After forcing back the wolves, the two positions began to connect together, and counting the number of people, there were only one hundred and seventy people from the two hundred people at the time of departure, and nearly twenty people were lost in one wolf attack.

So far, they've only been on the road for a day.

"What is the situation, these wolves are so afraid of fire and gunfire, but they still do not retreat. ”

More than a dozen corpses of timber wolves had been left on the ground, and there were even wolves that had been crippled and crawling out of the wood, and the soldiers had refilled their guns.

Gordon frowned, saying that he couldn't understand at all, the fire and gunfire were a huge shock to these wolves who had never seen firearms, but the behavior was so abnormal.

"Tie fish oil and gunpowder together, push it out, quick!"

Gore commanded the soldiers to move, and Burton's expression was serious and somewhat heavy.

The soldiers had died so much in a day that he had no idea how many men were left when they found El Dorado, and whether they would be able to overwhelm the Spaniards in numbers and firepower.

"It's the wolf king, captain, there is a fierce wolf king in this jungle who can gather so many timber wolves, and they have been hungry for a day, and it is the most ferocious time. ”

Jon said that he recalled that when he was in the Amazon Valley, he was attacked by wolves, which were not so large, and finally retreated when more than half of the casualties were killed.

When these wolves in front of them are fighting, they all have a situation of eating, which is absolutely impossible under normal circumstances.

"Is there any way to deal with it? These timberwolves are still gathering more wolves and preparing to take this place in one fell swoop. ”

Burton said at this time, after the wolves rushed into battle, human melee combat could not be defeated at all, now is not the Middle Ages, soldiers no longer wear heavy armor, just flesh and blood, how to fight melee combat?

"Build a wall of fire, use fish oil and explosives, we must not let them rush over!"

Gordon looked at the somewhat flustered sailors behind him, and then ordered.

"Don't worry, everyone, it's just beasts, we can repel them. ”

Although he said that, Gordon secretly pulled Gore over and asked, "Can our fish oil and gunpowder last until dawn?"

"It's hard, it's still four hours until dawn, and in the jungle, the sun shines a little later. ”

"Then there's only one other way left. ”

"What's the solution?"

"Kill the Wolf King. ”

......

If the wolf king died, then no wolf would be able to gather so many wolves again, and without the wolf king's deterrence, these forest wolves would scatter and flee in gunpowder.

"Hawkeye!"

Gordon thought to himself and began to look into the dark jungle.

There were at least thirty wolves hiding in the jungle, and because of the shelter of tents and various obstacles, it was like climbing to heaven to find which one was the wolf king from these orange-red lights.

And with the rapid howl of the wolf, another squad of timberwolves has already arrived.

"Everyone, be vigilant!"

With the wolf howls in the entire mountain forest, the mental oppression of the soldiers reached the maximum, as if there were enemies on all sides.

Of course, this also means a precursor to the offensive.

It's all well and good to attack when the enemy isn't converging, but no soldier can fight the wolves in the dark.

Muskets were initially a little bit of a catch, but when the timberwolves retreated into the jungle, most of the bullets were ingested into the trees or dirt, and there was little gain.

A lot of gunpowder and fish oil were pushed out, and dismantled wood and tents formed a circle around it.

Two or three o'clock in the morning was supposed to be the coldest time, but almost every sailor was sweating and ready for battle.

"Woo ~ Woo woo ......"

A sharp and loud howl remembered that this was the order of the general attack.

The wolves rushed over from all directions, they grinned wide, and there were even shredded flesh on them, I don't know which corpse they devoured, in the dim firelight, the figures of the wolves could not be seen clearly at all, and the visual error caused by the error seemed to have at least doubled the number of wolves.

"First queue ready!"

The soldiers lined up under the order, and then crouched with muskets raised.

"Fire!"

Bang bang......

The dense gunfire reminds me that in this era of queuing to shoot, the best thing is that there are no shooting dead spots, and the soldiers' bullets cover every corner in front of them.

The charging wolves fell to the ground in response, and the corpses were arranged in a row, and in this round of gunfire, more than a dozen timberwolves fell.

The Timberwolves, who were halfway there, were severely frightened, and most of them frantically drilled back into the jungle, while those who did not flee also fell in the second round of fire.

Dense arrays of guns could not be rushed even by cavalry, and neither could these wolves.

The first victory drew cheers from many soldiers.

"These wolves are really no different from dogs when they run away, they can't rush away. ”

If the enemy is only at this level, there will be no surprises until dawn.

Wolves are nocturnal creatures, they are accustomed to the night, they hunt in the night, and after finding that they can't rush away, the wolves seem to be a little silent.

They have the simplest of IQ and hunting instincts, and for hard bones that cannot be gnawed down directly, they choose to wait, waiting for the moment when the enemy shows their flaws.

The silence of the wolves relieved the soldiers, and the dark jungle was without those green eyes, and they couldn't help but feel a lot more relaxed.

Only Gordon could see that the wolves were waiting there, not retreating at all.

"Keep on your guard, the wolves are not retreating!"

Of course, the soldiers did not let their guard down, he reminded, and they continued to stand by in battle, but how long could humans hold out?

The cold night wind gradually blew everyone in the jungle, the constant wolf howl in the forest was beating the nerves of the human beings every moment, the soldiers lit torches in the middle, bringing a little warmth, the expected attack did not come, if it wasn't for Gordon still being able to see, otherwise he would have thought that they were all gone.

It was already the darkest hour before dawn, and some soldiers were already unable to hold on, and they were napping with their spears, and even Gordon was already feeling sleepy, and his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier.

Gordon shook his head and forced Burton to speak, "This is a tired tactic, they want to drag us down." ”

"Of course I know Gordon, they are pinning all their hopes on this moment, but how can we not do it, if they don't attack again, the day will be dawn, and gunpowder and fish oil will help us survive this last time. ”

Burton was also forced to fight at this time, if nothing else, the final attack should be coming.
