Chapter 283: Battle Damage
While!
At the same time, a deafening crash sounded. It was Wan Qiuqing who swung the blue and white sword and slashed a crossbow arrow, and she actually blocked the crossbow arrow in front of her. It was only a pity that the horse under her crotch could not withstand the fierce collision force, and fell to the ground with a bang in a series of bones bursting sounds, and died of blood.
At the same time, another crossbow arrow grazed Niu Dawa's leaning forehead, although the arrow did not touch Niu Dawa's skin, but the violent energy carried by the light arrow tore the skin of Niu Dawa's forehead, and in an instant the blood flowed like an infusion, staining her face red.
Niu Dawa was almost stupid, her heart was stuck in her throat and she forgot her heartbeat, and she was stunned for several breaths before she was busy covering her injured forehead with blue demon fire and repairing the wound. Luckily, the bolt was deflected upwards, otherwise his head would have exploded.
Although Wan Qiuqing blocked a crossbow arrow with her own strength, it seemed to be mighty and domineering, but her face was bloody, which showed that this arrow was not easy to block. And she was secretly glad in her heart, glad that the other party used an octagonal heavy crossbow, not an octagonal Zhuxian heavy crossbow, otherwise there would be no time to react at such a close distance.
Zhao Quan took off into the air to catch Zhang Xiaopu, who was hit by a crossbow arrow, but was knocked out upside down together, and it wasn't until two more people came up that they could be stopped.
Zhang Xiaopu forcibly suppressed the blood that surged to his throat, took out a bottle of Bone Renewal Muscle Pills from his arms and took two pills, and his bones were shattered. The long knife in his hand was still intact after a crossbow arrow, and he couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart: "Fortunately, it's a treasure knife, otherwise my life will be dead!"
Bang –
Three hundred paces away in front of him and on the left and right sides, a cloud of dust suddenly kicked up, and from under the dry loess surface, there were more than 2,000 soldiers with big teeth.
As soon as more than 2,000 people came out of the earth, they immediately drew their bows and arrows.
The dense sound of the bowstring trembling made Zhang Xiaopai's scalp numb. He had just seen the terrifying power of the rain of arrows not long ago, and he never expected to taste it for himself so soon.
At the same time, what was even more terrifying was the squeak of the twisting strings of the octagonal heavy crossbow.
"Kill it!" Zhang Xiaopaw turned back and charged, returned to his horse, and rushed east with a shout.
Wan Qiuqing jumped on the back of an empty horse, rushed to the front of the team in a few breaths, and shouted: "Give it to me in front, you pay attention to the arrows that are resisted!"
"Okay!" Zhao Quan responded, and then an order was given, and everyone immediately rode on horseback, ready to resist the arrows coming from behind.
"I'm coming!" Niu Dawa shouted angrily, and the wind on the flat ground swept up the sand and dust towards the enemies in front and to the left, obscuring their vision, and at the same time the earth domain spread out, and two earth walls rose from the ground.
Ding Ding Ding –
The rain of arrows came all over the world, but most of them were on the earthen wall of Niu Dawa. The two earthen walls were as hard as iron plates, and the arrows clanged gold and iron on them, because they were not ordinary earthen walls, but earthen walls combined with the golden domain, which had an invulnerable hardness.
"Awesome!" Zhou Jianlai praised when he saw this, not only praising the earth wall, but also praising Niu Dawa and comprehending the two elemental realms.
But the two earthen walls only supported a few breaths before they collapsed, after all, they were not ordinary arrows, but arrows with true yuan power from a strong bow, thousands of them came together, and Niu Dawa couldn't bear it at all.
However, although it only took a few breaths, it blocked the most ferocious wave of arrows, and some scattered arrows came over, all of which were blocked by everyone waving their blades.
"Bow!" Zhao Quan ordered.
Everyone immediately put their long knives into their sheaths, picked up the strong bow hanging from the horse's side, drew the armor-piercing arrow from the quiver, and stretched out the bow and arrow.
“!”
Five hundred armor-piercing arrows went out at the same time, and although they did not inflict great damage on the enemy, they suppressed the enemy's second wave of arrow rain attacks.
