Chapter 282: Rainforest Walk
More than ten days later, Ganba Tusi warmly entertained Renault and his party, not enthusiastic, not good, such a large convoy, thousands of people, Ganba Tusi's family has a big business, and can not drill the rain forest like those untouchables, can only warmly entertain guests.
In the Nanzhang area, unfamiliar guests, generally do not entertain, Nanzhang people say to change their faces, one moment you are still a guest, the next moment you can draw a knife to kill the entire Tusi cottage.
The Renault team is different, people don't have to play with changing their faces at all, as long as they have the heart, they can directly bulldoze the dry toast, dare not be enthusiastic?
Fortunately, Renault would not have such a mind, a broken earth village, also embarrassed to be called a 'city'? Renault only spent 20 minutes walking around, and the length of Ganba Tusi City was no more than 800 meters, which was a medium-sized village.
Here, more than 1,000 people gathered, and it is the largest toast within a radius of 300 miles. In addition to the residents in Tusi City, Ganba Tusi also manages the seventy-two villages of Jiuxiang and thousands of residents, which can be regarded as an overlord.
Since the day he became the Tusi, he had never seen such a large convoy, thousands of people entered the Nanzhang rainforest together, and only a dozen forces in the entire Nanzhang could do it if they had this strength, and it was an absolute big deal.
In the entire Tusi City, only Ganba Tusi, a young old man in his early thirties who looked like a little man in his fifties, wore a dress made of silk and sewed a small piece of silk on his chest, which, according to Ruan Ling, was a 'dress' that Tusi would only wear on formal occasions.
Tusi's wives, the civil and military ministers around him, and only the important ministers and concubines can put linen clothes, and the others are mostly a piece of animal skin, or simply clothes woven from leaves and feathers.
I've seen Ganba Toast, Renault's whole person is not good, what the hell is this, the Ganba Toast in front of him, just like this bear, is actually a hegemon, within 300 miles, a real power person.
Under the people's hands, there are a full eighty armed soldiers, and among the more than a dozen Tusi in the vicinity, they all belong to the existence of super combat power.
Is Nanzhang weak?
Anyway, it is not strong, and in the face of the Great Chu Xiong Army, there is absolutely no courage to dare to fight head-on, but as long as you enter the rainforest, the eighty warriors in front of you can kill hundreds of the regular army of Great Chu.
When the crown prince was in power, he once sent an army of 100,000 to attack Nanzhang, but all of them fell into it, and less than 1,000 people escaped in the end. It is said that they seldom see where the enemy is, except because of disease, miasma, poisonous snakes, traps, poisonous insects......
Anyway, tired by the natural environment, most of the dead and wounded, and the other half died at the hands of these natives who didn't even have clothes. They lay on trees, buried in dead leaves, and potential rivers, and used bamboo guns, wooden spears, animal teeth, stones and other weapons in their hands to kill tens of thousands of regular soldiers of Great Chu in a year and a half.
It was precisely because of that failure that the prince came up with the idea of establishing a rainforest legion, and poured the whole country into creating an invincible rainforest legion.
Due to the vast land and sparsely populated people, there are not many battles between the toasts, except for places with special resources, no one will fight because of the territory, there are many rainforests, and you can occupy whatever you want.
A large part of the reason for the war between the toasts is for women, and there is also face.
Listening to Ruan Ling talk about the reason for the Tusi War, Renaud couldn't help but glance at the concubine next to Ganba Tusi, who was only one meter five tall, with dark skin, thin face, high cheekbones, and dark teeth, for such a woman, would it cause a war?
Rejected the kindness of Ganba Tusi, and sent back the black concubine he had seen, Renault still lived in the RV, where people lived in a bamboo building, and a blade of grass was lit underneath, emitting a thick choking smoke all day long, this smoke can drive away poisonous snakes, poisonous insects, mosquitoes and ants, without this thing, people can't work at all.
Along the way, Renault has also used it, and he can't stand the smoke, so he prepares insect repellent cream for the team members, the materials used are similar, but the taste is much better, but it is more troublesome, every six hours, you need to apply foam all over the body.
Renaud himself doesn't have to be so troublesome, he has a martial soul on his body, as long as he releases a martial soul, whether it is poison or mosquitoes, he can't get close, which makes Huya envious.
In order to reduce casualties, Renault issued several death orders, at any time, it was not allowed to drink raw water, not only for people, but also for horses.
Nanzhang is too hot, not to mention iron armor, even leather armor can't be worn. Renault remembered the famous Zhuge Liang in history, and ordered people to find a large number of rattan to make rattan armor, which did not need to fit, just like the protective clothing on the rugby player, which was wider and better, breathable and ventilated.
A large amount of cordyceps repellent is added to the vine beetle, and it can be smoked with medicine for a quarter of an hour every morning and evening, which can have a very good anti-snake and insect effect.
It's a pity that there is no tung oil here, if you brush the tung oil a few times, the defense of the rattan armor will be greatly improved, and it can also be waterproof, and even like the rattan armor soldiers, sit on the rattan armor to cross the river.
All the planes are grounded, and if you want to fly, you can open up an airfield first, but it is troublesome to land, there is rainforest everywhere, and there is no place to land.
