The mountains and forests were a little quiet, and occasionally the sound of birds and beasts came. On the riverside of the expedition camp, there was a soldier outside the tent vigil. Because it had just rained, they could not find enough dry firewood to keep the lighting, and could only observe the surrounding situation by relying on the moonlight.

The long night made the sailors who were vigil unable to help dozing off.

"Roar..." A Caucasian dog lying in the tent let out a low roar, revealing its sharp teeth uneasily.

Another Caucasian dog woke up when he saw his companion wake up, and his ears erected, showing an uneasy growl.

"What's wrong?" Li Yizhu, who was curled up next to the two Caucasian dogs, was awakened by them.

"Woof, woof!" The two Caucasian dogs seemed to be frightened and barked wildly!

At this moment, the people in both tents were awakened by the barking of dogs.

The two extremely vigilant giant dogs barked wildly, which shows that there was a situation that made them feel extremely dangerous!

With a sneer, a sharp stone spear penetrated into the tent, which happened to be about ten centimeters in front of Cao Bianjiao. Although the darkness in the tent made it difficult for everyone to see, Cao Bianjiao, who had been through the battlefield for a long time, realized the danger and he passed by him!

"Enemy attack!" Cao Bianjiao reached out and grabbed the musket and waist knife beside him!

More stone spears pierced into the tent!

"Ah!" A man was stabbed by a stone spear and screamed in a shrill voice.

Almost everyone in the tent crawled out to the exit of the tent with weapons.

They stay in a dark tent, unable to distinguish between their enemies and their own people, and will only become the enemy's targets.

"Kerosene lamp..." Cao Bianjiao looked for the kerosene lamp in the tent, but when something urgent happened, he had no time to find a kerosene lamp that could be illuminated.

Bang! After the sailors who were vigilant reacted, they rushed to shoot at the natives who were attacking the camp with the moonlight!

The moonlight was sparse, and he could see dozens of figures holding spears breaking into the camp in the dark, and the spears stabbed towards the tent!

The sound of muskets shocked the natives holding spears, and some of them rushed towards the direction where the gunfire was just now.

"No!" The nervous night watch soldier just now did not shoot any of the natives. The natives were unaware of the fearlessness, and in a fierce manner, the bullets slipped down while loading paper-shell bullets.

At this time, the natives who broke into the camp were already very close to him! The muskets became less reliable under the close attack of the fearless natives!

The soldiers who were watching quickly touched the sword on their waists and fought with the natives in the dark.

"Ah!" The sound of fighting came from the camp. In the chaos, it was difficult to distinguish the enemy with the moonlight alone.

"According to my instructions, retreat with my voice, gather together, and don't be dispersed by them! Make a sound when fighting to avoid hurting your own people!" Cao Bianjiao used his sword to fight against the enemies in the dark, while shouting to let his partners gather.

Only they can understand their own language. When everyone gathers together, they can use muskets with confidence and boldness without worrying about shooting their own people in the darkness and chaos. As long as the dawn breaks, they can organize a counterattack.

What did the guards do? The indigenous people actually attacked the camp and realized it! Cao Bianjiao felt a little broken, but now is not the time to punish him. He wants to repel the indigenous people's offensive as soon as possible!

It is not easy to gather people who are fighting against the indigenous people. In the dark, they fight with iron tools and stone spears and stone axes, and it is difficult to escape, and stone arrows fly over.

The mineral experts who lack training held muskets and were in a hurry to shoot aimlessly.

"Wang!" The ferociousness of the two Caucasian dogs was almost close to the wild wolf. They were guarding Li Yizhu and pounced on the enemy besieging Li Yizhu.

Their sharp noses can tell the enemy and the enemy!

"Xiao Hei, Xiao Hui!" Li Yizhu held a musket in her hand, at a loss.

She could hear the barking of two Caucasian dogs and the screams of the enemy who was bitten by the Caucasian dog.

In the darkness, she did not dare to shoot, for fear that the musket would hit her teammates and two Caucasian dogs.

Li Yizhu heard Cao Bianjiao's instructions, and she retreated in the direction of Cao Bianjiao's voice.

"Ah!" Li Yizhu heard the sound of weapons stabbing her in the dark, and subconsciously pulled the musket.

A flash of fire!

Li Yizhu fell backwards to the ground because of the recoil of the musket, and a figure fell in front of her.

"Hu——" Li Yizhu shot at such a close distance for the first time, and it was also the first time she passed by the god of death, exhaling white breath in the cold dark night.

She thought that at this time, she should reload the bullets as soon as possible, otherwise the musket without bayonets would be just a wooden stick.

"Bullets...where are the bullets?!" Li Yizhu checked himself and suddenly remembered that he had put the twenty bullets he had received in the tent. He did not bring them out when he escaped from the tent just now!

Li Yizhu stood up in a hurry. The musket without bullets was really just a long stick!

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Cao Bianjiao's face turned pale. The other party was familiar with the forest, and obviously regarded them as invaders. He used the power of the entire tribe to encircle them. Just listening to the sounds and footsteps, Cao Bianjiao judged that the number of people on the other party might be more than a hundred.

If it was during the day, Cao Bianjiao believed that the sound of muskets could scare away these natives, but at night the other party had no idea that his companions were shot dead by terrible muskets. They just regarded Cao Bianjiao and others as enemies of other tribes to wipe out.

"Do we want to hide separately and wait until dawn to return here to meet?" a man shouted during the melee.

"Then let's aim here. When it's dawn, if you're still alive, you'll meet up with the boat!" Cao Bianjiao saw that everyone could not gather, so he had to break into pieces and retreat.

Among these people, Cao Bianjiao was not at ease with the two geological experts and Li Yizhu, who was a doctor. The other sailors were veterans from the Nanyang Fleet, and these three were all students who graduated from university. Their performance and psychological qualities in the battle cannot be compared with those of the veterans.

However, in the dark night, Cao Bianjiao found it difficult to meet the enemy while looking for these three people. The ones who fought with him were several natives holding stone spears. He used his own strength to deal with the enemy with the sword technique he learned on the battlefield!

It seems that everyone can only settle down and wait until dawn to gather people to counterattack. The helpless Cao Bianjiao tried his best to hold back the enemy and provide his teammates with the opportunity to escape first with his memories of the nearby terrain in his mind.
