Chapter 183: Bloodletting Tactics
Over the course of a month, the seven-man team searched several times in several different directions.
Their harvest in the treasure is average, although they have found a lot of spiritual weapons left by previous explorers, but after a long period of corrosion, most of these things have been almost destroyed, and the few that can be used are not very powerful, but they have a better understanding of the environment here.
On the one hand, Zhang Hanyun finally established direct communication with the strange fish, and with the deterrence of braised fish, her command of the fish became smoother and smoother.
The strange fish group does belong to a relatively powerful population here, winning in sharp teeth and a large number, often thousands of strange fish pass over, other creatures are avoided, and individual water tribes and land beast groups that dare to fight are also difficult to resist the group charge of the strange fish who are not afraid of death.
They also found that all of them were small water and land creatures here, thinking that large and medium-sized spirit beasts should live in the core area of the central courtyard, and these creatures were different from those in the fairy continent, there were many mutations and evolutions, and there were some varieties that had not been seen before.
In short, with their current cultivation, it is not easy to explore in the transition zone, and the core area is not yet able to touch it.
On the other hand, they have a deep understanding of the ever-changing celestial phenomena in the transition zone, where earthquakes, floods, torrential rains, hailstorms, etc., often occur without warning, and once a hurricane suddenly appeared, the group almost couldn't teleport back, and hundreds of strange fish were lost.
On this day, they decided to go on an expedition in a direction they had not been before.
At this time, each of the seven people stood on the body of a large strange fish, breaking the wind on the water surface, and thousands of strange fish were clustered in front and back, left and right, looking like they were walking on the waves, majestic.
Zhang Hanyun, who was nicknamed the commander of the fish group, suddenly said: "It's a little strange today, the reaction of the strange fish is unusual, the mood seems to be a little excited, and it seems to be a little afraid. ”
Hua Lanting said: "I think it's better to ask clearly, take precautions, is there anything abnormal in this direction?"
Zhang Hanyun asked and said: "They mean that there is a group of crabs in front of them as their old enemy, and there have been many big battles between the two sides in order to grab the territory, and the strange fish will be afraid of losing more than they win, but they hope that we can lead them to a victory." ”
"They also said that they already know what we want, and that the territory of the crab clan was once an ancient battlefield, full of spiritual energy, and there should be a lot of good things. ”
Everyone was eager to try it, and it was really a very poor harvest these days, which could not satisfy the appetite of explorers.
When the sun was completely above the horizon, the seven men reached the other side of the lake, and when they came ashore, they stopped to watch, and in front of them were a large area of low hills, interspersed with countless ponds and pools, and they had already seen the crab people that the strange fish called the scattered strange fish.
These crabs are not large, round and thick, but the eight crab feet are very long, like spiders, and the whole looks the size of a millstone, and two of them are particularly stout, but they are slower.
As soon as this landed, the two sides were really old enemies, and immediately there were spider crabs to engage with the strange fish that were exploring the way, and they were fighting.
Everyone looked at it for a while, and they all gasped.
The carapace of these spider crabs is so thick that the monster fish can't bite it in one bite, but their two front crows are powerful enough to split the smaller monster fish into two sections with a single clip.
In terms of battle results, it is often five or six strange fish to besiege and destroy a spider crab, and there are not one or two complete ones left on your side.
When a large number of spider crabs surged out from behind when they heard the sound, Lin Xian said after observing for a while:
"Interesting, the strange fish will only attack without any rules, but these spider crabs are organized, can organize a formation, attack and defend to a degree, it seems that there is a king of crabs commanding, maybe this is the reason why there are many strange fish but always defeated. ”
Hua Lanting asked: "Is there a way to help the monster fish win? Aren't you good at the art of war, fighting in battle formations, defeating the spider crab can we go deep to find the treasure." ”
Lin Xian was shocked and excited, rubbed his hands and said, "It's been a long time since I've had the opportunity to show my strengths and command such a large-scale corps to fight, and let Ben Shao try it." ”
After looking at it for a long time, Lin Xian asked Hua Lanting in surprise: "Can you borrow me that Feather Death Cup, or take me to the air for a short time, I have to look down on the terrain before I can formulate a combat strategy." ”
Hua Lanting shook his head: "I've tried, but I can only use it at present, and I can't bring anyone with me." ”
Huo Huixiao interjected: "My flying futon can take you up, but unfortunately there was something wrong before departure, and I haven't had time to ask someone to repair it." ”
Hua Lanting said, "Let me see." ”
After inspecting it, Hua Lanting said: "There is no problem with the core circle, there are a few aging and worn parts that need time to be made and replaced, but I can make a few temporarily, but I can only ensure that they are used once." ”
Lin Xian was shocked and said: "One time is enough, and you will repair it when you go back." ”
After repairing, Huo Huixiao took Lin Xian to fly up.
