Chapter 76 Battle of Beacon Tower
"Oh... I'm really unhappy." Abori and the others were helpless, but it was true.

During this period of time, Xin Qu trained them to turn back and run long distances, but he was training them to death.

Every day they run from the forest area to the Xin family, and they have to cooperate with training on capture-the-flag and scout-related subjects. A lot of their horses have been scrapped due to the high-intensity training, and the ones they are riding now are all replenished three days ago.

Although galloping like a horse is fun, it's more numbing. After all, Xin Qu's training method is too repetitive and torturous.

The teenagers naturally want to make meritorious deeds, and then quickly finish these unlucky subjects so that they can train for other subjects.

The same goes for Ax. As Xin Qu's younger brother, he often complained to Xin Qu about his training methods.

But Xinqu would always tell him to sweat more during practice and bleed less during battle.

The cost of any cavalry is high. I would rather spend more money and energy to get one dozen than eight.

Therefore, Ax gradually realized that Xinqu had completely transformed himself into the role of the clan leader.

Budget carefully.

But all this changed on the day the Ze tribe arrived.

The last time I saw it, it was a tribe with the slave Xiao Qian.

As a result, I saw again that there was only a remnant of three hundred young men who had been sacrificed and slaughtered by Shang Xiaoyi.

This reality made Xinqu almost breathless.

He doesn't want to become a sacrifice!

"Clan leader! The enemy has gone uphill, and Chuan Ji is counterattacking."

In the north of the beacon tower, a hundred young men, led by Xin Qu, wearing leggings, straw sandals and turbans, ran wildly near the tree stumps in the north.

Scout Tree Black Shoulder came back from the front: "It's the Changchong clan. Their clan leader has been replaced by Dashu. This is the strongest man in the Changchong clan, and he also has three shabby old chariots."

Xin Qu's eyes were sharp: "Are you sure there is a chariot?"

"Yes!"

Xin Qu put his hand on the crossbow with a cold look: "Then leave the chariot! Come, follow me around, shoot the people first, shoot the horses, kill all the horses, don't let them escape!"

Xinqu and his men approached quickly.

"Damn it! Aren't all the men with the Xin family taken away by Shang Xiaoyi? Why are there still such men?"

The bald man was originally worried about the flag-bearing cavalry that appeared in the south. These little guys were hanging around nearby and had no intention of coming up yet.

Then, when he turned around, he suddenly saw a group of big, dark men rushing over from between the tree stumps.

He was so frightened that he immediately recalled his tribe, but seeing the speed at which the forwards retreated and the position where Xin Qu ran, he could only move forward.

We must meet up with the disciples as soon as possible.

Xin Qu didn't say anything when he saw his actions.

Military training in this era is actually more of an evolution of hunting.

Tribe-to-tribe wars, unless they are mortal enemies, will not start as soon as they meet.

Because the real precious thing in this era is people, and no one is willing to trigger mass murder for a trivial matter.

Unfortunately, the Changchong clan and the Youxin clan are mortal enemies.

The chiefs of the Changchong clan died at the hands of the Youxin clan.

Therefore, they will implement any tactics that can weaken the enemy without hesitation.

Before, among the last group of women and children who migrated with the Xin family, there were not many men who could fight.

This is why Mr. Changchong rushed up like crazy when he saw this scene.

Because the natural physical difference between men and women was a natural chasm in an era when technology was underdeveloped.

They are confident that they can win this war quickly.

It's just that they underestimated Xin's ability in position design.

The beacon tower is located on a modified slope, which can form an effective bow and arrow suppression.

Of course, this is not the key to victory. Changchong still has the confidence to charge forward, but he just needs to pay more lives.

But for this year's severe drought, as many people as possible will die, which will also save food.

Anyway, as long as the woman is captured, the tribe will give birth to more children next year. A man's life is exchanged for a woman who can give birth to six children in her lifetime. This is a good deal.There are no moral constraints, just simple return on investment calculations.

Unfortunately, what Changchong didn't expect was that reinforcements from Xin would come so quickly.