The five hundred soldiers moved skillfully on horseback, and their superb riding skills made Niu Dawa can't help but pick up his thumb and praise: "Amazing." Terrible. ”
At the same time, Wan Qiuqing blocked the arrow rain of the five or six hundred big tooth army in front of her with the strength of one person, but it was not at all difficult, and as soon as the arrow rain entered a distance of a hundred steps in front of her, the arrows sank to the ground.
Still two hundred paces away, she suddenly flew up and pounced forward, and in an instant she crossed a distance of two hundred steps and rushed into the enemy formation, the blue and white sword flew up and down, killing the big tooth army to scatter and flee.
Half-step power is by no means something that hundreds of people can stop.
"Crossbow arrows, be careful!" Zhang Xiaopaw's eager roar suddenly exploded in everyone's ears, as if he had the ability to predict, and his warning voice was two breaths ahead of time.
Woo –
The piercing sound of crossbow bolts tearing through the air suddenly rang out again.
Three huge crossbow arrows whined from above the horse's back, and there was no one on the horse's back, and they all slipped under the horse's belly and hid the moment they heard Zhang Xiaopa's warning sound.
This is the easiest and most effective way to dodge enemy arrows or crossbow arrows on the battlefield.
"Haha, cool!" Zhao Quan flipped back onto the horse's back from the horse's belly, and couldn't help laughing, this feeling of successfully dodging the octagonal heavy crossbow arrows on the edge of death was too exciting.
The enemy formation in front had already been killed by Wan Qiuqing alone.
In the blink of an eye, the team had rushed closer.
"Gun!" Zhao Quan ordered.
Everyone retracted their bows and ended their guns, the tips of their guns rushed forward, their arms turned inward, their palms up on the handles, and the tails of their guns clamped under their armpits.
Rumble!
Five hundred horsemen rushed into the scattered enemy formation like a torrent of broken embankments, and their spears pierced through the enemies who stood in the way ahead, directly picking them up. Someone even shot through several people, like a string of sugar gourds.
The iron cavalry stepped on, and only a few of the five or six hundred Big Tooth troops survived.
Boom Boom –
Blocking another wave of arrow rain attacks, five hundred horsemen dressed in the afterglow of the setting sun, rushed out of the ambush circle of the Big Tooth Army and left.
"Bastard, damn it!" Commander Big Tooth looked at the back of the cavalry in the distance, his face turned blue with anger, he never thought that the two rounds of three octagonal heavy crossbows would not leave a single corpse of the enemy. He secretly hated in his heart, if he had known that the other party had the power of half a step to come, he would have to put an octagonal Zhuxian heavy crossbow here to wait for him.
However, compared with Wan Qiuqing, a half-step powerhouse, it was Zhang Xiaopaw who made him pay more attention. If it weren't for Zhang Xiaopa's early warning and the order to stop advancing from 300 paces, he would have waited for the enemy to get another 100 paces closer before attacking. At a distance of two hundred steps, even if it is a half-step power, blood will be spattered on the spot.
Zhang Xiaopai's second warning made him even more shocked to close his mouth, because Zhang Xiaopaw's warning sound was actually out at the same time as his command to strike, and even faster than half a beat, so that when the crossbowman heard the order to pull the bracket, the other party shrank under the horse's belly and hid at the same moment, causing all the crossbow arrows to be empty.
He didn't understand how Zhang Xiaopaw did it, whether it was a coincidence, or a battle instinct, or a purpose? If it was the last, then this person would be a little terrifying.
However, looking at the back of Zhang Xiaopaw and the others fleeing eastward, the anger and depression on his face were quickly replaced by a sneer, and he said to himself: "It's better to die here than to fall into the hands of Fang Maniac." ”
At ten o'clock in the evening, after confirming that the Big Tooth Army did not catch up, Zhang Xiaopaw found a relatively hidden place and ordered to rest.
The old rule is to serve the war horse first, and then solve the problem of eating and drinking Lazar.
Niu Dawa called a few people, ran away with the raw horse's legs, found a corner that blocked the vision, used the fire domain to roast all the horse's legs, and came back to share a large piece of fragrant roast for everyone.
"Little pawn, why don't we break through to the west?" After eating the dry food, Wan Qiuqing finally asked the doubts that were holding in his stomach.
According to the battle plan made in advance, they should go down the official road to the northwest, and now they are fleeing in the northeast direction, which happens to be in a completely opposite direction.
