Chapter 112: Escape
Standing on the high mound, Shuwu looked at the warriors who had come into contact with each other, the huge group of warriors spread out on the ground outside the valley, like two huge waves, now violently colliding together, making a sound with life, and splashing the waves of blood.
He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
In fact, he had come here a long time ago, but he didn't attack as agreed at the first time, but waited, he was waiting for the vine tribe on the opposite side to attack first.
But in the end, he failed, and did not wait for the opponent to attack, although he knew that the opponent was behind the hill.
But he still took the lead in attacking, because he wanted to pull the flower tribe down from the position of the first force.
Now at least half of them are the warriors of the Flower Tribe, and if he doesn't seize such a good opportunity, and wait for it to slip away from his eyes, then he will be really stupid.
Therefore, in order to achieve his goal, he had to take the lead in attacking, because he was afraid, afraid that Su Ming and they would not be able to resist and directly chose to retreat. There are too few people in the Fire Tribe, only a little more than two thousand.
At that time, the Flower Tribe can rely on the favorable terrain of the Red Mountain to resist and defend against their attacks.
At that time, he didn't know who would die in the end, and he also lost an opportunity to hit the other party so well in vain.
Sure enough, after the warriors on his side fought with the Flower Tribe, the warriors of the Vine Tribe rushed out of the dense forest as if they were belated, overwhelming and amazing.
In the face of the sudden mutation, seeing the ambush soldiers that suddenly appeared on the side, the leader of the flower tribe immediately changed his face, and the current situation began to become bad.
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but none of them had a reliable way to do it again.
When he saw the warriors pouring out of the woods, with no end in sight, he knew that there was no chance of victory.
Since the Tree Tribe has sent ambush soldiers, then it is necessary to protect the Fire Tribe, which is to fight with themselves to the end, and they are not afraid of the warriors they are bringing now.
The people of the Fire Tribe eventually succeeded in uniting the Tree Tribe and allowing them to send troops to ambush them, after all, the other two clans were no less hungry for black iron weapons than themselves.
As long as Su Ming took out the smelting technology and lured it a little, they would definitely agree, especially since there was such a huge ready-made hematite mine, which strengthened their determination to send troops.
Retreat, at least withdraw your own warriors and bring them back safely, now is not the time to merge, otherwise it will only be cheaper for the other one who did not come.
Retreat, that is, his only option now. But fortunately, the vine tribe did not participate, otherwise none of these people from the flower tribe here today would have wanted to leave here.
When the horn sounded, the warriors of the Flower tribe in the valley retreated directly, and the leader of the flower tribe also directly led the remaining warriors to meet them, preparing to resist the enemy's attack, so as to meet the warriors who were retreating to this side.
But soon, he had to make painful choices, because he was soon at an absolute disadvantage.
While their battle with the Tree Tribe was raging, the warriors of the Vine Tribe suddenly appeared, and an overwhelming number of warriors rushed towards this place like a tidal wave.
Oh no, you have to go now, or you really won't be able to leave. But at this time, those foot warriors who went to attack were still on the way back, and they were not picked up.
They were now merely converging with the donkey cavalry forces that remained behind the attacking forces, defending themselves against the onslaught of the Tree Tribe, giving time to the retreating warriors.
Moreover, the number of the tree tribe is still in an advantage, and the two sides are in a stalemate, they are fighting brutally face to face, and the speed of casualties is also rising in a straight line.
#没时间了, it is necessary to break through now, otherwise when the warriors of the vine tribe are completely encircled, it is possible that none of these warriors will survive.
It seems that the only way to abandon the foot warriors is to hope that they will capture them alive and redeem them when the time comes. #首领一瞬间就做出了自己的选择.
The desolate horn sounded again, and the warriors who were still stuck with the Tree Tribe began to retreat quickly.
Although the warriors of the Tree Tribe rushed forward and wanted to entangle each other to the death, most of the warriors of the Flower Tribe escaped, especially those war donkey cavalry, who evacuated quickly with the speed of their mounts.
The warriors here had already begun to evacuate, but the warriors on foot who were still rushing back were all stunned for a moment after hearing the desolate sound of the horn.
Looking at the fast-moving figure in the distance, I didn't know what to do for a while, what was this, I was abandoned like this.
Especially those native warriors of the Flower Tribe, now their minds are full of despair, resentment, fear, unwillingness, and all kinds of negative emotions are constantly flashing in their hearts, do they choose to fight to the death or surrender alive?
Some could not bear the fear of death and chose to lay down their arms and surrender; some reflexively attacked Su Ming and them because of fear, and in their opinion, Su Ming and they were easier to deal with; others defeated the fear of death and rushed towards the enemy with a roar, and then drowned, setting off a small wave in the fierce wave of the enemy.
The warriors of the vine tribe arrived, but due to the chosen offensive route, its terrain was not very good, which slowed down the attack speed of the warriors, allowing the warriors of the flower tribe to have more reaction time, and in the end only left them with about five thousand warriors.
The leader of the Flower Tribe, leading the remnants of the tribe warriors, less than 10,000 people, was fleeing quickly and in embarrassment, not daring to stop for a moment.
When they arrived here at noon, the 30,000 soldiers were full of energy and high morale, and they thought that it was just a small encirclement and suppression mission, and they could achieve victory as long as they waited for a while.
But the truth gave them a stick, a simple wooden fence blocked their progress, and the subsequent arrival of the tree tribe forced them to change the direction of attack, and the last vine tribe that appeared, directly caused them to completely collapse.
In this battle, not only did he lose most of the warriors of the subordinate tribes, but also all the slave warriors, even the warriors of his own clan, he also lost more than 5,000.
Now, after the conflict with the Fire Tribe, the Flower Tribe has lost nearly 10,000 native warriors, which has severely weakened their strength and shaken the foundation of their rule.
The leader, who knew the situation of the Flower tribe very well, knew that he had to make peace now, otherwise if he continued to lose like this, those affiliated tribes would definitely leave his tribe and join the other two big tribes.
In this area, the knowledge of the subordinate tribes did not pass down from there due to the barrier of the endless mountains.
Without those harsh restrictions, the loyalty of the subordinate tribes to the suzerain's tribe will change with time and the current situation, so in order to maintain their position, the flower tribe must have enough force to deter those who have evil intentions or tribes.
The battle continued until dark, and then stopped, although the leader of the Flower Tribes ran away, but it could also be regarded as a big victory.
In this battle, the Tree Tribe and the Vine Tribe beheaded more than 8,000 people and captured 12,000 prisoners. Among them, the soldiers of the flower tribe did not let go of the soldiers of the flower tribe, whether they were killed in battle or surrendered during the battle, and they were all executed. Only those slave warriors and warriors of the affiliated tribes were left as trophies of this battle.
Now Su Ming, Shu Wu, and Vine (Vine Tribe Leader) are together, discussing the next step.
After today's battle, a gap between everyone has also appeared.
Especially Shuwu, after everyone met, they have been complaining constantly. It is said that the vines not only did not choose a good time, but also did not choose a good attack path, so that this raid was not fully successful, so that the leader of the flower tribe rushed out of their encirclement with nearly 10,000 people.
And the vines are also a teachable meaning, constantly accompanying him, although his face is full of regret, but the deepest part of the eyes, is as calm as a lake without a trace of waves, and it is also clear and spiritual.
If Su Ming hadn't been observing them, he wouldn't have noticed this strange situation.
According to the performance of the vine tribe today, Su Ming also discovered that their native warriors all had very high command and mutual coordination abilities on the battlefield.
They are the backbone of the entire army, and these practical battlefield abilities are not something that soldiers who rarely fight can learn and understand.