Although the planes cannot take off, the black fur is like a fish in water here, carrying air riders, flying freely in the sky, and often fighting birds in the rainforest.
The black-haired knight could not be equipped with bombs, but could only carry a knife, a short bow, and a pot of arrows.
When there are flocks of black-haired knights, when they are all over the rainforest, all the birds have to flee for their lives, and the black-haired knights themselves are good at fighting, plus the knight's bow and arrow. Therefore, every day the convoy can eat all kinds of bird meat.
In the next two months, Renault had a very difficult time, and it was too terrible to rush in the rainforest, especially with more than 2,000 carts, which were slower than walking, getting up early and greedy every day, and constantly moving forward, and only walked 2,500 miles in two months.
"Don't worry, sir, this kind of march is very common in the rainforest, in fact, there are several avenues in Nanzhang, which can be opened to traffic, and the nearest avenue is not far from us, and we should be able to see it in another month. Ruan Ling saw that Renault was unhappy, and comforted her from time to time.
No wonder the merchants refused to take the Western Front, even if there were no Nanzhao, Cang'er, and Jinchuan's grandsons, who would sell the goods they brought here? Along the way, Renault saw a variety of toasts, large and small, most of which were similar to the situation of Ganba Toast, and even if Renault wanted to barter, there was nothing to exchange.
This gang of toasts, one day knows that they will eat and wait for death, and they won't even dry the fruit. There are only birds, fish, and fruits on the table, and if you occasionally eat a bite of crocodile meat, it will be a supreme delicacy.
Ruan Ling's words were obviously comforting Renault, there was an accurate ruler on the God of Wealth, and Renault knew that it would take at least a month and a half to reach that so-called road.
"Quick, grab it, don't let them run. Outside the RV, there was a shouting of Gai Yong, during this time, not only Renault was uncomfortable, but the atmosphere of the entire team was not very good, just like sailing in the sea for a long time, people will have anxiety.
When you first see the rainforest, you will be in a good mood, endless green, relaxed, after going deep into the rainforest, it is humid and muggy, and the rain is pouring down, even if it is sunny, you can see the canopy of trees when you look up, and you can't see the sun for a few months, what kind of mood do you say.
In addition to being in a bad mood, the food is also poor, no one has eaten the fruit now, but it is not okay not to eat the fruit, most of the food replenished in Dingjun City has been consumed, and even a third of the dried meat has been eaten.
In order to eat fresh, the people in the convoy showed their talents, went up to the trees to dig eggs, shot birds with bows and crossbows, caught snakes among the trees, and all living creatures, in addition to mosquitoes, even termites, scorpions, and centipedes were dared to eat.
After a while, Huya happily got into the RV: "Sir, General Gai Yong hunted a group of earth beasts, and I heard Ruan Ling say that it is a rare delicacy, and you can fight the tooth sacrifice today." ”
Renaud smiled and nodded, fortunately he brought the rainforest relics, if it weren't for them, the casualties after entering the rainforest would have increased tenfold, with their guidance, you can avoid many dangers, and you can also distinguish edible things.
Don't look at the many plants in the rainforest, the number of wild beasts is also a lot, but most of them are inedible, many are poisonous, and the toxicity is extremely strong, if you accidentally eat something poisonous, do not wait to take the life-saving pill, you can die within a few dozen breaths.
Along the way, Renault collected a large amount of poison and prepared to study whether it could be used on the battlefield. The result is very bad, most of the poisons, whether they are plant or animal poisons, after a few days, will lose their toxicity, and there are only a few kinds of poisons that can be stored for a long time, and the number is also scarce.
"Sir, the master of the altar asks to see you. "There was the sound of ink incense outside.
"Please come in. Renault said.
Zhang Tan happily got into the RV, still holding a long iron pipe in his hand. Seeing the iron pipe, Renault's eyes lit up, it's been almost a year, and Zhang Tan finally finished it.
"Sir, this time it really happened. ”
"I'll see. Renault hurriedly picked up the iron pipe, it was very heavy, at least seven or eight catties, the wall of the pipe was very thick, smooth and clean, and there was not a trace of burrs. Looking out of the window, there are six spiral rifling lines on the inner wall of the iron pipe, and the inner wall is also polished and smooth.
"Have you tried it?" asked Renault, he didn't know much about ancient gunpowder weapons, only their shapes, and if he really wanted to make them, he had to rely on a craftsman like Zhang Tan.
said that it was a divine craftsman, in Renault's opinion, the five levels of pincers on the earth were stronger than him, but here is Da Chu, and the craftsmanship can reach the level of Zhangtan, and the entire Da Chu can't pick out a few.
The biggest problem is that the materials are not up to par, and the processing technology is also difficult, when he was in Los Angeles, Renault proposed to make a gun barrel, and until now, he has come up with a finished product that looks good.
In this process, Zhang Tan failed countless times, and also came up with several products that could be used. For example, the fire gun on the Renault body, thickened the wall tube, shortened the barrel, did not draw rifling.
In fact, such a firearm has another name on the earth, commonly known as a troll, which has good power at close range, but it is a little farther away, and it is useless.
