Lingwu: I am the only immortal

Chapter 186
Zhou Yi failed to go to the county seat on the sixth day of the disaster due to Feng Ping's return, and missed a big drama.

The name of this scene can be called 'The Attack and Defense between Humans and Demons'.

The monsters' hunger cycle is quite effective. Generally speaking, they eat one meal for three days, but now they are growing, so they have a better appetite and digest quickly.

They have to look for food when they are hungry, but unlike before, this time they have a backbone.

In the dark, there is a voice speaking to them and giving them guidance.

So this ragtag group first gathered from all over the city like a white river flowing into the sea, and then set off in a mighty manner.

Zhou Yi's two Youyang scouts noticed the unusual behavior of the monsters, but after all, they could only see a corner, and it was difficult to get a glimpse of the overall situation in time, especially when there was a strange fog.

Therefore, when the monster army set off and happened to leave the west gate, the two of them knew that the monsters had left the city.

When Wang Xiu led the team to leave, he had warned the two of them that if a human team took action against Yu County, they should not turn a deaf ear. If there was a big discovery, they should notify the other party in time.

So at this time, while the two of them used crows to send a message to Yunwu Villa, they separated one person to inform Pang Wu.

With the ability of Youyang Scout, entering a mortal military camp is like entering an uninhabited land, especially at night, as the night is the best invisibility coat.

Pang Wu's Chinese army tent is not difficult to find. It is the most luxurious one in the entire military camp.

The scout was quite polite, and did not enter the house. Instead, he appeared in front of the guards on duty. Without waiting for the other party to ask, he showed his badge and said: "I am the fan of Xichang, and I am here to defeat your general. I am here in the county." The monsters have already swarmed out of the city and are advancing towards this side."

Pang Wu's personal guard didn't actually know the token of the Twelve Prisoners, but he couldn't afford to gamble.

In particular, Youyang Scout's powerful performance will make people instinctively think:

If you are so powerful, why do you need to deceive me?
So one of the guards clasped his fists and said, "Please stay here for a little while. I'm going to wake up my general right now."

When turning around, he winked at his companion to keep an eye on him, and then entered the tent.

However, Youyang Scout could not wait impatiently. In front of the soldier, his figure faded and disappeared.

Seeing this, the other party swallowed his saliva subconsciously and thought to himself: "If this person is an assassin, then my general may be in danger."

Pang Wu was worried about the situation and had not slept well. After being awakened and hearing the information, he suddenly became excited and no longer sleepy at all.

Xin Xin said: "This should be the subordinate of Zhao Er, the extraordinary worshiper mentioned by the surviving refugees. This damn eunuch is really nothing. He uses the money of the imperial court to do private things, and sends a dozen worshipers to drive his nephew and imperial envoys to go on patrol. I'm afraid it won't be so dignified." "

Of course, jealousy was jealousy, and Pang Wu still knew the value of friendship with Xiao Xiao. While tidying up his clothes, he asked people to invite the scouts in.

As a result, the soldiers reported back, and the other party disappeared in front of him.

Well, who can refuse to let these people with extraordinary abilities appear in front of others?Moreover, most capable people like to show off their personalities.

Now is not the time to worry about these things. The primary focus now is whether to believe the information sent by the other party.

Pang Wu chose to believe.

Instead of panicking and accepting the fight after being ridden by a monster, Pang Wu would rather make his own mistake. If there really was no monster to attack, he would just practice for battle.

So orders were sent out one by one from the Chinese military tent, and there was no need for the officers under his command to come to the meeting. They could each lead their own people to carry out their tasks.

After all, just today during the day, when the soldiers and auxiliary soldiers were setting up camp, he discussed the response tactics with the officers.

The military camp quickly started operating like a huge machine.

In just half an hour, the monster army arrived in front of the camp.

In fact, it was discovered earlier.

It's not that Pang Wu's exploration cavalry is powerful, but that the monster march is equivalent to holding a battle with open fire.

These guys themselves are actually emitting fluorescence, as if they are inlaid with gems, mainly concentrated on the upper body, shoulders and chest.

Also, these guys are like climbing on the clouds and walking on the mist.

