Chapter 43: The Peerless Beast
Rocks not far ahead, rocks kept falling, and the deafening sound of horses' hooves echoed in the canyon.
Meng Fu's face was a little unpleasant, he had lost more than 2,000 men on the march, and the remaining 7,000 people were now encountering 20,000 reinforcements from Vic's side who had just arrived.
To be honest, the Dry Bone Legion he faced before was much stronger than the one Brand's faced, after all, it was close to the final battle area of the Black Tide back then, and there were no less than a hundred king-level bones underground, with strong combat power, invulnerable, and even the most ordinary dry bones were surprisingly hard in strength, unlike the other side, which could easily crush the skull with one kick.
"Ya!"
Meng Fu shouted, and the long ge in his hand pointed in the direction of the Vic army formation.
More than 7,000 Qin-armored soldiers took off the Qin crossbow behind them, and diagonally into the air, countless steel-cast crossbow arrows flew out of the crossbow box.
The flying crossbow bolts drew a half-arc in mid-air, passed over the dry bones in the middle, and struck accurately at the Vic phalanx.
'Bang!bang!'
The rain of crossbow arrows fell, constantly hitting the shields of the shield guards in the front row, causing a certain impact on the Vic cavalry, who were not too prepared.
A volley shot the shield that was at the forefront against the shield soldiers into hedgehog shells, and although the defense was tight, more than 400 people still fell under the sharp arrows of this round of crossbow arrows.
"Raise your shield!"
Sam hurried over, and another column of shieldmen rushed to the front, the most elite of the shieldmen.
An earthy yellow curtain of light began to spread from their shields to both sides, protecting the entire phalanx of Vic soldiers behind them.
"Bird, I want you to hang their heads on the banyan tree in front of Boone to warn those rebels with bad intentions!"
There was a hint of murder in Sam's eyes, but for the enemy, he was not as gentle and tolerant as before.
"Yes, Your Royal Highness the Second Prince. ”
Bird saluted, turned and gave orders to the Vic soldiers.
"The shield men get out of the way, the cavalry captain leads the charge, and the mages and archers keep the fire suppressed. ”
With Bird's order, the entire Vic phalanx began to change violently, and one after another phalanx of knights, holding spears and chanting 'For Vic!', rushed towards the Mongol army.
The collision between the cavalry of the two sides, just a moment, the Vic cavalry fell into the disadvantage, the cavalry of the Mengfu army was divided into hundreds of teams, each team was divided into two groups, one group charged the front, low and long, the two groups were 3 meters apart, holding their weapons high, and the sharp blades were also emitting a little cold light against the background of the moonlight.
A group of sharp Changge cut each of the horses' hooves into two halves, and the war horse was in pain, so he fell to the ground with the knight on his body, and the rear momentum did not stop, and in just a breath, he was trampled into meat by his own people or the war horses of the Mengfu army.
The second group reached forward and stabbed the heads of every Vic soldier who was still advancing.
Circles of light swirled in the sky, thunder fell, and the entire canyon fell into a sea of thunder.
This is the military mage's group locking spell, and all the black-armored cavalry are shrouded in thunder and lightning snakes.
The neighing of the war horses and the glow of the Qin armor on the body of the Meng Fu army actually introduced the thunder into the ground, except for a small number of soldiers with slight burns on their skin, there were no more casualties.
"Magical Guardian Armor!"
Bird was shocked, turned his head to look at Sam, and found that his face was also not good-looking, and bit it and instructed Brand on the side, "You lead the pikemen to me, and you must make this canyon their graveyard." ”
Brand took the order and left.
"Archer!" Bird shouted.
The bowstring was drawn into a full moon, and Dao Dao Changhong flew out from the archers' phalanx, and the violent and sharp sound of breaking the air made people's ears appear to have a brief tinnitus.
Seeing this, Meng Fu snorted coldly, and several burly soldiers appeared behind him carrying a scarecrow and appeared in front of the battle.
The scarecrow has a unique shape, a tall person, a hole like a black hole in his chest, red armor, and red helmets, like a Han soldier who is ready to fight with a knife. q
Since the scarecrow moved out, the bows and arrows in the sky seemed to be drawn by magnets, and the arrows turned around one after another, diverting and flying towards the red-armored scarecrow.
'Boom~Boom~Boom~......'
Tens of thousands of arrows from Vic's camp shot towards the black hole in the scarecrow's chest, and the black hole was deep, like a huge mouth of an abyss that could not be filled, and in just a few breaths, all the arrows were swallowed.
'Borrow the arrows!'
Zhuge Kongming's magic weapon made by borrowing arrows from grass boats can absorb bows and arrows shot by the enemy and save them, the only flaw is that he can only attract arrows, and cannot absorb magic.
"Don't stop! I'll see how many arrows he can take away from me!"
Bird was a little annoyed, which was extremely inconsistent with his usual calmness, and the great reason was that the second prince, who was the most likely to ascend the throne in the future, was next to him, which made him feel that he had lost face.
The collision between the cavalry became more and more violent, and although Vic's numbers were superior, the overall combat strength was weaker than that of the Mengfu army, and the damage ratio reached ten to one.
"Lord Marquis, we can't fight anymore, they are not afraid of death at all, you see that person, his stomach has been cut, and he still desperately killed our two soldiers. ”
The knight rode back to Bird, and in his eyes the unknown army in front of him was a devil from hell.
"Retreat!"
Bird hesitated, and Sam spoke.
The knight was overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered the messenger beside him to blow the horn.
'Woo~' The long and low horn sound came from this small horn.
The two sides on the battlefield tacitly agreed with each other to withdraw their hands.
"General, let them go?"
A strong man turned his horse in front of Meng Fu.
This strong man is not wearing armor, holding a silver-white moon giant bow, his clothes are stained with blood, his face is angular and angular, although he is middle-aged, he does not have a trace of beard, but he is Pan Feng, the general of the heavenly court!
Jiuxiao expelled him, and he also took a fancy to a hidden attribute 'might' similar to Pan Feng and Xing Daorong, if he appeared, he could increase his own attributes by 30%, but at the same time, he would reduce his own attributes by 99%.
Yes, he is a tool man, but it is enough to fight and kill pawns, but in order to ensure his safety, Jiuxiao still removed his ring-headed broadsword and replaced it with an artifact 'Falling Moon Bow'.
Meng Fu didn't speak, waved his hand to gather his troops, and stared solemnly in the direction of Vic's phalanx.
'Roar~'
A dragon's roar resounded through the void, and the entire canyon, along with the distant peaks, began to tremble violently.
The heavy coercion made everyone present a little breathless, and circle after circle of ice-blue light centered on the Vic soldier phalanx, frantically spreading around.
A peerless beast that seems to be waking up.