According to the shape of the time, there were ambushes on the east and west sides, and the number of ambushes was not much different, so it was completely possible to choose to break through to the west.
Zhang Xiaopu frowned when he heard this, and said, "For some reason, the west side makes my heart palpitate, as if there is great danger waiting for us over there." I didn't have time to think about it, so I followed my instincts and chose to break east. ”
After speaking, Zhang Xiaopaw's eyes turned to the western night sky and muttered, "I wonder if the large army has also been ambushed?"
Wan Qiuqing nodded, finally solved the doubts in his heart, and couldn't help but follow Zhang Xiaopaw's gaze to the west, and said: "I feel as if they are lying in ambush there early in the morning, waiting for us to throw themselves into the net, they seem to have expected that we will come and will take this official road?"
"They couldn't have organized an ambush after learning that we had broken through the blockade, because with our march, they didn't have time to react. In other words, they expected that we would come to the rescue of the Left Army, so they set up ambushes on various roads in advance. Zhang Xiaopu analyzed, then looked at Zhao Quan and asked, "Two thousand strong bows, three octagonal heavy crossbows, how many soldiers and horses can be ambushed?"
Zhao Quan stretched out a finger and opened his mouth to spit out two words: "Ten thousand!"
"Ah?!" Zhang Xiaopaw showed a look of surprise, thinking that Zhao Quan had said something wrong, or that he had heard it wrong.
Zhao Quan smiled and said, "The enemy is so hidden, if I lead the team, I'm afraid I will fall into the enemy's arms." Think about it, if you go two hundred steps further, what will it look like?"
"At a distance of a hundred paces, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop the attack of the Octagonal Heavy Crossbow. Wan Qiuqing said.
"I don't have time to defend myself with a sword. Zhang Xiaopaw said.
Zhao Quan spread his hands and said: "Therefore, if you plunge into the enemy's ambush circle, our three members will be killed in an instant, followed by more than 2,000 strong bows and arrows, and we will have to lose at least more than 1,000 people in one round." The team that has lost its command is like a headless fly, and it will certainly not be able to organize an effective breakthrough in a short time, and at this time, the second, third, and fourth waves of arrows of the enemy will follow, and then surround and charge. Command a little better, and it will be easy to annihilate 10,000 people. ”
Zhao Quan said that it was very picturesque, and while Zhang Xiaopaw and the others listened, a corresponding picture appeared in their minds, and there was a sense of déjà vu of catching a turtle in an urn.
"Ten thousand cavalry rushed all the way over, how could they stop it?" Niu Dawa shook her head and disagreed.
"If I'm not mistaken, there will be a trap two hundred paces ahead, and the faster you will die. Zhao Quan sneered.
Zhang Xiaopaw nodded and said, "I stopped the team from moving forward when I noticed that there was something abnormal on the ground two hundred steps ahead. ”
That is to say, they at least set up an ambush against seven or eight thousand men and horses. Wan Qiuqing said in a deep voice, his eyes couldn't help but look to the west, and he couldn't help worrying about the large army led by Li Haotian.
There is no one in his team who can be like Zhang Xiaopaw who can be in a subtle state of mind, and can detect the enemy's well-camouflaged ambush circle from a distance, so as to give a warning in advance, nor is there a half-step power like her who can resist crossbow arrows, if he encounters an ambush, if he rushes into the enemy's ambush circle as Zhao Quan said, the consequences will be unimaginable.
In the northwest of Feiyu Prefecture, a group of men and horses disappeared into a forest under the cover of night.
Li Haotian's silver armor was stained with blood, and the whole person was like a bloody person, holding a spear and falling into the woods from the sky, and said in a low voice: "The enemy did not catch up. Adjutant, count the casualties, how many more people and how many horses?"
After half a cup of tea, the adjutant turned back and said in a low voice, "There are one thousand and twenty-two more horses, and nine hundred and four horses." We suffered heavy casualties in this battle. ”
Li Haotian nodded, the casualties were similar to the estimate in his heart, he looked at the eastern night sky worriedly, and said, "I don't know what the situation is on Madame's side?" I hope that kid can handle it." ”
The adjutant was also worried when he heard this: "With the strength of the enemy's ambush, five hundred horsemen are afraid-"
I'm afraid he didn't say anything, but Li Haotian knew what he wanted to say.
