Chapter 15: Formation
After a failed attempt to kill Red and flee back to the clan alone, Shet knew that Red would not let him and the Panser clan go, and that the Wolf clan would attack them when the next bright age arrived.
He could only report everything truthfully to the patriarch's father, and the angry patriarch Panser of course taught this unsuccessful son a hard lesson.
But being angry is angry, and if your son is in trouble, the father still has to find a way to deal with him.
Panser patriarch Sean is also an old and cunning figure, he and Red's father have fought for more than ten years, and basically never take advantage of it.
I didn't expect my son to be so useless, and he was bullied by Rhett to death.
He and Shet spoke in unison, and when they reported to the clan elders, they insisted that Red and Green had attacked them in the forest.
They killed four Pansher warriors, nearly killed Shet, and threatened to teach the Pansher clan a lesson.
The elders were furious, but they also knew that the strength of the Wolf tribe was far superior to their own.
The last time the two tribes fought a tribal war for the hunting grounds by the river, the Panther tribe lost.
Not only did the Panser tribe lose the hunting ground, but they also paid the price of ten women in exchange for the current truce, which was such a great shame that all the men of the Panser tribe did not dare to forget it.
If you want to compete with the Wolf tribe, you must seek foreign help.
Although two tribes are at war, it is humiliating for one of them to seek foreign aid, but it is much better than cutting the flesh after losing the battle, and once the war is won, the cost of seeking foreign aid can be fully repaid with the spoils of victory.
Sean was still very experienced, and after obtaining the consent and authorization of the elders, he personally led people to the equally powerful Bell tribe nearby to seek assistance.
The people of the Bell tribe are like their war pets, a little more stupid and greedy than the people of other tribes.
After hearing Sean's intentions, their elders readily agreed to Sean's request, agreeing to form an alliance with the Panther tribe and send reinforcements to help the Panther tribe fight the Wolf tribe.
However, their elders also took the opportunity to blackmail Sean fiercely, twenty women who can give birth are the basic conditions, and there are many other benefits.
And when sending reinforcements, they also fought a little ambush, they did not send the tribe's most elite warriors and war pets, but sent out seven captive-bred war pets, as well as one hundred and fifty warriors the size of brown bears.
The two teams confronted each other in the open space in front of the wall, and the number of both sides was surprisingly the same, both of them were three hundred and fifty warriors, all of whom were the strength of their respective tribes.
Except for a few who were guarding the arrow tower, all the forces of the Panser tribe were now dispatched, and they only gathered two hundred warriors, plus the one hundred and fifty big men of the Bell tribe, the number was as many as the Wolf tribe.
Their number of war pets is also about the same, with more than twenty black panthers and seven huge brown bears.
After the scene is over, all that remains is fighting.
Red rallied the three hundred and fifty warriors tightly together and condensed them into a circle, and all the war pets wandered outside the circle.
The idea for this formation came from Red's perception of the caravan camp being surrounded by those ox carts, specifically for defense.
He kept Grimm and other archers firmly in the center of the line, so that they could calm down and focus on archery.
The warriors of the Bell tribe never use their brains in battle, and they don't seem to have that kind of thing.
Most of them use heavy stone rods and thick animal bones, which are also very powerful in combination with their burly size.
The warriors of the Panser tribe were similar to those of the Wolf tribe, wielding spears and being of similar size, much more agile than the Bell tribesmen.
They are fighting at home, naturally they can't be like the people of the Wolf tribe, they must launch an attack and teach these wolf tribe fanatics a good lesson.
The warriors of the Bell tribe would not obey the command of Sean and Shet, they just formed a chaotic formation by themselves and rushed to the circle formation of the Wolf tribe.
Seven behemoth-like brown bears, under the shouting of their masters, reluctantly rushed to the front of the team.
The Panser tribe was much more cunning, and they shouted loudly under the leadership of Sean and Shet, creating a huge momentum, but in fact they were not very fast, and they happened to be slightly behind the Bell tribe's ranks.
Their war pet, the Black Panthers, also circled the Wolf clan's battle formation from all directions, but naturally they were greeted by the Steppenwolf pack led by Bass.
Although they have become the war pets of humans, when it comes to fighting, the Steppenwolves still retain their instincts and like wolf pack tactics.
It was only at this time that Red revealed his superiority as the head of the clan, and although the extra Bell clan disrupted his plans, he was unfazed.
He asked all the warriors to hold steady, not to panic, and to follow his orders.
All the warriors standing on the outskirts of the circle were to stick their spears diagonally into the ground, the tips of their spears raised diagonally upwards at a forty-five-degree angle, and the hilts of their spears firmly planted into the ground.
This will help them resist the onslaught of the enemy, and use their spears to hold the enemy against the outside of the circle, preventing the enemy from breaking through.
The warriors in the inner circle must be ready to fill in at any time, and must not allow a gap in the circle.
Red asks the ten archers who wield the strongbow to be in charge of dealing with the brown bears, and to be sure to shoot them in the right spots, such as their noses and eyes.
The other archers are free to choose their targets, and if the opposing team also has archers, be sure to prioritize these archers.
Red is simply a genius in commanding operations, some of these things he arranged are passed down by elders, but more of them are a set of self-contained tactics that he has summarized and explored over the years as a patriarch and led the tribal warriors to fight everywhere.
Steppenwolf and the Panthers have pounced together, and although the Panthers are stronger and stronger than the Steppenwolf, the Steppenwolves have an excellent leader, and that is their wolf king, Bass.
When Red was an adult, he went to the prairie to hunt his first war pet, and the one he chose was the most powerful of the wolves that had just reached adulthood, which was Bass.
If Buzz hadn't become a war pet but had stayed among the steppe wolves, it was likely that he would have become the king of the steppe wolves.
Buzz not only has a physique far beyond the wolves, but also has a wisdom that other war pets do not have, and a wisdom that does not match the Steppenwolf, so it has long become the head wolf of all the Steppenwolf war pets in the Wolf tribe.
When it comes to battle, Red will rest assured that the war pets will be led by Bass, and he and all the war pet owners can deal with the enemy wholeheartedly.
