The people of the Blackwater Tribe were extremely excited after being given the sling. This was something they had been coveting for a long time. Ever since Song Xuan pointed it out, they knew that this thing was indeed what their leader said, capable of injuring the enemy at a long distance. .
It was a pity that Song Xuan only left a handful for them at that time, and not many Tao Pills, so they could only satisfy their greed. This situation was not relieved until Song Xuan sent a batch, but the number was more than sixty. It is not enough in front of the human Blackwater Tribe.
Even counting the elders and the younger ones, only one out of ten people can get one on average, so no one is willing to go hunting with pottery balls, and they still use their own stones.
Fortunately, the pebbles are still round, and with Soaring Snake's sling, the accuracy has improved a bit, but the problem is still the same, the quantity is too small, and everyone wants to use it.
Now it's better, everyone can get a share. Although the tribe's inventory is not much, at least it is enough for the people in the hunting team.
As for the rest, they are also being made urgently. Compared with other weapons, slings are not difficult to make. Shihua can make several of them in a day. The pottery pills, which are very precious in Blackwater, are placed in the Soaring snakes can be seen everywhere here.
Song Xuan didn't count the number of Tao Pills in the warehouse. It might be an exaggeration to say tens of thousands, but there would still be no problem with three or four thousand. If Song Xuan hadn't stopped Shitou from trying to get it after seeing too many piled in the warehouse. The idea of continuing to burn, this number may be even more terrifying. Now I am burning several hundred pieces every once in a while, which is a supplement to daily use.
It is still necessary to maintain a good quantity, at least to be able to use it in emergency situations. Just like Shuiyun and the others joined this time, if Teng She had not had enough inventory, there might not be enough weapons to replace them.
After being assigned the sling, Shi Meng saw that they all knew how to use it, so he only let them practice for two rounds before he stopped and explained to them the current hunting method of Soaring Snake. At the same time, Shi Yu and the others showed off the charm of bows and arrows.
Bows and arrows are a weapon that has endured in the cold weapon era since its emergence. It is difficult to describe the shock it brings to people who see it for the first time.
Only twenty people were seen setting their bows and arrows at the same time. The target, which was only thirty meters away, was still very easy for the archery team, so no one missed the target. The only few arrows that fell were hit by other people's arrows. squeezed down.
Seeing Shui Yun and the others' jaws dropped, Song Xuan and Shi Meng were very satisfied with the result. Bows and arrows were the Teng Snake Tribe's biggest weapons at the moment. They had long range, fast speed, high damage, and were very accurate.
Although thirty meters is not a particularly far distance on Teng She's side, for Shui Yun and the others, almost no one can guarantee that they will hit the target every time, whether they use javelins or slings, let alone twenty people like this at the same time. Hit the enemy.
Putting it into imagination, if this was an enemy, he might have turned into a hedgehog. Apart from the shock, everyone in Black Water also shuddered. Even Shuiyun did not expect that in just a few months, Teng Snake's combat power would be so terrifying. .
A few months ago, Teng She was able to successfully kill half of the enemies with very small casualties when their number was only half that of the invading enemies from the Black Feather Tribe, and the rest were captured. In Shui Yun's opinion, , this is already a very unbelievable operation, but if it were replaced by the current Soaring Snake, it might be possible to do it without any effort.
But soon, Shuiyun also recognized the bows and arrows in the hands of Shi Yu and others, pointed at the bows and arrows and said to Song Xuan:
"God's envoy, Jiwuli...wuguala...?"
Song Xuan nodded and indicated that this was what the Wuyu tribe was using at that time. The situation at that time was too intense. Even Shuiyun saw the bow and arrow that almost hit Shi Meng at the beginning, but there was another desperate fight, and another The death of the clan members in battle, but this thing was ignored over and over again.
Shuiyun didn't really recall it until this moment, but what he didn't expect was that in just a few months, Teng Snake had figured it out, and the number was even greater than that of the Black Feather Tribe, which meant that Most of these must have been made by Teng She herself.
Of course, Shuiyun didn't know that some of the prisoners were Wu Yu's people who were responsible for making bows and arrows. Otherwise, even if Song Xuan wanted to do it, he would never be able to do it so quickly, both in terms of materials and production techniques. He had been thinking about it for a while, and even if he did it, the effect wouldn't be that good.
Under the shock that everyone in Heishui could not close their mouths, Shi Meng reluctantly taught them the hunting method of Soaring Snake. Of course, this was mainly because he told Shui Yun and the others not to act easily. Before the bow and arrow were fired, , must not attract the target's attention.
