Chapter 60 Judgment and Strengths

Having personally experienced the effect of garlic, the scout's eyes when looking at the garlic in his hand obviously changed, and his mood also became a little tangled.

Seeing this, Luo Ji laughed twice, "The garlic is given to you as a reward for your mission."

"Really? Thank you boss!" The scout was very happy with this reward. Imagine if he could throw a clove of garlic into his mouth when he was frozen and stiff on a mission outside... …

However, he hadn't finished thinking about it yet. Luo Ji, who seemed to realize something, hurriedly spoke again, "Oh, by the way, let me remind you, you must not eat this when you are on a mission."

"Ah? Why?" He had just thought about it beautifully, but in the blink of an eye, the leader reminded him not to eat when he was on a mission, which made him a little confused.

Luo Ji also casually reminded him, but he didn't expect that he would get it right.

According to Luo Ji's words, he took a casual breath and smelled it, and then his whole face suddenly turned ashen, "Well, this smell..."

"Understood? The smell is too strong."

After seeing that the other party was almost resting, Luo Ji quickly changed the topic to the main 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 out When the opponent's tribe was located, they had already found an opportunity to mark it on the map.

"This location..." Luo Ji's brows furrowed as he looked at the location pointed by the other party, "The periphery of the woods on the west side?"

"Yes." The scout nodded, "From the tribe, if you are familiar with the terrain, it will take about half a day's journey. We did reconnaissance in the original area, and there was no tribe stationed there at that time. , I am afraid that the other party migrated after that."

"What about the number of people? Have you checked this out?" Luo Ji pressed on. This position is a bit delicate. To be honest, it already feels like it will get in the way of each other. Although it has just accepted more than 30 newcomers, if it is a small tribe, Luo Ji had already decided in his heart to forcibly swallow it.

"According to the tents in the camp, I'm afraid there are forty or fifty people..." Having said this, the scout's voice paused a little, "Also, I also saw that there were people in that tribe holding stone axes and stone spears. ."

Luo Ji's pupils shrank obviously when he heard the news, "Is it the tribe we forcibly drove out last time?"

"It shouldn't be." The scout shook his head, "I didn't see any familiar faces in the other tribe."

Luo Ji's heart sank. To be honest, this answer is even worse. The previous tribe, considering the strength of the young leader, is naturally not easy to deal with, but the other party already knows how powerful they are. Deterrence, maybe there is no need to fight. , the other party will obediently leave. After all, he knows he can't beat him, but he still wants to fight. Isn't that blaming himself?

But the current situation has given Luo Ji a piece of news that he didn't want to know at all, that is, the stone axe and stone spear have already spread completely in this area. He didn't expect it to be so fast. The source is them. The Mirror Tribe, but the reason is definitely the tribe they drove away.

This situation represented that the combat effectiveness of the barbarians in this ancient era was on the rise, even though Luo Ji had already developed the sling, a powerful weapon, in order to continue to maintain his superiority in weapons and equipment.

But to be honest, the sling is not difficult to make 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 surge of pressure arises spontaneously. For Luo Ji at this moment, the tribe on the periphery is not really a big threat. What makes him feel threatened is the whole situation, the advantage of his own weapons and equipment. After disappearing, can he maintain his winning streak? For this question, Luo Ji can only draw a question mark, because the weapon advantage is his biggest reliance right now!

"No, I have to create these weapons that the natives can't imitate in a short period of time, so as to maintain a long-term advantage..." With this thought in mind, Luo Ji's first thought was that he was temporarily thrown away because of his frustration in his research. bow and arrow to the side.

Compared with slings, bows and arrows are obviously more accurate and have a longer range. Moreover, slender arrows are much lighter to carry than the heavy basket of stone bullets, and 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 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 definitely not something that can be learned at a glance. , as long as he can successfully create a bow and arrow, it will be enough for Luo Ji to maintain his weapon advantage for a long time!

In addition, there is actually some research on armor. The animal skin that focuses on warmth obviously cannot be called armor. However, he will have to think about these things slowly later.

After signaling the scout to go back to his tent to rest first, Luo Ji called Luo Yong and Zhao Pan over, motioning them to pay attention to the location on the west side when arranging patrols, and clearly told them that there were other tribes 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 it's too unwise to fight this tribe now, pay attention to guarding 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, leave them alone, and pay attention to hiding the slingers. After all, it's a hole card, and with that tribe, it's inevitable to play one more hole card later. , one 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 have to say, you guys can continue to train." After watching Luo Yong and Zhao Pan leave, Luo Ji ran to the Ordnance Department again, motioning them to continue studying 'bow and arrow', and clicked I don't know if the first-level ordnance research and development can come in handy.

After returning to his tent, Luo Ji quickly pulled out a piece of animal skin, intending to ponder the issue of armor. The first thing that came to mind was obviously leather armor. Although they were wearing animal skins now, But it is a hundred and eight thousand miles away from leather armor, and there is no defense at all. If he remembers correctly, it seems that he has to undergo some hardening treatment...

The update is sent. It seems that there is a good recommendation position. The collection is increasing very fast. I set the rules for adding updates before.
