Chapter 31: Push
Hearing that the new chief was going to lead the way and go on a crusade against the cannibalistic tribe, the strong woman shook her head into a rattle.
Tang Zheng's eyes swept over, and the natives all refused with a frightened face, obviously frightened.
"I don't give you some big sticks, I don't know how good I am!" After the slaves were full, Tang Zheng made them line up, knelt on the ground, and then took a whip made of animal tendon and leather, and whipped them fiercely.
Animal skins are very valuable, so these indigenous women are very thinly dressed, they can't cover their breasts at all, and the roots of their thighs are also exposed to the eyes of newcomers from time to time, but no one is interested in them, not to mention the smell of not bathing all year round, the color of the skin and the appearance of primitive people alone make people unappetizing.
"And now? With or without a belt? Looking at the strong woman's fleshy back, Tang Zheng threw the whip to Fang Zhiwen, "You come and smoke." ”
"Lead the way, everything is up to the chief!" The strong woman hesitated, but chose to compromise.
"Very well, remember, I am the chief, my orders are everything!" Tang Zheng stood in front of a child and decided to start with them, those adults, it is impossible to transform, "Follow me, you can eat and drink enough, and kill all the enemies who bully you." ”
"Willing to die for you, my chief!" The child climbed down and kissed Tang Zheng's shoes.
"Good, let's eat!" Tang Zheng threw a peeled sugar cube to the child, and the little guy immediately stuffed it into his mouth, so sweet that his soul was about to go out of his body.
The remaining five children pounced and rushed to kiss Tang Zheng's shoes.
After more than a day of long travel, Tang Zheng was not idle, asking for information.
There are more than a dozen large tribes in this grassland, numbering more than a thousand, a few hundred in the medium and many in the small.
In the Great Horde, there is a type of shaman who can use herbs and bone meal to unleash witchcraft, even the strongest tactics. None of them can resist them.
"There is a big tribe near your tribe? So why wasn't it annexed? Bai Xia felt that the woman was lying.
"We will make offerings every month to avoid war!" The woman's expression was gloomy, "It's a pity that those medium-sized tribes don't, they need population, food, and so on to resist the extortion of large tribes, as well as the losses caused. ”
"Is this still primitive? It's too smart, isn't it? If a small tribe is annexed. Instead, it is better to feed a larger population, rather than directly ask for supplies and use the force to deal with medium-sized tribes that threaten them. Shen Jiashu sighed, "It seems that we are in big trouble." ”
"Isn't the bigger the population, the better?" Xie Yundan was puzzled.
"The adult population is the most important, children and women are actually a burden, and there is no shortage of people in large tribes, plus the lack of materials, there must be a balance point, and exceeding it is a burden. I think if they die soldiers, they will definitely be replenished from the small tribe. "Shen Jiashu is indeed not a fool who does not learn and has no skills, so Sun Guofeng can't answer.
"You don't have to kill your own warriors at all, just coerce those small tribes to fight for themselves, Rome and Mongolia have done this!" Fang Zhiwen is still not used to beating people, and sees the natives compromise. Breathe a sigh of relief.
"How many of you became slaves? If I ask you to come forward, can I make them rebel? Tang Zheng saw that some nouns were incomprehensible, so he patiently explained.
"Yes!" The woman was excited, compared to a slave, it was easier to be Tang Zheng's people, no matter how bad it was, it would not be when there was a shortage of food. Be eaten.
On the afternoon of the third day, the team arrived at their destination, and looking at the gathering place that occupied the size of two football fields, the newcomers' hearts were heavy.
It was a fortified camp. A ten-meter-high watchtower is built on all sides of a giant wooden tower, on which are natives carrying bone knives and bows and arrows.
The camp was surrounded by a five-metre-high wall made of stones, and there was a trench outside that was filled with rainwater and kept some fish with fangs, which could be used to bite enemies who fell into the moat during battle, and to be used as food when there was a shortage of food.
"This is two hundred warriors? I think it's doubled again, it's more! Sun Guofeng cursed, "You should be stupid!" ”
"It was indeed two hundred who attacked us before!" The woman was frightened.
"Have you been to this tribe before? Is the defense so strong? Tang Zheng felt that the situation might be off.
"I've been here, and it makes no difference." The woman looked carefully and nodded affirmatively, "Chief, if you can't win the battle, let's go, find a remote place to recuperate, and wait for enough warriors to take revenge." ”
"Raw Nima!" Thinking about the scene of rolling the sheets with these natives, Sun Guofeng was cold.
"Don't look down on us, in just ten years, we can have two hundred warriors!" A woman retorts, feeling that fertility is insulted, and in the eyes of primitive people, their task is to produce more and more powerful warriors.
"Regiment commander, just our people, before they can rush to the drawbridge, they will be killed." Sun Guofeng looked at this camp that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and sighed, "Even if you attack and open the gate of the village, we won't be able to eat, the number of people is too small." ”
"Let's attack those small tribes first, fight them one by one, and when we have enough soldiers, we will attack again." Gao Shuang likes to play real-time strategy games, and he is the best at accumulating resources.
