Seeing that the cavalry was galloping and had entered the range of the crossbowmen, Hu Ying also waved his hand and shouted, "Aim!" Shoot the arrows! ”

Thousands of arrows struck like locusts.

Alihai shouted angrily in the array, and the phalanx of all the cavalry suddenly changed the trajectory of galloping, and began to walk and shuttle in all directions, very smart, and at the same time, the first two cavalry of each phalanx sank the iron net down, and the last two cavalry lifted it up, and the iron wire net suddenly became an inclined plane, blocking the arrows shot from the city tower.

There is a mystery hidden in the iron net, which is divided into two layers on top of each other when it is compiled. Ordinary arrows will be stopped by the first layer of iron cables, and occasionally those that pass through the cracks in the iron cables will also be stopped by the second layer.

The cavalry is good at charging combat, but the distance that does not rush into the enemy line is the weakest link of the cavalry, and no matter how many bows and crossbows and artillery the enemy fires from a distance, they can only suffer hard.

Alihai and Ulethai grew up living in the southernmost part of the Clan's territory, bordering the Blade Clan's territory and having the most contact with the Blade Clan's ironsmiths. The wire mesh is a powerful tool created by Alihai's painstaking meditation. This chain net can be said to effectively cover up the shortcomings of the cavalry, and greatly improve the survivability of the cavalry.

A small cavalry phalanx of four men must be formed with four horses moving at the same pace, and the slightest disagreement between them on the way will make it impossible to hold up the chain net. Originally, if this was replaced by other blood clansmen, it would inevitably cause the phalanx to fall apart, but compared with those blood clansmen in Chigu Mountain, the people of Alihai were inferior in terms of force, but they were strictly disciplined, ordered neatly, and were the best at group combat. Four cavalry charges, all without a problem!

With this iron wire net and the cavalry formation that acted consistently, although Ali Hai's martial arts were mediocre, he was also among the Eight Horsemen of Blood and Smoke, and was deeply trusted by Qi Lie.

Hu Ying couldn't help frowning when he saw that the blood clan cavalry used the iron rope net and shot down thousands of arrows in the city, with little effect. She immediately ordered the longbowmen to retreat and replace them with strong crossbowmen in pairs, the crossbow head of this crossbow shot out with the power of two people, and the power was huge, but it took a lot of time to load the crossbow arrows.

Sure enough, although the crossbow arrows are powerful, they shoot extremely slowly, and the arrows are large and easy to dodge.

Hu Ying's previous garrison in Bihai Langzhou is a river and water town, and he has never seen a cavalry with a wire net, but now he sees a fierce situation, but he can't think of a way to deal with it, and he can't help frowning.

She watched the cavalry get closer and closer to the city gate, and she had a plan, and shouted: "Crossbowmen stand down, longbowmen come up!" Replace all White Feather Arrows with Black Feather Arrows! Aim only at the wire net! ”

Since the establishment of the Golden Feather Battalion, the biggest purpose has been to defend Taiye City, not to attack other countries. Considering that when defending the city, the archers can play a great role in taking advantage of the geographical advantage, so there is basically no cavalry in the entire Golden Feather Battalion, but half of the soldiers are all kinds of archers, and the "feather character" of the Golden Feather Battalion is also taken from the meaning of arrow feathers.

These archers used different bows and used a variety of arrows.

The white feather arrows used by Hu Ying's initial soldiers are light and shoot far, but the head is easy to deviate, and it can be overwhelming the enemy when ten thousand arrows are fired. On the other hand, the Black Feather Arrow is heavy and can be shot closely, but without losing its accuracy, making it suitable for medium and short-range shooting.

At first, the soldiers were helpless because the arrows were blocked by the wire net, and they were trying their best to aim at the horse's legs, and when they heard Hu Ying's shout to shoot at the wire net, they were puzzled, but under the military order, they had to obey it. Speaking of which, the square one of the wire nets is much easier to shoot than a horse's hooves. So after a while, a bunch of black feather arrows had been inserted into the iron wire nets of various small phalanxes, and from a distance, they looked like wriggling little hedgehogs.

The archers muttered to themselves, what's the use of this? The materials for black feather arrows are much more expensive than white feather arrows, isn't this sending arrows to the enemy for nothing?

Bihai people are Bihai people, and they are still secretly calculating the cost of arrows.

On this side, Hu Ying still did not give up, and shouted: "Shoot! Shoot me hard! All shot at the wire net! ”

The black feather arrows continued to fall overwhelmingly, stacking them on the wire net, and even stacked on the previous white feather arrows.

Gradually, the archers noticed that the cavalry formation, which had been running with agility, was slowly slowing down, the pace was crooked, and the iron wire nets held high were not so smooth, and some of the nets were crumpled.

The soldiers of the Golden Feather Battalion suddenly understood, I see!

Although each arrow is very light, it is embarrassing to add up, especially when it is replaced with a black feather arrow, the weight of the insertion is immediately compared with the white feather arrow, and the cavalry formation can not bear it immediately.

Sure enough, a few crushed soldiers gradually appeared in those small phalanxes and fell from their horses, and once a corner of the wire net was missing, a flaw suddenly appeared, and the black feather arrow took advantage of the weakness to hit the horse's belly or the soldier's ribs.

The city tower was cheered, and all the soldiers were overjoyed, secretly admiring the veteran Hu Ying, who had seen a lot of various scenes on the battlefield, and such a strange cavalry formation could also find a way to crack it.

