Duoduo, who had been promised by Zhang Xiaobao, jumped up and down as he walked. His head kept looking back and forth. Several times, he wanted to tell his tribesmen the good news, but he restrained himself.
He was afraid that if he told the news, when his tribesmen met the leader of the big tribe, someone would accidentally spill the news. If the leader knew, he would be angry and kill all 126 of his tribesmen.
Even though he had come with the Tang team, who could guarantee that the tribe leader would kill him in a fit of anger? Even if the Tang people helped him take revenge, he would still be dead.
Duoduo was happy, so he asked the strong men in the tribe to work hard to hunt. They all pulled their bows and arrows and worked very hard. It was a pity that there were no metal arrowheads.
Zhang Xiaobao's tribesmen had metal arrowheads, but they were not suitable for the shafts of bows and arrows. They carried crossbows, which were shorter than bows and arrows, but they saved strength, had a long range, and had high accuracy. There were two ways to load the crossbows. One was to kick the crossbows directly, the other was to shake the handle beside it.
Crossbows were more convenient for assassination than guns. They were less noisy, and the most important thing was that the arrows could be retrieved.
Duoduo looked at them with envy. At the same time, he was surprised by their ability to adapt to the terrain. Every time he saw someone with a crossbow, he would take a second look. However, he did not ask for it. He knew that the crossbow and the set of arrows were dozens or even hundreds of times more valuable than the set of knives he just got.
Fortunately, Zhang Xiaobao gave him another set of knives. They were not for cooking, but for carpentry. The bows and arrows they used were made from tree branches. With a good knife, it would be easier to cut them, and it would be more accurate. The tail feathers used to balance the arrows would also be easier to find.
The tribesmen could make bows and arrows as they walked. The workmanship was rough, but the effect was good when they hit animals.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan also understood this, so they always asked the Tang army to be very careful. With traps and long-range weapons, they could teach the enemy a lesson.
Duoduo didn't know that the bows and arrows used by his tribe would make Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan nervous. He always felt that the Tang people's weapons called guns were more powerful.
He wasn't wrong in his thinking. It was indeed powerful. However, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan had requested for zero casualties, and they really did it. They didn't die directly from the other party's offensive weapons during the course of the battle. As a result, the pressure on the logistics team increased, and they had to exchange money for lives.
Duoduoduo didn't know how valuable the lives of the Tang people were. He was looking forward to seeing how the thing called a gun attacked. Seeing that Zhang Xiaobao didn't use it, he couldn't help but ask, "Gun, let's have a shot?"
Zhang Xiaobao hesitated for a moment and nodded. "It's just one shot. It's not easy to reload the bullets. It's like a bow. An arrow can be retracted after it's shot, but a bullet can't be used immediately after it's shot. If the shape changes, it has to be reloaded. It's very troublesome."
"You don't have enough bullets?" Duoduo asked.
"It's enough to kill you ten thousand times over," Zhang Xiaobao threatened.
Duoduo waved his hand. "That's not what I meant. Let me have a look."
Zhang Xiaobao stretched out his hand, and someone handed over a sniper rifle.
After receiving it, Zhang Xiaobao took it apart and reassembled it. His hand gently stroked the body of the gun, and his face was also attached to the gun, feeling the trace of coolness.
Duoduo, who was watching from the side, felt that it was very strange. It turned out that the gun could be taken apart, but why did it feel that Zhang Xiaobao wasn't holding a weapon to kill people, but a beautiful woman? Looking at Zhang Xiaobao's woman, Wang Juan, her eyes were so gentle when she looked at the gun. What's going on with these two people?
"When we pick up a weapon, we are one with the weapon. It's like you have a good bow. The chef's knife and the Weaving Girl's needle are all like this. Let's go, let's go to the front."
Zhang Xiaobao said and called Duoduo to rush forward. Behind them, there was the sound of messy footsteps. The nine little guys and Xu Yilong also followed, wanting to see the fun.
There were many wild beasts in places that had not been extensively destroyed by humans. Soon, the group found a deer. It was an adult male deer with ten forked antlers on its head. It was leisurely eating grass about three hundred meters away from the group.
In fact, there were people on the other side of the deer, but it didn't meet them. They were scouts, and they had to advance twenty miles.
Zhang Xiaobao chose to shoot while standing, and he didn't have any support. Just as he was about to aim, someone beside him pulled his clothes.
"Brother, let me do it, okay?" It was Xiao Nan who spoke.
"Okay." Zhang Xiaobao handed the gun over. Xiao Nan stretched out her hands and caught it. Looking at the deer, she took off the scope and found a place to lie on the ground. She patted her right shoulder with her left hand and put her right hand on the trigger. She aimed with her eyes and began to adjust her breathing.
Waiting and waiting, Duoduo didn't understand what a little girl was waiting for. Just as he was about to speak, a sudden gunshot sounded, startling him. The deer had fallen to the ground, and only its four limbs were still moving slightly.
"Rub it, rub it." Xiao Bei shouted and ran to Xiao Nan's side, squatting down and rubbing Xiao Nan's shoulders.
Xiao Nan was very shy and stood up. "It's okay. I'll be fine after a while. It doesn't hurt."
