Chapter 181: The Night Attack of the Undead
After seeing Princess An Yue inform those orcs, Li Yuanfang felt a little relieved, and then said goodbye to Mu Yue, he had to go back to guard it, so as not to have an accident.
When he returned to his position, he was relieved to see that there was no fighting.
If the skeleton army used this as a breakthrough, he would not be able to resist, but it was relatively remote, with a few hills, which were not suitable for cavalry charges, and it would take some time to get there.
These times can completely allow the orcs to react, send troops to intercept, and completely drag the skeleton cavalry army here.
Just in case, Li Yuanfang ordered his subordinates to hurry up and dig a few deep ditches, even if there was no danger to the skeleton cavalry army, they could disgust them and not let them rush so comfortably.
After doing this, he did not let his guard down, leading people to lurk to the front line, and staring at the place where the skeleton cavalry army might appear.
Time passed little by little, except for a lot of blue ghost fires in the distance, nothing unusual happened, and there was no sound at all.
The faint ghostly fire wore down the patience of all the people from time to time, and it was also unusually cold tonight, and the cold wind blew on the armor, invaded through the cracks, and stabbed the nerves.
The moon gradually emerged from the clouds and mist, shining on the earth, revealing one figure after another, and for how long it lasted, the moon was obscured a small part.
At the moment when the moon was completely obscured, the ground trembled, and stones rolled down from the high and fell low.
……
……
"The commander of the new 27th Regiment won't be playing tricks on us!" The head of the New Fourth Regiment next door to Li Yuanfang had been waiting for a long time and was a little impatient.
The position of the New Fourth Regiment was relatively remote, and Mu Yue also knew that Li Yuanfang had notified several regiments next door, so she did not send anyone over.
His dog-headed military advisor nodded and analyzed: "It's possible, after all, we didn't go to support them yesterday, maybe they hold a grudge and deliberately manipulate us." ”
"But I'd rather believe it than believe it, if you really play tricks on us, you can settle accounts afterwards!"
The commander of the New Fourth Regiment nodded, yawned, and replied lazily: "Then you guys stay here first, and I'll go to the rear to inspect the logistics!" ”
(Inspect logistics?) I'm afraid I'm going to be lazy! The dog-headed military master naturally didn't dare to say this, and quickly nodded.
After the commander of the New Fourth Regiment left with the guards, the kobold division handed over the task of vigil to his subordinates in the same way, and also went to "inspect the logistics".
Layer by layer, in the end, there was only one platoon left for the night vigil, and the company commander who was left behind was full of resentment, secretly cursed the damn logistics, and obediently kept vigil for the night.
After all, the soldiers were already exhausted after a day of fighting, and even if a company and most of them were dozing, only a few poor people were still keeping vigil.
They knew that there were still dark posts outside the position, and with those secret posts, the vigil was a matter of food and support, so they would not waste their energy to do it.
But outside the position, a faint smell of blood could be smelled, and the secret sentinel that was originally hidden in the darkness was also missing at this time.
Knowing that the ground was trembling, they woke up the company that was keeping vigil, and when they looked ahead, three or four thousand meters away, there was a black oppression.
Three or four thousand meters may take a while for an ordinary person to run through, but for an army of skeletons and undead, only one minute is enough.
By the time they turned to report, the army of skeleton undead had already crushed them, and the low earth walls on the road had been broken and dirt and stones were scattered all over the ground.
The crouching soldier behind the low earthen wall was trampled under the iron hooves of the skeleton warhorse, and without wailing, he was pierced through his body.
Countless skeleton cavalry rushed by, and the corpses on the ground were crushed into meat sauce, and they could no longer see their original appearance.
Although the New Fourth Regiment had resistance, it was to no avail, and under the iron hooves of the army of skeleton cavalry, they were doing everything in vain.
This time, the skeleton cavalry brought only destruction!
In just a few minutes, the New Fourth Regiment was completely wiped out, not a single one was left alive, and they did not rest in peace after they died.
When the army of skeleton cavalry left, another group of undead rushed into the gap, numbering about 100,000, all of them rotting corpses.
These carrion corpses saw the corpses all over the ground, and they wanted to see delicious food, and they shouted with excitement and scrambled.
The minced meat on the ground will all enter their stomachs, and the bones they spit out will soon become skeleton soldiers and join the army of the undead.
These more than 1,000 corpses must not dare to divide the corpse army, and after the scramble, they set their sights on the new 27th Regiment next door.
Li Yuanfang's face was a little ugly when he saw such a pair of carrion corpses, if it was an ordinary carrion corpse attacking, he didn't mind letting the carrion corpses come and go.
But among these carrion corpses, there are many carrion leaders, just their vanguard troops, among the five thousand carrion corpses, there are three thousand carrion leaders, and the rest of the carrion corpses are not the kind of low-level carrion corpses.
You don't have to guess to know that this must be an elite army of rotting corpses!
Li Yuanfang thought that he was lucky enough to escape the skeleton cavalry army, but he didn't expect that there would be an elite carrion behind him, and the place where he was was completely regarded as a breakthrough by the undead.
Fortunately, the remaining million undead, all of them are on the north and east sides, confusing the defenders of the defensive line, and if these million undead also follow, he will not have a chance to retreat.
Li Yuanfang didn't have the heart to fight hard for these 100,000 carrion elites, since the defense line had been broken, it was futile to stay here, it was better to retreat.
Staying in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, he still understands this truth.
He directly ordered the troops to retreat and get rid of the 100,000 carrion elites first, but it was not so easy to get rid of.
Ordinary people can run past ordinary carrion corpses, but they can't outrun the carrion elites at all, and escaping is meaningless for most troops.
Most of Li Yuanfang's troops were ordinary people, but he built transport vehicles in advance, which were originally used to transport supplies, and now they can be used better.
Let his subordinates quickly clean up the materials on the transport truck, no matter how important these are, they are not as important as their lives, and many soldiers are distressed when they look at it.
After cleaning up, Li Yuanfang asked Fang Xiaoxiao to send skeleton soldiers to block the carrion elite, and then retreated with all the people.
The five thousand carrion elites who had been killed didn't understand why their kind were blocking them, so they didn't force their way and were pulled away by a distance.
Until a five-meter-tall, foul-smelling carrion king with iron chains wrapped around his body, and a three-meter-long pig-killing knife in his hand, chased after him and looked at his stupid subordinates viciously.
Spit out a cloud of green slime at the skeletons who stood in their way, and the skeletons melted in an instant, revealing a clearing, and the rotting corpses chased after them again.
The Carrion King was surprised by the actions of these undead, it had been targeting the New Twenty-Seventh Regiment, but now it had changed its mind.
The first is because of the skeleton's strange behavior, and the second is because it hasn't encountered a human who can escape from under its own hands, and whatever the reason, it's enough to have a reason to catch up.
I saw that the Rotting Corpse King sent an army of 90,000 carrion elite resource skeleton cavalry, and the remaining 10,000 elites were taken by it and chased towards the new 27th Regiment......
