Some of them are similar to raising pets, some tend to be cooperative and symbiotic, and some are like enshrining and acknowledging their masters, ups and downs like fierce beasts.
"How long will it take if we make a detour?"
"This forest is very large. According to the information given by your senior brother, the lord, if we don't pass by here, we will need to go around for nearly a month and a half, which has a big difference to our plan."
Hearing this, Li Hong looked at Ma Wu deeply, "Can you persuade them to leave?"
Ma Wu shook his head slightly, as if he didn't have the confidence to persuade the native tribes on the opposite side to leave.
Seeing Mawu's expression, Li Hongshen's eyes became sharp all of a sudden, his lips pursed slightly, and he gritted his teeth.
"Kill, kill and pass through."
After hearing Li Hongshen's order, the people in the front row immediately pulled out their hand crossbows from their waists, and fired consecutively at many soldiers on the opposite side.
Before the other fighters could react, Li Hongshen's team had already charged in front of them. After a short confrontation, Li Hongshen and others won a crushing victory.
And Ma Wu didn't feel any discomfort after seeing it. A few years ago, when Ma Wu's business was just started, he was somewhat uncomfortable, and sometimes he would comfort Li Hongshen a few times, but after following his method several times, he found that It's still so good.
According to Ma Wu, the battles between the indigenous tribes generally do not hurt the public, but they will fight individually first, the winner can get the spoils, and the loser can also retain a certain amount of strength.
Because if there is a large-scale battle, not to mention that the lord may intervene and the two sides will persuade the fight, or the beasts may take advantage of it, so the aborigines will maintain a certain bottom line.
When the natives and the lords collide, they generally avoid each other. After all, the lords don't do things that don't bring any benefits, but when necessary, the two sides will inevitably fight, and the lords generally have the upper hand. Indigenous tribes were either eliminated or incorporated into tribes.
It seems to be the same now, a detour for a month and a half will have an inevitable impact on Li Hongshen's plan. You must know that in two more months, the long summer will end.
After the long summer is the rainy season, if they can't reach the target city before the end of the long summer, then they will have to march in bad weather.
And the most serious situation is that if they can't arrive at the destination before the end of the rainstorm season, then they will have to face the impact of the beast horde in the wild. These things, including Ma Wu, are not willing to see.
Because the risks are uncontrollable, what will happen is completely unpredictable. The optimistic point is to survive the beast tide and continue on the road, almost being swept out of the endless wilderness. This is definitely not something Li Hongshen can tolerate.
He wants to stand at the forefront of this year's students of Pengcheng No. [-] Middle School, instead of becoming the laughing stock of the school. If he is kicked out of the endless wilderness in less than a week after entering school, then he really deserves to be socialized. Death, even in the future, may not find a wife.
After restraining the corpses of these warriors a little, Li Hongshen let the Storm Eagle start patrolling the mountain. Everyone was ready to fight the herd of beasts, and the herd of tigers was not so easy to mess with.
Chapter 77 Songshan Fights the Tiger
With the advance of Li Hongshen and others, the atmosphere gradually became more intense, because the small beasts that had been scurrying about on the pine tree disappeared, and the tiger's paw prints and urine traces also appeared on the trunk.
The pine tree that needs three or four people to hug it has several gaps in the trunk, which looks like it was dug out by several spoons side by side.
But Li Hongshen knew that this kind of tree was regarded as a kind of hardwood, and its trunk was full of oil and extremely tough. The age of the tree for more than a hundred years and the abundant energy environment of the wilderness made these pine trees extremely hard and heavy.
Only warrior-level leaders using weapons inscribed with shamanic characters can leave marks on the tree trunk. Ordinary iron objects can only have shallow scratches on them, and they will disappear with a single touch.
And now, the one who left traces in patches like this must be the so-called tiger, that is, the tiger king of the Songshan tiger group.
Such a scene made Li Hongshen and others more careful, and the speed of travel slowed down a lot. If they can cross Songshan Mountain without encountering each other, that would be the best choice.
But the reality proved that Li Hongshen was thinking too much.
Accompanied by the howling of tigers one after another and the chirping of storm eagles in the sky, many tigers came out of the woods in front of Li Hongshen. Black, gold, white, and three colors alternated on the bodies of tigers and beasts.
The huge cat face and Nie Ren's vertical eyes make people feel chills, and they make a sound like snoring, which makes people's heart jump.
Li Hongshen and the others stopped and looked at the group of tigers in front of them. It was beyond Li Hongshen's expectation to be discovered so quickly, but after the encounter, Li Hongshen was not so surprised.