I don’t know that monsters have a natural internal connection with the mist. In short, the mist is like surging dry ice, rolling and rolling near the monsters’ knees, which is about one meter.

Scarlet lightning snakes leap from time to time in the mist, which can also provide a certain amount of light.

In short, it is difficult not to pay attention to this strange luminous army marching in the wilderness.

Pang Wu's response strategy was to preheat the catapult and other equipment in time and light the measuring lamp.

As the name suggests, a measuring lamp is a bonfire lit to confirm distances at night.

This distance was measured in advance in order to cooperate with the trebuchet.

At the beginning, considering that there might be a need to blast open the city gates, we packed up three heavy trebuchets, which have now become weapons of war.

Of course it's not throwing stones. The short and precious opportunity to throw stones cannot be wasted on throwing inefficient things like that. Adding fire oil cans is the real thing.

The monster army was still thousands of meters away from the official position, and the kerosene tanks here began to project.It takes dozens of seconds for the can to fly in the air.

It exploded when it hit the ground, and flames were blazing in a radius of more than ten meters.

The effect is unsatisfactory.

Monsters are still afraid of fire, but their tolerance is good. It is not a big problem to escape from the burning area in time without being contaminated with flammable materials.

The unlucky ones were those who were directly hit by fire oil cans or had fuel poured all over them.

Even if he looks very strong, he cannot avoid being a grilled lobster.

If Zhou Yi were at the scene, with his extraordinary qualities, he would be able to clearly discover and deduce that an unknown existence uses the mist as a medium to control, or roughly influence, the monster's mind.

The Youyang scouts couldn't draw such clues. They thought the monster's confusion was due to the burning flames.

As for the raging flames wiping away the mist in the surrounding area, this is normal. The main component of the mist is moisture. The evil mist is of the evil nature, and the raging flames can restrain it.

After all, the monsters were still a bit lacking in intelligence and poor correlation skills. The flying fire oil cans did not make them realize that it was an enemy attacking them, but they thought it was some kind of unexpected disaster.

As a result, their march did not change speed or disperse, and they continued to behave as before.

In fact, this is already the result of being influenced and constrained.Otherwise they will be distracted by the flames and become confused.

Pang Wu saw that the effect of the fire oil cans seemed to be good, so he ordered to increase the intensity of the attack and smash out as many fire oil cans as possible.

Next, flowers of flame bloomed from time to time in the monster team. Due to the increase in the number of burnt people, the smell of barbecue became more and more intense in the team.

This did not scare the monsters, but instead stimulated their desire to eat, and the advancement began to accelerate.

Finally, the official and military lines appeared within their sight.

I don't know which one was the first to let out a loud howl of hunger, and the remaining monsters responded one after another, and then began to charge like a swarm.

Because he is not very smart, Kong has good warrior strength, but he is trapped by simple traps one after another.

However, the thorns in the pit cannot kill them. Even if these thorns are carbonized with fire to increase their hardness, they are still not enough to break the monster's carapace, unless they hit the soft part between the shells. .

The monster was injured but not dead, it just fell into a mess and couldn't return to the battle sequence for a while.

From Pang Wu's point of view, he noticed that the trap caused heavy losses to the monsters, and he immediately felt inspired. He changed hands and informed the entire army of the good news, hoping that people would continue their efforts to keep the monsters out of the front line.

But in fact, the government and the army can no longer come up with more effective means of confrontation.

The horse can't stop the monster's charge at all.

These monsters are not galloping horses. They are much more agile. They fell into pits before mainly because they were gathered together, caught off guard and suspected of being trampled.

Now that he starts to charge, he has room to make changes, and he shows his flexibility.

The dragon spear that Pang Wu asked to rush out had very limited effects.

Or because the monster is flexible enough, it will not rush straight towards the hedgehog-like front, but will fly up at the right time.

Just like the Hulk's most commonly used method in movies and TV shows, a huge jump of more than ten meters high and dozens of meters away, the official army's hedgehog formation crossed over.

