171 Go to war

This night, Li Tianyang and them didn't sleep soundly, and when several people got up, their eyes were full of fine bloodshots. There is the enemy of the Yushan tribe on their side, if these battlefield junior brothers can fall asleep with a big smile, then there will be ghosts, of course, Li Tianyang also believes that the people of the Yushan tribe opposite them, I'm afraid there are few people who can sleep!

Therefore, as soon as the sky dawned, the men and horses on both sides of the camp had already beaten gongs and drums.

"Order, after all the soldiers have eaten breakfast, they will stand according to the assigned team, and they will not leave their posts without my orders!!" Li Tianyang, who had finished washing, looked quite calm, but in fact, his heart was not at peace at all.

With these two days of marching, although it is impossible to teach these natives to understand things like queues, at least they are familiar with the dozen or so soldiers around them, and there will be no such embarrassing thing as going to the wrong team.

At the beginning of the day, the large army had already eaten breakfast, and under the leadership of the temporarily promoted young team members, one by one lined up towards the Yushan tribe. At the same time, there were many young members of the ranks who were making final preparations for the coming big battle: many unlit torches were neatly erected in front of each team, and special wooden arrows were distributed to each of the natives at this time.

And in the temporary camp, a tightly enclosed tent that had been set up early also unveiled at this moment.

Since the encampment yesterday, people have been moving into this tent with felled timbers, large and small, and there are all kinds of knocking and banging sounds, which do not stop until late at night. Such an abnormal situation, if it did not arouse the strong curiosity of these natives, it must be fake, but looking at the appearance of the guards around the tent, they still have some eyesight, and they dare not sneak in to observe a thing or two.

Now watching the tents gradually being dismantled by the people of Bengang, many natives can't help but look back.

In front of them, they were greeted by two improvised trebuchets made entirely of local materials. If you look at it according to military standards, Li Tianyang's trebuchets are really a miniature version, and the longest throwing rod is only less than two feet, and the arms on both sides are also rough, and you can tell how far you can't throw them at a glance.

But this is enough for Li Tianyang and them to use in this battle, they are only dealing with an indigenous tribe, and Li Tianyang and them can't carry all the weapons over! Therefore, this time, Li Tianyang and the others decided to use the simple and easy weapon of trebuchet, and at the same time, the animal fat brought from the camp was used as ignition.

At this point, everyone probably also understands that Li Tianyang is preparing to reapply the plan, most of the tribes in the deep forest are made of local materials, and tribes like Yushan and Zhuluo Mountain are basically wood-based. In order to reduce the loss of the team, Li Tianyang had to use another fire attack strategy, which was also the reason why he was full of emotion last night.

"Ignition!!" As the team slowly moved forward, gradually approaching the wall of the Yushan tribe, Li Tianyang gave an order, and the torches in each team burst into flames.

"Trebuchet ready!!" Zhang Yuyan led the two teams to complete the final debugging task of the trebuchet.

Jars weighing more than twenty pounds were put into the trebuchet, aiming at the Yushan tribe not far away.

"Put !!" The two mud altars rose to the sky, flying straight towards the center of the Yushan Village, and finally, although they were covered by the wall, Li Tianyang and they didn't completely see the location of the altar falling, but by feeling, they still knew that they had shot into the range of the village.

After a while, another order was given, and two more jars flew towards the Yushan tribe, and if so, they shot five times, using a total of ten jars of grease, before Li Tianyang stopped continuing to launch the jars.

"Archer, prepare!!" The native warriors, who had been waiting impatiently, set their bows on fire, set fire to their special wooden arrows, and then raised them diagonally to the sky and waited for the captain's order.

"Put!!"

For a while, the sky was full of arrow rain with a cloud of black smoke and quickly flew towards the cottage of the Yushan tribe.

"Patriarch, what are they going to do!!"

At the beginning, all the clansmen of the Yushan tribe who could pick up arms stood by the wall, staring nervously at the group of black warriors opposite, not understanding what was going on with this mud altar that fell from the sky and became scattered when it fell to the ground.

"Whatever they're going to do, you're all going to keep an eye on me!!" Harrick himself couldn't figure out what Li Tianyang was going to do, so he could only respond to the inquiries of the clansmen in this way.

When he saw the rain of flaming arrows falling from the sky, Harrik tried to react again, but it was a little too late.

Although Li Tianyang and they don't know where these ten jars of fire oil have fallen, it doesn't matter, Li Tianyang and they can use the tactics of the sea of people, so many arrows rain down, there are always a few lucky bows and arrows shooting on them!!

"Quickly call out all the clansmen who are hiding in the house, and then find someone to carry the clan's food to the open space." Harrick was already full of courage, and greeted everyone with a frosty face.

"Fight the fire, come and put out the fire!!" There was no need for Harrick to ask people to greet him, and many of the clansmen's homes would have already exploded.

Originally, many of our roofs were built with bark, thatch, etc., and when they were burned by this open flame, even without the catalyst of fire oil, the speed of their burning and spreading was not necessarily slow.

"What a ruthless heart, such a vicious tribe!!" It was only at this time that Harrick's heart really began to regret it.

Although the casualties in the war between the native tribes were also large, they also cared about the population of the other tribe, and after the victory, they were able to annex these other tribes who had been Fu into their own tribes: strong men went to do coolie work; Young and beautiful women were given to the soldiers who fought and had meritorious soldiers, and they bore children for them.

But that tribe has never been at war, it will be like today, Li Tianyang burned down this fire, maybe he could burn most of the people in Yushan alive in this village.

In the blink of an eye, the fire spread in various parts of the Yushan tribe, and even if Harik wanted to put out the fire now, there was nothing he could do, so he could only take the warriors and retreat the rescued clansmen in the direction of the back door.
