Chapter 34 War

"Ding ding ding!"

The not very crisp sound of metal striking suddenly rang out, instantly piercing the tranquility of the early morning.

Zhang Yang jumped up from his deep sleep, and at the same time he heard Wu Yuan's thunderous roar.

"Enemy attack! Westward, 3 miles away, 39 elite archers, 12 captain archers, 40 elite shield soldiers, 55 captain shield soldiers, 12 heavy antler cavalry."

"Archers on the walls, put up the shields, and the rest hold spears!"

Amid the chaotic footsteps, Zhang Yang rushed up to the city wall in a blink of an eye. After taking a few deep breaths, he completely calmed down.

He guessed right and wrong.

Yesterday he guessed that the mysterious enemy was going to take over the legacy of the deer demon. There is no doubt about this, otherwise there would be no possibility of heavy-armored deer-antler cavalry under the mysterious enemy's command.

Even among the 67 captain-level soldiers that appear now on the enemy, at least one-fifth of them received the legacy of the deer demon and were rapidly upgraded. Fighting to support fighting is no joke.

What Zhang Yang guessed wrong was that he thought the mysterious enemy would appear at least this afternoon or tomorrow to receive the legacy of the deer demon, but he actually came overnight. Was it because he was stimulated by the battle yesterday? "Open the fog of war!"

"Order all the new recruits in the training ground to hide in the fortress, including the instructor named Qin. Give him a weapon and ask him to join the battle."

Zhang Yang said in a deep voice, and then a piece of information was instantly reflected.

"Do you want to hire the training ground instructor Qin Ge to temporarily participate in this battle? Please choose the payment method. Pay 100 energy points in one go/pay 100 energy points for each enemy soldier killed."

"What the hell? Just that guy's frail little body?"

Zhang Yang expressed great doubts, but as he was short of soldiers, he chose to pay 100 energy points at one time. He bet that the guy would be lucky if he could kill one enemy soldier in the entire battle.

At this time, the fog of war has also spread, just covering the entire expanded fortress. The consumption of 100 energy points per minute is still very worthwhile. Looking out in the fog of war will not be affected at all, but if you want to look inside from the outside, your vision will be blocked by at least two-thirds.

At this time, the enemy troops sped up their marching speed. As the distance got closer, Zhang Yang and others finally saw clearly what their opponents were. They were jackals about 1.80 meters tall, with human bodies, but slightly hunched, and moving at a faster speed.

The weapons they used were basically the same as those used by Zhang Yang's soldiers.

"Qin Yidao, test shoot!"

"Liu Dali, Sun Goudan, Xu Erhe, get ready. Once the enemy releases the third-level protective amulet, shoot it immediately!"

When these werewolf soldiers rushed to a distance of 500 meters, Zhang Yang gave the order. They were now in a commanding position. Relying on the original height of the hill and the height of the fortress itself, there was a height difference of nearly 50 meters. For archers of the same level, the effect was completely different.

Following Zhang Yang's order, Qin Yidao took the lead in pulling the captain-level bow. There was a series of creaking sounds that made people feel uncomfortable with their bones, and the captain's bow was turned into a full moon by him, but he himself was still calm and composed. The effect of the red eagle battle pattern was clearly revealed at this moment. Other captain-level archers could not pull with such force.

After aiming for a full second, Qin Yidao suddenly released the bowstring. At the same time, a ray of light attached to the golden eagle's armor-piercing arrow. This was because he had released the armor-piercing arrow skill at the same time.

Suddenly, sound waves exploded, and five hundred meters away, a werewolf archer seemed to want to hide, but was still a step too late. He could not see the golden eagle's armor-piercing arrow at all. The only thing he saw was that its entire arm and half of its shoulder suddenly exploded into a ball of blood mist.

The power of this arrow seems to be no less than that of a high-powered sniper rifle on Earth.

But before Zhang Yang and the others could cheer, they heard a series of loud explosions. It turned out that the werewolf archers launched a counterattack in the direction where the arrows were shot.

Of course this is meaningless, because two-meter-high wooden battlements have been left on the fortress walls since its construction yesterday. Although those werewolf archers are powerful, at such a long distance, their arrows cannot penetrate the fifty-centimeter-thick baffles without releasing skills.

As if they understood this, the Werewolf archers on the opposite side continued to trot after shooting a round, while the Werewolf shield soldiers in front also raised their shields to speed up their charge. Their flexibility and agility were probably a level better than those of Song Dachui and his men.

Zhang Yang even felt that they could jump onto the fortress walls effortlessly.

"Agility? That's why I hate mad dogs!" Zhang Yang muttered and continued to give orders, "Everyone be careful. All archers, form groups and concentrate fire! Kill the captain-level archers first. Wu Yuan, pay attention to whether there are lords and heroes among the jackals. Also, look in other directions, don't let them attack you from behind."

"Boom!"

“Bang, bang, bang!”

At this time, other captain-level archers also began to lock on to their targets one after another. They were in groups of four, with Qin Yidao and Liu Dali as a duo. This was a previously determined strategy. Because arrows were limited, they prioritized clearing the enemy's long-range firepower.

