Outside the Jilong Harbor camp, Wu Jie was proudly leading a team of special combat personnel to escort the first batch of hundreds of captives back to Bengang. Behind him, there were also Lu Qi and they escorted the remaining prisoners, who were not lightly injured, and walked slowly.

This time the battle finally made Wu Jie and his special combat team ashamed in front of Li Tianyang, and they were no longer the inactive people in Li Tianyang's mouth. He believes that with the deterrent power of this extermination, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the natives of Shengbo to dare to provoke Jilong Harbor.

In this way, Li Tianyang and their wasteland reclamation troops should also be able to restart work and continue the progress they had left behind.

It's just that what makes Wu Jie a little regretful, and even heartache, is that the price of their extermination of the tribe this time is not small.

Although the night attack made Wu Jie and them have a lot less trouble in the early and late stages, in the dark light, the special combat team members were not injured by cold arrows that could not be detected from the shadows, and even died.

After a battle, according to the last statistics, of the nearly 400 soldiers who participated in the battle, more than 70 soldiers were killed on the spot, and no less than 100 were injured and fell to the ground.

And these cold arrows, if they are placed in the daytime, with the skilled combat skills of the special combat personnel, it can be said that it is easy to dodge them. However, if the war starts during the day, with the quality of these natives and fierce arrows, just to take the door of the natives' cottages, Wu Jie and their price may not be smaller than now.

Of course, dwelling on these things is useless for what has already happened, but Wu Jie is now thinking involuntarily in his heart, how to act, so that his sons and daughters can have fewer losses and more results. Perhaps, these changes are exactly what Li Tianyang wants to see, and they are also what Wu Jie needs to change after sitting in this position now.

"Hey, hey, God, this time we put down a big fish, I believe that in the future, there should be no more eyeless earth rats who will come to us for trouble. Now you can go and reorganize the manpower to clear the wasteland, and our special operations team will not be idle in the future, and will continue to patrol the nearby forests to protect you. Wu Jie, who was raising his eyebrows, was finally able to straighten his waist and speak in front of Li Tianyang.

"Hmph, I don't care if it's a big fish or a big fish, since you said so, then I will organize people to open up the wasteland, and if I encounter harassment and attack because of the natives, you are the only one who asks!" Li Tianyang deliberately kept a straight face, but in fact, he was extremely satisfied with Wu Jie's actions this time.

Being able to wipe out a group of five or six hundred Shengbo natives with less than 400 soldiers shows that Wu Jie's action not only proves their ability, but also shows that their strategies and tactics are also good.

"Don't worry, I'll fight this!" As soon as he made some contributions, Wu Jie's ostentatious character was exposed, but this time he took care of everything, but not for himself: "It's just that this time our special combat team has sacrificed a lot and suffered great casualties, do you think we can send the soldiers' pensions as soon as possible in accordance with the pension regulations of our special operations battalion?" ”

"Well, this is the right thing to do, you report the casualties first, and after I let people check it out, I will send everyone's bereavement benefits!" Although Li Tianyang didn't see it in person, he could probably guess that the special combat team's losses in this battle must be not small, so he tried his best to meet Wu Jie's requirements.

"Great, then thank you on behalf of my brothers." Wu Jie was overjoyed, he didn't even wash up first, for the sake of this is not the case. Now that he has to taste his wishes, of course, this trip is not in vain, but there is still a small request, and he also wants to take advantage of Li Tianyang's good mood to explore the tone first: "It's just that now our special combat team is fighting one after another, and you know the losses and deaths, I think, can we recruit a new batch of people to fill the shortfall?" ”

Li Tianyang glared and roared angrily: "Who said it at the beginning, it is difficult to bring too many people, and it is troublesome." It's good now, turn around and ask me to add people, but you can tell me, with our current territorial power, where do we don't need manpower, let me go to help you find some good hands back? ”

"I think Wu Shu has a lot of people on their side, so it shouldn't be a problem to pick three or five hundred soldiers." Wu Jie replied weakly.

"Roll !!"

Here, Li Tianyang and Wu Jie are optimistic about the dialogue, and in the original cottage of the indigenous people in the valley that Wu Jie and they have just cleared, with the evacuation of Wu Jie and Lu Jie in batches, the cottage that was once lively and lively with chickens and dogs singing is empty at this time.

Before leaving, Wu Jie and the others were very humane and attentive, and buried the natives who died in the war in the flat land not far from the cottage.

At this time, except for the occasional beast that appeared out of nowhere, only flocks of birds on the treetops were left singing.

Suddenly, something began to squirm in the open land behind the large house in the center of the cottage, on the loose and mottled earth.

After a long time, at last "snapped", a small dirt bag formed on the wriggling earth, and finally broke through the soil was a solid plank, and a gray-faced face under the plank.

It turned out that under this land, there was such a hidden pit. As the pit opened, four or five teenagers slowly crawled out of the pit, and judging from their faces, the youngest was estimated to be only twelve or thirteen years old, and the eldest was only eighteen or nineteen years old.

As soon as they crawled out of the pit, the first thing they did was to shout in the local language in this empty and familiar cottage: "Abba, grandma!" ”

It is a pity that their cries have not been answered in any way, even if they are in tears, even if they are full of enthusiasm.

H until the eldest teenager, after searching the cottage to no avail, out of curiosity, dug up a small dirt bag outside the cottage that was obviously left by those intruders.

The last thing that caught the eyes of the five teenagers was a cold, familiar figure, their entangled, twisted and deformed bodies that had begun to rot and stink because of the weather.

