The sun rose a little higher, its blood color faded, and it became a little white.
It looked as if he was frightened pale by the continuous drumbeats that were like muffled thunder and the bloody killing below.
Amid the thunderous sound of drums, the leader of the semi-agricultural tribe, holding a thick wooden stick commonly used for hunting in his hand, roared and rushed towards the advancing Green Bird tribe.
He seemed to want to use his roar to drown out the terrifying thunder and give courage to himself and the tribesmen who were rushing over with him.
The people behind him who were running on the snow also started to howl like their leader, but even they themselves didn't know what they were shouting.
The leader of the semi-agricultural tribe did not rush anywhere else. The place he rushed to was the very center of the entire tribal coalition.
To be precise, it was heading directly towards Han Cheng, who was standing on a sled, under the Qingque flag, and beating the drum.
Although he didn't know Han Cheng's identity, from Han Cheng's previous behavior and the fact that everyone followed suit after the drum was beaten, he could tell that Han Cheng's identity was the most honorable among them.
In this case, the time to take action will naturally be to target this most noble person.
As long as this man can be killed, his tribe will be safer and more people will be able to escape.
As the chief of a semi-agricultural tribe who often takes his people hunting, he is fully aware of the important role of the leader.
And, in the middle, there are those damn wolves.
The leader of the semi-agricultural tribe was extremely jealous of these wolves.
If it weren't for these damn guys, how could he not have gotten a glimpse of the secrets of the Green Bird Tribe?
If it weren't for these damn wolves, how could he have made the wrong judgment and thought that the Qingque tribe was just an insignificant little tribe?
His anger towards these wolves was even greater than that of Han Cheng who was standing there beating the drum.
Han Cheng had some admiration for the bravery of the people of this tribe, but he did not stop beating the drum for even a moment.
Because these people's bravery is directed at their tribe!
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…”
Amid the drumbeats, without any need for Han Cheng's orders, the archers of the Qingque tribe shot arrows without hesitation at the people of the Bannong tribe who were running towards them.
While running, some of the people from the semi-agricultural tribe were shot by arrows and fell into a snow pit.
The leader of the semi-agricultural tribe and the rest of the semi-agricultural people ignored all this and just kept rushing forward.
At this moment, they just wanted to have a good fight with those who came to their tribe!
When the leader of the Semi-Agricultural Tribe led his men to attack the tribal coalition, the female priestess of the Semi-Agricultural Tribe, who was not prepared in a hurry, took her men and some food, furs and other things she hurriedly brought with her, and ran towards the gap on the east side of the coalition.
The female priest of the semi-agricultural tribe ran while shouting loudly, asking the tribesmen who had not yet reacted to follow her.
After all, at this time, staying in the tribe will basically not have any good ending. The more people can escape, the greater the possibility that their tribe will be able to develop and grow again in the future.
Those people from the Sheep Tribe who surrendered to the Semi-Agricultural Tribe were completely stunned when they saw the Green Bird flags waving in the wind and the many people armed with weapons surrounding them. They just stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do.
After all, they smeared the leader's blood on their faces with their own hands and surrendered to the tribe.
At this time, the priestess could still make out some sharp shouts amid the drum sounds, and the behavior of many people from the semi-agricultural tribes gathering together and running towards the east brought a glimmer of light into their confused heads.
He immediately stopped being dazed and started running for his life along with the people from the semi-agricultural tribe.
The priestess of the semi-agricultural tribe never felt that she ran so slowly. Although her speed had surpassed most people in the same tribe, she still thought she ran too slowly.
After running so anxiously and desperately, she finally reached the gap and felt a little relieved.
As long as they can break out of the encirclement of these people, with the leader there, the people of their tribe will not be captured by these brutal people.
My tribe is saved!
In such a crisis situation, even if she was as smart as she was, she didn't have time to think about why these sudden and brutal people didn't completely block her tribe, but left such a gap.
On the easternmost side of the opening were some survivors of the Sheep Tribe, holding bronze spears and rattan shields, weapons exclusive to the Green Bird Tribe.
Lao Yang and his men refused to miss the opportunity to come and encircle and suppress the Bannong tribe and avenge their leader.
So Han Cheng also asked them to come.
Moreover, as people who had already joined the Qingque tribe, Han Cheng would naturally not be stingy in treating them. He fully equipped them with things like rattan shields and bronze spears.
Taking into account that they had only been members of the Qingque tribe for a short time and had not received much training, forcing them to mix with the Qingque warriors would only reduce the combat effectiveness of the Qingque warriors. Therefore, Han Cheng separated them out and placed them in the easternmost part.
In addition to the reason mentioned above, there is another reason for putting it here. The people of the Sheep Tribe have a lot of resentment towards the people of the Semi-Agricultural Tribe because of the killing of their leader.
