Chapter Ninety-Seven: Sweeping the Qin Army
All this is so unconscionable! Without the remains of the corpses of soldiers, the war between man and man is to take the life of the other party instead of gnawing at the bones. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info but this battlefield doesn't even have bones left, it's incredible.
There are spider corpses and wreckage, and it is very likely that it is a desperate fight between spiders and humans, and it is obvious that humans have no ability to resist in the slightest.
The Qin army camp stationed at the border was attacked by spiders, and the unsuspecting Qin army retreated under the powerful attack of spiders. The spider gnawed at the dead humans to the bone. This is the only way to speculate at the moment.
The Qin army is good at fighting, fighting bravely, and fighting to the death is something that the princes and countries are afraid of. However, the Qin army was vulnerable in front of this army.
The Qin army built a defensive fire dragon on the border of the war, and the spiders were afraid of fire. But this is not a permanent solution, and when the fuel is burned out, it will be the time when the Qin army is destroyed.
Judging from the weapons and armor left behind, Jingyu saw one after another circle of fortifications and burning embers, and also saw the corpses of various spiders roasted in the fire, and the blood of armor and weapons showed that humans finally abandoned these positions, and it was obvious that spiders ravaged these resistance fortresses of humans.
The shock made Jingyu's heart infinitely cold, and the soles of her feet were like walking on thin ice, and she couldn't imagine the complex contradictions and even helpless feelings of these soldiers when they were doing these fortifications that she might know had no resistance.
She wasn't afraid to see any tragic resistance scenes, she couldn't bear to see the tragic scene of these Qin soldiers being torn apart and devoured after being breached by spiders, she felt that she had auditory hallucinations, she heard the tragic cries for help from hell and the sound of struggle when she was dying. She was so frightened that she didn't dare to take a step forward, she just wanted to find a safe place to hide; So many Qin soldiers were powerless against some spiders, and it would be even more tragic if she met it alone.
Wang Qian, this centurion, was just an ordinary character among the hundreds of centurions in this barracks, and these tens of thousands of people were missing.
Zipei walked alone in front, and the four of them followed fifty paces behind.
Xue Beilei, in the future, you will call me sister, Sister Pan'er; Don't scream from your mother, or you'll have to be fifty paces away from me; I had nothing to do with that person in the future.
Beilei just smiled bitterly, how these people are so complicated, it was originally a very simple matter.
Okay, Sister Pan'er. But you're a generation shorter than him.
After getting out of the hole, only Beilei accompanied Zipei, but Beilei actually slept on Zipei again.
I haven't seen a shadow of Wang Jian for so long, even if they chase after me, they have enough time to enter the cave; There is no news about Huang San and Yang Ying's group.
They waited for a while, and Jingyu easily found Pan'er and Zipei.
Something is wrong! The border enemy invaded, the Qin State suffered heavy casualties, and several cities have been abandoned, and Wang Jian and their life and death are unknown!
No, the Qin army is extremely fierce and invincible, they can't be defeated so badly!
The Qin army is extremely heroic, and that is to fight with people. But this time they were not fighting people, but animals, and the thing was so cruel that there were no bones left of the warriors they had killed!
Is it a wolf? Or a tiger? Or is it a leopard?
No. Wolves and tigers can still have bones, and this animal eats people, and there is not even a single bone residue left. It's horrible!
Zipei suddenly remembered the tropical man-eating ants, which were all over the mountains and fields, and there was not a single grass left in the places they passed.
Ant?
No! It's a man-eating spider, it only eats people, it doesn't eat grass, flowers and trees! I saw some black spider corpses on the way to the army's defeat.
I remember! Is it the black spider we saw in the grave?
Zipei only realized at this time that all this seemed to be an arrangement in the dark. The spiders must have crawled out of their graves and multiplied here to cause such a catastrophe.
In an environment with abundant food sources on the ground, the survival and fertility of spiders have been effectively improved, and now they are flooded.
By the time Zipei and the others arrived at the scene of the battle, the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Qin army had been besieged in Hangu Pass by the black oppressive spiders; Fortunately, Hangu Pass is a copper wall and iron wall, just take the pass of Hangu Pass as an example, it is a stone wall more than ten meters high, and next to it is also a high mountain and dangerous slope reinforced with stones, they can still resist one or two.
There is a relatively narrow passage in Hangu Pass, and there are cliffs on both sides of the passage, so even if Hangu Pass is breached, it will still face a more tragic fight.
