Chapter 6: Nomads?
With this life-saving meal, the clan finally came back to life. After all, when Wang Qiang was addicted to games when he was a child, he could stay in the arcade hall Internet café for a day without eating, or just buy a few cents of steamed buns to cope with the past, and he didn't have to care about such a trivial matter as eating compared to playing games. Even if you become a big anchor with a monthly income of one million, aren't you busy eating instant noodles live and often?
Sister Hua immediately said to Wang Qiang: "Chief, this tree hole is very wide and deep and warm, we can live here, and it is convenient to hide the bear meat in it." We'll also need to collect a lot of firewood for the winter, as well as some stout logs to block the hole and keep the beasts out of the night. ”
Very good, very self-motivated. Wang Qiang said with satisfaction: "No problem, just do it!" By the way, what kind of tree is this? ”
Sister Hua was puzzled: "I don't know, I haven't seen it." ”
Even prehistoric humans have never seen this tree? How rare is this? Wang Qiang had to order: "Then you guys are busy first." ”
So the women began to divide up and get busy, and Wang Qiang also went into the bear cave under the tree to check. At this time, the poisonous smoke in the bear cave has dissipated, and the cave is full of large tree roots and whiskers exposed to the soil, and moss and stones mixed in the soil can be seen everywhere, and then I feel very relaxed.
Wang Qiang spit out a mouthful of saliva on the roots, then lay on the ground to observe carefully, and saw that there were tiny bubbles in the saliva.
This once again confirmed Wang Qiang's judgment that the roots of this tree can produce a lot of oxygen. Oxygen is certainly the source of life, but an excess of it is not a good thing. Perhaps this also explains why there is no tree around the tree, and all the oxygen that has penetrated into the soil has "fattened to death".
As a super player, Wang Qiang certainly knows that this tree is of great value, but he is not a botanist, how to develop it? At present, the only use that can be thought of is to let this natural oxygen injector deliver oxygen to the bear. Wang Qiang now only hates reading less textbooks. However, what is the difference between a person who knows anything and a hanging, and the highest difficulty of playing a fart, so you have to calm down.
……
As night fell, there was already a frequented movement of blood-smelling beasts around the woods, and the women blocked the entrance to the cave with mounds of earth and thick branches. Ah Duo volunteered to light a bonfire to guard the entrance of the cave, and as long as there was a fierce beast outside digging into the earth, Ah Duo would stab out of the earth hole with a spear.
A blazing bonfire was already lit in the depths of the tree hole, and the women who had been tired for three days could finally eat and sleep warmly.
If it was in the previous game, this kind of scene of being in the same hole with all the women must be a fragrant harem full of warm thoughts and desires, but the reality is that they have nothing to do with incense at all. As a super player, Wang Qiang will not think about those messy things stupidly, and now Wang Qiang is thinking about the future of the tribe.
First of all, there is the problem of hostile tribes, which are not two days away, but can also be a day away, which is a very dangerous distance. From the perspective of the game's common sense, as the most difficult opening, it seems unlikely that it will develop peacefully without being pursued by hostile tribes. However, it is such a cold winter, and the hostile tribes are so vengeful to hunt and kill?
Wang Qiang began to ask Sister Hua about the specific situation: "Where is the tribe that attacked us?" How many people are there? ”
Sister Hua said blankly: "I only know that there are people on the other side of the river, and we can see them from a distance when we catch fish and drink water by the river, but I don't know where they live and how many people there are." ”
Wang Qiang frowned: "They took advantage of the freezing of the river to attack?" ”
Sister Hua shook her head blankly: "I don't know, we know that they have been for many years, and they have never come over......"
Speaking of this, Sister Hua's face became frightened: "By the way, that night we heard a very terrible sound, as if there were many deer running, but the sound was much louder than that of deer, it should be the sound of hooves!" ”
The sound of hooves? Wang Qiang was shocked: "Horse? ”
Sister Hua was surprised: "What is a horse?" ”
Wang Qiang was also stunned: "It's a terrible thing......"
Horses are certainly not scary, what is scary is the race of horseback riding! Wang Qiang couldn't believe that this most difficult start was against a nomadic race! Can't imagine humans taming horses during the Ice Age? If the other party really has a horse, it is less than half a day's distance!
As a super player, Wang Qiang certainly knows how terrifying cavalry is, Wang Qiang is a master of cavalry in many games, and it is a stage for high-end players to show off their tactics. In the history of human warfare, Mongolia is undoubtedly the pinnacle of cavalry, and Mongolia's cavalry tactics have reference significance even in the era of tank armor.
