About half an hour later, a burst of footsteps stepped on fallen leaves, and the sound of grass came from a distance.
Fang Xiaoyue, who was meditating, immediately quit the meditation and focused on the direction from which the sound came.
Not long after, a low whine came, and a huge black mastiff appeared. In the forest, the black mastiff seemed to be very excited. Even the soldiers dragging the leash behind it could not hold it back. He kept shouting, "Slow down, slow down."
What followed was a group of Beiyue infantry armed with scimitars and bucklers, followed by four shooters, two of whom were armed with White Moon black crossbows and two with rifle bows, totaling thirty people and one dog.
Undoubtedly, the Beiyue Army who came to search the mountain was very cautious. Each search team was said to have strong troops and a reasonable mix.
There are mastiffs in front to find the way, infantry with scimitars and bucklers in the back, and archers in the back who can launch long-range attacks.
Under such circumstances, a team of young men with a similar number could not be their opponents at all.
Of course, it was because the search team was large and cautious, otherwise Taoyuan Valley would have been discovered by them long ago.
After Fang Xiaoyue hesitated for a moment, she let go of the mastiff and the dog handler walking in the front, and then let go of the sword and shield handler behind them, until the four shooters carefully walked to a place less than five meters away from her.
He suddenly burst into flames!
The four shooters didn't even have time to react. They only saw a ball of grass explode and something rush toward them. Then their vision went dark and they lost consciousness completely.
After seizing the opportunity and taking away the four shooters with a flurry of blows, Fang Xiaoyue crossed the path and fell into the dense grass and disappeared.
He has gradually mastered the essence of monk fighting.
Then just go in and out quickly, seize the opportunity and do a close attack. No matter whether you kill the enemy or not, just get out of the way and look for the next opportunity!
To put it simply, in his opinion, the monk profession is more inclined to the assassin, but it is more durable than the assassin in combat and can better stick to the enemy.
If you look for a good opportunity, you can put the enemy into a dilemma and eventually die in a panic!
If he is entangled with the enemy like a human shield, fighting at close quarters without retreating at all, the monk really cannot withstand the output of a large group of enemies.
Even if it was just the Beiyue infantry in front of him now, Fang Xiaoyue would still be somewhat in danger if the opponent seized the opportunity.
Even if his monk level has reached level 9, his physical body's resistance to swords and guns is only limited to weakening some damage, and cannot play a fundamental defensive role.
In other words, if it is powerful, a kitchen knife can still cut through his skin, not to mention a machete.
Hearing the movement behind them, the infantrymen in front all turned their heads and saw only the four shooters lying on the ground with unknown life or death.
Even though a few infantrymen came over to check the situation.
But at this moment, there was only a sound of scurrying grass, followed by the furious roar and low cry of the mastiff.
When they turned to look ahead, they found that the mastiff and the dog handler were already lying in a pool of blood.
Just using his own speed and the cover of the grass, Fang Xiaoyue shuttled through the grass and easily took out the long-range attack force and guide of the search team.
Turning this search party into blind men.
They only saw people on their own side falling down one after another, but they couldn't see what the enemy looked like. It was more scary in this vast mountain.
For a time, the morale of the search team dropped sharply.
Seeing the morale drop, the captain of the search team, a military commander wearing iron armor, said decisively: "Team of three, search separately!"
Following the order from the Marquis, the remaining twenty people immediately divided into eight teams and searched in the direction of the sound.
Once they find an enemy, they will pounce on it like a fierce dog and tear the enemy into pieces!
This has nothing to do with morale, but the experience gained from fighting on the battlefield.
Facing strong enemies, we must move forward bravely!
But in the following time, the military lord's face became increasingly ugly.
The screams that kept coming and going meant that a Beiyue soldier was secretly attacked and killed.
In the end, the morale inspired completely collapsed, and only seven people were left retreating from the grass and surrounding the military lord. They were all frightened, just like little wild boars being targeted by tigers.
At this moment, Fang Xiaoyue quietly picked up the bow that fell on the ground.
The Beiyue Army has many search teams entering Shiwanda Mountain. He does not need to exhaust all his strength in one battle. In that case, it will be impossible to stop the search team's progress.
How to better prevent the enemy from advancing is a difficult problem, but he also has a plan, but the plan in his mind still needs to be verified in practice.
A snapping sound came from the sky, and the military princes who were protected by the group were startled, and saw an arrow piercing a big tree, about five or six meters away from them.
Fang Xiaoyue, who shot an arrow and hid again, couldn't help but cover her eyes when she saw the result.
His archery skills are terrible.
Or should I say he has never practiced archery.
This is not surprising. Archery requires long-term practice to produce results.
Take the army in this plane as an example. Archers need to be selected from recruits. Those with long arms and thick shoulders will be preferred!
In other words, recruits with long arms and thick shoulders are given priority to be selected as archers.
They first need to undergo three months of preliminary training to familiarize themselves with the various parts of the bow and arrow, the methods of drawing the bow, training the strength of their arms, etc. After three months, the archers will be divided into upper, middle and lower grades according to their arm strength.
The upper-class archers hold nine buckets of bows and are selected into the elite, the middle-class archers hold eight buckets of bows and are selected into the regular army, and the lower-class archers hold seven buckets of bows and go on inspections in various places.
In the next year, archers mainly trained the strength of their arms, trained their eyesight by hanging copper coins, and shot fixed targets.
In the next three years, he gradually started shooting moving targets and then participated in actual combat.
In other words, in this plane, it takes at least four years to train a qualified archer.
Although Fang Xiaoyue's physical fitness is far superior to those of the archers, the first time she shoots an arrow, she can only shoot the arrow out. As for the accuracy, there is no accuracy at all.
Of course, just such an arrow still frightened those Beiyue soldiers.
In the following time, Fang Xiaoyue also practiced archery.
But after shooting all the sixty arrows in the two quivers, none of them hit the target.
This gust of arrows flew like a gust of wind and rain, frightening the Northern Moon soldiers so much that all of them, including the military lords, rolled and crawled towards the way they came from.
No way, no one knows whether the enemy is deliberately playing tricks on them or whether they are really bad at archery, but watching arrows shoot from a distance, and then pierce the trees and ground around them without thinking, the most important thing is As Fang Xiaoyue became familiar with bows and arrows, the accuracy of the arrows she shot improved slightly, and some arrows even flew several centimeters outside their bodies.
