Chapter 997: Confrontation
After a whole night of non-stop busyness, the passages through the mountains were finally opened one after another, and there were originally five secret passages in total, which was enough for the 1,800 people of the Wind Knife Clan to evacuate.
Next, everyone did not rest, took turns to fight, under the command of Ouyang Feng and Qiu Yi, a lot of simple mechanisms were arranged on the top of the cave in each passage, in fact, it was not a mechanism, that is, a lot of huge stones loaded with rope nets were placed on the top of the cave, while delaying the pursuit speed of the tarantula clan, and huge closed stone slabs were placed in some key positions to close the passage and trap the enemy.
Everyone worked together, and finally basically completed all the arrangements at noon, standing on the wall, Ouyang Feng and Qiu Yi were a little restless, because Wei Canglan and Nangong Tian had not returned yet. Time passed little by little, and the spies kept reporting the movements and distances of the Centaur Alliance and the Tarantula Clan, Ouyang Feng couldn't wait any longer, and said to Qiu Yi: "Don't wait for them, let's start preparing first." ”
Qiuyi said worriedly: "Just light the oil like that, is it possible?
Ouyang Feng sighed and said: "Mu Da and Mu Er haven't come back yet, they must have encountered something, they can't wait any longer, it's too late to wait, and if the oil is not enough, they will replace it with firewood." Qiuyi nodded and instructed the clansmen to start preparing.
The old steward of the Huafeng Chamber of Commerce came to the city wall with a group of guards, looking at the tired people, Ouyang Feng smiled faintly: "It's hard work, how are the preparations?"
The old steward nodded and said, "Fortunately, more than a dozen vents have been sealed with iron fences. Haven't the two adults come back yet?" Ouyang Feng shook his head slightly, looking at the sky in the distance, his heart full of worry. I don't know what happened to Wei Canglan and Nangong Tian. Didn't rush back within the agreed time.
The order of Autumn is given. The boy of the Wind Knife Clan was busy again, and a huge wooden barrel walked into the mine, pouring the whole barrel of fire oil in the designated position according to the requirements, and some teenagers got a large number of dead branches and trees from the nearby mountains and forests, and piled them up in every corner of the mine.
While everyone was busy, dozens of teenagers from the Wind Knife Zerg Clan fell from the sky, and they worked together to grasp a huge rope net. There were countless barrels in the net, and although they were exhausted, they couldn't hide the excited smiles on their faces.
Wei Canglan and Nangong Tian jumped off the backs of the two Wind Knife Zerg Clan teenagers, and greeted Ouyang Feng and Qiuyi who rushed over after hearing the news.
Without waiting for Ouyang Feng to ask, Wei Canglan explained: "There are too many things, and the road is delayed, but fortunately, it is not too late to come back." What's going on, is there any movement on the side of the Centaur Alliance?" Ouyang Feng smiled, to be honest, compared to others. Ouyang Feng was more concerned about Wei Canglan and Nangong Tian, and now the two of them returned safely. Ouyang Feng was overjoyed.
Qiu Yi commanded the clansmen to get half of the fire oil that had just been transported into the mine, and the remaining dozens of barrels were hidden in the city wall and several key locations according to Ouyang Feng's requirements, and for the sake of safety, more people were sent to find dry firewood nearby, spread it on the ground of the canyon, and almost covered the entire ground before it was over. After all this, the young men of the Wind Knife Zerg Clan were so tired that they were out of breath, and returned to their respective posts and defensive areas to rest, waiting for the arrival of the enemy and delivering a fatal blow to the enemy.
The Sentinel kept reporting on the movements of the Manchurian Alliance and the Tarantulas, and waited nervously for the next battle with no known outcome.
The tens of thousands of troops of the Centaur Alliance stopped about twenty miles away from the Flame Mine, and surrounded the Flame Mine with a combined encirclement, with a posture of intending to annihilate Ouyang Feng and the others, only a force of about five hundred people in the northwest did not stop, and they came towards the Flame Mine with the Tarantula Clan.
The sky was getting dark, and everyone standing on the city wall couldn't help but tremble a little when they looked at the tarantula insect clan slowly approaching like a black curtain in the distance, no way, this is not about courage, it is really the dense tarantula insect clan The visual impact of normal people is too strong, even if the mind is firm, it is impossible to be unmoved.
Silence, silence for a while, when the large tarantulas stopped thousands of kilometers away, Qiu Yi said to Ouyang Feng and the others beside him: "You better go to the mine first, your speed is too slow, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you in a while." ”
Ouyang Feng stiffened his neck and said, "What are you talking about?
Johnny smiled faintly and changed his tactful statement: "We already know the plan, but I'm worried that once the fight really starts, these little guys can't find a way out, you better go to the mine to help guide the way, after all, the solution is what you came up with, and you can remedy it at any time if there is an accident." ”
Ouyang Feng glanced at Johnny, nodded and said, "Well, I like to listen to this uncle's words, Mu Da, Mu Er, Tiger, let's go." After speaking, he patted Qiuyi and instructed: "It doesn't matter if you fail, you must live." Qiu Yi smiled slightly and nodded heavily, he felt Ouyang Feng's sincere concern.
