Chapter 60: Surrounded by Wolves (Part 2)
Dong Li Mao carefully looked at the small dots emitting a dim blue light, and indeed, there were more on the right side than on the left. He and Bald Horse were both on the left side. Perhaps the wild wolf had noticed that the defense line was weaker on the right side, as two assault team members were injured over there.
"Too cunning! The beast is even smarter than humans!" Dong Li Mao couldn't help but admire the wild wolf's observational skills and decisive action deployment ability. He said, "Everyone listen to me! We'll also change our defensive position, follow my orders, I'll count one, two, three, then we'll all turn left together." He decisively made adjustments to the defensive personnel's positions, a basic quality that a commander should possess: being able to discover and adjust battle deployments in response to changes in enemy situations. "One, two, three! Turn!"
The advantage of the password is that it allows the people who hear it to take consistent action, after Dong Li Mao shouted out the password, everyone took a step to the left, very neatly, without disrupting the defensive formation.
Just as Dong Li Mao and the others began to move their feet to the left, it seemed that the lead wolf saw an opportunity to attack, and let out a long howl for the first time. Before Dong Li Mao and the others could fully change positions, the wolf pack had already pounced, this time not attacking simultaneously from all sides, but starting from the right side, while the left side was still waiting, seemingly waiting for the right side to break through before pouncing, or waiting for the people on the left to go support the right side before launching an attack.
"Hold your positions! No one is allowed to leave without my order!" Dong Li Mao shouted loudly, realizing the wolf pack commander's intention, just before the wild wolves pounced on them.
This time, Gu Hao and Xu Hongming were facing the wolf pack head-on, while Dong Li Mao and Bald Horse were on the side. As a result, they didn't encounter the center of the wolf pack's attack. It seemed that only a feint was made in their direction, without getting close to them, and it wasn't as fierce as last time.
"These dogs are really cunning!" Dong Li Mao and Bald Horse didn't dare to take the initiative, they could only stand still and watch the wolves in front of them howl, seeing them pounce forward and then retreat, then pounce forward again and retreat.
Gu Hao and Xu Hongming stood side by side, fortunately both of them knew martial arts, even if they were empty-handed and bare-fisted, they would still be able to beat the wolves that pounced on them until they howled.
What's more, both of them were holding machetes, which are deadly weapons.
Xu Hongming held a torch in his left hand and swung a machete with his right, like a madman who had killed until he saw red. Almost every time the machete struck out, it was accompanied by a flash of blood, and a wolf would fall to the ground. The wolves that pounced on him also seemed to have their primitive ferocity stirred up, and they charged forward one after another, some attacking Xu Hongming from three sides, others biting at his left arm, but Xu Hongming was indeed formidable, using his feet and hands together to prevent a single wolf from breaking through the circle.
There were no fewer wolves in front of Gu Hao than there were in front of Xu Hongming, but his hands and feet weren't as agile as Xu Hongming's. He had great strength, but also many flaws. A wolf darted from his left side towards Li Yuanyuan, who was standing with her hands gripping a knife, and leapt straight for her throat.
Li Yuyuan let out a loud cry, swung her machete in a horizontal slash, and severed the left front leg of the wolf that was pouncing on her throat. The wolf yelped and rolled to the ground.
Dong Li Mao heard Li Yuanyuan's scream, turned his head to take a look, saw the wolf rolling on the ground, and then shouted loudly: "Sister, kill it!"
Just as Dong Li Mao turned his head, a wild wolf that had been feigning an attack in front of him seemed to see an opportunity and suddenly sprang up, flying towards his back. Another wolf also leapt into the air, attacking Dong Li Mao's left side, seemingly thinking that the knife in his left hand was shorter and easier to grab.
"Be careful, Jia Cheng!" Li Yuanyuan killed the wolf that was rolling around in front of her with one knife and saw two wolves pouncing towards Dong Limao, shouting out to remind him.
