Chapter 1406 Set Fire
After the river bank collapsed and landslide, there was a place to go down, but most of the soldiers were washed away by someone, and only a small part was buried in the stones. Therefore, the Beast King divided the remaining army into two teams, large and small. He stayed where he was and picked stones to save people, and the brigade followed him to fish people along the river bank.
But before the team could rescue many people, they were surrounded by Wenren and the griffins.
Looking at the overwhelming group of griffins above his head, the officer in charge of the small team surrendered decisively.
If you don't surrender, you can't do it. If you don't surrender, those black and miserable corpses in the pits that have just been blown up next to you are an example.
Moreover, after experiencing the collapse of the sky and the ground, the soldiers under him were so tossed that they had no fighting spirit, and they couldn't even get up to resist, and they had to surrender if they couldn't fight.
In this way, a few plant bombs were spent, and Wenren led the Griffon troops to easily capture about 20,000 wild beast soldiers.
Leaving a group of people to watch the captives, Wen Ren continued to lead the Griffin troop to chase the Beast Emperor's army, flying faster in the sky than running on the ground, but after a while, they caught up with the Beast Emperor's army.
The army with the Beast King sitting in command will naturally not surrender like the previous Beast Man army, which would surrender after a few plant bombs, and there are many upright people guarding the Beast King, so Wenren is very cautious not to entrust it. Let the griffins attack, and then fly high in the sky, hanging far but not far, near and not close.
"Why are there so many flying beasts in that city?"
Looking up at the dark sky, with at least tens of thousands of griffins, the Beast Emperor's expression turned ugly.
If the opponent's number of flying beasts is less than 5,000, the Beast Emperor is not afraid at all. He has 60,000 troops and three high-level awakened people on his side, as well as no less than 500 high-level awakened people, and thousands of middle-level people. The following Awakened troops can completely compete with it, maybe they can also capture the opponent's flying beasts, and use them after domestication.
But tens of thousands of flying beasts are another order of magnitude.
It's not that you can't beat it, but that you can win the most battles.
In the previous siege battle, many troops were lost by the demon tribe, and tens of thousands of soldiers were lost in the collapse of the river bank. The army brought by this expedition is already on the verge of being seriously injured. If he competes with the opponent's air force, he will really lose to his grandma's house. When he returns to the southern border, he may lose his throne.
"Go, find a place to cross the river, go to a place with woods, I don't believe they dare to follow."
The Beast Emperor looked around, then pointed to a dense forest not far away and gave the order.
His idea is very simple. The air force is condescending. On open terrain, it can easily hit you, but you can't reach it. It is simply a nightmare for ground troops. In order to avoid this situation, find a place with complex terrain. It is best to have a dense forest that can hide the troops. With trees as a cover, the air troops will not dare to swoop down to attack easily.
After receiving the order, the wild beast army rushed to the mountain forest, and the soldiers hid in the woods.
Sure enough, as the Beast Emperor expected, after the army entered the forest, the flying beasts of the enemy in the sky no longer approached.
The Wild Beast Emperor was quite proud of coming up with such an idea for himself.
But he didn't know that when he saw the wild beast army hiding in the forest, he had a strange look on his face.
"How could that mad beast emperor think, isn't this a suicide attempt?"
That's right, from Wenren's point of view, the wild beast army hiding in the forest is looking for death.
If she was facing so many enemies in an open terrain, she would not use the incomparably precious air troops to fight. She would just wait until the floating fortress came from behind, and let Chen Fang find a way to eat this wild orc army.
But now that the wild orc had just entered the woods, it was like putting his life in her hands, so he didn't have to worry about it.
Because the griffin troops she brought over were equipped with a batch of plant-based fat incendiary bombs developed by Yaya, throwing dozens of them casually was enough to burn the entire mountain forest to bare ground. There is nowhere to escape.
And the reason why she didn't approach was not because the trees would hinder the griffins, or because she was afraid that the wild beast army would counterattack through the trees, but because she felt that she wanted to give the desperate enemy a chance to surrender.
After all, wild beastmen are a rare labor force, especially Nirvana City is now preparing for a large construction project, which requires a lot of labor, and if these wild beastmen can be captured, compared with the human race, they will be one against one or two The physique of ten people can greatly save a lot of expenses.
"Take a few people to throw a few incendiary bombs, and then call out to persuade them to surrender."
Wenren asked an adjutant to persuade the wild orcs not to resist stubbornly, and ordered him to give some color to the wild orcs before persuading them to surrender, so that they would know how powerful they are.
The adjutant took the order, took a dozen griffin riders, and drove the griffins to hover over the forest, and after circling a few times, they dropped three or five incendiary bombs.
The gray incendiary bomb fell from the sky, and fell to the ground under the curious eyes of the wild beastman.
An unknown transparent oily liquid splashed out as the husk shattered, adhering to the woods or the beastman soldiers.
After these oily liquids came into contact with the air, they spontaneously ignited instantly, but after a while, the flames burned violently in the area covered by the liquid.
"ah."
Some Berserk soldiers who were accidentally contaminated by the oily liquid caught fire, but no matter how they rolled over or their comrades slapped and rescued them, they could not extinguish the flames on their bodies, and could only wail in the burning.
And those trees that were contaminated by oil were also burning in the fire. Even if the forest was wet, it still couldn't stop the flames from eroding, and the fire gradually expanded.
Fortunately, the Griffin didn't drop many incendiary bombs, and the fire didn't spread quickly. Thanks to the efforts of the wild beastmen, the flames were still extinguished.
But even if the fire was extinguished, the Wild Beast Emperor still couldn't be happy, because he realized that this was just a warning and threat from the air force in the sky to his side.
At the same time, the Wild Beast Emperor also realized that the idea he had previously obtained was actually an idea to bring himself and the army into a desperate situation.
An officer hurried over.
"It's not good, Your Majesty, that flying army has something that can set the forest on fire, we have to get out of here quickly."
"roll."
The officer who came over from the Wild Beast Dynasty shouted angrily.
Mindless stuff.
If I am not blind, I can’t see fire. Let me tell you.
leave?
You told me that so many soldiers are in the forest, can you evacuate them all at once? Believe it or not, once you let the soldiers out of the forest, the other party will definitely set fire to the forest without hesitation.
The Beast Emperor was right, Wenren would never let them leave this forest easily.
Of course, Wenren wouldn't wantonly set fires, causing the entire army of wild beasts to fall into the fire. At most, they would set fires around the perimeter to prevent them from coming out.
"Listen to the wild beastmen below, put down your weapons, stop resisting, raise your hands and surrender, we will treat the prisoners preferentially."
Just when the Beast Emperor asked the officer to leave, the adjutant who had heard the order from the sky began to persuade him to surrender.
"Surrender is absolutely impossible, we wild beasts will never surrender." The beast king roared towards the sky.
Will the wild beasts really not surrender?
Of course not.
The only one who can't surrender is him, the Beast King.
As an emperor, he surrendered and became a prisoner. Firstly, he could not pass on his dignity. Secondly, he was ambitious, so he was not willing to give up. Finally, he was also afraid of death.
The adjutant who shouted in the sky didn't pay attention to the words of the Beast Emperor, but continued to go around the forest to persuade him to surrender for a while, and flew back to Wenren to return after receiving no response.
"It seems that they still have a fluke mentality. If they don't really come, they don't know the pain."
There was coldness in the eyes of others.
"Bring a thousand people and set fire to the outside of the woods. I want to see if they will be so tough surrounded by flames."
"yes."
The adjutant left again, and this time he took more people to set the fire.