At the beginning of the war, the two sides had only been fighting for a few rounds, and it didn't take more than an hour before the people came?

All in all, the bald leader of the Changchong Clan looked solemnly at the enemies pressing up on his north side.

And those damn bastards on the mountain were attacked when they were going down the mountain, and several more bodies were left behind. They rolled down and their morale was greatly damaged.

"Guard! Don't move, men stand at the front." Wu Xiaoye gave orders on the beacon tower, "Chuanji, you and the remaining men are ready to reinforce the clan leader at any time."

"Yes!" Kawaji called the men to stand in front, and the old men who could run also picked up weapons.

The women still stood obediently behind the men.

"Chief Xinqu, the Changchong clan reacted too quickly." Zeyu, who was beside Xinqu, frowned and straightened his helmet with a serious look on his face. "I heard someone said that the Changchong clan seems to come from the collapse of the Dayi Shang clan in the south. Soldiers, they should have been carefully trained."

Xinqu nodded.

Disciples and charioteers are not things that small tribes can produce.

The reason why the Changchong clan is difficult to fight is because these guys have chariots, which are great weapons on the plain battlefield.

In recent years, the flooding of swamps in the Haihe River Basin has limited the intensity of their wars, otherwise the Changchong clan would have killed everyone.

This year, the drought is severe, the land has dried up, and the swamps have turned into grasslands. Changchong's strength will be significantly improved.

But luckily, the Changchong Clan does not have many bronze wares. Similar to the Xin Clan, only the clan leaders and elites have bronze wares.

But now with the addition of the Ze tribe, Xinqu brought Zeyu and his group of 28 warriors wearing leather armor and carrying bronze axes.

This is the family wealth of the Ze tribe, and it was also the family wealth given to this tribe when the Su family separated the tribe.

"Please take your warriors to the northwest. I will lead the men to attack the car head-on, and then wait for the opportunity to kill the disciples."

"Rush the car?!" Zeyu looked at Xinqu in disbelief, "Chief Xinqu, this will kill many people!"

"I understand what you mean, but I need to make it clear to the clansmen that the true strength of the chariot is not invincible." Xin Qu's eyes were sharp, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"..."

Zeyu turned around and saw that Xin's combat power composition was very special.

Sergeant, sergeant, corporal, countryman, commoner, naturalized, slave, the relationship between superior and inferior is very clear.

But some people from the Xin clan will also be transformed from the main soldiers in the war to junior officers commanding a corps or an army.

It was not until today that Xinqu completed the establishment of the main young and strong junior officers of the Xin family. The titles were not used for the time being. After all, without a war to clarify the top and bottom, it would be difficult to convince each other.

But the opportunity for reorganization is right in front of us.

Zeyu didn't know whether to remind Xin Qu.

The Changchong Clan only has three chariots, no matter how powerful they are, how powerful can they be?

Real war is not like this.

Especially the car rides provided by Dayi merchants are very powerful!
But Xinqu deliberately created a real war like this.

Because the cavalry will try their best to enter the stage of history in advance in the next year or two.

As long as he defeated the chariot at a small cost, Xinqu would have a reason to replace it with more cavalry and more flexibility.

Now that the Guzhu clan is heading south, Shang Xiaoyi is pursuing the Guzhu clan. The main force has left the Haihe River Basin and officially entered the Yellow River Flood Area in Hebei.

Xinqu's plan to withdraw Qingzhuang couldn't keep up with the changes, so he had to find a way on his own.

Let’s break the myth of the chariot’s invincibility first, and then bring in the stirrups and saddles, and the horseshoes can come later.

As long as the development of the real cavalry is completed, we can take advantage of the window period when the Dayi merchant forces completely withdraw from the Haihe River Basin and swallow up the entire Haihe River Basin!

A rare opportunity!Must do!

"Your title is right in front of you. Today, everyone who raids the battle will be counted as one head. No prisoners will be taken in this battle. Anyone who dares to offend me, the Xin family, will be killed without mercy!"

Xin Qu raised his bronze ax and pointed forward: "Follow me!"
