Chapter XXIV
Regardless of the caravan's records, Mary had another good thing, and as soon as Red returned home, she took out her leather armor like a treasure.
Red stroked the runes on the armor with his hand, he knew it was a good thing, much more beautiful than ordinary leather armor, he had seen caravan guards pass through, and it was said to have excellent defense.
Hearing that he had obtained it for free from the caravan with the token of his son Blue, he couldn't help but be full of curiosity about the caravan and the seed plan, but how could he possibly figure out why?
But for the next battle, this leather armor is undoubtedly an extra insurance, and for something that can enhance his own strength, Red will not refuse.
Because the caravan gave the tribe a great discount, almost every household of the Wolf tribe took out the things they had treasured for many years and exchanged them with the caravan, and they all gained a lot.
Before the New Year, the caravan left the tribal camp and embarked on a long journey, as usual.
As night came, all the tribes returned to their camps, the gates were tightly closed, and the warriors who took turns to watch the night had begun to patrol the gates and towers, carefully observing the surroundings.
This dark night and half a year are the same as the previous one, and the warriors of the Wolf tribe not only take turns to be on duty at night, but also to go home and work hard to reproduce the next generation.
Of course, the most important work is to gather and participate in the training led by Red, including more than thirty warriors who have just come of age, and the total number of warriors of the Wolf tribe has exceeded four hundred, reaching a historical high.
Because he got ten more strong bows, the team of archers led by Green grew day by day, and his long-range attack ability was greatly improved.
Red was busy rehearsing the defensive circle he had created, and given that the enemy might be unprecedentedly strong this time, everyone dared not be lazy and trained desperately, continuing the tradition of bloodshed in peacetime and life in wartime.
While practicing the defensive circle, Red also led them to start exercising their physical fitness, they would leave the camp every day and run outside collectively for a period of time, running wild in the dark, also to exercise the courage of the rookies.
A team of three hundred and fifty warriors, plus more than thirty war pets, although it was dark night, no animal dared to cause trouble.
In addition to practicing running and improving their physique, they also went to the forest to cut down many large trees and train their strength by carrying these logs, which is how the warriors of the Bell tribe developed great strength and strong physique.
With such a fulfilling day, it naturally feels like it passes quickly.
Two days before the night was about to pass and the light was about to come, Red and Green, after reporting to the Council of Elders, quietly left the camp with thirty of the best hunters in the tribe and headed out into the forests of the south.
The camp of the Bell tribe was at the other end of the forest about four days south of the forest south of the Wolf tribe, and the two tribes were separated by such a small forest.
When hunting in the forest, the warriors of both sides often clashed, and even fought desperately, and seven or eight times out of ten this kind of fighting, the Wolf tribe suffered.
Because the warriors of the Bell tribe are strong individually, and the war pets are also very powerful, once they encounter it, they will definitely suffer.
The last time the Bell tribe had sent hostages back to camp from the forest, Red had Green quietly follow.
Rhett's purpose was to confirm the path of the Bell tribe to and from the camp of the two tribes, after all, the passage of so many people was usually marked and a path was carved.
Green made his mark on this path, and Red and thirty good hunters are now walking on this path.
This forest is mostly tall coniferous forest, and in order to save time and reduce the distance, the strong and rude Bell tribesmen basically use their great strength to carve a straight path through the woods with heavy stone axes.
Red led the group out for two days, and greeted the alternation of night and light in the forest, and basically walked half the distance between the two tribes.
Red nodded to Green, "Let's start here, let's make some traps that are usually used to hunt wild beasts, but the size should be enlarged, this time the pit is not ordinary prey, but the warriors of the Bell tribe!"
This is also the way Rhett thought of taking precautions, and they would dig some one-person deep pits in the path they had to pass, and bury sharp wood at the bottom of the pits, with the pointed ends pointing upwards.
The trap is covered with a thin lid woven from twigs and sprinkled with rotten leaves, which are not visible from the outside.
Or connect a calf-height vine between two large trees, and in the dim woods, even during the day, you can't see the same color as the surrounding tree.
The vine is just a tripping trap that pulls a thick trunk off the top of its head and sweeps it across the side.
Rhett and Green made a lot of traps along the road with thirty good hunters, who would calculate the approximate camping ground of the Bell people and dig the traps.
They also set up ambushes along the streams where they might stop to drink water along the way, and they walked as they did for two days, and it took them three days to get back to camp.
After Red returned to the camp, he put all the soldiers on alert and prepared for battle, and sent a ten-member alert team to the direction of the forest every day to provide early warning to the camp.
In the forest, Green's war pets have little effect, but Green still releases the Hulk out for a few hours a day to observe the situation in the southern forests.
The witch doctor also took out several buckets of black, viscous liquid, and on one of them was a dead rat floating on it, and the rat was rotten and almost shapeless.
These liquids emit a foul smell, and the smell alone can smoke people to death.
The witch doctor had asked Green to take people into the forest to collect them, and he told Red that they were poisons, and he asked Red to have them smeared on the arrows of the arrows and the tips of the spears.
In this way, when fighting, as long as the arrow and spear tip cut any part of the enemy's body, as long as blood is seen, it will have an effect, which will make them itchy and fester, greatly reducing the enemy's combat effectiveness.
Of course, you should also be careful not to touch your own body, although there is an antidote, but the effect is not so fast.
This was the first time Red had heard of such a poison that could be applied to a weapon, and he felt that it was not a method that a warrior should use, but he was scolded by the witch doctor.
The Witch Doctor told him that history only remembers the final victor, regardless of how you became the victor, for the sake of the victory of the clan, in order to reduce the death of the clan warriors, why worry about the enemy?
Red quickly accepted the witch doctor's point of view, and he said the same to those warriors who were a little hesitant, if you don't kill the enemy, the enemy will take over your homeland and take over your women, so either the enemy will die or I will die.
