On the surface, they were encircling the area for reinforcements, but they chose to set up an ambush halfway down the road.
Tu Hong was caught off guard.
Fortunately, there were five Chiyou warriors in the team as the backbone. Although they were at an absolute disadvantage in numbers, they could barely hold on, and reinforcements finally arrived at the critical moment.
Before Tang Jingren arrived, the blessings had already fallen far away.
Especially those who have fallen down have received extra care. As long as they are not dead, they should be able to save their lives after being covered by the blessed white light.
"It's the lord. The lord has led his troops to come for reinforcements!"
Tu Hong, who was in the middle of the command, had a flash of gloom on his face at first, then raised his arms and shouted.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
Reinforcements finally arrived, and the sword and shield soldiers' morale was immediately boosted.
"My lord is mighty!"
Tu Qiang, who was in the middle of a fight, killed a jackal with an ax and grinned.
"???"
The jackals who were fighting were stunned when faced with such changes. Their originally ferocious and proud faces suddenly changed colors.
There was panic and anxiety, and even more confusion.
"How could it be possible? Aren't they already out in force?"
The Jackal leader, who originally thought he was sure of victory, was at a loss when he saw this battle. He didn't know whether he should continue to kill the enemy or take the opportunity to break away from the contact and move first.
Before the jackal leader could think clearly, Tang Jing had already led his troops to cover up the attack from behind.
The word "quick" is used.
Fifty well-equipped sword and shield soldiers were enough to form a small battle formation, and they all came crushing together, creating an invisible and powerful deterrent force.
As if invincible.
Any jackals who stand in front of the battle formation will be hacked to death with random swords.
There is no reason to survive.
In the middle of the battlefield, seeing the reinforcements arriving, Tu Hong immediately commanded his troops to switch from defense to attack, and took the initiative to kill in the direction of the reinforcements, hoping to cooperate inside and outside.
The Chiyou warriors headed by Tu Qiang acted as the vanguard at this moment.
It’s simply a battle between gods and demons!
The jackals who had successfully set up an ambush were immediately attacked from both sides and suffered heavy losses.
The situation of the war can be said to have taken a turn for the worse.
In addition, jackals are not a race with a strong will to fight. What they like to do most is to defeat the small with more. Once their momentum is exhausted, they will be defeated immediately.
No longer able to organize an effective attack, we can only be passively beaten.
Facing a big melee, the jackal leader who was still confused didn't need to make a choice at this moment. He had no time to think about himself. How could he talk about an organization?
The scattered jackals all fought on their own.
Those jackals who were already on the edge of the battlefield and had not yet been affected saw their own defeat and had no intention of rescuing them. Instead, they began to quietly evacuate from the battlefield.
He doesn't care about the life or death of his companions at all.
The other jackals were not so lucky, they were almost surrounded and unable to escape.
One after another they fell to the sword and axe.
"Ouch, go to hell!!!"
Seeing his tribesmen fall one by one, the gnoll leader immediately fell into a violent state, his eyes were as red as blood, and he was even more ferocious than a wild beast.
Before losing his mind, he directed his troops towards Tang Jing who was hiding in the rear for reinforcements.
"Ouch!!!"
Affected by the leader's madness, all the jackals who were fighting had their eyes turned red.
All going crazy!
They subconsciously gathered around the leader and charged towards Tang Jing on the periphery regardless.
"Protect your lord!"
Tu Hong was the first to discover the intention of the jackal leader, and was shocked. He ignored the command and rushed to rescue him personally, but was blocked by jackals and wild wolves.
Couldn't escape for a while.
"Raise your shield and form an array!"
Tang Jing was not originally from Meng Lang. After giving the attack order to the sword and shield soldiers, he was still followed by five sword and shield soldiers as personal guards, never leaving his side.
He will not play with his personal safety.
"Die!!!"
The crazy jackal leader, as a third-level existence, is also a brave and invincible existence. Holding a giant axe, he is about to lead his troops to break through the obstruction of the sword and shield soldiers and kill them.
"Stand back!"
Upon seeing this, Tang Jing commanded the five sword and shield soldiers to retreat together.
"Ouch!!"
