Chapter 1170: Encounter Battle

Xiong felt extremely nervous and kept using the Telescope to look, but the fog was too thick; he could only see things within a dozen meters in front of him, and anything further away was completely obscured.

Because this place could barely be considered a small valley, the fog was exceptionally thick, and Xiong had been waiting for the sun to rise; as long as the sun rose, the fog would naturally disperse, though it could not be too fast, as he had to wait for everyone to reach their designated positions and hide well, otherwise, if the thick fog cleared too early, they would not be able to achieve their goal.

Xuanyuan and the others were also nervous; this battle could be said to determine the final outcome of this year's fighting, and if they won, their territory would be considered to have expanded to this point, and next year's starting point would be here.

Furthermore, this battle could yield enough benefits, because the group of enemies opposite was clearly very wealthy and used quite a few metal Weapons; they were already the elite tribe of the Shennong Clan, and if they could be defeated, it would be a serious blow to the Shennong Clan.

Xiong did not even dare to take out the Bombs now; such thick fog, even thicker than the fog of the past two days, was so thick that it was abnormal, and if the Bombs were taken out and set up directly, they would absolutely get damp right now, which was no exaggeration, as the humidity was too high and clothes would soon become damp, so the Bombs could not be risked at such a time.

And today's thick, somewhat strange fog made Xiong feel a bit uneasy; after all, in a situation where nothing could be seen, there was truly no sense of security.

Moreover, Xiong also thought that such thick fog was a good opportunity for them to attack, but wasn't it also a good opportunity for the opposite side to attack?

He could no longer see any people, nor could he hear any human sounds, and Xiong even had the thought of ordering them to return, because it was indeed too strange and the silence was chilling.

Shaoyin also felt that something was wrong; at this time, although it was said that one could not go out hunting, there should have been human sounds, so why was there no sound at all from the opposite side? This was not reasonable at all.

However, even though it felt wrong, they still had to advance; their Crossbows were hung at their waists, and they were advancing quickly with empty hands.

Shaoyin was not only paying attention to his feet but also keeping an eye on the front at all times; just over a dozen meters ahead, Shaoyin sensed some shadows moving and constantly approaching.

Shaoyin stopped immediately, and the Soldiers beside him noticed Shaoyin's movement and also stopped immediately; they all noticed the movement ahead, and then they all immediately unhooked the Crossbows from their waists and carefully hooked on the Arrows.

Because they were advancing in a half-crouch, although it was strenuous and caused back pain, their profile was small, and in the thick fog, they were less conspicuous, so they had not yet been exposed.

As the shadows got closer and closer, Shaoyin and the others were certain that the people opposite were the enemies, the people of the Jiang Surname Tribe; it seemed their estimation was wrong, as it was not just them preparing to attack during this weather, the Jiang Surname Tribe was the same.

If that was the case, the previous plans could no longer be used, nor could they retreat; if they dared to retreat now, the previous situation would repeat itself, and they would be hunted down, a situation Shaoyin could not accept.

So he was already prepared to attack immediately, regardless of how many people were on the other side; their own preparations should be more thorough, as this time Huaxia had brought out everything they had in reserve.

Even with such an accident, there was nothing to fear, so now they had all raised their Bow and Crossbows; all the Huaxia Soldiers had discovered the other side, while the other side had not yet discovered the Huaxia Soldiers who were completely hidden.

As the figures on the opposite side became clearer and gradually entered the visible range, some Soldiers fired directly; a scream came from the thick fog, and this scream was like a signal for the attack, and all the Huaxia Soldiers began to attack simultaneously, with one wave of fire, the shadows on the opposite side were suddenly reduced by half.

After the shooting ended, there was rapid reloading, and then they continued to fire; after that, all that could be heard were screams, and the charging Soldiers behind the Crossbowmen, upon hearing the screams, felt their hearts tighten, and then they all immediately stood up and began to charge quickly, no longer advancing slowly.

After two rounds of shooting, no one was seen coming over from the opposite side, and only screams could be heard; everyone was a little anxious and wanted to walk over to check.

But Shaoyin felt something was not right and immediately shouted to stop them; then came the sound of piercing through the air, and one Spear after another flew out of the thick fog and stuck into the ground, because the distance was misjudged, and perhaps it was also because those Jiang Surname Tribe Soldiers, in order to avoid the Huaxia attack, had retreated quite a bit, so the throwing distance of the Spears did not reach the position of Shaoyin and the others.

Shaoyin was quite fortunate that they had not advanced, otherwise they would have been in trouble; now they could no longer see the opposite side at all, so Shaoyin said directly: "All archers, full draw and fire at the front!"

The shooting range of bows was much further than that of crossbows, and with so many bows firing together, some were bound to hit the enemy; as long as one enemy cried out, he would be able to judge the enemy's position.

Shaoyin knew how far a Spear could be thrown, but the enemy did not know how far their bows could shoot; this was the cognitive gap.

The archers drew fully and fired a volley, but there was no sound; based on this, Shaoyin immediately judged that the opposite side was already more than a hundred meters away from them, and it was even possible that they had retreated immediately after throwing the Spears.

Knowing this, Shaoyin had everyone advance quickly and finish off the wounded enemies along the way; they had to advance at least fifty meters, as the opposite side would not expect Shaoyin and the others to be able to advance so quickly, and the Spear throwing must have been aimed at nearly a hundred meters, which would just allow them to avoid the Spears.

Once the order for a rapid advance was given, the charging Soldiers and Crossbowmen joined together and moved forward, running almost with their waists bent; after a dozen meters, they saw blood all over the ground and some enemies moaning, the kind that could not escape; seeing this, Shaoyin immediately ordered people to finish them off, but such shrill screams were also reporting their position to the enemy, so they had to continue moving forward as quickly as possible.
