The new era of chaos begins in the Song Dynasty

Chapter 339 The Era of Hunting
Ergou killed the beastmen more easily than others, not because of his exquisite martial arts, but because he took advantage of two aspects.

The first is the sharpness of the Liquan Spear. This divine spear is made from the backbone of the evil beast Bassake. It is born with an evil-destroying attribute similar to the decomposition stance. It can easily tear apart the beastman's body. Flesh.

The second point is Ergou's super physical strength, which has been improving at a high speed. The power given by Shen Yanggong's bloodline talent [King Kong Body] seems to have no limit. It is actually increasing every day. Now Ergou's Its absolute strength is comparable to two bulls, it can lift nearly a ton of weight, and its explosive power is even better than that of a tiger.

This allows Ergou to inflict crushing wounds on the beastmen even without the help of the Liquan Gun.

However, the madness of the beastmen should not be underestimated, especially when Ergou had three burdens around him, Ergou could only endure the beastman's attack.

Fortunately, Ergou is not alone, he has more helpers coming back to help.

Not long after, Wang Huan and others turned their horses around and accelerated back, knocking down the remaining beastmen again and even killing them.

Although the results this time were not greater than the first time, there were enough heads harvested.

More beastmen were killed directly, and the lucky ones among the remaining three or five beastmen staggered up, looked at everyone with vicious eyes, and then began to lie down and run away like real beasts.

It's a pity that the escaping beastmen can only do useless work, because Xue Ju and Xue Zong have already completed the encirclement and outflanking, and they just completed the array to intercept the escapees.

A fierce fight broke out between the two sides.

In the end, all the beastmen were captured or killed, but the retreat team led by the Xue brothers suffered extremely heavy losses.

Four dead and seven injured. Seriously speaking, this number of casualties is not a big deal, but more of the living people were frightened into a trance by the ferocity of the beastmen.

It's not that the sergeants are timid, it's that those monster-looking guys are really cruel. They would rather be chopped a few times, but they would also tear and bite a human who was close at hand and eat the human flesh alive on the spot.

However, these beasts have skin as thick as a rhinoceros, as strong as a bull, almost invulnerable to knives and axes, and more ferocious than a giant insect. Who can avoid being afraid of them?
Before everyone could clean up the battlefield, Wang Huan led some pale-faced leaders to Ergou. Wang Huan asked solemnly: "Brother Chen, you only said that the soil here is fertile, but you never said that the owner of this place is like this." Violent!"

The two dogs first stopped the bleeding from the wound on the unlucky Jia Gan's shoulder, and then said unhurriedly: "Wherever the treasures of heaven and earth are located, they must be protected by poisonous insects and fierce beasts. This is a precious place in this world, if there is no The ferocious natives are entrenched, and I am afraid that they have been occupied by others. How can it be our turn to come and take it from the fallen grass!"

Wang Huan was about to argue, but someone came over and knocked the guy to his knees with just one big kick.

Everyone was a little indifferent when they saw Wang Huan being beaten. The more respectable ones even turned their heads to avoid it, but most of the rough guys stared at the fun with their eyes wide open.

Wang Huan was naturally a little embarrassed after being beaten for such a long time, but when he saw the perpetrator behind him clearly, he immediately calmed down his anger and showed a helpless smile.

There was no way, who knew the person who kicked him was his biological father.

After Wang Hou kicked Wang Huan, he still cursed angrily: "You don't grow up! How could I be a hero and end up with such an ignorant fool like you!"

Compared to Wang Huan, a semi-dandy boy, Wang Hou has a much bigger picture.

Of course, this is mainly due to the fact that Wang Hou has a better father than Wang Huan.

Although the land of China today is divided by countries such as the Song Dynasty, Northern Liao Dynasty, and Xixia Dynasty, generally speaking, they still belong to the category of human ethnic groups. This kind of land for human survival has been developed step by step since the Chinese ancestors in ancient times.

The process is not a romantic game, but a step-by-step effort by countless ancestors with huge amounts of blood and lives.

In this process, the opponents that the ancestors faced would never be weaker than these beastmen in Shenyang Realm. It should be said that these beastmen were the enemy remnants who failed to compete with the ancestors and had to retreat here.

