I’m The King

Chapter 652: : The wind and snow keeps the sky and the blade is cold (4)

Three thousand cavalry rushed out from the camp under heavy pressure. They were lined up neatly outside the range of the crossbow. The flags that were worn out were hunting and hunting in the wind and snow, slightly tilted, and the sound of war drums. The masterpiece, more than ten rides out of the crowd, all of them are holding chain hammers in their hands, and on the long iron chains, a watermelon-sized hammer with inverted teeth screams on Donghubing’s head. Before running to the obstacle, with a stern shout, the chain hammer flew out sharply, and slammed heavily on the top of the snow mound. With a bang, the upper half of the snow mound was gone. , Have you all the way!

Around the wrist, the chain hammer flew back, and the Donghu soldier circled a small arc before countless obstacles and passed by. Behind him, more than ten people painted the gourd in the same way. For a while, Baozhaizhi Next, the rumbling sound made a great sound, one after another hard ice mounds, under the bombardment of the chain hammer, turned into ice debris.

"Xiao Haizi!" Song Hongxin shouted, "Call!"

"Good!" Xiao Haizi above the watchtower agreed happily. He straightened up and lifted a strong bow beside him. Unlike ordinary people's bows, this bow is obviously unique to Xiao Haizi. , Slightly larger than the standard longbow in the military. Standing steadily with his feet in front of each other, holding the bow in his left hand and clasping the strings in his right hand, the bow is like a full moon, and a piercing arrow burst out in the eyes of countless people, tearing the wind and snow.

An Donghu soldier wielded a chain hammer and destroyed an ice mound. Just after retracting the long chain, the armor-piercing arrow arrived unexpectedly. With a sound, the sharp arrow tore through the cavalry's leather armor without hindrance. A few snowflakes suddenly appeared in the air, and the cavalry leaned back and planted from the horse.

"Okay!" A thunderous applause erupted from the city wall.

Xiao Haizi is not very old, but he is a famous marksman in this army. Before joining the army, he was a hunter in the mountains. The longbow in his hand is also a family-renowned longbow, which is stronger than the standard bow in the military. More importantly, it is something that Xiaohaizi has used for many years. If this longbow has great spirit, it is undoubtedly small. The spirit of Haizi when he held this bow was much higher than when he held other longbows.

Above this distance, the crossbow and the open-armed crossbow can be easily reached, but the opponent has only more than a dozen horses and horses. Unless you use a covering blow, it is difficult to shoot the opponent down, but shooting like this is too wasteful. , And the rest of the soldiers, shooting at this distance, are afraid of ten arrows, not to mention that the opponent is still moving quickly, even if they are standing still, they may not be able to shoot.

But letting his opponents destroy the obstacles under the fortress one by one and just watch, it would have hurt the morale of his soldiers and horses. Song Hongxin is very fortunate that he has a sharpshooter like Xiao Haizi, such a person. , Is not common in the military. Although only one person can be shot down at a time, the deterrence given to the enemy is not worse than that of the previous few days.

Amid the cheers of the crowd, Xiao Haizi flushed, exhaled, and shot two more arrows. The arrows rang and the people fell. Under the fortress, there were two more Donghu soldiers' corpses.

The Donghu Cavalry, who had rushed up to hit the ice mound unscrupulously before, could not help but slow down in morale, and slowed down involuntarily. Some cavalry put away their chain hammers, opened their bows and set up arrows, and fought back above the tower. However, they shot from the bottom to the top. The wind was also very strong in the air. The riding bow itself was softer than the step bow, and the arrow would fly to the top of the city. When he was a few meters away, he was weakened.

There was laughter again above the city, but this time, it was a mockery.

Shooting three arrows in a row, Xiao Haizi's face flushed, and the gasping sound was obvious. He lowered the longbow in his hand and gently rubbed the muscles of his right arm.

"Xiao Haizi, shoot, shoot again, at the critical moment, you can't be withered!" Down his head, the beard yelled.

