Volume 2: The Loose World Chapter 138: Retest (40) Raid on Stone Mountain

When they returned to the Mu tribe, only Mu Wu and You, eighty-eight soldiers who were somewhat wounded, and nineteen slaves, Fan and Mang took three hundred cavalry and turned to the mountain tribe halfway to prevent accidents there.

After returning, the nineteen slaves were handed over to Ling, Zhuo, and Yuan, and the three witch disciples, who would carry out specific indoctrination and transformation on these mountain tribe warriors, and the knowledge of these aspects had already been passed on to several people.

You organized a hundred cavalry, two hundred archers, and two hundred crossbowmen, and rushed to the mountain tribe again, and joined up with three hundred cavalry, eight hundred clans plus three ability warriors, even if the mountain tribe poured out, it could be dealt with.

It's not the time to do it yet, it's still early from the planned time, but if the mountain tribe wants to move, the wood tribe doesn't mind going to war, the time is from the dry season in August, and soon to the cold season in October, and the domestication of slaves is basically completed.

From the mouths of the nineteen mountain tribe slaves, Mu Wu learned the news he wanted the most, the station of the mountain tribe, on a hill in the jungle, a thousand feet high, twenty miles in range, the slope of the mountain is steep, and the top of the mountain is gentle.

They are very good at picking places, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, there is only a path of more than ten miles, the two sides are very steep, you can see clearly on the top of the mountain, there are many caves on the mountain, the stone is abundant, there are houses piled up with stones.

There were 4,000 people in the mountain tribe, 1,000 slaves, and nearly 2,000 warriors, and there were originally a total of five warriors with special abilities, but when fighting for salt mines with the Feng tribe outside the jungle, one of them died in battle, and only four remained.

One can petrify and transfer the ability to others, but the transfer time is short, and the ability of the Mountain Witch is to maintain the ability to petrify for a long time, so that the petrification power of the mountain warrior lasts for a long time.

But the mountain witch was killed, and a warrior who could escape was also killed by the wood tribe, and in the mountain tribe, there were only three ability warriors, a petrified warrior, a land control warrior, and the leader of the mountain tribe.

The ability of the boss is soil, which is different from petrification, and it is similar to the woodification of the tree, which is to turn people or other things into fragile soil, which is an extremely rare ability, and the personal combat effectiveness is extraordinary.

The best way is to outwit, but the stone mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, open on all sides, there is nowhere to dodge, and it is difficult to sneak attack, and it is really difficult to deal with.

However, through the narration of the slave warriors, the wood witch soon found a weakness, and the place where the hill tribe lived was a huge stone mountain, most of the mountain was stone, the soil was very little, and the vegetation was sparse.

There is no fixed water source on the rocky mountain, and the place where the mountain tribe stores water is a huge stone pool, if there is rain and snow, it can use the precipitation of the sky.

In the heat and drought, a large number of slaves were driven to fill it with hollow log buckets from the streams below the mountain with water from far away, and when they were full, they could only be used for ten sunsets.

This kind of thing is very common in the jungle, not all tribes have streams passing next to them, just like the fire tribe, which is also maintained by carrying water, until it becomes a fire branch, and the wood witch takes the tribesmen to dig wells.

The stone mountain is full of stones, you don't have to think about digging a well, there is only one stream next to it, it is the perennial water source of the mountain tribe, the distance is more than 30 miles, to conquer the mountain tribe, you must start from the water source!

......

At the end of November, he successfully awakened and became the sixth ability warrior of the tribe, and his awakened ability is poison, any poison is ineffective against him, and he can control and use poison at will, and even poison and kill the ability warrior.

His poisonous ability provided great convenience for the implementation of Mu Wu's plan, giving him half a month to consolidate and familiarize himself with his own strength, and Mu Wu also completely implemented his plan.

At the end of the year, at the great sacrifice, Mu Wu was impassioned, reaffirmed the hatred between the wood tribe and the fire tribe, mobilized the enthusiasm of the tribesmen, inspired the military spirit of the warriors, and led an army of 1,000 people to go out to defeat the mountain tribes.

Two hundred heavy infantry, two hundred grenadiers, two hundred shield soldiers, two hundred spearmen, two hundred sword and axe soldiers, the water infantry did not bring, in the mountains and jungles, the combat effectiveness was not high, the equipment soldiers were not brought, and it was not suitable for siege.

Two two-hundred-person warbands, two hundred reserve soldiers, plus the ability warrior Liu, is the guardian force of the tribe, and the Yu and Yi have also been taken away, the headquarters is okay, the fire division and the copper division may be a little empty.

The slave warriors of those mountain tribes also chose ten more obedient ones, and brought them to lead the way, and there was another wonderful use, and the thousand-man warring team sang the ballad of the hunting team, and left the tribe in a mighty manner under the joy of all the clansmen.

In the north of the wood tribe, the mountain tribe is a stone mountain, on the top of the mountain, the mountain leader has a gloomy face, looking at the long-lost sunshine, the cold season is finally coming to an end, his face is slightly better, this cold season, the mountain tribe has died a lot.

Originally, the situation of starving to death in the cold season was just the daily life of a small tribe, and it should not happen in a strong mountain tribe, but this year is different, a big event happened in the mountain tribe, and the mountain witch is gone!

The mountain witch led the team to the forest waiting department to make offerings, but he didn't come back for a long time, and even the accompanying alien warriors disappeared without a trace, and the mountain leader sent three waves of people to look for them, but they also became silent.

The two teams in front of them each had a hundred people, and the last team reached three hundred, and there were even special warriors leading the team, but they still didn't see them back, and the mood of the mountain leader became extremely bad.

