Chapter 277: Hidden Arrows Sting Capture
Liu Yu climbed on the arrow tower in the wall, more than 30 arrow towers, lined up, all the soldiers were hidden behind the tower wall, holding three infantry crossbows in their hands, while covering their noses from time to time, or simply covering their faces with the scarf under their necks to resist the stench of these Hun soldiers, while their hearts were beating faster, their eyes were blazing, and they were staring at the direction of Liu Yu's arrow tower.
Liu Yu's nose twitched slightly, and the concentration of this smell could be used to estimate the distance of the enemy's advance, two hundred steps, one hundred and fifty steps, one hundred steps, the roar of the Hun soldiers mixed with the smell of shame, getting closer and closer, had already passed the killing range of Liu Yu's bow and crossbow, and the Hun soldiers standing in the first row, those potholes, everywhere were exposed to the sun, and the faces of the Huns who were peeled off by the sun everywhere also became clearly visible.
Tan Zhizhi counted in a low voice: "Seventy steps, sixty steps, fifty steps." When he said this, he looked up at Liu Yu, and his voice trembled a little: "Brother Jinu, fifty steps." ”
Liu Yu didn't even look at him, and said in a low voice: "How many times have I said it, only the general is called in the army, and you are not allowed to call Brother Jinu, bottle, thirty steps and then fight!" ”
As they spoke, the Huns shouted, and the trot suddenly turned into a full-speed sprint, a distance of about twenty paces, in an instant, but no one realized that they had crossed a pitchfork on the ground that seemed to be unintentionally upside down.
Liu Yu suddenly opened his eyes, the first to jump up from the arrow tower, the three companies of infantry crossbows in his hands buckled three times, and suddenly the three crossbow arrows flew out like meteors, at the same time, a red flag rose from the arrow tower, flying in the wind, like a burning flame.
More than 30 soldiers on the arrow tower all jumped up, more than 200 people in the hands of the crossbows, kept firing, densely poured in the ranks of these Hun soldiers, hundreds of crossbow arrows like a black storm, swept through the crowd, cut down these Hun soldiers like grain.
The standard infantry crossbow of the Jin army, enough to have the strength of three stones, at a distance of thirty steps, to fight this kind of infantry without armor or light armor, a arrow can penetrate more than two people, the Huns who are densely impacted, are cleaned by these crossbow arrows, screams again and again, blood and light keep emerging, one or two hundred people in front of them fell down instantly, and some people have been pierced through the chest and abdomen, even the intestines are flowing, and the body is still running by inertia, until after rushing out of five or six steps, it fell to the ground, bleeding and dying.
After Liu Yu quickly finished the three companies of infantry crossbows, he turned around and picked up a crossbow that had been on the arrow again from behind him, and fired at the scattered enemy group, and the Hun soldiers who had just got up after lying on the ground behind him let out a burst of screams again, and fell in groups, many people turned around and ran back, but they were still injured by the crossbows of these soldiers, and the back of the heart was nailed with crossbow arrows, directly piercing the body, and the blood-stained sheepskin fragments flew in the air, mixed with various pieces of flesh and small pieces of internal organs of the human body, and sprinkled all over the battlefield.
Du Yan's face was gloomy, and the voice of Saibada beside him was trembling: "Great Chief, this, this is at least one or two thousand strong crossbowmen, otherwise, how can there be such a powerful continuous shot?" We're afraid we're going to be ambushed, so let's retreat quickly, otherwise, or we're afraid that we won't be able to go back! ”
Du Yan gritted his teeth and roared: "I'm afraid of a bird, they used up all the bows and crossbows this time, and wanted to scare us back, Lao Tzu was not fooled, blew the trumpet for me, and the cavalry rushed up, pulled these broken fences with a lasso, rushed in, and let go of the kill!" ”
With the order of Du Yan was issued, the Hun soldiers who were originally scattered on both sides began to make a terrible whistle, and they stepped forward, they shot waves of arrows on the horse, attacking those arrow towers, and the sharp arrows immediately shot the planks on the arrow tower like a hedgehog, and the archers who had an average of five crossbow arrows per person could only lie on top of the arrow tower, and occasionally some people stood up and shot at the Hun cavalry outside the arrow tower, but they always shot down these arrows, screamed and fell down the arrow tower, and died with a whimper.
Liu Yu's expression was calm, at this moment he was lying on top of the arrow tower, two layers of wooden planks and two layers of cooked cowhide inside and outside, so that the arrow tower he was in was very safe, the whizzing arrows kept flying over his head, but he was indifferent, still motionless from the small observation port, looking at the situation outside.
The pikemen of the Hun army who attacked in the first wave just now, three or four hundred people died in five rounds of crossbow strikes, and the rest of the people were lying on the ground and pretending to be dead and did not dare to move.
The corners of Liu Yu's mouth hooked up a sneer, nodded to Tan Pingzhi on the side, Tan Pingzhi comprehended, and suddenly raised a green flag, only to see a sudden shaking in the soil layer at the fence, and in the land that originally looked ordinary, more than 200 soldiers with spears suddenly drilled out, Xiang Jing led the team, and the Huns who pulled the fence were a thorn.
They worked well together, working in groups of three, stabbing one person straight at a time, and their mouths kept screaming rhythmically: "One, four, five, two, five, four, one, eight, eight." ”
These Hun soldiers didn't expect that there was an enemy ambush behind the fence, and they stabbed down more than 100 people in an instant, and the remaining 200 or so people fled backwards without their lives, so how could they care about pulling the fence again?
More than 200 lightly armed auxiliaries, under the leadership of Wei Yongzhi, took bows and arrows, rushed out of the gap of the pikemen, and rushed out of the gap of the pikemen, and against the Huns who fled in the wilderness, it was a burst of bows and arrows, and a burst of screams sounded, and the Huns who escaped thirty or forty steps away, there were fifty or sixty people who were suddenly shot into arrow targets in the back, screaming and falling back, and some people were hit by six or seven arrows, and fell to the ground, crying and crawling back, but none of their companions were willing to come back to save him.
Du Yan sneered: "Sure enough, there is an ambush, but it seems that they have this ability, the order, the cavalry rushed to me, the foot archers stepped forward to shoot and continued to suppress the arrow tower, and the cavalry used the lasso to pull off the fence for me, and as soon as the fence fell, they rushed in to kill." Also, send 300 falconders to give Lao Tzu some rockets, and shoot them all at the arrow tower where the flag is erected. Grandma's, that enemy general must be on it, Lao Tzu originally wanted to be captured alive, but now he can't control so much, shoot! ”
Bursts of arrow rain flew towards the arrow tower where Liu Yu was, this time it was all rockets, and the rockets shot by the best shooters of these Hun soldiers flew out of a long arc and went straight to the arrow tower.
