But seeing all the other imperial soldiers running over and disappearing quickly, the two could only suppress their doubts in their hearts and ran over quickly.
There was indeed a large hole in front of them, only one meter in diameter and about ten meters deep. The two of them could clearly see Yuan Chonghuan waving at the bottom of the hole.
"Come down quickly. There are many passages here. We should be able to leave from here."
Seeing that there were more and more chariots behind them, the two men no longer hesitated. Banhammer jumped off first, followed by Winter.
When their figures disappeared into the sand cave, the chariots arrived.
The hatch on the chariot opened, and a yellow mecha warrior got out half of his body, glanced at the sand hole, and showed a sarcastic smile.
"They entered the territory of the Sand Lizards. They will not live long... Some people were left to watch them, while others followed me and continued to look for the Imperial Army's troops."
The young commander was very confident. After converging with the chariot troops and infantry, he chased in the direction of other suspected imperial troops.
In the sand cave, Yuan Chonghuan, who did not know that this was the territory of the Sand Lizards, was still walking in the passage.
"It's quite solid here and there are many roads. I don't know who built it." After touching the solid passage wall, the sand on it seemed to be solidified with some kind of glue.
"No matter who built it, we'd better get out of here as soon as possible." Ban Zhui sniffed his nose hard, "The smell here is really bad."
A pungent, somewhat rotten fish smell penetrated everyone's noses. This smell seemed to have seeped into the surrounding walls, torturing everyone's sense of taste all the time.
"It's a bit big here... I don't know where the exit is?"
After walking for a while, they still couldn't see the end of the road. Yuan Chonghuan and others were a little anxious. The sight here was dim. They only used flashlights to illuminate the road. The swaying lights made people feel very depressed.
"ah……"
Suddenly, the screams of soldiers came from the front, occasionally mixed with roars, followed by the sound of bullets coming out of the barrel.
"Something happened ahead, everyone should be careful."
The pupils in Yuan Chonghuan's eyes expanded, and the scene in the passage seemed to be right before his eyes.
A group of khaki upright lizards were fighting with the imperial soldiers with weapons made of bones. They were strong and muscular, with most of their muscles exposed, and only wore dirty aprons around their waists.
Their strength should not be underestimated. The mecha that was struck immediately shattered and cracked. Of course, the bones in their hands also shattered.
But they didn't care. If their weapons were gone, they would use their claws, teeth, and thick tails.
"Everyone squat down, shoot with your guns, and don't fight with them."
Yuan Chonghuan discovered that most of the lizard man's body was covered by scales, but the lower abdomen was covered with fine white scales, which were very smooth and soft. It seemed that he could not withstand bullets, so he shouted to the soldiers in front.
The well-trained imperial soldiers heard the shout but did not execute it. They quickly squatted down until the hammer repeated it again.
For them, the only people who can obey orders are their superiors, and others are simply not qualified.
As soon as they squatted down, the situation immediately changed. The tall lizard man immediately appeared in everyone's field of vision. They raised their guns slightly and shot forward.
The lizard man's chest exploded immediately, revealing the beating heart inside, and then exploded with continuous shots.
One by one, the strong lizardmen fell to the ground, their bodies covered with bloody holes. Only when there were no more lizardmen in sight did the imperial soldiers put down their guns.
"What should we do now? Do we still want to move forward?" Winter came close to the two of them and whispered.
"Then what else can we do? There are a large number of rebels behind us, and we will die if we go back. Why don't we fight here..." The dwarf waved the Gauss rifle in his hand, "At least those lizardmen are difficult for the guns in our hands."
defense."
"Well, I agree, let's go from here. It would be best to find a lizard man who can speak Common Language?"
As soon as Yuan Chonghuan finished speaking, the two of them looked at him with strange eyes.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Yuan Chonghuan asked doubtfully.
"How do you know these natives know our language?" Ban Zhui looked at him seriously, "Have you met them before?"
Yuan Chonghuan was silent for a second. What should he say? Could it be that it was a memory transmitted to him by Ming City?
But facing the curious looks of the two people, Yuan Chonghuan still replied, "They have lived here for so long. There will definitely be some lizard people who are curious about us humans and learn our language to use it to explore our human affairs. Isn't this very strange?"
Is it normal?”
"It seems that this is indeed the case." The two nodded silently.
The Imperial soldiers, who were missing a few companions, continued to advance. They half-bent their bodies, put the muzzles of their guns in front, went around a corner, and fired a few shots regardless of whether they saw the lizard men, to achieve the purpose of preemptive strike.
Their tactical movements were very standardized and their reactions were quite agile. In this small space, the lizardmen simply could not take advantage of their numerical advantage.
When the lizardmen suddenly rushed out from ambush around the corner, the Imperial soldiers immediately crouched down and fired wildly at them.
After several waves of destruction of the lizardmen, no less than 300 lizardmen corpses were left in the passage, which made the road ahead for the imperial soldiers smoother and smoother.
The journey was smooth and the field of view became wider. They entered a huge space, a bit like a square.
It is circular here, with more than twenty passages connected to it, extending in all directions.
There are countless torches on the surrounding walls, illuminating the place very brightly. In addition, the most decorated decorations here are the bones.
They were made into sticks and stuck on the ground randomly. Seeing these human-looking skulls made everyone feel shuddering.
Are the staple foods of these lizard people all humans?
"Everyone, pay attention. The terrain here is open. Those lizardmen should launch an attack here. Keep your eyes open and look at the holes. They are very likely to rush out from there."
Banzhu suddenly realized that the terrain here was very unfavorable to them, but a force of more than a dozen people might not be able to fight against the massive lizardmen.
But they had to go here. They kept going west. Only through this square could they reach another cave entrance.
The Imperial soldiers formed a circle and placed the three men in the inner circle. They pointed their guns outward, like hedgehogs, and slowly moved towards the other diagonal hole.
"Be careful, they are coming, there are many of them, they are at every entrance of the cave."
Yuan Chonghuan, who had turned on his long-distance vision, noticed their presence early. Before the imperial soldiers could make any move, he first raised his five-eyed fire blunderbuss and shot at the entrances of each hole.
Gray light bullets flew to the edge of the hole and penetrated directly into the wall. After several roars, all five holes collapsed.
It will take at least about five minutes for those lizardmen to get through again.
But when Yuan Chonghuan just blew up 10 cave entrances, a large number of lizard warriors began to run out of the other dozen cave entrances.
