Taking advantage of the fact that the wolves hadn't launched the third wave of charge, Chen Chao turned his head and gestured to the members of the hunting team, "Divide into two groups. The front group throws slings, and the rear group throws spears. After throwing the slings, go back." Throw the spear."
Da Zhuang, the Prince of Slinging Stones, led a group of people to stand in front of the team. A waist-high sling was piled up in front of them, while the Little Prince of Javelins led a group of people to stand behind, and all the spears were in their hands.
The wolves who had finished eating the corpses of their companions looked at the blazing bonfire in front of the cave. Their hunger made them unable to retreat. For some reason, the prey on Tianyuan Mountain suddenly decreased a lot recently. Either they were all hiding, or they were all An existence that cannot be provoked at all.
They turned over from the other side of the mountain, exhausted their strength, and could not be replenished for a long time. Moreover, the smell coming from behind the hot thing was too tempting, mixed with the smell of all kinds of meat, making them even afraid of the fire. , and he was unwilling to leave easily until he was hurt.
"Wow~~" The wolf howled at the moon, the cold light of its fangs made people shudder, and the short hair around its lips was still stained red by flesh and blood.
Watching the wolves charge for the third time, Chao Chen ordered, "Throw the sling!"
The sling hit the wolves, making a "bang, bang, bang" sound. Although the sling was not sharp, it was difficult to cause a fatal blow, but its coverage was huge!
While the wolves were being smashed dizzily, "swish, swish," a dozen spears flew out from behind the slinging team.
While you are sick, I will kill you!
This time, more wolf carcasses were obviously left behind. Even some wolves were limping when they retreated. They should have been hit by the first wave of slings.
The whole hunting team burst into cheers, and the joy spread from outside the cave to the inside of the cave, and Chao Chen also had a hint of joy on his face.
But the joy of victory didn't last long. He counted and found that there were more than 60 wolves. It seemed that the wolves had suffered heavy casualties on the surface, but in fact they were not hurt.
Looking up at the sky, the moon was still hanging high, it was still early before dawn, it seemed that it was going to be a night watch.
Thinking of this, he asked in a deep voice, "Yuan, how much wood is there in the cave?"
Yuan thought for a while, then gestured and said, "Not much more."
Chao Chen's heart tightened again. Recently, the amount of wood burned is so large, and the stone ax was only made today. The wood picked up every day is not enough, and it is a ghost if there is more.
In the middle of the night, the members of the hunting team were exhausted and sleepy, but they still did not dare to relax at all, for fear that the wolves would charge again and they would be bitten through their stomachs if they could not dodge in time.
The wood was already saved for burning, and Chen Chao knew that the wolves were waiting. They were waiting for the hunting team when they were most sleepy, and the first three charges made them suffer.
Why isn't it on my own side that they are boiling, they will retreat after dawn, and the bonfire can burn until dawn.
At this moment, Super Chen deeply understood that sentence, build walls high and accumulate food widely!
Finally at dawn, the members of the hunting team kept watch all night, and it was already the sleepiest time.
Yuan added some wood to the bonfire, and the "crackling" sound of burning firewood woke up some sleepy team members.
At this moment, the wolves charged again, Super Chen's expression froze, and he shouted loudly, "Throw the sling!"
Although the wolves were hurt and knocked out this time, they didn't have the slightest intention of retreating. The ones in the front were knocked out, and the wolves in the back stepped on the front wolves, trying to jump up. Jump over the fire.
"Throw the spear!" At the moment of crisis, Chen Chao took the lead in throwing the spear in his hand, and pierced a wolf that was about to jump over the fire.
The one with the spear behind also wanted to follow suit. Before dawn, there was a sound of spears piercing flesh.
It was finally dawn, and the last log in the cave was burned out, and then they realized that it was a pack of black wolves, and they watched the wolves recede. The hunting team who had been guarding the entrance of the cave were all exhausted and paralyzed on the ground. The high-intensity mental tension and physical fatigue made them feel that they had no strength left after the danger receded.
The people in the cave didn't sleep at all, and even some timid children shed tears, which caused the mother who was holding them to cry for a long time.
The old people were much calmer. At first they were protected inside like the children, but later they stood in front of the women and children instead. Because they feel that they have lived for such a long time and lived a good life for a few days before they died. They will not lose anything, but the children are still young, and when they grow up, they can help the tribe hunt and kill a lot of wolves. Revenge himself, so these old men will die first if they want to die.
Super Chen was also very tired, but he couldn't rest yet. The wolves had only retreated temporarily and would definitely come back at night, and he had a crazy idea.
That is to make a big ticket, if all these wolves are taken down, the whole tribe will have winter skins, meat, and danger!
Otherwise, if more than a dozen of them run away at that time, it would be bad to sneak up on the hunting or gathering team at every turn. It would be really troublesome if they attacked the tribe while they were out.
Without Super Chen's urging, the hunting team members who sat on the ground and rested for a while stood up spontaneously, because they also knew that it was not time to rest yet.
The stone ax team took their axes to cut trees nearby, but they didn't dare go far. The old people started to go down the river to catch fish with rattan baskets. In addition to recycling weapons and wolf carcasses, the collection team had to collect more wood, vines, and stones to make tonight's weapons. The whole tribe knew it well. Everything today is only for the defense of the wolves at night.
The rest of the people obeyed Chen Chao's instructions and began to dig a long ditch in front of the cave entrance.
Although the members of the excavation team didn't understand very much, they didn't say anything when they saw their leader Yuan also took the lead in digging.
Yuan Yuan thought of what Chen Chao said to him just now, and couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement in his heart, the wooden stick under his hand flew, and the speed of digging the soil was a little faster.
He still thinks it is very risky, but when he thinks that this ticket is done, the skins will definitely be enough for all the people in the tribe to survive the winter this year, and they can even live with two skins per person!
This is something he never thought about, he thought about the best and most beautiful scene, but everyone in the tribe has a skin!
And Chen Chao's plan is very feasible! Thinking of how he taught the hunting team how to catch moa and how to catch lynx, since he came, the hunting team has never had any casualties!
Chen Chao left behind a stone ax and was about to start making simple wooden shovels for the excavation team.
It is impossible to have a radian. It is to cut the circular wood into slices, and then burn a circular arc with charcoal in the middle, so that another long wooden stick can be inserted easily.