Qi Lie stood on his horse in the distance, without a trace of panic on his face.

Because he knew that Alihai's cavalry was more than that.

I only heard Ali Hai shouting again in the array: "Change!" ”

Suddenly, the situation on the battlefield has miraculously changed!

All the cavalry discarded the iron nets that had been filled with arrows in unison, and took out a new set of nets from the marching pouches that hung behind the horses' hips and put them over their heads again. What's even more surprising is that some of the small phalanxes that have been shot off their horses and become mutilated have approached each other and regrouped into a new four-man cavalry formation, still in step with each other, and they are extremely neat!

During the period, the net was abandoned, the net was taken, the person was found, and the formation was all in one go, although there was no collision with each other, which made everyone on the city tower dumbfounded.

This is the Ali Sea of Blood and Smoke!

Qi Lie laughed out loud behind the battle, wanting to crush the cavalry of my blood clan with arrows? That's a joke. He knew that each of the cavalrymen of Alihai had an iron net in their marching bag, and even if they abandoned the net and set up a new one, each phalanx could withstand four Hu Ying's bow and arrow attacks, which was enough to resist for a while.

Yes, I, Qi Lie, didn't want to attack the city, I just wanted to make a show, but since it was a show, I had to make a show! Let you only look at the front of you, and not care about the swamp in the east of the city!

Hu Ying was not annoyed when he saw that the cavalry formation had changed to a new net, but secretly praised it.

is resourceful, and it is said that the Imurans are brave and unresourceful, which shows that they cannot be hearsay. The cavalry in front of him is so well-trained, even if he is replaced by himself as the commander, he may not be able to train the soldiers to this extent.

She pressed the Qingfeng Sword with her left hand, waved her right hand, and shouted, "Ready, falling stones!" ”

Cavalry is cavalry after all, not a siege of troops, even under the city walls, you have to dismount and attack the city, there is no need to panic at all. Lin Qianmo had already ordered Lin Qianmo to prepare a boulder on the city wall, just waiting for the siege of the city, when the time comes, whether you have iron net or copper armor, as long as you take it, it will become meat and mud.

Ali Hai, who was in the cavalry formation here, saw that he was almost close to the city gate, and suddenly shouted again: "Qu! ”

It was just this order that the entire cavalry formation changed again. The originally mighty cavalry formation suddenly coalesced together and merged into a long snake that meandered towards the city gate.

Seeing this, Hu Ying didn't know what to mean, the falling rocks that had been lined up on the city were useless, because there was no one under the city walls, and only the little place at the city gate was approaching the enemy.

The serpent swam very fast, and when the serpent's head approached the city gate, it immediately turned back and retreated to the rear.

All the cavalry just dangled around the city gate and then retreated.

Hu Ying was confused for a while, and suddenly the soldiers on the side shouted: "Look! Look! What are they throwing at the gates! ”

Hu Ying looked down, and sure enough, every cavalry that passed through the city gate threw an object like a crockpot into the city, and as soon as the crockpot smashed to the ground, all that flowed out was thick black water, and I saw that the black water flowed more and more, converging into a stream, and slowly flowing to the edge of the city gate.

While everyone was in shock, the cavalry array quickly threw away the crockpots and walked away.

At this moment, a pungent smell suddenly rushed to the sky, like the fishy smell of gunpowder. Hu Ying suddenly came to his senses and secretly screamed that it was not good!

At this time, Qi Lie picked up the giant bow again and "set the sun", aiming at the city gate with another arrow. Only this time it was not a letter tied to the arrow, but a fire!

The arrow was impartial, and it hit the pile of black water, and suddenly the fire soared into the sky, and the smoke was filled!

Seeing this, Hu Ying shouted: "Quick! Watering! Watering from above! ”

The archers abandoned their bows and crossbows, turned around and went to fetch water, and after a while they poured water from above, but the tower was very high, and a bucket of water fell into the air and scattered, and the water fell on the fire as if it were a few drops of rain, which was really a drop in the bucket.

Hu Ying still did not give up, so the soldiers continued to splash water, it is strange to say, although the water splashed a lot, but it had no effect, the flame of the black water seemed to be not afraid of water at all, the more it burned, the more it burned, the smoke was accompanied by a disgusting stench, and the people on the city tower were scorched black, and tears flowed endlessly.

After a while, suddenly the soldiers guarding the gate under the city came to report that the city gate had been lit by the flames of black water, and the thick copper city gate was about to burn red!

Seeing this, Hu Ying couldn't care about the city, so he hurried to the gate of the city and saw that it was really the case. Black water kept flowing through the cracks in the gate, and the entire city gate was twisting with terrifying flames like Zhu Rong's possession, and the bottom of the city gate had already begun to turn red!

Hu Ying looked around, and said in a hurry: "Quick, pile all the snow and ice at the gate of the city, the more the better!" ”

When all the soldiers heard this, they also reacted, and hurriedly collected materials from the nearest place, and hurriedly piled the frozen water jar in the city to the city gate first, and the rest of the people used small carts to collect the snow and sent it out one by one.

Some soldiers were in a hurry, and they mixed some dead branches and leaves in the snow, and Hu Ying saw it with sharp eyes, so angry that he picked up the scabbard and swept the soldier's head fiercely and scolded: "I want to put out the fire, and you will add firewood to me?" Is it because my brain is frozen? ”