Specifically, one person will test shoot first. If he can hit the target, then he will hit it. If he can't hit the target, it doesn't matter, because three friendly soldiers will immediately start assisting shooting to kill the target.

This tactic is very effective, especially when occupying the fortress and being covered by the fog of war.

When those Gnoll soldiers rushed to 400 meters away, three Gnoll captain-level archers had already been shot and killed!

The white light enveloped the village building order. The plundered demon souls, energy, fragments of hope and so on were not important. What was important was the golden eagle armor-piercing arrows, which were officially enhanced.

Zhang Yang immediately took it out and distributed it to everyone. It must be said that this function of the village construction order was extremely suitable for fighting to support the war.

However, the gnolls on the opposite side were really ferocious. Even at this time, they did not choose to release the third-level protection talisman, but just rushed forward towards the death feather arrows. Obviously, they were all experienced and knew that even if the third-level protection talisman was activated, they could not withstand the powerful shots of the captain-level archers, and they were knocked unconscious for no reason.

But in this case, they really become sitting ducks.

In just a few seconds, when they rushed to three hundred meters away, four more captain-level gnoll archers were shot and killed. Since then, seven captain-level archers of the other side have died, one was seriously injured, and only four are left.

But at this moment, clouds of black smoke suddenly rose from all directions and rushed towards the fog of war. Before Zhang Yang and the others could react, the fog of war was swallowed up. Even if the black smoke transformed by these little ghosts were killed on the spot by many captain-level soldiers in the next second, the werewolves' goal was achieved.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Moreover, the incident happened so suddenly that by the time everyone reacted, they were faced with a hail of arrows.

After all, there are 39 elite archers among the opposing gnolls.

This sudden rain of arrows directly killed three captain-level archers on Zhang Yang's side with headshots, and one captain-level archer was seriously injured. Even though the remaining four werewolf captain-level archers on the opposite side were killed by the furious Qin Yidao and others in an instant, it was still a step too late.

Outside the fortress, all the jackal shield soldiers howled and charged faster, especially the captain-level shield soldiers, who left a trail of afterimages on the spot. They rushed over in just a few breaths at a distance of 300 meters. Even though Wu Yuan had roared and thrown wooden spears, he and Song Dachui only had five captain-level soldiers, and the rest were elite soldiers, and the number was still small. The two rounds of wooden spears thrown out had no effect at all. Only Wu Yuan managed to kill two jackals with two throws, and Zhou Datou shot one jackal, and the rest all missed! Seeing that the more than 50 captain-level jackal shield soldiers were about to rush up the wall, Song Dachui, Wang Mumu, Duan Kuan, and Zhou Datou, the four-man group, jumped out with a roar and stopped the opponent head-on.

“Go to hell!”

With a roar, Song Dachui swung the hammer in his hand and blasted a jackal shield soldier who rushed to the front dozens of meters away with his shield. The shield was shattered and the soldier died! This result was not surprising. Even though they were all captain-level soldiers, these jackal shield soldiers were obviously good at agility and were directly suppressed by the four violent bears.

“Bang!”

A werewolf captain suddenly appeared beside Song Dachui, but before he could make a move, a tower shield as big as a mountain crashed into him and knocked him away. It was Wang Mumu who made the move.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

The sharp knife light flashed, like layers of waves, and blood was flying in an instant. Duan Kuan had already held the knife in both hands, and rushed to Song Dachui's right wing like a ghost, killing three people in a row, and cutting them all in with their shields.

“Swish, swish, swish!”

Three iron spears flew through the air. No matter how agile and skilled the werewolf captain was, he could not be faster than the iron spear in Zhou Datou's hand.

“Ding ding ding!”

The three iron spears were blocked by the shields, and the momentum of the three werewolf captains' charge was also curbed. But before they could make another effort, Song Dachui let out a sinister grin, and with a sweep of the huge iron hammer, the three werewolf captains were blown away again and were obviously dead.

Before Song Dachui could use all his old moves, Wang Mumu on the left wing had already stepped forward with his shield to block all the loopholes. Duan Kuan on the right wing took advantage of the situation and followed suit, like a poisonous snake out of a hole, taking dangerous moves with his knife, and taking advantage of Song Dachui's violent charge to keep reaping the rewards.

In the end, Zhou Datou held a shield in his left hand and an iron spear in his right hand, and took every opportunity to give Song Dachui a chance to attack.

The tacit cooperation between the four people is simply outrageous! This is the Violent Bear Foursome. All this happened in the blink of an eye. Because the four of them used the Mountain Monster Soul to strengthen and enhance at the same time, their compatibility has reached more than 50%. After Zhang Yang invested 5,000 energy points, they have such a tacit cooperation effect.

To be honest, if the four of them were to fight the gnoll captain in a 1vs1 battle, the chances of winning or losing would be 50-50.

However, the effect produced by the cooperation between the four of them was something that not only Zhang Yang but also Wu Yuan had not expected.
