Chapter 195: Wait
When Shi Meng heard Song Xuan's order, he didn't dare to delay, and soon he also understood Song Xuan's thoughts, not only brought a dozen torches, but also grabbed a large handful of animal skins by the way.
The torches in the tribe are wrapped in wood and skins, and the skins are usually soaked in grease, so that the burning time will be very long-lasting, and they are naturally not used in the tribe, but if you go out to hunt or gather, you usually bring some with you, in case you can't return to the tribe in time, and you can see the road clearly when you walk at night.
Since it is not used much, there is not much inventory in the tribe, and the roots that Shi Meng brought are nearly half.
However, this is not a rare thing, and it is not precious to make it except for wasting some oil.
"Fierce, can you throw it?"
The enemy behind the shield is obviously also trying to be stable, and instead of cleaning it from the outside to the inside, he goes directly to the next circle after clearing a part, which can ensure that a safe passage will be opened soon.
At this time, it was the time to clean up the last lap, and it was only more than thirty meters away from the tribe.
"No problem!"
This distance is naturally not difficult for Shi Meng, but throwing it is another thing, and it is not so easy to succeed.
Shi Yong was confused when he saw the conversation between the two.
But he soon understood, and saw that the stone torch was lit and wrapped in a half-knot of animal skins around the periphery, and when both were completely burned, he immediately threw the torch at the enemy's shield.
Knowing that if the speed of throwing it was too fast, the torch would easily go out in mid-air, so Shi Meng's strength was relatively gentle.
The skin wrapped around the torch was loosened in mid-air, and it was now hanging directly on top of the shield, and the torch fell underneath.
Although they felt that the shield moved slightly, the people behind them thought that Teng Snake was continuing to attack with a bow and arrow javelin, and the previous attack did not work, so they didn't pay attention, but soon there was a burning smell in front of them.
Song Xuan saw that the animal skin was really ignited, and also asked Shi Yong to quickly concoct it in the same way, and set the other shield on fire, although it took a certain amount of time to burn, and the wood behind it was cut down from fresh trees, it was not easy to completely burn it with some animal skins, but as long as there was no barrier from the animal skin, the entire frame would not be able to support it.
The few people behind the shield quickly sensed that something was wrong, because a small hole had been burned underneath.
Since he didn't care about continuing to clean up the pottery shards, he picked up the shield and prepared to retreat, the skin of the black feather was similar to that of the snake, and the hair on it was basically not cleaned up, so it was quickly burned after it was ignited, and several people didn't even bother to take it, so they dropped the shield and ran backwards.
"Whoosh~"
"Whoosh!"
Seeing that the enemy finally ran out from under the shield, Shi Yu also vented his bow and pulled his bow for a full moon, and shot an arrow violently, although it was more than fifty meters away from the tribe at this time, there was still one person who was shot by Shi Yu.
"Fierce, go back!"
Afraid that the enemy would react, Song Xuan hurriedly asked Shi Meng to go back and burned the shield on his side.
Teng Snake's operation obviously surprised the dark clouds very much, this shield can also be regarded as the signature weapon of the black feather, which can be used in large-scale battles.
There are even tribes that are completely made of wood, but no matter which tribe they face, they are basically helpless, and no one has ever thought of burning it with fire.
At this time, it was a big loss, and the shield that was finally shoveled out was burned cleanly, and the fire quickly burned all the hides on it, and the shield composed of temporary wooden crosses also collapsed at once.
"Oh!"
It didn't take long for the sound of celebration to come from the other side, and it was obvious that Shi Meng had successfully copied this set.
Although the fire attack is very useful, it does take a certain amount of time to make it burn, otherwise it is also very good to burn the shield of the enemy when their enemy charges.
The Black Feather tribe, which lost its big shield, suddenly lost its movement, but there were still figures flickering in the forest, obviously continuing to produce, I don't know what tricks Black Feather could come up with after suffering this loss.
The torch thrown out by Shi Meng not only ignited the shield of the Black Feather Tribe, but even the leaves covering the pottery shards were also burned, and soon three walls of fire were formed around the tribe, which was very spectacular.
However, the leaves have not been burned, and they have not even been closed, and the north and south sides have been burned.
It's a pity that the enemy is not on it, otherwise he can still concoct the last battle experience, Song Xuan only understood at this time, why there were so many famous battles about fire in ancient times, this is really easy to use, it can be attacked and retreated, and it can be defended, as long as it is used well, it can completely reverse the situation.
Just as Song Xuan continued to prepare the shield of the enemy, he saw the man of Wu Yu running into the river with the shield, and then put the shield into the water, obviously wanting to wet the animal skin on the shield.
