Chapter 55: The Enemy Is Everywhere
At the last moment before the victory, the situation was suddenly turned upside down, and for many people it was even more difficult to accept than the sudden fall of the sky.
In the team, some people were at a loss, some were surprised, and some were at a loss.
After all, the tiger barbarians had experienced countless hunts, and they reacted the fastest, and they quickly organized their familiar formations, and shouted and killed the beasts that turned their heads and rushed at them. The order to retreat from the forest trail fell on deaf ears.
"Can't be returned!" Xu Yu also reacted in an instant, carrying the forest trail and roaring like an angry lion.
A few people around Lin Ji aimed their weapons at Xu Yu in an instant.
Lin Ji pointed to the herd of beasts that had turned around, and also shouted: "Can't stop it, you know that you can't stop it!" ”
As the finger of the forest trail pointed past, the flipped herd of beasts generally changed in response to the words of the forest trail. When the beasts that were about to hit the wall of fire in front of them turned around, they did not bypass the beasts behind them from the side, but rushed directly into them.
They had been blocked in the line for several days and were already irritable. Today, they were driven by the sound of drums for more than ten kilometers, and they were also full of fear and exhaustion, and now they were blocked by the wall of fire in front of them, and they finally went crazy.
Anything that gets in their way, of the same kind or otherwise, will not hesitate to crash into them, using their bodies in tons.
Collisions, hissing spread through the herd, and more beasts went berserk. The entire herd suddenly became an expanding powder keg.
"Even if we fail to hunt, how many people will we die? Now that we're stuck here, do you want all the elite of the Tiger Barbarians to die here? Lin Ji's voice was a few points higher than Xu Yu's.
But Xu Yu wasn't listening. He was almost stunned as he stared at the mad beasts in front of him.
After this beast was expelled, it was blocked again, and he participated in hunting many times, but it was the first time he had encountered it. It was also the first time he had seen a beast on such a large scale go berserk.
Under normal circumstances, if the Tiger Barbarians are well prepared, a few people can kill a mammoth, and the Barbarian Guards can even kill one by one.
But that was when the mammoth didn't go berserk.
At this time, while Xu Yu was watching, a group of tiger warriors who reacted extremely quickly rushed forward and took the lead in encountering these crazy beasts. Two large drums followed their pace, beating desperately in front of the mad beasts, hoping to divert them again.
As a result, the beasts were no longer afraid of the sound of the drums, and they pushed the horns or teeth of their heads, and screamed and rushed at the strongest warriors on the surface. With just one look, dozens of people were trampled into the dust by the rushing beasts.
A baby elephant also rolled a few times against a broken drum. It got up from the broken drum and continued to run, and the broken drum behind it was trampled to pieces by a huge beast's leg.
"What to do? What to do? Will you hunt and lose? Xu Yu fell into the frustration of defeat and became blind.
Lin Ji dragged him to a high place and slapped him in the face: "Do you understand?" You won't be able to kill a few of you if you hunt it down, but if your tribal warriors still rush forward now, they will die here! ”
"Is there a way you can get them to back away?" Lin Ji was shouting almost against Xu Yu's face.
At this time, there are still people in Ji Lin who don't listen to him, and it's impossible for the people of the tiger barbarians to listen to him. The only ones who can obediently withdraw in time are those who are vassal tribesmen. For them, being able to hunt is drudgery, and survival is naturally important at this time.
Lin Ji's slap woke Xu Yu up. Xu Yu was unwilling to glance at Lin Ji, took out a horn from the hem of his clothes, and whined.
As soon as the horn sounded, there were many horns around, and Lin Ji saw that the tiger warriors rushing towards the beast herd around him were rapidly shrinking their formation and dodging to a high place.
As the sound of bullhorns spread throughout the wasteland, the team that could have formed a line quickly moved out of the way.
Xu Yu threw the horns of the ox to the ground, his face was full of tears, and he was about to sit on the ground and wait for the beast to trample on it. Lin Ji and the others hurriedly dragged him to a small hill.