As for the long-range means of individual soldiers on the official and military side, bows are basically useless, because few in the army can shoot hard bows. That is to say, crossbows are of some use, but the shooting trajectory of the crossbow determines that it is not to throw a rain of arrows, but to engage in close combat. Come in one or two waves to attack the enemy's arrogance.

Even if there are two groups of five hundred crossbowmen, the damage they can cause is very limited.

The monster was already riding on its face, and its strengths began to show. Coupled with the large number, it shot down like a torrent, advancing all the way, and was unstoppable. The officers and soldiers' front only lasted less than 5 minutes before it began to collapse.

There is nothing more to say after that.A simple summary is the destruction and flight of the army.

Pang Wu felt that even if his assessment of monsters was a little low, it would not be too low.

It turned out that a large level had been underestimated.

He thought that the chelicera monsters were just the elite among the monsters, with an average of dozens of horned monsters and one chelicera monster.But now, almost all of them were clawed monsters. His troops would be dead if they faced this heavy cavalry regiment.

The previous tactical plans that first dampened the local spirit, then retreated and blocked layers of attacks have become empty talk.

Seeing that they were about to make dumplings, the two Youyang scouts couldn't see it and showed off their power.

At present, due to the severe lack of extraordinary power, the old corpse Yin soldiers have no strength comparable to the foundation building stage, but they can only be used as muscle sticks.

The large logs as thick as a bowl of sea were used as spears and spears, striking, smashing, and sweeping them three times, opening a gap for the officers and soldiers to retreat.

The officers and soldiers who were already desperate saw that there was life, and immediately cheered up the bravery of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. At the cost of casualties, part of them was withdrawn.

In fact, this is also related to the fact that the monsters are not serious soldiers and lack grassroots commanders.

Otherwise, if there is another swarm Hulk-like jump and the officers and soldiers are surrounded for the second time, it will be really difficult to save the gods.

It's a pity that these guys are here to serve dinner.

Some of them could no longer stand the temptation of fresh flesh and blood and began to eat on the spot.

And more and more monsters are following the same example, even roaring and biting each other because there are more wolves and less meat. Seeing that it is too laborious to decide the winner, they turn their attention to chasing the officers and soldiers.

In short, the monsters were in chaos, without the ground-washing effect of the torrent of troops at the beginning, while the officers and soldiers abandoned their helmets and armor and ran away for their lives.

There is no way, no one else would be able to bear the burden of carrying a bag while running for their lives.There is no need to run for one's life. Carrying two large bags of things and going up the stairs is exhausting and panting. But in the current situation, running 1000 meters is enough?Why can't we run [-] meters first?

At the same time, Zhou Yi also received the latest report from the scouts.

After seeing it, he knew that the officers and soldiers were going to do something wrong.

He summoned Wang Xiu and said, "Take another group of people and collect the defeated army as much as possible. Without such a team to deal with monsters, the surrounding villages and towns will suffer next..."

As for the core purpose, it is still the same: act according to circumstances.

This was to give full play to Wang Xiu's professional talents and entrust the affairs to him.

Wang Xiu and the others were naturally capable of speed and efficiency. Without any burden, they could travel thousands of miles in a day or eight hundred in a night by using the lifting technique taught to them by Zhou Yi.

Even if the road was not strong enough, within two hours, they encountered rout soldiers head-on. Wang Xiu asked the Yin soldiers to scatter to search and gather rout soldiers. They also brought the life-saving medicine bestowed by Zhou Yi
However, there is a limit to how medicine can cure diseases, Buddha can save destined people, and raise people from the dead to reincarnation. Seriously injured people with only one breath left will not be saved, because the cost is too high.

Wang Xiu and the others also killed some lone monsters that were chasing after them.

Killing these clawed monsters is much more difficult than before.

Anyway, the most realistic feeling is that even if it is one-on-one, it is difficult for Wang Xiu and the others to kill one of them.

Obviously, the monster is still on the fast track of growth.

Of course, it is one thing that monsters continue to become stronger, and it is also another thing that they have few means.

After all, their strength is essentially based on the power of old zombies. To put it bluntly, it is the road of zombies.

Without the blessing of many extraordinary means, the characteristics of zombies are the same as their performance. They are strong, have good comprehensive attributes, can fight and carry, and have good endurance...

