Rock pile base!
After arriving at the base of the rubble pile with the tribe's mobility, second only to the Gale Golden Eagle team, Ronling, news from the cliff side of the basin had also reached here.
That is, the rescue mission is no longer needed. Ye Qiong and the first batch of soldiers who went down did not encounter a crisis in the big cave.
However, the support mission still needs to continue. This newly formed team can also participate in the hunting and gathering missions at the rubble base.
Seeing that summer is almost over, the central tribe’s food and material reserves are not enough to support the tribe’s ten thousand people through the eighteen-month long winter!
This highly mobile cavalry team, with the assistance of the golden eagle knights in the air, is fully capable of hunting and gathering supplies further north.
The soldiers who came with Rongling were actually mentally prepared for a big battle.
Some warriors who came to the Rock Base for the first time were particularly excited. After all, when they were in the central tribe, they had heard about some things about the Rock Base. They were very excited about the basin and the cliff cave over there. Great curiosity and yearning.
Now Ye Qiong has determined that nothing will happen inside, so the soldiers are directly divided into ten teams, with about fifty people in each group. After resting for a night, they will go directly from the Eighth Route Army at the Ruishui Base early the next morning. The door burst out.
At the same time, Ronling selected 30 warriors from a team of 500 people and came to the temporary base on the high slope of the basin.
The team also entered the cliff cave in the early morning, led by Ronling himself, carrying some supplies and food.
As for the area around the basin, there are no longer any Lilin Weasels. They seem to have sensed something unusual and are hiding in the holes on the cliffs, unwilling to come out.
Some larger ferrets gathered at the bottom of the cliff and began to migrate along the bottom of the cliff to the upstream area of the crack. The traces of human activities on this side of the basin no longer allowed them to eat normally...
Inside the cave, with the return of Ye Tianling and several soldiers, the size of the team has expanded to thirty-six people!
If you look at this scale according to that kind of expedition team, it is actually quite large.
After counting the number of people and checking the supplies and equipment again, six people were left on guard in front of the stone gate. All the remaining personnel, together with Ye Qiong, entered the stone gate.
The outer area has now been explored almost, and the entire tribal ruins, only the tower in the center has not been opened.
With enough combatants, Ye Qiong decided not to wait any longer and it was time to go in and investigate.
There is still half of the summer left, and there are still a lot of things to do in the central tribe and the waterfall base. The wooden house base is still facing the threat of the Red Flame Leopard tribe.
Once summer is over, the countdown to winter can begin directly. The time left to stay at the rubble base is actually not much.
Ye Qiong must now lead the soldiers to explore the tribal ruins first, and at least ensure safety.
Then……
I just want to discuss with the tribe’s senior officials whether it is necessary to garrison the Rockpile Base this winter!
A distance of nearly three hundred kilometers is not that close in this world without modern vehicles!
The Rock Pile Base itself has no garrison value. After winter comes, it is actually useless for the soldiers to stay in the base. Although the current Rock Pile Base can already resist small-scale beast tides and monsters head-on. The mad crowd attacked.
But if you just live there and spend the long cold winter, the central tribe is definitely safer.
A bunch of buildings in the wild are of no value to Warcraft. They themselves don't need any shelter from the wind and rain. Digging a hole in the wild and getting in can protect them from the cold.
Perhaps for the mad people, the rubble base is a good place to live, but if there are no supplies and food inside, then there are two things to say. Unless there is a snowstorm during the migration, otherwise, for this kind of They have no interest in the empty human settlements.
As for whether the rock pile base will be used as a habitat by other small tribes in winter, Ye Qiong really doesn't care about this.
It's better to come. The tribe itself is also short of population. The labor force and warriors are like a bottomless pit. There is no fear of more. At this stage, it is absolutely necessary to get as many as you come.
If you don’t agree to submit, you don’t agree to move out?
That’s actually easy to handle. In this era, people and tribes with big fists can only speak easily...
Looking at the entire western region outside the Dinglong Mountains, with the current scale and comprehensive strength of the Ye Qiong tribe, there really are no opponents.
