Chapter 497 Grass
Driven by an invisible force, the skeletons in the rainforest that were easily beaten to pieces or even broken by the dragoons quickly gathered together, making a "crackling" sound, as if their limbs were twitching, and they stood up while twisting their bodies.
In order to be able to grasp the latest intelligence on the battlefield at any time, Soros naturally found a good place for himself. This also allowed him to notice the actions of the skeleton soldiers at the first time, and then his face changed suddenly.
His tactical mind as a commander quickly made him realize that he might be naive.
These skeleton soldiers are really fragile and easy to fight, but definitely not easy to deal with!
The skeleton soldiers who were pulled back to life by Zhou Xu's mantra rushed to the chaotic battlefield at the fastest speed, making the battle even more chaotic.
Once a melee breaks out, it will be difficult to separate the two sides.
This kind of scene where the two armies were fighting directly in a mess did indeed limit Qiansui's performance, making it gradually unable to move freely, unless it ignored the lives of its own people and started killing indiscriminately.
Having obtained the result he wanted, Soros breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly shifted his attention from Qiansui to the skeleton soldiers who had come back to life.
As of now, considering that the skeleton soldiers may be able to "resurrect" continuously, these skeleton soldiers have undoubtedly become a more troublesome existence.
The coordination and cooperation between the Skeleton Unit and the Sword and Shield Unit does not require much tacit understanding. The whole process can basically be summarized as the Skeleton Soldiers entangle the enemy regardless of the consequences and affect the enemy's actions, and then the Sword and Shield Soldiers seize the opportunity to chop down the opponent with one sword. It is so simple and crude.
Although the chaotic battle restricted Qiansui, it liberated the coordination and cooperation between the skeleton soldiers and the sword and shield soldiers, bringing them another level of advantage.
After the Battle of the Plains, the Lizardmen were already at a disadvantage in terms of military strength, but the addition of the Skeleton Army and Qiansui suddenly expanded the advantage of their Great Zhou troops.
Despite having the advantage of the rainforest environment, the Lizardmen were about to collapse in the face of the coordinated efforts of the Skeleton Army and the Sword and Shield Army. Right now, they were relying entirely on the Dragoon Cavalry to hold on.
It has to be said that the cavalry units that can fight flexibly in such a complex environment can actually have a bit of a dimensionality reduction attack against the infantry armed with short weapons.
Unfortunately, the skeleton soldiers are not afraid of death at all, and they will attack you without any care when they get the chance.
Even if it was the Speed Dragon Cavalry, once they were completely entangled by the Skeleton Soldiers, they would eventually be hacked to death by the sword and shield soldiers of the Great Zhou.
Originally, if the blue lizard sword and shield soldiers and the green lizard infantry could support and cover them, the situation could be held up.
But unfortunately, their Lizardman infantry are unable to take care of themselves at the moment.
This meant that the Speed Dragon Riders, who had lost their output environment, were forced to engage in guerrilla warfare in the chaos. They would move to one place, fight once, and then move on immediately. They did not dare to stay any longer for fear of being entangled by the Skeleton Soldiers.
This style of play fully utilizes their advantages of flexibility and agility.
The advantage is that the troops of the Great Zhou can basically do nothing to them.
But on the other hand, the disadvantage is that by running around like this, their own efficiency in killing the enemies is greatly reduced.
Soros, who was observing the situation in the dark, frowned.
If he was completely unaware of the fact that the skeleton soldiers could be resurrected from the dead, and that was unknown information, then he had a rough idea of the strength of the sword and shield soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty through the previous battle in the rain forest.
However, the problem now is that the performance of those sword and shield soldiers in this battle far surpassed that of before!
If the previous embarrassing retreat was not an act, then their improvement during this period was too obvious! This was also one of the main reasons why their Lizardmen troops were in such a bad situation at the moment.
Looking at the area where chaos broke out, the more Soros thought about it, the more his brows furrowed.
[The infantry's combat power is probably hopeless, the breakthrough point must be the dragoons...]
Just as Soros was thinking about how to use the velociraptors to change the current situation, a lizardman ran over in a panic.
"No, it's bad, Master Soros!"
Hearing the noise here, Soros' already bad mood suddenly became irritable.
"What happened?!"
"That, that beast..."
The moment Soros heard that word, his expression changed.
At the same time, his eyes quickly swept across the battlefield.
"Damn it! That extraordinary creature is gone!"
After the chaos broke out, Chitose's threat began to plummet. As a commander, Soros had too many things to take care of, and it was impossible for him to focus on Chitose all the time.
At this moment, Soros wished he could make the lizard man speak clearly.
But the lizard man had rushed all the way here and was so exhausted that he was out of breath. In addition, he was too nervous and stuttered the whole time, which made Soros furious.
The reason in his heart made Soros keep telling himself to stay calm. If he lost his temper at this time, the other party would only stutter more, and the more unclear his words became, the more time he would waste.
"That beast rushed into our front-line camp and caused a great disturbance. Now it is heading towards the tribe's territory!"
"Grass!"
It doesn't matter if we just rush into their front-line camp. There is nothing in their front-line camp anyway. The most we will have to spend more time cleaning up after the war.
But if he went towards the tribe's land, it would be a big trouble! In order to defend the rainforest defense line, he even pulled the temple guards over. How could there be garrison troops in the tribe's land? The complex rainforest environment made it difficult for outsiders to find the tribe's land located deep in the rainforest.
But judging from the fact that the extraordinary creature was able to find their front-line camp, it was not difficult to see that the other party had keen senses.
Assuming that the other party has a super strong sense of smell, there is a chance that they can find the location of the tribe through the smell they leave along the way during their daily movement.
Faced with this situation, Soros dare not gamble, he cannot afford it!
"Send the signal and let the troops retreat, quickly!"
If we want to urgently support the tribe, we will definitely need the raptors. Once the raptors leave, won’t the remaining infantrymen who stay here be waiting to die?
It would be better to just retreat directly, at least some of the troops can be preserved.
The signal was sent, and the Lizardman troops, who had no idea what was happening, followed the order and retreated quickly.
Of course, the Great Zhou army led by Zhou Chongshan would not let them go just like that, and immediately launched an all-out pursuit to expand the results of the battle.
This forced Soros to command the velociraptors to carry out the rearguard mission. Later, relying on their familiarity with the rainforest environment and their own flexibility, they finally managed to escape the pursuit of the Great Zhou troops.
Then he gathered his troops and rushed towards the clan’s territory as quickly as possible!