But at this moment, those jackals who had fled the battlefield before heard the leader's howling, and seemed to be inspired by the fierce aura in their bodies, they all turned back.
The target is also Tang Jing.
The cunning of the jackal was fully demonstrated at this moment.
Tang Jing was suddenly in danger and was in a dilemma. He could only ask five sword and shield soldiers to form a circular formation on the spot to protect him in the middle, hoping to hold on until reinforcements arrived.
"Ice Arrow!"
While waiting for reinforcements, Tang Jing did not sit back and wait for death, and frequently released ice arrow spells in order to slow down the attack rhythm of the jackal leader.
"Ouch!!!"
The jackal leader who was shot by the ice arrow was both manic and "calm". Under the blessing of layers of freezing effects, the boiling blood in his body actually had a tendency to cool down.
By the time he broke through the interception of the sword and shield soldiers, he had woken up from his mad state.
It is a forced restart.
Looking around again, there are only a few clansmen who can still fight.
The pursuers from behind were about to kill him.
"The wind is tight, pull!"
At the critical moment, the jackal leader made the most real choice and decided to leave Tang Jing.
It's important to save your life.
"Ouch??Woo???"
When the jackals who were coming from the outside saw this, they were stunned for a moment and then ran outside.
Not even a trace of hesitation.
"???"
Tang Jing, who was waiting for a fierce battle, was also confused at this moment, "What's going on? You ran away now?"
I have a new understanding of the bravery of jackals.
Little did I know.
It was the ice arrow he released that turned the tide.
"call!!"
When Tu Hong saw this in the distance, he also breathed a sigh of relief.
This time he led reinforcements. Because he was anxious to rescue his second brother Tu Gang, he lost due caution and led to an ambush in the woods. This was a big mistake.
If you still harm your Excellency because of this, you will never be able to redeem yourself.
"Sir, are you okay?" Tu Hong asked concernedly after killing the remaining jackals.
"I'm fine."
"Sir, I..." Tu Hong was about to apologize.
"If you don't talk about this, now is not the time to make a post-war summary."
Tang Jing waved his hand and directly ordered: "I will finish here. You immediately lead the Chiyou warriors to pursue the remaining jackals. You must kill the jackal leader and find the jackal lair."
He was still thinking about the disappearance of the Jackal leader.
"As you command!"
Tu Hong also knew that the opportunity to fight was fleeting and there was no time to reminisce about the past, so he immediately led four Chiyou warriors, including Tu Qiang, to pursue the direction in which the Jackal leader was fleeing.
The sword and shield soldiers marched slowly, but they were unable to pursue them.
There is no way to drive out the jackals.
After Tu Hong left, Tang Jing had no time to search for loot, but instead treated the wounded immediately. Thanks to blessings, not a single soldier was killed in this battle.
Soon after.
Tu Gang came in a hurry with the only remaining sword and shield soldier in the camp.
However, while the jackals set up an ambush halfway along the road, only a dozen wild wolves were left wandering around the outside of the camp. They were soon spotted by Tu Gang and broke out, hoping to come and give a warning.
But in the end it was still a step too late.
“Just in time!”
Tang Jing was not polite and ordered again, "You will now lead fifty sword and shield soldiers to pursue Tu Hong along the traces left by him, to join Tu Hong and take charge of capturing the new jackal camp."
He originally wanted to go by himself.
However, considering that there were still many wild wolf carcasses waiting to be disposed of at the scene, and that they had just experienced another crisis, they finally decided to let Tu Gang lead the team.
"promise!"
This order was in line with Tu Gang's wishes, so he immediately ordered his troops to pursue him.
………
After treating the wounded, Tang Jing had time to count the loot.
The first thing is of course the crystal nucleus.
In this battle, a total of more than 60 wild wolves and more than 50 jackals were killed, and a total of 15 level 1 crystal cores and 3 level 2 crystal cores were obtained, which was considered a great harvest.
Tang Jing immediately sent 5 level 1 crystal cores, together with basic supplies, to the previous winners.
Don't delay the upgrading of other people's territories.
In order to compensate for the "delayed delivery", he also sent an extra jackal ax and a worn-out armor to each winning lord as compensation.
Without the trust of these people today, this battle would be very suspenseful.
