Chapter 16: Drumming
Ding Nuo looked at the wolf smoke rising from the tribal camp, and felt a little dissatisfied in his heart, the idea of hunting tiger wolf and jade snail was still not comprehensive enough. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 But in the face of more than a thousand barbarians, plus the sneak attackers lurking behind, relying on two hundred soldiers to achieve the current results is already very good, which is beyond his expectations.
In the past few days, Ding Nuo has been watching their actions over the tribe, from hunting tigers to boost morale, to bravely attacking in the face of strong enemies, and finally calmly ambushing and defeating the enemy, every step has made him very happy. Tiger Hunter Wolf and Jade Snail grow up quickly, but the foreign enemy is too strong, which is a non-war crime.
Looking at the chaotic scene of the tribal camp, Ding Nuo resisted the urge to make a move, and he would not save the tribe until the last moment of survival.
The tribe will have to go through a war of blood and fire to remind them of the cruelty of this world. "Although the country is big, the belligerent will perish, and although the world is peaceful, forgetting the war will be dangerous", this truth has been repeated over and over again in the history of China over the past 5,000 years.
The tribe is a little too comfortable. After the Tiger Hunter Wolf Yuluo led the troops to set out early in the morning, the camp did not have any precautions, and the spies of the Shigou tribe pretended to be merchants to come to trade, and quickly made the camp transparent. Less than two hours after their departure, the spies headed towards the Shigou tribe with the message.
Five hours later, Shi Gou forcibly recruited the fighting forces of the nearby tribes, and a force of more than 400 people marched quickly towards the Huaxia tribe. Fortunately, a citizen who was about to trade with the Quickgrass Tribe discovered this force, and as soon as he saw that the situation was wrong, he immediately ran back to the Huaxia tribe and spread the news to the tribe.
The wolf smoke was ignited, and the invaders were already less than an hour's walk away from the Huaxia tribe, and the remaining leaders of the tribe urgently summoned the tribesmen. However, the tribes are still left behind, and there are very few people who have received professional military training. Most of them just followed the tribal warriors during their leisure time, holding up bamboo spears and practicing a few assassination movements.
The troops of the Shigou tribe have all arrived at the foot of the camp and are about to attack as a team, and the people in the camp have not yet been fully assembled. Some squatted on the ground and wept, some hid in grass huts and refused to go out, and some looked around for hidden places in an attempt to hide.
Faced with the chaotic scene of the camp, the remaining leaders of the tribe were powerless. I had to bite the bullet and lead a part of the people to rely on the wooden fence of the camp to organize defense. And sent emissaries to the team of the Shigou tribe to try to stall for time.
However, the murderous Shi Gou did not give them a chance at all, and the messenger was killed before he could finish speaking, and Shi Gou began to attack with a wave of his hand.
Relying on the stubborn defense of the wooden fence, in the face of more and more enemies rushing into the camp, defeat seemed imminent. Screams and screams filled the air over the camp, and the despair made it impossible to breathe.
Shi Gou stared at the people who were still dying and laughed arrogantly, pointed at them and shouted, "Surrender quickly, or we will kill you all when we break through the gate of the camp." Hahaha....."
The rest of Shigou's troops shouted along with his words: "Kill them, kill them!" ”
Their voices are like the crows of crows, which are creepy and flustered.
In the thatched hut of the central leader of the tribe, Ji Shui's family lay on the bed weakly, and at this time, the thick animal skin lost its former warmth like a thick wall of ice and snow pressing on him. Her whole body was chills and trembling, and the cries and screams in the camp made her heart beat violently.
The memories of the past resurfaced in front of me, those relatives and friends who had long forgotten their looks, and the old people who had died in the tribe, appeared in front of me one by one. The war in my childhood was not missed at all, and it turned back to my mind again.
"Grandma, grandma, don't sleep, you have a lot of blood on your body, the bad guys are coming, those jackals are coming to eat us. Don't sleep, wake up and let's go. Ji Shui shook his mother, who was lying on the ground bleeding, and said anxiously.