If such resentment finds an opportunity to be vented, after the people of the semi-agricultural tribe become slaves of his own tribe, they will be hanging around under the nose of this person from the sheep tribe every day. If one is not careful, something bad may easily happen.
Han Cheng expected that there would be people from the semi-agricultural tribe escaping from this opening in all likelihood.
Arranging the people of the Sheep Tribe here is just the right opportunity for them to vent their resentment, so that they will do less trouble in the tribe and focus more on herding sheep.
"#4 Die!"
Under the pressure of Han Cheng's rote teaching, Lao Yang also learned some Mandarin.
At this moment, the old sheep no longer had the heartwarming image it had when it was holding the newborn lamb.
At this moment, he was covered in blood and howling loudly. He suddenly exerted force with his arms and stabbed the bronze spear in his hand out fiercely.
A man from a semi-agricultural tribe who was only concerned with escaping for his life was stabbed in the body by his spear.
The man from the semi-agricultural tribe who was stabbed by him didn't even let out a scream. He broke free from the bronze spear that stabbed him, covered his bleeding stomach with his hands, and continued to run forward with staggering steps until he was hit by the people behind him and was stepped on in the snow. He became silent only after the blood in his body was almost drained.
Old Sheep and other members of the Sheep Tribe thrust out their spears once again without much hesitation.
Immediately, several more people from the semi-agricultural tribes were stabbed.
This was not because they were so strong or their killing skills were so sophisticated, but because the people in these semi-agricultural tribes were only concerned with escaping for their lives. No one tried to fight back, and not many people dodged.
Such a scene easily reminded the old sheep of the time when he followed the leader to hunt sheep.
Those sheep are just running without caring about their lives.
The old sheep poked people with the bronze spear in his hand. It was hard to imagine that these people who were running like frightened sheep had brutally killed their leader and attacked their tribe before!
After once again killing a man from a semi-agricultural tribe with a sword, Lao Yang suddenly came to his senses.
He understood the reason behind this.
The reason why there is such a big gap between these people is because they are facing different tribes!
Faced with the ferocious semi-agricultural tribe which was as fierce as a tiger in their own tribe, when they encountered the more powerful Green Bird tribe, they became a flock of sheep which was only concerned with escaping for their lives!
It turns out that when a tribe becomes strong, there are actually such benefits. When a tribe becomes weak, it will be attacked by other tribes.
It turns out that not all big tribes are as kind as the Green Bird Tribe!
Old Sheep suddenly came to his senses, and after stabbing out the bronze spear once again, he thought about the fact that he had joined the powerful Green Bird tribe.
In the future, I must herd the sheep well and let the flock give birth to more lambs, so that the tribe will become stronger. In this way, no other tribe will dare to bully the people in my tribe again!
When the female priest of the Bannong tribe led the other members of the Bannong tribe to rush through the gap and ran hard towards the east of the tribe along the river valley, the leader of the Bannong tribe, after experiencing two rounds of arrow rain, finally brought the survivors and approached the advancing battle formation of the Qingque tribe.
The leader of a semi-agricultural tribe, with a feather arrow stuck in his left forearm.
But at this moment he seemed to feel no pain. Fed up with the rain of arrows, he finally rushed to the front of the battle. He had only one thought in mind, which was to kill all these people!
Especially the man holding two sticks that could make thundering sounds was his main target of attack.
However, when he rushed forward and was ready to smash the guy's head hard, he was shocked to find that the guy had come to the back of the army formation at some point and was blocked by these people who were lined up in rows and holding strange weapons.
This shameless, cowardly, rabbit-like guy!
As the leader of these people, he did not rush to the front, but hid at the back in a despicable way. This is really shameless!
At this moment, the leader of the semi-agricultural tribe felt like his chest was about to explode with anger, and he had the urge to jump up and down and curse.
Han Cheng stared coldly at the big primitive man who was looking at him angrily, but his men did not stop and continued to beat the drums.
He didn't know what the leader of the semi-agricultural tribe was thinking at the moment, and even if he knew, he wouldn't mind at all.
A gentleman does not stand under a wall. As for dangerous things like marching and fighting, I am a person who uses brains, not a peerless general, so naturally I will not rush to the front line.
For me, it is too unwise to rush to the front line.
Because even if he could stab to death two people from the semi-agricultural tribe, it would not be of any benefit to his side which was already sure of victory.
But if you are unlucky enough to be tricked by the people of the semi-agricultural tribe, then it will be a real hassle. A battle that you are sure to win may very likely be lost because of this.
Han Cheng naturally would not do such a disadvantageous thing.
As for hiding behind and failing to inspire morale, there is no need to worry about it.
All the children in the Green Bird Tribe know that the Son of God is not good at fighting.
