Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Jungle Kills and Lures the Enemy Deeper
Although they still had a day, Bai Ling told them to act immediately.
Bai Ling's first step was to let them cause losses without any action, so these soldiers and elves began to dig the pit.
Well, Bai Ling first thought of digging a pit, they chose a dense forest, where the soil was soft, and then hundreds of elves and the Xuan Ce army began to dig a pit. Each pit is one meter long and one meter wide, and the pits are separated by one meter from each other. Then there are dense sharpened wooden thorns in the pit.
After digging the pit, I found some branches and leaves to lay out, because there are more fallen leaves here than in other places, so there is no trap to see.
But this is not enough, Bai Ling has heard Ying Zihan tell the story of Zhuge Liang's burning of Xinye, so he has brought a lot of fuel from the elves. Then the fuel was sprinkled on the leaves in front of the pit, and then the dry fallen leaves were spread on it, and in order to cover up the smell, many carrion corpses were brought in...
The next day, more than twenty mercenary groups were ready, and this time they set off together, and they only used five hundred people as a unit, and then they were half a kilometer apart. And they are also divided into two echelons. So the 5,000 men were divided into the first five phalanxes and the last four phalanxes. And these four phalanxes are inserted in the gaps of the five phalanxes. Once one phalanx receives an attack, at least three phalanxes will quickly come back, and then the other teams will also arrive quickly.
The Muka Lion felt that his arrangement was very good, unless the elves sent a large army, otherwise the elves and those humans who attacked them before would be killed, and then he would attack many elven villages by himself... Muka Shi was very excited when he thought of this.
The domineering marching procession was invincible, the beasts took refuge, and the birds flew in flocks.
A few elven warriors hiding in the shadows watched all this secretly. Jodru is a very good elven warrior, and this time he leads the team to lure the enemy. Watching the mercenary advance step by step, his heart began to rise, fearing that the trap had been discovered or avoided. However, his worries seemed to be unnecessary, this was a trap dug by Bai Ling for Prince Shining to be drawn from the elven clan, and used to harass the enemy on the way of some mercenaries.
So an unlucky ghost accidentally fell into it, and Jodru heard only a scream and did not move. Then the surrounding mercenaries all made defensive postures, and only then a few people slowly walked over to check under the order. But the unlucky ghost is dead. So the mercenaries were cautious when they moved forward, for fear of falling into the trap.
Black Mao is the leader of this team, the leader of the Poisonous Spider Mercenary Group, and there are three small mercenary groups under his command. One of them asked, "Boss Black, do you want to tell the other teams about the trap?"
Hei Mao sneered: "It doesn't matter what they do, it's not our people who die anyway." These guys even came up with the Orion's method, which means that they dare not come to stop us, and they are afraid, so they speed up and destroy them. ”
Jodru saw that the mercenaries had become cautious, they had spotted and avoided several traps, so he gestured and began to act.
Watt and a few companions were looking for a trap, but suddenly they heard the sound of the sky breaking, and suddenly their hearts were secretly unpleasant, but it was too late. He looked at the arrow in his chest, and when he looked up, he saw only a few white figures fleeing into the distance, and then fell forever.
"Enemy attack," the survivors immediately shouted for help, and the mercenaries immediately chased after Jodru.
The person who was being chased naturally found all this, and Joddrew secretly said: The fish has taken the bait. Then the speed began to be controlled.
Kuro Mao is also worried about an ambush, so he informs his two friends while leading someone to chase him. Such a force is no longer afraid of ambushes, as for how can this fat meat be given to others. But what he didn't expect was that someone from the other mercenary groups under his command secretly spread the news.
The elves are fast, and the humans also have Scuds, so they are gradually catching up. Three of the elves said, "Go first, and we'll resist for a while." ”
Essien knew that there was no way out, although he couldn't bear it, but for the sake of the overall situation, he ordered: "If possible, surrender first, and we will rescue you in the ambush." ”
"Yes," the three elves agreed, but they didn't take it to heart, and they knew their fate when they were bait. But how could the noble Silver Moon Elves surrender. So after blocking the mercenary team, he committed suicide when he saw that they intended to capture him alive. They knew that if they were captured alive, they would become slaves of humans in the future, and any elf would be willing to die rather than agree.
Then the mercenary continued to pursue, and the black fur who came from behind did not regret seeing this scene, he imagined that the elves were not just caught after breaking through the elf gathering place.
Then every once in a while, a few elves would block the pursuers, and by the time they reached the periphery of the ambush, there was only one elf left, and he knew that he could not run any further, because there was a trap ahead.
Jodru sat on the oil-doped leaves, watching the approaching pursuers, knowing that his mission had been accomplished. But his partners died to cover himself, and he couldn't live alone. It's just that he has been half-surrounded, and he has been hit by an arrow in the leg, and the black fur saw that the elf who was already tired and couldn't run opened his mouth to persuade: "Surrender, as long as you name your gathering place, I will let you go." ”
Joudru didn't answer, he looked into the distance, and knew that it was the hiding place of his companions, who were about to come to accompany him. Joudru smiled, he remembered his wife and son. They were all moved to the rear, but he could not go back, and he remembered the humans who helped his tribe, and their slogan was to fight to the death, so he drew his bow and arrows and prepared to take a few people with him before dying.
Prince Twinkle's eyes were blurred when Jodru arrived alone, and he really wanted to order the archers to release their arrows, but was stopped by Bai Ling. As early as when Bai Ling implemented this plan, he proposed to retract all the military power. So he wanted to use his status as a prince to give the order, but was persuaded by Essien, "Don't let everyone's blood be shed in vain"
At this time, the two black-haired brothers also arrived, the leader of the gray wolf mercenary group, the black-hearted wolf, and the head of the sword tiger mercenary group, Huya, they saw the elf who wanted to resist but was shot into a hedgehog and asked, "How do we know the route when he is dead?"
The black hair laughed: "Hahaha, don't worry, of course I can do it..."
A rain of black arrows enveloped the mercenaries. At this time, the mercenaries gathered around to watch the excitement were miserable, the unlucky ones were shot to death, the lucky ones were blocked by the armor or slightly injured, and some avoided them. But these comparisons are actually a minority, and the sword rain was deliberately divided into two waves, just because they didn't want the mercenaries to have time to react, so the surviving mercenaries began to retreat. But soon the arrow feathers of the five hundred elves and the five hundred Xuan Ce army were thinned out, because they had shot all the arrow feathers. The mercenaries also began to organize counter-fires, so the elves and Bai Ling and others also suffered casualties.
It's just that there are not many archers in the mercenaries after all, so they began to organize people to break through, but they didn't think of the "bumpy road" ahead.