Only the Lanfeng Tribe in the Xufeng Mountains and the several tribes with more than 10,000 people in the surrounding areas can pose a threat to the current Ye Qiong Tribe.
However, due to the distance, there is really not much overlap between these tribes.
If it hadn't been for the Thunder Madman King's trip to the Far North last year, where he rode the King Scavenger back and caused a lot of trouble in the Far North, the Ice Pine Tribe's team wouldn't have been able to survive in the winter. , and chased him all the way to the Dinglong Mountain Range.
The general environment on the west side of the Dinglong Mountains is now dominated by the Ye Qiong tribe.
Take the central tribe as the core and spread to the surrounding areas.
About eight kilometers to the east is the cave defense line. The entire tribe's cutting-edge defense weapons, as well as a new batch of warriors who grow up every year, will be sent to the cave defense line.
The cave defense line already belongs to the tribe as a training ground and a place to test the quality of weapons.
However, the new eyeless monsters did not appear. Those high-level eyeless monsters appeared less frequently since last winter.
This is also the reason why Ronngling was able to escape. The current defense strength of the cave defense line is not high.
Directly north of the central tribe, extending thirty kilometers away, is the mountain base.
The peak where the alpine base is located is also the first peak to the north of the central tribe. It is also a natural barrier because it is also close to the 10,000-meter peak of the Dinglong Mountains.
If there is a tide of beasts, madmen, or even a human tribe, and they want to attack the central tribe from the north, they will have to pass under the mountain base.
While the alpine base forms the first line of defense, the beacon tower on the highest peak can issue early warning to the tribe at the earliest opportunity!
Directly west of the central tribe, thirty kilometers away, is the canyon, which is also the location of the canyon base.
It is also the waterway connection point between the rock pile base and the canyon base.
The direction of the water flow is from the rubble pile base, so the supplies and food at the rubble pile base now basically flow down directly through the waterway.
Boats, rafts, and some animal skin bags that can float on the water have become important means of transportation for the tribe at this stage.
In addition to water transportation, the flying team organized by Gale Wind Golden Eagle is also starting to form.
However, at this stage, he is still receiving training from the soldiers at the waterfall base, and has not directly invested in the transportation of materials and food to the rock pile base and the central tribe.
It is worth mentioning that the Luan Bird Base has now been put into operation and has become one of the backup nests of the Gale Golden Eagle. When the soldiers have something to do, they will bring their own Gale Golden Eagle to carry some supplies. and food fly over to provide strategic reserves for the Luan bird base.
At the base of the canyon and in the upstream area, two giant arrow towers with a height of 20 meters are being built. The giant arrow towers are directly connected with wooden stakes.
A team of seventy people is specifically responsible for this project, which is also a task...
The construction drawings in their hands were an arched building that looked like a shipyard.
The water transportation in the canyon is a transportation line that Ye Qiong attaches great importance to. If the tribe wants to develop water transportation, it must have large ships!
And if you want to build a large ship, it is almost impossible to build it by hand. It is too time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Only by building the dock can tribal water transportation be truly developed.
In order to allow the dock to withstand extreme weather such as winter snowstorms and even ice sculptures, Ye Qiong decided to build two arrow towers and add beams in the middle to form a defensive dock.
The amount of this project is actually quite large, so the tribe specially formed a team of 70 people to take charge of this project.
Members of the team do not need to participate in summer monster hunting and material collection tasks. If this dock can be built before winter, next spring, the tribe will have enough ships to transport materials and food to the rubble base. .
To the east, north and west of the central tribe are the cave defense line, mountain base and canyon base respectively.
Between the east and the north is the coal mine base.
Each of these three bases and the cave defense line is of great significance to the tribe.
If the three bases continue to extend to the north, they will be the giant beast base a hundred kilometers away.
This is also the place where the Lord Lord Forest Ancient Ape and Lord Dimai Rong had their final life-and-death battle.