The neighbor's aunt in the distance walked quickly and stretched out her hand, pulling herself away with a strong force, only to see the neighbor's aunt shouting: "Hurry up, your grandma is dead, come with me!" ”
Following the neighbor's aunt and running out of the grass hut in a daze, there were brothers and sisters who used to dote on the ground of the camp, and their faces were covered with blood. "Don't look at it, it's all dead, come with me."
On this day, she understood what death was.
Is the Horde dying now? Grandma, brother and sister, god....
I don't want to die, I can't die, and the tribe can't die! The heart was beating faster and faster, and the strength of the past seemed to be slowly returning to his body little by little. She sat up stiffly, stared at the maid beside the bed, and said, "Carry me out, carry me to the war drums." ”
The maid looked at Ji Shuishi in panic, at a loss, and shook her head nervously.
Ji Shuishi repeated sternly: "Quick! Carry me over! "While I still have the strength, I can't die, I can't die yet.
The maid hurriedly and carefully carried Ji Shui's back out of the grass hut, and the desperate people outside the house were full of squatting on the ground holding their heads and crying, and no one saw them.
Come to a high platform in the center of the tribe with a half-human height drum on it. Ji Shuishi patted the maid and motioned for her to come down, and reluctantly stood up for a while, dizzy, and his body shook Ji Shuishi almost fell to the ground again.
She picked up two stick bones and struck the drum twice with all her might, and boom! Boom! The sound of majestic drums resounded throughout the camp. At this time, the eyes of all the people of the Huaxia tribe turned to the high platform and found that the old mother actually got up. Even the attention of some people from the Shigou tribe was attracted to it, and they were shocked that the Ji Shui clan was not dead.
Ji Shuishi took a deep breath, she felt that she was full of strength as if she had returned to her youth, raised her right hand and shouted: "Raise the bamboo spear!" Fight! ”
Then, Ji Shuishi waved the bone stick in his hand, and the uplifting drum sounded, and the people who were still crying felt a stream of blood flowing, and the courage made them pick up the bamboo spear and run to the camp defense line.
"Mother, the gods will protect us. Kill, kill, kill! "The camp line regained the initiative. Everyone in Shigou's troops was afraid, and looked at Ji Shuishi who was beating the war drums in confusion, why, you are so old and weak, why don't you fall down, go to death quickly.
The people on the camp defense line were like mad demons who still held the bamboo spear firmly even if they were killed, and refused to fall, and in the blink of an eye, someone else replaced him, carrying the bamboo spear to fill the position, while shouting "Kill the enemy!" Fight the enemy! Fight the enemy! "Bian stabbed the enemy mercilessly with a bamboo spear.
The beating of war drums did not stop for a moment, five minutes, ten minutes, half an hour, an hour.....
Suddenly, the same drum sounded behind the Shigou tribe, and the tiger hunting wolf caught up, his eyes were red, like a demon crawling back to the world in hell. Stab the enemies in front of you one by one, the bamboo spear is broken, pick up the stone axe, the stone axe is broken, pick up the wooden stick, and rush into the stone hook troops, no one can stop them wherever they go.
The battle subsided, and huge cheers erupted inside and outside the camp, "Huaxia Wansheng!" Huaxia Wansheng! Huaxia Wansheng! ”
At this time, the drumming on the high platform stopped abruptly, Ji Shui's body was crooked, holding the bone stick in his hand, and he fell on the stage, breathing a long sigh of relief. It's good that I can die, and the tribe doesn't have to die......
Ding Nuo has been by her side since Ji Shui's drumming, looking at her with sour eyes.
"Your Excellency, your Excellency, this person's soul can be made into soul crystals, and it can be sold for a good price in the plane exchange, is it..."
"Shut up and give her a decent ending."
"As you wish, Commander."
The dark clouds broke through, and the system generated a pillar of light to shine on Ji Shui's body, and a phantom that was exactly the same as Ji Shui's slowly rose into the sky. The people of the tribe looked at her in amazement and reverence, and fell to their knees, their tears no longer stopping, and their sorrowful cries came and went.
Eventually, the phantom of the Himesui clan disappeared into the sky, and the pillar of light went out. And the tiger hunting wolf could no longer hold on, collapsed and fell to the ground....
