Volume 2: The Loose World Chapter 166: Retest (Sixty-Eight) Destroy Taoyuan
The corpses of the three ability warriors were also put away, and the flesh and blood were full of qi and blood energy, which could be used to nourish the spirit plant, which was discovered by the tribe not long ago, and they hadn't paid attention to it before, but it was a waste of resources.
The ability of that mid-stage warrior is to make the plant grow quickly, and it does not help the combat power in any way, otherwise it will not be easily killed by the two, but it is the lucky star of the plant, and the nourishing effect on the spirit plant should be better.
It was not long before 7,500 warriors descended under the drawbridge, shieldmen, heavy infantry, grenadiers, archers, crossbowmen, spearmen, and axe men, all of whom had packed up their weapons and equipment.
The ox cavalry, horse cavalry, and deer cavalry had no mounts, and they also took weapons, leaving five hundred cavalry and five hundred logistics soldiers to defend at the drawbridge, and when they returned, they had to go out from here, and they could not be left alone.
At the same time, they are also reserve troops, responsible for treating and receiving the wounded, Mu Lang and Lin Wu also stayed, in case of danger, Mu Lang's history can be heard for hundreds of miles, Lin Wu controls the fog and can delay time.
The old witch also stayed, Lin Lin stayed to take care of him, there was no three-wolf chariot, and the bad old man was on the battlefield, so he could only be a burden, but he still couldn't rest assured, worried that the young man was frizzy and prone to danger.
In fact, the descendants of the tribe have long grown up, there are not a few who are proficient in the art of war, and their flexible minds abound, and they are no longer reckless primitives, so they don't need him to worry about it anymore.
Six thousand five hundred warriors, divided into five thousand warriors, formed a team of five thousand people, led by Mu You, Mu Yu, Lin Tuo, Lu Chief, and Lu Ze, five mid-term warriors, as the advance team to eliminate danger first.
Each team was equipped with a trumpeter, and when they encountered a difficulty that could not be solved, they blew the horn to call for help, and the remaining 1,500 men, and twelve special warriors, that is, reinforcements, followed behind them, and slowly advanced.
The others set up a position and pushed towards the outside of the jungle, and soon after they went deep into the jungle, they encountered an ambush from the Qing tribe, and their warriors hid in the dense forest and attacked from afar, wooden spears, stones, and ...... It rained down.
Smashing on the shield and armor, the sound of ping-pong sounded, the shield soldiers stood at the front, and the archers and crossbowmen crouched down, drew their bows and arrows, and waited for the enemy's weapons to run out and the attack gradually stopped.
The rain of arrows rushed out violently, shooting in the direction of the attack, and screams were constantly heard around them, and the enemy hiding in the shadows suffered heavy losses, and the sword and axe men and heavy infantry rushed out to contain the wounded enemy.
The team continued to advance, and after a few moments, it was attacked again...... After three days, the army had come out of the jungle and had defeated more than 500 men and captured more than 200 prisoners of war.
Hundreds of people were injured, dozens of people died, and the soldiers who were killed and injured were basically from the Lu tribe, they had no armor and shields, and there was no order and order in the battle.
It will only rush forward in chaos, it is easy to be ambushed, and losses are inevitable, the three teams of the Mu Hou Division, only a dozen people, were hit by rocks and wooden spears, and the armor offset a lot of damage, and it was no big problem.
The grass became denser and wider, the ranks became more dispersed, the enemy moved more freely, and the hidden dangers were higher, so Mu Yu sent someone to pass the order, and the five teams were outside the jungle, again divided into two teams.
It was divided into ten teams, each team of five hundred warriors, the original five ability warriors, each with a team, the remaining five teams, Flaming, Wood, and Meerkat, the three of them were stronger, and each led a team.
The two warriors of the Lu tribe, Shantu and Shanshi, also led a team each, and the remaining five ability warriors: Mu Liu, Mu Mang, Huo Yi, Mu Zhang, and Mu Yi, followed Mu Wu Mu Ling as reserve reinforcements.
In the dense jungle, there are constantly attacks by enemies, they are familiar with the terrain, they move quickly, their bodies are coated with colorful juice, and they are extremely hidden in the grass, and they are very slippery and slippery.
The warriors had to be wary not only of them, but also of the treacherous terrain around them, and there were many fierce beasts lurking in the bushes, several fierce beasts rushed out of the grass and rushed into the ranks to disrupt the formation, and the enemy also took the opportunity to attack.
There were also many warriors who were taken away, but on the contrary, they turned a blind eye to the Qing tribe warriors running around, and only attacked the fighters of the coalition army, and the speed of their advance was greatly slowed down, and the number of casualties also increased rapidly.
The ability warriors showed their skills, and the ability of the leader of the slump was huge, and his body was already tall, and after the ability was triggered, his size soared, reaching a height of nearly two meters, and he was as burly as a giant ape.
The defense and attack have increased by five times, the speed has also increased by two times, and the combat power has skyrocketed, rushing into the grass, wantonly destroying and venting, even the beasts dare not stop them, compared to him, they are all small guys.
Another mid-stage warrior of the Lu tribe, the ability is to control water, the combat power in the jungle is not obvious, and it is more shackled in the wasteland and desert, but when it comes to Daze and the sea, it is like a fish in water, and its strength far surpasses others.
Lin Tuo woodened the team, and the strength of the five hundred woodened warriors increased greatly, rushing into the grass and being unstoppable, the terrifying heat of the fire, the rigid green mist of the wood, and the high-speed escape of the meerkat were released in the grass.
Nearly a thousand iron and wood armies collided, like a herd of beasts violently crushed, and the lush and dense tall grass was directly razed to the ground, whether it was an enemy or a beast, all of them were crushed into the dirt.
