Chapter 453: Shield Dragon Advance
The situation was urgent, and the news was sent to Li Ce as quickly as possible. After hearing it, Li Ce's face changed suddenly.
There are four giant beasts like that?!
Holding his breath, Li Ce's mind was working rapidly.
[If there were already four of these giant lizardmen, then it would be impossible for them to send out only one at that time. The extra three were not here at the beginning.]
[In other words, they were transferred from other places.]
[Could it be the battlefield where they fought against the ratmen? ]
Thinking of this, Li Ce's expression suddenly became more solemn.
[Based on previous intelligence, the battle between the Lizardmen and the Ratmen should have been very intense. Logically, the Lizardmen should not have had the spare strength to mobilize troops back. But now that the troops have been mobilized back, that means...]
[The Rat Man was defeated?! ]
As his thoughts raced, Li Ce's heart skipped a beat when he came to this conclusion.
This result is not good news for them no matter how they think about it.
But Li Ce obviously didn't have the mood to dwell on this issue. The most urgent thing now was to quickly think of how to deal with the threat in front of him! The first order he gave was...
"Pass the order down and let the logistics troops take the supplies away."
When he faced these big guys for the first time, he was somewhat inexperienced. But now that he has experience, although these four big guys look huge, in fact, considering their mobility efficiency, as long as the logistics troops take the supplies and move, those big guys basically can't catch up with them.
In this way, they could easily avoid the loss of supplies, and the most that would happen would be to razing their camp to the ground.
Anyway, it’s not the first time. Regarding this situation, Li Ce has a bit of a bad mentality.
He was just about to start, but as his mind raced, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
This wave of Lizardmen has made such a big fuss, what if they don't leave after flattening their camp?
After all, this area was originally snatched by them from the Lizardmen. It was precisely because they occupied this area that the follow-up troops of their Great Zhou could safely pass through the energy channel and reach this world.
Once this area is taken back by the Lizardmen, we will be in trouble!
Thinking of this, Li Ce knew that his plan to give up could be put on hold.
The horn sounded and the cavalry troops were quickly mobilized, along with the expanded crossbow troops.
Including the three-bow crossbow that was delivered previously, the crossbow unit now officially has its seventh crossbow squad.
Originally, they thought that the crossbow troops were more powerful now, and when they met the big guy that had destroyed their front-line camp before, they would definitely be defeated.
Now, they have come with their families, a total of four of them, which makes the crossbow troops feel at a loss as to what to do.
Moving nearby, with the blessing from their king, Li Ce could see the other side's actions relatively clearly even while maintaining a sufficiently safe distance.
It has to be said that just one giant beast like the Ankylosaurus can bring a very strong sense of oppression to people. Now the opponent has directly sent out four of them. While clearly showing the overall strength gap between the two sides, it also makes Li Ce feel a tingling sensation on his scalp.
Li Ce slowly exhaled a long breath, adjusted his mood, and then turned his attention to the four armored dragons again.
The formation of these four armored dragons is shaped like a diamond.
Judging from their appearance alone, although these four armored dragons look almost the same, Li Ce still recognized the armored dragon that had been attacked by their crossbow troops before.
Although the other three armored dragons were also covered in scars and their shells were extremely mottled, the wounds left by the giant crossbow arrows were still relatively easy to identify.
After confirming this, Li Ce looked at the armored dragon following behind him while sorting out useful information in his mind.
[At the time, its outer shell should have been almost broken, but now it is back. This means that even if the shells of these giants are destroyed, they can grow back.]
This is obviously not good news for them.
[Looking at this formation, it's obvious that the three big guys in the front are arranged to help the one at the back block attacks. Is it because the carapace of the one at the back hasn't fully grown yet? ]
Li Ce felt that the actual situation should be similar to what he had guessed.
Considering the strength of the Ankylosaurus's shell, it would be a bit abnormal if it could completely grow back in such a short time after being destroyed.
Just as Li Ce was thinking this, his sharp eyesight allowed him to vaguely see that there seemed to be a figure swaying in the diamond formation of the armored dragons.
After a closer look, Li Ce immediately confirmed...
"It's the Lizardmen's army! Those four big guys surrounded the Lizardmen's army and protected them as they moved!"
It's different from when there was only one Scutosaurus.
Considering the flexibility and speed of the Ankylosaur itself, if there is only one of them, it has basically no protection or cover capabilities.
But once the number of Ankylosaurs increases to four, they can choose to use their huge bodies to protect the Lizardman troops in the middle and move!
At the same time, this move by the opponent also made Li Ce completely certain that the Lizardmen were definitely not just planning to wipe out their front-line camps, they wanted to take back the plains area that had been lost before!
This concerns the entire strategic plan of their Great Zhou. How could Li Ce just return the plain area that he had already taken?
After the signal was sent, there was no need to wait for the opposing armored dragon to move outside their front-line camp before taking action. Li Ce directly signaled the crossbow troops to enter the field and launch a concentrated fire attack on the armored dragon that fell behind from the flank area.
With a dull whistling sound, seven giant crossbow arrows shot out and hit the body of the armored dragon at the rear one after another. The powerful force broke the opponent's shell on the spot and sent the entire metal arrow head into the opponent's flesh and blood.
"It's true! The armored carapace of this armored dragon hasn't fully grown yet, and it's still quite fragile!"
Li Ce, who saw this, showed obvious joy on his face.
However, before he could be happy for a while, the formation of the opposing armored dragon changed. The armored dragon that was originally walking in front slowed down and placed its body in front of the other armored dragon.
At the same time, the Shield Ankylosaur whose shell had not yet fully grown had already moved to the other side of the diamond formation.
If the crossbow troops want to attack it again, they will have to make a big circle and go around to the other side...
