313: Chapter 313 Enemy attack, enemy attack!

After drawing his bow to full capacity, Oasa Yaka released a whistling arrow.

"Whiz!"

As the whistling arrow was released, a sharp sound immediately rang out, cutting across the gathering place of the Dachao Tribe.

The warriors of the Dachao Tribe were alerted; they grabbed their stone axes and came out in groups of three to five with their bows and arrows.

It didn't take long for over a thousand warriors to be gathered.

Oasa Yaka looked at these warriors and nodded in satisfaction.

He sent someone to notify the warriors of the other tribes.

After a day of mobilization, Oasa Yaka had gathered five to six thousand people!

Looking at so many people, Oasa Yaka's heart was filled with confidence.

With so many men, he wondered how those people from the Great Qin Empire could possibly fight him!

"Big Brother!"

Dachao Jiro said, "Those Great Qin people are only three thousand strong. We have double their numbers. The advantage is ours; we are bound to win!"

"Indeed!"

Oasa Yaka nodded; he could already see the Great Qin people being beaten to a pulp by him.

"Set out!"

Oasa Yaka concentrated all the archers together.

They would fire feathered arrows from the front, and once all the arrows were spent, they would swarm forward together.

Oasa Yaka's tactics were quite simple.

Liu Zan was an Observer; he held a pair of binoculars, carefully observing the movements in the distance.

"Flutter, flutter, flutter!"

Muffled sounds echoed as a flock of birds took flight from the dense forest in the distance.

Liu Zan quickly raised his binoculars and looked in that direction.

As expected, he saw a large number of savages heading this way.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

Liu Zan said to the Messenger beside him.

The Messenger immediately held up signal flags and began signaling to the ground troops.

The ground Messengers had been constantly watching for signals from the Messenger on the Hot Air Balloon in the sky.

Upon seeing the flags being waved by the other party, he immediately signaled back in acknowledgment.

He trotted all the way to Xu Ning's side, bowed, and said, "General, the Dachao Tribe is coming to attack us!"

"Give the order."

Xu Ning said, "Have the Artillerymen get ready."

"Understood!"

The Messenger replied.

He went to a high point and signaled with flags toward the artillery unit.

After receiving the order to prepare for attack, the artillery unit's Messenger immediately signaled back in acknowledgment.

The artillery unit immediately began searching for advantageous terrain to set up the mortars.

Xu Ning sneered; over a hundred mortars would be more than enough for these savages to handle.

Xu Ning intentionally looked for a flat area for the decisive battle, as this would allow the mortars to exert their maximum lethality.

He ordered the troops to halt and wait for the people of the Dachao Tribe to arrive.

"Prepare for battle!"

As the vanguard, Oasa Yaka shouted loudly upon seeing the neatly lined-up Qin Army.

The archers all drew their bows and notched their arrows.

The Great Qin Empire's artillery loaders were also adjusting the muzzles of their cannons.

"Baka!"

Dachao Saburo stepped forward alone, stopping when he was two hundred paces away from the Qin Army.

He pointed at the Qin Army and cursed, "Who has the guts to come and fight me!"

"General, let me go up and fight him."

Shimane Masao requested to join the battle.

"A duel between Generals?"

Xu Ning laughed.

"Messenger, give the order to the artillery to blast him for me!"

When the order reached the artillery unit, Zhuzi shouted, "Let me do it, nobody try to take this from me!"

The other Artillerymen remained silent, tacitly allowing Zhuzi to fire the shot.

This was because Zhuzi was no unknown nobody; during the campaign in the Southern Desert, he had used a mortar to take out the White Sheep King!