At this time, the trees of Hanguguan were tall and dense, and this dense forest became their last support; Spiders are the most jealous of fire attacks, and this forest is the nemesis of spiders.
Zipei and his party of four hurriedly came to a dangerous slope two kilometers away from Hangu Pass, and saw a huge team of spiders in the distance, as well as groups of spiders rushing to the front line from all directions, they could no longer take even a small step forward, otherwise they would be discovered by the spider's keen sense of touch.
The spiders didn't seem to care about the emptiness behind them, and they didn't hoard any food, their food was the enemy in front of them. Because they multiply so fast, they have to keep attacking to compete for food and reduce their own numbers.
I saw a piece of black pressure in front of me, in the Hangu Pass and around the vicinity, a half-meter-high huge spider cluster gathered at the Hangu Pass Valley Pass, and in less than a moment, the corpses of the spiders at the pass had accumulated to nearly half the height of the stone wall.
The spider's attack never stopped, and the hungry spider did not need to be commanded at all, its keen sense of touch could detect the location of food; Black spiders grow extremely fast since they were freed from the dark place. The individual is also much taller and adaptable, and it is a meat grinder in its own right.
The spider lives under the sun, due to the limited source of poison, its poison sac is much smaller, its abdomen has thousands of small holes to spin silk, and the liquid spewed out will condense into viscous and tense spider silk when it encounters air; The bones of its body are unusually tough. Its two long tactile senses evolved into two sharp daggers. The tactile response is extremely agile, and after its tactile sense detects a signal, it can throw two daggers with sharp points and send a sudden blow to the prey's body, and after hitting the abdomen, it can spit out thousands of cocoon silks to wrap the prey, and then recover it as preserved food.
Of course, swords and spears can still deal with it, but its tentacles are much faster than human hands. Obviously, the strength of spiders is completely comparable to that of humans in the age of cold weapons. And spiders also have a great advantage, which humans will never reach. The spider has a very strong reproductive ability, after the female spider is inseminated, she can lay an egg once in half a month, she can lay 5,000 eggs at a time, she can hatch in half a month, and she can grow into it in another month. So for a large spider family, the loss of a part of their lives seems insignificant.
Looking at the non-stop war in Hangu Pass, the pressure on the soldiers is too great, and the pressure on the half-wall-high spider corpses is too great, as long as they reach the same height as the high wall, then their advantage will disappear completely. At that time, the huge spider team will drive straight in.
Slowly, a large amount of wood, burning wood was pushed out of the valley, and that wood burned along with the mass of spider corpses, lighting up half of the sky.
At this time, the spider curled up and did not dare to move forward, and its tentacles shrank and trembled.
After the wood was completely burned out, a large number of spiders did not wait for the fire to be completely extinguished, and launched a frantic attack.
Soon, the ashes below were completely covered by layers of spider corpses. A puff of smoke rose up, and in an instant, even that puff of smoke was obscured. The hungry spider fearlessly attacked the soldiers on the city walls.
The soldiers did not have much advantage, and from time to time there were screams of soldiers one by one, however, in this tragic offensive and defensive battle, the screams did not seem to have much deterrent effect on either side. Spiders have no consciousness of life and death at all, and humans are not afraid of life and death.
A rain of arrows quickly deprived a large number of spiders from behind them, with armor in front and soldiers with sharp spears behind them, harvesting life from behind them; The spider's defeat left a gap in time, and the soldiers rushed down the walls, trying to save some of the cocooned soldiers.
The soldiers did not want to see the bones of their comrades gone, which meant that the soul of the dead would be lost, so they tried their best to retrieve the corpse, and in doing so, it was undoubtedly a predator.
And in such a simple and understandable appeal for humanity, both sides left more corpses.
As a human being, death is not terrible, especially for the soldiers of the Qin State; And what is even more terrifying is to be a lonely soul and a wild ghost, never to be reborn. For spiders, there is even more fear of death, because there is no concept of life and death at all.
Soon, a pile of corpses as high as the wall was accumulated outside the stone wall, and the gap between the two was filled sooner, and the advantage of the protective wall disappeared abruptly, and the spider swarm rushed in all directions, and the soldiers on the wall were divided into groups one by one by the spiders, and both sides were trying their best to attack and counterattack.
The tragedy of these soldiers finally happened, and in front of these hungry spiders, not a single soldier left a single wreckage.
The soldier had long been numb to life and death, and his expression was very stiff, but he kept waving the sword in his hand, and the spear and bow and arrow returned fire. There is only a thin line between life and death.
Who will save these poor soldiers, and who will save these human beings on the verge of genocide?
