Pulling a bow and shooting arrows is such a thing, it's really a feeling, how to shoot, and you can't think about it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Li Heiniu's third arrow shot out, and sure enough, it hit the second substitute Xia Junjun commander head-on!

Seeing this, the Song army on the wall of Qingping Pass let out a tsunami-like cheer, and forcibly covered the rumbling drums of the Xia army.

Yang Shihu's mood was very excited, and he shouted in his heart God help me, the morale of the soldiers guarding the Song army was greatly boosted at the moment, Yang Shihu thought that after resisting the third attack of the Xia army, he must find this archer and reward him well.

The same shot to kill a person, both the body and the head sound like the ultimate goal is achieved, but the effect is completely different.

At a distance of 200 steps, it was able to shoot the commander's body, which brought surprise to Xia Jun, and shooting the commander's head brought Xia Jun an incomparably shock!

It is said that the nomads in the west of the northern part of the Central Plains are the best at mounted archery, but their good riding archery is still different from the orthodox fixed-point archery.

Northern tribes such as the Western Xia and Khitan were good at riding and archery, and most of the bows used were horse bows, which were relatively easy to control from horses, and were a kind of short bow.

The bow itself was lightweight, making it easy to carry, making it easier for cavalry to quickly fire arrows at the enemy.

While the advantages are obvious, the disadvantages are also significant. Most of these short bows are light bows ranging from eight buckets to one stone, and the effective killing distance is only fifty or sixty paces.

If fighting on flat terrain, the cavalry has many advantages with this short bow, but in siege warfare, such a short bow is of little use if it is aimed at the target on the city.

Of course, they also had longbows and hard bows, but because the manufacturing process was not as good as that of the bow craftsmen in the Central Plains, and because they were located in the northern grasslands and desert areas, they lacked high-quality materials to make bows, so the infantry longbows they used were not very different from the standard longbows of the Song army.

The soldiers of the Xia army could not imagine that there was a sharpshooter in the Song army who could shoot a hundred shots from a distance of 200 steps, let alone imagine that this sharpshooter could not only shoot people, but also shoot the head of the target.

When the herald's head was blown out by a powerful arrow, this visual impact was not only killing and injuring a herald officer to a large extent, but greatly deterring the Xia soldiers, and it was undoubtedly a huge blow to their originally full morale.

The elite of the Jingsai army in Yelitu was indeed well-trained, and soon the fourth herald also jumped out, but this time, the commander showed a look of fear, and his head looked in the direction of the black feather arrow on Qingping Guan from time to time, and his clothes were soaked with sweat.

Li Heiniu's three arrows shot and killed three heralds of the Xia army, but the Xia army did not immediately become confused, and after a little panic, the officers in the Xia army immediately shouted and scolded their soldiers, asking them to focus on keeping the line of attacking the shield wall neatly.

These three arrows were very brilliant and greatly boosted the morale of the Song army, but for the entire attack of the Xia army, it was only a slight delay in time, and it did not make the Xia army retreat.

However, whether it is in the eyes of Yang Shihu or Yang Huairen, Li Heiniu's three arrows have played a sufficient role.

Morale may sound like an ethereal thing in a war, but it can play a key role, and in many cases, it can directly affect the success or failure of the war.

At present, the morale of the Song army is strong, and the morale of the Xia army is weakening, and the balance of victory that was originally slightly biased towards the side of the Xia army has been pulled back into balance, and even slightly tilted towards the side of the Song army.

This is enough, Brother Hei Niu has already become famous in the Song Army and the Xia Army with his extraordinary three arrows!

The Xia army's shield wall array continued to advance, and in the blink of an eye, it had already marched within one hundred and fifty steps from the Qingping Pass city wall!

The horn sounded on the Song army's side, and the archers behind the soldiers guarding the notch of the women's wall heard the trumpet as if they had heard an order, and they took out their feather arrows, raised their military bows in their hands, and aimed at the sky at an angle of about forty-five degrees.

The trumpets stopped, and the archers of the Song army released their arrows together, and in an instant, hundreds of arrows shot into the sky, and in an instant, they scattered like raindrops into the offensive array in the front row of the Xia army.

There was also a scream among the Xia army.

Although under the command of the commander, the attacking soldiers in the front row of the Xia army stopped, knelt on one knee and contracted their bodies, and covered their vital parts with the heavy shield in their hands against the top of their heads, but there was still a lot of space between the oval heavy shields.

Most of the arrows fired by the Song army smashed on the heavy shields and bounced to the other side, but a few arrows passed through the gaps between the shields and hit the legs or feet of the Xia soldiers.

The pain caused the soldiers who had been shot to lose their strength for a moment, threw away their shields, and fell to the ground clutching their hands, screaming loudly.

On the Song army's side, the horn of the herald began to sound and stop rhythmically, and hundreds of archers also followed the order, firing arrows into the sky again and again.

According to the law of the Song army's volley, the Xia army marched slowly for a while, then raised a shield to defend against the rain of arrows, and then followed the order to march forward, and the cycle continued.

The strict discipline made no one in the marching Xia army stop to care about the comrades who were shot and wounded, and they didn't know whether it was indifference or perseverance in their eyes.

Those wounded Xia soldiers were just lying on the ground and moaning in pain, the comrades in front ignored them and continued to advance, and the array in the rear did not receive orders and did not run out to rescue them.

The pain was so great that the vast majority of the soldiers who were shot and wounded were unable to find their shields to protect themselves, and could only watch in pain as waves of arrows rained down from the sky, hoping that fate would allow them to escape this time.

Yang Huairen looked at everything that happened in the Xia army, and unconsciously fell silent. His thoughts suddenly became clear, and there was only one sentence in his heart, it turned out that this was war.

It makes people's blood boil, and at the same time makes people tremble uncontrollably, and the most ruthless thing in war is the coldness, so cold that people can't breathe.

Li Heiniu kept firing his bow and arrows, and shot down several Xia army heralds who were riding on horses and waving the order flag, but as the shield wall of the Xia army's attack got closer and closer to the city wall, the commander who commanded the Xia army's advance was no longer so important.

When the Xia army's shield wall attacked the horizontal queue and marched to only fifty paces away from the city wall, the formation suddenly changed, from a horizontal queue parallel to the city wall to a vertical one.

And the rear of the Xia army suddenly killed several teams of cavalry and rushed towards the direction of Qingping Pass!
