Chapter 401: Wolf Traces in the Snow
After coming to such a conclusion, even though Chen Ziyan had already expected it, he couldn't help but smack his lips. It was indeed quite demonic!
"Master Chen, do we really want to shoot directly?"
At this moment, Hu Bayi, who had finished the preliminary deduction, came over and asked.
Because he wanted to deduce the location of the nine-story demon tower, he was not there when the battle plan was laid out. After learning about Chen Ziyan's plan from Wang Kaixuan, he couldn't help it immediately.
Having already made a preliminary analysis of the glacier structure here, he knew that shooting from light weapons would not cause the snow on the distant snow peaks to collapse.
But that refers to burst shooting, not the sweeping shot that Chen Ziyan wanted.
You must know that although the ice here is thick, it does not mean that the surrounding ice is equally strong. Scattered bursts are fine, but strafing is another matter entirely. It is basically the same as a fan. Blow.
Hu Bayi did not think that the ice could withstand such a level of attack for a long time, so he was opposed to Chen Ziyan's idea.
Being familiar with semi-automatic rifles, he knew very well that if he fired without restriction, the nearby ice would definitely be smashed into sieves.
In particular, they are most likely to fire from all sides at the same time, which will undoubtedly make it easier to create a chain response.
"As expected, there will be a fierce battle tonight. We need to grasp the rhythm from the beginning."
Chen Ziyan pointed to the firing port of the fortifications, and then continued:
“After all, our fortifications were built in a hurry. It may be barely adequate in terms of defense, but the limited field of vision cannot be ignored, so the wolves must be restricted to a few meters away. If we use burst shooting, If we come to meet the enemy, it will be difficult to achieve our goal."
This is also the fundamental reason why Chen Ziyan chose to shoot wildly at the beginning when formulating the battle plan.
Hearing this, Hu Bayi nodded silently and said nothing more.
He could hear what Chen Ziyan wanted to express. This was not because of suitability or inappropriateness, but because of the limitations of the situation they faced.
If it were an ordinary wolf, it would be okay, and this matter might be discussed a bit, but if it were a giant wolf like the one in the Zanggugou, Chen Ziyan would do the best.
"Old Hu, have you found the location?" Seeing this, Chen Ziyan decisively changed the topic.
Rather than worrying about this problem, he is more willing to care about the location of the nine-story demon building.
"The general direction has been determined. All that's left is on-site inspection. Only then can we truly determine it." Hu Bayi replied.
"It's good to have a clue." Chen Ziyan nodded.
He was not surprised by this. Although there were ancient silver eyes and coordinate maps, the environmental problems here were there, and it would be good to be able to find a rough range.
Just when Chen Ziyan was about to continue saying something, he suddenly felt a chill on his face. He subconsciously looked towards the sky and found that the stars in the sky had been obscured by dark clouds, and goose-feather snowflakes began to fall.
Looking at the snow of this magnitude since its appearance, Chen Ziyan couldn’t help but feel a little thump in his heart.
He felt this might be a signal!
Signal of approaching danger!
At this moment, anything out of the ordinary cannot be ignored.
Thinking this in his heart, he said: "Everyone, speed up!"
Hu Bayi, who was closest to Chen Ziyan, saw the change in his expression and turned his head to look around. After the snow and fog gradually spread, his expression became serious, and he hurried over to help.
Although the others didn't think so much, they didn't dare to underestimate Chen Ziyan's words, and they also speeded up their hands.
Everyone quickly packed up the tools they used, and then entered the fortifications through the reserved entrance in an orderly manner.
Chen Ziyan, who deliberately stayed at the end, checked the surroundings with a searchlight before going in. He followed after seeing nothing unusual.
Although the space of the fortification is not wide, it is actually not small. In the center is the entrance to the ice cave below, and next to it is the bonfire they lit.
Chen Ziyan glanced at the few people who were keeping warm by the campfire, and after thinking about it, he still didn’t say anything to let them take the opportunity to rest first.
If there hadn't been the sudden heavy snow outside, maybe we could have taken this opportunity to recover, but now that the crisis could come at any time, we couldn't do that.
Although Hu Bayi and the others were a little tired, they could still hold on, and they also knew that the situation might be a little bad now, so no one said anything.
A few people were just chatting away, while looking out through the shooting port from time to time.
They placed searchlights above each firing port. It was difficult to see clearly from a distance, but there was still no problem around the fortifications.
Shashasha——
After almost ten minutes, a faint but dense sound reached Chen Ziyan's ears.
The moment he heard this sound, Chen Ziyan stood up suddenly and looked out along the shooting port closest to him.
He guessed correctly, what was supposed to come finally came!
Others immediately became vigilant when they saw his action, and they all got up and walked towards the other shooting ports.
