Chapter 300 The melee begins (Part 3) (Bonus update for accumulating 300 monthly tickets)
Although the big lizard had equipment similar to reins, it had no saddle, which made the lizardman captain feel uneasy.
Now they were attacked by arrows. Although their arrows were all aimed at the giant lizard, it was obviously unrealistic for the lizardman captain lying on the back of the giant lizard to stay completely out of it.
He had no choice but to bite the bullet, hold the reins with one hand, and swing the spear in the other, trying to knock away the arrows.
But at this moment, the big lizard was thrown violently by the skeleton soldier hanging on its body.
Compared to the velociraptor, the giant lizard had an overly broad and flat back, so he couldn't stabilize his body by squeezing his legs together. In the end, his entire body was lifted into the air because of the giant lizard's movements.
He only had one hand left holding on to the reins, which prevented him from being thrown out completely.
However, seeing it soar into the air, how could Li Ce let it go? As soon as the first arrow flew out, he immediately followed up with the second arrow, using a unique skill of continuous arrows to attack the opponent! One of the arrows directly hit the arm of the lizardman captain holding the reins.
He doesn't have as good archery skills as Zhou Chongshan, so there is some element of luck involved. But sometimes, isn't luck itself a kind of strength?
His arm felt pain, and as the giant lizard swung and pulled wildly, both the skeleton soldier and the lizardman captain were thrown away.
His body fell to the ground, and the fall made him dizzy and see stars.
Without even giving him a chance to come to his senses, Li Ce spurred his horse forward, saw the right spot, and pulled the reins hard. With a neighing sound, the warhorse raised its front legs and then fell heavily, taking the opponent's life.
Li Ce then continued to move, and picked up the bone whistle with the crescent halberd in his hand, and then found an opportunity to throw it to a soldier of Team No. 1.
"Run away and blow it!"
At this moment, the soldier already knew what Li Ce was going to do, so without saying a word, he took the bone whistle, turned his horse around and galloped away.
During this time, Li Ce's eyes frequently swept over the body of the big lizard.
The big lizard's performance before was too ferocious, and the battle situation was chaotic. He was busy giving orders and didn't pay much attention to some details.
Only then did he realize that although this giant lizard was huge and looked thick-skinned and the scales covering its skin were very dense, its defensive strength was not high, at least far less than they had expected!
Although the continuous arrow attacks from Team 1 did not cause it fatal injuries, the special green blood continued to flow out of its body.
Judging from the situation, they might be able to starve this giant lizard to death!
Just as he was thinking this, a sharp bone whistle sounded in the distance, causing the big lizard, which was preparing to counterattack, to pause.
Then he pushed the ground with his hind legs, exerted force, and rushed towards the direction where the sound came from.
After all, it's just a wild beast. There's no need to think that the big lizard is too smart.
At this moment, Li Ce had no intention of chasing after it. In the current situation, rather than chasing after the giant lizard, the more important thing to do was to quickly deal with the remaining velociraptors on the opposite side.
With this idea in mind, Li Ce immediately called on the remaining three cavalrymen of Team No. 1 to go to the melee area to provide support.
The soldiers on both sides who were engaged in the melee probably didn't even notice what was happening outside.
This is undoubtedly a good thing for Li Ce.
The bravery of the Lizardmen is unquestionable, but so is their superiority in numbers! If they can't win one-on-one, then they can just go two-on-one, or even three-on-one!
In the chaos of the battle, after several of the opposing dragoons were killed, their advantage was quickly established.
During this period, the soldiers' performance gradually stabilized.
When nearly half of their troops were lost, the Dragoons realized that the situation was not right and began to try to break out.
However, without the captain's unified command, the remaining dragoons didn't know who to listen to.
During the breakout, three more were stabbed to death one after another, and finally only three were left.
But this does not mean that they can escape unscathed.
The velociraptors, covered in blood, now had their mouths open and drooling, a sign of exhaustion.
The physical strength of the velociraptor itself is not outstanding, and the lizardmen are also large and heavy, which makes their sustained combat capabilities always worrying.
At this moment, the weaknesses are fully exposed.
The cavalrymen led by Li Ce would not let them escape and would directly chase them down.
Amid screams, the last dragoon of the enemy was quickly stabbed to death by their spears, but the battle was not over yet. Don't forget, there is still a big lizard that has not been dealt with.
"Those who are seriously injured, stay here with Team Two to clean up the battlefield. Everyone else, follow me!"
With a call, Li Ce led the remaining cavalry and charged towards the direction where the giant lizard was.
Unlike the beginning when they didn't know how to deal with the giant lizard, although the two sides only had a brief fight, Li Ce, who paid the price of blood in the process, already knew clearly how to target the giant lizard.
The enemy is not scary, what is scary is that you don’t know how to fight.
As long as you can successfully master the method to deal with it, the fear in your heart will naturally disappear.
Li Ce's idea was very simple. He asked the soldiers to carry a skeleton to prevent the giant lizard from attacking with its tongue, and then use arrows to consume it from a distance and bleed it to death! However, the giant lizard was obviously not stupid. After realizing that its life was threatened, it immediately turned around and fled. At this time, even blowing the bone whistle was useless.
It is not easy to identify directions on the grassland, and the panicked big lizard rushed in the opposite direction of the lizardman camp like a headless fly.
Seeing this, Li Ce was not at all panicked and directly ordered a pursuit.
Because he had studied it clearly and found that although the giant lizard's burst of speed was amazing, it was not sustainable. After rushing for a distance, it would soon slow down.
As long as they know the direction, it won't be easy for the big lizard to escape from their pursuit. The worst that can happen is that it will just take some more effort.
However, before Li Ce could finish this thought, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance. The leader was the soldier who had followed Li Ce's order and galloped away after his horse lost control, and no one knew where he was running.
Not only did he find them back, he even brought their old friends, the Centaurs! To some extent, this guy really did a great job.
Looking at the big lizard that had been shot into a hedgehog, needless to say, the Centaurs led by Drogo immediately started to cooperate.
After several rounds of consumption, accompanied by a loud bang of a heavy object falling to the ground, the big lizard's burly body fell heavily to the ground. It seemed that it had finally reached its limit!
