Beginning with the Ubume Bird

Chapter 767: Chapter 56: Fierce Battle (Part 2) Chapter 767: Chapter 56: Fierce Battle (Part 2) At this moment, the battle was raging fiercely, with the companies’ men and weapons being relatively superior, and their tactics even more advanced. They used long spears and tight formations of musketeers in coordination with the civilized tribes, and although the uncivilized tribes fought fearlessly, not even falling despite getting shot multiple times, they still kept losing ground under the relentless gunfire.

Sensing that the uncivilized tribes were losing, a horn sounded in the distance, and from the depths of the jungle emerged a pygmy elephant with blood-red eyes, knocking a member of the civilized tribe to the ground. Its foot crushed the man’s stomach, making him vomit blood endlessly, obviously not surviving. Immediately after, dozens of frenzied pygmy elephants charged out of the forest, while those from the uncivilized tribes lifted their heavily injured companions and retreated in small groups.

“They’re planning to run.”

Cha Xiaodao was able to discern this, and so naturally could the Treasure Ship King on the battlefield. He immediately ordered a pursuit. The companies had many hands, and the few dozen pygmy elephants only caused some disturbance but could not hinder the advance of the masses. Soon, everyone had penetrated the dense jungle, leaving behind only pools of blood, explosion craters from cannon fire, and the lifeless bodies of pygmy elephants killed by the chaotic spears and muskets.

The dense jungle became deep, quiet, and suddenly serene.

Cha Xiaodao looked towards Zheng Xiu, “Shall I go and scout around?”

“Why trouble Mr. Cha for such a matter?”
