Chapter 129 Wrong Direction
Like most creatures on earth, even the demon's cervical spine is a vulnerable part. With a ton of force concentrated on one point, its cervical spine was directly torn off, and its originally strong struggle instantly weakened.

Tang Zhao stretched out his paws and pressed it to the ground, and then patched its heart. The claws penetrated directly through the heart to ensure that the Bagula Demon lost its ability to resist. Feeling the pain, he lowered his head and rushed towards the hobgoblin catapult, like a war hammer, directly smashing a catapult into pieces.

Immediately afterwards, Tang Zhao's momentum continued to rush towards the rest of the catapults, and within ten seconds, he knocked all three catapults into pieces in a row.

With another powerful tail swing, Tang Zhao dismantled the last catapult. Its mission was completed. Before the surrounding hobgoblins and wargs surrounded him, he nimbly climbed onto it. tree, and keeps shrinking along the way.

Although his small size will affect his combat effectiveness, it will also make him more difficult to find, especially now that it is night, and he also has the ability of night vision and color change, which is very helpful for him to escape from the sky.

Integrating with the canopy, he successfully escaped the hunt of the hobgoblins and began to march towards his camp.

At the same time, on the other side of the battlefield, the dwarves who were no longer suppressed by throwing stones were finally able to shoot freely.Ballistas, crossbow bolts, slings, magic... all kinds of throwing weapons rained down, and the hobgoblins before rushing to the camp lost almost one-fifth of their number in this round alone.

The hobgoblins and the gnolls kept complaining, and they could only hold up the shields in their hands, trying to reduce the damage they suffered, but this move had little effect, and they fell down like harvesting wheat.

Only a few lucky ones can rush to the front of the camp, and what awaits them is the shield wall of the dwarves and the spear array of the kobolds. The terrain here is narrow, and the cavalry cannot be used at all. The hobgoblins have no superpowers except the trebuchet Long-range firepower, helpless in this situation.

If the tactics of restraining the gun formation cannot be used, then the combat effectiveness of this kind of square formation is very terrifying, and it can easily stop several times the number of enemies.

Sure enough, the enemy crashed into the spear array and shield wall, without even a splash. They couldn't tear up the defensive formation at all, but they were choked by the combination of spears and shields and suffered heavy losses.

From the moment their catapults were destroyed, the outcome of this war had already been decided. They lacked countermeasures against long-range weapons. At the same time, the enemy was still centered on long-range firepower. The dwarves and kobolds on the opposite side They have the upper hand, and there's nothing they can do about it.

The futile offensive continued for another two rounds, and when the horn sounded to represent retreat, they could only slowly retreat unwillingly.

The losses on Tang Zhao's side were not small. They were well versed in the principle of not chasing after the poor, and they did not take the risk of chasing after all.

The wild beasts were released to scout the enemy's situation, and they quickly got accurate information. After confirming that the opponent had really retreated, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.I finally feel relieved.

Most of the kobolds looked like they had survived the catastrophe, and the elves were obviously more relaxed, while the faces of the dwarves were flat and numb. In short, no one was ecstatic, and there was a depressive atmosphere in the camp.

Even though the enemy suffered far more losses than them, they also suffered considerable losses when they were raided at night, especially those stones before.

Tang Zhao, who had just rushed back to the camp, looked at the people in front of him, and understood why the dwarves were so bitter and hostile all day long.

Their race is in a period of decline, almost in a state of being mobbed and attacked. Every dwarf warrior has to go through countless wars in his life and witness the injuries and deaths of countless comrades in arms. Even so, their race is still growing. Thanks to their long lifespan, they can still witness the fall of dwarven fortresses. Under such circumstances, it is a ghost that they can maintain a good mood.

"Don't take it lightly! I won't be surprised when two giants rush out of the woods again! The ballista is ready, and the goblins have repaired the tower and the fence! Release the owl to observe the environment!"

Bourne was the quickest to react. Right after the battle, he called everyone to rebuild their defenses. The dwarves and some kobolds obeyed his instructions, struggled to stand up, and returned to their posts to be on guard.

Franken and Cynthia looked at each other, nodded to each other, and each commanded their subordinates to return to their posts and patrol the forest.

The dryads and pixies didn't have much loss in the previous short and fierce battle. They rushed forward to rescue the wounded, and at the same time allocated a small number of people to restore the defense of the camp.

Needless to say, the kobolds consciously began to clean the battlefield, bury the corpses of their comrades, burn and bury the corpses of the enemy, and at the same time count the seized and lost materials and prepare to report them to the statisticians later.

Everything was going on in an orderly manner, Tang Zhao was not idle when he saw this, and went to the unicorn Lorraine to share his knowledge.

It's important to only spot one demon before, because it feels unnatural when the enemy is attacking wildly.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Lorraine also fell into deep thought. After thinking for a long time, he answered Tang Zhao in a strange way.

[It shouldn’t be like this. In fact, I have always thought that after the hobgoblin’s offensive, there should be demons attacking the camp. Even if the higher-level demons fail to enter the main world, there should be a large number of original demons. Quassai and other low-level demons should come in. 】

He also felt very strange. Judging from the law of demon invasions in the past, this time the demons spent so much effort to spread that kind of scroll all over the world, and they also cooperated with hobgoblins and even orcs. The picture must be not small, but they are now Only two or three Bagura demons of moderate strength were brought in, obviously not worthy of such a big battle between the two sides.

Before, he firmly believed that there would be a third round of offensive, so he even persuaded Bourne not to let him use the rune weapon Haiji gave him, otherwise the battle would be much easier.

[Otherwise, tell the owls and the wolves to look elsewhere. Although this is an important node for them to go north, it is not impossible for them to have other teams bypass us and raid the rear. 】

Tang Zhao's suggestion reminded Lorraine, he suddenly raised his head and looked in the other direction of the forest.

【You are right, maybe this is not their main direction of attack. Maybe they didn't think about attacking the forest at first, but to attack the human world through the forest. 】
