Chapter two hundred and seventy-two lead beasts
The Dynasty army changed its combat strategy, increased its combat force, and advanced layer by layer in the dark forest. The flag battalions echoed each other and supported each other, forming a net of heaven and earth, constantly advancing deep into the forest, trying to force out the Nanchuan Army.
Wishes are beautiful, but the facts are cruel. The Nanchuan Army, which was still active a few days ago, suddenly disappeared from the sight of the Dynasty army, and various sneak attacks came to an abrupt end. It seemed that such an army had never appeared.
The generals of the dynasty command were at a loss. Their clenched iron fists hit the air, making them extremely uncomfortable and filled with depression.
Chief of staff Wu Changfeng even suspected that the Nanchuan Army had crossed the dark forest and retreated to the Nanchuan Province. Otherwise, there would be no trace of the Nanchuan Army in the forest.
Commander Lan Yu was also unable to understand the specific situation of the Nanchuan Army at this moment. It was possible to withdraw from the Nanchuan Province through the dark forest, so he sought help from the dynasty's intelligence agency, the Untang, but the intelligence provided by the Untang was: no rebels returned to the Nanchuan Province from the dark forest.
"Are all the rebels dead in the forest?" Some aides speculated that after all, there were countless powerful beasts and birds of prey in the depths of the dark forest. If the rebels were unlucky and broke into the beast's nest, they deserved their luck.
"As far as I know, there are quite a few rebels, and even if they encounter a group of ferocious beasts, they will not be wiped out. Why have our frontline soldiers not discovered anything in these days?" Someone refuted this view.
"We didn't find out if the rebels had broken through a gap."
Hearing such speculation, Commander Lan Yu and a group of staff hurriedly opened the map again, looking for this path that could break through their encirclement and retreat.
However, after repeated consideration and deduction, it was finally denied that there was such a blind spot for the rebels to retreat quietly. On the map, more than 300,000 troops from the three central army units of the Dynasty Army formed a wall of iron in three directions. The rebels had no reason to escape silently and escape from the forest.
Besides, behind the Central Army, there are a large number of cavalry troops [31 Novel Network Update Fast] The provincial garrison troops have wandered around, and they have not found anything, which can only explain one problem, that is, the Nanchuan Army is still in the forest, and they have not found it, but they have just hid in the depths of the forest, and they have not found it.
"The rebels must still be in the forest. Now they are hiding and must be planning a breakthrough." Commander Lan Yu finally made a conclusion.
Lan Yu immediately issued a harsh order: "Tell all legions to be careful about the rebels' breakthrough. If anyone lets the rebels go, whoever I want will have the head!"
The commanders of the various legions who received the order also repeated the orders to reach the various legions: "Whoever the rebels broke through the defense zone will be prepared to come and see you!"
The orders were issued one by one, and in the end every soldier had to be extremely alert, because once the rebels ran away, their heads were gone, so the search was more carefully.
Hundreds of thousands of dynasty troops entered the calm forest, countless plants and trees were cut down, and the roads were opened up. The forest suddenly became extremely noisy. Carpet-style search caused frightened animals to flee to the depths of the forest, compressing the living space of the moving people.
The inherent territory of many ferocious beasts was occupied by the dynasty army. The ferocious beasts were either killed or fled deep into the forest. A bloody storm broke out in the entire forest, and the ferocious beasts that lost their territory became even more manic.
The dynasty army used the flag battalion as combat units and advanced forward in a scattered line. Wherever they passed, it was in a mess, and all kinds of precious herbs and precious animals and plants were affected one after another.
Even the bravest hunters and adventurers never dared to go deep into the dark forest alone for four hundred miles, because there was almost a forbidden area, with powerful ferocious beasts entrenched.
But this time, the Dynasty army entered the forest with 300,000 people, and the momentum was huge. Many powerful beasts became the food they mentioned.
Deep in the forest, in a huge nest, a giant beast like a hill was resting, and there were white bones scattered around the nest, all of which were the bones of some ferocious beasts. Fire Cloud Beasts were extremely powerful and extremely fierce. They were definitely the top king among ferocious beasts.
The Fire Cloud Beast is its territory for dozens of miles around, and no animal dares to break in, so it is extremely quiet and like a dead place. However, now several Nanchuan soldiers wearing black armor are approaching carefully.
"Is there really a Fire Cloud Beast here?" Lin Chuan asked a nervous warrior as he walked.
The warrior's face was tense and he replied in a low voice: "I heard from my grandfather that there are dozens of powerful ferocious beasts living in this dark forest. This area should be the territory of the Fire Cloud Beast."
Lin Chuan also noticed that the air around him was filled with a rotten aura. There was not even a bird outside the sound of the wind in Sasha. It was strangely silent, making people feel silence.
"General, there is something in front of you." A quick scout soldier ran back from the front and reported and discovered the situation.
The ground was covered with white bones, covering a mile of land. The huge skeleton of an unknown ferocious beast that was dozens of meters long was broken from it, with clear scratches on it, which was obviously the work of another powerful ferocious beast.
"Apart from Fire Cloud Beast, I think no ferocious beast can be so powerful." The warrior leading the way said with lingering fear.
"Everyone be alert!" Lin Chuan also felt the dangerous aura emitted from the air, which made his hair stand coldly.
This time, Lin Chuan and his team entered the depths of the forest to find the Fire Cloud Beast, which was to deal with the dynasty army that was pressing step by step.
The huge ancient tree was broken in the middle, and the famous beast was eaten to the point of only the skeleton. The more Lin Chuan and the others moved forward, the more shocked he was. What kind of monster was this Fire Cloud Beast? It was so powerful.
However, they soon discovered the true face of the Fire Cloud Beast. The body was lying like a hill and resting in the nest. The fiery red armor was emitting a hot breath like magma. It was hard and full of heavy and bold, and its tail was quietly on its body.
The Fire Cloud Beast is extremely ugly. Lin Chuan had never seen such an ugly monster. His huge fangs, ugly faces, and the fishy smell that hit him makes Lin Chuan unable to help vomit.
"Operation!" Lin Chuan made a gesture to the soldiers behind him. Everyone hurriedly took off the powder from the package and walked around.
Soon, the territory around the Fire Cloud Beast was covered with yellow powder, and when it left the west, there was a spicy smell in the air.
This is a beast-repellent powder commonly used by hunters. The spicy taste makes wild beasts often avoid it.
After doing all this, Lin Chuan and the others quietly retreated to the safe area, took out crossbow arrows and attacked the Fire Cloud Beast!
"Swish swish!" The roaring crossbow arrow rushed straight to the body of the Fire Cloud Beast, but it did not cause any damage to the Fire Cloud Beast except for the sound of a jingling golden iron crossing.
The Fire Cloud Beast, which was resting, was awakened. The huge blood-red eyeballs saw several weak humans attacking him. When they smelled the air around them, they were furious and roared, stood up from the nest. Suddenly, a huge shadow enveloped Lin Chuan and the others.
"Run!" Lin Chuan shouted and ran towards the way he came.
