Chapter 21: warrior
Chapter 21 Warriors
"Why haven't you attacked yet?"
Outside the valley, a young savage asked a little anxiously.
He has a horse face, dark skin, and a strong figure. Around his neck is a necklace made of animal teeth.
Experienced hunters should be able to see that these are all tiger tusks.
And this is exactly the custom of a famous tribe in the Scarlet Mountains—the Huya Tribe.
The warriors of this tribe regard hunting tigers as their highest honor. After killing a tiger with their own hands, they will take off the longest and sharpest tusk and string them into a necklace to hang on their chests to show their pride. own bravery.
The savage who spoke just now had dense fangs hanging from his neck, and the longest of them exceeded five inches.
From this, one can imagine how huge the tigers hunted and killed were once.
Beside this person, stood two young savages who looked very similar to him. The tiger tooth necklaces on their chests were also densely packed, making people look sideways.
These three are the three sons of the chief of the Huya tribe, the most powerful tribe in this mountain area, the famous "Three Brave Brothers".
The eldest is Cheka, the second is Chimu, and the third is Cheman.
After discovering the traces of the pioneering team, the three brothers began to summon the warriors of the nearby tribes, and prepared to drive these damned river people out of their territory together. In dealing with the Hewan people, they are natural allies.
However, since they found that there were more than 200 well-equipped and well-trained soldiers in the pioneering team, the three brothers did not act rashly, but followed secretly while waiting for the gathering of warriors from various tribes.
When the pioneering team arrived at the destination and began to build the camp, Cheka became a little anxious.
Because he can see that the valley chosen by these cunning river benders is a place that is extremely conducive to defense. If they really let them build a solid camp there, or even a castle, the wildlings will lose control of this land forever right.
At this time, under the prestige of the Huya tribe, the three brothers had already gathered more than 2,000 savage warriors, but Cheka still did not dare to attack rashly.
After all, when facing the regular army in Hewan, the savages were at a complete disadvantage in terms of equipment and physical fitness. Unless they had a numerical advantage of more than ten times, they would never dare to confront them head-on.
Although the current strength has reached ten times, but because the Hewan people occupy the valley, the Cheka still wants to wait for more wildlings to support them.
However, as time goes by, the people of Hewan will also build more defensive facilities. Therefore, the Cheka is not fighting or delaying now, and it is a bit of a dilemma.
In desperation, he sent people to carry out sneak attacks and harassment, trying to delay the construction of the camp, and at the same time test the combat effectiveness of these Hewan people. By the way, he also arrested two sentinels who came out to inquire about the situation.
Unexpectedly, those Hewan people reacted extremely violently, as if they had been stabbed in a hornet's nest. In the evening, hundreds of heavily armed soldiers came out of the valley, trying to find their companions.
This made Cheka happy instead of surprised.
Because he just learned from the two river bend sentinels he captured that there are more than two hundred soldiers in this pioneering team, half of them are the elite troops of the Tyrell family, and the other half are the pioneering knights. The recruits who had just been recruited before leaving.
Now, the most elite army of the Tyrell family has all left the camp!
this is a good chance!
As an excellent hunter, Cheka never hesitates when the prey reveals its weakness.
So, when it was confirmed that the soldiers of the Tyrell family had gone far, he decisively ordered an attack on the camp of the people of the river bend.
In his opinion, how could more than a hundred recruits and a waste knight who was said to be a well-known waste knight among the nobles in the river bay, be able to stop the attack of more than 2,000 warriors even if they had a good location.
However, when the battle really started, things gradually went wrong.
The resistance in the camp was unexpectedly strong. The narrow and deep valley mouth seemed to be an invisible abyss, constantly devouring the lives of the savage warriors.
"Should be rushing in." The third child Qiman was actually a little anxious, but he still calmed down, "The Hewan people only have more than a hundred recruits in the camp, and they should have suffered heavy casualties by now."
"Where are our warriors? After fighting for so long, how many casualties have there been?" A tribal leader who came to help couldn't help asking.
This question caused everyone to fall into silence.
Under the darkness, no one knew the casualties.
Only the sound of brutal fighting was heard, and a strong smell of blood was smelled.
The boss Cheka suddenly stood up, drew his knife and said:
"I will personally lead people to charge!"
Hearing this, everyone beamed with joy. It seemed that as long as the number one warrior of the Huya tribe went into battle in person, the enemy would immediately collapse.
Cheka just took a few steps, but found himself being held back.
"What's wrong Cheman?"
Cheman approached his eldest brother, lowered his voice and said:
"Brother, the more I think about it, the more I feel something is wrong. This is probably a trap deliberately set by the people of Hewan!"
Cheka froze for a moment: "What trap?"
"Brother, think about it carefully, if the camp in front of you can't be attacked for a long time, and at this time, the army of the Tyrell family that left before suddenly came back, what would happen?"
Cheka's eyes widened suddenly, but in the next second, they narrowed again.
He patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said:
"What you said makes sense, but we can't retreat now. You and Chimu stare behind you. If the army of the Tyrell family really comes back, hold it against me! As long as I rush into the valley, this battle It was us who won! All those people in Hewan must die!"
After speaking, Cheka turned around and strode away without hesitation.
Cheeman secretly sighed.
He knew that what the elder brother said was right, it was a bit late to wake up now.
Most of the savage warriors are crowded in the valley at this time, and it is difficult to retreat. What's more, if they really escape undefeated, the reputation of the Huya tribe will be completely ruined in the future.
So, up to now, the three brothers can only advance, not retreat!
Just as Cheka gritted his teeth secretly, a savage suddenly ran over and shouted in a panic:
"It's not good, the river bend army that left before has come back!"
Qieman's heart skipped a beat, and he secretly thought that he had been tricked.
But at this time, he knew that he must not panic, otherwise this improvised savage alliance might fall apart.
So, facing the people who were stunned by the news, Qieman smiled calmly and said loudly:
"What are you afraid of! It's only a hundred or so soldiers from Hewan. I will bring three hundred warriors with me, and I will definitely be able to stop them!"
Infected by Qieman's courage, everyone regained their calm, and immediately expressed their appreciation for the bravery of the "Three Huya Brothers".
Cheman also knew that it was not too late, so he immediately found his second brother Chimu, called more than 300 wildling warriors, and quickly lined up outside the valley to meet the Tyrell family army that appeared behind him.
Looking at the menacing army in front of him, Cheman suppressed his worries and forced himself to calm down.
So what if it’s a trap?
As one of the three most outstanding warriors of the Huya tribe, Cheeman has walked on the edge of life and death countless times.
But not once did he leave his back to the enemy!
"Warriors of the mountain, follow me, go!"
