Chapter 1056: Being Trapped
If the elf knights and the trapped cavalry were in their heyday, they would naturally have nothing to fear.
But in the current situation, the Trap Cavalry has just ended its deadly fight with the green-skinned troops, and the Elf Knights have just finished a set of explosions in order to support the Trap Cavalry and escort the Trap Cavalry out of the encirclement.
At this juncture, it would really be a fatal thing if the Goblin Wolf Cavalry on the opposite side had an overwhelming advantage in strength.
As an important part of his personal regiment, Zhou Xu knows the situation of the elf knights very well.
As for the trapped cavalry, facing the large green-skinned army with fewer enemies and being besieged until now, their condition is not much better. Their combat effectiveness basically does not need to be considered.
How could Zhou Xu, who had predicted this situation in advance, not be prepared at all?
While trying his best to let the skeleton troops hinder the actions of the Goblin Wolf Cavalry, Zhou Xu quickly ordered...
"John! Intercept the Goblin Wolf Cavalry!"
< br>“Yes!”
In response, all the power of the mantra that had been saved before was used at this time.
【Savage growth! 】
【Plant control! 】
Spurred by the ‘savage growth’, the entangled vines on the battlefield began to grow faster.
However, what is different from before is that these twining vines seem to come alive at this time, like spiritual snakes swimming quickly against the ground, heading straight towards the flying Goblin Wolf Cavalry. They approached.
Although the Goblin Wolf Cavalry moved quickly and could adapt to many complex terrain environments, they were still caught in the face of this completely unexpected situation.
The flying vines swept them to the ground, and the offensive of the Wood Elf Mage Group obviously would not end here.
While sweeping the Goblin Wolf Cavalry to the ground, the winding properties of the entangled vines were also triggered and quickly climbed onto their bodies.
Seizing the opportunity, the wood elf mages headed by John immediately took follow-up measures.
【Energy absorption! 】
This 'energy extraction' hand is directly used to seal the opponent's retreat. Coupled with the method of 'plant manipulation', it will undoubtedly be difficult for the entangled Goblin Wolf Cavalry to break free.
The wolf cavalry commander was shocked by the completely unexpected method. After cutting off a vine that was flying towards him with one knife, facing the Dazhou troops who used frequent tricks, A feeling of retreat arose spontaneously.
"Everyone retreats! Get out of these vine-covered areas!"
The Wolf Cavalry are among the elite troops within the greenskins, and they can't just hide there without knowing it. here!
Save what you can, and give up decisively if you can't save. After receiving the order, the Goblin Wolf Cavalry quickly retreated, keeping a safe distance from the flying tangled vines.
When the wood elf mages headed by John saw this, they did not pursue them.
With the retreat of the Goblin Wolf Cavalry, their purpose of covering the elf knights and trapped cavalry in retreating to the grassland pass has been achieved.
Tangled Vine was able to successfully intercept the Goblin Wolf Cavalry just now because they knew the movement route of the Goblin Wolf Cavalry and knew their purpose, so they just blocked their only way. .
But it is basically unrealistic for them to control the entangled vines to chase the cavalry.
If Locke were here and used his extraordinary mage strength to attack with all his strength, he would be able to make the growth rate of the entangled vines exceed the movement speed of the cavalry in a short period of time, forming a pursuit ability to a certain extent, but John and the others obviously haven't reached that point yet.
Fortunately, they had successfully persuaded the Goblin Wolf Cavalry on the opposite side to retreat.
At the same time, the unexpected defeat soon caused the green-skinned troops on the opposite side to temporarily withdraw their troops.
During this period, Xuan Yu flew in the air to confirm the movements of the green-skinned troops on the opposite side. After confirming that the opponent had indeed retreated, Zhou Xu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly released the control of all the skeleton soldiers. At that moment, his face turned a little pale.
When more than half of the mantra power in his body is consumed, summoning and controlling three thousand skeleton troops to fight is a big burden for him.
At this moment, Zhou Xu couldn't help but feel a little lucky.
Thanks to the fact that the green-skinned troops on the opposite side chose to retreat, if the stalemate continues, he will inevitably be dragged into a bad negative state with the serious consumption of the power of the mantra.
At that time, just to get rid of the negative state, you will have to wait for ten days and a half.
In fact, he was already at that critical point. The severe consumption made him feel light-headed and also gave him a slight headache.
If the green-skinned troops did not withdraw at that time, he could only resort to the last resort and let the wood elf mage group block the entrance with entangled vines to block the green-skinned troops' subsequent offensive.
Taking a deep breath, according to his current state, it was best to take a rest as soon as possible, but Zhou Xu was obviously not in that mood now.
"Silk, please make arrangements for the subsequent deployment."
After quickly handing over the deployment task to Silke, Zhou Xu quickly walked to Chitose who was covered in blood. .
At this moment, Chitose was so tired that she fell asleep on the spot. Looking at its bloody body, Zhou Xu felt heartbroken, but was speechless for a long time.
After adjusting his emotions and not disturbing Chitose's rest, Zhou Xu turned around and found Jie Liancheng who was sitting on the ground.
This was the first time he had seen someone in such a miserable state.
"How is the injury?"
Hearing this, Xie Liancheng shook his head laboriously.
"The injury is not a big deal, it's just this time. I'm a bit hit, and I feel unhappy."
As he spoke, Xie Liancheng hesitated for a moment, and then turned his face to the green He was surrounded and intercepted by the leather troops, and he expressed his despair and even lost his will to fight.
After saying that, Jie Liancheng exhaled a long breath and felt much more comfortable.
Zhou Xu was not too surprised by this situation.
To put it bluntly, I suffered less setbacks than before.
It can be seen from the five-star bravery that Xie Liancheng is extremely talented in related fields. He can learn all moves and skills at a young age. He became a national-level martial arts athlete at a young age and later participated in fighting. game and won the world championship again.
Basically, other players of his generation are outclassed by him. In his level, he is dominant and has no opponents at all. This also made his previous career difficult. That's called a smooth sailing.
To put it arrogantly, he doesn't know how to write the word failure.
After traveling through time, relying on his strong individual strength, he directly became a general under Yan Sheng.
Later on, he was indeed suspected and suppressed by Yan Sheng, and he also witnessed some court struggles, but this did not affect him at all from the fact that he had never lost a battle!
On a battlefield of that scale, a peerless general like him could turn the tide with just his personal bravery, which undoubtedly made him more confident.
After that, he followed Zhou Xu. In the battle in New Taipei District, he was really stressed out against the greenskins, but he still won in the end.
Therefore, it was the first time for him to face a situation like this where he was completely helpless, and it felt terrible.
