Chapter 251 Shoot early
"How's it going?" After learning of the invasion of the alien beasts, Liu Yu scolded the vile and shamelessness of the Wuji Pavilion while quickly running to the top of the city.
ran to the top of the city, but Liu Yu looked at the distance and was stunned. If you don't stand here, you will never know how terrifying and terrible this beast tide is, and from a distance, it is densely packed with all kinds of hideous and terrifying beasts, roaring and roaring wildly, and slowly moving towards the city wall with the momentum of Mount Tai.
With the arrival of the strange beast, these soldiers standing on the top of the city seemed to be a little suffocated, and Liu Yu could clearly feel their legs trembling. In the face of their kind, even the top masters, these soldiers may dare to fight. But in the face of these terrifying beasts, the fear in my heart exploded invisibly.
Perhaps when they first heard about the beast tide, coupled with the encouragement of their own commanders, these soldiers could still be full of confidence. But after truly seeing the horror of the beast tide, that sense of insignificance and fear will make them unable to even raise the courage to fight. Panic is spreading, and morale is crumbling.
The army of the Ming Dynasty brought by Liu Yu was better, this time in order to deal with the beast tide, the most elite army of the Ming Dynasty that had been trained for three years was brought over by Liu Yu. In the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, nothing has been seen. Although this little battle looked terrifying, it could not shake their minds.
But the armies of the other three dynasties are not good, half of them are miscellaneous armies, and they have no combat effectiveness, let alone expect them to have any achievements. In the face of the mighty army of alien beasts, if he didn't escape on the spot, he was already very worthy of Liu Yu.
If the first battle is not fought well, the morale of that army will be lost, and the army will collapse in an instant. If the first battle is off to a good start, the fear will slowly leave, and the morale and confidence will quickly return. This first battle is related to the morale of Liu Yu's million-strong army, and it must not be sloppy at all.
At the beginning, Liu Yu was startled by this terrifying formation, but after a closer look, he found out. Most of the strange beasts that swooped down on the front were beasts that couldn't be put on the table, and ordinary swords could kill them. Those advanced beasts shrank behind, waiting for these beasts in front of them to clear the way before rushing up.
The previous ones look hideous and terrifying, but they are actually cannon fodder, nothing at all. After taking a closer look, Liu Yu was full of confidence in the previous battles. With these cannon fodder, you can't even jump up the city wall, and you still want to win?
Dealing with the beast tide, the average soldier is inexperienced. This beast tide can only occur once in a few decades or only once in hundreds of years. The soldiers who participated in the battle, when the next beast tide came, these "veterans" were either dying or early like the earth.
Therefore, every time there is a vast army of millions of people, they are actually all recruits in the face of the beast tide, and they have no experience at all. At first glance, when I saw such a scene, I was not scared to pee, and it was considered to be determined. As for morale or something, I was so scared that my legs were weak, and I talked about morale.
In this case, over the years, Youzhou has not been ravaged by the beast tide a few times. In addition to the strong support from the top sects in Zhongzhou, there are many top masters, which may have something to do with the offensive strategy of this strange beast.
The higher-ups of the alien beast may not even know what it means to be in one go. It's just that the advanced beasts are not placed in the front, but hidden in the back, carefully preserving the superior forces. Let those ordinary beasts rush forward and drain the opponent's living strength. When the consumption is almost over, it's not too late to make a master on your side.
This strategy, at first glance, seems to be nothing, and it seems to be very clever. But in fact, as soon as the two sides came into contact and saw the overwhelming beasts underground, the legs of Youzhou were weak, and it was simply a battle defeat.
The alien beast also let the cannon fodder on the side, and the result was often that this first battle was easily blocked by a somewhat panicked opponent. The victory in the first battle slowly restored the morale and confidence of Youzhou's side. Even by this victory, the confidence stimulated by the excitement is greatly increased, and the morale is high. This is simply moving stones and shooting yourself in the foot!
