44 Confrontation II
The heavy crossbow, in this world, is a siege weapon, not only because of its powerful power, but most importantly, because of its powerful throwing ability and terrifying penetrating power.
Used in siege cities, the crossbow is powerful enough to break through wall bricks, and it is extremely powerful.
But the most terrifying thing is the range, the general hard bow, the range is about 100 to 150 steps, this is still the distance of the projectile, and the effective killing distance is only 100 steps.
The heavy crossbow is different, its volume is several times that of the general hard bow, the bowstring is thicker, the crossbow arrow is higher than the MC/ttntyyyuy"", the bow needs two soldiers to carry out the winch at the same time, and the main and auxiliary bows are superimposed on each other to make force, so that they can be used.
Du commanded this kind of heavy crossbow, in the north to resist Hu, outstanding achievements, to the Hu cavalry caused extremely terrifying casualties.
Although the northbound anti-Hu Nai is mostly in the grassland and Gobi, and the heavy crossbow shoots with huge casualties, its combat effectiveness in mountain combat should not be underestimated, and the heavy crossbow is stable and adjustable.
They all command their heavy crossbow teams, and they are all good at this.
Although the valley is too narrow to spread out on a large scale, it is still more than enough to erect four or five.
At least three arrows can be fired at a time, which can be said to be arrows, and the arrows of the heavy crossbow can almost be called guns, except for the tail feathers that control flight, which indicate their identity, they are almost the same as a gun.
On both sides of the valley, it was pitch black, and the pouring rain continued to fall, and the torches were absolutely useless.
Moreover, fighting at night, using torches is undoubtedly a very stupid act, which would expose oneself to complete darkness.
The commander has fought a lifetime of battles, so naturally he will not be so stupid, and after the heavy crossbow erection is adjusted, there are guards who bring a cupola cannon.
He wanted to follow the previous bandit's method, and use the light of the moment of the explosion of the cupola cannon to lock on to the opponent and deal a heavy blow to the opponent.
Shout!
With a burst of firelight, the moment the beautiful fireworks burst out, the eyes of the commanders were as sharp as eagles, and they instantly pointed to a certain ridge.
After years of cooperation, the soldiers under his command have almost developed a habit, and they are extremely quick to adjust the angle of the heavy crossbow.
"Put!"
With a loud shout, the soldier in charge of firing the bow knocked down the bracket fiercely, and then six heavy crossbows, a total of eighteen crossbow arrows, drove straight to the ridge like thunder.
"Damn it, hidden! Don't show your head! ”
On the ridge, with the previous light, Luo Yang, as the commander, naturally saw the elite soldiers under the mountain, but he had no choice but that although he had a hundred warriors and a shooter who pierced through Yang in a hundred steps, the other party was far away from the shooting range, and the whip was beyond his reach.
In addition, all the commanders were very good at using soldiers, hiding the heavy crossbow in the shadow corner, for a while, Luo Yang didn't find the crisis, until the crossbow arrow broke through the wind, bringing a slight sound of breaking the wind, he didn't react.
Despite the best possible response, three brothers were still unable to avoid it and were shot by crossbow arrows, but fortunately avoided the critical moment, but they were still injured in the hands and feet.
The crossbow bolt was extremely powerful, and it instantly broke two arms and one leg of the three men, and the one who was shot in the thigh was actually led back directly, until the crossbow bolt pierced a big tree, and then stopped.
"Brother Luo, save me!"
The most seriously injured soldier begged for help with pain on his face, as if a knife had been stabbed into Luo Yang's heart.
"Brother Luo, the second round is here!"
Just as he was about to let people save the three brothers, the other brother shouted, Luo Yang saw that the brother who was tied to the tree was about to become a live target for a new round of salvo, so he didn't care about it anymore and rushed towards that brother at full speed.
Swish!
The knife fell, and the brother's right leg was broken by an arrow, Luo Yang pulled it down, and at the same time, the arrow came, piercing nearly ten inches into the tree.
"Bandage him to stop the bleeding, and I will signal the brother on the other side to retreat quickly." Luo Yang threw the man to a brother who was not injured and said, and at the same time felt a signal in his hand and lit it under the cover of the brother next to him.
Shout!
The blue light illuminated the sky, and the Qingfeng Village brothers on both sides of the ridge began to retreat one after another, and at the same time, the masters of the sect leader team were no more than ten zhang away from the ridge.
The commander was good at seizing the fighter, and the moment the opponent was suppressed by the heavy crossbow, the head team had already swarmed up.
Without obstruction, these cliffs are really no trouble for masters like them.
"Suppress a round, cover the retreat!"
Luo Yang shouted, and the thunder stone rolling wood in front of him was kicked down by him, and the same is true of the extremely brothers around him, the heavy crossbow has stopped, otherwise it will definitely hurt the people of the sect leader by mistake, and the commander naturally understands.
In a contact battle, both sides were damaged.
On Luo Yang's side, after all, there were still two brothers who were shot by Zhang Gong, and Luo Yang couldn't even take away the corpses.
When they climbed the ridge, they fired a direct volley, and the suppression of the number made the people in Luoyang have to turn to the defensive, but the two people who were targeted by Zhang Gong did not even have a chance to hide.