What's the name of that remnant?

Ghost side!

So what if such an enemy is extremely ferocious, should we just give up?

Absolutely impossible!
The ancestors of China could defeat the ghosts, and the descendants of the Han family would naturally be able to defeat them a second time.

Wang Hou first scolded Wang Huan severely, and then smiled and talked to Ergou, especially praising his martial arts.

Then everyone began to clean up the battlefield seriously.

Give the badly injured Beastman a last-ditch hit, and then loot the loot.

Originally, everyone was afraid of the ferocity of these beastmen, but when they entered the beastmen's village and collected some trophies from them, the so-called "fear" was immediately replaced by some more radical emotions.

Gold and brass are the most abundant metals in the beastmen's smelly shack-like building.

Gold sand, nugget gold, as well as rough gold products, ornaments, etc., these are all precious metals that can make people lose their mind.

There are also statues and utensils made of brass. If you take any one of these to the Song Dynasty, it will be enough to sell for a high price.

Perhaps only the wise will know that compared to land, gold and the like are just cold, floating wealth.

But to these rebel leaders, tacky things like gold and copper are truly touching and cute.

Wang Huan was holding a short golden staff as thick as an arm, but he and Ergou sighed: "At first, Mr. Chen said that this place was rich in gold, and we didn't take it seriously. Now it seems that we are ignorant. That’s it!”

Ergou asked with a smile: "What? Are you not worried about the ferocity of those beast-like natives?!"

At this time, a general next to him said: "Haha, sir, don't underestimate us. With this gold base, we are not afraid of even more dangerous enemies, not to mention just a few beastmen."

Indeed, as long as there is enough temptation of benefits, even the devil is just a dish in people's eyes.

After rough statistics, Ergou and the others found about fifty kilograms of gold of various kinds in this small aboriginal village with less than thirty people, as well as ten times this amount of various bronzes.

As the saying goes, money is eye-catching, and with such generous returns, everyone has some expectations for hunting more beastmen.

In order to better deal with the beastmen, Ergou and a group of generals began to discuss how to deal with these indigenous monsters, especially a set of executable tactical plans.

Of course, this requires enough intelligence support about the beastmen.

So everyone summed up their tactics and sent people to continue hunting more beastmen. Due to the strong individual strength of the beastmen, the members of the hunting team were basically strong leader-level figures.

After just tapping, everyone discovered an interesting phenomenon.

Although the individual strength of the beastmen is indeed outstanding, their unity is very poor. They rarely cooperate with each other in battles, and there are many examples of even fighting each other to snatch "prey".

This made everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

In nature, the average individual strength of human beings is not outstanding, but they can become the overlord of the ecological food chain and win the reputation of the terrifying erect ape. The biggest reason is the unity and cooperation of humans and their extraordinary wisdom.

Although the saying "An army of ants can kill an elephant" is a bit exaggerated in its literal meaning, "A large number of people can kill dragons and tigers" is a true reality.

Everyone has come up with countless ways to deal with brainless indigenous monsters like the Beastmen.

There are many ideas about using crossbows to focus fire on the beastmen, but there are some problems during the execution of this idea.

For some unknown reason, bows and arrows fired by normal people can injure beastmen, but due to the limited force provided by people pulling the bow, the injuries suffered by beastmen are not very serious.

However, the more powerful crossbow cannot really harm the beastman at all. This reminds Ergou of the situation where the evil beast is immune to some long-range crossbows.

Perhaps these beastmen also have some evil-like characteristics.

Of course, it is undoubtedly very unrealistic to rely only on some highly skilled rebel leaders to kill the beastmen. Even if they are exhausted, they can still kill a few.

After Ergou encountered the beastmen for the first time, he frequently found traces of the beastmen and hunted them, in order to find a way to summarize and figure out a method that would allow ordinary people to be qualified to hunt these beastmen.

After all, ordinary soldiers are the real main force of Ergou and his pioneer army.

Even if it takes ten soldiers to kill one beastman, based on the premise of ten thousand, their absolute efficiency in killing beastmen is more than ten times better than Ergou and the others.