But even so, the Son of God could come behind the formation and beat the drum for them and others, and watch them fight with his own eyes. How could they not work hard?
The motivation that standing in the rear can bring to the people of the Qingque tribe is even better than the effect of the leader of the Bannong tribe personally leading the people to charge into the battle.
Moreover, from keeping pace with everyone at the beginning to falling behind now, Han Cheng did not turn around and retreat, but just asked Uncle Lu to stop at the right time.
So Han Cheng could proudly pat his chest and say that he was not running backwards, but the people in the tribe were walking too fast.
After discovering that the leader of this tribe was shamelessly hiding behind him, three or four of the people who rushed forward were stabbed down by the weapons shining with golden light in an instant. The attacks from his own tribe's people were blocked by the animal skins covered in these people's hands. The leader of the Bannong tribe, who was eager to engage in close combat with the people of the Qingque tribe, suddenly lost the desire to do so.
Because he suddenly remembered that his biggest task was to attract these shameless and cruel people for a while longer and buy enough time for the female priests to leave.
Instead of fighting these brutal people with weapons.
The weapons these guys extended were really too long, and there were so many of them that the few people who had just died tragically had at least two holes on their bodies.
This was equivalent to several people fighting against one of them. Not only that, because their weapons were too short, they could only passively take the beating.
The leader of the semi-agricultural tribe had never encountered such a humiliating battle.
The shameless tribe in front of him gave him the feeling of a hedgehog that had curled up with all its thorns exposed, making it impossible to eat them!
This feeling is really depressing.
"#￥ER..."
He held a wooden stick in his right hand and waved it wildly in front of his eyes, smashing away some bronze spears that were stabbing at him like poisonous snakes, while shouting at people to back off.
And you can't retreat too far. If you retreat too far, someone in the tribe will attack you with those curved, extremely hateful things.
You can't get too close either. Once you get too close, those weapons shining with golden light will penetrate into your body.
This is the lesson learned by the leader of a semi-agricultural tribe through his own injuries and the deaths of people in his tribe.
It can’t be too far, nor too close; this balance is very difficult to grasp.
So, out of the nearly thirty people who had followed the leader of the Semi-Agricultural Tribe, only five or six are left.
None of the remaining five or six people were intact.
Even the leader of the semi-agricultural tribe had three or four wounds on his body, in addition to the feather arrow on his left forearm, but these wounds were not fatal.
The leader of the semi-agricultural tribe retreated while waving the wooden stick in his hand and looking to the east from time to time.
After seeing that a group of people from his tribe had run out from the gap in the east, and the front group was almost approaching the opening on the other side of the valley, the leader of the Semi-Agricultural Tribe suddenly felt that his light body had regained strength.
As long as she could hold on a little longer and hold these people back a little longer, the female priestess would be able to lead the people of her tribe to run a little longer, and more people in her tribe would be able to survive!
As long as they can return to their original tribe, with the wise female priest around, their tribe will surely grow and develop slowly!
At this time, the leader of the Bannong tribe no longer had much energy and energy to think about other things. All he wanted was to delay the people of the Qingque tribe for a while...
The female priest of the semi-agricultural tribe mixed in the crowd, running hard and fast on the snow.
The rapid running in the snow made her and the others around her breathless with exhaustion, and white air came out of their mouths like water.
But none of them dared to stop and take a rest.
They all knew the critical situation behind it.
The leader and some other people were fighting desperately with those brutal people, but even if they fought desperately, they might not be able to hold out for long.
Because there are just too many of them and they are too powerful!
They had to run now, because if they stayed they would most likely die!
While running, people from the semi-agricultural tribe would occasionally look up at the narrow opening in front of them.
Almost there!
Almost there!
As long as they could run through this hole, they would be further away from those brutal people and would feel a little safer.
The people of the semi-agricultural tribe thought so in their hearts, and the female priest who was running opened her mouth and conveyed the news to everyone in a sharp voice.
The people of the semi-agricultural tribe, encouraged and seeing hope, actually walked a little faster.
They desperately ran towards the hole that was not too far away, with hope...
Shang squatted on the ground, leaning against a cold stone, with his hands in his trousers.
There are more than one people who maintain a similar posture as him. Most of the people who hide their figures here are like this.
Don't get me wrong, it's not that before the battle, they collectively had the awareness of sharpening their weapons before the battle, even if it's disadvantageous, but they wanted to keep their wrists and fingers flexible.
Because soon they'll be having a bondage fest, and they won't be able to have stiff fingers and wrists.
On the coldest mornings, if you squat in a snow cave without moving much, your body will quickly become frozen through.
Although they all wore gloves and carried some wine with them, they still felt the malice from nature.
So Shang and the others put their hands in their trousers.