At this moment, the sky is full of wind and snow outside, and the visibility can be said to be suppressed to the extreme. Even with a searchlight, you can only see a dozen meters clearly.
Even for Chen Ziyan, who has the best eyesight, anything over twenty meters is blurry.
Feeling the biting cold wind hitting his face, Chen Ziyan suddenly had an idea in his mind, that is, this sudden snowstorm was probably not a purely natural weather event.
After all, this climate is perfect for a raid!
Night...wind and snow...the combination of these factors is simply the best environment for a raid. With this thought flashing through his mind, Chen Ziyan said to the others: "Use flares!"
As he spoke, he fired a flare directly into the distance.
Swish, swish, swish——
The other three sides also followed closely, and four illumination bombs flew out from the shooting port.
The flare with a small parachute swayed in the howling cold wind and did not land immediately. The light emitted shone brightly on the snow-white ice layer below, and everyone was stunned for a moment. Somewhat dizzy.
After quickly dispelling the bad state, Chen Ziyan immediately focused his attention and looked under the flare. Through the light of the flare, he could clearly see that there were twenty or thirty people on the ground about forty meters away from them. A giant wolf is slowly approaching.
"Master Chen, there are wolves here, at least twenty."
"I am here too."
"I am also the same number here."
>After a few seconds, data from the other three directions also came out.
Chen Ziyan thought for a while and felt that the number of attacks this time was likely to exceed his imagination, at least within a hundred.
And...if what he expected was correct, these should be just pioneers.
Ouch——
At the next moment, a low and vicissitudes of wolf howl suddenly sounded, and then the giant wolves that were caught off guard by the flare seemed to have received a signal to attack. Likewise, Sazu started running towards where they were.
Seeing this, Chen Ziyan immediately gave up his position to Shirley Yang, and said in a deep voice: "Do it as planned!"
He was not surprised by this. When he decided to launch the flare, He had already thought of this possibility.
The shooter who had been assigned immediately picked up the weapon and pulled the trigger of the firearm in his hand without hesitation.
Bang, bang, bang—
With the burst of muzzle fireworks, a series of bullets were shot out for free, directly hitting the giant wolves that were rushing towards them.
It can be said that after seeing these terrifying giant wolves outside, even Hu Bayi had no objection at all.
Faced with such a giant wolf, if they cannot be restricted to a certain distance, then their defenses are likely to become a clampdown.
Chen Ziyan, who took a step back, was watching the battle while also speculating on the wolves' intentions.
Judging from the behavior of these giant wolves, they should be planning to approach quietly and then attack. This is in line with the hunting rules of the wolf pack.
In fact, this is a very good strategy, with the cover of the wind and snow. If Chen Ziyan hadn't relied on his ear skills to be superior, ordinary people would have been caught off guard.
But it has to be said that the wolf king hiding in the dark also reacted quickly and responded immediately. However, the situation at this moment was ultimately unfavorable to the wolves, causing these giant wolves to At this moment, he was completely reduced to a living target.
You must know that although the four people Shirley Yang, Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan and Black Glasses cannot be said to be sharpshooters, each of them can be regarded as an expert in this field. As long as he was able to let go of his hands and feet, the situation on the scene was just like Chen Ziyan imagined, successfully containing the ferocious offensive of the giant wolf out of the shooting range.
However, this does not mean that they can eliminate all the incoming giant wolves. After all, it is one thing to be able to block the attack, but it is another thing to eliminate them all.
These giant wolves are living creatures. They will not run into them knowingly that there is a heavy rain of bullets in front of them.
What's more important is that the defensive capabilities and even all aspects of these giant wolves have far exceeded Chen Ziyan's expectations.
After being hit by several bullets, he can still maintain his ability to move, and even if his companions fall down from time to time, the other giant wolves are still trying to find ways to rush in.
Just when Chen Ziyan frowned, the low wolf howl sounded again, and then he saw those giant wolves that were not afraid of death and began to retreat at a faster speed.
In the blink of an eye, except for the giant wolf carcass on the ground, there was no longer a living thing outside.
"Were we repelled?" Wang Kaixuan lowered his already hot muzzle and asked with some uncertainty.
The crazy offensive just now left him no time to think too much. Now that he saw the wolves retreating, he was still a little unbelievable for a while.
"I'm leaving, but I don't know if it's temporary or complete." Hu Bayi also let out a sigh of relief.
This offensive seems simple, but in fact it is very crazy.
If there were no defenses in front of him, he was not sure whether he would retreat subconsciously.
He had never seen that kind of crazy energy wrapped in the wind and snow. He didn't understand what a dead soldier was before, but now Hu Bayi felt that he had seen it.
