Chapter 650, Bait
The night is getting thicker, and dark clouds are covering.
It was a night with no moon in sight.
An elven scout took advantage of the darkness to sneak closer to the large camp outside the forest.
According to Iverson, their task was to disturb the rest of the enemy.
Wake up these intruders in the middle of the night and can't sleep peacefully.
As a result, soldiers who cannot get sleep will have their combat effectiveness reduced to a greater or lesser extent.
After getting close enough distance.
The elven scout cautiously pulled out a horn.
Just waiting to blow.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, under the night, only a soft sound was heard!
A sharp arrow that broke through the air had already pierced the throat of the elven scout!
"Ahem, heh......"
The horn came out of his hand, and the elven scout instinctively clutched his throat and fell to the ground.
His mouth opened a few times, and blood kept spilling from his mouth.
Until the gleam in his eyes quickly dissipated, he couldn't say a clear word.
After confirming that the other party has turned into a corpse.
A pair of green eyes lit up in the night.
A fox archer hiding in the shadows slowly appeared.
And at this moment, similar things are happening in several other directions of the camp.
The elven scouts were distracted by the torch-carrying patrols around the camp.
But who would have thought that those patrols were nothing more than bait exposed to the enemy's field of vision?
And the real patrol team is hidden in the night where you can't see your fingers......
There was no movement from the camp in the distance.
Iverson, who was in the rear, sank slightly.
He knew that nine times out of ten, the elven scouts sent out would go and never return.
The other party has long been guarding against him.
Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning, listening to the report of the fox scout, Luo Ji nodded calmly.
Obviously, I was mentally prepared.
The other side is currently at a disadvantage in terms of strength.
Waiting for his army to overwhelm the realm is undoubtedly a dead end.
So, before going head-to-head.
Something had to be done.
While maximizing the odds of winning, it is also about buying time.
Harassment operations after dark are undoubtedly one of the more effective means.
As for what's next.
Nine times out of ten, the other party's arrangement is in that forest.
With the absolute strength of this army in his hands, Luo Ji is fearless.
"Pass the order, and the whole army will enter a state of readiness!"
After signaling all the soldiers to be vigilant, Luo Ji's army began to steadily advance towards Green Forest City, deep in the forest.
The unrest along the way is doomed.
However, what Luo Ji didn't expect was that the general commanding the battle on the opposite side was unexpectedly calm.
Until halfway through the journey, there was no intention of doing anything.
Luo Ji didn't think that the other party would let go of this wave of opportunities to consume their troops.
Now this situation is probably draining their energy.
A person who maintains a state of high mental concentration is easily exhausted.
In other words, over time, it will naturally relax.
At this moment, as the captain of the escort team, Jie Zichuan, who was riding a horse and following Luo Ji, suddenly felt his eyelids jump.
Before he had time to react, a sharp arrow had already broken into his sight!
"Your Majesty, be careful!"
In the midst of the roar, Jie Zichuan kicked the horse's belly sharply.
The mount under his crotch sped forward for some distance with a cry of pain.
Between the lightning and flint, Jie Zichuan swung the war knife in his hand violently, and with one sword, he slashed the arrow that shot towards Luo Ji.
"Escort !!"
In the shouting, the guards who were startled hurriedly rushed up to protect Luo Ji in the center.
At this point, the original peace was completely broken.
The elven archers hiding in the woods on either side begin to fire their arrows like crazy!
The main forces, which had been attacked, fell into a brief panic.
On the contrary, it was Luo Ji who was almost hit by an arrow just now.
From beginning to end, his face did not change in the slightest.
It shows a spirit that is as immobile as a mountain.
"The shield array is deployed!!"
After taking a deep breath, Luo Ji roared and gave an order.
The large shield soldiers scattered throughout the army came up with large shields.
In a short period of time, two shield wall defense lines were formed on the left and right sides of the main army!
The sword and shield soldiers behind also raised their shields one after another and began to fill the vacancy.
The composition of the shield wall is undoubtedly a reassuring thing.
Elven archers are fierce.
But no matter how fierce the archers are, they can't break the shield.
Could they really have shot through his bronze shield as if they had opened it?
That kind of thing is obviously impossible.
"Leave them alone, they don't have enough troops and don't pose much threat to us, maintain the shield array, and advance directly towards Green Forest City!"
While shouting, Luo Ji showed a meaningful sneer.
How many soldiers are there on the other side, can he have any points in his heart?
Storm City, as a border city, is only that little force.
Greenwood City is behind Storm City, so it's impossible to have more troops than Storm City, right?
According to his estimates, the soldiers and horses of the two cities converged, and that was it.
Under this premise, how many elven archers can be divided to attack his military array?
Wasting time here dealing with the elven archers scattered all over the woods, instead landing on the opposite side.
Ignoring the harassment of those elven archers, he continued to advance directly in the direction of Greenwood City.
When the time came, the army pressed out of the city.
What threat can these archers who dare not leave the forest pose to them?
Luo Jina shouted loudly.
Following Iverson's instructions, the elven general who commanded this harassment operation undoubtedly had an ugly face.
Tactical play like this.
The most fearful thing is to encounter an opponent who you can't pose much of a threat to and at the same time doesn't bird you at all.
At this point, the position and situation of the party carrying out the harassment tactics will become very awkward.
"General, are we going to continue?"
Another arrow was fired, and then looking at the arrow he shot was bounced off by the bronze shield in the hand of a large shield soldier opposite, the elven archer asked with an embarrassed expression.
The five hundred shield soldiers and three thousand sword shield soldiers that Luo Ji brought over this time were simply cast into two copper walls and iron walls.
The gap in the strength of Chi Guoguo is here.
With hundreds of elven archers, where do they have the confidence to pose a threat to them?
The elven general's facial muscles twitched slightly when he heard this.
Then, I heard him take a deep breath and speak......
"Give me a step......
Unexpectedly, the words are not finished!
A cold arrow suddenly flew from behind.
It's too late, it's fast, it's just a headshot!
That elven general, I'm afraid he didn't figure it out until he died.
Why would a cold arrow come from behind him?
And as the ambush party, how did they be ambushed by the other party......
The update is sent, thank you for the monthly passes of 'Nine Years and January', 'Life is Hard to Say', and 'pxlgq'!