Zhang Bow's arm strength is amazing, he can shoot two stones and a half hard bow, and at such a close distance, even if they are wearing a cuirass, the two of them still become gourds and are killed by one blow.
The road down the mountain is a gentle slope, the distance itself is not more than 100 zhang, in, for the head team of these people in the rivers and lakes, it can be described as "like a fish in water", seeing that the distance continues to pull in, with three wounded, it is estimated that it is difficult to get rid of, Luo Yang gritted his teeth and ordered: "Everyone must not turn back, the second master is at the foot of the mountain, and now he is halfway there." ”
"Brother Ro, Captain ......"
Listening to Luo Yang's resolute words, more than a dozen people turned around and shouted in unison, but Luo Yang's figure had already swept into the bushes and disappeared into the vast dark night.
The rain is still falling, and it seems that tonight is destined to be miserable, and God is crying.
In the dark, facing the heavy rain, the sight is even worse, the shadows of the trees are heavy, people go to a cat in the dense grass somewhere, and in the environment where they can't see their fingers, it is not easy to find a person.
At this time, this is the situation of the head team.
They followed and followed, extremely fast, and they thought they would be able to catch them, but they didn't know that the cold arrow that came suddenly almost hit the bow, and the skin on their faces was broken.
The other three were hit by arrows, although they were not fatal, but these people did not dare to continue the chase easily, and if they could not find this guy who released the cold arrow, they would have to face danger all the time.
Zhang Gong and Lu Song hid in a bush, and Zhang Gong said softly: "Brother Lu, you lead someone to chase you, I will meet this guy who doesn't know the height of the sky." ”
"Are you sure?" Lu Song frowned slightly, it was not that he didn't believe in Zhang Gong, Zhang Gong didn't have a reputation for feather arrows, but he could see that the other party was also a good player in this, and he was very cautious.
Zhang Gong did not answer Lu Song's inquiry, but silently tightened the longbow in his hand, and the next moment it was a fish leap and rushed out of the bushes where he was hiding.
Shout!
The tight bowstring in Luo Yang's hand was taken off, and he actually used the method of listening to the body and distinguishing the position.
At the same time, the featherless arrows in Zhang Gong's hand also roared out, and the two arrows hit a face in the air, and each took the target directly.
Poof......
Zhang Gong fell to the ground, looked at the arrows that were still trembling in the big tree behind him, and sneered: "Dare to fight me with the arrow, I am too confident, my arrow is not so simple to dodge." ”
"No feathered arrows, worthy of the name!"
Lu Song had also sweated for Zhang Gong before, and when he saw this scene, he immediately gave him a thumbs up, and then waved his hand directly and led the team to pounce.
Behind a rock, an arrow from Luo Yang's right shoulder was firmly pierced between the shoulder blades, and the warm blood seeped down, making Luo Yang look miserable.
Clenched his fists slightly, the severe pain hit, almost didn't make him faint, he sat weakly, with the slightest glimmer of light, looked at the arrow with almost no tail feathers, and said with a wry smile: "No feather arrow, worthy of being the heir of the Zhang family, this arrow method is not much better than Lao Du, and I don't know if I Luo Yang can escape in his hands?" ”
Shout!
Just when Luo Yang was thinking about countermeasures, an arrow actually floated against his scalp, startling him into a cold sweat, and then he heard it, Zhang Gong said: "I respect you as a man, if you take the initiative to come out and agree to join the command of the commander, I can spare your life." ”
"It's really Pang Yu's loyal dog." Luo Yang's heart is full of disdain, Pang Yu is a legend to many people, but for him, as a soldier under the command of the commander, what Pang Yu does is despised by people like them.
"This guy must be provoking me!" Luo Yang was motionless, he knew that if he moved, he would definitely become a live target, Zhang Gong could have such a prestige in the rivers and lakes, the so-called "no vain man under the fame" is no matter how bad it is, it will not be easy to go anywhere.
The battle just now also made him clearly understand that Zhang Bow and Archery has reached the point of being superb, and there are only a handful of people in the entire Xia Dynasty who can surpass him in archery.
It's just that although Luo Yang wanted to brake quietly, the damn wind and rain did not fulfill his wishes, and the sudden intensification of the wind broke the big branches on his side and fell, making him have to move.
"Heaven wants you to die by my arrows." Seeing a black shadow passing by, no feather arrows came out, in such a dark situation, Zhang Gong still caught the target, although the two arrows took off one arrow, but the other arrow shot a porcelain solid.
This time, Luo Yang was injured in the thigh and fell into the dark.
WhewW......
Although the pain was in the bone marrow, Luo Yang didn't even dare to take a big breath, so he could only take a quick breath under the cover of the rain and the sound of the wind.
The sound of life-seeking footsteps approached little by little, and Luo Yang's heartbeat almost accelerated rapidly with the sound of approaching footsteps, almost jumping out of his chest.
"Are you going to die? Failed to shroud in horse leather, but is it going to fall here? At this moment, a trace of despair was born in Luo Yang's heart.
"No, I can't die, my wife and children are still waiting for me to go back and reunite."
Xu is nostalgic for the world, and at this moment, he thinks of his long-awaited wife, the babbling child. He reached for the sword hanging from his waist, ready to fight to the death.
Da!
When Zhang Gong was two steps away, Luo Yang's war knife was suddenly withdrawn......
