Chapter 1052 Beast rush? I will just climb up the mountain
"What is this sound?"
A dozen patrolling Shu soldiers drew out their long knives and looked into the depths of the swamp with surprise. But at this moment, a small group of Shu soldiers who were patrolling in front suddenly ran out in a hurry.
"Let's go, colleagues, leave this place quickly!"
"What...no, it's a beast rush!"
The two teams of men and horses quickly merged into one team, without any delay, and immediately retreated. The Southern Barbarians' beast charge has been practiced since ancient times. They mixed various wild beasts into them, and then used the method of driving the beasts to drive them behind, chasing them away.
to the enemy's direction.
"Quickly, report to the lord, the tiger barbarian beast is coming!"
…
Xu Mu's face was silent. He was not surprised when he heard "Beast Rush". Fei Lian had already brought Jiao Wei's information over.
But this beast charge is actually not very clever. There are at least three ways to solve it.
"My lord, wild beasts in the wilderness are definitely afraid of fire. But it's rainy weather now, so we can't use fire. How can we drive them away? If we wait for the beasts to attack, I'm afraid the army will suffer heavy losses."
"Damn it, God knows how those tiger barbarians can use fire to drive away beasts." Meng Huo gritted his teeth, his face full of nervousness.
"Why are we driving them back?" Xu Mu smiled. He had already made preparations, and the patrol troops placed outside were just to continue to attract attention.
"My lord, do you have a solution?"
"What kind of solution is needed?" Xu Mu shook his head. When he first discussed with Xiaoqiao Fu, he was worried about these miasma beasts, so he never went too deep. It's just that Meng Huo defeated Pei Fu yesterday and took the opportunity to kill a large number of them.
.
The way to avoid the charging beast is actually very simple...just climb back up the mountain. The left and right are not far apart. The army has always been camped under the mountains.
Moreover, the wild beasts in the swamp, mostly crocodiles and pythons, are unable to climb up. Who knows... they can even kill them in one round.
"Then Mr. Pei, after thinking about it for several days, came up with this idea?" Xu Mu sneered, "Meng Huo, go and send an order to the whole army to go back to the mountain first to avoid the charging beast! Wait for my order and then launch a counterattack!"
"
"Go back, go back to the Nanlin Mountains?" Meng Huo was startled.
"Isn't that right? It's safe when you go up the mountain."
Under this situation, Xu Mu would not be stupid enough to give orders such as preferring death to retreat. As long as the tiger barbarian's killing plan is broken, the next step will be a counterattack that has been brewing for a long time.
"My lord has ordered that the three armies set off immediately and return to the Nanlin Mountains!"
…
"We're here, we're almost there!" Following behind Zhu Chong, Pei Fu's face became extremely ecstatic. He could even imagine the panic of those Shu people.
"It happens to be raining, so you can't use fire to drive away animals. Xu Thief, and Meng Huo Dogman, you two just wait to die!"
In front of the beast charge, Suodang was naked and smeared with witch soup, looking extremely brave. Those crocodiles, pythons, and even marsh wasps were all driven forward by him.
The more than two hundred selected tiger warriors formed a long wall formation at the back, and they all charged at the beasts, driving them faster and faster.
"Haha, Thief Xu, let's see how you survive this time!" Standing in the rain and among the crocodiles, Suodang raised his head and laughed. He only thought that this time he was really going to succeed.
"I told you earlier, don't trust anyone from the Central Plains. There are also unparalleled wise men in our tiger barbarian camp——"
Unfortunately, before Suodang could say another word, a piece of information came back from in front of them, which made them dumbfounded.
"What, what did you say?" Suodang looked in disbelief, "The Shu people have retreated to the Nanlin Mountains? But I clearly saw the patrolling Shu people and those camps before!"
"Old Chief, the Shu patrols have all disappeared. There are no people in the camps either... They have all retreated back to the mountains."
"Damn it...this thief Xu dared to attack our tiger barbarian tribe with a large army, but at this time, he ran away like a dog!"
"Old Chief, the beast has charged! It's about to rush under the Nanlin Mountains!"
Pei Fu, who was at the rear, also got the news and was extremely shocked. He didn't understand that it was a great plan, but it was completely resolved by that Xu thief easily.
The beast rushed up and was blocked by the mountains, fearing that it would rush back.
Pei Fu raised his head and shouted, not daring to think any more. In order to cooperate with the beast charge, this time, he even asked the old and weak tiger barbarians to follow him on the battlefield. He only thought that after the beast charge, he would be able to defeat the Shu people and recapture
Nanlin Mountains. But I never thought that the Shu people did not fight, but ran up the mountain.
"What kind of King of Shu is this Thief Xu... Hurry, send an order to Suodang, so that he can't be careless and continue to drive the beasts away. Wait for me to disperse the army behind you."
The beast's charge will backfire, and I'm afraid that the entire tiger barbarian army will be swept to pieces.
…
"Raise the bow -" Han Jiu drew out his long knife, commanded the foot-bow battalion on the mountain, and kept shooting at the approaching beasts. Waves of arrows rained down from above, shooting down swamp crocodiles one after another from time to time.
Below, the white belly turned over and let out a shrill scream.
"My lord has ordered us to rely on the strength of the mountain to drive the beast back!"
"Prepare the catapult!"
Not long after, the roaring catapults also joined the battlefield and smashed into the densely packed beasts at the foot of the mountain.
…
"You are not allowed to retreat, Suo Dang, you are not allowed to retreat!" Pei Fu came up from behind, his eyes full of fear, "If you hold on for a while longer, I have sent someone to pass the order and prepare to disperse the army. If you retreat at this time... I
The tiger barbarian tribe is about to end!"
"My Lord... the medicine of Wu Tang is only effective for two hours. Please hurry up, Lord."
"Damn it, are you the number one wise man among the tiger barbarians?" Pei Fu resisted his intention to kill and had to add a sentence in order to justify himself.
"I have seen before that there are big problems with your method of driving away beasts. It's my fault that I trust you too much! Suodang, if you can't hold on, I will slaughter your entire tribe!"
"Quick, continue to send orders, the army will disperse immediately!"
In front, wherever you look, there are waves of beasts rushing forward crazily. Many of them were shot dead on the spot by the Shu people. After all, there were also many swamp beasts who were afraid. Here and there, there were beasts.
He rushed back, turned around, and ran as fast as he could.
A group of tiger barbarians in front ran a few steps in fear and were overtaken by two groups of swamp crocodiles. After knocking them down, they pounced on them madly and bit them.
In fact, some of the more than two hundred beast-driving warriors previously selected began to be afraid, or were not physically strong enough to drive away the beasts anymore.
Roar--
A huge swamp crocodile, probably smelling the scent of blood, chased after a fleeing beast-dweller, threw it down, and then opened its bloody mouth and bit it.
The shrill screams of pain suddenly echoed throughout the surrounding area.
At this time, Suodang was no longer as high-spirited as before. He trembled and kept rushing towards the beasts that were coming back, trying his best to drive them back.
But he understood that the Shu people on the mountain were frantically killing Beast Chong. Soon, Beast Chong would definitely attack back.
Suodang turned pale for a moment.
"Quick, come with me to drive away the beasts. If not, first go to the west of the swamp and drive away——"
Before Suodang could finish what he said, another swamp crocodile crawled over not far from him, biting the neck of another beast-driving tiger warrior, and turned around several times. After a while,
The head of the tiger barbarian warrior was suddenly cut off and rolled into the mud.
