Chapter 754 The Divine Arrow Kills the Horse and Hundreds of Horses Rush to the Battlefield
With this signal, Xu Fei jumped up and jumped off the wall, and landed squarely on the back of the god horse who had been waiting for a long time, only to see a white light flying like the east gate of the military camp galloping away.
The hundred assault cavalry had been waiting for a long time, and the nervousness made the body tremble slightly. This is not the fear of war, but the emotion of the impending sacrifice of life and death.
These hundred people knew very well what the consequences of attacking the enemy's thousands of soldiers and horses with a hundred people, but the impassioned words of the young man made these people understand.
These people are the hope of life for thousands of people in the barracks, and if no one forgets to die, then the only way waiting for everyone is the destination of death.
And the reason why these old gentlemen, old and weak soldiers can be left behind to garrison is precisely because they have been in the army for many years, and many of them in the military camp are fathers and brothers. When I was dispatching troops and horses, I was also grateful for the life of these people, and now I am going to the border at a great age, which is really miserable.
Therefore, many people in the barracks are related to each other by blood, but now this seemingly cumbersome concern has become a catalyst for high morale. In order to protect their relatives, these 100 relatively young and elite soldiers have long made plans to treat death as home.
These people are equipped with the most sophisticated armor and blades selected from these thousand officers and soldiers, and the iron armor on each person's body and the shield and saber in his hand are all neatly aligned, looking like a sharp blade that is in a hurry to get out of the sheath.
The east gate of Xu Fei's divine horse galloped from the north gate of the barracks for only a moment, like a white light galloping out of the road between the hundreds of people, and the suspension bridge at the west gate had already been lowered, and Xu Fei rushed to the outside of the barracks first.
There was no Xiliang army fortification outside the West Gate, but a few horses were arranged to observe the movements of the official army at any time, and these people were specially arranged here by Chu Liancheng. As long as there is an attempt to escape by officers and soldiers in the barracks, the tactics of war will be changed immediately.
The four probe positions, two on each side of the north and south sides of the west side of the city, stood far beyond the range of their bows and arrows, ready to report back the information they had observed.
After Xu Fei rushed out of the West Gate first, the Ruyi in his hand had already transformed into a sky-shaking bow and shot a sun arrow.
Aiming at the two scouts in the south, he opened his bow and set up arrows, and there were actually two sun-shooting arrows on the bowstring, only to hear the bowstring like a thunderbolt, and these two sun-shooting arrows flew directly to the two scouts.
These scouts who have been listening to news all year round know the best about the range of ordinary strongbows, and they all have a natural sensitivity to distance.
Now the two scouts are very particular about their position, they stand in a south-to-east position. Even the firing position from the nearest battlement was close to two arrows away.
This position is completely safe, and you can report back to the camp to the south as quickly as possible. And Xu Fei rushed out of the camp gate in the east, and the distance between the two people was two arrows away because of the oblique relationship.
This distance is not to mention that it is outside the range of ordinary bows and arrows, even if there is a strong bow with an astonishing number of stones, coupled with the sneak attack of Lida's infinite marksman, the arrow needs to be thrown over, and the time for this arrow to fly is enough for the scout to dodge.
However, Xu Fei's two arrows were issued, and they were said to be as open as a full moon and as meteors as arrows. Although the two arrows are projectiles, they are caused by the transformation of the Ruyi Divine Soldier, and the structure of the arrows has a unique shape.
Legend has it that this kind of sun-shooting arrow is the arrow used by the descendants to shoot the sun, and if it is the speed of an ordinary arrow, even if it can fly to this height, then the sun will not know where to go.
The whole arrow is a streamlined structure with a swirling pattern, and when it is fired, it will rotate rapidly to increase the stability of the flight and greatly extend the distance.
The air resistance encountered by the tip of the arrow is dispersed from the swirling pattern, forming a rotating air flow around it. Through the clever design of the spiral pattern, these air currents can be concentrated on the tail of the arrow and become thrust to speed up the flight.