However, it is definitely inevitable to be discovered, but even if it is discovered, you still have to observe the archer's situation first. If you hit, then follow the original plan. If the archer has no chance to succeed, then follow the original plan. In the past way, if you can catch up, you will chase it to the end to see who can run faster and last longer.
But it should still be noted that when faced with those prey that disappear in a flash, don't let go as you did in the past. If you can't catch up, stop your losses in time. If you have time to chase, it's better to change the direction and look for the target again.
There are hundreds of miles around here where Soaring Snakes hunt. Don't worry about running out of prey. As long as you maintain sufficient physical strength, you will be able to catch the next batch of prey more easily.
After hearing this new hunting theory, Shuiyun and the others took a lot of time to digest. Of course, many of them were still the sequelae caused by bows and arrows.
However, everyone is also a veteran of hunting, so it is not difficult to understand. Later, when we go hunting, I believe that as long as we get used to it twice, we will be able to cooperate well.
Seeing that Shui Yun and the others were very eager for bows and arrows, Shi Yu and others were not stingy and handed over the bows so that they could also experience it. It was not difficult to use bows and arrows, and they got started with a little guidance.
Although the target is far away, only a few people can actually cover it, but after personal experience, they can truly see the power of bows and arrows. After all, Shi Yu and the others have hit the target. When they come here, it is The range of the bow and arrow can be seen directly.
They can easily shoot fifty or sixty meters, and this is when they aim deliberately and relax the bow string slightly. If they fully draw the bow like Shi Yu, the range will definitely be more terrifying.
Of course, Shi Yu later gave them a demonstration. He stood at the gate of the tribe and asked others to set up a target by the river. Shi Yu actually hit it with one arrow from a distance of seventy or eighty meters. Even Song Xuan They were all a little surprised. They didn't expect Shi Yu to progress so quickly.
The most important thing is that this distance is already the limit of the bow and arrow in the tribe. The farther it is, the more powerful it will be. Moreover, Song Xuan also saw this distance. He did not shoot straight, but with a slight arc, but no matter what, the arrow Right now, it's on target.
Although the target is slightly larger than what everyone usually uses, the accuracy is still very scary. The key is that he has this confidence, which means he is not blinded. You must know that there is a river behind the target. Once he misses, , this arrow was basically a waste. Song Xuan didn't think Shi Yu would do such a risky thing.
Under the cheers of everyone, Shi Yu also showed off a little, and with a graceful flip of his hand, he directly carried the bow and arrow behind his back.
Although the other members of the Soaring Snake Tribe can't catch up with Shi Yu yet, they are no worse than Wu Lin of the Black Feather Tribe before. From a distance of forty to fifty meters, as long as they give them enough time, breathe evenly, and aim carefully, they can basically shoot. The head will never hit the body.
Of course, there will definitely not be such a good environment when hunting, and the psychology will be more nervous, but at that time, we did not pursue such accuracy. As long as we can hit the target, it will cause harm to the prey.
It wasn't until he saw Teng She's bow and arrow that Shui Yun knew why Song Xuan saw them coming to seek refuge. He didn't worry about the lack of food at all and agreed immediately. With such a weapon, there was no need to worry about food unless he was with them. They also encountered natural and man-made disasters.
But Teng She's disaster resistance is obviously much better than theirs. It is far away from the river and the terrain is much higher. The tribe as a whole is four or five meters above the river. It is difficult for the water to rise in such a small river.
As for the man-made disaster, Shuiyun had struggled with it for a long time before he came, and he was still a little worried.
After all, he also knew a thing or two about the strength of the Black Feather Tribe from the prisoners he brought back. Their number was far beyond what Teng Snake could match, and could even catch up with the combined total of the surrounding tribes.
Such a tribe was obviously at odds with Teng She. Although they suffered a temporary loss, Shuiyun didn't think that they would break their teeth and swallow it. They were temporarily forbearing just to prepare for a larger-scale attack in the future.
But even so, Shuiyun is full of confidence at this time. With such a weapon, even if the offense is insufficient, the defense is more than enough.
The combined population of the two tribes has reached more than 170 people. Unless the Black Feather tribe is willing to pay a huge loss, it may be difficult to get close to Teng She.
Although in his imagination, both tribes had such weapons, Soaring Snakes obviously had the advantage. After all, the tribes were surrounded by high walls, and the attacking side was obviously exposed to the threat of bows and arrows. .
In just three days, Teng She brought them many things that subverted their previous concepts. Whether it was food, clothing, or supplies, they were all very different from the previous Black Water.
But fortunately, most of them are upgrades based on the original ones, and as the saying goes, it is easy to change from frugality to luxury, and a good life is easier to adapt to. So Shuiyun and the others were just surprised, and there was no incompatibility. On the contrary, due to these With the emergence of things, everyone has integrated faster.
