392 Surprised

After a night's rest, the remaining 100 or so soldiers of Lu Yu and them could be regarded as coming back to their senses and regaining some combat strength.

After this battle, Lu Yu could also think that his independent leading troops this time was completely messed up, not only did he fail to achieve the plan formulated by Li Tianyang before, but even the newly recruited and trained team members were disabled again.

This Hongtang Whale Department has also experienced many major battles in recent years, and several casualties are in the thousands, and now this has just imitated the newly built Xishan Cemetery in Bengang, but it is really not deserted, there are brand-new stone tablets everywhere, and the ashes of the Hongtang team members lying in it have thousands of corpses.

Even now, if you hear that Hongtang is recruiting, the local blind date in Jilong Port will not go anyway, even if the welfare of Hongtang's team members is really good, but people just want to eat together, instead of letting their relatives die!

I thought that this time the east and west sides of the army, open up the land passage, is not a very difficult thing, Bengang side of the indigenous tribe probably know the strength of they are also clear, although the chicken coop port side is not clear, but think about the mountain area is far more difficult and difficult life than the plains, presumably the tribes on this mountain must only be rarer, smaller scale, how can there be any big tribes.

But it was this kind of self-righteousness, which naturally made Hongtang suffer a big loss again, and no one knew that in this Ali Mountain Range, where everyone thought that life was more difficult, there was a behemoth, an enemy that was even more powerful than all the opponents they Hongtang had ever encountered.

Lake. Barry scattered the reconnaissance team even further, because seeing that the Hongtang people were still not moving on this hill, there was no sign of wanting to retreat.

The other party sent out to scout the tribal cottage behind them. Barry didn't let the people move, he hoped that after the other party saw the huge scale of this cottage, he would retreat himself, so that they would not have to use force against each other again. Of course, he knew that even if the people of the chicken coop were withdrawn, sooner or later they would come back, and even more men and stronger weapons than they had brought this time.

But if the other party took the initiative to retreat, he could also persuade the patriarch to think twice, and their clan would have more time to prepare.

The cottage behind him is called Kede Cottage, because there is a Kede Lake on its side, as the closest cottage to Jilong Harbor, the defense facilities here are the strongest outside of Laike Cottage, and the people here are also the largest, there are more than 8,000 people, most of them are strong warriors.

Of course, here Lake. Barton and the others played a little trick on their minds, and they built a lot of houses in this cottage, because their captives came to the Chicken Coop Harbor and told them that the soldiers of the Chicken Coop Harbor scouted a tribe population, and many times looked at the number of houses in the cottage, and finally estimated the approximate number of the population of the cottage tribe.

Therefore, Lake. When Barton and her family were building this Kede cottage, they consciously built a lot of vacant houses, firstly, it can facilitate the cottage to accommodate more people in the future, and secondly, when their tribe Kede cottage was discovered by the people of Jilong Hong Kong, because of these extra houses, they misjudged their tribe, so that even if their tribe mobilized more people from other cottages, the people of Jilong Hong Kong would only think that this was in their cottage, and there were no doubt that there were other cottages.

Since the other party has sent someone to investigate, he must have made a certain judgment in his heart based on the number of houses and buildings, at least with their current manpower, it is really impossible to build this cottage.

However, the other party did not play the cards according to the rules, and a day passed, except for sending people to reconnoiter the Kede Cottage, the rest of the time they stayed on the hill where they were surrounded, focusing on cleaning the corpses on the battlefield, collecting the corpses belonging to the Hongtang warriors and cremating them, without worrying about the men and horses of the Laike tribe killing them back and then surrounding them.

It's because of this anomaly, the war-sensitive Lake. Barry immediately knew that the other party must have something else to rely on, so he sent more men to the vicinity of the road where the Chicken Coop Harbor people came.

After two days of hard work, the people of Jilong Hong Kong did not move on the mountain, but the people of the Laike tribe who fled in the cottage were also re-arrested by Laike. Barton was summoned. Although there was a defeat, but these days everyone has been in the defeat, although the morale is low, but Lake. Barton wasn't surprised.

A few miles away, the Hongtang team said that they would not leave, and they would not stay. Patton's heart was a little nervous again, now there are still 2,000 soldiers in the Kede Cottage, plus more than 3,000 available middle-aged women in the village, it is still possible to eat this 1,000-year-old Hongtang team.

But in the end he was beaten by Lake. Barry stopped him, of course, because he wasn't sure what was going on in his own mind.

"Barry, Barry's leader, in the jungle behind and behind, there are a large number of chicken coop Hong Kong people, and they can't be counted!" In the end, the answer for Leker Barry was revealed by the people he sent to the direction of the chicken coop to reconnoiter the movements, and when they turned pale and looked frightened, they ran back to Lake. Barry stammered when reporting to the visitor. Barry had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Speak slowly, speak clearly!" Although the hunch is not good, but Lake. Barry was still very calm and calmed the team.

"In the northeast direction, a distance of about three days, a large army of chicken coop people is moving in the direction where we are!" By: Lake. Barry's eyes were soothed, and he gradually calmed down the excited team leader, and took a few breaths before reporting the information they had detected in an orderly manner.

"How many of them are there?" Lake. Barry was saddened, but he still didn't forget to care about the most important issues.

"I can't count it, anyway, it should be much more than the number of people on this mountain!" The leader of the squad was embarrassed, all of them were illiterate, and most of them, except for a few members of the clan, could count within ten at most.

"Are they really only three days away from us?"

"Yes, according to your instructions, we went directly to their rear without delay on this way, and based on our two-day journey, it would take at least three days for the other party to get here, or even longer, because we saw that they were still cutting down trees while moving in the direction outside, and seemed to be preparing to open a way out!" The leader of the team looked very sure, and he danced to describe Hong Tang's movements and mannerisms as he advanced.
