The elders say that although the frog god is in charge of the rain, he doesn't like it to rain all the time, so in Ouyue, June often encounters several consecutive sunny days.

But in the rainforest, where the trees are tall and old, there is not much difference between the clouds and the sun, and the tall and lush canopy blocks out the sun, leaving only a few strands to leak to the ground and fall into the babbling stream.

With a snap, the barefoot hunter stepped through the waves, darting through the wet ground, leaping into the bushes and climbing the moss-covered giant trees with his bare hands, like a nimble leopard.

More than ten zhang above the ground, Dagu found himself a hidden tree, and he knew that as long as he hid in the canopy, the Qin people would not be able to find him.

But every move of the Qin people, Dagu can see the fire!

Reach out and grab a lizard unfortunate enough to pass by, twist its head, tear open its weak scales, and the flesh with a strong fishy smell can be chewed and swallowed by the teeth, warming the hungry stomach, and this is a hunter's easy lunch.

Dagu carefully adjusted his bow and twisted the water on the duck feather arrow, which would affect the accuracy of the bow and arrow due to heavy rain for several days, but the advantage of the duck feather was that it did not get wet, and the disadvantage was that it could not shoot far.

Raising his head, Dagu looked into the distance, and after reciting ten times silently, he first heard the sound of Suosuo, the dense bushes were removed, and a group of Qin soldiers holding Gohe armor appeared in the field of vision.

Unlike Dagu, who regarded the forest as his home, the Qin soldiers walked awkwardly, they had to be armed with axes to split vines and shrubs, and a surprised snake, a passing lizard, would startle the Qin people with crossbows!

"What a waste of good arrows."

Dagu sneered disdainfully, and once again hid in the canopy, attacking now would only expose his position prematurely.

During the rare rest time before the war, Dagu's mind reappeared the scene from a few months ago - the scene of being dismembered by the Qin people!

His father, Yihu Song, the son of the frog god and the ruler of Ouyue, had died on the battlefield and went to the other end of the Rainbow Bridge under the guidance of the first ancestor Gong.

Adagu will never forget the Battle of Guilin three months ago, when the Ou people had abandoned Pingba and fled into the mountains and forests, and although they were excellent hunters, they could not satisfy the huge crowd by hunting and gathering alone.

Seeing that food was becoming scarce, many people wanted to go home to grow rice, and the destruction of the altars and tombs of the Ou people by the Qin generals caused public outrage. My father couldn't resist the voice of the clansmen asking for war, and led the crowd to attack Guilin, but he didn't want to, it was the trick of the Qin people, the backward weapons of the Ou people, and they couldn't conquer the strong camp, and the Qin army reinforcements came from all directions.

The Ou people were invincible, so they could only retreat, but after the Song Dynasty was broken, they were killed by the Qin people, and they didn't even have time to recapture the corpse.

In that battle, countless clansmen were slaughtered, and Yihu Song was also beheaded in a different place, insultingly beheaded by the Qin people, and hung in the camp to show the public, and some of the clansmen who tried to recapture Yihu Song's body sneaked over at night and were also shot with crossbows!

This is a trap, the Ou people no longer try, the atmosphere of failure spreads among them, some of the timid are old, and even leave the forest with their families to surrender to the Qin army and lead the way for them......

Fortunately, at this critical moment, Yihu Song's younger brother, Dagu's uncle "Jijun", was elected as the new ruler.

After consulting with the remaining warriors, he decided to stick to the original idea of the Song Dynasty, resolutely not to fight the Qin people head-on, but to fight in the vast forests, giving full play to the Yue people's strengths of climbing mountains and mountains and driving boats, and using the high mountains and dense forests to deal with the Qin people......

In the past three months, this method of warfare has been surprisingly effective, and the Ou people no longer died in vain, but the Qin people continued to bleed. Scattering the army everywhere should be the biggest mistake that the Qin generals made, but whenever the garrison needs food, the Ou people have already been fortified and cleared, even if someone surrenders to the past, and now they are farming, it will take a few months before the harvest is harvested.

If the local area could not be satisfied, it had to be transported from the rear, so the long road opened up along the river, the Qin army's food team with a long snake became a good target for ambushes.

In addition to raiding the grain road, the Ou people also often frequented the camps established by the Qin people after occupying their hometowns, and when it was dark at night, they sneaked over to give the patrol and stand guard an arrow, cut off people's heads, and then escaped into the night.

Relying on this method, Dagu alone cut off five heads of Qin people and sacrificed them to his father one by one......

After losing a lot of people, the Qin army began to counterattack, and under the leadership of those traitors, they organized thousands of people to enter the forest in groups, trying to find the stronghold of the Ou people and eliminate them.

But the Qin people didn't know that from the moment they stepped into the forest, they were on the road of no return to death......

In the Battle of Guilin, the Qin people, who wore armor and swords and marched in a phalanx, looked so powerful that there was no possibility of defeating them.

But once in the dense forest, the samurai became toddler babies, their shoes slippery on the slippery moss, the sunlight jungle made it difficult for them to find their bearings, the animals running around attracted their attention, their bodies were dragged down by the heavy armor, and the once neat queue became extremely scattered.

The Ou people wandered around this familiar hunting ground, silently staying on the periphery, making some noise from time to time, attracting the Qin people to run, and after two days of wrestling with it, the Qin army, which had found nothing, was like a tired prey......

Unlike when they were in Guilin, the prey and the hunter have changed their identities!

