Chapter Seventy-Six: The Enemy
Su Ming and the three of them followed the mountain path and came to the gathering place of the tribe, where the fog was still thick, and if they opened a distance of more than a dozen steps, they would lose their traces of each other, and they could only hear their voices and not see their people.
Fortunately, everyone was very familiar with this place, and it didn't take long for them to arrive at the tribal chamber.
Standing outside the door, Su Ming could dimly see the fire in the brazier, the enchanting figure was constantly swaying, and there was actually a strange beauty, which deeply attracted people's attention and made people have a sticky force that could not divert their eyes.
Came to the council hall, the priest, the chief and deputy leaders, and other clan leaders were already waiting, among them there was an old man who had never seen it before, and when he looked at his dress, Su Ming guessed that this must be the new priest He Sui of the He tribe.
"Okay, now all the personnel are here. Priest Hesui, please tell you more about what you have learned, after all, you are the one who knows the situation best, and it will be more detailed for you to explain it yourself. Seeing that Su Ming had already taken his seat, Lie nodded lightly to him, and then said to the old man sitting on the side.
Sure enough, he was the priest of the He tribe (clan). According to the words of the leader Lie, Su Ming confirmed his own speculation at the beginning.
And Hesui saw that everyone had been waiting for so long, for this ordinary-looking young soldier, and he was also silently looking.
This must be the most mysterious reserve priest in the Fire Tribe, the miracle creator Su Ming, as far as he knows, the current Fire Tribe can have such a strong strength, it is Su Ming who has continuously introduced various things in the past ten years, otherwise who would know about this small Fire Tribe.
And a big reason why He Sui led the tribe to join the Fire Tribe was because of Su Ming's existence. The biggest shortcoming of the Fire Tribe now is the lack of population, and now he is leading more than 5,000 people to take refuge, which can solve some of their shortcomings in this area to a certain extent.
He believed that with the addition of their group, the Fire Tribe would usher in a big development in a blowout.
After hearing Lie's words, He Sui didn't get distracted, and actually began to concentrate on two things, while secretly observing Su Ming, who was full of magical colors, while smoothly and clearly telling the situation he knew in detail, and constantly answering the questions raised by Hui and others on the way.
After telling what he knew and answering everyone's questions, He Sui was taken back to their tribal station by the tribal warriors waiting outside the door.
Now is the time for the internal deliberations of the Fire Tribe, and He Sui is not a member of the Fire Tribe, so he cannot participate in their discussions and deliberations, so he can only wait patiently for the final result of the deliberations.
Indeed, Hesui's explanations are more detailed and comprehensive than those of White Fang and Black Ear, for example, they have omitted to mention the use of conquered slaves by strange tribes to fight.
Now that Su Ming listened to He Sui's explanation, he had a more vivid and detailed understanding of the situation of the strange tribe, and also had a good news foundation for formulating a corresponding response plan in the future.
"Let's talk about it, what should we do next? First of all, let's discuss the joining of the He tribe (clan). Leader Lie was still the first to speak, "I completely agree, after all, now that there are totems to restrain them, you can temporarily ignore the issue of their loyalty, to be honest, I really have to thank the Deer Tribe, it is they who have brought these valuable totem knowledge." ”
"I have no problem, I fully agree with their joining, after all, we are very short of manpower now, especially now that we are facing the upcoming big war, we need to replenish the number of our ordinary soldiers. ”
"I also agree, as long as they are dressed in leather armor or iron armor and equipped with black iron weapons, one can fight several ordinary soldiers, which is still very beneficial for large-scale battles. ”
......
"I'm all for that. Well, since everyone has no objection to receiving the He tribe (clan) as a subordinate tribe of our Fire Tribe, then the matter has been settled. Priest Hui was the last to speak, as always, and by the way to conclude the deliberations and the final results of the deliberations.
"Then let's move on to the next topic, what measures should we take regarding the strange tribes who are marching towards our tribal station? By the way, I heard what Hesui said just now, there are five days at most, and they will arrive at our station. ”
"What else can I do, I think it's enough to start sending knights to set up a formation and start fighting directly, why bother so much. ”
"I think it's better to use the giant crossbow unit to carry out a long-range attack first, maybe just crush the opponent's team, and then supplement the knight pursuit......"
On a small hill dyed by forests, the autumn wind was slow, blowing the leaves and making a rustling sound, the vast land had withered and yellowed, and the woods were no longer noisy with the birds of the past, but now it was quiet, and there were clouds and mist on the mountainside in the distance like a thin white veil to wrap the trees.
A strange-headed pony with two curved horns, its head sticking out of the withered bushes. On its back sat a tribal warrior dressed in a simple but thick armor made of the skin of a wild beast.
I saw that he stretched his neck hard, looking into the distance as much as possible, in the light of the rising sun, a huge number of troops, were lined up in a huge phalanx, slowly pressing towards this side.
The marching procession all over the mountains, with a fairly neat pace, overwhelmingly under the guidance of a banner that had never been seen before, crushed towards this side with an overwhelming momentum, and the murderous spirit was overwhelming.
The brigade marched on the dry earth, trampling the dry earth into powder, which then rose like a cloud and flew into the sky.
The invading strange tribe has now arrived!
Seeing the situation on the other side, the two-horned knight turned his direction and galloped towards the tribe's station, so as to report the news to the leader of the tribe.
One after another, two-horned horses galloped into the gates of the wall, and the sound of a desolate trumpet suddenly sounded from the wall, and a group of tribal warriors armed with bows, spears, and long knives, dressed in armor made of black iron or the leather of the wild beasts, ran quickly up the tall walls. And the giant crossbows that had been installed on the city walls also began to raise their thick bowstrings with the swift and skillful operation of the warriors.
All of a sudden, the entire tribe began to get busy, the warriors were all in full array, and an invisible aura of killing began to spread, enveloping the entire tribe's station.
The cruel war has come, no matter how fanciful it was before, or it didn't matter, but when the war really came, everyone's expressions became serious, and there was no usual hippie smile.
After all, war is not child's play, just like a child's pretending to be a family, this is really going to kill people, and it is a large number of dead people.
Su Ming quickly climbed the city wall with everyone, stood on the watchtower built on the city wall, and observed the enemy situation in the distance together.
Standing on a high place, even if he didn't use his spiritual power with his naked eye, he could see that behind the low hill, a large number of soldiers lined up in phalanxes were gradually coming out, each phalanx was a large area of black pressure, and from a distance, each phalanx had at least two thousand people.
It lasted for half an hour before all the enemies completely walked out of the hill and fully entered the sight of the Fire Tribe.
Su Ming estimated slightly, and after coming up with the approximate number of enemies, he couldn't help but gasp, feeling extremely troubled. Especially since his current strength has not yet reached the realm of a one-man enemy country, he also feels a toothache in the face of such a huge team battle.
The other party's warriors here are about 30,000 people, and now the number is only temporary, which is as much as four times the total population of the entire Fire Tribe, and ten times as many as the Fire Tribe's warriors, and these are not their main forces.
So what will be the population of their entire tribe? This is not what Su Ming can imagine now.
For all this in front of them, the Fire Tribe had made some mental preparations before, but it was just a report from the spies, just a literal number. Seeing such a huge military formation with my own eyes at the scene, and feeling it in person, it was a different feeling.