The three search teams, plus the supply team, before and after, seven hundred warriors, two special warriors, and one mountain witch, all disappeared, and the mountain tribe warriors were seriously lacking, and the hunting results in the dry season were also sharply reduced.

The food source of the mountain tribes is still mainly hunting, although there is breeding, but the number is not much, not enough for the tribe to consume, the results of hunting are reduced, which directly leads to the lack of food in the cold season, and the tribesmen starve to death one after another.

If it weren't for the leader's quick decision, the killer slaughtered all the breeding beasts, not even the cubs, replenished the food of the tribe, and saved money to survive the cold season, I am afraid that there will be more people who will starve to death.

Even so, at the end of the entire cold season, the tribesmen and warriors were also yellow-skinned, malnourished, and their physical strength and energy were seriously reduced.

When the season came, the animals, which had disappeared for a few months, began to move in the mountains and forests, and the warriors began to hunt under the leadership of the mountain chief, and it did not take long to sweep away the prey around them.

The only remaining petrified warriors wanted to take the team to hunt farther away, but the mountain leader thought about it, and thought of the outing teams that disappeared one after another, his face turned black, once or twice was an accident, three or four times was an accident?

With the replenishment of food, he finally realized that his tribe had been calculated! How could he rest assured that he would let the warriors go far away, so he shook his head and did not agree, only letting them move around the tribe.

The animals around were very limited, and they could only guarantee that they would not starve to death, and could not provide unbridled food, so the leader went out with five hundred warriors to hunt three times, and harvested a lot of prey, which greatly satisfied the needs.

The leader was confident that he was strong, and the tribe could not deal with the enemies he could not deal with, leaving only the petrified warriors to guard, but there was no accident, as if he was really afraid of him, but he let his guard down.

Food is no longer a threat, but there is a new problem with water sources, in the cold season, when the snow covers the mountains, the tribesmen can gnaw on the snow, and use the ice and snow to store a full pool, and the ice and snow melt in the growing season, and it becomes a water source for drinking.

However, the pond was not large, it could only last for ten days, and when the ice and snow water ran out, it was necessary to replenish a new water source, and the petrified warriors took a hundred warriors and drove five hundred slaves to the stream near the stone mountain to bring water to replenish it.

One time is definitely not enough, a team of five hundred slaves must be transported at least ten times, the first few times, the mountain leader personally followed, there was no accident, and the next few times, he did not follow again.

The stream of drinking water is near the stone mountain, although the top of the mountain is invisible, but the distance is very close, if something goes wrong, it can also be supported in time, the mountain leader is not worried, but the accident happened, and the water team is gone!

Five hundred slaves, a hundred warriors, and petrified warriors, all vanished! Only traces of battle remained on the ground, hollow barrels scattered everywhere, few human footprints, and dense hoofprints of wild beasts.

The hoof prints lead deep into the mountain forest, which is clearly visible, but the mountain leader does not dare to chase it, his face is extremely ugly, and he is the only special warrior left in the tribe, if it is too far from the stone mountain, the tribe is likely to encounter danger.

He led a team of two hundred warriors, with the remaining nearly four hundred slaves, and continued the work of fetching water, and the present situation was very critical, but it was useless to hurry, they could not do anything.

The clansmen want to eat, they want to drink water, if they don't eat, they will die, if they don't drink water, they will die, and the matter of getting water is very important, and the leader with a gloomy face took the clansmen to complete the matter of taking water, and then returned to the tribe to find a countermeasure.

However, the matter was far from over, and at night, the clansmen and warriors, who drank the water they had retrieved, were all holding their stomachs, and the pain was unbearable, and no one who had drunk the water was exempt.

The ordinary clansmen lost their resistance in an instant, and the warriors were slightly better, but they were also greatly affected, losing most of their strength, and even the leader who was physically strong felt very uncomfortable.

At the same time, a large area of fire lit up at the foot of the mountain, and the mighty men and horses appeared, shouting and quickly rushing to the top of the mountain.

Thousands of people rushed towards the cave where the clansmen lived, and the mountain leader was so angry that he was about to block it, when four figures rushed out of the crowd and attacked him at the same time.

With a spear in his hand, he descends from the sky, he is as strong as iron and wood, and he is unstoppable, and he drives the tree soldiers to charge into battle, and he casts a poisonous mist that cannot be resisted, and he lurks underground, ready to attack and break the defenses at any time.

But the leader of the mountain is really powerful, even if he is affected by the poisonous water, with one enemy and four, he basically does not fall behind, except that he was defenseless at the beginning, and was found an opportunity by the underground recklessness, successfully sneaked attack, and was stabbed.

Since that time, he has been distracted and on guard, and although he has fallen behind, he has never been attacked again, and he has tried to sneak attack twice, but he has seized the opportunity, and he has been injured, and the battle has fallen into persistence, and it cannot be ended for the time being.

Whether it is the strength of the physique or the quality of the ability, the mountain leader is too tall compared to the five people, he has awakened more than a hundred years earlier, and he is already in the middle stage of the ability warrior, and he can hunt adult giant elephants alone.

And a few warriors in the wood tribe have only reached the early stage of the ability warriors, the highest is Yu and You, who are about to reach the middle stage, but there is still a distance, Yu's talent is good, and Yu has eaten a lot of herbs with Wu.

The five of them joined forces, but they could only barely suppress it, unable to form an advantage, the yellow wind around the mountain leader howled, soiling anything that came close, the trees and soldiers turned into loess, the animal skin and armor withered and rotted, and the skin of the body was also sandified.

Even the hard, sharp bronze weapons had become much softer and more fragile after staying in the yellow wind for too long, and they could only leave the mountain leader behind, but they could not inflict fatal damage.