Under the hill, the beast herd had already spread wildly, and the beast herd, which was originally squeezed on a few square kilometers, had spread to more than ten kilometers around at this time, and it was still spreading.
Except for the places on fire in the west and north, where no wild beasts rushed to them, the east and south were full of wild beasts. Some of the beasts even rushed into frozen swamps and lakes, crushing the not-so-thick ice and falling into mud or water.
The beasts frightened more of them, and some of them rushed back, again in the direction of the line of fire. This allowed the entire nearby wasteland to continue to be a scene of wild beasts running around.
There were also quite a few wild beasts that were running around and adjusted their direction, and ran back to the southbound passage again, forming a rolling torrent and rushing south.
"It's over, it's over. There were only more than 100 women left on the defense line, and they couldn't stop them. The hunt was defeated again. Xu Yu's face was full of tears, and he looked quite sad.
"I hope they don't block it." Lin Ji said with some concern.
"Who set the fire? If you let me know......" Xu Yu said, and when he heard Lin Ji's words, he suddenly fell into panic: "No! They're going to stop them, we're going to ...... quickly."
Xu Yu said and was about to rush down the hill.
But he was held down by the forest tracks.
Because among the beasts that are spreading wildly, there are new changes.
It was a relatively neat herd of beasts, made up entirely of bighorn deer. As they run, the relatively neat boasting can be heard clearly in the boiling herd.
Lin Ji raised his glasses and looked over, and saw a deer head with or without horns. And among the deer's heads, figures dressed in animal skins shouted, waving stone tools and rising and falling behind the deer's heads.
"Swift deer!" Even without looking glasses, Xu Yu also recognized the identities of these people and gritted his teeth by naming their tribes.
He was still wondering who ran to the front and set the fire first, but he never expected that the deer that would never appear in previous years would appear at this time and slash them hard.
The enemy, sure enough, is pervasive!
"They? How could it be! Xu Yu couldn't understand how they knew about Human's hunting plan. Have they been waiting in the north?
"Swamp Man!" Lin Ji finally knew what he had overlooked: "They sent someone to pretend to be a swamp to spy on us. ”
At the time, he thought that these swamp people were just annoying bed bugs, but he never imagined that the people of the deer would actually detect by pretending to be swamp people. And he didn't even send out the top soldiers to inspect the battlefield!
Even until now, he hadn't thought of the spearhead at all!
It's not unjust to lose. Lin Ji couldn't tell what he was feeling in his heart. When he thought he was just driving away beasts, who would have thought of dealing with enemies?
In the midst of the herd, several groups of knights of the deer were quickly converging, and then formed two large cavalry formations, one group of warriors who had not had time to run up the hillside, and the other group of people bypassed the hills on this side of the forest track, and the wind generally killed to the south.
"Ahh They're going to attack and kill me! ”
As he spoke, he was about to run down the hill again. In the wilderness, other tiger warriors who discovered this situation also rushed down the hillside and chased back to the south.
Lin Ji held down Xu Yu again. This time, Xu Yu was not held down again, he took out the bronze machete, and almost slashed at Lin Ji: "What are you still stopping me from doing!" You want them to kill me?! ”
As soon as Lin Ji clapped his hands, the dunmu stone beak, the vermilion monkey and the yellow leopard immediately pounced on Xu Yu from behind and snatched his knife.
"Calm down! Can you catch up with them? As long as Hu Aman can hide behind the defensive line, it will be difficult for these people to hurt her. But do you know that if you chase you, everyone in the Tiger Barbarians will die here? Lin Ji yelled against Xu Yu's face again.
After going to the defense line for more than ten kilometers, everyone had already run a distance, and they didn't have much physical strength at this time. If you run back again, even if you can hold on to the defense line, you won't have much combat power left.
The biggest problem is that there is still a team of people left here. As long as they chase after them, the warriors of the Tiger Barbarians will be killed and wounded along the way.
