Having personally experienced the efficacy of garlic, the scout looked at the head of garlic in his hand obviously changed, and at the same time his mood became a little tangled.
Seeing this, Luo Ji laughed twice, "The garlic is for you, it's a reward for your mission."
"Really? Thank you, leader!" For this reward, the scout was very happy. Imagine that when he was performing a mission outside and was frozen stiff, if he could throw a clove of garlic into his mouth ¡
However, he hadn't finished thinking about it yet, and Luo Ji, who seemed to have realized something, hurriedly said again, "Oh, by the way, let me remind you, you must not eat this when performing tasks."
"Ah? Why?" He was thinking beautifully just now, but in the blink of an eye, the leader reminded him not to eat when performing tasks, which made him a little confused.
Luo Ji just reminded him casually, but he didn't expect him to be right, and he couldn't laugh or cry in his heart, "You will know by breathing and smelling it yourself."
According to Luo Ji's words, he took a casual breath and smelled it, and then his whole face turned livid, "Well, this smell"
"Got it? The smell is too strong."
After seeing that the other party had almost rested, Luo Ji quickly changed the topic to the business. The scout quickly spread out the map he was carrying, and then pointed to a mark somewhere on the map. Obviously, when he found When the opponent's tribe is located, they have already found an opportunity to mark it on the map.
"This location" Looking at the location pointed by the other party, Luo Ji's brows became more and more tightly frowned, "Outside the woods on the west side?"
"Yes." The scout nodded, "It will take about half a day to start from the tribe if you are familiar with the terrain. We have scouted that area before, and there was no tribe stationed there at that time. , the other party probably migrated here after that.¡±
"How about the number of people? Has this been checked?" Luo Ji asked. Luo Ji had already decided in his heart that he would swallow it by force.
"Based on the tents in the camp, there may be forty or fifty people" The scout paused a little at this point, "Also, I saw someone in that tribe holding a stone ax and a stone spear .¡±
Luo Ji's pupils shrank obviously when he heard the news, "Is it the tribe that we forcibly drove away last time?"
"Probably not." The scout shook his head, "I haven't seen any familiar faces in the other tribe."
Luo Ji's heart sank. To be honest, this answer was even worse. The previous tribe, considering the strength of the young leader, was naturally not easy to deal with, but the other party already knew how powerful they were, so they might not need to start a fight if they were to be deterred. , the other party will obediently leave. After all, knowing that he can't beat him, he still wants to beat him. Isn't that just asking for guilt?
But the current situation allowed Luo Ji to learn a piece of news that he didn't want to know at all, that is, stone axes and stone spears had been completely spread in this area, and he never expected it to be so fast. The Mingjing tribe, but the reason is definitely the tribe that was driven away by them at the beginning.
This situation represented that the combat effectiveness of the barbarians in ancient times was on the rise, although Luo Ji had already created the sling sling in advance in order to maintain his superiority in weapons and equipment.
But to be honest, the difficulty of making a sling is not high at all, that is to say, after seeing it a few times, it is very likely that the other party will learn it
Thinking of this, a sense of pressure arose spontaneously. To Luo Ji at this moment, the tribe on the outskirts was not actually a big threat. What made him feel threatened was the whole situation, and the superiority of his own weapons and equipment. After all is gone, can he still maintain his winning streak? For this question, Luo Ji can only draw a question mark, because the advantage of weapons is his biggest reliance at present!
"No, I have to create weapons that these natives can't imitate in a short period of time, so as to maintain a long-term advantage" With this in mind, Luo Ji's first thought was that he was temporarily thrown away because of the setback in his research. To the side of the bow.
Compared with slings, bows and arrows are obviously more accurate and have a longer range. Moreover, the slender arrows are much lighter to carry than the heavy basket of stone bullets, and basically will not affect the march. efficiency.
At the same time, the most important point is that bows and arrows are difficult to be learned by the natives of other barbarian tribes in a short period of time. Although it looks simple, in fact, the workmanship and selection of materials are very particular, and it is by no means something that can be learned with just a few glances. ,if onlyBeing able to successfully manufacture a bow and arrow is enough for Luo Ji to maintain his weapon advantage for a long time!
In addition, there is actually some research on armor, and the animal skins that only focus on keeping warm obviously cannot be called armor. However, he will have to think about these things later.
After signaling the scout to go back to his tent to rest, Luo Ji called Luo Yong and Zhao Pan over, signaled them to pay more attention to the location on the west side when arranging patrols, and told them clearly that there were other tribes over there. The presence.
Hearing this, Luo Yong was eager to try, "Patriarch, do you want to do it?"
"No hurry." Luo Ji waved his hand, "We haven't had time to arrange the more than 30 people we just captured, and now it's too unwise to fight this tribe again, pay attention to them first, and wait for a while. Time, as long as the other party doesn't cross the line and doesn't take the initiative to provoke us, just leave them alone, and pay attention to hiding the slingers, after all, it's a hole card, and that tribe will definitely have to fight in the future, one more hole card , just one point more chance of winning."
Luo Ji's decision made Luo Yong a little depressed, but Zhao Pan, who also paid more attention to tactics and the overall situation, nodded understandingly.
"Okay, that's all I want to say, you guys continue to train." After watching Luo Yong and Zhao Pan leave, Luo Ji ran to the Ordnance Department again, motioning them to continue researching the 'bow and arrow', and clicked. I don't know if the first-level ordnance research and development will come in handy.
Then Luo Ji, who returned to his tent, quickly dug out a piece of animal skin, intending to think about the issue of armor. The first thing that came to his mind was obviously leather armor. Although they were wearing animal skins now, But it is far from the leather armor, there is no defensiveness at all, if he remembers correctly, it seems that it has to go through some hardening treatment