In the process of gathering the defeated troops, there were naturally many tragedies. Some people could only watch them die, and even gave them a happy life in order to avoid suffering a little pain.

If you have never experienced real painful torture, it is difficult to imagine the feeling of wanting to die when life is worse than death.

In this regard, Wang Xiu and the others were considered experienced. After all, many people did not die happily back then.

Because I have experienced it myself, I can understand it better.

Moreover, Wang Xiu and the others do not like sensationalism. They may not have been qualified warriors back then, but after hundreds of years of hard work, they are already.

Wang Xiu and the others failed to meet Pang Wu.

Later, I learned from the defeated soldiers that Pang Wu and his entourage had been prepared early in the morning and had a strong purpose in escaping. They worked hard and walked resolutely.

In this way, Wang Xiu led the backbone of more than thirty Yin soldiers and gathered more than 800 defeated soldiers.

Among them, there are more than 300 regular soldiers and [-] auxiliary soldiers.

These auxiliary soldiers may not be good at fighting, but their survivability is often good.

Moreover, one was not wearing armor at the time, and the other was at the back of the battle line, and did not fight much. His physical fitness was relatively better, and he was able to escape more.

However, it was Wang Xiu and the others who responded in time, otherwise with the weather and their condition, they would eventually have to reduce their number by a quarter.

What's more important is that the future is uncertain, and deserters generally end up with bad consequences, including but not limited to robbing villages and towns in order to survive, which can be said to add insult to injury.

Now, in the name of Xichang fanzi, Wang Xiu is willing to accept them and revive them. In every aspect, it is better than being a deserter.

Shortly after dawn, Wang Xiu led people back to the Niu Ma Ji.

After the monsters gathered together to cause trouble, they left overnight.

Wang Xiu thought they would continue their efforts and go to nearby villages and towns to look for food.

After all, the total number of monsters exceeds [-]. Pang Wu's army, plus its regular and auxiliary troops, does not actually number more than [-]. No matter how you calculate it, it is not enough to eat.

But it turned out that Wang Xiu had forgotten one thing, that is, monsters also eat the corpses of the same kind.

Last night, a lot of monsters were burned to death, and another group were killed desperately. Some went crazy and left the main body. The lone ones Wang Xiu and the others killed were of this type.

Therefore, the overall number of monsters decreased, and the monster corpses, the corpses of the officers and soldiers who were also killed, and the beasts of burden in Pang Wu's army that failed to escape were all managed together with this meal, so after eating, they went back home.

Wang Xiu and others rushed back immediately, and basically all the military supplies and food supplies were there.

In addition, they collected a batch of broken armor and other items. Apart from the lack of large animals to pull carts, it was more than enough to arm these [-] people.

The most basic chewing cost can last at least a month without the need for replenishment.

Wang Xiu was not satisfied with this. After the monster ate, he returned to his nest to sleep and eat. He sent Yin soldiers to search the city.

After this raid, Yuxian County has basically lost its use value.

Wang Xiu planned to take these people to Mingping Town.

Yunwu Villa is located in a remote place, while Mingping Town is on the official road.

This official road leads to neighboring counties. It was originally built because gold mines were discovered in neighboring counties.

To develop gold mines, materials had to be transported in and outputs had to be transported out, so ordinary roads were invested and became official roads.

But after the gold mines were exhausted, it gradually declined. The remote location was the main problem.

But no matter what, sticking to the official line is somewhat convenient, including logistics.

Mingping Town is half a day's journey from Yunwu Villa, so Wang Xiu thought it would be good to camp there.

On the one hand, it can guard the Bali Forest Road, the only way to Yunwu Villa.

On the other hand, you can take advantage of officialdom.

Moreover, Mingping is a town after all, and 800 people can still support general purchases.

Wang Xiu wanted to arm this team there. Just like this, he would die with the monster.

Zhou Yi had previously let Wang Xiu see how to carry guns and artillery.They are all DIY by Zhou Yi.

As an officer, Wang Xiu was well aware of the terror of such weapons and had long been enthusiastic about them.
