Chapter 438 The sound of the gourd in the snow cave
After entering the Huiliang tribe, Ye Qiong had no intention of moving forward for the time being.
Ye Qiong looked ahead, then looked left and right, and found that the tribe was still quite quiet.
The Huiliang tribe itself is actually not large, it is probably the same as two football fields.
The ice wall surrounded outside is only about four meters high. In terms of scale alone, it is similar to the Yeqiong tribe's previous year. It is a small tribe that needs to be migrated all year round. Then, in winter, find a habitat to hide.
It is possible to build the ice wall higher and thicker.
Once discovered by the beast tide, the ice wall built will be the last barrier to protect the tribe.
For tribes, building foreign-funded ice walls is actually a relatively thorough thing. According to common sense, although building ice walls can play some defensive roles, they also increase their ability to build ice walls in the wilderness of Xuexing.
Possibility of exposure.
The higher the ice wall is built, the higher the probability of being discovered by the madman and the beast tide, which is inversely proportional.
So in winter, whether to build ice walls and how high are needed is a matter that needs to be planned in advance.
For example, some small tribes will choose not to build ice walls, and they will dig snow and winter as deep as possible.
If you drill more under the ground, it will disappear on the ground. The only thing you have to worry about is that when a blizzard comes, you must face the possibility of being buried alive.
If there is an ice wall for protection, in addition to defending against beast tides and mad people, there is another point that can block the blizzard and prevent the snow caves and some buildings in the tribe from being buried.
After the terrifying blizzard, it is not like burying the snow cave as heavy as dozens of centimeters. A larger blizzard will be like half a month or even a month. The accumulated thickness can reach five or six meters, or even
More than ten meters.
So whether to build an ice wall is a headache for small tribes every year.
For medium-sized tribes and some large tribes, it is different. Ice walls must be built. After all, they have strong military forces and are not afraid of ordinary beast tides and mad people. However, the losses caused by blizzards are
No tribe can bear it, so for larger tribes, building ice walls is a must-have option, and there is no room for choice.
Ye Qiong reached behind his back, touched the bone crystal longbow, and was thinking about whether he needed to make some movement next.
If a normal person enters the territory of a madman, he will definitely be nervous or even scared, but Ye Qiong is different now.
Very excited.
For a soldier who used to fight with enemies on the front-line battlefield for many years, this feeling is very good, and can stimulate the brain to secrete enough adrenal hormones and endophthalein.
Ye Qiong took off the bone crystal longbow and walked slowly into the inside with his body.
Now these madmen in the Huiliang Tribe probably never dreamed that in the tribe they had occupied, there would be humans who dared to run in alone.
In the Huiliang tribe, the main residence of the tribesmen in the past was still in a snow cave, but some ice rooms were also built on the ground.
The houses made of these ice cubes are very solid in winter and are not even pressed against stone buildings. After all, although the density of stone buildings is higher, the gap in the middle is relatively weak due to no cement bonding.
But the ice wall is different. After it is built, just pour some water on it and the entire building will be integrated immediately.
A building that has become a whole is very powerful in resisting snowstorms.
When you step on the snow, you will inevitably make some creaking sounds. Although Ye Qiong is very careful, this thing is an inevitable situation and can only be as slow as possible.
It is also difficult for a crazy man to notice that humans are approaching.
Ye Qiong also discussed with Ye Tianlong and the elders in front of him, and planned to take advantage of the darkness, Ye Qiong brought a team of fifty people, composed of the most powerful warriors in the tribe, and lurked directly into the madman crowd.
There will be a raid and assassination.
This kind of playing style is actually very good and can effectively solve madmen, but there is inevitably a problem.
That is the casualty rate. Even if the warriors in Qiongqi in Yeqiong tribe fight one-on-one with the madman, the probability of winning is only a 50-5 situation, so if the surprise attack, the casualty rate is probably not small
.
If you encounter a mutant madman, then Qiongqi's warriors have no chance of winning one-on-one, so there is no possibility of being directly killed by a mutant madman.
So after discussion, this kind of fighting style was strangled in the cradle. Although this kind of fighting style could solve the madman in the shortest time, the casualties rate of the warriors in the Yeqiong tribe was at least 100%
There are dozens of them.
This casualty rate is a number that Ye Qiong cannot accept now.
Therefore, after the Yeqiong tribe discussed, the way of fighting this madman group was still the same as last winter. They found ways to pull it out and entered the encirclement, and then used it to deter the giant crossbow and annihilate it in one fell swoop.
In this case, the casualty rate of tribal warriors is the lowest.
It just takes more time.
After all, mining, transporting giant crossbows and setting traps all require time and a lot of manpower and material resources.
Although the final decision was to fight an ambush rather than a raid and assassination, it does not mean that you cannot fight a raid and assassination on a small scale.
This thing is a special combat, and Ye Qiong is an expert, so he brought people here tonight.
Tonight, Ye Qiong actually has not many goals. If he can kill more than ten madmen, it will be enough.
Now the madman is not very cautious and has low vigilance. For example, last year, Ye Qiong assassinated many madmen the first night.
After walking forward for a while, Ye Qiong arrived at a snow cave, so he stopped, carried the longbow back behind him, and took out the bone crystal dagger on his waist.
“Huhuhuhuhu…lulu…”
Ye Qiong was next to the snow cave, and you could clearly hear the snoring of the madman sleeping inside. Almost all the madmen were all male. Before becoming a madman, the women, the elderly and children were basically eaten by them, and only some were out of the body.
Only strong women like Tang Li can survive and become madmen when tribes become madmen. This probability is not high on Xuexing, so the probability of seeing female madmen is pitifully low.
.
Scarcity is precious. According to legend, female madman is a treasure of the madman race. It is the existence of the Centennial Madman King, so many female madmans appear around them.
And madmen basically have the habit of snoring while sleeping.
Ye Qiong gently bounced the bone crystal dagger and arrived at the door of the snow cave.