Seeing this Qin group sitting sideways by the stream to rest, Dagu took out his bamboo bow.

"Adagu, don't worry, good hunter, know how to wait for the right time......"

My father's words still seemed to be echoing in my ears.

Dagu slowly pulled the strings and took aim at the insatiable group of invaders.

"Tebo, I'm no longer Adagu, I'm no longer a child, after the blood sacrifice to the ancestral spirit, I always have facial tattoos on my face, just like the pattern on the frog god......"

In the black veins was a pair of eyes burning with vengeance.

"Now, my name is Dagu, a man, a headhunter!"

……

An hour later, the large force of the Qin army entered the mountains and arrived at the place where the front was ambushed.

When Zhao Tuo passed, there were soldiers standing next to the tree, and they all looked terrified.

"Let's go, let's go, Captain Zhao is here!"

Everyone hurriedly gave way, and this great hero of the Song Dynasty came forward, and it was said that he was also the brother of a certain feudal official.

Zhao Tuo saw a terrifying scene, but saw hundreds of corpses of Qin soldiers, stripped of their clothes and thrown by the stream, the stream was red, and there were scavenging animals swimming far away in the distance, salivating.

All the corpses lost their heads, just like the Ou people who were beheaded after the Battle of Guilin......

Zhao Tuo frowned and squatted down, turned a person over, and a huge centipede quickly crawled out, startling the pro-soldiers, and then found that everyone's hearts were gouged out.

"Ou people really eat human flesh......"

Qin Shu shuddered, but Zhao Tuo, who had been in contact with the Yue people for a long time, and even had a Yue people who worshiped his brothers, knew that like the head, the heart and liver were also good things used by the Ou people to sacrifice the ancestral spirits with blood.

Someone was indignant and asked for a suggestion to go deep into the forest to pursue, but Zhao Tuo refused and calmly ordered.

"Collect the corpse."

The scavenging beasts have been driven away, but on those corpses, there are still reddish-brown ants crawling with thick knuckles, compared to the Central Plains, the snakes and insects in Lingnan are almost all oversized.

These red ants are like small bees that have not yet grown wings, and on their round heads, a pair of bracket-like tentacles stretch horizontally in front of them, swinging flexibly. A pair of compound eyes flickered with a ghostly light, two pliers-like horizontal jaws, like curved mouth tweezers, were gnawing at Qin Shu's flesh, behind the thin waist, dragging an oval belly, rolling melons and round, slightly cocking the tip of the tail, with the gnawing action, squirming left and right, inside, it was all the fresh flesh and blood of the robes......

Someone couldn't help but vomit, the atmosphere was solemn, more fear than revenge, fear of this scene, of this land.

Zhao Tuo stood up and looked at the green hell around him, his eyes solemn.

Swamps, wetlands, ravines, jungles, etc. provide an ideal habitat for snakes and insects, constituting a net of heaven and earth, in addition to ants, the most annoying is the big locust, the most terrible is the poisonous mosquito, all bitten by it, will inevitably be infected with inflammation, in a few days of violent death.

There are also heavy rains, mountain floods accompaniment, epidemic miasma to help the fun, Ouyue people are ghostly, secretly cold arrows.

Here, Qin Jun is also like a strong man with strong martial arts, who is not afraid of fierce beasts, but he has no idea what to do with the small insects that crawl on his body and gnaw at him!

If according to Tu Sui's plan, go deep into the slaughter and eliminate Ouyue as soon as possible, I am afraid that before the Ou people are exterminated, the Qin people will already be filled with corpses!

It seems that this war is not something that can be easily ended by occupying a few dams and killing a few monarchs......

"Withdraw!"

Zhao Tuo made a quick decision and issued an order to withdraw the army, which made everyone's faces feel relieved.

He remembered what Heifu said many years ago, when two semi-literate people talked about the "art of war" after the strategy of Yuzhang.

"My brother, if you fight the barbarians in the south in the future, you must remember my words."

The words are meaningful, as if Heifu has seen Zhao Tuo's situation today through a long time.

"Don't enter the forest!"

……

Although the Qin army on the western route occupied a small number of flat dams, it continued to reduce its strength under the frequent guerrilla raids of the Ou people, and this way of fighting seemed to be innately possessed by these jungle peoples.

Hundreds of miles away, in Longchuan Village, South Vietnam, the Middle Route Army from Yuzhang also faced the same trouble. What makes the soldiers even more chilled is that the South Vietnamese here are not only keen on headhunting, but also really eat human flesh, they wasted their strength, went deep into an empty village destroyed in the forest, and on the bonfire where the residual warmth remained, there were several human hands, one of which was gnawed to the bone......

"General Ben has had enough of those woods!"

After learning that he had lost two hundred in the attack and only killed dozens of Yue people, General Jia in the middle roared.

Compared to the Yue people, the jungle itself is a formidable and formidable enemy, the vast turbulence has set up a series of insurmountable natural barriers, the continuous mountains, full of clumps of shrubs, vines and roots are intertwined, towering trees go straight into the sky, weaving into a dark and gloomy environment, high temperature and summer, continuous monsoon rain.

Without the protection of this huge jungle, with the strength of the Qin army, it would be easy to eliminate the recalcitrant Yue people!

After thinking about it, General Jia came up with a good idea that he thought was extremely clever:

"Set fire, notify all the armies, set fire to all directions, this general will burn this thousands of miles of dense forest in Lingnan, along with the Yue people, snakes, insects, rats and ants inside!"