Wei Canglan, Nangong Tian and Zhan Tianhu also said goodbye to Qiu Yi and the others, and followed Ouyang Feng down the city wall. At this time, there was a sound of horses' hooves, and then, a voice sounded: "I'm Alvin of the Centaur Alliance, who is responsible for you here, come out to speak, I want to know, why do you Wind Knife Zerg Clan violate the rules to participate in the battle between humans, aren't you afraid of the wrath of the gods?"
When someone came up, he first deducted a big hat to the Wind Knife Zerg, intending to use it to hit the other party's morale, but he miscalculated, he didn't expect the Zerg to eat his set at all.
Qiu Yi didn't want to talk nonsense with this nasty human, but under Johnny's guidance, he still opened his mouth to answer the accusations of humans, of course, the attitude and tone were not so friendly: "Fart, you fucking, mother, kidnapped my little sister, and said that we broke the rules, this kind of thing can only be said by you, you remember for me, if your Centaur Alliance doesn't give us a satisfactory explanation, our Wind Knife Clan will fight you to the death." ”
The humans under the city seemed to want to say something, but when those tarantula and insect tribes saw the sworn enemy of the wind knife and insect tribe, they couldn't hold back for a long time, and regardless of the previous agreement and the safety of those humans, they rushed over with a hula.
At this time, Ouyang Feng and the four of them walked down the city wall not far away, and heard a rumbling sound like a galloping horse behind them, and couldn't help but look back, and were stunned to find that the high city wall was like a void for those tarantulas and insects, and it didn't stop it at all, and a large pile of tarantulas poured up to the city, and Qiu Yi and others started a tragic and fierce battle without fear of death.
The cobwebs flew out, the sharp claws stabbed, and it was just a photo, and at least five or six people of the Wind Knife Zerg were bound by the cobwebs, lost the ability to resist, and were pierced by the swarming tarantulas, and fell in a pool of blood.
Qiu Yi and the others' counterattacks were equally sharp, in the face of the sacrifices of their clansmen and comrades-in-arms, they gradually got rid of their tension for the first time in such a formal battle, turned their fear into anger against the enemy, and constantly brandished their huge front knives to slash horizontally and vertically, bringing out a slip of blood, they were like a strong embankment, blocking the crazy enemy like a tide.
Ouyang Feng, Zhan Tianhu, Wei Canglan and Nangong Tian rushed towards the mine, and at the same time, they kept turning back and shouting loudly at Qiu Yi, who was killing on the front line: "Retreat, don't fight to the death, retreat, let them in." ”
The shouts of Ouyang Feng and the others were ruthlessly drowned in the huge shouting and killing, and Qiu Yi, who had already killed the red-eyed people, completely forgot about everything else, and only had killing in his mind, just wanting to kill the enemy in front of him and avenge the dead clansmen.
Ouyang Feng stopped, scolded fiercely, turned around and ran towards the city wall, Wei Canglan and Nangong Tian glanced at each other, took a deep breath and strode up, the two of them have not had this kind of bloody impulse for a long time, at this moment they no longer care so much, they just want to fight happily with Ouyang Feng.
Needless to say, Zhan Tianhu rushed back with Ouyang Feng as soon as possible, raising the big sword in his hand, screaming with great momentum.
Those Wind Knife Zerg Clans who were guarding the second and third lines of defense saw that the young patriarch was leading the clansmen and the enemy to fight bloodily, and their eyes were red and ready to move, and Ouyang Feng shouted loudly when he passed by to calm them down, so these teenagers did not leave their posts without permission, but they looked anxiously and worriedly at the figures of the clansmen in front of them who were almost overwhelmed by the endless tarantulas.
Tarantulas are smaller than the Wind Knife Zerg, but they are more agile, and their mad dog pack tactics are perfect for their race, dealing massive damage to enemies in all directions when they get close.
In just a few minutes, almost half of the young man of the Hundred Wind Knife Zerg Clan fell, and Qiu Yi gradually regained his composure at this time, and the corner of his eye glanced at the tarantula that was clinging to the cliff and kept spinning silk, and shouted under the urge to fight to the death: "Withdraw, withdraw to the second line of defense." ”
With Qiuyi's order issued, a group of Wind Knife Zerg teenagers fought and retreated, and after paying the price of ten casualties, they finally retreated to the second line of defense.
The terrain here was open, and the tarantulas who had just rushed into the mouth of the canyon were scattered, and there was not enough buffer for them to regroup, so that they temporarily lost their numerical advantage and started a three-on-one or four-on-one head-to-head fight with the Wind Knife Zerg.
Without the absolute numerical superiority, the lack of combat effectiveness of the tarantula is reflected, the young man of the Wind Knife Clan often slashes horizontally with a hand knife, and can cut several enemies in front of him in half, and the hand knife slashes down, which will penetrate the body of an enemy and nail it to the ground, and the favorable situation is drifting towards the Wind Knife Clan little by little.
Coming to Qiu Yi's side, Ouyang Feng swung his sword to slash the tarantula that rushed up, and reprimanded: "Qiu Yi, you are a second goods, I thought you didn't want to live, why didn't you withdraw just now?" Qiu Yi quickly turned around, shook off the tarantula that climbed on his back, and then split it in half with a knife in his hand. (To be continued.) )
