Chapter 114: Dragon Crossing the River
Before they were three kilometers away from the village, a team of two hundred people rushed out, all of them captains.
Among them, one hundred archers each guarded the hills on both sides of the village, and the remaining one hundred infantrymen lined up in the middle, with large shields in front and spearmen in the back. Even twenty heavy cavalrymen with giant horned deer rushed out from the back and circled around the upper left wing, which was right in the area where they could charge at any time. This was really amazing.
As expected, in this dangerous fantasy world, every village that can exist is not simple.
Zhang Yang also asked people to stop. He took Ryan and Duan Kuan and walked forward two hundred meters, waiting for the other village chief to appear.
However, even though he showed such goodwill, the other village chief was still extremely cautious and did not show up. Instead, a soldier delivered the message.
"You are not welcome here. Please go back. This village has no intention of conducting business exchanges, let alone reminiscing with fellow villagers. The road ahead is dangerous. Please take care. I will not see you off."
Zhang Yang shouted, "Wu Yu introduced me here. I have no ill intentions. It's just that when I came here just now, I encountered some unidentified malicious tracking and peeping. I guess it's not the little ghost from your village, so I came to remind you, please be careful."
The other soldier ran back, and soon came back again, shouting, "You are the one who should be careful. As the village chief, you dare to show your face. Are you tired of living? Aren't you afraid of being sniped by someone with ulterior motives? As for Wu Yu, he is even more of a fool. He was killed by a group of river dragons three days ago. His bones were smashed and eaten. Do you think your hunting team is stronger than Wu Yu?"
"Go back to your village quickly. This world is very dangerous, more dangerous than you can imagine. When you think everything is safe, that's when you might be in big trouble."
"What is a river crossing dragon?" Zhang Yang asked hurriedly, and was also extremely shocked. Wu Yu was actually dead? Although there were only 40 people left in his wandering team, they were equipped with the Spear of Imprisonment and replaced with long swords. Their strength was also quite good. How could they be wiped out?
After hearing Zhang Yang's words, the soldier did not return. It was obvious that the village chief had expected him to ask this question.
"I'll answer you one last time. The so-called "crossing river dragon" is the village chief from another world who came to our fantasy world to complete the trial mission. When we went to complete the hero trial, we were the crossing river dragon. Now, it's our turn to be the NPC. Got it? Go back quickly. You guys are so arrogant and don't seem to be vigilant at all. You must have been targeted a long time ago. Maybe your village has been breached by now."
Zhang Yang was shocked. It was the first time he had heard of the concept of Jianglong. Wu Yu, who claimed to be a know-it-all, actually didn't know about it. Well, this was the consequence of not building a village.
"Can you tell me the specific information about the dragon that killed Wu Yu? I will definitely reward you handsomely one day."
The soldier ran back, and soon came back, "No need to reward me generously, we are all from the same hometown, it's just what we can do. Those dragons who crossed the river belong to the orc civilization, and they are reincarnated dragons who crossed the river, which means that the village chief of an orc tribe consumed at least 50 white fragments of hope to make a prayer. In this way, once an orc village chief from another world wants to complete the hero trial, he will be matched with this orc tribe first."
"Usually, reincarnating a river dragon has a main quest. As for the content of the main quest, I don't need to explain it to you. Brother, you are being targeted. Is there an orc tribe near your village? If I were you, I would run as far away as possible right now, become the second best martial artist, and find a way to accumulate white hope fragments. When I have 100 of them, I can be free."
"As for the struggle for supremacy, it has nothing to do with you. You are out of the game. Don't go back for rescue, because the enemy must be waiting for you to go back so that they can surround and attack the reinforcements. I suspect that the strange peeping you encountered before was for this purpose. It's a pity that you are too stupid to rely on me to tell you in person. Are you too arrogant or are there too many idiots these days?"
“No!”
Watching the enemy soldiers slowly retreating, Zhang Yang was still stunned. Did he meet a smart person today?
So he immediately roared out his advice for free.
"Never, ever raise a little ghost, or any ghost assassin, or ghost priest."
"Get out! I'm almost becoming an idiot after talking to you, an idiot, for so long." An angry voice came from afar.
Zhang Yang laughed loudly, not looking anxious at all.
"My Lord, over there in the village..."
Ryan asked.
