Super Chief

Chapter 276: Big duel

To Shixiong's expectation, Yu Chiren did not launch an attack at night.

However, when Shi Xiong saw the dense Yu Chi people on the other side of the Tagalu River in the early morning of the next day, he understood Yu Chi's thoughts.

These silly gangs originally wanted to play a "big duel".

The North American Indians of this era still retain many customs handed down from their ancestors, including this fighting method that later generations nicknamed the "big duel".

Before the Europeans discovered the New World, the Indians living on the North American continent often had wars with each other.

Only compared to the large-scale wars in the Old Continent and the Far East, the Indian wars were much more "mild".

Whether it’s a war between European countries or China on the west coast of the Pacific Ocean, every time a war breaks out, it’s almost a matter of life and death. If you don’t maimed or abolish the enemy or even wipe out the enemy, it’s absolutely impossible. Closed.

From Baiqi’s slaying of 400,000 Zhao pawns, to the brains of people in the Three Kingdoms period, to the Anshi Rebellion, the Mongols’ extermination of the Song Dynasty, and the Western Expeditions of the Great Army... In that battle, any one was taken out to die. Calculated in units of 100,000.

In Europe, the same is true for the wars that have occurred in the past or in the future.

The World War I, World War II, the Russian Civil War, and the Napoleonic Wars that have not yet occurred will not be mentioned. Even the Seven Years’ War that has just ended, and the previous Hundred Years’ War, the Crusades and other wars, the death toll is still in the tens of thousands. The unit is calculated.

However, in the New World of North America, wars between tribes and tribes and between tribes and tribes often broke out, but compared with the wars of the Old World in the Far East, the wars between the Indian tribes of the New World of North America Can only be used to describe it as a family.

The war between North American Indian tribes, even if the number of warring parties exceeds 5,000 people, is considered a rare ultra-large-scale battle in the world. In general, the war between Indian tribes and the number of warriors on both sides can exceed 1,000. It's rare.

The reasons for wars between tribes are usually ridiculous.

To say something that is not exaggerated-what are you looking at? What happened to you? You take another look! Try it, try it...

This is enough to trigger a war between the two tribes.

As for the way of fighting, it is generally this kind of "big duel" that looks very ridiculous in later generations.

The warriors of the two tribes gathered and stood at a distance, and then after the chief or tribal leader gave an order, the two gangs, like gangsters fighting on the street, screamed and brandished their weapons and rushed forward.

But the problem is that the young gangsters on the streets of later generations still have weapons such as watermelon knives that can really hack people to death with a single knife. But what weapons do the North American Indians of this era hold?

Bone knife? Even if that thing hits your head with a stab, it won't kill you, at most it will hit you with a concussion.

Bone spear? That thing can indeed stab people to death, but the two sides in a battle rarely stabbed them directly with a bone spear, and they are usually used as sticks.

As for stone knives and stone axes, they are not as sharp as bone knives. Usually Indians use these things as hammers to hit people.

How many people do you expect such a weapon to kill?

Moreover, in wars between North American Indian tribes, there are very few life-and-death results.

Generally speaking, when a war broke out between the two tribes, a group of people held primitive bone knives, bone spears, stone axes, stone knives, bows and arrows, etc., fighting each other like rookies.

"Report to the Chief, the enemy is strong and we can't hold it anymore."

"Can't hold it? If you can't hold it, then surrender and retreat..."

Then the chief of the weaker party will surrender and surrender, then take his tribe's fighters to evacuate, and give up a certain range of territory for the winning party to occupy.

That's right, the battle between North American Indian tribes in this era is like this. I can't beat you, I can surrender, and I just give up the land for you to occupy. And the winning side will not kill the losing side. As long as the losing side vacates the territory, then a war is over.

When the Cherokees were driven out of the Great Lakes area, they came to Monongahela in the Appalachian Mountains. In order to obtain enough territory, the Cherokees began to fight with the Powatans.

As a result, the Cherokees were more powerful. The Powatans couldn't beat the Cherokees, so they moved east on their own initiative and gave up the territory near Monongahela to the Cherokees.

Similarly, after the Cherokee beat the Powatan, they also beat the Yuchi and the Chekasha, and this occupied an area of ​​nearly 100,000 square kilometers. But the Cherokee did not say that they would drive out the defeated enemies like the European battlefield, they just drove them away.

In general, in this era of wars between North American Indians, apart from that kind of mortal feud, there are very few killings.

Like this kind of war between the Xiaohe tribe and the Yuchi, as long as the Xiaohe tribe surrenders, then the Yuchi will not drive the Xiaohe tribe to extinction. Even if there was an accident such as Shi Xiong, the chief who directly shot Yu Chiren~lightnovelpub.net~, but if Yu Chiren retreated, both sides would not die endlessly.

As a result, Shi Xiong did not have the general idea of ​​Indians in this era. In his opinion, his lover was killed by Yu Chi, and the two sides are endless enemies! That's why Shi Xiong led a hundred warriors on an expedition to the Yuchi Clan.

Obviously, you are already an endless vengeance. You Yu Chi’s two chiefs died under the hands of Lao Shi, but you still want to play this kind of "big duel," whether your mind is in the water or is it What kind of ditch is your mother-in-law caught?

Shi Xiong really doesn't know how the brain circuits of the Yu Chi people on the other side are long, but no matter how long it is, since they are willing to play a big duel, then play it!

Anyway, in this situation, no matter how you play, Lao Tzu will accompany you to the end.

The horns and drums on the other side of the river rang, and then the Yuchi began to prepare to forcibly cross the Tagalu River.

The sound of drums and horns also made the mountain forest on the side of the expedition team's evacuation route noisy, and about two hundred Yuchi began to emerge in the dense forest on the side of the river. The place where these Yuchi appeared was about three hundred meters away from Shixiong and them.

No wonder Yu Chiren wanted to play a big duel at this time. It turned out that they had already set up a net here, just waiting for the stone bears to get in here.

Shi Xiong smiled coldly and said loudly: "Ten brothers will join me to deal with the two hundred Yu Chi people behind us. The others follow Gao Niu's command. As long as the Yu Chi people on the opposite side start crossing the river, they will shoot. Four Duan round shooting. If Yu Chi crosses the river, he only needs to break through the 70-meter limit, 30 people build the shield wall, and the others use bows, arrows and grenades to deal with them!"

Everyone responded in a sudden!
