Chapter 200: Night Raid on the Camp
Night Raid!
Any army is on guard against this, and everyone knows that no matter how elite the troops are, their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced in the event of a night attack on the camp, and they will even collapse directly.
Unless this army does not need to rest, does not need to sleep, otherwise even the most elite soldiers, when they are sleeping in front of someone to kill, can only be blinded.
It is true that there is the elite of the elite who react and launch a counterattack at the moment of danger, but even if it is elite, it is an irrefutable fact that the combat effectiveness is greatly reduced in that state.
The Elven Expeditionary Force is not an elite force, and there are few recruits in the Expeditionary Force this time, especially the two legions of the Vanguard Force, all of which are veterans who have participated in at least two battles.
With the long life of the elves starting from 3,000 years, which of these elite warriors has never experienced war in middle age (between 800 and 1,800 years old)?
But even so, the sudden night attack still made many fighters quite confused.
Yes, it's confusing.
Because of the news from the reconnaissance scout team, the vanguard has repeatedly increased its vigilance. Originally, they had already touched the edge of the log oasis, but for safety, they also deliberately retreated thirty miles back to ensure that they would not appear in the other party's field of vision.
The two armies are divided into three parts, camped in a zigzag pattern, the third army of the state is the largest in number and the most elite, so it is in the forefront, and the first army of the tribal army is divided into two parts, located in the rear of the third army of the state, five miles behind, all three sides can look at each other from afar, watch and help each other, and once either side encounters danger, the other two sides have enough time to react.
Moreover, when the army was encamped, hundreds of scout squads were scattered out, constantly guarding all areas within fifty miles in all directions, and theoretically it was impossible for anyone to attack them at night.
But they were attacked.
The enemy appeared very suddenly, without any warning at all, and appeared in the three camps at the same time. caused a series of shocking outbursts.
Self-destructing puppet.
These demonic beings emerge directly from beneath the sand, and then quickly rush towards any target within their range, no matter what the target is, and explode directly upon encounter.
Even if the power of the bomb in this world has shrunk greatly, it will cause considerable damage in this completely defenseless situation, not to mention that Tang Dou has now tossed out a bomb that can disrupt the soul power, and the power against the soul cultivator is definitely doubled.
The attack that I didn't expect at all, the way I didn't think of at all, the night attack that had no task at all, and the tripartite battalion of the vanguard directly exploded.
What annoys the elven warriors even more is that they simply can't react to the attack, and the self-detonating golems don't give them a chance to fight back at all - or rather, their counterattack is useless.
When those brave elven warriors reacted quickly to block the way to the self-destructing puppets, they were faced with a direct and simple self-detonation.
Essentially, it's like a city without anti-aircraft artillery in the face of a high-altitude bomb, and you don't have any way to fight back except to dodge.
Self-destructing golems don't give a chance to fight back at all, and they are not afraid of any counterattack at all, they have only one mission, which is to blow themselves up, and pull them into hell with their targets and themselves.
The results of the explosives that the bombs that had been piled up day and night in Avalon showed their initial power at this moment, and the 30,000 self-detonation puppets were divided equally among the three battalions. A series of self-explosions have completely turned the three battalions upside down.
Of course, it is impossible to rely on 30,000 self-detonating puppets to kill more than 100,000 soldiers of the two legions of the vanguard army (more than 70,000 soldiers in one legion of the national army and more than 50,000 in one corps of the tribal army).
Even Tang Dou's explosive creature couldn't really blow up all the enemies with high-explosive materials - he thought to, but he didn't have that condition.
So after half an hour of self-detonation attacks, the elven warriors had just felt the explosion in their ears stop, and were still angrily looking for the attacker, when they suddenly heard an unusual rustling sound.
Then they looked down and saw swarms of crimson scorpions emerge from beneath the sand and begin to attack each of them.
"What is this? What the hell are these things? ”
"It's a sand scorpion, be careful that this is a sand scorpion, it's highly poisonous...... Yes! ”
Elven warriors have a long life and are well-informed, so they can even recognize the Sand Devouring Scorpion, which is not native to the Tianfeng Continent, but it is precisely because they recognize it that they are even more confused.
