"But, how is that possible?" General Zhaowu still didn't believe it, but he had already turned around to get his treasure sword, and at the same time muttered in a low voice in great surprise: "Ahead, there are forty bed crossbows of our army in front!" And nearly 1,000 elites of our army! With the defense of the fortress and the offensive of the bed crossbow, how could a thousand ** people break through the encirclement? Impossible, impossible. ”

If according to common sense, General Zhaowu's speculation is indeed not a problem, forty bed crossbows, at a distance of four hundred meters, is enough to cause the lethality without shield defense, a distance of three hundred meters can even break through the defense of the shield, if it is closer, it is normal for a crossbow arrow to cause three to five casualties.

At the previous meeting, General Zhaowu and several generals under his command had also confirmed that if there were no heavy engineering equipment, they believed that there were only two ways, one was to see the situation and retreat, and the other was to break through. And if you break hard, forty bed crossbows only need a few rounds of salvos to solve the battle, as long as the operation is fast, even if the cavalry charges, it is impossible to completely break through the defense, not to mention the defense assisted by two hundred archers.

With full of doubts, General Zhaowu picked up his big knife and walked quickly to the outside of the tent, and when he passed by his own soldiers, he did not forget to glare at the other party fiercely, as if the other party had just told a big lie to himself, and he wanted to swallow the other party in one bite.

Out of the camp tent, General Zhaowu jumped on the mount that had been prepared, snorted coldly in his mouth, and quickly urged the war horse to run towards the camp gate, wanting to understand the specific situation as soon as possible, after all, he still didn't believe that his fortress would be lost at all.

But when General Zhaowu quickly arrived at the camp gate, what he saw was a crowd of black oppression, not only the soldiers gathered in front of him in the camp gate, but also outside the camp gate, it was the nearly 1,000 elites he said, that is, the soldiers who were originally stationed in the fortress, were running towards their camp in embarrassment.

And behind those soldiers who fled in embarrassment, there was a black oppressive cavalry, although hundreds of people were not much, but on the road of the Meridian Valley with limited positions, it still seemed to be crowded, and the momentum was violent, especially the carved arrows that rose into the air from the cavalry camp from time to time, and the whistling sound was continuous, like a flock of frightened birds in the woods, frequently rising into the air.

What made General Zhaowu even more uneasy was that along the way, the stench in his mouth and nose became stronger and stronger, although he wanted to find some soldiers who fled for their lives and came back to ask about the specific situation, but the current situation was too late, after all, the enemy was current, and even close to the ruler.

"General!" When the captain of the pro-soldier saw that his master was about to arrive, he also fell a stone in his heart, and when he saw the group of black cavalry regiments, the captain of the pro-soldier was worried in his heart, although he had also participated in the battle, he had never commanded it personally, at this time, it was like seeing a life-saving straw, and he quickly ran to General Zhaowu's side, hugged his fists and said: "Brother who retreated ahead. . . ”

"Needless to say! Defend against the enemy first! General Zhaowu squinted, decisively stretched out his hand to interrupt the other party, glanced around, those two hundred archers who had just retreated, at this time had been divided to both sides, and their bodies were full of stench, although the captain of the personal army also arranged them to use bows and arrows to coordinate the defense task, but more than half of the people already did not know where to throw the horn bow, at this time they were carrying a horizontal knife, facing the wall in front of them, looking dazed and at a loss.

"What a bad luck!!" General Zhaowu didn't forget to curse while thinking, then frowned, and shouted at the captain who had just led the archers: "What are you still standing here? Wait for Lao Tzu to kill you?! Look at your people? Even if you lose your weapon, what are you going to do when you come back? Take your people and give Lao Tzu to the vicinity of the camp gate, if you can't guard the camp gate today, none of them will survive! Idiot! A bunch of idiots! There is still a face back! ”

Watching the general waving the big knife in his hand from time to time, the defeated captain was sweating profusely, and at this time he didn't care that his face was still stained with bits and pieces of filth, but when he heard that his own commander had temporarily let himself live, he immediately hugged his fist and took the order, and then raised his arm and wiped his face indiscriminately, turned around and waved the horizontal knife at his subordinates who had no horn bows behind the wall: "Are you all fucking fools?" What are you doing with a knife against the wall? Could it be that our enemy is a wall? Or do you want to rebel and tear down the wall together to meet the enemy?! Why don't you hurry up and get over here, and stick to the camp gate with Lao Tzu! The general said, if you can't guard the camp gate today, you won't be able to live! ”

Hearing this, those people who were carrying horizontal knives and endured the stench of their bodies from time to time hurriedly moved their steps in the direction of the camp gate, although everyone was extremely unwilling, but just now their captain also said, is it trying to rebel? That is a great sin of directly correcting the Fa before the battle, and no one wants to take the lead.

"Humph! A bunch of idiots! After venting the anger in his heart, General Zhaowu calmed down and cursed again, but he was shocked, and hurriedly raised his arm and ordered loudly to the archer in front of him: "Release the arrow, release the arrow!" Don't let them in!! ”

"General?!" The two lieutenants in charge of commanding the three hundred archers in the camp couldn't help but be stunned, turned around and looked at their own generals with blank expressions, and didn't understand why they fired arrows at their own companions, because they didn't hold the fortress, they were going to die under their own bows and arrows?

"What are you doing in a daze?! Shoot them all!! Hurry up and release the arrows!! Seeing that his military order was met with suspicion or even resistance, General Zhaowu couldn't help but be furious, repeated it again in a loud voice, and then scolded at the two dazed captains: "Fool! What do you know?! This is the enemy's trick! They want to use our own people to charge! You can't let them come, otherwise, no one will be able to escape!! ”

"Huh? Yes!! Yes, yes! The last general understands! Only then did the two lieutenants understand, and the archers who were hesitating naturally heard this explanation, but after all, there were companions outside the camp who they got along with day and night, and they still couldn't pull their horn bows, and their expressions were extremely complicated.

"What are you doing? Draw the bow and release the arrow!! This time, without waiting for General Zhaowu to get angry again, the two lieutenants saw that the soldiers under their command were still a little hesitant, and they couldn't help but feel anxious.

One of the lieutenants decisively pulled out his horizontal knife, then swung it forward, and shouted in a deep voice: "Give Lao Tzu arrows!" There are those who disobey! No mercy! ”

"If anyone does not obey the order, he will be punished as delaying the military aircraft! No mercy!! Seeing this, another lieutenant also hurriedly drew his horizontal sword, and kept pointing and drawing behind the archers, shouting and threatening.

Seeing this, the captain of General Zhaowu's personal soldiers also glanced at several personal soldiers, and everyone mustered up their strength together and repeated loudly: "If anyone does not obey the order, it will be punished as delaying the military aircraft!" No mercy!! ”
