Mix the world with space

Chapter 48 The Battle of the Tunnel
"Abba, here!" Xiao Chen shouted excitedly, if Beimu hadn't pulled him, he would have jumped up.

Finally something useful, finally no longer a snack, Chenchen is also a capable person!

It took a long time to direct the hundreds of little black moles that my mother gave me, and finally helped my father find the location of the beast. I can have a snack when I go home tonight.

Xiao Ye smiled and rubbed his son's head, "Son, it's great!"

Don't be stingy when it's time to praise.

Seeing his son so happy that he couldn't find Bei, Xiao Ye found a trace of relief in his heaviness.

Lift your eyes to see where you are.This is precisely the north of the city that has been most neglected in recent months.

Because the east of the city was the closest to the beast veins, and the beasts' attacks were also concentrated in the three directions of east, west and east, so more than half of the guards in the north of the city were transferred to support the other three gates, giving the beasts an opportunity.

It actually took more than half a month to dig a hole and attack. Is this an attempt to sneak into Chen Cang?
He smiled coldly, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

Knowing the exact location and range of the underground stronghold, the next time is to discuss tactics.

At the same time, try not to affect the houses within the range of the underground stronghold.

If Chenchen hadn't discovered the clues early, when the wild beasts dug their holes and attacked, the residents here would have to be slaughtered.

Heh, my Beimu is right, you have Zhang Liangji, and I have bridge ladders.

For this battle plan, Bei Mu also gave a suggestion, lead the snake out of the hole, and catch the turtle in the urn.

After listening to the detailed explanation, Xiao Ye couldn't help but be overwhelmed.The officers of the clan unanimously decided to hand it over to Xiao Ye and An Dong as the general commanders, with the full cooperation of the clan.

Draw the location where the beast will be used as an exit, right near the square.

Some people were left to continue guarding the city wall, and they would report any changes at any time.

Xiao Ye ordered his clansmen to work together to shovel off the thick layer of snow.

The firewood on the square was moved to the designated place, and the inside and outside were tightly surrounded, and some hay was occasionally put on, and hundreds of jars of oil were placed on the outermost edge of the firewood.

From this day onwards, the non-combat clansmen in the square will be dismissed and go home to stay.People within the range of the cave temporarily find another place to live, just in case.

Then, the task of leading the snake out of the cave was handed over to his son Chenchen.

After receiving the task assigned by her father, Chenchen made the most of her dese, bargained with her mother and brother by the way, and searched for all kinds of benefits.

Little Overlord's true nature is gradually revealed, there is no other way, the whole family just wants to pet him.

In order to reduce the noise, a mole is still used to open an exit between the ground and the burrow.

At this time, the whole clan's armed forces were already on standby outside Chaihuo, gathering at the furthest range, and guarded closely, lest a beast break out of the encirclement.

The rest of the clansmen hiding at home were full of worries and fears.Originally thought that this animal horde could pass through comfortably, but who knew that the last step would usher in the panic that they had experienced once again.

Fighting, avoiding, fleeing, sacrificing...

Parents who have lost their sons, women who have lost their partners, and children who have lost their fathers gather in front of the devastated homes after the war, looking for the remains of their loved ones, crying blood and tears.

The tragedies of the beast tide in previous years reappeared in front of my eyes again, which still made me feel physically and mentally painful and shed tears.

Can't escape after all?

******
In a corner of the square, the laborers who were preparing for the battle had solemn expressions and even breathed nervously. They had never fought like this before.

All gathered together, fighting the beast face to face, not fighting or avoiding.

But no one thought about retreating. Behind them is their homeland, and they can't retreat!

Fight or die!

Xiao Ye stood on the high platform, staring closely at the bottom.

He can't tell his son's ability, he can only tell his clansmen that the beast is about to break through the ground, firewood is the first line of defense.

Roar!Ow!The sky-shattering roar came from the ground, shaking the hearts of the people who were preparing for the battle outside. Feeling the vibration from the ground, they were nervous, fearful, and even a little excited.

The ground with only a small opening was constantly hit and squeezed by the fierce beasts in the ground, and the loose soil fell down one after another.It was creepy to watch.

"Pour oil on fire!"

As the order was issued, the clansmen who had prepared early quickly lit the pyre, and the oil poured out intensified the raging fire, and the entire ground was full of flames!
All kinds of ferocious beasts that finally climbed to the ground did not expect that they would be greeted by flames all over the sky.

With scarlet eyes, he ran wildly in the circle of fire, trying to break out of the encirclement.

The huge pile of firewood, neatly stacked, endured the impact of the wild beast and spread the fire to the wild beast.

The size of the hole allows more than a dozen beasts to come out at a time, which limits the influx of beasts and reduces the pressure on the clansmen to fight.

However, with such a long tunnel, no one knows how many beasts will hide below, and how many beasts will charge up desperately.

How long these firewood can burn and what will happen after burning is hard to predict.

In the face of death, the beast also broke out with the greatest force, hitting the surrounding pyre.

The firewood pile, which was originally neatly stacked, gradually became loose, and some of them had begun to slide down.

Just wait.

Gather part of the labor force to go up to the high platform and shoot the bow.

