Before and after each battle, Xu Chen would always convene all officers to meet to discuss plans, and would also discuss and summarize experiences and lessons learned afterwards.

This is the first time Lei has followed Xu Chen out, and the first battle is to face the Five Ghosts.

Although the process of recapturing the Five Ghosts Clan was very frustrating at the beginning, it ended up making him obeyed and even grateful without a single soldier. The entire Five Ghosts Clan respected Xu Chen like a god.

This is not just the demon who led Xu Chen to shoot and kill five-headed, human-faced and bird-body.

It is the courage and wisdom he showed in it, and through communication, he gained recognition and gratitude from the great witches and people of the Five Ghost Clan.

In the end, not only saved the Five Ghosts Clan, but also allowed Xu Chen to get everything he wanted.

Although he had never encountered other tribes on the way from the Five Ghosts to this big lake, Xu Chen guided them to identify directions based on the characteristics and distribution of sun, moon, stars, and plants. Without any map, he traveled through mountains, river valleys and poisonous forests, and finally found the neighbor tribes mentioned by these Five Ghosts Great Witches.

"Warning war, strong force is certainly the key to victory, but the current situation of each tribe does not support us to lead more hunters to leave the tribe and explore outside for a long time. Therefore, many times we have to win through other methods, which has high requirements for military commanders. Remember to give full play to the advantages of wisdom, especially in unfamiliar environments. For example, the Tsakha tribe, we do not understand at all, and we cannot mobilize more reinforcements, so we need to minimize the conflict of force..."

There was nothing wrong, Xu Chen began to exchange some of his experiences and ideas about military command with Lei.

Although he is also a military novices, he is definitely considered a military expert for these primitive people.

Mo and a group of officers came up from all around to listen carefully, and tried hard to absorb Xu Chen's command experience with respect.

For them, every word Xu Chen said needs to be carefully understood and pondered, and then they will feel that they will benefit a lot.

It is precisely under this constant communication and guidance that the military literacy of a group of officers has been constantly improving, and their understanding of war and conquest has become clearer.

For these humans scattered in the vast mountains, rivers and primitive wilderness, foreign exchanges have always been what they desire the most.

Because only by communication can we obtain more information, more trading opportunities, more knowledge, and continuously improve the survival ability of the tribe and eventually grow and reproduce.

Although war exists forever, the casualties brought by war are a price that cannot be afforded by all tribes.

Just like this conflict with the Ming clan, although it won, it also brought a lot of trouble to Xu Chen and the others.

No one was the naughty man who went out on a raft on the first day. He had been struggling for more than a month to communicate with different tribes. In addition, under the influence of Xu Chen's continuous guidance and education and subtle influence, their understanding of war and conquest was constantly changing.

Starting from Xu Chen's first conquering the Gonghuo tribe by plundering the population and punishing the conquest of the Gonghuo tribe, these primitive people began to have different understandings of the war between tribes while suddenly enlightening.

First of all, fighting is not just about killing people, eating people, seizing territory and robbing animal skin food. In fact, population is the most important wealth.

Second, conquest is mainly based on wisdom, do not easily have large-scale head-on conflicts, and strive to minimize casualties from oneself and even the enemy.

Third, it is best to convince the other party of the ending of the war. Do not deal with the prisoners too cruelly after victory. Inspire them through warm means, so that they can accept and be willing to integrate while surrendering.

Fourth, capturing the thief first is always the best way to war. Grab and treat the other party's great witches and women and children well, forcing men to surrender and admit defeat.

Fifth, if you are forced to do a large-scale military operation, you must not give the enemy any chance with the thunder.

Sixth, consultation and planning are important, and never launch an attack that is not very sure.

Especially in unfamiliar and complex environments, excellent equipment and good training cannot give them too many advantages in force. Once they are besieged by hundreds of people or fall into a very dangerous environment, it will cause great damage and danger to their side.

A miserable victory means failure.

A defeated battle is the first option to be excluded.

This is the problem that the team in front of us faces.

The environment is unfamiliar, the number of people on the other side is obviously superior, the labor force on the expedition is exhausted, the weapons are insufficient, and there may even be a large number of unknown dangers hidden nearby.

If the Thorns and Clans join forces with several tribes into meadow swamps or poisonous environments, they will eventually suffer heavy casualties and even be destroyed.

Therefore, facing this small victory of the Ming clan today, almost all the hunters did not have the same passionate howling to attack the Ming clan as before. Instead, they were very low-key and forbearable, because everyone began to understand that if a big battle really broke out here, the final outcome would be very bad.

