Chapter 49: New Era Part 8: Texas (Part 2)

Colorado, South Bank of the Arkansas River.

A "war" is being held here.

Half of the people on both sides were indeed holding iron weapons, mostly knives, and the rest were wooden sticks, stone axes and other objects. There were also cavalry behind them, but only a few cavalry.

At this time, the Indians had not yet entered the cavalry era on a large scale. That era did not appear until the United States began to advance westward in the 19th century. Therefore, such cavalry was somewhat similar to the Hun cavalry in the Warring States Period in China, and was still in its initial state.

Such a battle has lasted for nearly a month, and there are only a few hundred people left on both sides. It can be imagined that a month ago, they should have a large number of people, and they may have firearms, but now they are gone.

The clothes of both sides are similar. At this time, most of the warriors of the Indian nomadic tribe wore feather crowns, and those who are not qualified to obtain the feather crowns are not qualified to participate in the battle.

It's just that the main gods who believe in both sides are different.

They are all used to wearing their patron saints, a ghost mask carved with animal bones or wood, on their faces. It can be seen that one side is the Apache people from the west. Their patron saints are a ghost mask with only eyes exposed, while the Comanche people's mask has two more horns.

Yes, although the Apaches are famous for their reputation in the Midwest Prairie in the future, the Comanches are the real cow hunters and the most brutal and fearless horn killer.

At this time, most of the Indian nomadic tribes lived in their bison herds, but their approach was different. Of course, it was similar to attracting bison to the edge of the cliff with one or two warriors. However, most tribes would only use tricks to make a small number of bison fall into the cliff.

Once the Comanches find a suitable herd of cattle, they will definitely be killed. On the one hand, they let the warriors attract the herd to the edge of the cliff, and behind them are men from the entire tribe. They are wearing brown bears, cougars, and gray wolf's entire fur, pressing step by step, and insisting on driving the entire herd off the cliff before stopping.

During this period, there were obviously manic bulls turning around to fight back. Sometimes there were even more than a dozen or more violent North American bulls rushing towards the crowd together. Most people were already scared, and the most powerful hunter, the Gray Wolf tribe, would retreat, but the Comanches would never retreat.

In fact, they seemed to have found the lifeblood of the buffalo and also realized the true meaning of "the brave one wins when they meet on a narrow road". Although it may be damaged, the one who retreated in the end was still the buffalo.

However, although the Comanches are extremely powerful, they are an extremely stubborn tribe. They never intermarry with the tribes outside, and they are killed by the captives they catch. They also hate the white people who broke into their territory. If the generation difference in weapons was not too bad, they would even dare to attack their fortress.

Compared with them, the Apaches are softer, which is also the main reason why the Comanches are brave, although they are the best in North America, they are eventually driven away. The Apaches' nomadic range includes the entire southwestern United States!

For the Spaniards in Colorado, the one that caused the most headache was naturally the Comanches. They must have armed the Apaches. The number of Apaches was much more than that of the Comanches at the beginning, but now the number of the two sides is almost the same. You can imagine how powerful the Comanches are.

But at this time the Comanches were at the end of their strength.

The Apaches across Texas, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and California can fail many times, but the Comanches who only retain Oklahoma are all elite. Once they fail, their ethnic group is very likely to die!

The story of the Apache and Comanches is hidden on the south bank of the Arkansas River and Chu Feng, who is about five miles away from the battlefield, also heard Tampa tell him on the way.

Tampa is the Navajo people, and the Navajo people are the largest Indian tribe in North America nowadays. Their living scope not only covers Apache and Comanche places, but also covers Utah, Nevada, and even to Oregon.

Their number exceeded one million at this time, but their single-round combat power was far inferior to the Apache and Comanches. There was only one reason, that is, their level of civilization was higher, and they were nomadic, but they had begun to domesticate their cattle and sheep, and women began to farm.

Therefore, both the Apaches and the Comanches regarded them as objects of robbery.

Don't imagine them as a large tribe, but various nomadic tribes in ancient China. Hostility and fighting are the norm, unless a talented and strategic figure appears in one of their tribes, and for tribes that are generally in the Stone Age, such figures obviously will not appear.

The battle is extremely fierce, both of them are famous and fierce tribes in North America. The strategies may be different when facing the buffalo herds, but they are equal in front of the enemy. In the end, both sides threw away their weapons and rushed forward to fight together, which was very similar to the Chinese fighting when they were young.

But their group frame was obviously much more brutal and fatal. Their battle started at noon and was still going on at dusk, but at this time there were only a few dozen people left on both sides!

"What to do?"

Chu Feng, who was lying on the hill and observing the battle with his telescope, had a little numbness.

According to normal conditions, he should wait until the winner is decided before rushing out, and then defeat the winning side. At this time, whether he goes west to Colorado, New Mexico, or Oklahoma, he can gain a large population.

However, at this time, Colorado and New Mexico have been confirmed to be the territory of the Spaniards, while Oklahoma is the French. The Spaniards are competing for endlessly, and the Spanish are still the upper hand. It is not easy to bring the Indian population who lost men back to Texas.

Besides, he was only a cavalryman in his company. Although he had Antonio's papers, this thing was not very useful in Oklahoma, Colorado, and New Mexico.

After a while, he said to Katarina beside him: "It's time, do you dare to fight with me?"

Catalina smiled and said, "Why not dare? I am a famous fencing player and rider in Barcelona. If it weren't for this, their big and thick men would like to let me be their leader?"

"Okay, let's go to the battle right away!"

"Target?"

"Apache!"

"Ah?"

"Don't ask so much, go!"

The sun sets, and the setting sun scatters on the earth like blood. The Apaches and Comanches are exhausted, but neither side retreats. Although the movements are much slower than at the beginning, they obviously do not give up. They hold each other and fight desperately.

"Rumbling..."

At this time, Chu Feng appeared with the cavalry brigade.

They all wore Spanish uniforms, but they were pistols and sabers!

The cavalry surrounded the two sides of the battle, and then the Patan, who was also wearing military uniforms, shouted.
Chapter completed!
