Chapter 297 Cavalry Clash

Li Ce and his companions had all seen extraordinary creatures, so they were not frightened by the blue giant lizard. However, the appearance of this giant still brought them tremendous pressure, making them clearly realize that this battle was not so easy to fight.

"Don't panic, we have the advantage in attack range! Act according to the plan!"

Since they had discovered each other at the same time, there was no room for Li Ce to retreat in the battle ahead.

It was not difficult to tell from the big lizard carrying the corpses of two bison that this should be the hunting team from the opposite side.

If they don't even dare to fight against the opposing hunting team, then why are they fighting? Just surrender!

"Fan-shaped attack formation!"

Following Li Ce's instructions, the cavalry quickly deployed their formation and drew their bows and drew their arrows.

"Shoot!"

The next second, with Li Ce's order, a rain of arrows swept directly towards the oncoming swift dragon cavalry.

I don’t know if it’s because they had previous experience in encircling and suppressing the Centaurs, but when facing arrow attacks, the velociraptors showed considerable experience in dealing with them.

While quickly dispersing the formation, they continued to advance while waving their spears to sweep away the arrows.

Faced with this situation, Li Ce quickly adjusted his tactics.

"Tactic number three, fan-shaped counterattack, pull each other!"

The moment they heard the order, the cavalry team of twenty people immediately split into four, with five people in each team dispersed in four directions and launched arrow attacks.

Li Ce's change of formation forced the opposing swift cavalry to face a choice: which side to attack first? Or should they also disperse?

Faced with this problem, the leading dragoon shouted, and the cavalrymen under his command immediately followed suit.

Li Ce, who kept a close eye on the other party's movements throughout the process, made a quick judgment.

[The enemy wants to concentrate their forces and defeat us one by one! ]

I don’t know if the group of lizardmen on the opposite side didn’t give it much thought or not, but they made the decision very quickly.

After seeing that Team No. 4 was being targeted, Li Ce immediately ordered the other three teams to press forward and increase the intensity of their attack.

As for the targeted Team No. 4, there was no need for Li Ce to say much. They simply reduced the frequency of attacks and focused on keeping a safe distance from the opposing Swift Dragon Cavalry.

At this moment, from the perspective of the dragoons, the intensity of the arrow attacks sweeping in from the other three sides was significantly increased. With only the spears in their hands, they could not sweep away all the arrows shot from all directions.

When it comes to defense, they rely more on the hard scales on their bodies.

After several rounds of attacks, many lizardmen were about to be shot into hedgehogs.

Under the attack, the pressure on the velociraptors increased dramatically. After being injured, the constant pain made the velociraptors under their mounts become irritable and roar frequently.

However, Li Ce, who saw this scene, showed no joy on his face.

In order to ensure that the cavalry could quickly draw their bows while on running horses, they were basically equipped with lighter short bows.

This also makes the arrows relatively weaker in power.

The other party looked miserable at this moment, but the fact that he was still alive was enough to explain a lot.

[Damn it, it can only cause flesh wounds?! ]

Almost at the same time when this thought flashed through Li Ce's mind, he clearly saw that the lizard man in the lead quickly picked up something hanging around his neck and put it into his mouth.

Immediately afterwards, a slightly shrill bone whistle sound spread.

This action startled Li Ce, and his first reaction was that the other party was sending a signal to summon his companions.

But then I thought it wasn’t quite right.

[Although this sound is harsh, its diffusion range is limited. If we were near the Lizardmen's camp, it would be fine. But now we are still far away from the Lizardmen's camp. What's the point of blowing this? Is there another Lizardmen team nearby? ]

Before he could think, a violent roar came from a distance.

It’s the big blue lizard carrying the corpses of two bison!

It’s not that Li Ce ignored him before, but he found that it was not convenient for the big lizard to move with the prey on its back. After all, the two bison were not light.

This also meant that after the battle on their side began, the big lizard did not make much movement, seemingly intending to focus on protecting its prey.

But now things have clearly changed.

As soon as the voice sounded, the big lizard seemed to have received some instructions. It swung its huge body several times and directly threw the two bison corpses tied to it to the ground. Then it roared and rushed towards them!

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The speed was so fast that even Li Ce was shocked! "Be careful of that big lizard!!"

Hearing the reminder, Team No. 2 and Team No. 3, who were closer to the giant lizard at the time, were both shocked. They didn't have time to continue drawing their bows and arrows, and hurriedly shouted "Gee!" and galloped away on their horses.

The big lizard's explosive charge speed could not be maintained for long. When it missed its target, its movement speed dropped sharply.

But its sudden charge reduced the pressure on the Swift Dragon Riders.

When he got the chance, he rushed towards Team Four.

This left Team 4 with no room to "fly a kite" and they had to start running hard.

The huge lizard's sudden charge completely disrupted Li Ce's tactical layout. Three of the four teams were now unable to take care of themselves.

However, thanks to this, when Team No. 4 completely gave up the attack and ran fast, Li Ce discovered that the opposing Swift Dragon Cavalry could not catch up with them in a short period of time.

The acquisition of this information made Li Ce's eyes light up! You know, if you want to use the cavalry archery tactics to succeed, you must first have an advantage in both attack range and mobility, otherwise it won't work.

Now it seems that they obviously have both advantages.

Although the advantage doesn't seem to be that big...

Li Ce didn't need to say much. Due to their usual tactical training, Team No. 4 had already taken the lead in leading the raptors to run in the opposite direction away from the enemy camp.

Seeing this, Li Ce took a deep breath and quickly gave the order...

"Teams One and Two, use a two-wing pincer attack to support Team Four! Team Three, continue to spread out and pin down that giant lizard!"

Compared with the velociraptors on the other side, what is the biggest advantage of their cavalry team at the moment? It is twice the number of the other side! Li Ce's current goal is very clear, that is, to use the advantage of numbers on his side to separate the other side and keep the velociraptors away from the big lizard.

Under this premise, facing the giant lizard, he only arranged a five-man team to contain it. From the very beginning, he didn't think that they could get rid of this big guy in this wave.

The reason was simple. Judging from the explosive power just displayed by the big lizard, it wanted to run and they couldn't stop it.
