Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Wolves Appear
Yang Yi and his entourage walked cautiously in the fog, and due to the limited visible vision, the walking distance would become much slower.
I don't know how long I walked, and suddenly a wolf roar aroused everyone's vigilance.
"It's not good to have wolves. Head Yang Lin was surprised.
"Everyone speed up and be ready to fight at any time. Yang Sen, after you came to the palace, the others protected the two wings. ”
"Lao Du, you stay in the middle of the truck, take care of our goods, and support everyone at any time. ”
"Everybody get in shape, pick up the pace, follow me, let's get out of here as soon as possible. ”
......
Yang Lin issued a series of instructions.
Yang Lin turned his head to look at Yang Yi and the four of them and ordered, "As for the four of you, stay in the middle of the team, and be ready to fight at any time." ”
As soon as Commander Yang Lin's words fell, everyone took out their weapons, set up a formation, kept watch around at all times, quickly pushed the truck, and quickly left the place with him.
Yang Yi was shocked to see that the people of the mercenary group reacted so quickly and had such a tacit understanding, and it was worthy of being a mercenary group that had been tempered from life and death for a long time.
Seeing such a heroic mercenary group, Yang Yi also had a throbbing in his heart, that is, he must form his own mercenary group in the future, and he must grow up with his teammates like them and temper life and death together.
Although Yang Yi was amazed by the tacit understanding and reaction speed of the mercenaries, the movements in his hands were not slow, and when everyone took out their weapons, Yang Yi and Xiang Haoyu also quickly took off the knives and guns behind their backs, and watched around with everyone.
Two days later, the wolves still hadn't appeared, but the howls were getting louder. Everyone's nerves have been tense for two days, and they are already quite tired, and they are busy on the road while being vigilant about their surroundings, which can be described as physically and mentally exhausted.
"Captain, I don't think we need to run, we may have been targeted by wolves, and if we continue like this, we will be dragged down by this group of beasts. At this time, Lao Du ran over and said.
Yang Lin also understood this truth before this, after so many days, not only did everyone not get rid of the tracking of the wolves, but the number of wolves also increased a lot. The wolves did not attack for a long time, obviously trying to drag down everyone's will and physical strength, and then crush everyone with one blow.
"Uncle Yang, I think we've fallen into a trap. The wolves don't want us to rest, they probably want to drag us down, and then start attacking so that they can win without much effort. Xiang Haoyu walked up and said his opinion.
Yang Yi also walked over at this moment and asked, "But the wolves have been chasing for two days in a row, aren't they tired?" ”
"You're wrong, wolves are swarms, there are many of them, and they only need a part of the pack to roar to scare us. The other part of the pack rests as a whole, and then the pack rotates repeatedly. ”
"But we're different, we really haven't rested, and I think we're all tired now. Do you think we can withstand their wheel battles with our current stamina? Xiang Haoyu explained as he looked at the depressed crowd.
"No way, wolves are not humans, how can they have such clever tactics. Is someone doing something wrong?" asked one of the mercenaries.
Xiang Haoyu looked at the fog around him that was gradually thickening and replied, "It is impossible for someone to control so many wolves, and even if there is, do you think he will wait so long." ”
"What's the reason for that?" Yang Yi interjected.
"Probably because the wolf pack has a wolf king with a fairly high IQ. Xiang Haoyu guessed with a solemn face.
"It's been two days, why haven't the wolves started attacking yet? Even if it is to bring us down, the goal should be achieved. The other mercenary asked.
"Maybe it's because the wolves think we're still resistant, or maybe they don't think we're strong enough to swallow us in one bite. I think the wolves are still gathering until they can completely engulf us before they attack. At this time, Yang Yi came out and replied.
"Hiss"
The mercenaries took a wild breath of cold air.
"Captain, I don't think we should sit idly by, we should continue on our way, the wolves are not capable of destroying us yet, we should hurry up and get rid of their tracking," another mercenary suggested.