The Sand Devouring Scorpion is a specialty of the Sea Sand Desert of the Nine Screams Continent, and it is only available there, even if it is brought to Arsa by someone, it is impossible to survive.
Although this vicious little creature is not a demon beast, it has even more terrifying abilities than demon beasts.
Their poison has the ability to reduce soul power, and one or two are enough, and even a platinum-level demon beast will make a direct detour when they see it when they are in a group.
In the Thousand Souls Spirit Realm, all creatures with poison have a soul power suppression effect on their toxins, because poison without this effect is useless to soul cultivators and demon beasts.
But on the other hand, as long as it is a naturally poisonous guy, no one is easy to mess with.
The Sand Devouring Scorpion of the Sea Sand Desert is known as one of the three major evils, and is even known as the Sea of Death, because when these crimson and vicious creatures appear in droves, the Red Sea formed is a moving place of death.
The elven warriors had no idea how these vicious creatures that only appeared in the Sea Sand Desert had come to Arta, but they simply didn't have time to think about it.
The Sand Devourer Scorpion is extremely aggressive, especially when the surrounding environment is not very friendly to them. Now the three camps are filled with the scorching smoke left by the self-detonating puppets, and Arsa is not a place for the Sand Devourer Scorpion in the first place.
Taken together, these vicious creatures have been completely frenzied.
They frantically attack anything they come across, even if it's a corpse, a pile of weapons, a collapsed tent.
Xue asked, having gathered all of his three hundred men.
Their luck was not bad, because they were ostracized, and their location was the most remote place on the east side of the camp of the National Third Army. It can almost be said that ten steps are outside the camp.
This humiliating garrison has now become a lifesaver for them.
Whether it was a self-exploding puppet or a sand devouring scorpion, they all appeared from the center of the three camps, and by the time these dangerous guys reached the edge of the camp, it was no longer very popular.
Now the three big camps are all evacuated from the center to the outside level, but the big tent is in the middle, and it is the place where it is taken care of, so no one has succeeded in killing it so far.
And those troops on the periphery can only be killed hard, otherwise the commander of the legion will die, and even if they are not punished, they will be recorded on the pillar of shame forever.
Xue Wenwen didn't participate in the counterattack with his men, in fact, they didn't encounter any enemies except for a few self-detonation golems at first, and then a dozen or so sand devouring scorpions that had gone astray.
No, strictly speaking, they have enemies.
But there is only one.
A young girl.
A half-elf girl.
A girl wearing a red and white robe, blonde hair, and a blue and white sword in her hand.
Lin Xiao.
"Don't move, I don't want to fight you. In case you get hurt, the master will be very sad! Lin Xiao looked at Xue and asked.
In terms of strength, Lin Xiao was certainly not Xue Wendao's opponent, but the two obviously couldn't fight.
Xue asked to know Lin Xiao and knew that she was Tang Dou's disciple, and her relationship with her sister was like that of a mother and daughter.
What's more, Lin Xiao appeared here, which meant that there was Tang Dou's participation on the Arsa side, which made Xue Wendao know his sister's whereabouts at the same time, but also shocked by the teasing of fate.
Why did that bastard Tang Dou bring his sister to Arsa? And get involved in this war?
"How did you get here?" Xue asked, without drawing his Nasir Holy Sword.
He didn't have the idea of making a move with Lin Xiao.
"Master brought us here. You guys are so bad, if you hadn't bothered, in another half a year, Master would have unified the inner ring, and then everyone could be happy, and the bad guys would be eliminated. It's good now, as soon as you come, not to mention the death of so many innocent people, Master's reunification plan will also be delayed. Can't you kill the good deeds? Lin Xiao complained.
Xue asked and was shocked, only then did she know that Tang Dou had actually made such a big move: "Unified Inner Ring, are you sure you are not joking?" ”
"That's because you don't understand Master's abilities. Or do you not believe in the master? Lin Xiao grinned.