"Kill, kill all the tiger beasts in front of you, don't let any go."
Li Hongshen didn't hesitate, nor could he bear it. Tigers can't reason with you. You can't retreat at this time. If you retreat, you will take a detour. If you retreat, the tiger will eat you.
After hearing Li Hongshen's words, Zhao Yun took the lead and led the people out with a bone spear in his hand. The others maintained the defensive circle mode. The round shield formed two circles, and the spear was erected in the gap. Li Liang and Sha Wu began to cast spells continuously, The soldiers bless the state.
Then the team collided with the tiger group as expected, and the tragic fight was staged in this mountain forest. Li Hongshen and others were on their way, and the leaders sacrificed their lives for the benefit of the lord, while the tiger group It is for survival, and also for the newly born cubs in the clan land.
The battle lasted for 3 hours, and when all the tigers and beasts were wiped out, Li Hongshen and the others did not stop on the battlefield, nor did they have time to restrain the corpses of their comrades, but directly rushed towards the direction the tigers came from.
"Fortunately, I came in time, and I knew what these beasts would do."
Li Hongshen was holding three black, white and gold cubs, and said with some gratitude.
In the wilderness, if a herd of predators is about to perish, the remaining mature ferocious beasts in the clan will kill all the cubs to ensure that the cubs walk very peacefully.
This time, because of the storm eagle, Li Hongshen held back the remaining tigers including the Songshan Tiger King. After they successfully dealt with the tiger group, they came here and successfully harvested 56 tigers. young.
And what made Li Hong the most happy was the three cubs of King Tiger in his arms. They seemed to be a few laps bigger than the average cubs by nature, and all of them didn't open their eyes. They looked extremely cute.
And this also let Li Hongshen know why Tiger King didn't lead the group of beasts in the incoming group of beasts, but stayed here to guard the house.
Because the tiger king here is a tigress, and she has just given birth and has not recovered, so it did not cause any trouble to Li Hongshen and others.
But even so, Li Hongshen's tribe still paid for the lives of eight soldiers. They were soldiers who followed Zhao Yun and Li Li to charge and kill outside the defensive circle.
It was also because of their constant charge and division of the tiger group that the pressure on the defensive circle remained consistent and did not cause the defensive circle to break.
Li Hongshen didn't stop after he searched the tiger's clan. He asked someone to bring the tiger's corpse, and then went back to collect the corpse of his own warrior.
He watched the corpses of these soldiers being divided in the raging fire. He did not shed tears or sorrow, but only had strength and patience.
He had already prepared in his heart very early on, and the words that kindness does not command soldiers have always been engraved in his heart. On the road of being a lord, the sacrifice of the people is inevitable.
There has always been a saying in civilization that the lord's chair is erected high above the bones of those lords. He agrees with this sentence very much. When he encountered casualties for the first time, he was a little sad and sad. Seeing that he had been with him for a long time Many soldiers died because of their own decisions, which made him feel guilty and sad.
But I don't have time to indulge in this kind of emotion, and I can't express these emotions. They all sacrificed for their lord Li Hongshen, and I can't waste their sacrifices.
Expand the lord's space, collect the ashes of the soldiers, move the corpses of tigers and beasts, transplant the found spiritual plants, and the most cherished dozen or so purple spirit pine wood.
The tiger cubs were taken into the zoo, where professional veterinarians would train them. None of these tiger cubs had opened their eyes. The caregivers here would feed them with goat milk, and when they were ready to eat, they would be replaced with minced meat. Feed.
As for the bigger ones, the ones that have opened their eyes will all be killed, because at this time the tiger beasts have already begun to have the ability to move and start to remember things, so there is a high probability that they are not well-raised.
Therefore, Li Hongshen was not prepared to waste time and resources on training, to gamble on those probabilities, more than 50 tiger cubs were enough, or even a little too much.
If they can't reach the target city as planned this time, Li Hongshen's territory may not be able to afford the work of raising these big stomach kings in a few years.
A thousand meters away from the Fengqigu mountain castle, you can see a huge stone tablet made of gray-white stone bricks, one of which has some gray-black names appearing there.
This is the monument erected by Li Hongshen. There are dozens of shaman scripts arranged by Mawu, and the names of the sacrificed soldiers are recorded on it, including the few warriors who died when they first explored the wilderness. Their bones are all buried under the stone monument.
The dominoes and ashes of the soldiers were placed at the foot of the stele, and they slowly merged into the stele, and then eight new gray and black names were added to the stele.
Li Hongshen stood in front of the stele and remained silent for a while, then took over the lord's space again and led everyone to move on.
