Super Chief

Chapter 275: Choose a battlefield

In the next two days, despite the expedition team speeding up as quickly as possible, the mount originally used to increase mobility became their burden.

No way, since we want to avenge the Yu Chiren over the Great Wushan Mountain, mobility in the battle is very, very necessary. In fact, these mounts have indeed played a very important role in the battle. Whether it is attacking or retreating, with these mounts, the expedition team has a huge advantage in the battle.

But when these mounts enter the mountains, they completely become a burden. However, everyone except Stone Bear is very precious to these precious mounts, so even if they are greatly affected, no one is willing to discard even one mount.

The result was that even though the expedition team had used their best efforts to speed up, in the next two days, they were still slowed down by the scattered Yu Chi people.

"Stone, it can't go on like this. The number of injured brothers in our team has increased to twelve, although it is not a serious injury, but if this continues, things will definitely be bad. Yu Chiren is obviously determined to leave us alone. Now, we have to think of a way.” After just chasing away more than ten harassing Yu Chiren, Gao Niu solemnly expressed his thoughts to Shi Xiong.

Shi Xiong smiled bitterly: "Uncle, of course I understand this, but..." Shi Xiong looked at the mounts that seemed to be unaware that the danger was still eating the green grass on the ground, feeling helpless again. Shook his head.

"Don't even think about it! These mounts are absolutely not to be left behind. This is the most precious treasure in the tribe." Gao Niu immediately understood the meaning of the stone bear, and wanted to abandon the slow-moving idea of ​​tame bison, stone bear. I've mentioned it to Gao Niu and Bigfoot before, but they met with strong opposition. Even if Dashan still has a giant axe, he is determined to keep these mounts.

"Okay..." Shi Xiong smiled bitterly and raised his hands to surrender. Then he took out a thick kraft paper from his waist pocket with some routes drawn on it, which was the route they had taken before they came.

Staring at the road map that was so simple that no one else would recognize it for a while, Shi Xiong finally pointed his index finger to a point on the simple map and said: "Uncle, if we want to evacuate safely in the end, we will We must find a place where we can have a decisive battle with these Yuchi people. A place that is enough to give our weapons an advantage."

Bigfoot also came closer, and there was a two-inch-long wound on his forehead. When a group of Yuchi attacked yesterday evening, his forehead was wiped with a streamer, and as a result, there was such a wound on his forehead.

"Guardian, I remember that before I came, you once said in a place that if you build a dam under this place, then a lake will be formed here. I don’t know what you mean by a dam, but I think the place you mentioned is not bad, at least the terrain is much flatter."

Shi Xiong smiled and said, "Uncle Bigfoot, the place you mentioned is the place I am referring to."

On the way here, when the expedition squad camped, the camping location chosen happened to be next to Burton Lake in later generations. Later Americans built several dams on the upper reaches of the Tagalog River, forming several reservoirs, among which the uppermost reservoir is called Lake Burton.

It's just that there is no dam at this time, so naturally there is no Lake Burton.

However, the ability to form a huge artificial reservoir in this area proves that the terrain in this area is much flatter, at least in the area covered by Lake Burton, the terrain is much better than the surrounding alpine valleys.

The most important thing is that the Tagalu River has formed several continuous big bends at this location, and because of the slowing of the terrain, the water at the bottom of these big bends has become quite gentle, and The depth of the river has also become very shallow, riding a mount can easily cross the Tagalu River.

In other words, no matter how Shi Xiong and the others go, if they want to return the same way, they must choose to cross the river in this place.

Dajiao and Gao Niu both recalled the scene when they were camping, glanced at each other, and nodded.

"I'll go and tell my brothers, continue to speed up, and we will try to get there in the evening." Bigfoot said as he turned and left, and after a while, there was a sound of Bigfoot's voice.

The exhausted team continued to draw.

Compared to the high spirits when he came, even Shi Xiong did not expect that the way back would be so difficult. Yu Chiren's resilience cannot be underestimated.

After climbing over a hill, the expedition team faced the sun setting sun and began to cross the river in the shallow river beach area.

Even if he chose this place as the location of the decisive battle, Shi Xiong didn't want to cut his own back.

Shi Xiong doesn’t want to do those messy things that are messy. Although the expedition team is not large in number, weapons occupy an absolute advantage. As long as there is a good terrain~www.readwn.com~, even the Yu Chiren can catch up with a thousand people. , They also have the confidence to make a wave.

And this front beach is obviously a very suitable place for muskets. As long as you cross the river and build simple fortifications on the grass on the edge of the river beach, you can rely on the brothers each to have a full 150 left. With more than a dozen rounds of ammunition, Shi Xiong is confident that he will teach Yu Chi to pursue another lesson. Let them fully understand why the flower is so red and why the pot is made of iron!

When they climbed over that hill, Shi Xiong and the others saw some abnormal conditions around them. Obviously, Yu Chiren also wants to complete the final pursuit here.

Even without the help of a telescope, Stone Bear can see the abnormal conditions around this hill. At least there are some abnormalities in six directions. Obviously, there are a large number of people moving in the dense forest in those six directions.

Even in the direction opposite the Qiantan, there seems to be Yuchi people's activities. The Yu Chiren in that direction were obviously prepared to intercept the expedition team, but more Yu Chimen chased and surrounded the expedition team behind and on the flanks.

Since this is the case, it is even more impossible to do things that are ruined. Wouldn’t it be better to cross the Tagalu River and then half-cross the enemy on the other side of the river?

As for the Yu Chi people blocking in front, as long as they dare to show up, Shi Xiong doesn't mind letting them taste the power of the platoon gun.

In the process of descending the mountain, Stone Bear told his brothers in the expedition team about the surrounding situation, so when crossing the river, there was no need for Stone Bear to arrange. The brothers crossed the Tagalu River in an orderly manner, and then on the beach. A simple fortification was constructed on the grassland of the country.

And the mount, after putting cloth strips in his ears, was still driven aside by ten soldiers.

If the estimate is good, Yu Chiren should launch an attack at night!
