Chapter Forty-Six: The First Battle

After shooting the second arrow, Zhang Song picked up the largest of the three whistles on his chest and blew it fiercely.

The whistle woke the entire blacksmith shop from its dream, because there was often an emergency assembly training, so the apprentices' response was very fast and effective, in just four or five minutes, more than twenty old apprentices had already passed the armor and gathered in the middle of the courtyard.

Chen Xian was also woken up at the first moment of the whistle, unlike other apprentices, he knew that he had not arranged confrontation training tonight, so he was more nervous than others.

After jumping out of bed, Chen Xian panicked for a few seconds, and after hesitating for a few seconds between wearing armor and not wearing armor, he gave up his intention to wear armor, picked up five and six halves from the pillow, and took three steps and two steps from the ladder in the corner of the bedroom to the attic.

By the time Chen Xian rushed up to the attic and ran to the back wall window where the whistle came to look, the bonfire had already been lit, and the intruder had just chopped a bush with a Pu knife and rushed into the courtyard.

Chen Xian raised his gun shortly, aimed it for a moment, and then put it down again.

He found that there were not many invading people, it seemed that there were only a dozen, rifles in hand, and the number of intruders was less than his bullets, Chen Xian's panic and fear finally calmed down a little, and he began to think normally.

Putting five or six halves against the wall, Chen Xian took off a bow hanging by the attic window and quickly wound the bow.

The attic on the second floor is the combat platform prepared by Chen Xian for himself, the entire courtyard attic is open, between the houses, there is also a passage with wooden planks, he can quickly reach any direction of the courtyard here, each direction has some small inside and large shooting windows, Chen Xian hangs a bow on the wall in each direction, and a pot of arrows for backup.

After stringing the bow, Boss Liu rushed through the backyard with a group of brothers and arrived less than ten meters from the back wall of the shop.

Chen Xian stretched out his bow and shot an arrow in the face of an intruder who was rushing forward.

Chen Xian's archery is not bad, when he hunts with a bow, he can shoot at the pigeons stationed in the field twenty or thirty meters away, and the moving target is often practiced, although he misses nine out of ten shots at flying birds, but for the face of a person ten meters away, and it is a face moving in a straight line, he is still difficult to miss.

Chen Xian's arrow suddenly caused a small confusion among the invaders, and the invaders who were still big just now immediately shrank their heads and became careful, and some people's footsteps became melancholy and slow.

At this moment, one of the thieves in heavy armor roared, and at his urging, the thieves accelerated towards the backyard wall.

They felt that if they rushed under the wall, they would be able to enter the blind spot of the shooter in the attic.

Chen Xian stretched out his bow and set up arrows, and shot three arrows at the heavily armored thief who roared and commanded, but all of them were broken by the armor on the other party's body.

Seeing this, Chen Xian threw away the bow and arrow in his hand, glanced at the rifle placed against the wall not far away, and rushed down the attic back to the bedroom.

Back in the bedroom, Chen Xian took off the big black eagle crossbow hanging on the wall and rushed up to the attic like the wind.

At this time, most of the thieves had already rushed under the back wall and entered Chen Xian's shooting blind spot.

From the shouting command of the opposing commander, Chen Xian heard that the thief planned to attack from the right rear of the courtyard.

The back wall of the front shop of this blacksmith shop, the back wall of the left and right wings is actually the wall of the shop, only leaving a small gap in the four corners of the shop, and the four short walls connect the back walls of the surrounding houses, and the four guard towers are built here, and only the walls of these four corners can be climbed, and other places need to climb over the house.

Hearing this, Chen Xian grabbed his rifle and put it on his back, and carried the big black eagle to the connecting passage between the back room and the right wing, which was built with wooden planks not far from the guard tower, and there was a ladder leading to the guard tower in the corner.

Chen Xian stepped onto the watchtower in two steps, pulled Zhang Song, who was carefully shooting arrows, away, and brought the big black eagle to the edge of the watchtower, on a few small shooting holes on the wooden floor.

The four legs of these four guard towers are close to the four corners of the courtyard wall, and the platform supported by the legs is larger than the four legs, that is to say, a small part of the edge of the platform extends beyond the wall.

These shooting holes are the size of a fist, and on this dark night, it is difficult for those below to see the shooting holes on the floor of the four-meter-high guard tower.

Chen Xian took the big black eagle to the shooting hole and pulled the trigger fiercely at the bare door of a heavily armored intruder who rushed to a thousand faces.

The Great Black Hawk's short bolt of crossbow bolts slammed into the bridge of the intruder's nose, causing him to let out a terrible howl.

The sudden ferocious attack and the terrible howl of the attacker immediately caused confusion among the intruders. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chen Xian turned around and shouted to the apprentices who had completed the assembly in the courtyard: "Attention, this is not a drill, there are real intruders outside, there are about fifteen or sixteen people on the other side, you go out from the main gate, line up in the front yard, and then bypass the courtyard and attack the opponent's flank!" ”

I heard that it was a real enemy, the teenagers did not panic, the so-called newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, these teenagers practice martial arts every day, waiting for this day, they don't know how cruel the battlefield is, and naturally they don't know how scared.

After instructing the apprentice, Chen Xian turned around and shot a few crossbows at the crowd under the watchtower, the first two crossbows he shot at the heavy armor, but after two arrows, he changed the target, the heavy armor after the first unlucky ghost was shot down, he learned fine, one by one not only lowered his head, but also used his arm armor to protect the door, he shot two arrows did not penetrate the enemy's heavy armor.

So Chen Xian turned his attention to those enemies who were not fully armored.

Most of the enemies who were not fully armored were holding bows and arrows, and after Chen Xian shot two people in a row, he couldn't help but retreat, no matter how loudly the previous commander reprimanded, it was useless to let them shoot at Chen Xian on the watchtower.

Seeing that he could not collect the archers, the leader ordered the heavily armored men to build a human wall and climb over the wall.

Chen Xian listened to his opponent's command, retreated to the connecting passage of the house, retreated to the corner of the attic of the back house and the wooden boardwalk, squatted in the corner of the wall, and pointed the big black eagle against the wall.

Sure enough, after a while, an intrusion in heavy armor climbed up the wall, he lowered his head, as if he was afraid of the crossbowman on the watchtower above his head, so he lowered his head, but from Chen Xian's angle, he could still see his face.

With a whoosh, the heavily armored thief screamed and fell off the wall......

After being dragged by Chen Xian for a few minutes, the intruder suddenly heard a neat running sound, and a moment later a team rushed out of the darkness and rushed towards the chaotic thieves.

From the time this team of people rushed out of the darkness outside the bonfire to the flank of the intruder, in just a distance of ten or twenty steps, the intruder didn't have time to complete the team at all, and was hit on the flank by two and a half mandarin duck formations in such a mess!

After several months of training, coupled with the change of equipment, today's teenagers are different from before, they are wearing armor, the weapons in their hands are more sophisticated, half a year of food and drink and sufficient training, so that the physical condition of this group of half-sized children who are growing strength has been greatly improved, plus they are twice as many as the other party, and they are attacking from the flank, so as soon as the two sides collide, the invaders were torn apart.

But the next scene surprised Chen Xian.
