479. Beast Tide 4
Their combat effectiveness is not high, but it makes no sense to carry out this kind of task with high combat effectiveness, because they are going to the forest where the beast tide is erupting, and if they really encounter wild beasts, they will definitely not be able to defeat them alone, so they can only run.
"Doya, you take a few more archers to the southwest, clean up the beasts in that direction as soon as possible, you don't have to come back for the time being after the cleanup, and when Lyle comes back, bring me the news." This step was actually to ensure the safety of Lyle and several other people involved in the reconnaissance mission.
There are no beasts in the northwest direction, and some of them run in the direction of due north, and it is basically impossible to cross due west again.
But the southwest direction is not easy to say, this is the direction that is refreshing the beast, and it is also the position that is most likely to spread due west.
"I see." Just as Lyle didn't ask why Suyu asked him to go to the West to investigate, Doya didn't ask her why she arranged it this way.
Just like Su Yu trusted them, they also trusted their lord very much, they all knew that she must have her own meaning in doing this, since this was the case, there was no need to ask too much, anyway, what they should know, they would know sooner or later.
Just as Su Yu was arranging these things, the frontal main battlefield in front of him had already started.
Again, like the first wave of beasts, the blood of the beasts below is consumed from a distance, and when the blood is almost consumed, it is harvested by the hidden melee personnel.
The perfect plan executed in the last wave of beast tides is still perfect this time, if there is any fly in the ointment, that is, Su Yu found that the distribution ratio of the types of beasts below seems to have changed.
There are many types of beasts, in addition to the difference in size, some beasts have high attack and low defense, some beasts have high defense and low attack, and there are also double high beasts, but there are very few, and more can only be achieved at the elite level or even the boss level.
Most of the first wave of beasts were beasts with high attack and low defense, although they had high attack power, they were also easy to die, and the Sunset Territory was well prepared, which caused them to not even break the layer of defense outside the territory wall, and they were all wiped out before they even hit half of it.
But this time, the beasts seem to have learned wisely.
As if they had been prepared, they arranged for the beasts with extremely high defense to be in front, and for a while, everyone's attack range could only hit the rough and thick-skinned creatures like the wild boar and the giant bull.
The other beasts with high attack power took advantage of their attack on the 'meat shield' and quietly squeezed under the city wall, and then began to attack the city wall fiercely.
"Let's pay attention to the priority of cleaning up the beasts attacking the city wall, and the rough skin and thick flesh of the wild boar and bison will not be left alone for the time being." As soon as Su Yu discovered the problem, he immediately asked everyone to shift the target of the attack, avoiding the durable accelerated fall of the outer city wall.
"Also, have the melee team attack behind the beast, don't fight for a long time, just attract attention. After attracting attention, they all retreated, and after clearing the beasts under the walls, the ranged group increased their fire and attacked head-on. "This step is arranged mainly to divide the battlefield.
Although Su Yu can let everyone attack the beasts under the city wall first, the old problem is still there, that is, they still can't deal with those high-attack beasts that hide behind the meat shield beasts.
If you want to kill them, you have to get them out of the protective range of the meat shield.
Of course, in order to prevent the frontal beasts from counterattacking the melee group, which would cause them to withstand too many attacks, Su Yu also asked the ranged group to increase the firepower of the frontal attack, so that the beasts were attacked on their backs, and it was impossible to have the mind to care about the front and back sides at the same time.
After receiving the order, the ranged group on the city wall accelerated their attack, and they had to clear the beasts attacking the city wall as soon as possible, so that they could free up their hands to share the pressure of the beast attacks in the rear for the melee group.
At the same time, when the melee group hiding outside received the notice that they were going to attack around the rear, many people were a little apprehensive and hesitant in their hearts.
"This ...... Why did you suddenly let us attack from behind? Didn't we say before that we would wait until they finished harvesting? One person couldn't help but ask.
Although the others did not speak, their hearts were filled with similar questions.
In any battle, what they fear most is not the enemy, but the teammates who will push them out as cannon fodder.
After all, in their eyes now, attacking around the rear is undoubtedly a very dangerous operation.
"To be precise, you are not attacking directly, but you need to be responsible for diverting the attention of those beasts in the rear, and retreating in time if there is danger......" The person in charge of delivering the message is a person carefully selected by Su Yu after consulting with Lake, and his name is Bailey.
As a lord, Su Yu can't run around, she can only be responsible for giving orders in one place, so the person who conveys the order becomes very important.
The information on the city wall is simple, after all, this is within the territory, if someone makes a mistake and everyone fails to execute the order correctly, Su Yu can also find it as soon as possible and correct it in time.
But the melee group outside the territory is different, they are too far away, after Su Yu gives the order, if the person delivering the message mistransmits the message, or understands the wrong meaning, then it may have a huge impact in the process of the battle, causing immeasurable consequences.
These consequences can affect morale at least and directly lead to defeat in battle.
For example, right now, what Su Yu needs is not for the melee team to fight for their lives to kill the beasts in the rear, what she needs is for them to contain and attract the beasts in the rear.
These two have completely different meanings, so when issuing the order, Su Yu repeatedly emphasized it to the person who delivered the news.
And Bailey didn't live up to Suyu's hopes, and he passed the right information to the melee team.
"I see, I just said how can we directly confront the beast directly ......" The person who questioned it earlier touched his head embarrassedly, and the others looked away in embarrassment.
"Alright, stop talking nonsense, notify the people, let everyone pick up the guys and get ready to fight!"
Although they knew that their task was only to contain and seduce, everyone was still a little nervous.
However, after drinking a bottle of agility potion, everyone was much more energetic, because they all knew that their action speed would increase after their potions, so at least there would be no problem in saving their lives.