This girl has been following Tang Dou for a long time, and her mouth is long.
Xue asked was not good at words, but at this time, he was directly swallowed by the other party's words.
"I don't want to talk to you about these topics for the time being, now get out of the way, I'm going to save people!" Xue asked, although he didn't want to do anything with Lin Xiao, it didn't mean that he was going to stand here and watch the excitement. Although he was treated unfairly, those who were dying in droves were his compatriots. There's no way he's going to sit idly by.
"It's just a bunch of murderers, and dying is a punishment for them. It's not going to kill them all anyway, what are you worried about? Lin Xiao rolled his eyes.
This girl was deeply poisoned by Tang Dou, and now there is no normal three views.
Xue asked and waved his hand angrily, "What's wrong with them is not what we're talking about now." Get out of the way, I'm going to save people! ”
Lin Xiao tilted his head and looked at the other party: "How many people do you think you can save?" ”
"The point is not how many people I save, the point is whether I want to save people!" Xue asked with a straight face, "Lin Xiao, get out of the way, I don't want to do anything with you!" ”
"Hee-hee, okay, I'll get out of the way!" I thought that Lin Xiao might forcibly stop him, but he didn't know that the other party just smiled, and then let go.
Xue asked and was stunned for a moment, and then she was about to take someone to save people, but was stopped by Lin Xiao again: "Wait a minute, you can bring this thing with you, so that those sand devouring scorpions don't get close to you." But don't let people see it, otherwise your crime of colluding with the enemy will be decided, and you will not think about yourself, but also about your own subordinates! ”
Lin Xiao took out a handful of rattan-like things from his space pocket! The rattan smelled like it was there.
Xue asked and glanced at Lin Xiao deeply, let his three hundred subordinates step forward to take the rattan, and put one close to him, and then did not look back and went towards the center of the camp.
After they walked away, Lin Xiao sighed faintly.
At her side, Ellie came out through Avalon's passageway: "I really didn't expect him to come, Master guessed right!" Now are we going to tell the master? ”
"Well, the news will be passed back to the master. Master will not and will not allow such a thing to be hidden from the master! Lin Xiao nodded, paused for a moment, and then said, "By the way, you have to ask Elucie to be careful, don't hurt him and those three hundred people!" ”
Ellie nodded again and again: "Don't worry, no problem, anyway, our goal is not to wipe out these guys, and we can't do this, just toss them hard!" Then I'll go first! ”
It can be seen that after Lin Xiao, the butterfly girl also began to go down the evil path under the influence of Tang Dou.
"Okay, be careful!" Lin Xiao waved his hand, and then activated a certain rune equipment on his body, and the figure was already blurred in Ellie's vision.
The various rune equipment on the half-elf girl will arm her directly to the nail cover, don't look at this girl is now silver level nine, you can't take her if you change to a gold level nine.
After Lin Xiao disappeared, Ellie spread her wings, her body was shrouded in a layer of darkness, and then flew into the sky.
Tang Dou never favors one over the other, the things he gave to his three apprentices are all the same, but the three girls have their own strengths, so it is naturally impossible to hold the same equipment, Ellie is different from Lin Xiao, a direct combat faction, and what she is good at is support, so most of the things on her body are for assistance and defense.
At the same time, Xue Wendao had already entered the camp with three hundred royal guards, and the kind of rattan that Lin Xiao gave them really had a miraculous effect, and the sand devouring scorpions in a state of madness would not take the initiative to approach them.
Of course, if they take the initiative to attack, the Sand Devouring Scorpion will still fight back. But because there was no siege by the scorpion swarms that followed one after another, the three hundred royal guards were originally the elite of the elite, and the holy flame that erupted from the holy sword Nasir in Xue Dao's hand was amazingly lethal to the sand devouring scorpion, and the result really made the three of them kill a bloody way.
On the way, they met all the elven warriors who were besieged by the Sand Devouring Scorpion, but their main purpose was to rescue the legion commander in the center of the camp, so they did not stop and killed all the way to the center.