The raging hurricane raged back and forth, and the tenacious and flourishing grass broke at the roots, and was crushed into a sky full of detritus, and the people and beasts in the middle were also torn apart by the fine wind knives, mixing with the grass clippings.
......
It took ten days for the army to break out of the grass and come to a flatter grassland, which was also grassy, and those over there could bury people, and this side could only bury their ankles, and the danger from nature was greatly reduced.
In the deeper grass, the army defeated more than 1,000 people lurking in the Qing tribe, gained more than 400 prisoners, and suffered more serious casualties, with more than 100 killed and more than 200 wounded in the Muhou alone.
On the side of the Lu tribe, more than 300 people were lost, and more than 500 people were injured, and when they saw the flat land that had become open, they finally breathed a long sigh of relief, but the danger from the Qing tribe was far from over.
A warrior had just walked a few steps, and suddenly stepped on the air and fell directly into the deep pit, and a sharp wooden spear was inserted at the bottom of the pit, which pierced the warrior's animal skin fiercely.
Fortunately, their craftsmanship is not high, there are obvious traces on the edge of the trap, and the army of the Mu Hou Department began to dismantle it in an orderly manner.
But at this time, the army of the Qing tribe arrived, and the remaining seven supernatural warriors, with more than 2,000 tribal warriors, stood on the high slopes of the mountain across the danger zone with deep pits, and threw them far away with wooden spears and stones.
Condescendingly, the range and power of wooden spears and rolling stones also increased a lot, and they even imitated the production of captured warrior weapons, made rudimentary spear throwers and slings, and put them into battle.
The two things are simple, there is not much technical content, the time is limited, the equipment is relatively simple, not durable, and the effect is much worse, but it can come in handy, greatly improving the attack power, but it is troublesome to use.
Only a few hundred nimble brains have found a trick and can be useful, and the tribal army is located in a low place, even if there are spear throwers and slings, they can't reach the range, and the standard repeater can't do it.
The bow and arrow still have a role, but the distance is too far, and the effect is limited, the green warrior on the top, holding a simple rattan shield, blocked the flying bow and arrow, and the tribal alliance can only raise a bronze heavy shield to resist the attack from the opposite side.
Seeing this, the morale of the Qing tribe soared and they let out bursts of cheers, but they underestimated the strength of the Mu Hou Department, and the equipment soldiers in the rear took out the parts in the box and began to quickly assemble the catapult and the giant ballista.
Two hours later, ten catapults and ten giant ballistae were all assembled, adjusted their directions, loaded their weapons, and fired at the green tribe on the slope, rolling boulders piercing through the air, and bronze spears were shooting.
Separated by a distance of nearly a mile, the two big killer weapons still showed terrifying power, the bronze spear easily pierced the rattan shield, and the warriors behind the rattan shield, and then the entire camp, were pierced by the spear.
The warriors of the Green Tribe stood too densely, and each bronze spear shot pierced through at least three people, and the spear was castrated, sweeping over the hill before shooting into the low grass behind and digging deep into the earth.
There are special warriors who want to block it, their eyes are fast, they reach out and hold the spear, but they are almost carried away by inertia, rubbed more than ten feet, and flew away, and even the later warriors died because of this, let alone them?
The attack power of the catapult is higher, every time a boulder falls, it can smash more than a dozen people, and the flesh and bone warrior will be smashed into meat sauce head-on, and a warrior with great power will reach out to intercept it.
As a result, he was directly blown away by the boulder, but the boulder stopped, but he flew out on the spot, his body was torn apart, covered with blood, flew more than a hundred zhang, smashed into the grass, and was half dead.
Ten catapults and ten giant ballistae, operating alternately, constantly attacking, the Qing tribe ran out of weapons, the rattan shield was torn like a curtain, the warriors suffered heavy losses, and the leader could only order a retreat.
In just a moment, the Qing tribe lost more than 300 people, more than 500 people were seriously wounded, and left behind the seriously wounded who had difficulty moving, and they wanted to take the feather arrows and bronze spears away, but the rolling stones came one after another one after another.
The tribal army wanted to pursue, but they were suffering from the trap in front of them, and when they watched the green warrior leave, they also pulled out a few bronze spears in the distance, and the soldiers of the Muhou Department could only be anxious, extremely annoyed but helpless.
Half a day later, the horde army cleared the trap, came to the high slope, recovered the scattered weapons, captured the wounded, examined the corpses, and in addition to them, even the two paranormal warriors fell in a pool of blood.
One was coincidentally pierced through the heart by a bronze spear, and there was no way to survive at all, and the other was hit by a boulder, covered in blood, and when the soldiers checked it, they found that he still had some breath, so they took him in.
The army of the Qing tribe has long been gone, and can only see the sparkling lake in the distance, the night is vast, it is not easy to hurry, the army is stationed on the slope, stretching tents, lighting bonfires, eating and resting.
The next day the army set out again, and proceeded cautiously, fearing that there would be traps, so they tested it with boulders and heavy logs, and the speed of their advance was not very fast, and after five days they crossed the meadow and came to the front of the lake.
The lake occupies a radius of 100 miles, and the island in the center can be seen in the distance, and there are dozens of acres of fertile land around the lake, with signs of slash-and-burn cultivation, as if it has just been ravaged by a beast, and the soil is flying everywhere.
There were also a few half-burned rafts in the open space on the edge, and it seemed that they had fled in a hurry on the rafts, harvesting the unripe crops, and burning the remaining ships, for fear that the enemy would follow.
Looking at the messy fields, looking at the burned raft, and looking at the seemingly calm lake, Mu Ling frowned, and saw a big fish full of sharp teeth, jumping out of the water, with a solemn face: "Please come!"
