Beasts Are Boundless

Chapter 259 Departure For A Long Journey...

The light of the stars shines between the earth and the mountains. The early morning light is warm and comfortable. The weather today is exceptionally good.

Early in the morning, in front of the stone city wall on the north side of the tribe, a large crowd gathered. Under the city wall, standing neatly in rows were front-line warriors.

Above the city wall, there are clansmen with their heads sticking out, hesitant and nervous in their hearts.

today……

It's the day when the tribes marched out on an expedition!

Although it is not to fight, but in the process, it is inevitable to fight, and there will be many, and there will definitely be casualties.

They gather supplies and hunt monsters for the tribesmen. The supplies within a radius of dozens of kilometers are simply not enough to support all the tribesmen through the long winter, so the tribe must have a team to go on an expedition!

Go to far away places, gather supplies, hunt monsters, and bring them back to the tribe.

It's going to be a huge team, basically...

Kind of like a small tribe.

The number of Ye Qiong tribe preparing to travel this time, a total of 350 people!

Among them, there are 20 fighters from Qiongqi, 30 fighters for once-powerful archers, 100 fighters on the first line, and 100 fighters on the second line.

The remaining 100 people, including men and women, are middle-aged people with decent physical fitness. They are responsible for the logistics of the entire team, materials, and post-processing of the monster corpses, and other trivial things.

In addition, in the case of Warcraft, there are Duodao, Dajun and Dakui, as well as 80 snow wolves and 20 horses.

Twenty of the horses were divided into ten groups, and each group was assigned a carriage, which was taken care of by a special clan.

For safety, Ye Qiong also brought two giant crossbows and hid them in two carriages.

In the event of an emergency, you can directly dismantle the carriage, take out the giant crossbow, and throw yourself into the battle.

The long-distance team stood neatly at the door of the stone city wall on the north side.

Before departure, there is a traditional sacrificial ceremony on Xuexing. Although Ye Qiong doesn't believe in these things, but after all, it is also something passed down by the ancestors, so he will not interfere with this, but feels a little ritualistic...

It's not bad, after all, some of the soldiers who went out this time may never come back, so for them, it's not a bad thing to have such a farewell and blessing ceremony.

Since there is a ceremony, it is natural that someone has to speak. Ye Qiong never participated in this kind of thing, so it was handed over to Ye Tianlong.

After all, professional things should be left to professional people to do.

Taking advantage of Ye Tianlong's speech, Ye Qiong carefully checked back and forth on several carriages that were responsible for loading the necessary supplies for the long journey, and confirmed the supplies again.

After all, on Xue Xing, the expedition team of hundreds of people needs to consume a lot of materials and food every day, and they are also responsible for hunting monsters every day.

Therefore, the task of the soldiers is still very heavy, and the material guarantee is a must.

In addition to these materials, the remaining warriors and clansmen are all lightly loaded, and when they return, basically everyone will not feel relieved.

After the sacrifice and farewell ceremony, Ye Qiong officially set off on the journey with his tribe and warriors. The tribe is about to be handed over to Ye Tianlong and Ye Tianling. Ye Qiong's current task is to solve the problem of winter food.

And Tang Ying was not in the expedition team. Compared with the expedition, the next generation of the tribe was also very important, so Tang Ying would definitely not be able to leave.

In order to maximize the efficiency, Ye Qiong did not plan to arrange for the warriors to hunt for the first two days. After all, the monsters with a radius of dozens of kilometers were within this month of spring.

They have already been hunted down by Danny and Dakui. As for the nearby supplies, there is no need to rush to collect them. After all, they are around the tribe, so it is not bad to stay in emergency.

After all, rabbits don't eat grass at the edge of the nest, and it is indeed a good choice to naturally store those standing materials around the tribe.

Ye Qiong rode on Duan's back and walked at the front of the team, followed by the warriors of Rong Ling and Qiong Qi, while the archers and front-line warriors were on both sides of the team.

The soldiers already had a wealth of summer hunting experience. More than a dozen scouts had already been arranged by Ye Qiong. If there was any danger, the entire team would immediately give an early warning.

When it was noon, Ye Qiong looked back at the large army. The speed of the advance was about eight kilometers per hour, neither fast nor slow.

After a noon trek, the team has arrived at the mountain base in the north.

From far away, I saw the location of the Alpine base, and the warriors above the Alpine base also saw the tribe's team at the first time.

At first, I was a little confused and nervous, but when I saw Ye Qiong, Dian Dian, and the two big bears, they knew it was their tribe, and the soldiers also estimated that the day of the long journey was almost here.

So the soldiers on the other side of the high mountain base came down with a three-person team and rushed towards Ye Qiong and the others.

As for the soldiers who traveled far away, after seeing the high mountain base, they can be considered to have written down the location here.

Ye Qiong looked at the high mountain base, and had a good idea in his heart, so he decided to take the warriors and clansmen directly to the north high mountain base.

There is still one afternoon today. Even if you are on the road, it is estimated that you will not be able to go very far. It is better to spend half a day on the base on the north side.

A team of 350 people is definitely different from a team of more than 20 people.

At night, you can rest at the base here with peace of mind. In the morning tomorrow, if you continue to march, you may encounter many emergencies.

Let the soldiers help build the base, and let the tribe prepare meals and tents for the evening.

If the base here can be scaled up when winter comes, then it is completely possible to continue to station a tribe here,

A distance of 30 kilometers, as long as it is not a blizzard, whether it is reinforcements or the retreat of the soldiers here, it will be very fast.

The tents were the first to be set up. There are about fifty tents around the mountain base. There are large and small tents. The larger ones can directly accommodate twenty people, and the smaller ones can accommodate five people.

On the whole, the team of 350 people, with a total of 50 tents, can easily stay.

In just one afternoon, the construction of the Alpine base seems to have some scale.

With so many people working together, it is quite a lively scene. The current Alpine base is a bit of a coal mine base where soldiers live.

With certain fortifications, two stone walls were built directly outside.

The height of the first wall is five meters, and there is a place in the middle where the soldiers can squat down for defense. The height of the second wall is three meters. On the periphery, the distance from the first wall is fifteen meters. This distance It can effectively block the beasts attacking from the outside, and the soldiers can launch an attack within the second city wall.

As night fell, the warriors and clansmen who had been busy all afternoon lit a bonfire...