After glancing around, Lin Xian fell to the ground in shock, pondered for a moment, found a few stones on the ground, and said to everyone while fiddling:
"I see it clearly. Fortunately, the monster fish can come back to life after a while, which makes me have no worries about overkilling. ”
"You see, from what I've observed, spider crabs are very powerful, but they don't have as many as monster fish, so my overall strategy is to kill them. ”
"In the past, spider crabs occupied favorable terrain, and the one on the flat ground could be one when five on the hill could be one to block ten, and the strange fish paid too much price, and finally had to retreat. ”
"We must first order the strange fish to rely on the superiority of numbers to attack, and when we cross the hill in front of us, it is important to have a hill in front of us. ”
"The terrain is narrow, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the height of this hill is lower than the back, but the position is slightly prominent, and it is a battleground for soldiers, as long as you rush over, it is easy to do it when you reach the open land. ”
Hua Lanting looked at it and asked: "Regardless of the casualties, you can capture this mountain, but there is not much space on it, the trees on the slope are overgrown with thorns, and the number of strange fish that can be accommodated is limited, and it is easy for the spider crabs who occupy the back few hills to concentrate their forces to fight back." ”
Lin Xian was shocked and said: "You are right, it is difficult to hold after the fight, and if you don't fight, you can't fully break through, and the spider crab is holding this place, and the reinforcements are constantly being sent, which is very unfavorable to us." ”
"In a war, the weaker side can not hope for a decisive battle, but through a series of tactical victories, to achieve the purpose of effectively depleting the opponent's vital strength, so as to accumulate small victories into big victories, this is called the zero-knock kraft candy strategy, I stick to you, fight guerrilla warfare, consume you, and fight for consumption. ”
"So my approach is based on numerical superiority and the implementation of bloodletting. ”
"The so-called bloodletting tactic is that since the spider crab must seize this hill as a strategic point, then it must be defeated. ”
"But, after the fight, we don't want it, we withdraw, let the spider crab come and occupy it again, and then we fight again, and we fight again, and we fight like this, and we fight and fight like this, and we repeatedly hit one of the opponent's wounds, let it continue to bleed, and see who can consume it, and who can have the last laugh. ”
"There will definitely be a lot of casualties among the strange fish, but it is better than letting the spider crab fully occupy the territory and the casualties of the strange fish blindly attacking. ”
"Since I can't eat a fat man in one bite, I will fight but not occupy, attack but not defend, win quickly and leave quickly, continue to fight, repeatedly fight, and wait for the spider crab army to lose too much battle, a few of us will go up and kill those big commanders, without the main general, and the troops are insufficient, the soldiers' hearts will be chaotic, then this battle will be won. ”
Everyone listened with frequent nods.
Lin Xianjing's bloodletting tactic is based on the fact that the creatures in this place can be resurrected, giving full play to the characteristics of the large number of strange fish and their brave nature, limiting the advantages of the spider crab's individual strength and good at taking advantage of the geographical advantage to the greatest extent, and magnifying the weakness of its relative lack of numbers.
Yue Guanghan's eyes lit up, and he asked Lin Xian in surprise: "Big guy, how did you come up with it?"
Hua Lanting replied: "Without him, the blade of the sword is sharpened, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold, and it is tempered little by little." Thick accumulation may not be able to thin hair, but after a long time and a long distance, I suddenly look back, in fact, all the detours are straight roads. ”
After summoning nearly 10,000 strange fish to help in the battle, Zhang Hanyun issued an order to charge the strange fish under the command of Lin Xianjing.
According to Lin Xianjing's tactical arrangement, the strange fish gathered to attack the mountain, and after capturing it with several times more troops, they immediately retreated.
The spider crabs naturally understood the importance of this place, and quickly reoccupied the high ground, and the strange fish swarmed up again, exterminating all the spider crabs on the mountain through a bloody battle, and then retreated like a tide.
For more than a dozen times, after regaining the high ground one after another but being hit by the annihilation, the spider crabs behind began to be afraid, and they refused to step forward to die.
Under the pressure of the strong man in the spider crab, the remaining spider crabs slowly came up to occupy the empty mountain, and then when they were crippled and repelled by the wriggling army of strange fish, Hua Lanting and the others rushed forward with all their might, quickly passing the remnants of the spider crab soldiers who were sluggish in battle, and pointed directly at those commanders who were larger.
After successfully killing a few of them, the king of spider crabs finally couldn't bear the pressure and led his men to defeat in a hurry.
Lin Xian immediately ordered all the strange fish to pass through the mountain quickly, and a group of strong ones continued to chase forward, while the others spread out and advanced in all directions.
At this time, the disadvantage of the slow speed of the spider crab was exposed, and almost every one of them was surrounded and suppressed by more than a dozen strange fish, and in the end, only the king and a few spider crabs escaped.
After this battle, the strange fish won a comprehensive victory after paying less than four to one battle losses, and the vitality of the spider crab clan was greatly damaged, and this area has since belonged to the strange fish group.
The disciples of the Vientiane Sect were also elated, and after a short repair, they led a thousand strange fish to march inside.
At this time, it was already dark, and after walking for a short time, the ground in front of him gradually became dry and hard, and the heat under his feet began to appear, and the strange fish that followed him were too long away from the water, and felt the temperature rise, and refused to go any further.
After discussion, Hua Lanting and the others decided to send back the strange fish, and they stayed here for seven nights, and then continued to explore and hunt for treasures after the light was bright and conducive to observing the terrain and terrain.
