Chapter 131: Who the Hell Are You?
With a knife in his hand, he slashed the last fierce beast that rushed up the hillside to the ground, and Mu Yi dragged the blood-dripping green scale knife to scan the situation on the hillside.
Luckily, there didn't seem to be any deaths here, only a dozen people were injured by the beast's claws, but it wasn't a big problem, and the situation on the other side should be similar here.
Immediately looked at the defenders led by Liu Ting before the cave below, they had already killed several fierce beasts, and now they were besieging the remaining fierce beasts with all their might, Mu Yi believed that it would not take long for Liu Ting to be able to exterminate all those fierce beasts.
Therefore, Mu Yi did not delay any longer, and ordered a part of the defenders on the hillside to go down to reinforce Liu Ting, while he himself took all the archers and other defenders who were still able to fight along the valley at full speed to pursue the fleeing beasts.
As for the wounded soldiers, they were repatriated and escorted back to the camp, and it was about to get dark, and if they stayed here, they were likely to encounter other fierce beasts, and then they would have to sit and wait for death.
Until this time, although almost half of the fierce beasts had been killed in this siege, this was far from the record that Mu Yi expected.
Originally, in his plan, most of the fierce beasts should be exterminated here, instead of letting more than half of the fierce beasts flee down the valley to the Mirror Moon Lake like now, which would undoubtedly cause great pressure on the defenders who were ambushed in front of him.
The reason why this situation has occurred is entirely due to the fact that this group of fierce beasts did not kill the defenders regardless of life and death as Mu Yi guessed, but chose to retreat twice.
Mu Yi also had no way to deal with this, because he couldn't control the actions of this group of fierce beasts, so he could only use their habits to make the best possible arrangement.
Although he had also considered ambushing directly in front of the cave before, no one knew if there were other exits or dark holes in that cave, so Mu Yi had to wait for all the fierce beasts to leave the cave, and then cut off their retreat, and finally completely destroy them.
One of the drawbacks of this is that some beasts may escape the killing, but there is no way to do it, and there will always be accidents in anything.
In order to prevent the fierce beasts from rushing up to the sides of the valley again, Mu Yi also ambushed a lot of archers on both sides of the valley, and shot a few arrows from time to time, forcing these fierce beasts to retreat all the way down the valley until they reached the place where the trap was set in front.
Like a torrent of ash, the fierce beasts running desperately in the valley rushed forward without stopping for a moment, leaving the arrows that kept falling on both sides far behind.
The sky will soon be completely dark.
Mu Yi and the others only have this short period of time to completely end this siege.
Both sides of the valley were full of tall bushes and rocks, which seriously hindered Mu Yi's pursuit, although they had tried their best to catch up, they were still pulled farther and farther away by the fierce beasts below, as long as they ran a few more miles, they would be completely thrown away, and they would never see the slightest trace of the fierce beasts.
Seeing that they crossed the valley mouth in front of them, the fierce beasts in the valley stepped up their speed, and the wind swept towards it, as long as they crossed the valley mouth, it was the inside of the Mirror Moon Lake, and then everything would be over.
However, at this critical moment, two columns of figures suddenly stood up from the rock walls protruding from both sides of the valley mouth, and immediately after, the arm-thick crossbow rushed straight down from the top to the group of fierce beasts below with a loud whistling sound.
Immediately, more than a dozen fierce beasts fell to the ground, I have to say that the power of the crossbow is really amazing, as long as the fierce beasts below are shot, there is basically no chance to escape.
At this moment, the defenders led by Mu Yi in the rear also chased up, forming a front and rear attack with the defenders in ambush in front, and this time Mu Yi was confident that all the remaining fierce beasts would be surrounded and killed here.
After a rain of arrows, the fierce beasts below immediately became chaotic and fled in all directions.
Just as the second round of arrow rain was about to shoot out, completely blocking the way for the fierce beast to enter Jingyue Lake, Mu Yi's pupils shrank, and he didn't want to shout forward: "Archer!
With Mu Yi's order, the archers in front of him who were ready to attack could retract the long arrows that were about to be released.
No matter what happens in front of you, as long as the commander gives the order, all the soldiers must obey the order, otherwise they will be dealt with according to military regulations afterwards.
This time, the rain of arrows that should have completely blocked the retreat of the fierce beasts below did not shoot, so when all the fierce beasts found that there was no longer an obstacle ahead, they immediately rushed towards the mountain pass frantically.
At this time, the defenders who rushed down from both sides of the hillside were still a step too slow to close the encirclement in time, allowing most of the fierce beasts to rush through and disappear into the dark mountain forest ahead.
After killing the remaining beasts, Mu Yi walked towards the bottom of the valley with a blue face.
At this time, the defenders led by Liu Ting in the rear also caught up after solving all the fierce beasts in front of the cave.
Originally, he was going to completely surround the remaining fierce beasts with the defenders who were ambushing in front of him, but Liu Ting, who looked at the emptiness in front of him and saw no trace of a fierce beast, was very puzzled.
"What happened to Major General Mu, could it be that all the fierce beasts were killed?" Liu Tinghu came to Mu Yi suspiciously and asked.
"How could this happen, didn't you find them before?" Mu Yi ignored Liu Ting, and instead walked up to a major and asked.
The major was covered in blood, and his bright yellow armor was covered in blood.
"Major General, we only discovered them when we launched an attack. The major said calmly.
At this time, Leng Ruoxi, who was dressed in black, also walked down, glancing coldly at the bottom of the valley, but she didn't say anything.
Mu Yi didn't say anything, and walked directly to the still stunned figures below.
Just now, the defenders of the rain of arrows, who were originally cooperating with the archers, could completely cut off the only way for the mountain pass beasts to retreat, completely surround these beasts, and then slowly kill them.
But when the archers were about to release their arrows, Mu Yi suddenly noticed that several figures appeared in the mountain pass below.
Mu Yi didn't know where these people suddenly appeared, but they appeared at the mountain pass like that, and in front of them was the group of violent beasts.
At this time, if the archers released their arrows, all the fierce beasts below, including those few figures, would become live targets, and in the face of the rain of arrows, they had no way to avoid it.
Therefore, as long as the arrows are released, the warriors below can be said to be certain to die.
However, if they didn't release their arrows, then these fierce beasts would take the opportunity to escape from the mountain pass to Jingyue Lake, and they would never have a chance to completely exterminate this group of fierce beasts.
Therefore, Mu Yi had no choice.
"Tell me, who are you?" Mu Yi tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and looked directly at the martial artist in the middle.
