Chapter 143: The Sheep Tribe Joins the Team

After resting for two days, one by one finally returned to their wolf-like appearance.

It happened that yesterday evening Shi Meng also returned to the tribe with the hunting team, Song Xuan informed him of Yangyang's request, and Shi Meng decisively agreed.

Now is the time when the hunting team is most short of people, and with the addition of more than a dozen people in Yangyang, the harvest that can be obtained will naturally be a lot more.

A hunting party of forty people alone can bring back the tribe for nearly ten days or so after a single trip, and now the wild beasts in the mountains are very active, and it is easy to encounter herds.

Even the requirement that Song Xuan told them before that they must be captured alive when they have a chance, but thinking that the food reserves of the tribe were not sufficient recently, Song Xuan continued not to emphasize it, and waited until it was delayed, anyway, it was not a hurry, and there was still a cow tribe here.

Yang Yang and the others could still see that they were a little nervous, after all, this was their first hunt after joining the Teng Snake, and the scale was relatively large, plus fifteen of them, there were already seventy people.

Since there were many places in the tribe that needed to work, Song Xuan still detained a few people from the hunting team.

However, the hunting team of seventy people is also quite a strong existence in the surrounding waves, even if it is a kite tribe, it is estimated that it is difficult to reach this scale, and the Teng snake has further potential, of course, in that case, some work in the tribe is not so convenient.

According to Shi Meng's plan, the actual team is still divided into three groups, never hunting in the same direction, and the three captains are naturally Shi Meng, Shi Yong and Shui Yun.

Yang Yang's ability is naturally enough, but he is not familiar with the hunting method on Teng Snake's side, and his prestige is also poor, so it must be a little inappropriate for him to lead a team, but fortunately, Yang Yang has no meaning for this arrangement, and his posture of joining Teng Snake is lower than that of Shui Yun at that time.

Since the newcomers have been added, the personnel of each team must be appropriately adjusted, and of course, these dozen people will also be scattered into the three teams.

When hunting in the hunting team of Teng Snake, there are generally no mandatory requirements for weapons, which are the most suitable to use in the situation at the time.

However, most people don't carry too many kinds of weapons, first, it is not convenient to run, and secondly, it is not necessarily possible to use so many weapons, usually the main weapon plus the slings and secondary weapons.

However, it is important for everyone to be proficient in how to use each weapon.

The most popular of all kinds of weapons is naturally the bow and arrow, which is powerful at a distance and does not easily attract the attention of wild beasts, which is really a good weapon for home hunting.

So most people will carry a bow on their backs, and those with better archery skills can get twenty arrows, and those who are slightly worse are only ten, of course, those who specialize in bows and arrows like Shi Yu are allowed to bring them themselves, of course, there are not many such people in the tribe, and there are only five people in total.

The two tribes add up to more than 40 people, a total of 30 people have bows and arrows, and the remaining more than ten people are out of personal habits, they bring their own weapons that they are better at, anyway, for this, Teng Snake will not make hard requirements, as long as you master the use of bows and arrows, when hunting, you will naturally follow what you are best at, and if you are mandatory, it will reduce efficiency.

Most of these people are accustomed to using spears as their main weapons, and spears will be more comfortable for them to use, of course, javelins and slings are also used more.

When hunting, people who use all kinds of weapons are needed, and it is impossible to shoot the prey at a long distance every time, and once they are in close contact, the people who use bows and arrows may not be able to react in a short time, and then they will naturally become the first group to stand in the front.

Of course, the outermost ones must be the captives of the tribe, even if many of them have joined the Teng Snake, but when it comes to hunting, they are still at the forefront.

And they usually have only two weapons in their hands, and they are given fewer choices, only spears, javelins, and stone axes.

And the spear is still a must, and the other two depend on their personal habits, and they can choose to carry them at will.

The slings and bows and arrows all involve the secrets of the Teng Snake, so naturally it is impossible to give them easy use, but this is not much different from their previous hunting, and it is much safer on the Teng Snake side than in the Black Feather Tribe.

So these captives did not appear to be dissatisfied, as long as they can be prepared as soon as they encounter the beast, basically there is no big problem with safety, and the large beasts are easier to hunt for the snake.

As long as the two sides are in a state of confrontation, it will not be long before a dozen arrows will fly over, and it is difficult for any prey to withstand a few rounds of shooting.