Dong Li Mao didn't have time to turn around, so he arched his body backwards, like a football player doing an overhead kick, and with a loud "whoosh" sound, he kicked the wolf's abdomen with the tip of his foot, sending it flying over Li Yuanyuan's head, passing over the heads of the people behind him, and crashing into a large tree with a thud, killing it instantly. Meanwhile, another wolf pounced on his left side, but Dong Li Mao, as soon as his feet touched the ground, swung out his right hand and chopped the wolf in half at the waist.
Bald Horse originally wanted to draw his sword to assist Dong Li Mao, but what he saw made him exclaim in surprise. In the blink of an eye, Dong Li Mao had not only flipped and kicked a wild wolf but also chopped off its waist. Bald Horse seemed to be watching a play, his mouth agape, eyes wide with wonder, so shocked that he couldn't even cheer.
"Be careful..." In the moment when Guang Tou Ma was stunned, Dong Li Mao saw a wild wolf pouncing on him. With a loud shout, he kicked out with one leg and sent the wolf flying into the air like a soccer ball, landing in the midst of several other wolves, where it stretched out its four legs and died. The other wolves, which had been preparing to attack, seemed to be intimidated by Dong Li Mao's incredible skill and did not dare to pounce forward again.
Deng Li Mao had already helped him out of the predicament, and the remaining wild wolves did not dare to charge forward again. Even the group of wolves in front of Gou Hao and Xu Hongming that had not died yet began to slowly retreat backwards.
It's really amazing, these wolves seem to be well-trained. Even when retreating backwards, they don't turn around and run away, but instead retreat in an organized and orderly manner. Some of the wolves take advantage of the situation to launch a forward attack, while the rest slowly retreat backwards. This is what military books call "advancing by retreating".
"They're intimidated!" Baldy Ma laughed and said: "This bunch of beasts is afraid, being scared off by your mighty move just now, Big Brother, they don't dare to attack again!"
"Everyone, don't let your guard down! The wolf pack may launch a third attack!" Dong Li Mao Cai didn't believe the wolf pack would be intimidated by him. He had seen that the organizer of the other side was not an ordinary guy, they were adjusting their organization's attacking strategy step by step.
Wolves also have a bloodthirsty nature; those with bloodshot eyes that have been killed will not meekly surrender and retreat.
As expected, the wolf pack suddenly dispersed and attacked from both sides again, this time completely different from the previous two times. The lead wolf did not howl, but was extremely swift, so fast that Dong Li Mao's words had just fallen when the attack began. Moreover, it was a group of wolves that acted together, almost all of them, baring their teeth and rushing towards them. This might be their last fight, so they were even more frantic than before.
Everyone has to deal with more than two wolves.
"Kill!" Dong Li Mao was completely stirred up by the wild wolf's high morale, he shouted loudly, chopping down the first wolf to pounce on him, then kicked his left foot at the wolf rushing towards his right foot. His left hand flew out with a military knife, helping one of the guides under Guang Tou Ma kill a wolf. Now, his left hand was unarmed, so he used his fist to smash into the belly of another wolf that pounced on him.
A pack of wolves made a final attack, and Dong Li Mao and his team also made a final attack. As the saying goes, "when two armies meet, the brave one wins." When Dong Li Mao let out a loud roar with the word "kill", it seemed that his heroic spirit had infected others. At this critical moment, what was needed was someone who could stand up and ignite the beast-like killing spirit within themselves. It can be said that Dong Li Mao's one roar awakened the animalistic killing spirit within everyone, including Li Yuanyuan, and they all fought bravely against the wolves.
Unfortunately, this group of organized and disciplined wolves encountered a Dong Li Mao who was getting stronger when encountering strong opponents and would not die. They were doomed to perish.
After all the wild wolves in front of him were killed, a relatively sturdy wolf stood in front of Dong Li Mao at the root of a large tree, using its eyes that emitted a dim blue light to stare quietly at the leader of the human beings in front of it. It lowered its high head, let out a few low howls, turned around and pounced towards the big tree behind it, hitting its head on the tree root, unable to die for a while, lying there with convulsions in all four limbs.
