312 Preparations

Xiong Yi's whole army was discovered by Liang En's scouts at the first time, although Xiong Yi tried hard to cut off the battlefield, but in the face of various large-scale sorties, it was impossible to hide from the world.

After receiving this information, a subsidy of more than 300 people was dispersed into more than a dozen squads under the leadership of several cultivators, and then began to block the enemy layer by layer on the road.

Of course, these natives also knew that they could not go head-to-head with the enemy, so they took full advantage of their familiarity with the terrain and used poisoned arrows, traps and even explosives to kill the enemy.

In particular, a large number of traps were laid out because of the effect of delaying the hospital, especially on the premise of obtaining good steel tools, and the efficiency of their traps was suddenly improved.

Since these natives come from different tribes, they use different traps, ranging from direct to immediate, fixed and disabled.

Squads often choose not to set traps where large enemy forces may pass, and when those traps force the enemy to stop, they suddenly release their arrows, and then run away.

Since they choose to release their arrows long after encountering a trap and attacking from anywhere around the team, it is difficult to be forewarned.

If Xiong Yi sent a large force to chase after them, the cultivators and binoculars they were equipped with in their team could help them detect the threat in advance and run to safety before the enemy arrived.

If the enemy sends small troops, they will try to divide the opponent's forces, and then concentrate their superior forces to eat the pursuers in a short time.

The damage of this small group was far beyond Xiong Yi's imagination, and in addition to the usual bows and traps, a gunpowder weapon they had never seen before caused huge casualties.

According to Xiong Yi, who survived and was seriously injured, they only saw a round disc, and then the disc emitted light and flames, and flew out a huge amount of steel balls.

These are special explosives made by Liang En in imitation of the Soviet MON-200 directional mines, using some supernatural items and adjusting them for some supernatural creatures in order to have the greatest effect on the target.

The result of this is that the cost skyrockets, and even if Liang En consciously controls the cost, the value of each of them is not less than that of a good-looking calf, so a team only prepares two or three.

However, in terms of the results of their use, the effect of these explosives is extremely impressive, each of them can kill an average of twenty or thirty enemies - Kumayi do not have serious injuries, they will traditionally kill the seriously injured and use them as food.

What's more, after being attacked by this explosive, the surrounding Xiongyi will be chaotic for a while, and it will take a long time to regroup and move on.

All in all, such a small elite force slowed down the speed of the wolf's operation by half: not only was it forced to stop after an attack, but sometimes even if there were no attackers, they had to send out manpower to search the surroundings.

"The situation on the battlefield now is as we expected." While the front line was repeatedly harassing the enemy, Liang En began to discuss with the commander in the city about the next move.

"So it will take 5~6 days for the enemy to reach us, and we can take this opportunity to prepare more defenses around us to ensure that we can kill the enemy as much as possible."

"Very good idea." Liang En nodded, then tapped to the map. "If there are no surprises, I think we should further deepen our fortifications."

According to the information coming from the front, the combat power of this group of Xiongyi is much stronger than their counterparts in the Old World. Probably because they have enough food and space, they are significantly stronger.

According to the elite team sent out to delay the enemy, this group of Xiong Yi has a thick layer of fat and very hard skin, and many times they think that explosives can kill enemies, but in fact, they only injure enemies.

While it is said that brutes on the march can be a drag on the march, greatly slowing down the march and depleting their supplies, it is a different story on the battlefield.

With Xiongyi's attitude and physique, they will not stop charging as long as they can still move, and if they are on the battlefield, they can rely on continuous sacrifice to break through layers of defense.

Therefore, according to Liang En's plan, they need to further strengthen the original defenses, set up more defenses against large monsters, and expand the defense range.

"Yes, we intend to dig more layers of trenches, along with more barbed wire and defensive stakes." An officer nodded, then pointed to the map.

"If we all work together, we will be able to complete this defense system before the other party arrives, after all, we have enough supplies now, and it will not be too difficult to build a defense facility."

"Ao Lei and I will help you." After glancing at Ao Lei next to him, Liang En promised the officer, "We will help you dig as many trenches as possible, but everyone will need to help you with the rest of the work." โ€

"This one is already good." The officers present all looked relieved, and the progress would be greatly enhanced if the transcendent joined at this time, but Liang En's status made it difficult for these officers to make their own requests.

So in the next few days, Liang En and the others began to strengthen their fortress with all their might, because of the help of extraordinary power, so they strengthened their defenses again in just a few days.

If anyone looks at the island now, they will see that the island has become a large death zone, with layers of defenses and artillery forming one killing trap after another.

Especially after realizing that the enemy may be stronger than he thought, Liang En pulled out his own troops at the bottom of the boxโ€”an elite force of 120 Lamp God Organization.

Of course, this unit is not prepared for frontal combat, or simply for frontal combat, but to participate in the war as a special technical branch.

With their help, Liang was able to operate an additional 20 guns, and after careful consideration, Liang prepared 20 rear-loading Frankie guns.

Compared with the ordinary front-loading guns used now, the defect of the rear-loading guns such as the Furlong machine is that there is some air leakage to a certain extent, resulting in a short range and not being able to fill too much gunpowder, which is obviously not advantageous in artillery battles.

However, this artillery also has advantages, at least it is much stronger than normal front-loading artillery in terms of burst rate of fire, especially when Liang En and they lack enough elite melee units in their hands to need this rapid-fire artillery very much.

According to their plan, these artillery pieces would be the last line of defense, relying on the high rate of fire to break up the enemy's attacking forces in the event of a massive enemy charge, reducing the intensity of the attack and preventing the vulnerable militia from being carried away in a wave during such a massive attack.

Finally, when Liang and the others had almost completed all their defenses, the army of the Wolf Yi also appeared on the eastern coast.

Unlike many monster armies, this one didn't rush up and attack directly, but instead set up camp and then built a variety of ships to cross the strait.
