1265 First attack on Wolf Valley
After weighing it, Yun Xiaohan still decided to keep watch for another night and go to Wolf Valley tomorrow.
Since the remaining time is very abundant, Yun Xiaohan basically lets the villagers eat during the eating time, and tries to feed the villagers as much as possible, so he doesn't care if the villagers reduce their combat effectiveness because they are too full.
The main reason for this is naturally to prepare for the decisive battle of the Wolf Valley on the fourth day, tomorrow is the last day of the mission after all, the Wolf Valley is far away, and I don't know how much time it will take to attack the Wolf Valley and even kill the Wolf King, and I don't know whether the process is smooth or not, after all, this is in the wild, there is no city fortifications to rely on, in case the battle situation is unfavorable, surrounded by a large group of wolves, the villagers have no chance to eat at all.
And those who are full of food now, even if they are hungry for a period of time tomorrow, they will not fall too much, and they can still ensure the combat effectiveness of the villagers, and there will be more room for time arrangement.
In addition, Yun Xiaohan felt that the night attack of the wolves on the third night would not be too difficult to deal with, after all, the number of villagers and the stone wall of Village 9 were here, and the wolf king would not appear, even if the combat effectiveness of the villagers decreased a little, it would not affect the overall situation, and the worst result would only be the death of dozens of villagers, which was completely acceptable to him.
What's more, he was very confident in his command level and Kutina's auxiliary magic skills, and the reduction in combat effectiveness caused by the villagers' oversatiety was relatively slight, and he was still sure that his casualties would be controlled at a low level, so that the negative impact would be even smaller.
After dark, a large group of wolves arrived as scheduled and began to attack the village, and now there is only one village left, and the scale of the night attack of the wolves on the third night has increased significantly.
During the battle, Yun Xiaohan found a key change, that is, the combat power of the wild wolves in this mission seemed to improve faster than the last mission.
This can be intuitively understood from the physical condition of wild wolves, the proportion of wild wolves who are so hungry that only skin and bones are left shows a significant downward trend, although not all of them are full, but most wild wolves have eaten at least once or twice.
Of course, this so-called faster ascension is compared to the third night of the last mission, and it is still inferior to the fourth night, and the reason why Yun Xiaohan was so surprised was mainly because this situation was contrary to his expectations.
In his opinion, he saved all the villages in this mission, the death toll of the villagers has also decreased a lot, and the corpses of the villagers that can be fed by the wild wolves have naturally decreased, so the hunger state of the wild wolves should be worse, not better.
But the current situation is just the opposite, Yun Xiaohan naturally feels strange, but this problem didn't bother Yun Xiaohan for long, and he quickly figured out the reason.
That's right, the villagers are less dead, but there are too many more dead wolves, because the villagers gather too fast, and the scale of the wolf pack night attack in this mission is larger than the last mission, and it is not a little bigger, but much larger.
The wolf corpses that died outside the village in the night battle were difficult for the villagers to fight, most of them were dragged away by the wolves, and some of the wolf corpses were even eaten on the spot by other wild wolves.
In this case, even if the wolves did not get many corpses of villagers, they did obtain far more wolf corpses than in the last mission, and the wolves that fed on their own kind when they were hungry naturally recovered faster.
Thinking about the reason, Yun Xiaohan put this problem behind him for the time being, and continued to concentrate on commanding the battle.
A few hours later, the night attack of the wolves on the third night was repulsed, and the death toll was quite low, with only 212 villagers killed, of which 82 were young and strong, because this defensive battle was relatively easy, Yun Xiaohan also took advantage of the gap between the battles to let the villagers take turns to eat a meal.
After cleaning up the battlefield, the equipment on Yun Xiaohan's body was basically changed to a blue suit, and then before the sky was completely bright, he took all the villagers out and marched towards Wolf Valley.
Yun Xiaohan didn't let the villagers drag the wolf corpse to march this time, and left all the wolf corpses he had obtained before in Village 9.
Not to mention how many wolf corpses have been seized one after another on this migration route, just guarding the three wolf night raids is an astonishing harvest, compared to the wolf corpses consumed by the villagers to eat undoubtedly only a small part of the total number of wolf corpses, and the number of remaining wolf corpses at this time is still quite large.
If this task is more than four days, then these wolf corpses will naturally be kept as food reserves, but now that Yun Xiaohan is going to the Wolf Valley to break the boat, this huge number of wolf corpses will naturally be very chicken.
Not to mention whether there is time and space to bury the pot to cook or even eat at that time, let's just say that the process of attacking the wolf valley will not be without wolf corpses, and if you want to eat and use local materials, there is no need to march with these wolf corpses.
However, there are also concerns, in the case of dumping the nest, these wolf corpses may be dragged in by wild wolves to eat.
Yun Xiaohan also thought about destroying these wolf corpses, but on the one hand, the task mechanism didn't seem to allow the destruction of corpses, so there was no way to give such an order; On the other hand, it is not necessarily a bad thing to leave a large number of wolf corpses in No. 9 Village, after all, they are all wild wolves, with similar physique and weight, and it takes two or three wild wolves to drag a wolf corpse, and they can only bite the teeth and walk, dragging the corpse is more inefficient than the villagers, and eating on the spot will also take time, if you can use these wolf corpses that are quite chicken ribs to drag a large group of wolves, the pressure on Yun Xiaohan to attack the wolf valley will undoubtedly be much less, and the benefits may outweigh the disadvantages.
Since the wolf corpse was not dragged, it only took about 4 and a half hours to complete the journey of about 7 hours before dragging the corpse, and Yun Xiaohan rushed to the vicinity of the wolf valley with a large army.
There is only one entrance to the Wolf Valley, and the closer you get to the Wolf Valley, the more wild wolves there are, so it is not difficult to find, but easy to find does not mean that it is easy to enter, in fact, after half an hour of fighting, the team has not been able to advance far, and the Wolf King has not even seen a shadow.
On the one hand, the reason why the advance was so inefficient was that Yun Xiaohan didn't want his side to suffer too many battle losses, so he was less aggressive when attacking, and was more based on defense, hoping to wear out some of the wild wolves first, and then launch a strong attack.
On the other hand, because the number of wild wolves in the Wolf Valley is far higher than Yun Xiaohan's expectations, killing a batch will come out a batch, giving people an endless illusion, and there are constantly wolves outside the Wolf Valley rushing over to join the siege of the villagers.
Although there were not as many wild wolves coming from outside the Wolf Valley as there were in the Wolf Valley, the attacks on the rear and flanks still greatly distracted Yun Xiaohan's attention, and forced him to transfer some of the young men back to the rear and flanks to assist in the defense, and the attack on the entrance of the Wolf Valley was a little less confident, and he even did not launch a strong attack for a long time.
