Chapter 239: Vicious Wolf Pack
Hearing this, Li Hao's hair almost tightened.
Wolves!
This word is so unfamiliar to Li Hao, a traverser. He had even forgotten that during the Tang Dynasty, when humans did not interfere much with nature, it was not strange that there were wolves in the mountains.
There is a saying among hunters, it is better to stand on the tiger than to provoke the wolves.
Although the tiger is strong, but after all, it is a solitary animal, no matter how strong the individual strength is, it can find a way to defeat it, but the wolves do live in groups, they are orderly, and have a set of fighting systems that belong to the wolves, and the best army of mankind is also difficult to achieve.
Anyone who encounters a pack of hungry wolves in the wild will face a bitter battle.
Li Hao's face sank, and he silently pulled out the short knife from his waist.
The flames burned with the help of fuel. The firelight flickered, reflecting the shadows of the trees in the forest. Between the shadows that shook like ghostly hands, countless black shadows kept moving, and the predator of the formal forest - the wolf!
"Now that the flames are blazing, these beasts do not dare to attack at once, so everyone gathers together, so as not to let the hounds run away in fright. Once separated by wolves, they will be broken one by one! ”
Zhang Qi immediately gave an order, and the rest of the hunters immediately began to do things according to his instructions.
A few whistles echoed through the woods, and the hounds, scattered everywhere, immediately ran back and whined around their masters. More than a dozen hounds were holding their tails and seemed to be afraid.
Seeing the performance of these hounds, Zhang Qi's face became even more ugly: "The number of wolves this time is at least fifty!" Otherwise, the dog wouldn't be scared like this! ”
As he spoke, he took out the spare clothes and tore them up, made a few improvised torches and handed them to the crowd.
"As soon as the fight starts, light the torches immediately, these beasts are afraid of fire!"
As time passed, the fuel in the fire gradually burned out, and the flame gradually went out. As the light of the fire grew smaller, the wolves began to move forward.
One after another, ferocious wolves emerged from the woods and roared viciously at Li Hao and the others.
With a deafening wolf howl, the dozen or so hungry wolves that appeared first roared wildly and rushed up.
"Shoot the arrows!" Zhang Qi roared, immediately pulled his bow and set up an arrow, and shot an arrow at the hungry wolf that was rushing wildly.
I heard a miserable howl, and the hungry wolf at the head of the row was hit by an arrow and fell heavily to the ground. Zhang Qi was originally a sharpshooter with a hundred shots, and the angle of his arrow was very tricky, directly piercing the heart of the hungry wolf, killing him with one arrow!
The rest of the hunters also fired their arrows, and in a volley, the four hungry wolves lay on the ground. The wolves' frenzied offensive was finally slightly stopped.
Seeing this, the remaining hungry wolves immediately changed their tactics, taking advantage of the complex terrain around the camp, constantly shuttling between rocks and trees, and approaching the crowd in a roundabout way.
In this way, the threat of bows and arrows is instantly reduced.
Zhang Qi gritted his teeth, threw the bow and crossbow to the ground, and pulled out the short knife behind his back to prepare for hand-to-hand combat.
"Fourth uncle! You take eight dogs to guard the rear and hand it over to us head-on! "In a deep crisis, Zhang Qi still gave orders in the face of danger.
Fourth Uncle Orion immediately whistled and ran behind Li Hao and the others with eight dogs.
Wolves have clear tactics when fighting, and outflanking them is a common tactic.
"Roar!" With a roar, in the shadows, a hungry wolf jumped up, opened its bloody mouth and bit Zhang Qi's neck.
Li Hao was taken aback, the first wave of wolves attacking from the front was still at least ten meters away, and this wolf must have touched the area around the camp in advance. Are these beasts sperm? There will even be a feint!
Zhang Qi is obviously much more experienced than Li Hao, he seems to have expected this time, even if he is attacked by a sneak attack, he will not be shocked and calmly deal with it, only to see that he raised his foot and kicked the hungry wolf's waist and abdomen.
Kara let out a muffled thud, and the hungry wolf fell to the ground with a wail. Zhang Qi raised his hand and slashed at the wolf's neck.
The smell of wolf blood immediately permeated, adding a bit of horror to this night of slaughter.
More and more hungry wolves came out of the darkness and slaughtered the crowd, and the hounds immediately pounced on the hungry wolves, and the hunters roared angrily, and they picked up their short knives and fought with the wolves.
The light of the sword flickered, and the roar and wail echoed in the night sky.
"Don't pursue, maintain the formation, protect the owner!" After a fight, both the hunter and the hound were red-eyed. Only Zhang Qi kept calm and woke everyone up for the first time.
The center of the earth is so complex, once the pursuit is too deep and breaks away from the large team, there is a risk that the hungry wolf hiding will sneak attack and die. Li Hao is still in the crowd, and they must protect the gods of Lijiazhuang.
The battle didn't last long, and soon the first wave of hungry wolves was lying in a pool of blood. Li Hao's side suffered a lot of losses, a hunter's arm was bitten by a hungry wolf, and he couldn't lift it. The hounds also died five.
This is just the first wave of wolves!
This wave of attacks is just a temptation for the wolves, and the tentative attack is repulsed, and the next one should be a formal attack.
Zhang Qi's face was grim, and he said in a deep voice: "Owner, there are still many wolves, and we may not be able to withstand the next offensive." After a while, when the wolves rush over, you immediately run backwards, protected by the fourth uncle and eight hounds, you should be able to break through. ”
"You're telling me to leave you on the run?" Li Hao asked with a frown.
Zhang Qi smiled bitterly: "We people will die as soon as we die, but you can't have anything to do with the owner!" Didn't you say before you entered the mountain that everything is under my command? ”
"This exception!" Li Hao was stubborn by nature and rejected the suggestion to run for his life alone.
The villagers of Lijiazhuang are Li Hao's relatives in this era. In order to save his life and abandon his relatives, Li Hao said that he couldn't do anything.
Seeing Li Hao so stubborn, Zhang Qi was anxious, and was about to say something, but saw a black shadow rushing out from behind Li Hao.
"Be careful, owner!" Zhang Qi was taken aback, and subconsciously rushed towards Li Hao to pull him away.
Li Hao heard the evil wind whistling behind him, he had already guessed everything, he snorted disdainfully in his heart, turned around, raised his arm and slapped it out.
The power of the overlord exploded in an instant, and the mountain roared like a tsunami and hit the hungry wolf that was sneaking up.
There was a sound of broken muscles and bones, and the hungry wolf who was hit by Li Hao spat blood, flew upside down a distance of several feet, and crashed headlong into the tree.
The bones of his whole body were shattered, and he fell to the ground on his stomach.
Zhang Qi was stunned, he looked at Li Hao in horror, he couldn't imagine that the owner of the village, who was as elegant as a scholar on weekdays, had such god-like strength.
"Come back to your senses! The second wave of the wolf pack offensive is coming! Li Hao opened his mouth to remind, which brought Zhang Qichong's shocked mood back.
"Good...... Good! Zhang Qi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, beckoned the hunters to shrink their defenses, and gathered in front of the bonfire.
Soon, a wolf howl came from all directions, and in the dim sound, countless green ghost fires lit up. The real offensive of the wolves is coming!
It would be false to say that he was not afraid, after all, this was the first time Li Hao had faced a wild wolf, but a crazy sense of excitement poured out of his limbs, constantly stimulating his nerves.
The threat of death, Li Hao's fighting spirit that had been buried in his heart for more than 20 years, was awakened at this moment.