Xiao Haizi smiled bitterly in return. Today’s wind and snow are very heavy. Above this distance, he must draw his bow full, and then calculate the wind speed and other factors that affect the feathers. He shoots three arrows in a row. The right arm is already sore. He usually shoots arrows. It's only half a month, but today's distance must be full.

"Don't talk nonsense about the beard, you think it's a normal soft bow, you can use it as many times as you want!" Song Hongxin shouted, "Let Xiao Haizi rest."

Beard blinked his eyes and thought for a while, "I'll rub him!" He ran under the watchtower and climbed up like an ape, rubbing his shoulders and arms eagerly for Xiao Haizi.

Xiao Haizi felt the extraordinary enthusiasm of the beard, looked at the expectant gaze of everyone in the city, and then looked at the Donghu cavalry who had begun to wreak havoc under the city again. He gritted his teeth and raised his long bow.

The roar of arrows sounded again, and after the three arrows, only two people were shot down, but the other arrow flew.

Xiao Haizi glanced at the beard apologetically, "Beard, it really doesn't work."

"Five, five!" Beard stretched out a big slap and shook it in front of Xiao Haizi, "It's pretty good."

"Xiao Haizi, don't force it, rest, don't shoot. Anyway, it's impossible to stop your opponent from clearing the obstacles. I also expect you to show off your power next, don't hurt it." Song Hongxin shouted above the city.

Without the threat of the opponent's marksman, Donghu soldiers cleared the obstacles faster and faster. Above the watchtower, Xiao Haizi watched as the snowman he had carefully built was beaten off his upper body with a hammer, and then hit the head with another hammer. Broken, could not help but spit in annoyance.

In the distance, under the general flag of Mo Yandu, a man dressed in the costume of General Donghu, but his face was obviously a general of the Central Plains. He spoke the half-baked Donghu dialect, and said to Mo Yan: "The opponent has only one marksman, shoot Not a few arrows, the threat is not big, but then we will enter the effective range of the opponent's crossbow arrows. General Mo Yandu, sent shield soldiers to step forward, and the cover team immediately cleared the remaining obstacles as quickly as possible. Right!"

"Okay!" Mo Yandu didn't hesitate at all, turned around and immediately ordered a few words.

The so-called big shield actually means that Mo Yandu sent people to cut down countless big trees and nailed them together one by one, making them into door panels. The style is simple and crude, but it is better than thick. The back of this door panel was nailed with wooden sticks that just happened to be gripped. Several Donghu soldiers grasped such sticks tightly, propped up the door panels, strode forward, and behind them, a large number of The dismounted Dong Hu Bing held a hammer and followed closely.

"The turtle is clever!" Song Hongxin muttered. "Preparation for the crossbow. First, I tore the broken door panels for me. The second round of the crossbow with arms opened. Check it out. Faster or slower, and those broken door panels will be supported again. This thing is worthless. How much does it cost? , How much they can make."

The howling crossbow fell from the head of the city. It was just one, and the thick wooden boards that had been nailed together were torn from the joints. The moment the wooden shield spread out, the crossbow began to cover and shoot, breaking the wooden shields. The open places were all covered under the crossbow arrows, and the screams were endless.

Amid the constant screams, the Donghu soldiers under the city also began to fight back. A feathered arrow flew up to the city’s head. It’s not much accurate, but it still suppressed the city. Soldiers no longer dared to expose their upper body unscrupulously, and the shooting of the crossbow arrows inevitably exposed the gap.

The rumbling sound was endless, and the obstacles were quickly destroyed in the process of the flying arrows. After the Donghu soldiers left nearly a hundred corpses, under the city, the densely packed soldiers of the East Army soldiers stood up. The ice and snow mounds have all become crushed ice on the ground.

The general next to Mo Yandu smiled, "General, you can withdraw people back, use the ranger to move forward, quickly rush around the wall, try to suppress the opponent's long-range strike, and push our crossbow. Recently, when the cavalry is running around the village, they must try to observe the opponent’s defensive gap. Although this village is strong, there are only more than 100 soldiers stationed. The opponent’s defense must be focused and hit the side. The point is, immediately launch a blow to affect the opponent's defense."