The boys stood there stunned, as if frightened, but then the eldest suddenly went mad, jumped into the pile of dead people, and dug up the corpses. The remaining teenagers, seeing the movements of the eldest teenager, also came back to their senses at this time, and joined in one after another, full of sadness and expectation, carefully observing each of the exhumed corpses.

The whole exhumation of the corpse lasted for two days, and the five teenagers exhumed the whole body in the dirt bag, but the result they expected did not appear, and when the owner with the familiar and friendly face was excavated by them from the dark dirt pit, except for the young teenager who did not quite understand what this meant, the other teenagers had already put on mixed expressions of sadness, anger, etc.

After learning the last unfortunate whereabouts of their relatives in the family, the five of them once again buried the hundreds of corpses that had been sorted out into this empty land with rudimentary wooden sticks and other tools. It's just that compared to Wu Jie's casualness, the five teenagers are much more solemn, although the tools are simple, although they are few and weak, but they still dig hundreds of soil pits one by one, and bury the corpses of these clansmen one by one.

It's just that there are five corpses among them, but they are all together, which are their relatives, grandfather, abba, grandma, uncle and brother.

When the family returned to the earth, the eldest boy led the four teenagers to kneel solemnly and solemnly at the grave where their relatives were buried, and said to them: "Remember who our enemies are, they are the outsiders in the east, and in our lifetime, we must avenge our grandfather and Abba!" ”

Even the young boy who didn't know what revenge was, replied solemnly at this time: "Remember, we will definitely avenge Abba and Grandma!" ”

By this time, it was the seventh day that they had climbed out of the pit. For seven days, they starved, buried the bodies of their people, and laid sacrifices for their souls, and when the youngest knew it was time for them to leave.

Whether it was for their unrealistic wishes, or for the sake of the four brothers around them, they had to leave here and take refuge in other tribes in order for him and the four younger brothers behind him to live.

"Brother, where are we going?" The youngest brother asked, carrying one of the few supplies he had collected from the cottage, with a blank expression.

"We're going to a very strong tribe far away, from which our grandfather separated from a group of people many years ago. There are two more of our uncles and grandfathers, and we are going to take refuge in them and ask them to avenge us! The eldest boy touched his brother's head, looked at the distant mountains, and said with anticipation and hatred.

"Oh!"

Of course, traveling is not a very simple matter, and now the young people have no food in their hands, except for a few bows, arrows and spears that they use every day. Before Wu Jie and the others left, for the sake of the prisoners, they had scavenged all the things that could be eaten in the cottage, and now all the teenagers have eaten in the past few days are the ones who went out to hunt prey and pick mountain fruits by themselves.

A few days later, the well-prepared teenagers reluctantly looked at the familiar and ghostly empty cottage behind them, and took a solid step in the long sigh of the leading boy.

"Go, my relatives, and the next time we return, it will be the time for us to avenge your blood and hatred. It's me Lake. Patton, with the oath of a Alpine warrior!! ”

The eldest boy took one last look at the cottage that was gradually hidden by the forest, and made a solemn oath in his heart.

Along the way, the wind and sun were blowing, and the rain was drenched, but it did not stop the resolute footsteps of the five teenagers on the ground. Again and again in the face of the fierce beasts in the forest, when their lives were in danger, they never wavered, still supported each other, relied on each other, relying on courage, perseverance and luck, climbing mountains and wading towards the huge mountains to the west.

Fortunately, the indigenous teenagers have been cultivated by the clan since they were young and trained as warriors, even if they are eleven or twelve-year-old, in this primeval forest, they are still in shape and flexible. Coupled with the help of several brothers around him, more than half a month of rushing in the jungle also made him persevere.

It's just that after all, they are all young people, and their energy and physical strength are comparable to adults, even if they had a good family background at the beginning, which made their physique better than that of ordinary teenagers, they couldn't stand so many days of long travel.

Seeing that the younger brothers around him are getting thinner and thinner, as an elder brother, Lake. Barton's heart was filled with anxiety. Although he had heard about the origin of their tribe from his grandfather's previous stories, to be honest, he did not know anything about the tribe they were going to take refuge into, except for the name of one Raike tribe.

In this vast forest, trying to find the powerful tribe in Grandpa's mouth is almost like looking for a needle in a haystack, but what can they do other than take refuge in this tribe?

Not to mention that the oath he made in his heart needed to rely on a powerful tribe to fulfill, even in order to survive, if the brothers found a random tribe to take refuge, I am afraid that the result waiting for them may not be easier than fighting and dying against foreigners at that time.

How their own tribe treats the people of other tribes, they are very clear as the heirs of the patriarch of the clan.

"Rest!" Several younger brothers are already weak and just struggling to support themselves, so as an elder brother, he can't help but let them rest.

"Mu Lifan, you take your younger brothers to prepare for life, and I'll go hunt a few prey and come back." Instructed his younger brother, who was slightly younger than him, to take care of the younger brothers, and as the eldest brother, he braced his body and slipped into the jungle to help everyone prepare today's dinner and tomorrow's breakfast.

The food prepared at the cottage was consumed by them a few days ago, and they have been walking on the road for the past few days, looking for melons, fruits, and animals around them. It's just that today is very unlucky, the surrounding jungle seems to have been swept by someone, and there is not even a single ripe melon and fruit, let alone a prey that can be entered.

Lake. Barton walked swiftly through the jungle, watching everything around him, although he was the grandson of the patriarch, but since he was fifteen years old, he had followed the elders of the clan to hunt, so he was no stranger to the jungle. It is precisely because of this that he was able to take his four younger brothers, who were younger than him, to walk through the jungle safely in the past half a month, and there has been no mistake so far.
