Volume 1 Prehistoric Wars Chapter 13 Bloodstained Purple River

The old side's gaze turned to the second battlefield, the south bank of the Zichuan River.

Although the terrain of Zichuan is far less easy to defend and difficult to attack than that of Sahong Canyon, the surface of Zichuan River is 3,000 meters wide, and the water surface is breathing, which is also a moat in this era.

It's just that in a certain section of the Zichuan River, the river surface is covered with clumps of hard boulders, and even if the Zichuan River is panting, it can't shake these boulders for half a minute, and can only flow down from the gap between the boulders into a waterfall with a big drop.

The huge rocks are scattered and look like there are no rules at all, but if you look closely, you will find that these boulders faintly form two stone bridges that are naturally more than 3,000 meters long.

Each stone bridge is passable, and according to a specific line, the maximum gap between the boulders on these two lines is no more than three meters, whether it is a lizard dog, an ancient wolf, or a Xuanhuang person, they all have the ability to jump over.

The height difference between the adjacent rocks varies, some are two or three meters apart, and some can walk through them with their feet, but in general, the south side is higher and the bridge deck is relatively wide, while the north side of the boulder is generally smaller, and the timid animals are often scared to the legs.

These two natural stone bridges turn the two banks into thoroughfares, and over the years, hundreds of millions of animals have walked over the bridges, but in bad weather, there are also unlucky ones who are swept away by the surging river.

But now, the Xuanhuang people have chosen them as battlefields.

Twenty thousand mystical people and eight thousand ancient wolves waited quietly south of this bridge.

The first rays of the sun sprinkled on their faces, and they were inexplicably happy that the sky was finally clear.

After a night of heavy rain, the river rose more than a meter, and many boulders have been covered by the river, which is very beneficial to the Xuanhuang people.

At this time, the battle in Sahong Canyon had ended, and the Xuanhuang people here did not know anything about the battle situation over there.

After all, communication is a big problem in this day and age.

Even if they knew, they couldn't take care of it, and an army of 300,000 lizards had already appeared on the northern horizon. The black pressure is like the dark clouds that pressed the earth before the rain last night.

The army was overwhelming, and even the most heroic races would have a bit of solemnity on their faces, but they still firmly shook the weapons in their hands, and some even touched the head of the ancient wolf standing beside them.

In normal times, these ancient wolves would definitely let out a low roar, thinking that this action was rude, but now, the ancient wolves felt the temperature above their heads, and they did not reject this feeling, but felt very comfortable.

Seeing the enemy, most of the lizard dogs are three points happy and seven points excited, the enemy is equal to food, this conversion formula every lizard dog will, kill the enemy, you can fill the stomach of a hungry day and a night, this is the reason why they are so happy and so excited.

There is no one left to organize their progress.

Nearly one-fifth of the Xuanhuang people stood on the bridge, and the remaining four-fifths served as support troops.

They gave up nearly 20% of the bridge, and these 20% were not unsafe to defend, but the river was too fierce and it was not easy to replenish the soldiers.

The first node of the first bridge on the left is a boulder less than five meters wide, and three hundred Xuanhuang people and one hundred ancient wolves are guarding the three boulders adjacent to the south of this boulder.

The three boulders surrounded the boulder, which was less than five meters wide, and whenever the lizard dog stepped on the boulder, it would be hit on three sides.

The hungry lizard dog wants to cross the bridge, and this boulder is the only way to pass.

The difficulty coefficient of the first node of the second stone bridge is even greater, the node connection is a large three small four boulders, the small boulder is in the south, the surface area is about 100 square meters, the large boulder light width is more than 20 meters, the length is more than 130 meters, and the area has reached more than 2,600 square meters.

The three small boulders were left by the Xuanhuang people to the lizard dogs to attack, and the lizard dogs could divide into three ways and attack on the big stones at the same time, but the area of these three small boulders directly limited the flow of the lizard dogs.

And not far behind the big boulder, there are two huge boulders with a large area as a strong backing.

The Xuanhuang people arranged more than 2,000 people and more than 600 ancient wolves on these three boulders, and they had only one purpose, to kill every lizard dog that attacked the boulder.

There are more than a dozen nodes like this on the two bridges, and the Xuanhuang people and the ancient wolves have long occupied the best position, and using this natural danger to consume the number of enemies is a problem that the Xuanhuang people have been thinking about for nearly twenty years.

Without much hesitation, the lizard dogs who came to Zichuan immediately sent two advance teams of five thousand.

According to the Lizard Dog Leader's thinking, these two teams will have no problem winning the first node.

After all, the number is there, even if you use your life to fill it, you should fill in the first node.

The vanguard who took the lead also knew that there was a chance that they would not return, but they still calmly stepped onto the stone bridge and rushed towards the opposite bank.

The boulders in the north are generally smaller, some are far away from the boulders and the boulders, and some have a big drop, and after several days of heavy rain, some of the boulders have been submerged in the turbid water.