Staring coldly at the roaring beast below after death, Liu Yu said softly to Liu Bowen next to him, "Liu Aiqing, the matter is urgent, you go and repair the formation immediately." I don't want to have a gap in our formation here before the real war comes? ”
"Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will do his best!" hurriedly bowed to Liu Yu, and then Liu Bowen immediately got off the city wall in a hurry, organized the formation mages in the city, and began to work day and night.
"Whew!" As soon as Liu Bowen walked on his front foot, a voice that looked like a wolf but not a wolf, and like a dragon groaned, came. With this voice, the army of alien beasts under the city wall also began to roar wildly. With the sound of roaring, the strange beast that was originally slow began to rush towards this place frantically.
The crazy actions of the strange beast were naturally clearly seen by the soldiers on the city wall. The soldiers, who were already very nervous, were frightened by the terrifying momentum of the strange beast, and they were completely panicked. A few soldiers even quietly shrunk back, ready to flee at any moment.
"What are you panicking about" Seeing the somewhat flustered city, Liu Yu immediately shouted loudly. "I'm all here, whatever you're afraid of, keep me steady, and prepare for the crossbowmen!"
Liu Yu's words were like fixing the gods of the sea, which made the originally flustered city head immediately calm down. After being here for so long, the soldiers here are also familiar with this emperor of the Ming Dynasty who often patrols the city.
The strange beast will attack the city immediately, and it is so dangerous above the city, and the emperor of the country is not afraid of danger standing here, what are they afraid of. With Liu Yu, the fearless emperor of a country, as an example, the soldiers above the city couldn't help but clench the weapons in their hands and silently returned to their original positions.
Looking at the strange beasts that were getting closer and closer, Liu Yu above the city roared nervously, "Crossbowmen prepare, release arrows!" ”
With Liu Yu's shout, thousands of arrows suddenly shot out above the city. A large number of bows and arrows, crossbow arrows, shot towards the strange beast. The powerful impact carried by the bow and crossbow arrows slowed down the frantic attack of the alien beast. The alien beasts that rushed to the front were either swept away by the crossbow arrows or nailed to the ground by the arrows.
A succession of arrows were released, and the strange beasts that came from the frantically onslaught came one after another under such a rain of arrows. As a result, a large number of alien beasts were shot. Even if these strange beasts rushed ahead, most of them were wild beasts, and they didn't have much wisdom, but the basic instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm was still there.
With the continuous rain of arrows, there are more and more corpses of strange beasts. The originally crazy beast behind it couldn't help but gradually stop and began to stop outside the rain of arrows. Then, with a loud roar, the beast immediately retreated frantically.
"Win!" The soldiers above the city couldn't believe that such a terrifying army of alien beasts had retreated after a few rounds of arrow rain. This is the hell Shura they imagined, it is clearly that the silver spear wax head is useless. The fear of the alien beast at the beginning was also swept away in such an easy victory.
"Good!" Liu Yu slapped the city head excitedly, obviously very satisfied with such a result. Unexpectedly, the alien beast just tried to test it, and immediately retreated. This battle is like a strange beast knowing that the army here is unstable, and it specially refreshes itself here.
On the side, Li Mu gently poked Liu Yu's arm, and said helplessly, "Your Majesty, the bow and arrow are early." The beast had just entered our range when His Majesty gave the order. It seems that the results are huge, but in fact, the lethality to them is very limited! ”
"Ahh Turning back from his excitement, Liu Yu looked at the achievements in the distance that made him proud. Most of the arrows shot from the top of the city accurately hit the alien beast group, but the other half fell in front of the alien beast group.
And those who were swept by the arrows, a small number died, but most of them struggled to their feet and fled backwards. Obviously, the strength of the arrows was not enough to completely kill these rough-skinned beasts.
Touched his head embarrassedly, how to say that he was also a person who had led the army, and he made such a mistake. In the face of a large number of foreign beast attacks, although Liu Yu was also calm on the surface, he was still a little nervous in his heart. The tension was too much, and the order to release the arrow seemed to have been released a little earlier. And it seems that the effect of this round of arrow rain is not too good. (To be continued.) )