After saying that, she still shook her arm. It was obvious that the recoil just now made her feel uncomfortable. Usually, she didn't use a sniper rifle to practice. Her pistol was also the most accurate among the nine of them. Her firing speed was also fast, and she could hit anything within 35 meters.
Duoduo looked at the fallen deer, and then looked at the girl who had just used the gun in disbelief. He ran toward the deer. When Zhang Xiaobao and others came near, he was still observing.
There were no other wounds on the deer's body. Only its eyes were messy. When he lifted the deer's head, the other eye was also the same. Needless to say, it must have gone in from one eye and come out from the other.
Duoduo looked back at the place where he was standing before and looked at Xiao Nan again. He asked in surprise, "You can hit the eyes from so far away?"
"I … I didn't aim at the eyes. I aimed at the head. It was so far away, and I didn't use the scope. I couldn't see the deer's eyes." Xiao Nan was still shy and didn't show any pride. She knew that her brother and sister were better than her. She needed to continue practicing.
"Why didn't you use the scope?" Duoduo didn't understand.
"My brother and sister said that before a person with a good sense of shooting, using too many auxiliary tools will suppress his talent. I have to shoot by feeling. I want to be one with the gun. My brother and sister said that many snipers are good at shooting and can carry out tasks easily. However, one day, when they are fighting with a talented sniper, the gap will be revealed. One is a gunsmith, and the other is a god of shooting.
A gunsmith is for the task and planning the target, while a god of shooting is for the control of the field. A god of shooting who doesn't waste his talent and works hard can sometimes even control the shooting range by intuition. Within that range, he is a god of shooting. "
Xiao Nan said with yearning. She was still holding the sniper rifle.
Duoduo couldn't understand how powerful a god of shooting was, but he knew how powerful the little girl in front of him was. At such a far distance, where the arrow couldn't reach, she could hit the head as she wished. If it was a normal person, he would probably die.
No wonder the tribal leaders were so scared when they talked about the weapons of Tang. Even children could kill people easily. It was said that there were countless people in Tang. If everyone had a gun …
Duoduo didn't dare to think about it anymore. He used to admit that Tang was powerful, but it was just an impression. When he saw the team of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, he felt that Tang had countless good things. Now, he really admitted that Tang was unimaginably powerful.
While he was thinking, Zhang Xiaobao had already skinned the deer. This deer skin was too complete, and the deer was not small. He could make something for his brothers and sisters.
After thinking about it, Duoduo found that a large part of the deer's skin had been skinned very well, even better than his. He was too embarrassed to help, so he squatted aside and watched. Then he said to Zhang Xiaobao, "The deer head should be given to your sister."
"No." Zhang Xiaobao replied casually.
"It is the symbol of a warrior. When our children hunt for the first time, they will leave a part of the beast for their children." Duoduo thought that Zhang Xiaobao was greedy for the deer head, so his tone was a little different when he persuaded.
Zhang Xiaobao didn't stop. "Can I leave it? She has killed too many animals. The purpose of killing animals is to eat and use, not to show off. Otherwise, it is disrespect to life and blasphemy to humanity.
When you leave the head of an animal on the wall, you want to show others how good you are at killing animals and how powerful you are. My wife and I don't need to put any head on the wall, but where we are standing, who dares to say that we are not powerful? "
"Yes, yes, I don't want the deer head. That thing takes up space. Thousands of people have died in the hands of my brother and sister, but the paintings on the wall of my brother and sister's house are mountains and rivers. When you show your courage by using other animals' bodies, it is because you are not confident enough."
Xiao Nan stood over with a gun and watched the deerskin. His words supported her brother. Although she already knew that her brother was not her biological brother, she didn't understand the difference between a biological brother and a biological brother. Moreover, she had forgotten the things when she was younger, but she always remembered when Xiaobei gave her candy.
So every time someone questioned her brother, she opposed it.
Duo Duo Duo Duo was speechless for a while. There were indeed several heads of beasts in his original home. There were bear heads, tiger heads, and many wolf teeth. He even had a chain of bear teeth around his neck.
Just like what Xiao Nan said, he used these heads to show the power of his tribe. Later, he left with the Tang team, so it was not convenient to carry them. No matter how precious the heads of animals were, they were not as precious as a set of knives.
He put his hand on his neck and secretly exerted force. When he struggled again, his neck hurt, and the chain of bear teeth was pulled off by Duoduo. He used his wrist and threw it into the barley next to him. Only then did he feel relieved.
"What are we eating tonight?" Zhang Xiaobao asked when he was packing up the deerskin.
Xiaobei didn't need to be reminded to know that he was asking about them. He came over to look at the bloody deer and asked, "Didn't we arrive at the tribe's place at night? If I am not satisfied with their hospitality, I will … I will … If I had known earlier, I would have brought our guards. They can be used as training. They are very old, the oldest one is already 20 years old. "
Xiaobei wanted to say that his guards were not good enough to receive his people, but when he thought about it, he realized that he didn't have any guards that belonged to him. They were all his brother and sister's guards. His nine guards were still undergoing training, so he was very depressed.
