natives, the old nest of the natives tribe was in a mountain forest about 20 miles southwest of Jilong Bay.

If there were no natives as guides, Yu Xiaotian and his party would have touched here by themselves, and it was estimated that it would take at least two days, and they would have taken the wrong way if they didn't get on the road, but after having a guide, it only took them less than a day to reach their intended destination.

Looking at the lush forest in front of him, Yu Xiaotian raised his hand to stop the pace of his subordinates, and said, "It should be here!" ”

Li Qing followed by his side and nodded, "This is it!" We will wait for them here! ”

Originally, it was a river valley, the terrain was relatively flat, and the vegetation was relatively sparse, and further into the forest, it was the territory of the natives.

And this is a place for Yu Xiaotian to fight, because he and his subordinates are not very good at fighting in the dense forest, especially to deal with these natives who walk like flying in the jungle, once they get in, they will not be able to exert their combat effectiveness, and they can only be broken by the other party one by one, and in the end they will become victims.

So when these natives helped, Yu Xiaotian decided that this battle would be dominated by natives, and they would not enter the forest to participate in the battle, but choose an open field as the location of their battle at the edge of the forest, give full play to their firepower advantage, and defeat this group of natives.

So with the help of the natives, he sent a few of his widows and two of his subordinates who had been hunters and were good at moving in the mountains and forests as scouts, and went here to reconnoiter in advance, and finally chose this place as the place to ambush the natives.

After Yu Xiaotian and his troops arrived here, he ordered his men to rest on the edge of the jungle here, waiting for the other natives to come here to meet them.

That night, the natives of several tribes gradually gathered with the warriors of their respective tribes to this place that they had agreed on in advance.

The native warriors of various tribes were mostly short, dark-skinned, short and strong limbs, all dressed in sackcloth or animal skins, and many of them were tattooed with strange patterns, all of them were barefoot, and there was a fierce feeling all over their bodies.

And they all held all kinds of weapons in their hands, some carried bamboo bows and bundles of bamboo arrows, some carried short spears made of hardwood, some of which were sharpened from animal bones, some of which were simply burned in the fire, and then sharpened to become short spears, and some of them had two stone axes in their waists......

In short, their weapons are very rudimentary, but it is undeniable that these weapons can effectively exert quite strong combat effectiveness in the jungle.

Of course, the weapons that Yu Xiaotian gave them a few days ago were also taken by them, and only taught them to be held by the strongest warriors in their tribe, which made their equipment even more mixed.

After a rough inventory, the leaders of these five tribes brought a total of nearly three hundred warriors, although the number is not enough to overwhelm the group of natives here, but after all, these three hundred indigenous warriors are the elite of each tribe, and their combat effectiveness is still quite considerable.

When they saw these natives gradually gathering here, this made the sea wolf tribesmen who were not very common natives very curious, and they looked at these natives one after another.

And the warriors of the natives also looked at Yu Xiaotian and his party from a distance with the same curious eyes, and pointed at the sea wolf tribes.

When the leaders of the native people came here, in order to thank Yu Xiaotian for his gift to them, they brought Yu Xiaotian some animal skins and dried game, and also brought some of their own fruit wine, which they dedicated to Yu Xiaotian.

And Yu Xiaotian gladly accepted their kindness and expressed his gratitude to them.

That night they had a drink in the forest, although there were a lot of mosquitoes, and Yu Xiaotian was full of bags from the bites, but Yu Xiaotian still endured it and drank it with these natives.

The alcohol brewed by the natives is very low, it tastes sour, a little fruity, but it is also delicious, for the amount of wine in Xiaotian, this thing is really nothing, so after tasting it, he drank it with these local leaders.

The natives are also quite hospitable, as long as he is a friend of you, everything is easy to say, when they saw Yu Xiaotian drinking like a whale swallowing a cow, these natives were also very happy, and followed Yu Xiaotian to raise their glasses frequently.

As a result, in less than half of the night, these local leaders were drunk by Yu Xiaotian, and had to raise their hands to admit defeat.