Since ordinary soldiers cannot learn powerful martial arts like generals, they need to start from other aspects if they want to fight against the beastmen.

That is targeted tactical arrangements and more sophisticated weapons.

As far as tactics are concerned, the most classic tactic Ergou can think of is the Yuanyang Formation created by the famous Ming Dynasty general Qi Jiguang.

Qi Jiguang invented the Mandarin Duck Formation, whose purpose was to enable civilians and miners from poor backgrounds to fight against Japanese pirates who had practiced martial arts since childhood.

To put it bluntly, this is a tactical formation in which the weak take advantage of their numbers to fight against or even defeat and kill the strong.

Obviously, it is the right time to move the Yuanyang Formation to this era and let ordinary soldiers use this formation to fight against the beastmen.

Of course, the mandarin duck formation alone cannot completely reverse the unfavorable situation of ordinary human soldiers against the beastmen. They need sharper weapons to complete the final harvest of the beastmen.

It's just that this is more head-scratching than practicing the Yuanyang Formation.

Because only those weapons that can cut gold and jade as easily as a knife can cut through tofu can meet this requirement.

Not to mention equipping the entire rebel army with such magical weapons, and each magical weapon is valuable, even some leaders are not equipped with all the equipment.

In this regard, Ergou had no choice but to come forward to solve the matter.

As for his solution to the weapon, it was very simple. He activated psychic teleportation to seek help from the steel ruins in the subspace, and asked the steel battleship with the machine soul to help build the weapon.

This is really a very efficient method.

Ergou's repair and cleanup of the steel battleship has almost come to an end. At least one-third of the battleship's contaminated areas have been purified, including the weapons production workshop on the battleship.

Ergou entered the workshop and quickly selected the weapon he wanted to process - a single-molecule sword.

This is a magical war blade with a single edge, sharp enough to cut through the steel inner wall of a battleship. Perhaps for some individuals who are equipped with it, the single-molecule war blade is a relatively small melee weapon, but for most humans, this thing is even more powerful than a conventional waist knife.

With the help of some machines on the battleship, Ergou used a large amount of recycled once-corroded steel as raw materials, but spent most of a day making about a thousand molecular war blades.

Of course, Ergou himself does not have this technology, but what really contributes is the automated processing capability of the battleship. The only thing Ergou can do is to feed materials and count the finished products, and then take them back to the real world and distribute them. .

When everyone saw these more than a thousand extremely sharp swords, everyone was inexplicably horrified by Ergou's generosity.

After having the appropriate weapons and the Yuanyang Formation undergoing a period of training, Ergou and others will begin to test whether their plan has perfect results.

A newly discovered beastman village was chosen as the target for the experiment.

Immediately, an army that was well practiced in the mandarin duck formation moved to a location near the beastman village and lurked in a relatively secret place.

Then Ergou ordered two men with better riding skills, and three men came on horseback to the village where the beastmen were brought, and provoked some beastmen.

Not long after, all the beastmen came out in full force, but they came to surround and kill Ergou and several others.

The two dogs immediately turned their horses' heads and started running away, which further stimulated the hunting desire of these indigenous residents, and they roared and chased after them without hesitation.

Needless to say, the result was that these idiots fell into the ambush circle without any surprise, and were severely beaten by the soldiers who mastered the tactics of Yuanyang Formation.

In the end, more than forty of this larger group of beastmen were killed, and three were taken prisoner, while only a dozen humans died.

The Yuanyang Formation has always been extremely effective in protecting soldiers. Back then, Qi Jiguang often relied on this formation to achieve results with a huge disparity in casualty ratios, so that every time he reported the results of his battles, he had to desperately exaggerate his own losses to appease some people. Jealousy and suspicion,
Of course, although the loss of the sergeant who presided over the Yuanyang Formation this time was not very great, there were some things that could not be ignored. For example, the soldiers were not very familiar with the training of the Yuanyang Formation, which led to many times when he made mistakes while waiting and was eventually killed by a wild beast. People took the opportunity to pick up the heads.

There is also the replacement of the wolf fork - the soft pole steel fork is not very easy to use, so that the wolf fork has difficulty restricting the movement of the beastman, and it eventually takes advantage of it.
