Chapter 483 Night Raid
Under the cover of night, the most deadly hunter on this plain has already set out. The thousand-year-old roar forms a circle of sound waves visible to the naked eye, shaking the velociraptors on the opposite side so much that their legs go weak and they wish they could just turn around and run away.
"spread!"
Steadying their velociraptors, the velociraptor cavalry led by Gruul scattered like birds and beasts, making it clear that they had no intention of engaging in a head-on confrontation with Qiansui. Their entire purpose was just to contain him.
Obviously, after calming down, they have figured out how to deal with a strategic unit like Chitose! In fact, Chitose, who is now about the size of a small car, is on the same level as the giant lizards of the Lizardmen in terms of size.
Originally, the Lizardmen could have sent giant lizards to besiege Qiansui.
Unfortunately, the Great Zhou army had already grasped the weakness of the monitor lizards, and this fundamental problem could not be solved. No matter how many monitor lizards they sent out, it would be in vain.
Instead of wasting them here, it would be better to transfer them all to the southern battlefield to participate in the war with the ratmen.
On the other hand, Soros chose to use the cavalry to contain the enemy, buying them time to defeat the main force of the Great Zhou Dynasty and seal the victory! During this period, shouldering the task of covering the retreat of the main force, Diak and Drogo led the Centaurs to quickly take action, using the cavalry shooting tactics to harass and contain the attacking velociraptors.
"Lord Soros, the large army on the opposite side seems to be retreating!"
The latest intelligence from the front line was quickly delivered to Soros.
Soros was not surprised at all by this situation.
Just as they launched the attack at night in order to take advantage of their own strengths, the other side certainly would not be willing to engage in a large-scale war with them at this time.
If there is still a camp to defend in the rear, appropriate retreat is itself a normal tactical action.
"Pass on my order, have the four armored dragons move out and move directly to the rear camp opposite!"
The movement efficiency of the Ankylosaurus is indeed not high, but it will definitely arrive before dawn.
Under this premise, Soros is not in a hurry to advance the large forces.
The time is at your fingertips, and with the Shield-Ankylosaurus around, it would definitely be safer to let the Shield-Ankylosaurus take the lead.
Thinking of this, Soros spoke again...
"Let the infantry troops follow the armored dragon formation and advance. Let the velociraptors hunt the beast and the centaurs!"
Their reinforcements came back in three batches. The first batch to arrive was the infantry. After all, Soros had to fight a defensive battle around the rainforest at that time, and the infantry was the core. The second and third batches that arrived were the raptors.
The second batch of Speed Dragon Cavalry arrived three days before the Great Zhou infantry launched the offensive and participated in the interception operation at that time.
The third group of velociraptors that arrived was a much larger force. They had just arrived the day before yesterday and were now being thrown into battle by Soros.
Apart from the casualties in the rain forest, he now had a total of 427 swift dragon cavalry! Compared with Zhou Xu's cavalry, the advantage was overwhelming! With this amount of troops, it was definitely not a simple matter to hunt down Qiansui and the Centaurs.
At this moment, seeing a large number of dragoons approaching, the Centaurs led by Drogo and Diack quickly distanced themselves, fearing that they would be trapped in the encirclement of the opposite side.
During this period, Qiansui relied on his strong individual strength and was quite rampant. He took the initiative to meet them and pounced on them continuously! Qiansui's attack force was quite strong. The earth and stone houses in their village, Qiansui pounced on them with explosive force and smashed the walls directly.
If this force is used to kill the dragoons, basically whoever it attacks will be killed.
However, the lizardmen on the opposite side did not care about the life or death of the two or three dragoons at all. When they saw Qiansui rushing towards them, they immediately blew the signal, formed an encirclement, and surrounded Qiansui in three layers inside and outside, trying to hunt him down.
During this process, Drogo and Diack saw the situation from a distance and subconsciously planned to rush over to support, but they were forced to retreat by a group of dragoons.
The enemy had a large number of troops, so it was easy for the Lizardmen to carry out a split-force operation like this.
Looking at the situation on the opposite side, the gap in troop strength between the two sides was too great at this stage. Although they still had the means of breaking out through "war charge", Diak did not dare to lead his Centaurs to charge head-on.
After all, in the previous battles, their Centaur tribe had already paid a considerable price in casualties. Their task at this stage was only to contain the enemy and buy time for their own large forces to retreat. There was no need for a head-on charge.
As the one being surrounded, should we say that he was too confident in his own strength? Chitose did not show any sign of nervousness throughout the whole process.
However, looking at the velociraptors circling around him, Chitose himself probably realized what the other party wanted to do.
Then, as usual, it let out a roar to shock the other side, and then it burst into speed, rushing and killing its way through the blockade of the dragoons, trying to break out.
The velociraptors, who had already prepared for the response, certainly did not intend to let it get away easily. They could not stop Qiansui's breakout, but they could continue to counterattack, creating layer after layer of encirclement.
They have a strong military force and are now directly competing with Qiansui in terms of consumption.
No matter how strong Qiansui is, it is still just an individual. Once it is exhausted, that is the time for it to die!
Qiansui basically grew up safely under Zhou Xu's protection. Although he lacks the experience of real life-and-death battles, he has a smart brain that is not inferior to many humans.
At this moment, Qiansui had already realized the other party's purpose, so he no longer continued to deal with these velociraptors.
Seeing an opportunity, it burst out again, and then showed a speed even faster than before, directly breaking through the encirclement of the dragoons.
The Raptors who were carrying out a counterattack in a more peripheral position at the time were unable to form an encirclement in time due to Chitose's sudden burst of acceleration. Chitose seized this opportunity and successfully broke through.
Afterwards, although Qiansui did not run away directly, the Lizardmen knew that after experiencing this incident, the beast had become more cautious, and it would probably not be so easy for them to catch such an opportunity again.
At the same time, the large army led by Zhou Xu withdrew to the garrison camp overnight.
This plain area is not big, but also not small. There was such a big commotion over at the front-line camp that it was impossible not to notice it.
Long before they arrived, the garrison camp had already entered a combat state, which was just perfect for Zhou Xu.
Quickly start further deployment and prepare to "welcome" the night attack from the Lizardmen!