Before he drank too much, Yu Xiaotian, under Li Qing's translation, once again told these local leaders about his battle plan, and asked them to remember that they must act according to the plan, and when the time comes, they must not act without authorization, which will ruin his big things.

Several local leaders were full of awe of Xiaotian, so they naturally nodded and agreed, patting their chests and promising that they would not mess around, and they would definitely do what Yu Xiaotian ordered, not to mention that they thought that these outsiders had something in their hands that could breathe fire and discharge, and with them, it would definitely be stronger than letting the warriors in their tribe work hard, and they could better preserve their strength, so it was strange not to agree.

And those native warriors, at first, were wary of these sea wolf tribesmen, and at first they didn't dare to drink with them, but seeing their leaders talking and laughing with the leaders of these outsiders, their courage gradually grew.

In addition, Yu Xiaotian had instructed his subordinates to befriend these natives, so these sea wolf tribesmen also called on these natives to drink and eat meat together.

So gradually these native warriors and the sea wolf tribe got together, although the language of the two sides is not comprehensible, but a few sips of wine, there is not much estrangement, everyone talks with the duck, each speaks their own words, and the two hands wave and communicate with each other, but it is also very lively.

But they didn't relax too much, after all, this place was close to the edge of the territory of the natives, so although the camp was drinking and eating meat, Yu Xiaotian still asked the natives and the sea wolf tribe to send some sentries to scatter around to guard.

In order to befriend these native "brothers", some of the sea wolf tribes gave their gadgets such as knives, sewing kits and other things to the native friends who drank with them, these things seemed to be worthless, but for the natives, they were very precious.

The natives who received the gifts, of course, were very happy, so they also gave some handicrafts such as antlers, leopard teeth, wolf claws and other things to their new friends, and the atmosphere was quite good after a night on both sides.

After daybreak, the natives took their leave, took their tribal warriors, and went into the jungle where the natives lived.

Yu Xiaotian and his subordinates waited quietly at the edge of the jungle for their news.

Little by little, time passed in the waiting, and the surrounding forest was silent, except for the chirping of some birds and the cries of wild beasts, only the sound of the wind remained.

The weather they chose was also more careful, and there was no sudden heavy rain as usual, but the temperature in the forest was very high, so that the sea wolf tribes hiding at the edge of the forest were hot and sweaty, coupled with the constant harassment of mosquitoes, it was annoying, and there were even some grasshoppers that would suck cold and bite people, making these sea wolf tribes panic.

Fortunately, to deal with these locusts, the sea wolf tribes still have some way, they took out the fire fold, slightly put it on the body of the grasshopper adsorbed on the skin, after scalding them, the locust immediately shrunk into a ball and fell to the ground, in addition, in order to expel the snakes and insects, Yu Xiaotian also specially let these subordinates, all carry a small bag of sulfur, so that the snake and ants smell the smell of sulfur, and they also stay away and hide far away.

Time passed minute by minute, until the early afternoon, that is, at about three o'clock, when suddenly a scream sounded in the jungle opposite them.

Hearing this roar, the sea wolf tribes jumped up from the ground one after another, and without the need for their leader to greet them, they all immediately put on their belts, grabbed their weapons in their hands, and rushed towards the open land of the forest edge.

More than a dozen gunners also hurriedly raised their tiger squat cannons, rushed out of the cannon in a puff of smoke, and placed the tiger squat cannon on the ground, and the rest of the people were immediately greeted by their respective leaders and lined up in a horizontal line according to the different types of troops.

At this time, some natives had already appeared on the edge of the forest opposite the sea wolf, and from the forest, they rushed out one by one like a rabbit, and ran desperately towards the place where the sea wolf gathered.

Yu Xiaotian was startled when he saw it, and hurriedly asked Li Qing to shout to them, and finally he put on a formation, if he was scattered by these natives, they would be busy in vain, and if the queue was dispersed, and then they were rushed by that group of natives, they were estimated to be defeated and fled today, if this is the case, he Yu Xiaotian is afraid that he will be embarrassed! So he asked Li Qing to immediately shout at them and let them run towards the sides of the sea wolf formation.