After following Xu Chen out to the present, he had conquered two large tribes one after another, but no one of them was killed or injured. This was completely like a miracle.

Although Xu Chen always said that the great witches were guided by them and the gods were favoring them, judging from the real contact and conquest with different tribes one after another, Xu Chen's command was the key to victory.

He can always use the smallest cost and special appeal to make the other party's great witch surrender and ultimately completely surrender.

This powerful personal charm is beyond the reach of Lei and Mo and others, and they can only admire it.

And they also grew rapidly under Xu Chen's continuous demonstration and point-promotion education.

Especially Lei, Mo, Feng, and even Long who did not go out this time, Xu Chen needed them to grow up as soon as possible and become a group of commanders and generals with strategic vision, and put foreign wars and victory at a higher level to judge and analyze what to do to be the most beneficial to the development of tribes and even human civilization, rather than just being limited to an optional victory.

In fact, Lei has already seen the situation today.

As long as you find the nest of the Ming clan, it will definitely not be a big problem to attack. After all, it is just a small tribe with a size of 100 people, but what should you do after the battle?

Given their fear of the curse suffered by the Five Ghosts, and they would rather die than lead the way, it can be seen that the people of these tribes have a soul-born fear of the curse, and they are not willing to communicate at all, and they may even list them as the most dangerous enemies.

Therefore, even if the Ming clan was captured, it would be impossible to steal the tower again. They would definitely run away and go to the Thorns clan to report the news.

The final outcome is that in order to completely eliminate curses and diseases to the alliance tribe, the Tshu Clan will definitely kill Xu Chen and others without any room for casualties.

In this way, the two sides have no room for exchanges and easing.

The accumulated hatred can only be resolved through large-scale wars.

This is not what Xu Chen wants, nor is it his purpose for this trip.

This time he was an exploration and discovery journey, and was to discover as many tribes as possible, find more suitable habitats and more useful resources, and accumulate more foundations for future development.

Instead of making enemies everywhere and blocking the road to future development, you can only rely on the army and war to open the way.

It was sunset and dusk, and the sky was getting darker.

The vast lake slowly enveloped the night, and the mist began to spread between the lake surface and the vast meadows of the lake.

In the dense forests around, wild beasts roared and roared everywhere, one after another, as if they were more than a voice.

In the dark woods, a bonfire was still burning, and a circle of simple tents were set up around. Most of the people were resting and falling asleep. There was only a group of hunters who were at night, sitting by the bonfire, gnawing on some scorched meat bones or cutting and grinding bow and arrow weapons and talking in a low voice.

The sky is covered with stars and moons, reflecting the hazy world of water, light and smoke around the lake below, which is beautiful and as if it is a fairyland.

Seven or eight miles away from the site of Xu Chen and others, on a small hill, this is the habitat of the Ming tribe.

Hundreds of men, women, young and old live in dense forests with gentle slopes. They have no tree holes or crypts. Instead, they are simple houses built with wooden sticks, vines, stones, grass, leaves, animal skins, etc., based on some trees.

These buildings, like beaver nests, are connected one by one, forming a large area in the woods, and look spectacular.

Perhaps, the creativity of their buildings is to like to build dams in rivers.

Although it does not have the prototype of a house, it has some simple functions. In many places, there are obvious traces of tied with tree bark, etc., which shows that these nests are not built randomly, but have some rules and rules.

But no matter what, these buildings are not yet separated from the category of wild animals and are still in a wild state, and have a long development history from real houses.

If it were on weekdays, after the sun set, men, women, and young men of the Ming clan would have already entered their nests to rest.

But today the entire tribe was extremely frightened.

Several hunters who escaped early brought back a news that was extremely scary. The Five Ghosts who were driven away by the curse of the gods back then were back.

They also brought more powerful helpers, all wearing strange animal skin clothes, holding powerful weapons that they had never seen before, and could be killed silently from a distance. They are nearby now, and they might be called tomorrow.

This news caused the entire tribe to panic. After discussing with the terrified clan leader and several family leaders, they arranged a team of hunters to take torches to report the news overnight.

After all, the curse of the gods of the Five Ghosts tribes not only threatens the Ming clan, but also the survival and safety of the entire Thorn Fork Alliance.

After sending off the hunters who reported the news, many hunters set out to visit the neighborhood where Xu Chen and others appeared. After dark, they met several injured companions who escaped back.

And these companions brought back a news that was even more frightening but very surprised.

This is a powerful tribal alliance with very mysterious skills.

They may be a team of more than three completely different groups of hunters.

They can use just one stick to get fire out of the wood.

In addition, they will use wooden sticks and animal skins to build nests that are easier to use than the tribe's nest.