Because of this ingenious design, although it is a high projectile, the speed of the arrow flight is like a meteor lightning, and the naked eye can only see a flash of white light like a rainbow, and it is completely impossible to see what the object is.
The two scouts saw the east gate of the barracks open, the drawbridge lowered, and a white horse rushed out.
Before he understood what was going on, he saw that the sky seemed to be crossed by two lightning bolts, and he only felt a sharp pain in his black neck in front of him, and he had already been shot through the neck by a sun-shooting arrow and fell off the horse.
Both of them carry horns for reporting information, and the rhythm of blowing the horns is different to convey various meanings, which are important objects used to call the police in the event of an emergency.
But now they were shot through the neck, although they all took the horn in their hands and tried to blow it before they died. But there were blood bubbles in his mouth, and only hissing sounds came out of his mouth, and he was killed after a moment of pricking.
As soon as Xu Fei left the camp gate to the east, he shot two enemies so far away that they could barely see clearly, and the hundred officers and soldiers who followed him saw this amazing skill, and their fighting spirit and courage were all inspired.
A young hero with this ability to lead the team, even if today is the day of the Horse Leather Shroud, will definitely be able to complete the task of killing the enemy's archers, and win a glimmer of life for those elderly fathers and brothers in the barracks.
These officers and soldiers have all been lectured by Wu Wei, so none of them shouted to kill, although their hearts were agitated, they all controlled their emotions.
One by one, the iron cards in their hands were tightly guarded by the side of their bodies, and the two horses formed a long snake formation in a row, and the long knives were not pulled out in the scabbards.
The two sun-shooting arrows automatically returned to Xu Fei's hands, and the two scouts in the north had already turned their horses' heads and galloped towards the formation, and the horn was also in their hands and was about to blow.
But suddenly I felt a pain in the back of my head, like someone had split his head from behind with an axe, and the horn had been put in his mouth, but he didn't know what had pushed it out.
When he looked at it, he found that a long shaft of an arrow spit out of his mouth, and the blood that spurted out of his body was exactly what flowed from his body. The strange sight left the two scouts' minds blank, and they both lost consciousness and fell off their horses.
It turned out that these two scouts had already been shot through the back of the head by Xu Fei from a distance, although the distance was very far, but the arrows shot out could still take into account preventing these two enemies from blowing their horns, which showed how amazing their archery skills were.
Xu Fei opened his bow left and right out of the camp gate, and in the blink of an eye, the scouts on both sides were killed, and this divine horse rushed straight to the south of the barracks, and the 100 assault light cavalry behind followed closely behind.
However, Xu Fei's speed was too fast, although he had already suppressed his pace and restrained his urge to gallop. However, the horses of the 100 people behind were not very good war horses, and the difference in speed was very obvious, and the two sides were getting farther and farther away, and they were about to break out of formation.
If it goes on like this, it will become Xu Fei's single cavalry charging into battle, and there is no one to command the 100 cavalry behind, so if it goes on like this, it will definitely not achieve the purpose of the surprise attack.
But if Xu Fei slowed down and waited for the horse team behind to follow, it would be enough for the Xiliang soldiers who had withdrawn from the city defense to return to the flanks of the archers.
At that time, the archers formation was defended by an infantry phalanx, and the surprise attack would become a storm. And a mere hundred people are like a flat boat in the sea among the thousands of enemy troops facing the enemy, and they are insignificant at all.
Xu Fei also saw this and couldn't help but be anxious, he didn't expect the official army's horses to be so unusable, this was still selected from the three hundred war horses, but the weakness was immediately exposed in the actual battle.
was anxious, but he heard a long hissing of the divine horse like a dragon roaring and a tiger's roar, the mane on the divine horse exploded, and the amazing aura burst out to the surroundings.
The hundred war horses behind him were all inspired by this momentum, and their manes exploded and their bodies became majestic, as if the potential in their lives was gushing out at this moment.
These 100-man cavalry galloped straight to the enemy formation at the north gate!