In addition, not far from the east side of the second stone bridge, there is a waterfall with a drop of more than 10 meters, which is also the primary reason for the rapid flow of water here.

The 10,000 lizard dogs were divided into two paths, and the first way the lizard dogs were passing a boulder that was flooded by the river, when a huge wave was set off, and hundreds of lizard dogs stood unsteadily, and were swept into the Zichuan River by the huge waves.

When the second way lizard dog passed a boulder with a drop of nearly three meters from the previous rock, more than 50 lizard dogs probably did not jump up because they were hungry, and fell into the river, and then were sucked by the water around the waterfall, and after struggling, they still rolled into the waterfall.

The two groups of people and horses were constantly stretched and thinned by the terrain of the stone bridge, and many boulders could only pass a few lizard dogs at the same time, while those large boulders stood densely and waited, and once the boulders in front of them left a vacant space, they jumped over and continued to move forward.

Many unlucky ghosts were squeezed into the river by their companions because of their hasty jumping.

At a distance of nearly 600 meters, more than 4,000 of the 10,000 lizard dog pioneers were still standing on the shore, and there was no way to squeeze all of them onto the stone bridge.

The pace of progress is getting slower and slower, because the first node of the two stone bridges is not far ahead.

The second lizard dogs launched a temptation, they used a larger, higher ground boulder as a reinforcement center, and then, led by a few brave lizard dogs, divided into three paths, and launched a charge towards the boulder where the Xuanhuang people and ancient wolves stood.

They pushed their speed to the limit, and one dash soared into the air and landed towards the clearing reserved by the Xuanhuang.

Soon, they realized how terrifying the arrangement of the Xuanhuang people on this boulder was.

The first row is a Xuanhuang man holding a spear, the spear is specially made, this special is actually not very special, but it is about three meters longer than the spear usually used.

Speaking of which, the old side often envies these Xuanhuang people, with six arms, six arms to fight, it is indeed more advantageous than two arms, these spearmen in addition to holding this special spear in both hands, can also be equipped with four one-handed stone tools, once the lizard dog bullied close, the spear loses its effectiveness, their melee weapons can play a huge role.

And the Xuanhuang people have never been afraid of wild beasts pounced from the front, unless the opponent is more than four meters in size, the party that pounces on the death from the front is definitely not the Xuanhuang people.

The second row is the short spear throwers (the professional name was taken by the old man himself, and the writing of the Xuanhuang people has not yet been invented at this time), they are real long-range attacks, with a range of between ten and fifteen meters, and the enemy beyond twenty meters will not be able to penetrate the lizard dog's fur or scales even if they hit the vital point.

The reason why the range is so low is that the short spear is made in such a simple way, there is no special spear head, just sharpen the thin one, and a short spear is completed.

The throwing of this short spear is a technical job, because the weight of the spearhead is not enough, if the angle is not good enough, it is easy to float the spear.

The first two rows of Xuanhuang people did not stand in a dense battle formation, but left a five-foot-wide gap between the two pairs, and the ancient wolf could easily poke its head out of the gap.

In addition, once there are casualties, the Xuanhuang people behind them can also be replenished in time.

As soon as the first wave of lizard dogs landed on their front feet, they were stabbed in the belly with spears, and before they could feel pain, they were picked into the river by spears.

Naturally, such a lizard dog did not die, and after falling into the water, it struggled to swim towards the boulder.

The lizard dogs that landed in the west were fine, fluttering for a long time, and maybe they could return to a certain boulder, but the lizard dogs that landed in the east were not so lucky, and the gravitational pull of the waterfall did not give them a chance at all.

In addition, the short spear thrower will also choose to mend the knife at this time, often several short spears pierce over, the lizard dog sinks into the water, and a cloud of red mist spreads.

With the second way of the lizard dog to lead the charge, the first way of the lizard dogs is naturally not far behind, but their situation is the opposite of the second way, they can only attack all the way, and then suffer three blows from the front and the side front.

On the first node of the first road, the formation of the Xuanhuang people remains the same, it is still the spearmen who fight in the front, and the short spear throwers press the back, and the ancient wolves support at any time.

In the picture of the old side turning on the ten-fold time acceleration, this battle became extremely fast-paced, the lizard dog flew forward like bullets, and the defending Xuanhuang people and ancient wolves were like a hard shield, constantly bouncing bullets away.

Some lizard dogs are extremely brave, and after jumping into the enemy formation, they can also pounce on a few Xuanhuang people, but before they have time to judge the enemy under their claws, they are bitten by the roaring ancient wolf on the neck, and the surrounding Xuanhuang people will also pick up a stone axe or stone hammer, and hit its head for a moment, and some Xuanhuang people are extremely angry, and directly smash its head into flowers.

The river kept rolling eastward, and many lizard dogs fell into the river and were immediately swept away by the river, but between the two stone bridges at the first node, a layer of lizard dogs gradually floated, some dead, some still struggling.