Although there are all kinds of painful discussions on many entertainment forums about "how to use infantry to deal with cavalry", they have also come up with various "traps", "horse rejection", "tripping horses", "spear infantry on the periphery, crossbowmen in the inside", and even "ground hob cutting horses' legs" and other Qingqi tactics, well, what they say is what they say.
But one thing is clear, nomads are certainly cavalry, but cavalry is not equal to nomads. For ordinary countries, cavalry is a war machine that burns money, and even a lot of corruption breeds because of the burning of logistics to accelerate the demise of a country. But for nomads, it is "a soldier who grew up on horseback without logistics or military salary", and this terrifying strategic ability is simply an almost unsolvable war plug-in in the era of cold weapons!
China's thousands of years of history is basically the history of the struggle between the farming people and the nomadic people, even if the Ming Dynasty has entered the age of firearms, but also gave birth to the most high-end "three-eyed firearms" firearm cavalry "Guanning Iron Cavalry" of that era, but still can not save the Ming Dynasty rotting to the roots, the helplessness during this period is indescribable.
Well, calm down! The nomads in prehistoric times certainly did not have horse pedals, did not have the high technology of riding and archery, and most of the bows were children's toys, and there was still a solution. It's really not good.,You can still find a way to migrate.,Playing difficult games by yourself, you're often chased all over the map.。
Wang Qiang came back to his senses and asked, "Then what else is there around our tribe?" ”
Sister Hua was a little confused: "Around? There are fruit forests and melon fields around our tribe, and our women's daily work is to pick fruits, and in autumn, the men go to the river to catch fish, and if there are deer in the forest, they go to surround the deer......"
Wang Qiang's brows furrowed wildly when he heard this: "You only know the forest near your home and the big river in front of you?" Haven't been further afield? ”
Sister Hua shook her head and said: "We must go back to the tribe before dark, it is very dangerous at night, those fanged tigers can run behind people and bite their throats at night without making a sound." We've been here for the furthest we've ever traveled. ”
Tusk? Saber-toothed tiger? I'll go to it, sunrise and sunset, and return to guard these few acres of three-point forest, and I don't have any sense of distress at all? Is the tribe's vision only half a day's away? Well, the map is all black, and it's finally a normal start.
Seeing that Sister Hua was sleepy and tired, Wang Qiang didn't ask more and let her rest, after all, she was the hardest one.
Wang Qiang fell into deep thought again. The most important thing now is to explore the map, even a rookie knows the importance of opening a map, otherwise he doesn't even know where to run.
The problem is, this is not the computer game that I used to play, the game is from the perspective of God, and the player will know the situation immediately where a few pathfinder minions go. Now it's a reality, and someone has to be sent to report back and forth. And report this kind of thing clearly by mouth? You still have to find the way yourself!
Discover the way yourself!? I'll it!
For an abandoned house like Wang Qiang, relying on two legs to walk in the ice and snow at minus degrees, even if he is not killed by the beast, he has to exhaust himself and freeze to death.
One of the biggest questions is, where is the direction of pathfinding? There is no doubt that even rookies know that they should first find out the situation of the hostile tribe, whether the other party has horses or not, and how many people there are. But what if the other party finds out? That is the end of the game, and Wang Qiang cannot run past prehistoric humans.
But what if the other party doesn't have a horse? There are only a dozen women in themselves, and it is impossible to turn the tables by force, and it is the same whether the other party has a horse or not. So the only way to avoid their distant migration? If you encounter a herd of beasts or other unfriendly primitive tribes on the way to migration, it will be over! Even if you don't encounter anything, it's freezing and snowy, where to sleep at night? Didn't you freeze to death?
Or do you just stay in this warm earth cave with oxygen and wait and see what happens? What if you can't hide it? Or do you want to play tunnel warfare? Digging traps in the woods? What do you dig with? I don't have any tools, so I continue to burn wood and melt ice with both hands? Will the smoke from the burning of wood attract others?
Countless questions came one after another, and Wang Qiang's brain was a mess! What is the highest difficulty? In the final analysis, there is no combat effectiveness for self-preservation, which is difficult! What's even more difficult is that you choose to start the winter because you don't want to meet an enemy? As a result, there is still a great possibility of encountering enemies, so what's the point of choosing winter for yourself? Instead, he confined himself to freezing.
Well, the first day is just to solve the problem of eating and fatigue, the amount of information is too little, or wait until tomorrow dawn to come out and search the surrounding woods.
Wang Qiang, who had no clue and was tired for a day, finally fell asleep beside the fire unable to bear it.
