After entering the Huirang tribe, Ye Qiong had no intention of moving forward for the time being.
Ye Qiong looked in front, then looked left and right, and found that the tribe was quite quiet.
The Huiliang tribe itself is actually not very large, about the size of two football fields.
The ice wall surrounding the outside is only about four meters high. In terms of scale alone, it is similar to the Ye Qiong tribe the year before. It is the kind of small tribe that needs to migrate all year round, and then find a habitat to hide in during the winter. Make the ice wall taller and thicker if possible.
Once discovered by the beast tide, the ice wall established will be the last barrier to protect the tribe.
For the tribe, building a foreign-funded ice wall is actually a relatively serious matter. According to common sense, although building an ice wall can play some defensive role, it also increases the number of people in the wilderness of Snow Star. Possibility of exposure.
The higher the ice wall is built, the higher the probability of being discovered by madmen and beasts. The two are inversely proportional.
Therefore, some small tribes need to plan in advance whether to build ice walls and how high they should be built in winter.
For example, some small tribes will choose not to build ice walls. They will dig snow caves as deep as possible.
Drill deeper into the ground and disappear on the surface. The only thing you have to worry about is the possibility of being buried alive when a snowstorm comes.
If there is an ice wall for protection, in addition to being able to defend against beasts and crazy crowds, it can also block snowstorms and prevent the snow caves and some buildings in the tribe from being buried.
After a terrible snowstorm comes, it is not as heavy as burying a snow cave just a few dozen centimeters. A larger snowstorm can last for half a month or even a month. The cumulative thickness can reach five or six meters, or even More than ten meters.
Therefore, whether to build an ice wall or not is a headache for small tribes every year.
For medium-sized tribes and some large tribes, it is different. Ice walls must be built. After all, they have strong military strength and are not afraid of ordinary beasts and mad people. However, the losses caused by the blizzard are No tribe can bear it, so for larger tribes, building an ice wall is a must, and there is no choice.
Ye Qiong reached behind his back and touched the bone crystal longbow, wondering if he needed to make some noise next.
Normal people would definitely be nervous or even scared if they entered the territory of a madman, but Ye Qiong was different now.
very excited.
For a soldier who has been fighting the enemy on the front line all year round, this feeling is very refreshing, and it can stimulate the brain to secrete enough adrenal hormones and endogenous phenolphthalein.
Ye Qiong took down the bone crystal long bow, bowed his body and walked slowly inside.
These madmen from the Huiliang tribe probably never dreamed that there would be human beings who dared to come single-handedly into the tribe they had occupied.
In the Huiliang tribe, the main living place for the tribesmen was still in the snow cave, but some ice houses were also built on the ground.
These houses made of ice blocks are very strong in winter, and they are not even pressed against stone buildings. After all, although stone buildings are denser, there is no cement for bonding, so the gaps in the middle are relatively weak.
But the ice wall is different. After it is built, just pour some water on it, and the whole building will be integrated immediately.
A building that becomes a whole is very strong in resisting snowstorms.
When your feet step on the snow, you will inevitably make some squeaking sounds. Although Ye Qiong has been very careful, this is an unavoidable situation, so you can only do it as slowly as possible.
Even a very nervous madman would find it difficult to detect the approach of a human being.
Ye Qiong had also discussed with Ye Tianlong and the elders before, and planned to take advantage of the darkness to bring a team of fifty people, composed of the strongest warriors in the tribe, to lurk directly into the mad crowd. Let's do a surprise assassination.
This style of play is actually very good and can effectively deal with the madman, but there is inevitably a problem.
That is the casualty rate. Even for the warriors in Qiongqi in the Ye Qiong tribe, if they fight a madman one-on-one, the probability of winning is only 50-50, so if there is a surprise attack, the casualty rate is not small. .
If they encounter a mutant madman, then Qiongqi's warrior has no chance of winning one on one. There is no possibility of being directly killed by the mutant madman.
So after deliberation, this style of play was strangled in the cradle. Although this style of play can solve the madman in the shortest time, but similarly, the casualty rate of the warriors in the Ye Qiong tribe is at least There are dozens.
This casualty rate is a figure that Ye Qiong cannot accept now.
Therefore, after the Ye Qiong tribe discussed it, the method of fighting this crazy group was still the same as last winter. They tried to lure them out. After entering the encirclement, they used the threat of giant crossbows to annihilate them in one fell swoop.
In this case, the casualty rate of tribal warriors is the lowest.
It just takes a little more time.
After all, mining, transporting giant crossbows, and setting up traps all require time and a lot of manpower and material resources.
Although the final decision was to conduct an ambush rather than a surprise assassination, it does not mean that a small-scale surprise assassination cannot be carried out.
This thing belongs to special operations, and Ye Qiong is an expert, so he just brought people over tonight.
Tonight, Ye Qiong actually didn't have many targets. If he could kill a dozen madmen, that would be enough.
Nowadays, the protection of the mad people is relatively weak and their vigilance is not high. Like last year, Ye Qiong assassinated many mad people on the first night.
After walking forward for a while, Ye Qiong arrived at a snow cave, so he stopped, put the long bow behind his back again, and took out the bone crystal dagger from his waist.
"Huh huh... Lulu..."
Ye Qiong was next to the snow cave and could clearly hear the snores of the madmen sleeping inside. The madmen were almost all male bodies. Before becoming madmen, they basically ate up all the women, old people and children, except for some with unusual physiques. Only a strong woman like Tang Li could survive when the tribesmen evolved into madmen. This probability is not high on Snow Star, so the probability of seeing a female madman is pitifully low. .
Things are rare and valuable. According to legend, female madmen are the treasures of the madman race. Only those with the level of a century-old madman king will have many female madmen around them.
And mad people basically have the problem of snoring while sleeping.
Ye Qiong flicked the bone crystal dagger lightly and arrived at the entrance of the snow cave.
