Chapter 31 Helpless Coping Tactics

Aside from the woods on the river bank, hundreds of animal-skin tent camps were densely packed. A blazing bonfire surrounded the camp to drive away the cold air and wild animals, and more than a dozen burly soldiers were burning fires around the camp to alert them.

In the largest tent, centurion Hu and Lu, also the patriarch of this tribe, convened a meeting with ten ten husbands and today's witness Batu.

Just now, everyone received the oracle from the ancestor god. The oracle only had one sentence: "The Bear God appears"! This made the clan leader who had previously criticized Batu for being nonsense immediately realize the seriousness of the problem. For the Dulei God clan who had difficulty reproduction, dying a clan member is definitely a major loss, just as missing a male horse means losing a herd, let alone let alone let down the god-giving training that the ancestor god has given for many years.

In fact, Batu doesn't believe in the Bear God very much, but now the ancestor god has issued an oracle to confirm it, and the Agula brothers are also dead. The shock in Batu's heart is imaginable.

So the question that everyone is discussing now is "What to do?" For a long time, the oracle of the ancestor god has been as concise and direct as a guide light in the dark, but this time the oracle does not know what to do.

A ten-husband began to express his opinion: "I think this is the ancestor god who is not clear about the information of this bear god and cannot give us instructions, so what we have to do is to reconnaise this bear god and provide more information to the ancestor god."

The patriarch shook his head: "It's not that simple. The ancestor god will tell us to 'adapt to adapt to the situation' without knowing the information, but this time I didn't even say that I could adapt to the situation! Batu, you have seen the bear god, tell me."

Batu said in a muffled voice: "This bear is really too big. I have never seen such a big bear. I even shot ten poisonous arrows, and it has nothing to do. Brother Agula believes that this bear god is an apostle sent by the god of heaven. I think it is indeed a bit eye-catching. Now the ancestor god has issued a special order. I think it should be the ancestor god correcting his wrong understanding."

The patriarch nodded: "It makes sense! This time, the apostle and the bear god appeared at the same time, which is indeed strange and unusual. Agula cannot make a mistake if he has this idea. Once we get the wrong goal, the consequences will be very serious."

Another ten-master said: "Our goal is to always give priority to the elimination of the apostle tribe, and this time it is the same. It's just that a bear god may pose a threat to us, so the ancestor god specifically reminded me. The ancestor god has neither changed its main policy, but because he does not understand the bear god, it is not convenient to avenge the bear god. But I think the ancestor god must still have some ideas about the bear god, as long as we have the spare energy to eliminate the apostles!"

Everyone nodded: "It makes sense! If it were the ancestor god, if you discovered the divine beast, you would definitely possess it, but the divine beast must be strong. Because the death of Agula was not at ease with our strength, the ancestor god did not mention anything to adapt to the situation. Obviously, he did not want us to trouble the divine beast too early."

The patriarch finally gave an instruction: "It seems that this is the case! Then we destroy this apostle first, and then find a way to deal with this bear god. It is still the original plan to collect forage and feed the war horses tomorrow during the day, and then attack the tribe on the other side during the night!"

Everyone agreed in unison.

Then there was only one last thing left. Batu spoke in confusion: "Captain, my bow... Brother Agula's body is still with the Bear God. I want to find it tomorrow and go to reconnaissance the Bear God. What if the Bear God leaves?"

The one who regrets the most at this time is Batu. The Du Lei God Clan regards the bow as a second life, and the most important and fragile component of the bow is the bow string. When you don’t fight, the bow will not be stitched. Now the bow falls into the snow and is likely to be damaged. Once it is damaged, Batu becomes a salted fish and there is basically no possibility of making military achievements.

The patriarch frowned: "You go alone?"

Batu said in a muffled voice: "Please send at least one person to accompany me. If I have any accidents, at least someone will come back to report the news."

The patriarch asked everyone: "What do you mean?"

Although the expedition team with only a hundred people was very tight, and all kinds of people needed to put up horses, pull weeds, chop wood, keep watch, reconnaissance, and guard women, this was not the reason why the fierce race ignored the death of the nobles!

Everyone quickly agreed: "Agula can't die in vain, so let's take the corpse back to see it! Even if the other party is a bear god, he should know how Agula died."

