Chapter 290 (1/2)
The distance from gaoshu tribe to monongahira, the seat of the Royal Court of the Cherokee people, is more than 400 kilometers in a straight line, and all the way is walking in the mountains, so it's still very hard.
Fortunately, this is the hinterland of the Cherokee controlled area, and there is no enemy - and no tribe that dares to let its soldiers go deep here, which is pure death.
Along the way, the biggest ”enemies” they faced were all kinds of wild animals in the mountains.
Naturally, top predators like wolves and bears don't need to say much. They even met mountain lions (cougars) and leopards (cougars) several times.
In later generations, it would be impossible to see pumas and leopards in the Appalachian Mountains, but in this era, this mountain is a paradise for pumas and leopards.
”Whoosh”, under the gaze of jorak Lulu, accompanied by a short and sharp sound, a huge black iron arrow flew over a distance of nearly 300 meters in an instant, and then stabbed into the neck of a mountain lion in the distance. The huge force brought the big guy weighing nearly 200 Jin to the ground, Then the sharp arrow in an instant penetrated the mountain lion's neck and nailed the big guy to the ground.
Not only jorak Lulu, but also the twenty soldiers who followed him.
They have never seen such a huge bow and arrow, and never thought that such a big bow and arrow could burst out with such power.
It's a distance of 400 steps. This big man can shoot a fierce and cunning mountain lion in such a long distance. If it's used to shoot people, no one can escape
Jorah krulu knew much more than those soldiers. He had known through the mouth of the Kerry emissary that the two chiefs of Yuchi people were shot and killed by a big man with a huge bow and arrow at a very long distance.
At first, Jorah krulu didn't believe what the Kerry emissary said. He was joking. Who could shoot people to death at a distance of more than 400 steps? What bow and arrow can have such a long range?
But today, after seeing the big black bow with his own eyes, he finally believed what the Kerry emissary said.
It turns out that there are people in this world who can shoot people or prey with bows and arrows at a distance of 400 steps.
Looking at the big black bow, not only Jorah krulu, but also the soldiers who followed felt their necks chilly.
After a while, the fast horse rode back and threw the dead lion on the ground.
”Guardian, this is a great arrow. This mountain lion's blood vessel has been shot through.”
The stone bear nodded with satisfaction, ”peel off the skin and leave the meat, and you can eat it!”
The soldiers responded with a bang.
Before, when they were hunting on the road, they used muskets to hunt. However, even if it is a musket, the effective range is only more than 200 steps, and some smaller animals, such as rabbits or pheasants, are usually broken after being hit by a musket.
And the range of the animal gun that is too far away is not enough.
If hunting with bows and arrows, the range of their bows and arrows is far less than that of the guardian's big bow.
