Chapter 484 (2/2)

To charge, the Omaha, arapahos or Cheyenne have to charge in front. Although you are allies, aren't your allies used to block the front?

The black buffalo stood still, surrounded by the chiefs of the affiliated tribes and the top commanders of the three allies.

”Chief black buffalo, why did the Cherokees stop? Shall we take the opportunity to attack them? ” A man with a seven color headdress asked. Obviously, from this guy's headdress, we can see that he is also a chief. It's supposed to be the chief of a subordinate tribe of the osaqis.

The black buffalo took a look at this guy and shook his head slightly. ”We can't rush out, because that will cause the death of many of our soldiers. We've got the best terrain, we've got more fighters than the enemy, we just need to wait for the Cherokees here. They won't be our opponents in any case! ”

Although he rejected the chief's request, the black buffalo actually had some regrets. It seems that many people have the same idea as they just thought.

Just as the black buffalo said this, Kuaima was a little relieved about two kilometers in front of the Osage coalition.

What he was most worried about was that the enemy would launch a full charge when the first division was not firmly established.

Although the first division was not afraid of the whole enemy's charge, it was not the best situation for the first division to be quiet. The weapons of the first division need a good position to give full play to all their power.

Even just now, in order to prevent the Osage allied forces from charging, during the previous March, Kuaima specially placed all the catapults in the outer ring of the large forces, while the mortars were placed in the second layer.

Once the enemy really takes advantage of the unstable position of the first division to launch a charge, it will have to rely on a large number of grenades to carry out indiscriminate coverage bombing on the enemy.

Kuaima doesn't worry that the enemy will be able to rush through the area covered by the grenade. With a total of 900 grenades, let alone a mere 50000 people, even if there are twice as many people, they will definitely not be able to rush through the death zone between 500 meters and 200 meters.

But in that case, the tactics of persuading and deterring the enemy to reduce the number of casualties as much as possible will not be realized.

Others don't know. As the best brother of stone bear, Kuaima knows how much his boss attaches importance to population. Even if these people are enemies, his boss can't bear to kill them on a large scale.

Therefore, after seeing that the Osage coalition did not launch a charge at the first time, Kuaima was completely relieved.

Under the gaze of the Osage coalition of more than 50000 people, 10000 soldiers of the first division of the bear army began to build positions about two kilometers away from the enemy's front.

In fact, it's not very complicated to build positions. It's just to set out all arms according to the range of their weapons.

In front of the soldiers of the first division who have weapons with a range of at least 140 meters, there is no need to worry about the weapons of the Osage coalition which may have a range of only 180 meters.

When the officers and men of the first division were in position according to their respective commanders' orders, a huge open space flashed out in the center of the whole position.

This strange sight can be seen even by the black buffalo standing two kilometers away.

Why do these Cherokees have to make such a big space?

This is not only the question of the black buffalo, but also the question of all senior commanders of the Osage coalition
