Chapter 80 Strategies for Folding Space
Qu Mao and Su Yan led 100 third-tier princess guards to have lunch on the mountainside in the north of Yi Village. After resting for an hour, Qu Mao stood up and was about to walk towards the entrance of the folding space.
Su Yan grabbed Qu Mao and said, "My lord, let the soldiers advance. After all, you don't focus on combat power."
Qu Mao nodded, turned to Su Buqing and said, "Su Buqing, arrange for the soldiers to enter the combat area."
The entrance to the folding space between the two trees is very narrow, less than one meter wide, and only one person can enter at a time.
Su Buqing pointed to a team leader and gave an order: "Captain Liu Xue, lead your team forward."
Squad leader Liu Xue didn't say anything, turned around and gestured to his team members, and then he was the first to walk between the two trees. When Liu Xue's figure passed between the two trees, he disappeared instantly.
The other nine third-tier princess guards of Liu Xue's team entered this folding space one by one at a very fast speed.
Originally, Su Yan wanted more princess guards to enter the folding space first, but Qu Mao couldn't help but step over the entrance of the folding space between the two trees.
Entering the folded space, a black iron treasure chest was printed on Qu Mao's eyelids first, followed by ten princess guards bowing their waists and holding crossbows in a semicircular formation.
Putting the black iron treasure chest into the backpack without saying a word, Su Yan also entered the folding space at this time.
Just after Qu Mao told Su Yan that he had harvested a black iron treasure chest, Liu Xue had already shouted: "Everyone is on alert, the enemy is attacking!"
Fortunately, following Su Yan's footsteps, more and more third-tier princess guards rushed into the folding space, and the semi-circular defensive circle built by the first team gradually expanded, eventually turning into two straight lines.
Qu Mao looked intently, and saw countless zero-level monster goblins and first-level monster kobolds rushing towards us about 300 meters away.
Qu Mao shouted: "Speed forward, speed to set up the formation..."
Su Buqing, who had already come in, calmly drew out the saber and stood in the first row. Glancing at the charging monsters, he said loudly: "The front row of crossbows is equipped with a saber for vigilance; the rear row of crossbows is equipped with an arm crossbow!"
The third-tier princess guard is equipped with a long-range arm crossbow and a melee sword, which can be switched freely in the soldier equipment column. Although the third-tier princess guards are just ordinary third-tier soldiers, the third-tier princess guards prepared by Sunan have indeed been trained repeatedly by Sunan for several years, and it is not an exaggeration to call them elite.
When the group of monsters charged 200 meters away from the formation of the third-tier princess guards against the enemy, all 100 third-tier princess guards had entered, and even Jia Sixie and Maffei Trani also brought in all the leaders who served as auxiliary soldiers. up.
The goblin and kobold monsters charged to the distance of only 50 meters to meet the enemy. Standing behind two rows of third-tier princess guards, Qu Mao could clearly see the ferocious expressions of these monsters.
Although I have seen this kind of scene in the film and television works of another world, but this time it is immersive after all, Qu Mao felt a little flustered, and hurriedly shouted: "Cum, shoot! Why don't you all shoot?"
The third-tier princess guards were unmoved, and still maintained a formation of full vigilance.
It was not until the zero-level monster goblins and the first-level monster kobolds continued to rush to only 30 meters away that Su Buqing raised his saber and shouted continuously: "Shoot directly from the back row! Be on guard in the front row!"
"Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!" The sound of crossbow arrows piercing the air one after another, and countless goblins and kobolds were hit by a crossbow arrow that penetrated the body of their companions in front of them, staggering to the ground.
The group of monsters 30 meters away were shot with broken limbs and bleeding, but Su Buqing still calmly gave the order: "Shoot directly from the front row! Slash the saber from the back row and prepare to meet the enemy!"
"Xu! Xu! XU! XU!" There was another sound of crossbow arrows piercing the air one after another, and the charging goblins and kobolds had lost more than half of their casualties under the impact of two waves of crossbow arrows, floating in the air about one meter above the ground. Light clusters of explosives one by one.
According to Qu Mao's idea, he should rush up to pick up these explosives immediately, but the zero-level goblins and the first-level kobolds probably can't explode any good things, and there are dozens of goblins and The kobold hadn't been completely killed, so Qu Mao didn't rush up to pick up the explosives.
After two waves of crossbow arrows rained, Su Buqing ordered: "Princess Guard, charge!"
100 princess guard soldiers drew their sabers one after another, lined up in a neat square formation under the leadership of their respective captains, and rushed towards the remaining dozens of kobolds and goblins.
Two consecutive waves of crossbow arrows not only killed a large number of goblins and kobolds, but also suppressed the momentum of the goblins and kobolds' charge.