Originally, it could only be lit by sticking to the flames, so it was not so easy to ignite the shield again.
Losing the fire attack, Song Xuan couldn't think of any other way to solve them for a while, and it was obviously unrealistic to send people out, although they didn't press up collectively, but Wu Yu always had twenty or thirty people and shields to keep a distance of more than twenty meters, although they couldn't attack the Teng Snake, but if they sent people out, they were completely exposed to their attacks, and Wu Yu was also stuck in the distance.
Soon the shield was reassembled, but looking at the appearance of the black feather people, this time the shield even took off a lot of clothes and put it together, as for the rope, there should not be much, it seems that it is still directly cut with the animal skin, which looks extremely strong.
Shi Yong also tried to throw a torch, but the answer was as Song Xuan thought, it was not lit, and it was even doused by the dripping water droplets that fell on it.
At this time, Song Xuan was completely helpless, so he could only let the people of the Wuyu tribe pull out the pottery shards one by one and throw them into the distance.
Obviously, once all the pottery shards are removed, it will be time for the enemy to actually attack. It was only noon, and more than half of the pottery shards on the south side had been removed.
The people of Black Feather were not only dealing with the pottery shards on the outer periphery of the Teng Snake, but they even had time to clean up the traps in the forest, which caused them a lot of trouble.
Fortunately, although Wu Yu made a fuss in the forest for a long time, he didn't find the four snake sentries who were still squatting on the trees.
The four of them all climbed to the height of the tree at the first time, and with the help of the leaves, it was indeed not easy to be found, and Song Xuan even saw a figure at the top of a tree.
There are enemies on all sides, and they can only wave their hands to make him hide more hidden, and if he is discovered, he will almost lose the possibility of escaping.
However, Song Xuan did not rest, although he watched the enemy dismantle the trap he had carefully arranged, he still thought of a way, which was also inspired by the leaves just now.
Song Xuan asked Shi Yong to take people to pick up a lot of straw from the haystack in the tribe and throw it directly on a position about two meters away from the wall.
I didn't throw too much at once, only a thin layer, but if it really burned, the firepower would not be too small.
This row of straw is reserved for the people of the Black Feather tribe to enjoy when they attack, and once they get close to the Teng Snake, they can use a few burning sticks to set the straw on fire.
When the time comes, whether you go forward or backward is not a good decision.
It's just that whether the straw can be completely burned in a short time is a big problem, and if the fire can't start, the effect is very limited.
But no matter what, it can be regarded as an attempt, even if it doesn't have a big effect, Teng Snake's side will not lose any straw, although there are no more than three large haystacks in the tribe, but it is enough for daily consumption, at least until the black feather retreats, or completely repels them, it is not a problem.
Although the number of people lost by the black feather is still more than that of the Teng Snake, this can be counted as all the people who survived, and if the wounded are counted, it is not so obvious, at most there are only sixty or seventy more people than the Teng Snake, which is still higher.
Most of the injured people still have foot injuries, and although they can walk, they will be affected to some extent, at least their speed is difficult to improve.
As for those who were attacked by javelins, bows and arrows, and slings, the injuries were even more serious, and although they did not pose a threat to their lives, it was impossible to achieve full recovery in a short time.
Even if you can continue to participate in the war, it will be affected somewhat.
What Song Xuan wants to do now is to consume as much of the enemy's vital strength as possible, as long as Teng Snake and Wu Yu can reach a relatively balanced state, even if there are fewer people in Wu Yu, but Teng Snake's is the defensive side after all.
In this aspect alone, the dark clouds will suffer a lot, of course, now Song Xuan also has the confidence to completely defend it, and he may have been a little worried before, but the enemy lost so many manpower after the first round of attacks, and if he wants to attack again, the price paid will definitely not be too small, if he is not fully prepared, Song Xuan does not think that the dark clouds will be so risky.
It is certainly possible for the black feather to rush in, but the result will definitely be a lose-lose situation, and there is even a possibility of failure.
In any case, at least in the eyes of the Black Feather Tribe, Teng Snake is just a small tribe on the run.
And it is obviously impossible for three hundred soldiers to be able to fight in Teng Snake, even if it is seventy people, Song Xuan feels that he has touched the bottom line of the Wuyu tribe.
It's so troublesome to attack the Teng Snake, so what should you do with the other tribes?
Of course, Song Xuan didn't want Wu Yu to retreat like this, and consuming it with Teng Snake here was the thing he was most happy to see. The more people who die here, the smaller the gap between Teng Snake and them, not to mention that the people who are left here are all adult males.