"It doesn't matter. What can Guojianglong do? He can't do anything to Wu Yuan and the others." Zhang Yang was full of confidence. If Guojianglong was the lord from another world who came to complete the heroic trial, then the number of people would definitely not be large. Even if the soldiers of the Orc tribe were added, it would be wishful thinking to easily break through his village.
Wu Yuan, Wang Shen, Qin Yidao, and the Xianyu duo, five heroes, nearly a hundred captain-level soldiers, hundreds of elite soldiers, plus the double walls of the village. If it is just defense, there is nothing to worry about unless the Orc Tribe wants to fight to a draw.
Therefore, what the smart guy said just now was right. The other side will definitely play the siege and attack strategy.
As soon as this thought flashed through my mind, a red message appeared.
"Your village is under attack by the enemy. Please provide support as soon as possible. If the village is breached, you need to use the village construction order to continue building the village. Note: The maximum number of village constructions with one village construction order is 3. If it is breached three times, it will be 100% dropped."
"Interesting, let's go back to defense."
Zhang Yang smiled slightly, and hurriedly turned back with everyone.
Since the enemy wants to surround and attack the reinforcements, we should cooperate tacitly.
Look, our morale is so low that we don't even have a defensive formation. We are tired and hungry after a forced march all night. It's a good opportunity to ambush us.
"There are idiots every year, but this year there are especially many."
In the village in the distant valley, the soldier who was responsible for delivering the message was standing on the village wall, surrounded by several heroes like stars surrounding the moon.
It turns out that he is the village chief, and he even deceived Zhang Yang with his acting.
"My Lord, should we go and warn them? They are friendly forces after all."
One of the heroes asked.
"Why warn? This guy must have received the news that his village was attacked, so he ran back like a starving ghost. Look at the formation. Also, it will be dark soon, and he is rushing back in such a hurry. He has violated all the taboos that should not be violated."
"Oh, I'm already mad at this kind of idiot. If all the humans on Earth are idiots like this, I'd rather hope for their demise. What hope is there?"
"Maybe this guy is trying to take advantage of our situation?" another hero speculated.
"He used his own trick against his opponent. This guy is really confident, but does he know how powerful the enemy is? Wu Yu's team was very strong, but they were completely wiped out in less than 20 minutes after we received the news and rushed over to rescue them. Do you understand what kind of force this is?"
"That idiot thought the enemy was surrounding a point and attacking reinforcements, so he was overconfident and wanted to defeat them all at once. Little did he know that the enemy might be playing a trick within a trick. Just wait and see. The encirclement has been set up long ago, and the battle will definitely start tomorrow morning. So send a few people to bring me some of their bones tomorrow. After all, we are all fellow villagers. Although we can't go home, we have to rest in peace, right?"
——
“Ding ding ding!”
"Enemy attack! Due west, one hundred, three hero units, the eighth and ninth infantry squads in front, villagers are retreating, requesting cover."
When the bronze bell rang, Wu Yuan was having lunch. It was his turn to rest today. Wang Shen was in charge of the outer security.
"Activate emergency plan number one!"
"Be prepared to switch to emergency plan number two at any time!"
Wu Yuan quickly picked up the command flag and waved it several times. Since there were no ghosts in the village, their shouts might be heard by the ghosts, so Zhang Yang figured out a way of command, including fifteen emergency plans.
"The first, second, third, and fourth archer squads go up to the city wall. The fifth and sixth infantry squads support the encirclement."
After Wu Yuan gave the order, he rushed to the city wall to observe the enemy situation.
On the other side, after receiving Wu Yuan's signal, Qin Yidao calmly gave the order, "Sun Goudan, get into the sniper position, Liu Dali get into the cover position, activate the cloaking symbol, I'll hold the fort!"
As the three people with the strongest long-range killing capabilities in the village, they are the trump cards and the stabilizing force.
Having learned from the lesson of the previous battle, the three of them would never appear at the same time, but one would be responsible for covering one.
Sun Goudan was the first one, responsible for using the jade longbow to snipe the most threatening target among the enemy. If the enemy immediately launched a counter-sniper attack and threatened Sun Goudan, then it would be Liu Dali's turn to provide secondary sniper cover.
If the enemy also develops a second anti-sniper attack, then Qin Yidao will provide cover for the third sniper attack.
Outside the village, the enemy charged very quickly, and as if they had conducted reconnaissance long ago, they deliberately avoided Wang Shen's guard team and rushed straight from the farmland in the west.