Was rushed up and hacked by the third-tier princess guards, basically two or more third-tier princess guards surrounded a zero-level goblin or first-tier kobolds, the result was self-evident, the third-tier princess guards Nearly lossless and quick end to fight. The reason why it was almost undamaged was that one or two third-tier princess guards accidentally sprained their feet on the swamp when charging.
The entire folding space is less than two square kilometers, not particularly large, and it is a swampy terrain, with no vegetation on the surface that obscures the line of sight.
Except for the dark fog that makes people feel uncomfortable, there is nothing else. In less than ten minutes, the teams sent by Su Buqing came back one after another.
However, many of the princess guards who returned to their missions are now covered in mud all over their bodies. The swampy terrain is really disgusting, and they accidentally fell into the mud pit. Fortunately, no casualties were caused by the swampy terrain.
Su Buqing, who was reported by his subordinates, walked up to Qu Mao and said, "My lord, this place is not big, but there is a crystal mine stationed by lizardmen one kilometer in front of the left; about 700 meters in front of the right, there is a big werewolf. The stationed metal mine; there are also some zero-level and first-level monsters in other areas, and there are four groups of them; the main difficulty is that this space is full of swamps, it is very difficult to walk, and if you are not careful, you will get stuck in the mud inside.
Which side shall we attack first? "
Qu Mao asked: "How about the number of monsters?"
Su Buqing replied: "The total number of second-tier lizardmen stationed in the crystal mine is about 300, the total number of second-tier werewolves stationed in the metal mine is about 600, and the number of four monster groups ranges from 100 to 1,000.
If you attack two mines, be careful and you won't attract the attention of other monsters. "
Qu Mao asked: "The lizard people are remote?"
"Yes, my lord!" Su Buqing replied.
Qu Mao thought for a while, and said, "Let's destroy the big werewolf first, and we'll talk about conquering the metal mine."
Su Buqing immediately returned to gather the third-tier princess guards, and said: "Princess guards, the target is 700 meters in front of the right, and kill the metal mine stationed by the second-tier werewolf army."
It took about ten minutes, and Su Buqing led the large troops into the metal mine stationed by the second-tier werewolves about 100 meters away.
Qu Mao took out the bamboo in his backpack and handed it to Su Buqing, built some crude bamboo horses, and waited for the big werewolf to charge.
More than 600 Tier 2 big werewolves gathered together, putting quite a lot of pressure on Qu Mao.
While the werewolf was screaming and charging, Su Buqing didn't bring the werewolf closer to about 30 meters this time before attacking with arrow rain.
When the big werewolf had just started to charge and charged less than 10 meters, Su Buqing gave an order: "First row, throw! Second row get ready!"
The first row of 50 princess guard soldiers immediately raised the shooting angle of the arm crossbow to 45 degrees, and threw the crossbow arrows out. Maybe it's because the defense value of the second-tier big werewolf is higher, or maybe the accuracy of the projectile is not high, so the first wave of arrow rain did not do much damage to the big werewolf.
But Su Buqing's order did not stop: "Second row, throw! First row, load! ...First row, salvo! Second row, load! ...Second row, salvo! First row, load!… First row, volley! Second row, load! ... Second row, volley! First row, charge! All charge!"
Under Su Buqing's orderly order, one round of throwing and three rounds of volley were completed, and the third-tier princess guards drew their sabers again, and rushed to the vicinity of Zhujuma, preparing to meet the second-tier werewolf who had not been harvested by the arrow rain.
Fortunately, the continuous long-range strikes reduced the number of Tier 2 werewolves to just over 200, and the charging distance of about 100 meters caused the Tier 2 werewolves to lose nearly two-thirds of their strength.
Su Buqing took the lead and bravely moved forward with a saber in hand, and was the first to pounce on it. Basically, a third-tier princess guard warrior had to fight against two or more second-tier werewolves at the same time, and the battle was extremely bloody.
However, the third-tier princess guards were far superior to the second-tier werewolves in terms of strength and equipment, and the battle only lasted more than ten minutes, and even ended in less than twenty minutes.
In the process of hand-to-hand combat, the third-tier princess guards were not completely uninjured. About a dozen princess guards were hit by the knives or chain hammers of the second-tier werewolves during the battle, and more or less suffered some injuries. .
Qu Mao looked at his wounded princess guard warriors howling in pain, and couldn't help feeling a little regretful. If he hadn't sold all the essence of life in the market for gold coins, these wounded warriors would not have suffered so much. .
But now is not the time to regret it, Qu Mao said in a deep voice: "Su Yan, pack up the spoils.
Maffei Trani and Jia Sixie organized auxiliary soldiers to bandage the wounds of the wounded soldiers. "
Su Buqing walked up to Qu Mao and comforted Qu Mao: "My lord, they are all minor injuries, so don't worry about them. This kind of injury is already the best situation."
Qu Mao nodded and said, "Everyone, rest on the spot for five minutes, and then proceed to the crystal mine. The second-level lizardmen are stationed there, which are long-range attack units. The real test we face is there."