Mo Yanduo's words to this general were actually obedient. He turned his head and said to the bone beside him auspiciously: "Bone auspicious, you lead the army, do as General Li said."

Hundreds of cavalry, under the leadership of Bone Geely, ran wildly around the small stockade at high speed, drawing their bows and shooting at high speed. They are the strengths of the East Hu cavalry. Even if they can't shoot their opponents, as long as they cause damage to them, That's enough. In the village, there were only more than one hundred soldiers, and one wounded, the combat effectiveness was one point lower.

"Aim at the opponent's crossbow and destroy them for me!" Song Hongxin shouted loudly in the city. The bows and arrows under the city are not a big threat to the soldiers in the stockade, but the opponent's crossbow can cause damage to the wall. , Every time you shoot, you can shoot down a large ice wall. If you take too much, the ice and snow armor on the outside will be stripped off. The strength of the wall inside itself is not high. The attack is enough to penetrate the wall.

Regarding the accuracy and speed of shooting, the crossbow of the East Army is obviously better. One after another Donghu crossbow was shot apart by the city and turned into ruins. , But obviously this kind of crossbow has a lot of wear and tear in the army, and it doesn't feel distressed about this loss.

Bone auspicious flew back and saluted Mo Yandu: "General, found the opponent's weakness. At the northeast corner of the wall, there seems to be the highest and most dangerous place, but the counterattack is the weakest."

"General Li, what do you think?" Mo Yanduo glanced at bone auspiciousness and smiled: "The weakest place may not necessarily be the weakest. Perhaps, there may be enemy traps, so Ma Yanduo General Duh, I mean, do the opposite, and attack the southwest corner."

Gu Jili glanced at the general Li disapprovingly, "There are so many talks. We have attacked the southwest corner before, but we have suffered a lot. We only need to concentrate all the crossbows and blast the northeast corner. , Smashed the ice wall outside, and the stockade couldn't hold it anymore."

Mo Yandu looked at General Li, General Li smiled, and said, "General Mo Yandu, our temptation is enough today, why not just stop here and come back tomorrow."

"How can it be delayed until tomorrow!" Bone Jili yelled, "If you pass the police, the enemy can thicken their ice wall again, and our efforts today will be in vain."

"General Bone Jili, attack today, can you break the city?" General Li responded with a smile.

Gu Jili was shocked and shook his head, "I can't guarantee that this stockade is just a **** hedgehog, and it's tightly pierced."

"Then I can guarantee that tomorrow, I can break this stockade." General Li said confidently.

Hearing this, Mo Yandu nodded, and said to the bone auspiciously: "Retire~www.NovelMTL.com~ General Mo Yandu, before we retreat, we still have to do one thing. Destroy the watchtower." General Li Pointing to the towering watchtower, he said: "There is a glimpse of all our actions. If you ruin him, the enemy will be blinded. No matter how we move, it will be difficult for them to guess."

Mo Yan duo smiled, "That's simple, come here, concentrate all the crossbows, aim at the watchtower, and knock him down for me."

The enemy is retreating. Although Song Hongxin is a little puzzled, today’s battle is just an attempt. Is the enemy looking for his own flaws? This makes him a little nervous, but the enemy’s retreat is of course a good thing. After a day, anyway, it was just soldiers coming to stop him, and the water came to spit and flood it.

A group of Donghu soldiers retreated. When they withdrew nearly two hundred steps, the gathered Donghu soldiers suddenly dispersed. The crossbow covered by the previous formation was revealed, and Song Hongxin saw the black crossbow. The direction that the raised arrow aimed at, suddenly lost his color, "Xiao Haizi, come down!"

There was a continuous buzzing sound, hundreds of crossbow arrows as thick as a child leaped in the air. The target was the highest watchtower in the stockade, and only this place was not wrapped in ice and snow armor. P