The patriarch said in a deep voice: "Let Haila Khan accompany Batu, give my champion horse to Haila Khan, and find a horse with good physical strength to Batu, so that they can rest well in the roasted horse tent, concentrate today's forage and horse grain to feed them, and then set off early tomorrow morning."

Batu said in shock: "Helakhan! The first warrior will accompany me?"

The patriarch said solemnly: "Faced with the divine beast? Is there anyone more suitable than him?"

...

Wang Qiang and Aduo put their horses along the river bank forest. Wang Qiang saw the results in the test. The horse also gnawed the bark, but the bark was so frozen that it could not be gnawed. The main thing was to use its hooves to dig out the ice and snow to find dead grass, and then pull out the grass roots and eat them together.

What does eating soil mean? That's it! Wang Qiang admires the tenacity of this kind of horse's life and has nothing to say. Wang Qiang remembers the horses raised by the rich in horses in the gambling horse farm. To put it nicely, it is called the noble and noble horse of pure blood. To put it bluntly, it is that the inbreeding resistance is weak, and if you accidentally eat some coarse grains, it will be diarrhea. Compared with those rich horses, this long-haired horse is simply a divine beast! Why is such a strong species extinct?

Well, Qiang Relatively, seeing how hard it was foraging for food, Wang Qiang couldn't bear it anymore, so he picked up more than a dozen kilograms of millet from his bag and fed it.

Now, Wang Qiang can basically confirm three things: First, it is right to choose the start of winter, and the other party is very affected. They have not yet cheated to the point of ignoring the season, especially in this Ice Age. That is to say, once the other party is consumed for a long time, the other party may give up the attack and wait until spring comes again?

2. The other party will not be able to send out many people tomorrow. After all, they are the bear gods. Even if they have the courage to kill gods, they do not have the horse food for killing gods. So at most they will send a few horses to reconnaise the bear gods or recycle the knight's corpse.

3. As long as the other party has not many people and horses and there is not enough horse food, you can go to the mountain to burn beacons and attract them to waste their horses early!

Although the third point is very difficult to operate, the difficulty is not as desperate as I thought before! The key is that my weight and A Duo are not as heavy as the knight, and our mounts are still the dominant. Well, after all, it is 5.0, and what I can think of is really limited. For other unreliable factors, I can only expect that the tribe on the other side of the river can hold the other party up, or the survivors appear...

The war horses that had eaten ten kilograms of horse food have indeed recovered a lot. Wang Qiang and Aduo rode back to the bank of the Bear Cave River again. At this time, Sister Hua and the others were peeling the jackal group and igniting a raging fire again in the Bear Cave. The tribesmen were baking the bloody inner part of the animal skin on the fire.

Seeing Wang Qiang come back, Sister Hua and the others happily said: "Has Chief discovered something?"

Wang Qiang smiled and said, "I found that the enemy may not be very good..."

Speaking of this, Wang Qiang said solemnly: "I have an idea that the enemy will most likely come tomorrow, but the number of people will definitely not be large. I will ignite the fire to pull the enemy away, but I will leave both ice crossbows for you. If someone is not led away, he will find the tree hole where you are. You will continue to use the ice crossbow to guard the hole, just like killing that person today!"

Sister Hua said in surprise: "Give us both weapons? Where is the chief?"

Wang Qiang smiled bitterly and said, "Faced with such a strong opponent, I don't think it's useful to bring weapons. I'm only responsible for running away. The key is to ensure your safety. In short, after you finish the work, go back to the tree hole. The heavy snow tonight should be able to flood your footprints. As long as no one's footprints are left, we can guarantee deception. As for me, I will stay in this bear cave overnight. After all, the horse is too big and cannot enter the tree hole, so I can only live here."

A Duo asked, "Where is me?"

Wang Qiang smiled and said, "You can ride a horse, what do you think?"

A Duo said firmly: "I will stay with the chief!"

Sister Hua said solemnly: "Okay, the two leopard skins we peeled just now have been baked, so we will stay here to keep the chief warm. By the way, since it is safe to leave no human footprints, the peeled jackal group is obviously done by humans, so just burn it with fire."
