Chapter 49 Battle of the Yan Tribe, Yan Yan's Counterattack
"Su Xun, is the investigation clear?" Su Yu asked when he saw Su Xun coming back.
"Their situation is roughly clear. The population of their tribe is now only 1,500 people, and they are divided into ten branches."
"I have been observing for several days and found that the leader of their tribe, Yan, always stays in the temple, and the same goes for the wizard." Su Xun continued.
"They are not united. If we send troops to attack, we can choose to defeat them individually, or we can try to go straight to Huanglong and attack the temple." Su Xun suggested.
"The tribe's military strength is now limited. Although the noble spirits are not much expensive, there is no need to defeat them one by one, as that will only make them react."
Now each of the tribe's soldiers is fully armed, wearing plate armor, holding iron knives and shields made of iron sheets and wooden boards in their hands.
Standing neatly in a row, they looked quite impressive.
"We will take action on the day of their sacrifice. Capture the thieves first and capture the king. Don't worry about the others. Just capture or kill their clan leaders and wizards.
You must also keep an eye on that person to prevent him from changing his mind. Our only request is to merge them into our tribe. Anyone who objects will be killed." Su Yu ordered.
"Okay, patriarch."
…
Soon, the Yan tribe’s sacrificial day will come.
Su Yu did not follow the tribe's soldiers, but sent Su Yun to lead the army.
When the sky was still dark, Su Yun set off with the soldiers from the tribe. In order to prevent accidents, the reservists who had not been trained for a long time were also sent.
This time their mission was not to confront the entire Yan tribe, but to take the heads of their clan leaders and wizards.
Su Yun has already discussed it with Yan Yan. Yan Yan's mission is to create chaos and hold back people from other branches.
There are not many of Yan's confidants, only about eighty people. With the absolute advantage of weapons, it is not difficult for Su Yun to deal with them.
About half an hour later, Su Yun led his team to the location of the Yan tribe and settled the horses. Su Yun asked the cavalry to wait here temporarily, and then ordered, "You wait here, you can see the temple here, wait until the temple is there."
If there are signs of chaos around here, just rush over."
"Yes." The leading soldier responded.
Su Yun then led four squads of soldiers to the temple to meet Yanyan.
…
temple.
There are many people here, most of them are sacrifices. Only some people from each branch are here to guard, and there are also Yan's confidants and his guards.
Yan does not allow other unrelated members of the tribe to appear here. Only those escorting the sacrifices and the leaders of each branch can watch here.
These people who appear here are not allowed to reveal the information here to others, otherwise they will be sacrificed.
In fact, after so many years, people in these branches have noticed something strange, but they just don't dare to make random guesses.
Yan Yan stood at the location of their branch. They brought people from their branch and asked them to pretend to be sacrifices.
Su Yun originally wanted to blend in with the sacrifices, but found that the plate armor on people like him was too obvious and could not be covered. Wrapping them in animal skins would be bulky and look strange, which would not be conducive to their performance.
The most important thing is that his spear and other people's swords are very long, so it is impossible to hide them.
So Su Yun gave up this idea and instead asked Yan Yan and others to create chaos first, and Su Yun took advantage of the chaos to attack Huanglong.
Yan Yan has seen many sacrifices, and he can't remember how many sacrifices were offered to the so-called gods.
This temple swallowed up the lives of countless sacrifices. Yan Yan looked at it and felt a bit cold.
In the past, some of his friends and companions were devoured by this man-eating temple. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but clench his hands tightly. Success or failure depended on this, and even if he failed, he had to escape from here.
Su Yun looked at all this from a distance, and he did not expect that the number of sacrifices was so large.
There were hundreds of these sacrifices alone. They were all tied up, and they didn't know how many tribesmen were captured.
These people will be sacrificed, which means they will all die.
Su Yun couldn't help but sigh that there were still such crazy people. I'm afraid the dead people Su Yun had seen were not as many as they killed.
These executioners stood on the platform at the top of the temple. There was a groove here, and under the groove was a dark and deep hole.
The hole swallowed the blood of the sacrifices and their bones were thrown into it.
"Bring sacrifices." Yan shouted loudly on the platform.
The wizard stood next to him, looking at the sacrifices below, his eyes flashing with a faint red light.
Yan Yan and his men moved with other teams, and when they approached the levels of the temple, he shouted "Do it!".
Then he took out a stone dagger from his arms and slashed it hard on the head of the guard at the foot of the stairs.
These guards are all Yan's confidants.
When the leaders of other branches saw Yan Yan's outbreak, they were not surprised or stopped. They were waiting. If Yan Yan persisted, they would also take action together. If Yan Yan was suppressed, they would not be polite.
Yan was not surprised at all. He had already expected that Yan Yan would rebel. He knew it when Yan Yan didn't bring back any sacrifices.
He is not afraid of Yan Yan's resistance. The elites of the tribe are all his subordinates, and Yan Yan alone is not enough to deal with them.
Although Yan Yan gained a slight advantage through sneak attacks, this advantage soon disappeared. Their weapons were far inferior to those of the elites of these tribes.
The branches of the tribe don't have any good weapons. Good weapons can only be owned by Yan's subordinates. This is why they can't resist even if they want to. They don't trust each other and the weapons are not good.
Yan Yan was forced back with stone spears by the guards who reacted, and felt a little anxious.
The guard didn't care whether he was anxious or not. The blow just now left him with a bloody head, and now he was still a little swollen. He was so angry that he wanted to kill the person who sneaked up on him.
Facing the guards holding stone spears, Yan Yan knew that he had no advantage at all. Only by getting close did he have a chance.
He kept avoiding the assassination attempts of his guards and dealing with him.
At this time, other people were also entangled with the guards under the stairs.
The guards on the platform did not come down. Their first priority was to protect Yan's safety.
After the guards stabbed him more than a dozen times, Yan Yan found an opportunity and immediately got close behind the guards. Then he took out a sharp dagger from his arms and thrust it into the guard's neck.
The dagger penetrated the guard's neck easily, and then Yan Yan reached out to hook the guard's neck, pulled out the dagger, and stabbed him in the chest again.
The pierced neck was spraying with blood, and the guard lost his breath of life after a while.
The sudden change stunned the leaders of other branches behind.
Yan above did not expect that Yan Yan would kill his men so quickly. More importantly, the weapon in his hand was extremely sharp. Yan could see clearly that he had been paying attention to Yan Yan. Originally,
I also wanted to see how Yan Yan was killed by his men, but I didn't expect the reverse to happen so quickly.
The wizard also saw the weapon in Yan Yan's hand and fell into deep thought.
