On the water channel side, Qingzhi and Na Ning were together, followed by two warriors from the Na Ning tribe, and three forest apes on both sides.
There is Xinka, and the remaining two are from the Naning tribe.
After the small team arrived at the wooden house base, Ye Qiong just came back with Daidai.
The army stayed there and continued to dig holes for themselves. While Ye Qiong and Daidai were away, the army's mission was still relatively important and they needed to guard the wooden house base.
Now that hundreds of people from the Na Ning tribe have joined the wooden house base, the scale is also much larger.
Compared with the poor warriors of the Ye Qiong tribe and the powerful archers, these warriors are still inferior in strength.
But it is similar to the frontline warriors in the tribe.
It will be of great help to improve the defense of the wooden house base.
On the thirty-meter-high arrow tower, arrows are now abundant.
With a high degree of blessing, the arrows shot by half-strength archers can also cause considerable damage.
The scale of the five arrow towers continues to expand.
Ye Qiong's original plan was to build the five bases around the wooden house base according to the scale of the fortress.
The direction of expansion is to enable each arrow tower to form a building that does not require external reinforcements and can be defended for a long time.
Sufficient supplies and food will be stored inside. After the wooden house base is attacked, the door under the arrow tower can be closed directly.
Form a closed defensive fortress!
Currently, each arrow tower can accommodate about fifty warriors, and the cage-like space below is still very large.
The capacity of fifty people is only temporary. It's hard to say what scale the back of each arrow tower will be expanded to.
Ye Qiong's goal is to be as big as possible. The wooden house base is currently the only known place for the Ye Qiong tribe to access the Dinglong Mountains.
Its strategic importance is self-evident.
This is a place that the Ye Qiong tribe must not lose.
When the scale of the arrow tower increases in the later period, there will be many giant crossbows placed on one arrow tower. It would be better if mortars and the like can be put out.
But by that time, the Red Flame Leopard Tribe will probably have been subdued by Ye Qiong. By then, the wooden house base and the waterfall base will be basically safe as long as they are not attacked by the beast tide.
At that time, whether to reduce the defense of some wooden house bases will depend on whether new enemies appear.
As for the beast tide, the nature of the threat is different from that of human tribes.
If they encounter such a large-scale beast tide, the tribe can just retreat. When there are sufficient supplies and food, there is no need to fight to the end.
After all, the wooden house base has no meaning to them. After eating the food here, they will naturally look for a new place.
A place without food, no matter where it is, has nothing to miss for the beasts.
Just look for the next place.
Qingzhi and Na Ning looked at Ye Qiong who was riding dumbly, jumping lightly towards Ye Qiong and waving their right hands.
Ye Qiong rode Daidu to Qing Zhi and Na Ning's side.
After staying in the Waterfall Cave for so long, Qing Zhi and Na Ning both looked pale, although they looked better.
However, this kind of beauty belongs to the kind of beauty with a hint of morbidity, which is not very healthy, and has a sad and beautiful feeling.
It's white, but you still have to come out and bask in the star's rays from time to time.
Ye Qiong jumped off his dumb back, looked at Qing Zhi and Na Ning, first said a few words to Qing Zhi, and then waved to Na Ning as a greeting.
Although the language is not clear, the facial expressions, emotions, anger, sorrow and joy can all be seen.
It's like walking on the street and seeing a foreigner who doesn't understand the language at all. In fact, they can still communicate simply by using sign language that they are unfamiliar with.
The specific location of the Na Ning tribe is based on the base of the wooden house. With their back to the base of the wooden house, the direction to the right is the direction of their tribe.
As for the specific distance, it's not close anyway.
It can be estimated from the fact that it took about a week or so for the few warriors who reported back to the tribe to come back.
A conservative estimate would take Ye Qiong and the others two days to pass through the dense forest ahead.
Therefore, we must stay in the dense forest for a few days, so it doesn't matter when we set off. There is not much difference between starting in the morning and starting at noon, as long as we don't go forward at night.
At the wooden house base, with the warriors of the Na Ning tribe participating in the defense, the warriors of the Ye Qiong tribe will naturally feel more relaxed, and they can just spare some people to go with Ye Qiong.
Supplies and food are still needed on the road.
On Ye Qiong's side, in addition to Ye Qiong and Qing Zhi, there were five Qiongqi warriors in the traveling team.
A small team headed by Hua Huangji.
Huahuangji and the others each came equipped with a Snowy Demonic Wolf.
Counting Dudu, the number of monsters here is six in total.
The other ones are Xinka and another forest ape. Ye Qiong has never regarded them as Warcraft, but as partners, so they will not be counted among the ranks of Warcraft.
On the Na Ning tribe, besides Na Ning, there are two female warriors and five male warriors, a total of eight people.
Like the Ye Qiong tribe, everyone comes with a Snowy Demonic Wolf as standard, and there are also five ancient forest apes.
Although such a team does not have many people, its overall strength is not weak.
Even if you encounter a small beast tide, it is enough to deal with it. The front is just right, and there is still no problem in safely evacuating.
After the team gathered on the ice in the water in front of the wooden house base, Ye Qiong once again asked the soldiers to check the supplies, food, weapons and equipment.
After confirming that there was no problem, Ye Qiong's right hand gently patted Dadu's forehead, and the team began to walk towards the dense forest.
Soon, Hua Huangji rode the snow-covered wolf into the dense forest, and the wooden house base resumed its daily defense construction.
The dense forest inside the Dinglong Mountains is generally higher than the waterfall base outside.
According to Qing Zhi, if you want to go to the Na Ning tribe, you need to get out of the dense forest first.
The environment in the Dinglong Mountains is still very complicated.
The wooden house base extends inside, and within two hundred kilometers, there is a dense forest belt.
So if you look at it from above the wooden house base, the dense forest looks like an ocean, with no end in sight.
Although the vegetation in the dense forest belt here is higher than that of the dense forest belt outside the Dinglong Mountains, the snow inside is much less overall.
This is also the reason why you can pass through the dense forest in a few days. If the snow level inside the dense forest is the same as that outside the tree palace, you may not be able to cross the more than 200 kilometers of dense forest in a week or so.
