Chapter 193 Preparation for War

A dozen red-haired man-eating giant apes, this is a very terrifying concept. I remember the first time Luo Chong encountered the monster, there were more than a dozen people on his side, and there were two Deinonychus raiding the formation, while the other side had only one man-eating ape, and finally won at a heavy price.

In that battle alone, two people from the Han tribe died, many were seriously injured, and even one of Huishan's tusks was broken off. What a terrible fighting force, and this time, there are more than a dozen

"How many people are there in your tribe, where are they, are they on this side of the stream or that side, how far away from here, how many enemies do you see, that is, how many of those monsters are there, how many people, how they attack your tribe, can you tell me in detail?" Luo Chong asked with a heavy face.

These people can escape to the vicinity of the Han tribe, which means that those monsters are not far away. Luo Chong can't help but take it seriously. This is a matter of life and death for the Han tribe.

"There are more than 80 people in our tribe. It is seven days' journey from here, and we have been running all the time. If we walk, it will take eight or nine days."

"Then have you crossed the river?" Luo Chong asked.

"No, our tribe is also on this side of the river, so we don't need to cross the river."

"Then tell me how many enemies there were, and how did they attack your tribe?"

"There were about fifteen or sixteen of the monsters I just mentioned. It was very chaotic at the time, and we were only focused on escaping, so we didn't see how many there were. The other male warriors had white totems painted on their bodies. There were more than two hundred, and I couldn't count them.

They attacked our residence during the day, and our hunting and gathering teams were all outside at the time, which meant us.

The first ones to come were those monsters. They were very powerful, and no one could beat them. The elders told us to escape and not to save them, so we had to escape first.

Then when we were running away, those warriors with totems painted on their bodies chased us, so we kept running and fought back several times.

We threw javelins and stone axes at them, but they blocked them. Their warriors held a large board made of rattan, and the weapons we threw at them were blocked by that thing. Then they used those weapons to hit us, but we had nothing to block them. More than a dozen people died on the way to escape, and only we survived."

Cannibals, rattan shields?

Could it be that the rattan shield that fell off when he led the Tree Tribe to fight the cannibals in the jungle for the first time was taken back by those few who slipped through the net, and because they suffered the loss of not having a shield that time, they also realized the defensive role of the shield in battle, so they imitated and made it themselves?

This statement is the most plausible and the most reasonable explanation. Otherwise, why would the cannibals suddenly equip their warriors with rattan shields?

As for imitation and manufacturing, that thing is actually not difficult. The smart ones can learn it after a few glances, and mass production is not difficult.

From this situation, it can be analyzed that this group of enemies should belong to the same force as the cannibals that the Han Tribe encountered several times.

The first time was the team of 40 people that the Tree Tribe encountered, but the few who slipped through the net took the broken rattan shield that was abandoned by Luo Chong back home.

Then they launched a revenge operation, and then they must have sent people to the Dark Forest to look for the traces of Luo Chong and his group, but Luo Chong had already taken the Tree Tribe back home and had not been to the Dark Forest for a long time, so they never found it.

But they never gave up, and they were still active in the Dark Forest, searching for Luo Chong's traces.

Then came the encounter in early spring when the Han tribe was mining for the second time. Or maybe it can't be called an encounter. The other party should have been ready to take revenge, otherwise why would their team increase in number? They also sent a super fighter to support them. They were looking for trouble.

What they didn't expect was that even their super fighter died there. This situation finally attracted their attention. Electronics are very difficult to use, so they sent more fighters to take the initiative and look for this tribe that has a deep hatred for them.

This time it was even more exaggerated. There were more than 200 warriors sent out, equipped with rattan shields learned from Luo Chong. The number of giant cannibals increased to more than a dozen. Their target was also very clear, which was the Han tribe.

Tsk, this is very troublesome.

Calculating the time, since these people can escape to the Han tribe, the cannibal army must not be far away. The Han tribe must make preparations early. After thinking for a while, Luo Chong called the tribe's senior leaders and began to assign tasks to them.

"Shouya, starting from tomorrow, the hunting patrol team should not go out hunting anymore. You assign those horned deer riders and send one to the tribe to tell them that the enemy will attack our tribe in the near future. Stop the material distribution for these days.

Send another person to Babaoshan to inform Dashu and others to come back. The mine will be temporarily closed. Anyway, the mountain is there and they can't escape.

All the ox carts pulling ore in Hedong will stop transporting. After joining Dashu and others, they will come back in a big circle to prevent being tracked by the enemy. Be careful not to leave a tail behind.

In addition, send another person to inform the few people guarding the boat at the edge of the forest to come back by boat immediately. They can't stay there. It's very dangerous. The enemy may find them first."

"Yes, chief." Shouya clasped his fists and accepted the order.

"Remember to be quick. As soon as it gets light tomorrow and you can see the road clearly, set off immediately. Go and come back quickly. Make arrangements now." Luo Chong said seriously.

"Yes, I got it. I'll make the arrangements now."

"Well, the logging team, don't go up the mountain tomorrow, stay in the tribe, the gathering team will also stay, the fishing team will work as usual, but people will be sent to monitor the surrounding two miles. If there is any situation, throw away the things and return immediately." Luo Chong made arrangements again.

The leaders of the logging team and the gathering team also responded to the order...

"Chief, what will we eat these days? If the enemy doesn't come, we can't stay at home all the time. Eating fish alone may not be enough." The elder said worriedly.

"Organize the tribesmen, after dinner, we will rush to harvest the rice overnight. Harvest the rice first. We can't wait for the enemy to come and destroy it. During this period, we will eat rice first. If it is not enough,

kill rabbits, kill alpacas, and if it doesn't work, kill cattle. Our tribesmen must not be scattered. We must unite all those who can fight. The enemy is very powerful and we can't relax." Luo Chong said firmly.
