Chapter Twenty-Eight: Into the Forest
Li Chengzhou looked at the people in front of him who were ready to go, if he did it alone, he would definitely not be able to do it to this extent, otherwise it would be said that everyone would be collecting firewood and the flame would be high.
Fan Qingyan arranged in an orderly manner, and the guards could pick up the things in the warehouse at will, but they must register the time and quantity. Armor and equipment were distributed to the warriors who had been persuaded by the Tomahawks, and the army set off together.
Fan Qingyan counted the number of people, 90 sword and shield hands, 50 crossbowmen, and 12 craftsmen.
As the people were ready, they left the camp and headed for the forest.
The head of the house, who was standing at the bow of the boat, saw them off, and Meng Biao on the side asked.
"Fang Lao, wouldn't this be too risky? Wouldn't it be too dangerous for a bunch of hairy boys to go in so recklessly? They even let my guards act on their own. ”
Fang Changge's face was expressionless: "The fledgling can't stay under our wings all the time, Qingyan's idea is quite reliable, the battle axe is also very familiar with the situation in the forest, and there are one hundred and forty armor soldiers to follow, now the tribes in the forest should be in a mess, wherever we go, they will definitely avoid its edge, so there will be no danger." ”
"Besides, even if they fail, it's nothing, they go out, and they can come back alive no matter what."
"Now that they've set off, we're going to start moving, we can't really let a bunch of hairy boys compare us to us!"
"General Meng should think about what to do when he goes back, I heard that you have recently accepted a few little fans? Just the beard that was particularly arrogant before is now following you every day? ”
Meng Biao smiled: "That person is generally not a big problem, thick and fine, I just fought with him a few times, and he was obedient." ”
Fang Changge and Meng Biao got off the boat and walked towards the room: "General Meng, go back and think about how to compare these hairy boys, I'll go back and think about what happened after the founding of the city, and come over after dinner and tell me what you think in your heart." ”
After Fang Changge and Meng Biao separated, the two of them were also full of fighting spirit, and they wanted to compare a few hairy boys to let them know that Jiang was still old and spicy.
The forest is the world of the tribe, and the tribe has lived in the forest for generations, where there is danger, where there is safety, where there is water, where food is abundant, every warrior of the tribe knows clearly.
The tomahawk was supposed to be at the forefront, guiding the troops, and more than a hundred people moved forward steadily, all the way through the sea crossing, directly towards the location before the Oak Tribe. Tomahawk is going to find the mark left by old Moissan, and find him in his original station.
The barbarian warriors in the team were very curious about the armor and swords and shields on their bodies, and they kept touching along the way, and the time spent in the camp had made them accustomed to this more comfortable life, and they did not want to go back to the old life of picking, which was dangerous and full of uncertainty. In order to show their attitude, they are at the front of the team
The craftsmen carried their own food on their backs, and this time they went to lobby the tribes mainly by these craftsmen, and they needed to show their exquisite skills in the tribes and the alliance of scattered people, so that they would know that they would have a better life after joining here.
The soldiers walked on the sides and behind the procession, protecting the overall safety of the procession, they were also in charge of demonstrations, and they carried three days' dry rations on their backs, but there was plenty of food in the forest to replenish at any time, and clean water could be found under the leadership of the tomahawk.
Li Chengzhou followed the tomahawk to the front: "We are walking so openly, are we not afraid of being attacked?" ”
Tomahawk waved his hand: "With me, no accident." Not to mention that there are many of us, the sentinels of the various tribes don't have any idea when they see it. Let's just say that I've been wandering in the forest since I could walk, and the tribes move a lot, and most of the tribes in the forest know each other. ”
It wasn't until sunset that the group reached the former garrison of the Oak Tribe.
The Tomahawk searched around the station for the marks left by the tribe before leaving, and eventually found a mark on a tree.
"About fifty miles east and thirty miles south of this place I came to the new station, and I had the impression that this place was like a waterfall. We'll rest first, and we'll leave early tomorrow morning, and by noon we should be almost there. ”
Craftsmen began to use local materials, using stone and timber to continue the original defensive walls. The soldiers took off their armor and cooked on the stove.
The rest of the soldiers began to set up tents, everything was in order, Li Chengzhou watched everyone busy like an outsider, wanted to help but was careless, and was "invited" back by the soldiers on the excuse that they were too tired.
Li Chengzhou deeply realized that he still had a lot to do, and the first thing he did when he returned was to give up his room and eat and sleep with the soldiers.
It was late at night, Fan Qingyan arranged for soldiers to patrol, and the rest of the people had already fallen asleep.
Suddenly, a thud woke everyone up, and the soldiers rushed out in armor.
Outside the makeshift camp, there were two dozen barbarian warriors, holding torches and striking long wooden stakes against the newly reinforced walls.
Fan Qingyan looked at Li Chengzhou, found that Li Chengzhou also looked at him, and sighed, he was really a shopkeeper.
"Stay away from that wall, a stick for each person, and when they crash into the wall, close the door and beat the dog!"
The warriors of the Scattered Alliance often roam the forest, not only warriors who have been banished by the tribe, but also warriors who have not been disciplined. They raided houses in the forest, and the tribes hated them. But since they don't care about it, even the tribes with a large number of people can't do anything about them.
In the past, there were tribes that joined forces to eradicate these tumors, but with little success.
The barbarian warriors who attacked the wall outside the door were also stunned, why is this wall so strong? It's completely different from before. In the past, the walls of various tribes always collapsed as soon as they hit, and they ran away when they went in and robbed them, how many times did they knock on it now? It hasn't collapsed yet.
The soldiers waited inside the wall for a long time, and the barbarian warriors carried the not-so-thick stake and struck it many times, and finally crashed into the wall.
The barbarian warriors roared and rushed in, but the next second they were stunned, surrounded not by tribal warriors wrapped in animal skins, but by soldiers in armor and armed with clubs, and they immediately thought of the foreign army that had been in a uproar recently.
The warriors turned and ran, only to see that the wall they had crashed into had been blocked by soldiers in armor.
Without even resisting, the soldiers moved forward, and the fighters immediately threw down their weapons and surrendered.
It just so happened that the "dungeon" where Li Chengzhou was held before was still there, and the craftsmen repaired it a little, sleeping when they should sleep, patrolling when they should be patrolling, and guarding when they should be guarded, and everything will be talked about until the next day.