"No, everyone is very tired now, even if they still have the physical strength to hurry, but it is too dangerous. In case we don't get rid of the wolves, we will be really dragged down by them and buried in their claws. "Xiang Haoyu decisively put an end to the mercenary's proposal.
The mercenary was furious when he saw Xiang Haoyu so decisively rejecting his proposal, "How do you know that we won't get rid of them. We have all been born and died for so many years, and we have not experienced anything, why did you, a fledgling little guy, make such a decision. ”
"You..." Xiang Haoyu was gagged by the mercenary's words.
"This big brother, have you thought about it, the wolves live in this fog all year round, and the environment here must be much more familiar than we are familiar with, and this advantage alone is enough to kill us. And the most important thing is that everyone's physical strength will definitely not be able to win them, after all, we are still escorting goods, and these goods alone have seriously affected our walking speed. And it's impossible for us to leave the goods and escape, if this is known by the mercenaries from the outside world, how will the mercenary group with the wind gain a foothold in the mercenary world in the future. At this time, Yang Yi stood up to calm the mercenary's anger.
The mercenary seemed to be persuaded by Yang Yi's words, and cried: "But, do we really want to sit here and wait for death?" ”
"No, don't worry, we'll get through it, after all, you've had a lot of similar experiences, so don't you survive it. Yang Yi encouraged.
Xiang Haoyu looked at him in surprise, he never expected that Yang Yi, who was usually wooden, would say this, this is really unbelievable, is this the so-called great wisdom and foolishness.
Yang Lin listened to everyone's conversation, hesitated for a while, and made up his mind to order: "I think what Yang Yi's little brothers said is good, we can't rush anymore." Everyone piled up the goods together, formed a circle, and divided them into three groups, one group of people rested from now on, and the other group continued to be on guard, and the rotation time was one hour. The last group of people joined me in digging pits, cutting down trees, and setting traps. ”
"Two little brothers, how long do you think it will take for the wolves to attack? Yang Lin looked at the busy crowd and walked up to the two of them and asked.
"In the middle of the night, when the fog is thick. Yang Yi and the two said in unison.
"Good, not bad. Yang Lin gave a thumbs up to the two of them.
"Lao Du, you take the two of you to cut down some trees, don't leave everyone's field of vision. Yang Lin instructed Lao Du, who was resting.
"Can the two children set traps?" Yang Lin looked at them expectantly.
"Absolutely. Yang Yi replied first.
A cold light shot out of Yang Lin's eyes, and he said, "Great, I'll find two experienced people to dig a pit and set a trap with you." ”
Afterwards, Yang Lin found two experienced mercenaries to set a trap nearby with Yang Yi and the others.
After several hours of hard work, simple defenses and traps were laid out. There are many sharp wooden thorns on the periphery of the fence, a circle of flammable grass not far away, and some wooden thorn traps on the periphery, which are about to burst and burn at a moment's notice. Up close, it looks like a small defensive fortress.
"Everyone hurry up and get ready for battle. Yang Lin looked at the completed facilities, and then looked at the sky, only to see that the sky was dark, the fog was thick, and it was estimated that it would not be long before the wolves would start to attack.
A quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour ... Everyone was slowly resting and waiting, and as the wolf roar continued to increase, everyone's hearts gradually became very nervous.
Yang Yi's heart was also very tense at this time, and he felt that time passed very slowly at this time, and he felt that it was slower than usual, I don't know how many times, after all, this was the first time he had faced such a big battle scene.
Half an hour later, the wolves finally couldn't bear it anymore and launched a general attack.
"Whew"
An even stronger, crisper wolf roar came out of the thick fog. Suddenly, everyone's whole body skin tightened together, and they all knew that the wolves were about to attack.
Yang Lin saw the wolves rushing out of the mist one after another, and said loudly: "Brothers, let's fight them off together, and let this group of beasts know the power of our mercenary group with the wind." ”
"Kill"
......
"Kill"
The people of the mercenary group gradually roared angrily at the wolves that pounced on them.