"You think it's a computer game, huh? Can you collect resources with just a few clicks? Those adult warriors will resist, they will die in battle, and the most will inevitably be women and children, and when you gather many small tribes, what will you use to feed them? If you don't have enough food or clothing, they will rebel before you attack here! Fang Zhiwen glanced at Sun Guofeng, "There is another question, these are all other people's 'cows', if you rob them, may those big tribes not react?" Directly send troops to kill you. ”
"Look, the drawbridge is down." Xie Yundan was very nervous after a while, "It won't be to trouble us, right?" ”
"You're right, get out!" Tang Zheng urged the newcomers, the eyes of the indigenous guards were good, and when they saw these uninvited guests hiding a hundred meters away, they immediately warned them.
The drawbridge was lowered, and the first to burst out were more than twenty hounds as large as calves, barking wildly, and behind them were native warriors riding a kind of tall wild horses, two hundred in number, whistling like a gale.
", the cavalry has it, it's still a hairy game!" Sun Guofeng shouted, "Ten times as many infantry can't stop them." ”
The Mustang's ribs were covered with animal skin sacs, which were stuffed with wooden javelins, and the warriors drew them, twisted their waists and swinged their arms, and shot at the survivors.
Boom, boom, the native's arm strength was very strong, and the javelin, like a crossbow, was nailed into the ground almost in the blink of an eye.
Tong Li was pushed to the back by a javelin, fell to the ground, and if she wasn't wearing a protective suit, she would have hung up, Tang Zheng's new slave was not so lucky, and two of them died in one round of projection.
"it!" Tang Zheng was furious, he was originally worried that this tribe would be occupied by other conquerors, and he wanted to retain his strength, but now he couldn't take care of it, and directly launched the gravity abyss and blocked the javelin.
"Female gunner, come out!"
With Tang Zheng's angry shout, three female gunners appeared beside him, dressed in military uniforms, stepping on the 88 mm caliber gun.
"Shoot!"
The female gunner tugged at the drawstring, and a cloud of white smoke erupted from the muzzle of the gun, and the round cannonball, with a whistle that tore through the air, first hit a native, then bounced off and rolled out again, crushing a corridor of flesh and blood.
"Is there a flowering bomb? Use that! "The female musketeers also came out, lined up and fired a salvo.
"So hard?" Shen Jiashu was stunned, the natives who were hit by the cannonballs all vomited blood, but they did not die, they struggled to get up, and continued to charge, although the mounts were dead, but their speed was still not slow.
"Retreat!" Tang Zheng pulled out his sword from Sophie's waist, and the three cannons couldn't suppress these rough-skinned natives at all.
Ten meters, five meters, the two sides clash with each other!
A cannonball slammed into a native's face, and because it was too close, it cut off its head this time, and the blood rained down with the breeze.
"General!" Tang Zheng threw the thin sword in his hand, nailed it into the eye socket of a native, followed the splitter to dodge the general's longbow, and took out four arrows in his right hand and put them on the bowstring.
Gravitational suppression increases again.
The natives turned into slow motion, Tang Zheng opened his bow, and the arrow was as fast as a meteor, shooting towards their heads.
One wave, two waves, three waves, Tang Zheng was stunned alone, spilling a rain of arrows, and the first one was the native who was shot out of the hedgehog shape.
The guns rang out, and the female musketeers had no shots, but unfortunately the power was a little less, and each of these natives had first-order strength.
Tang Zheng jumped and strangled the neck of a native with a bowstring, and when he ripped him off the war horse, he cut his throat.
The gunners vanished, a metal barrier appeared in the sky, and with the click of machinery, a railgun spawned, heading for the gathering place.
There was no smoke and blood, and everything in the attack route was vaporized, leaving only a deep ravine.
The Kirov airship descended, but because of Tang Zheng's order, he did not drop depth charges, otherwise he wouldn't want to catch a single slave, and all of them would be turned into minced meat.
A five-meter-high mecha was dropped, and white parachutes opened in mid-air, like pure mushrooms.
Bang, bang, the mecha landed and immediately fired at the cavalry, the huge iron fist slammed into their bodies, directly knocking them away, and as for the javelins that were projected, they couldn't even wipe out a spark on their steel bodies.
The newcomers were frightened and thought the end of the world had arrived, but then they were ecstatic.
"Is it the ability of the regimental commander?" Koyanagi is overjoyed, with these mechas, not to mention the hundred-person tribe, even if it bulldozes the thousand-person tribe, it will only take five minutes.
"I'm worried in vain, wait to accept slaves!" Sun Guofeng glanced at the aboriginal slaves and found that the indigenous slaves looked horrified, and then knelt on the ground and muttered prayers.
Tang Zheng commanded the mecha to attack the gathering place, but as soon as he walked not far in front of the suspension bridge, explosions occurred one after another, and they were blown into a cloud of scrap metal.
"Landmines?" Tang Zheng's eyes froze, and there was indeed a conqueror hidden inside!