The beast cannot be allowed to break through the first line of defense easily.Once they break through the fire, the clansmen in the second line of defense will face the danger of their lives.

More and more wild beasts came out of the hole, and the impact was getting bigger and bigger. More and more wild beasts jumped out of the ring of fire with their bodies full of fire, and rushed towards the surrounding crowd.

This battlefield was burning with raging fire, billowing thick smoke, mixed with the roars of beasts, and the air even smelled of burning.

Inside and outside the circle of fire lay the dead beasts.

Xiao Ye and others also jumped off the high platform and joined the battle.

Once the beast rushed into the crowd, the people around immediately scattered to distance themselves and shot arrows.Or take out the dagger and work together to fight the beast hand-to-hand.

There are also tribesmen who keep adding firewood.With many years of hunting skills and tacit cooperation, he skillfully started fighting in this small world.

Time passed slowly, and the confrontation continued.

The fire has become smaller and smaller, and there are still wild beasts coming out of the cave, and there are not many wild beasts, and some wild beasts have fled from the cave.

Although it was conceived to surround the beast with fire, the result was not satisfactory.

The combat power of wild beasts cannot be underestimated, especially the power that erupts at the critical moment of life and death, which cannot be underestimated.

The ground was full of corpses of beasts, staining the snow red with blood.

Many clansmen also suffered injuries of varying degrees. Fortunately, no one died, which is already a great luck.

Let the injured clansmen go back to the shed in the square to bandage,
Xiao Ye panted heavily, staring at the entrance of the cave where the fire was gradually extinguished, and there had been no movement for a while, and there was no trace of the beast there.

All the people present were engrossed in waiting for an exciting result.

For half an hour, there was still no movement at the entrance of the cave.

Xiao Ye cautiously observed the entrance of the cave for a while, and heaved a long sigh of relief. This wave was finally overcome.

But this burrow is a hidden danger and must not be kept.

Let people go to beat the gongs and drums to inform the people that the danger is temporarily lifted. The corpses of wild animals on the ground are divided equally according to the team, and the whole city cheers.

******
Women and old people rushed to the square eagerly, carrying the prepared food, to find their relatives.

From morning to afternoon, the laborers on the battlefield only ate some dry food in the middle, and their physical strength was almost exhausted by this time.

Once the pressure on the body and mind is relaxed, it will make people feel more tired.

Seeing their family members hurriedly looking for food, some men's eyes turned red.

Nima, this is the first time I can eat hot food after the front beast.

"Hurry up, eat it while it's hot, I'm afraid it will get cold when I take it over, so I cover it in my arms."

"Hungry, here, I specially made your favorite food."

"No injury, great, eat first, eat first..."

And the family members of the injured patients are very grateful that they are only injured, but their lives are still alive.

Xiao Ye ate the delicious food brought by Yun Duo and the child, looked at the surrounding scene, felt a little relieved, everything is fine, that's all.

Yun Duo specially made rice this time, which is more filling than the usual staple food.

There are also stewed chicken with mushrooms, soft fried tenderloin, shredded pork with Beijing sauce...the dishes are almost all meat.

Eating delicious food, and occasionally grabbing a bite with his own children, Xiao Ye is rarely happy.

At this moment, the scene was extremely warm, and everyone seemed to have forgotten the hardships of the previous moment.

Until the compact gong sound came again——

That is the direction of the east of the city, there are enemies!
In an instant, the warm atmosphere was replaced by tension again.

Xiao Ye looked serious.

"Muri, you lead two teams to block the entrance of the cave, and the others, go up the city wall!"

Some people didn't even have time to eat, put down their bowls and chopsticks, and followed Xiao Ye, An Dong and other commanders to join the battle again!

Looking at the half-eaten food, Yun Duo felt distressed and worried.

It's freezing cold, men are enduring the cold and hunger to defend their homes, what can I do for them?

Just solved the crisis of the underground beasts, and now we have to face an unknown battle, we can't rest, at least we can't let them go hungry,

At the same time, help take care of the injured and solve their worries.

With such a tight sound of gongs as a warning, the battle outside the city must not be easy.

Glancing at the wounded, women and children left behind in the square, their faces were full of worry and confusion. Many of the wounded were bandaged casually, and the wounds were still oozing blood.

Yun Duo frowned slightly, and turned to ask Bei Mu who was sitting quietly beside him, "Bei Mu, can you treat those injured?"

Chenchen also looked at Beimu, her eyes flickering.

Looking up at Yun Duo, seeing her serious expression, Bei Mu put away her casual expression.

He knew that Yun Duo had always respected him, and if he was unwilling, Yun Duo would never force him.

He didn't want to return to his old business, and he didn't care about the survival of the tribe.

However, Abba is working hard for the tribe and the family on the front line, and Grandma is in the rear, worrying a lot, and even Chenchen is quiet.

Even for these three people, he couldn't continue to stand by.

What's more, curing these people will also allow them to join the battle again, and Abba will feel more relaxed.

Although he has never called his father and mother after joining this family, in his heart, he has long acknowledged their position...

Sighing, Beimu nodded.

This is just a matter of effort for him.