Even if there is no way to shoot on the spot, and even some prey slips away with its rough skin and thick flesh, it is not a threat to everyone's safety.

Yangyang naturally didn't need to explore the grass outside, considering that their bodies had not yet reached their peak, so Shi Meng also deliberately took care of them when arranging, so that they could be in the middle of the team as much as possible, so that they could not fight with the beasts head-on, and they would inevitably reduce contact as much as possible.

Teng snake has developed to the current state, there are few cases that can fight to the death with wild beasts, after having a bow and arrow sling, the efficiency of hunting has improved a lot, naturally there is no need to put your life into it for the sake of one or two large beasts.

Of course, the beast was forced to be in a hurry, and the situation of the dog jumping over the wall in a hurry was naturally an exception, especially the group of carnivores, like wolves or something, were killed with red eyes, and they really dared to turn their heads and fight hard.

Moreover, the wolf is also a very grudgeful animal, if you let go too much at once, you may come over at night to carry out a sneak attack.

After the readjustment, one team is twenty-three or four.

Shi Meng led the largest number of people, a full twenty-four, one more than the other two teams, this is naturally because he is the big leader, and he naturally needs to bear more responsibilities, and the other two leaders are unwilling to choose the team with the most people, so it seems that their strength is slightly inferior.

There are ten archers in each team, this is a match that cannot be beaten, although Shi Yu is the leader of the archers, but obviously he can't lead the team alone, so it's too unbalanced, but he doesn't have a fixed team, several teams go back and forth, guiding everyone how to choose the best time to shoot arrows.

And the other first batch of people who used bows and arrows also brought two or three people as old people, scattered in various teams, archers also need to cooperate, a single person, the strength that can be played is also very limited, and the number of people is less can also ensure that the damage caused at the same time is more stable, three or four arrows shot out at the same time, generally there will be no off-target situation, less is difficult to say.

The rest of the personnel arrangement is five people who captured the five sheep tribes, and other people who took the snake.

There are no requirements for the weapons of several leaders, and they are more important to decide the direction of the hunt and the arrangement of the hunt for wild beasts, so they generally use the weapons they are best at, and the types they carry are relatively small, usually only one or two.

Shi Meng naturally uses the javelin he is best at, the person is tall and big, a person carries two rows of javelins every time, a full ten, and even Shi Meng is no longer satisfied with long-distance accurate throwing, and now he has also developed a short-distance two-handed throw, although the power is relatively low, but it is also very threatening within ten meters, and can easily penetrate most of the beasts.

Shi Yong still uses the spear he is most accustomed to, and it is also used in combination with the shield, but the only drawback is that the two cannot be used at the same time, Song Xuan is also thinking, whether it is possible to transform the existing shield in the tribe and add a gap to it, so that not only has a certain defensive ability, but also can expose the spear, and the deterrent effect is not small, of course, such a change seems to be more effective in the face of the enemy.

And Shui Yun abandoned his previous weapons, and his favorite thing to use now was the sling, and after coming to Teng Snake's side, he finally had enough pottery pill practice.

Shui Yun, who was very interested in this, couldn't put it down, and he had to practice dozens of times a day, and this time he really let him practice, and a slingling rope was invincible in the tribe, it was also one of the best, very accurate, except for the forward swing was a little longer, and there was basically no big difference with the bow and arrow.

Such a team, although the number of people is not particularly large, but the strength is still quite strong, and it can respond to all kinds of emergencies.

A small tribe like Teng Snake is still more suitable for such a small team, Shi Meng and they have not tried collective action, but the efficiency of more people has slowed down, and the transmission of information between people has also slowed down a lot, and it is not casual to encounter groups of animals, most of the cases can be those three or two, and dozens of people swarming up is a bit overkill.

Of course, this is still too few people to Teng Snake, if the number of existing hunting teams is doubled, there will be no such big concerns, when the time comes, directly surround a place, slowly squeeze their living space, and there is no need to chase and run all over the mountains as now, of course, Teng Snake is still a long way to go from such a hunting method.

Fortunately, not all places are densely forested, otherwise many people would have died of exhaustion just by chasing from the forest, and as the gathering and hunting teams left the tribe, the noisy tribe finally quieted down again.
