Chapter 1365 Come Again

Jiang Yanhai also smiled, "One general will be successful, so for the sake of your honor, you should let more soldiers live."

"I will." Lin Dianshuai nodded immediately, and then she turned her head and looked at Jiang Yanhai seriously: "Colonel Jiang, I heard from General Deng that you don't seem to believe that Taotie was wiped out by us?"

"No, it's not that I don't believe that Taotie was eliminated by you, I just said that the Taotie led by this beast king was eliminated, but when will Taotie only have one beast king?" Jiang Yanhai said calmly.

"What do you mean?" Lin Dianshuai's expression changed immediately.

"Lin Dianshuai, let me ask you a few questions." Jiang Yanhai didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

"Tell me." Lin Dianshuai said immediately.

"First of all, let's not talk about other things. Let's just say one thing. Although gluttony is a monster, it is said that the gods punished the world. Then, the beast king needs a lot of food to reproduce, so how much food can it eat? What is its size? I've seen it all, one person? Ten people? A hundred people? Or a thousand people? Even if it can eat a thousand people, does it need to go to Bianliang?" Jiang Yanhai asked the first question first.

Lin Dianshuai was stunned for a moment, and then she immediately frowned. They knew more about Taotie from historical records, and they had only fought against Taotie a few times. Although they eliminated the beast king, they were far from knowing much about it. .

"I think you should send someone to dissect the beast king. Although it can eat a lot of food, I don't think it can eat 100 people." Jiang Yanhai smiled and said without waiting for her answer.

"All the gluttons that died in battle were taken away by other living gluttons. According to historical records, these dead gluttons were also used as food."

"Who is supplying so much food?" Jiang Yanhai asked the most critical question.

"Perhaps, those ordinary gluttons also need food, but we haven't seen it before, or they just give food to the beast king first, and then they eat it themselves." Lin Dianshuai raised his head and said.

"Well, it makes sense. From a biological point of view, ordinary gluttons also need food to supplement energy." Jiang Yanhai nodded. What Lin Dianshuai said can actually be analyzed by Jiang Yanhai and the others. There is no perpetual motion machine in this world. Even ultra-high-tech products like star gates require energy to open.

If Taotie could exist forever without eating, and just feed a Beastmaster, it would not need so many people at all.

It's okay to commit suicide and feed a few to the Beastmaster. Wouldn't this allow unlimited reproduction? So what Lin Dianshuai said is very likely to be true. These ordinary gluttons also need to eat, but they must give priority to the beast king.

"Biology?" Lin Dianshuai was stunned for a moment.

"It's a theory of studying all animals and plants." Jiang Yanhai roughly explained, and then asked the second question with a smile, "Then Lin Dianshuai, after getting enough food, why did the beast king choose to be on the battlefield?" Eat, so as to give you a chance?"

Lin Dianshuai was stunned for a moment, and just as she was about to say something, Jiang Yanhai continued directly: "A Beastmaster who knows how to feint to attract our attention, secretly plays tricks on Chen Cang, and sneaks up on our vital points, targeting the commander, do you think it can sense the battlefield? in danger?"

"If it lets its gluttons carry thousands or even tens of thousands of dead bodies from Bianliang to leave Bianliang temporarily, find a place to feed it, and then it will reproduce on a large scale, and then attack Bianliang, you Think we can stop it?"

Lin Dianshuai's face was stunned by Jiang Yanhai's question, because these two questions...she really couldn't answer them.

The previous intelligence has told everyone on the Great Wall that Lin Dianshuai and the others probably have a way to eliminate the Beastmaster.

If the Beastmaster's head is not working well and he is just a beast, then the way of eating on the battlefield is justifiable.

But just like what Jiang Yanhai said, do you think a Beastmaster who can even master the art of war like darkening Chen Cang will not be aware of the danger? Or does it mean that after it can run for eight hundred miles, it will be so hungry that it will die immediately if it doesn't eat? No matter how you look at it, the reason is nonsense.

"How many times did you attack the Beastmaster?" Jiang Yanhai asked another question with a smile.

"Three times, the first two times were stopped by its guard Tao Tie, and the third time it succeeded." Lin Dianshuai frowned and said.

"Then, given how smart this beast king is, if it might not be aware of the danger the first time, why did it stay where it was after being attacked and let you attack?" Jiang Yanhai asked tentatively.

The eyebrows on Lin Dianshuai's handsome face are almost twisted into a knot, yes, why? This doesn't make sense.

Jiang Yanhai didn't ask, and she didn't think about it herself, but when Jiang Yanhai said this, she felt that there was definitely something wrong with it.

"Colonel Jiang, if you have any thoughts, please speak up." Lin Dianshuai took a deep breath and raised his head seriously.

"I think they will definitely make a comeback, or in other words, I think they are more than just a beast king." Jiang Yanhai expressed his guess, "As for why it is in a hurry to replenish food, I can't figure it out for the time being. If the transported corpse If the speed can be a little faster.”

