Chapter 168 Come down!
Speaking of hyena people, Zhou Xu's mood is really complicated.
Now he wants the hyenas to attack, but he also doesn’t want the hyenas to attack.
The reason for wanting the hyena man to attack is very simple. The hyena man is now seriously injured. He and the soldiers are currently in the grassland camp. If they can take advantage of the home field and severely damage the opponent again, In the next period of time, the hyena clan will definitely not dare to take any action, and he will be able to do his own things more confidently and boldly.
But on the other hand, even when their vitality is severely damaged, the threat of the hyena clan cannot be ignored. Once a fight starts, they will inevitably suffer casualties.
Considering this point, he didn't want to fight that much.
This is also the main reason why Zhou Xu is so entangled in his heart.
At the moment, he feels a little bit flat about the group of hyena people on the grassland.
Anyway, they have now formed an alliance with the centaurs. Although the hyenas are a great threat, they can no longer easily destroy their camp.
In this case, just lie down, stay the same in the face of changes, and observe the situation.
Leaving aside the hyena people, let’s take a look at the current situation of their tribe.
The newly recruited recruits are still training, and the cavalry is still training. Although Zhou Xu has his eyes on the tribal population at the barren mountain camp, he wants to mobilize troops to recruit them.
But considering the existence of the Manshi Tribe, it would be better for Shi Lei to stay put and wait for his troops to support him before taking action.
[Considering the training efficiency of the new recruits, we may not be able to mobilize the troops in the fall. 】
【But then winter will come, and there are mountains over there, so it is not safe to mobilize troops, not to mention that there will still be food pressure after winter. Bringing in a large number of people before winter will increase food pressure. No matter how you think about it, it’s not very wise. Why not just postpone the deployment of troops until the spring of next year? 】
Before falling asleep, Zhou Xu kept sorting out his thoughts in his mind.
In just a short time, he has already arranged his plans until the beginning of next spring.
Zhou Xu didn’t think there was anything wrong with this. After all, that was the efficiency in the cold weapon era.
Closing his eyes, Zhou Xu fell asleep quickly.
This time, I don’t know whether it was because he was so deep in sleep that he didn’t notice, or because the little guy already knew that licking him was useless and didn’t bother him, but he let him sleep until dawn.
Zhou Xu sat up in the tent and looked at the little guy stretching beside him. He casually scratched the little guy's chin as a greeting to him.
Leading out of the tent with the follower, the little guy’s breakfast today is still half a minced meat rabbit.
After breakfast, Zhou Xu gave Ye Jinghong and the others a few more words, then quickly got on his horse and prepared to ride directly back to Black Moon Village.
Although the efficiency of an ox cart is faster than that of two legs, it is still faster than riding a horse.
As for his follower...
Zhou Xu carried a big basket for himself, and then put the little guy in the basket.
At this moment, the little guy put his front paws on the edge of the basket on his back and poked his head out of it. At first, his eyes and movements showed a bit of nervousness, but when he saw the person carrying him, After Zhou Xu, he soon relaxed again.
Without Moji, Zhou Xu lightly kicked the horse's belly, and with a 'drive' sound, he embarked on the return journey. His figure became smaller and smaller in the eyes of Ye Jinghong and others, and finally disappeared completely. .
Zhou Xu can ride horses, but only on the training ground near the grassland camp.
It is undoubtedly the first time to go out on horseback like this, or even to travel far away.
Zhou Xu, who was riding on horseback all the way, could feel that his horse could run faster, but he didn't dare to gallop. This was like getting on the road on the first day after getting a motorcycle driver's license. He didn't dare to It's the same as turning the throttle hard.
Now he only dares to let the horse run at a normal speed, but even so, it is much faster than an ox cart.
Zhou Xu, who was riding a long-distance horse for the first time, was fully focused and did not dare to relax at all. In this state, time passed quietly, and Black Moon Village, located in the distance, jumped directly into his field of vision, making him stunned.
【Is this it? 】
The long period of concentration made his perception of time blurred. Now that he suddenly came back to consciousness, he seemed to be in a trance.
I subconsciously raised my head and glanced at the position of the sun in the sky. I blindly estimated that it should be around one o'clock in the afternoon.
【I set off at eight o'clock in the morning, from Grassland Camp to Black Moon Camp. Calculating the time, the whole journey is almost five hours? It’s here? 】
"Ha, hahahaha..."
With the ups and downs of thoughts in his mind, Zhou Xu felt his heart beating wildly, and finally couldn't help laughing.
Although he had been mentally prepared, this movement efficiency was still completely beyond his imagination.
And this is under the premise that his riding skills are not very skilled and he does not dare to gallop on his horse.
In the future, if your riding skills improve and you dare to increase your speed, the time may be even shorter!
This movement efficiency makes the distance between Black Moon Village and the grassland camp no longer a problem.
After his emotions calmed down a little, Zhou Xu just took a deep breath and tried to sit up straight, but in the next second, he immediately gasped.
Maintaining the same position for a long time while jolting on the horse, he really didn't feel anything when he was highly concentrated and excited. Now, as soon as he calmed down, he immediately felt a pain in his back.
At the same time, the hands holding the reins were also holding too hard due to nervousness. At this time, the muscles were stiff and sore.
Of course, this is not the worst...
[Good guy, I can’t feel my legs. 】
Horse riding is much more tiring than riding a motorcycle. During previous training, even Zhou Xu could only ride for about half an hour at a time, and most of the time he just rode at a trot and walked, and the horse's movements were not consistent. big.
And this time, although they didn't gallop on horseback, they still ran all the way, riding for five hours in a row. They didn't receive strong enough professional training. Only if they can bear it can they be brave.
This situation made Zhou Xu temporarily give up the idea of returning to Black Moon Village immediately. Now he can't even get off his horse.
Even if he could dismount, he was afraid that his legs would weaken and fall directly to the ground.
With so many people in Black Moon Village, he is a dignified tribal leader, doesn’t he have no face?
Thinking of this, Zhou Xu quickly took a deep breath while calming down his body. After his legs recovered and he slowly regained consciousness, he tried to turn over and dismount.
But even so, he staggered, almost losing his balance and falling to the ground.
At the same time, he woke up the little guy who was sleeping in the basket.
This little guy is really big-hearted. He was slumped in the basket on his back, bumping and swinging all the way, and it actually had the effect of a cradle bed. He was rocked to sleep until now. The child just woke up.
Then he stretched out his paws, scratched the edge of the basket, stuck out his head, and shouted "Ouch~" at Zhou Xu.
After hearing this, Zhou Xu turned his head and glanced at the little guy.
At this moment, the little guy had one front paw hanging outside and one front paw resting on the edge of the basket. It actually made him look like he was driving around in a car. It seemed that he was quite satisfied with being treated by his old man. My father carried me the whole time.
Seeing this, Zhou Xu lifted the basket behind him after two seconds of silence.
"Come down!"