The final result was that Lord Dimai Rong's body remained here forever.
Until now, the body of Lord Dimai Rong has been preserved very well, with no signs of decay or any peculiar smell.
The soldiers have built a circle of wooden stakes around the body of Lord Dimai Rong.
However, because Lord Dimairong's corpse is too large, capping its corpse would require a lot of manpower and material resources, and would also be technically difficult.
So in order to prevent some of the surrounding monsters and scavengers from coming to take a look out of curiosity, the soldiers directly surrounded the body of Lord Dimai Rong with wooden stakes.
Lord Dimai Rong's corpse is indeed of little use to the tribe now. Cutting it up is a big problem, but Ye Qiong's heart is certain that this lord-level monster corpse will definitely play a vital role in the future development of the tribe. It is of great use, so you must keep it and keep it well!
As for the remains of the gray-white giant beast, the meat has been completely processed, and the unprocessed parts, such as some bone marrow, have long since decayed. Now the skeleton of the gray-white giant beast has become the base of the giant beast. It is a building skeleton and has already reached a certain scale. Before winter comes, the soldiers stationed at the Behemoth Base can live in it directly.
Different from the rubble base, the giant beast base has the body of Lord Dimai Rong and the skeleton of the gray-white giant beast.
Therefore, it is of great value. This winter, the Behemoth Base is an alpine base extending to the north, the first long-distance permanent base.
The soldiers have already begun to store supplies, equipment and food at the Behemoth Base. This winter, there will be about a hundred soldiers here who will stay here throughout the winter.
And these warriors are also at the Behemoth base now, so they work extra hard when building fortifications...
The beast tide and the mad crowd are the two biggest threats to human beings in winter. The soldiers of the beast base must withstand them.
Before winter comes, build as many defenses as possible to be prepared.
The distance from the Behemoth Base to the Rock Pile Base is much closer, but it is still about 150 kilometers away.
If the Rock Pile Base has to be garrisoned in winter, it will be a mixed blessing for the soldiers of the Behemoth Base.
Fortunately, after the Garrison Base is garrisoned, the tribe's first line of defense in the north will be the Garrison Base.
What is worrying is that if the Ruishui Base is garrisoned, then if there is an attack there in winter, the soldiers of the Behemoth Base will be the first defense team to rush over.
Five bases, plus a cave defense line, are the current bases of all forces extending northward with the east-west axis of the central tribe as the cross-section.
Next, it’s time to head south!
First of all, directly south of the central tribe is the southern timber base that provides the basis of building materials for the entire central tribe.
This is also a point of contact between the tribe and the forest apes. Many forest apes will come here to have a meal when they have nothing to do. Now the soldiers of the Southern Timber Base, those who have stayed for more than a year, have been able to pass through some Using simple sign language, I communicated with the forest ape.
A few brave ones were even invited by the forest ape to visit the tree palace!
These warriors also saw the talent of the ancient forest apes in architecture...
If the senior soldiers of the Southern Timber Base had not banned it, they would have planned to bring Simba and several other small forest apes of his generation back to the central tribe for a walk.
If something happens to those little forest apes in the central tribe, Ye Tianlong will definitely ask Liang Yi to pluck the skins of those warriors...
The boat of friendship between the tribe and the forest apes has almost been built now, and there should be no signs of overturning in a short time or even decades.
As for the southern timber base, heading diagonally upward toward the southeast of the tribe, there is the tree palace of the forest ape.
Continuing in this direction, you will pass a large river that can reach hundreds of meters wide in summer.
Going upstream along this river is the base of the waterfall!
It is also the place where the ancestors of the Naning tribe lived thousands of years ago...
Passing by the base of the waterfall and continuing to the upper reaches of the river, there are the branch waters, and one of them, close to the peak of the Dinglong Mountains, is the Luan Bird Base discovered by Qing Zhi last winter!
At this point, it is the entire sphere of influence of the Ye Qiong tribe on the west side of the outer periphery of the Dinglong Mountains.
Eight bases!
A line of defense…
