Lao Xu rushed forward, and Hu Xiaodong behind him felt like he was facing a formidable enemy.
In order to better carry out the following battle, Hu Xiaodong immediately ordered: "Old Wen, turn on the flashlight, stand behind me, and shine in the corridor!"
This was Hu Xiaodong's instinctive and subconscious order.
If the current situation was not illuminated, it would obviously be unreliable to have so many people crowded together at the corner of such a narrow corridor.
Hu Xiaodong arranged for the light to confirm how many animals were in the corridor.
Secondly, it also allows the team members to have a relatively good field of vision to fight and guard against the surrounding animals.
As for his arrangement for Lao Wen Zhaoming, to be honest, Hu Xiaodong didn't think too much about anything else. He just subconsciously said the name.
Maybe he was worried about Wen Tianming's safety deep down, so he ordered Wen Tianming's name to be revealed at this juncture.
Because it is obvious that whoever is arranged to provide lighting at the moment is relatively safe.
After all, Hu Xiaodong arranged for Wen Tianming to stand behind him, so he was in the relatively safest place.
With Hu Xiaodong here, he would definitely not let the beasts threaten the people behind him.
If any beast wants to deal with Wen Tianming, it must pass through Hu Xiaodong.
After hearing Hu Xiaodong's instructions, Wen Tianming didn't say anything. He immediately retreated behind Hu Xiaodong, took out his flashlight, and turned on the light.
Just as Hu Xiaodong subconsciously named him, Wen Tianming didn't think much about Hu Xiaodong's arrangement.
He just instinctively followed the orders given by his superiors. After all, Hu Xiaodong was the captain of his team.
In the one-day training given to them by Lao Xu, the most emphasized thing was to keep still.
Wen Tianming never thought about whose safety Hu Xiaodong was trying to protect by doing this.
On the contrary, what he thought was that standing behind Hu Xiaodong could ensure the safety of Hu Xiadong.
There is nothing wrong with this idea, but Wen Tianming ignored the fact that the beasts behind him had thunder eyes, and Xu Renjie was paying for it.
With the two of them here, Wen Tianming would basically not be asked to take care of him.
Their real battlefield was the corridor in front of them. They had to block the influx of beasts in the corridor so that Lao Xu and the others could buy time to kill the beasts upstairs and clear the passage.
As soon as the flashlight was turned on, Wen Tianming quickly turned on the light and rushed into the corridor.
Almost at the same time as he turned on the light, a dark figure rushed out of the aperture!
"Watch out!!"
Hu Xiaodong has good eyesight. He immediately caught the danger and immediately alerted everyone.
Of course, the bowstring he had already drawn was immediately released.
The sharp arrow whistled and came out of the string.
"call out!"
"puff!"
The next second, the charging beast fell to the ground, flipped and rolled, and was held up by the feet of the team members until it was in front of the new army formation.
Hu Xiaodong didn't pay attention to the result of the beast rolling over.
After shooting an arrow, he followed up and drew the bow again.
What Hu Xiaodong can do now is to delay the beast from rushing out of the corridor as much as possible.
He was very sure that with their current strength, it was unrealistic to completely eliminate the beasts in the corridor.
After drawing the bow, Hu Xiaodong fired straight at him.
Whether he hits or misses, whether he can kill them or not is not a question he considers.
His shooting now is just a matter of luck.
It would be best to be able to kill with one strike just like Shicai.
If not, it doesn't matter. As long as the impact of the arrow itself can hit the beast, it can cause trouble for him.
Hu Xiaodong didn't want to kill the beasts, he just wanted to delay their breakout.
Time is still time. Ever since they went out to the present, time has been the most scarce thing for them.
Just as Hu Xiaodong expected, in such a shooting state that only seeks quantity, not quality, it is impossible to kill animals with arrows.
However, fortunately, the corridor is so wide, and the range of Hu Xiaodong's arrow attack is so large. Compared with the density of animals inside, it is quite easy for him to hit the animals.
Even if the remaining team members are now replaced by novices, as long as they can draw the bow string and aim slightly along the light, they can basically hit the beast.
But again, there is a fundamental difference between hitting with one arrow and killing with one arrow.
It's easy to kill nearby creatures with arrows, and it will always cause damage to the beasts if hit.
But when faced with a monster like a zombie, if you don't hit him on the head, the rest of your shots won't be able to kill him.
And in this situation, how easy is it to accurately hit the beast's head?
Can Hu Xiaodong do it at the level of a professional athlete? The answer is obviously yes.
If Hu Xiaodong really wanted to hit the beast and send it back to the west, he would definitely have the strength to do so.
But the problem is, to do this kind of thing, you need to be calm and adjust your aim.
And obviously, this is a very time-consuming thing.
However, what the New Army currently lacks is time.
Compared to Hu Xiaodong, who was killing the beasts one by one with precision and waiting for all the beasts to rush out to surround them, Hu Xiaodong hoped to adopt a rapid attack state, not seeking to kill, but only seeking to block the strategy.
The second arrow still hit the beast, and the beast rushed out driven by inertia.
This time the beast was obviously not dead, but none of that mattered. After the beast glided out, it was still stopped by the team members.
The team members didn't care whether the beast was dead or alive. In short, after stopping the beast, they immediately raised their swords and attacked it together.
The team members also understand that their current physical fitness is not suitable for fighting with animals.
Once there is a fight, the consequences will be disastrous.
The previous unbearable situations were enough to illustrate the problem.
Nowadays, when fighting against beasts, except for Lao Xu, Lei Tong, and Hu Xiaodong, they basically have no chance of winning.
Therefore, due to human instinct, it is rare for team members to work together to kill the enemy.
If one person can't defeat the beast, let's use the power of the group.
Just like that, he killed three beasts in succession.
Hu Xiaodong's long-distance kills, combined with the team members' joint efforts to block him at close range, were quite acceptable.
At least three zombies were almost killed by them.
But the problem is that killing three zombies cannot change the current predicament of the New Army.
The beasts they have to face are by no means as simple as these three beasts.
It is easy to tell from the increasingly obvious movements in the corridor that there are many zombies inside.
Hu Xiaodong's brows also became more and more frowned. He knew that his biggest threat had not yet arrived, and the real crisis was yet to come.
Wen Tianming's handful of lights still can't fully illuminate the interior.
So so far, Hu Xiaodong is still unable to determine how many animals are in the corridor.
But you can be sure that the quantity is definitely huge.
Don't look at it now that they can barely cope with the beasts and hold the door.
But when the beasts gather in the back and attack together, whether they can hold the front is...a big question.
There is no doubt that the number of beasts will continue to increase.
On the other hand, Hu Xiaodong is currently the only one who can provide firepower.
Relying on just one bow and arrow to delay the beast's attack... It's okay if one beast comes out alone, but as long as they attack in groups, the delaying method Hu Xiaodong is taking now is not advisable.
