After Zhou Sen understood the general process, he immediately came to a conclusion.
However, the lack of preparation cannot be blamed for Ran Xiaomin's reckless behavior, because he was the one who asked Ran Xiaomin to start an uprising as soon as possible. Zhou Sen believed that if he gave Ran Xiaomin more time, things would not be so bad.
Of course, it's not that bad now, at least, the sheep people have occupied a lot of territory.
For the Sheep people, even if they occupy a small piece of territory, they can quickly obtain weapons and supplies on this territory, and they can expand outward through the territory.'
The biggest advantage of controlling territory is that it can unite the sheep people.
During the chat, Zhou Sen also got to know this middle-aged man to a certain extent. The middle-aged man's surname was Chen Ming Boyan. He and Ran Xiaomin's father were brothers, and they were one of the main forces in the riot. And because he was the main force
, so he suffered a crazy counterattack from the headhunters.
At first, Chen Boyan almost occupied a city, but the sudden appearance of a nearby headhunting cavalry broke his plan. The cavalry repeatedly attacked the Sheep Clan armed men in the city. The Sheep Clan people could not resist at all, and Chen Boyan's armed forces were scattered.
, and he also escaped.
Before Chen Boyan could escape far, the headhunting cavalry caught up with him...
…
"How long did it take for you to escape from the city before the cavalry caught up with you?" Zhou Sen asked with a frown.
"About an hour or so."
"That is to say, you were caught up by the cavalry an hour after you fled the city?" Zhou Sen confirmed again.
"Yes."
"Are any of you captured?"
"There should be..."
"This place is exposed." Zhou Sen said.
"Why?" The expression on Chen Boyan's face suddenly became tense.
"It's night now, and the headhunter cavalry didn't bring tracking dogs or other animals, but they still caught up with you accurately. The only explanation is that someone confessed this secret base."
"Ah..." Chen Boyan stood up suddenly.
"It doesn't matter. Since this place has been exposed, let this place become a graveyard for headhunters." Zhou Sen said with a smile.
Chen Boyan and a group of sheep tribesmen looked at each other, and everyone immediately felt relieved.
Everyone has an almost blind trust in Zhou Sen. After all, he is a key figure in the revival of the Xia clan, and they saw with their own eyes the body of a headhunter cavalry.
Although everyone did not see with their own eyes how Zhou Sen killed the eleven cavalry, the result was that the eleven brave headhunter cavalry died without the power to fight back. In fact, this kind of process was witnessed without seeing it with one's own eyes.
The result is more likely to shock people, a kind of shock full of mystery.
"How many people are there in a team of headhunter cavalry?"
"That's eleven people."
"How much more?"
"Twenty-two people."
"How much more?"
"Thirty-three people."
"In other words, they are a team of eleven people. If they increase their manpower, they will add one more team."
"Yes, but a small group of cavalry can only have between thirty-three and thirty-five people at most. It rarely exceeds forty people. If it exceeds forty people, for the headhunters, it is a large-scale battle.
, will be equipped with infantry and supply units, etc."
"In other words, there are not many cavalry?" Zhou Sen asked.
"There are many cavalry. In fact, every headhunter clan member is good at riding and shooting, but they don't have many horses." Chen Boyan said.
"They all have pastures, why aren't there many war horses?" Zhou Sen looked confused.
"War horses have no economic value and require a lot of food and grass. However, the headhunters simply look down on us sheep tribe members. They think there is no need to raise too many war horses, so they only maintain a certain number of war horses."
"Can't we use another horse instead?"
"It can, but it is difficult for an untrained herding horse to develop combat effectiveness in a short period of time."
"The sheep people are in danger." The expression on Zhou Sen's face became serious. He found that he had made things simple before. If this continues, the two sides will form a tug-of-war. However, this continuous tug-of-war will be more serious for the headhunters.
This is advantageous because they are good at riding and archery, while the Sheep tribesmen who do not have any military training will most likely not be able to ride horses and archery. Even if there are people who can ride horses, there will not be too many, making it difficult to form a combat effectiveness.
In the cold weapon age, cavalry had an overwhelming advantage.
Cold weapon era!
Since cold weapons have no advantage, then use hot weapons!
A sinister smile appeared at the corner of Zhou Sen's mouth.
No one spoke, even Chen Boyan could only look at Zhou Sen helplessly, because they could only place all their hopes on Zhou Sen.
"Your current situation is very bad, because once the headhunters slow down, they will form a large-scale cavalry regiment to fight. Under this situation, their mobility can completely crush you with overwhelming force.
And you won't be able to build a strong city in a short period of time, so it will be more and more difficult for you in the days to come... But, it doesn't matter." Zhou Sen changed the subject.
"Sir, please make it clear!" Chen Boyan quickly knelt down. As soon as he knelt down, the surrounding sheep tribe members knelt down one after another.
"I will first teach you how to make two simple weapons, such as explosives and landmines. These two weapons are easy to make and can completely contain the offensive of the headhunters' cavalry. After containing the offensive of the headhunters, I will teach you
You make firearms."
"We know about explosives and landmines, but some of our books were burned by headhunters, and many technical formulas have been lost." Chen Boyan gritted his teeth bitterly.
"Well, explosives and mines require some supplies and materials, which cannot be made at the moment. Let's get through the first level first. I estimate that a cavalry of twenty-two people will come over in the morning. After the seventeen of you escaped, there will be another
Eleven war horses are chasing after them. A road has been trodden along the way. They will definitely follow this road. There are still about three hours until dawn in the morning, plus they will have half an hour to travel. In other words,
You have nearly four hours to make preparations. Do you understand?" Zhou Sen stared at Chen Boyan and asked.
"I...what should we do?" Chen Boyan asked stammering.
"Chen Boyan, you must find a way to kill more than twenty cavalry within four hours. If you can do this, I will personally appoint you as the founding general of the Xia tribe! And you, after the founding of the Xia tribe,
You are at least the rank of major general. Oh, by the way, as long as you complete the mission, I will immediately reward you with a gold brick as military expenses. Of course, I have an additional condition, you must not suffer casualties!" Zhou Sen opened his backpack, took out the gold brick and put it on the
On the ground, word for word.
Admiral!
Major General!
Gold bricks!
A group of sheep people held their breath and stared at the gold brick on the ground. Under the light of the bonfire, the gold brick shone with a fascinating metallic luster...