That's right, Jiang Yanhai and Lin Dianshuai asked for Taotie's corpse, but Lin Dianshuai and the others came here in a hurry, but the corpse must be transported by a horse-drawn carriage, and the speed is not so fast. In this era of 800 miles, it may take at least a few days to arrive. .

As for whether the corpse would stink, Jiang Yanhai and the others had no choice for the time being, because there were no gluttonous corpses on the Great Wall.

It would be best if the corpse of Taotie could be dissected, preferably even the corpse of the Beastmaster, but now it seems that the corpse of the Beastmaster is probably gone, mainly because it was blown into many incomplete parts , has been burned by the city guards, fearing a plague.

"I have already sent people to meet the convoy transporting the corpses, and I will make them speed up and move forward day and night. As for what you said, Colonel Jiang, I hope this is not a fact. I will step up the patrol of the Great Wall." Lin Dianshuai took a deep breath. In a serious tone, he opened his mouth and said.

"This is the best." Jiang Yanhai nodded.

"Colonel Jiang, I hope your guess is wrong." Lin Dianshuai looked at Jiang Yanhai seriously and said.

"I hope so too." Jiang Yanhai also looked at her and smiled.

...

It's just that things backfired. Jiang Yanhai's crow's mouth was directly fulfilled three days later, or... it wasn't a crow's mouth, because it was a reasonable reasoning based on facts.

Otherwise, too many things will be interpreted differently, and you can't blame the editor for these mistakes. If this is a movie, it's fine, but this is a real world, so there must be a reason for such things to happen .

On the morning of the third day, following the stern cry of "discover gluttony" from the patrolling soldiers, the atmosphere of the entire Great Wall, which had been relaxed for a few days, suddenly became dignified, and all the Shadowless Forbidden Army once again rushed up the city wall in an orderly manner , began to prepare for defense.

Naturally, Jiang Yanhai also rushed to the city wall, but when Jiang Yanhai and the others climbed the city wall this time, together with Jiang Yanhai, Lin Dianshuai and other generals, they couldn't help but gasped!

What catches the eye is densely packed green gluttons. The densely packed gluttons are not scary, they haven't seen them before.

But the frightening thing was that the ones at the front were the guards Taotie who they had seen thousands of times before and guarded beside the Beast King! They are those guards who can resist super long-range attacks from trebuchets with bone shields around their heads!

At this moment, there are at least several thousand Taotie guards! What's even more frightening is that they spread out their bone shields to form a fully erected protective shield, and under their tall bodies, there are densely packed and huge numbers of ordinary gluttons.

"I..." To be honest, Jiang Yanhai wanted to swear.

"Long-range attack!" Lin Dianshuai became anxious and gave the order directly!

The surrounding war drums resounded throughout the Great Wall in an instant, and the catapult machine on the city wall started to operate again, and hundreds of burning stones were thrown out again.

"Boom" "Boom" Countless stones directly bombarded the bone shields that guarded Taotie.

It's just that most of the flame-burning stones basically returned in vain, and they were also effective, mainly because the bone shields of the Taotie guards now presented a flat surface, and their ability to resist blows was naturally weak.

And when they protected the Beastmaster before, they formed the bone shield into a perfect hemispherical shape to protect the Beastmaster, and most of the force of the trebuchet was directly removed when the stone hit it.

But even so, some of the stones that worked were just breaking open a few effective bone shields, and most of them were useless.

These guardian gluttons were running crazily. When they got close to a certain distance, the trebuchet could no longer attack and entered the minimum attack distance of the trebuchet.

Even the catapults are useless, let alone the bows and arrows of the Eagle Army.

"Lin Dianshuai, tell the Crane Army to stop sending them to death indifferently, and stop carrying out zipline attacks." Jiang Yanhai said directly.

Lin Dianshuai who was next to him was silent for a while, she knew that under such circumstances, the zipline attack was useless at all.

"Order the crane army to retreat and assist in the attack." Lin Dianshuai directly issued the order.

"Yes! The crane army retreats and assists in the attack!" The messenger directly conveyed Lin Dianshuai's order.

"Colonel Jiang, what do you think they want to do?" Lin Dianshuai asked the Taotie guards who had already approached the city wall, but the Shadowless Forbidden Army had no way to deal with them for the time being.

"You'll know soon, get ready for close combat." Jiang Yanhai smiled wryly.

Jiang Yanhai didn't explain, because he didn't need to explain.

The Taotie guards who had rushed to the bottom of the city wall immediately unfolded their bone shields three by one, and then arranged them in a straight line extending nearly two hundred meters.

Under some Taotie guards standing near the city wall, ordinary Taotie directly stacked their bodies on top of each other, serving as a support point for these Taotie guards.

Then the second group of guards, Taotie, climbed up directly on the bone shields of the first group of guards, and then approached the city wall again, accumulating a second layer.

The second layer is shorter than the first, and they form a full bevel.

In this way, layer by layer, these guardian gluttons are continuously superimposed, and the part near the city wall is superimposed crazily at a speed that can be seen with the naked eye.

Judging from this speed, at most ten minutes, a complete triangular slope will be formed, and in the distance, the ordinary Taotie who stopped outside the attack distance of the trebuchet has waited too long.