Although the guys there were so cold that they could hardly touch each other, it was undeniable that this was still the best place on the body to warm up one's hands.
Waiting is the most tormenting thing, especially when it comes to big things.
Shang and the others waited here anxiously for a long time before they finally heard the sound of drums.
The thunder-like sound coming from the direction of the semi-agricultural tribe suddenly cheered up the people hiding there and they immediately became alert.
Some impatient people immediately took their hands out of their trouser pockets and straightened the ropes that had already been laid out, so that they could rush up as soon as possible.
However, the wait after the drum sounded became even more torturous. Some people wanted to go to the entrance of the valley and take a look over there, but when they thought that doing so would most likely cause the arrangement to fail, they had no choice but to endure it and continue to suffer.
“Here it comes!”
Shang, who was leaning against the stone, suddenly perked up and straightened his upper body in an instant.
He took both hands out from his trousers, held the long spear in his right hand, and held the rope in front of him with his left hand.
Without any orders, the other members of the Qingque tribe who were lying in ambush here also became alert and prepared to capture people.
The sharp and penetrating voice of the semi-agricultural tribal priestess is the best signal to be prepared.
Finally reached the valley entrance!
This is the voice of almost all the semi-agricultural tribesmen who have fled here.
A feeling of joy at surviving a disaster enveloped them. Although they knew that it was not safe yet, after coming here, at least some of their tribe members could escape, so that not all of them would be caught or killed by that brutal tribe.
The female priests of the semi-agricultural tribes were feeling roughly the same way at this time.
"thump!"
The person running in the front was just starting to feel happy when his feet suddenly felt empty. Without even a scream, he fell directly into the snow, splashing up a cloud of snow.
This sudden event didn't even allow the rest of the semi-agricultural tribesmen who were running to react.
Some people did not see this scene, and those who saw it just thought that the man slipped and fell on the snow.
After all, many people slip while running.
However, such slips became more frequent and people who were running forward fell into the snow pits one after another.
What's going on? Why are so many people falling down?
The female priest of the semi-agricultural tribe was a little confused.
Just as she began to feel confused, her feet suddenly felt empty and she fell down in a daze.
The fallen female priestess of the semi-agricultural tribe began to struggle frantically, but there was always something tripping her hands and feet, making her movements extremely inconvenient.
After finally getting up covered in snow, I was horrified to find that in this originally deserted place, many strong men suddenly appeared out of nowhere!
These people were dressed the same as the ones who besieged their own tribe, and were now using ropes to roughly tie up the women who had fallen to the ground.
The horrified female priestess of the semi-agricultural tribe was stunned for a moment, and was about to struggle to escape, but a stick swept from the side and knocked her to the ground.
Before she could react, one of them flew over her and rode on her in a violent manner.
He roughly put her arms behind her back and tied her hands and feet very quickly, violently and simply.
By the time the semi-agricultural tribe priestess reacted, the man riding on her had already left. Lying on the ground unable to move, all she could see was the snow that was just a few feet away...
The leader of the semi-agricultural tribe was desperately waving the wooden stick in his hand, retreating as he did so. His body was already stained with blood, and there was no telling how many cuts there were on it.
Everyone around him has died, and he is the only one still struggling to hold on.
Suddenly, his body was blocked by something and he couldn't move back.
It turned out that he had retreated to the base of the house without realizing it.
Four or five long spears shining with golden light stabbed at him at the same time, and the leader of the semi-agricultural tribe, who had no way to retreat, was stabbed.
Several people from the Qingque tribe shouted in unison, exerted force with their hands, and actually lifted up the leader of the Bannong tribe.
Blood dripped down the feet of the semi-agricultural tribal leader like it was free, and peach blossoms bloomed on the snow.
The provoked leader of the semi-agricultural tribe not only did not show any fear of death, but instead a smile appeared on his face.
Because this way, he could see the people in his tribe more clearly.
They have reached the valley entrance, and some of them have managed to escape! Their tribe will not perish!
The next moment, the smile on the face of the Bannong tribe leader froze, as if he had been cast under a spell.
"￥%5!"
He suddenly turned his head and roared in the direction of Han Cheng, swung his still intact right arm, and threw the wooden stick in his hand towards Han Cheng with all his strength.
The stick drew an arc in the air, but before it could even reach three meters, it fell powerlessly into the snow pit, stuck there at an angle...
The leader of the Bannong tribe died with his eyes wide open and a ferocious look on his face. The Green Bird tribe warriors who had picked him up became unhappy when they saw that this guy dared to throw sticks at the respected Son of God when he was dying.
Several people shouted and worked together to throw him out.
The body of the semi-agricultural tribe leader drew an arc in the air, smashed down a roof, and fell into the house...
(Isn't it more comfortable to finish reading it in one go? There will be more in the evening)
