Chapter 1461: Waiting for the Opportunity

Bosa naturally could not be saved, because his intestines were already rotting; the arrow had barbs, and after the arrow was forcibly pulled out of Bosa's stomach, Bosa's vitality faded away at a very fast speed.

As far as Huaxia's current medical level is concerned, if Bosa had come for treatment immediately after being shot yesterday, there might have been a five percent chance he could have survived, but now, it was one hundred percent certain he would die; it was just that Huaxia had made its own promise to treat him, only it did not manage to save him.

The herdsman who shot Bosa did not receive any punishment either, and in fact, if it weren't for him, it really would have been impossible to extract so much information from Bosa's mouth; now, one could roughly know what this Wulengebu was like and about how many people it might have.

It is just that one does not know if what Bosa said was the truth; if it really is like this, as long as Huaxia takes down the Wulengebu, it would be able to obtain an unimaginable amount of wealth, and that so-called Shenhu also sounds quite rich; if a city were built around there, wouldn't it be able to develop very quickly?

The unexpected surprise made the members of the Western Development Group have a little less worry, and it was not all bad news; they also never thought that Huaxia would be unable to defeat this Wulengebu.

It is just that for war, you also have to see if it is beneficial to you; as far as the current Huaxia is concerned, if it goes to fight alone, there should not be any tribe that can defeat Huaxia, even if it were the Xuanyuan Tribe or the Jiuli, Huaxia would be able to win.

But why would you fight, and what about the benefits?

Fighting the Shennong Clan was because of the population; the Shennong Clan was already on the verge of collapse, and as long as Huaxia intervened, it could obtain the Shennong Clan's massive population; now that the focus has shifted from population to territory, paying a small price to obtain the Xuanyuan Tribe's territory is, for Huaxia, a war that is entirely beneficial.

But for the Xuanyuan Tribe and the Jiuli, why would Huaxia fight them? Baifeng currently has no intention of unifying Heaven; continuing to expand without letting his own country first achieve general prosperity is not the most important thing.

Fighting them to a mutual destruction and then being unable to recover for decades, what is the point of that? Besides, the Jiuli are so far away, and being on good terms with each other is the most appropriate.

The Wulengebu is different; not only have they already become enemies with Huaxia, but they are also wealthy, encroaching on Huaxia's territory, and since they are an outside tribe, looking at it from all these aspects, there is no problem with Huaxia attacking them; attacking them has too many benefits for Huaxia, and Huaxia's development of the west will have to rely on the Wulengebu.

The savages of the Wulengebu did not know the disaster they were about to face and the completely different future, only seeing a grassland with lush water and Grass, and a patch of wooden buildings.

The savages had good eyesight, and after they saw the human buildings appear, they could not help but cheer loudly one by one: "Found it, found it!"

The Tribal Chief also followed his own expectations and found this place; now what they had to do was to have a good meal, rest, and then start a full-scale attack, relying on their numerical advantage to take them down.

According to the number and scale of the buildings, one could roughly judge how large this tribe was.

The Tribal Chief's boss was different from Bosa back then; there were still many buildings on that hilltop, and it was impossible for them all to be for the Leaders to live in; if that were the case, with so many Leaders, how many people would this tribe have?

But as they looked now, there were traces of human activity around, but they were not that obvious, and in the distance, one could not see any humans active at all; only near those buildings could some be seen, so this was a relatively wealthy but relatively small tribe, at most ten thousand people, and very likely only a few thousand.

Excluding women, children, and Slaves, how many combat-ready Soldiers could they have? They here were all Soldiers, having come out specifically to seize territory and plunder wealth, so dealing with them would still be simple.

The Tribal Chief, for the first time, let the Soldiers eat a little more, letting everyone have something to eat, because they would need to risk their lives next; if they saved that little bit of food now and did not let the Soldiers eat their fill, and then could not charge when it came time to fight, it would be too late to regret it then; the little bit eaten would be replenished immediately after taking down this Cannibal Tribe.

A small tribe being able to be this wealthy must have something to do with them eating people, because people count as large prey, and one person is enough for how many people to eat; and by eating people, the food saved is not that accumulated? This is the reason why the cannibal tribe is wealthy.

After a brief observation, he immediately had the Soldiers retreat, because they could not be discovered; if they were discovered, it would be hard to fight, and they might even run away.

The Western Development Group did not see the shadow of the Wulengebu, as their fields of vision just missed each other, but they all knew that savages from the Wulengebu might come over in these few days, so those responsible for guarding were still very attentive.

Currently, the adults remaining in the Western Development Group were only a little over a thousand, and nearly half were women, so facing the Wulengebu would definitely be very strenuous.

But there were enough Bombs here, and even women could easily throw the Bombs down; the Bombs were the way to defeat the enemy, and then there was this team of Soldiers, whose combat effectiveness had basically recovered after resting, and those minor injuries were mostly healed.

The cattle could also be used; although the Cavalry could be assembled, if the Wulengebu came at this time, the Western Development Group would have enough time to make defensive preparations before they entered the attack range.

Regarding the number of enemies of the Wulengebu, as well as their Weapons and all aspects, specific intelligence had long been obtained; at first, Bosa was unwilling to speak, but others were willing to speak, and after the Regimental Headquarters and Hun discussed it, they believed they were fully capable of holding the savages off below.

Wanting to wipe them all out was a bit impossible, as that would also cause Huaxia to suffer some relatively significant trauma, which was not worth it, so it was better to focus on defense.

Huaxia's support troops could arrive within these few days according to the timeline; it just depends on whether Huaxia will send them; under normal circumstances, they would send them; if they feel the danger is truly too great and they cannot hold, they would either temporarily abandon this place or quickly light the beacon fire to wait for support.

The herdsmen could all return within two days; if they could not hold out for two days relying on so many Bombs, that would become a joke; they knew the power of the Bombs better than anyone.