The two teams here were commanding the busy farmers to retreat while forming a military formation and slowly retreating.
At the same time, two other infantry squads were approaching rapidly, and everything was moving quickly and orderly.
Even Wang Shen's patrol team did not rush over to join the battle, but instead deployed defenses in the direction of the tavern, preparing for the enemy's subsequent attack.
In less than half a minute, Sun Goudan had rushed to the tallest arrow tower in the village. This was a level 5 arrow tower, 50 meters high, and was the sniper position with the best view in the village.
There are standing sentries and bronze bells for warning. If you shoot from here, you can easily support the village in all directions.
"Grandpa is here!"
Sun Goudan shouted loudly, and the captain-level longbow in his hand was easily pulled into a full moon. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, three consecutive explosions broke through the air, and three invading orc soldiers more than 500 meters away were killed instantly.
At this rate, Sun Goudan alone can kill at least half of the enemies when the two sides are fighting.
The combat effectiveness of the two-star Archer King is not exaggerated. With the advantage of timing and terrain, he can defeat the enemy without any hesitation.
But just as Sun Goudan fired ten arrows in a row and was having a great time killing, a black shadow flew by quickly, approached rapidly using the shadow of the building, and quickly climbed up the arrow tower, but Sun Goudan was unaware of it.
The next second, when the shadow was about to kill Sun Goudan instantly, there was a sharp explosion, and a jade heavy arrow was shot by Liu Dali who was hiding in a hidden position! Even though the shadow was invisible, there was no shadow on the high tower. Under the sunlight, with a bow king like Liu Dali specifically locking on, no matter how powerful the assassin was, he could not escape.
With a loud "bang", the black shadow was destroyed in an instant, and even the corpse was gone.
"not good!"
Liu Dali, who shot the arrow, instinctively felt that something was wrong, but before he could jump out from his hiding place, he heard a thunder-like sound in his ears. It turned out that Qin Yidao drew the bow in an instant, and this time he finally killed the black shadow completely.
But at the same time, a big man suddenly appeared beside Qin Yidao. He was Wang Mumu, who claimed to follow Zhang Yang to hunt. He held the Bull Tower Shield in his hand and protected Qin Yidao tightly.
Then there was a sonic explosion and a huge fireball.
“Ding ding ding!”
"boom!"
The huge shock wave blew up Qin Yidao's hiding place, but he was safe and sound. Instead, Wang Mumu spat out a mouthful of blood. This time, the enemy did not make a feint attack, but launched an all-out attack.
It's not a siege at all.
“Go to hell!”
Qin Yidao roared, and changed the jade longbow in his hand into a captain-level longbow. In the blink of an eye, he shot out two rounds of sixty-four golden eagle armor-piercing arrows. This was one of his signature skills, the Thirty-two Stars in a Row.
This rain of arrows instantly wiped out the enemy's third wave of anti-sniper teams.
Including an orc mage, five captain-level archers, and an archer hero, they used some unknown means to hide near residential areas and wait patiently until Sun Goudan and Liu Dali took action. Finally, they concentrated their fire and almost killed Qin Yidao again.
Leaving Wang Mumu behind was a matter of course. As there were two MTs in the village, since Zhang Yang had taken away Ryan who was holding the Stag Tower Shield, he must leave Wang Mumu who was holding the Bull Tower Shield behind.
Only in this way can we cooperate with the Qin Yidao and Xianyu duo.
Of course, in order to achieve better results, Wang Mumu has been disguising himself as other soldiers. He has not appeared in the village during this period of time, trying to deceive the enemy's little devils.
"Activate emergency plan number three! The enemy situation has changed."
Qin Yidao shouted at this time. He was scared by the concentrated fire just now. Who could have thought that the enemy would be so cunning and equipped with a mage fireball, that is, Wang Mumu holding the Bull Tower Shield. If it were someone else, he would have died long ago.
The enemy was very tough this time.
"Ding ding ding"
The bells rang more urgently, and all the teams, including Wang Shen's team in the tavern, began to retreat quickly towards the castle.
The villagers in the houses were also evacuated in an orderly manner.
That was the emergency plan number three. At the critical moment, farmland, houses, and taverns could be abandoned. Clear the fields and defend to the death! At the same time, a large number of orc soldiers began to appear outside the village. There were probably seven or eight hundred of them. The orc lord was attacking with all his might.
