Especially when he thought that the mysterious treasure that blew up the city gate last night was also from this young prison army, the Zhejia army couldn't help but feel that Zhang Bin was a little unfathomable.

Zhang Bin's own archery skills are very good, when he was in Dashun City, he was instructed and trained by the super archer Wang Sunchen for a period of time, and his archery skills improved by leaps and bounds, and when he left Dashun City that day, he had already stepped into the ranks of archery.

This is the first time that Zhang Bin has used force in front of the father and son of the Zhe family and the army of the Zhe family, and he has shown such clever archery skills, which makes the army of the Zhe family really a little surprised.

Because in their impression, most of the civil officials in the Great Song Dynasty were powerless officials, even if many of them could shoot arrows, they had never seen them, and even heard that there were civil officials who were archers.

The archers of the other Zhejia army also shot repeatedly, causing heavy casualties to the Liao army.

The Liao army, which was blocked under the city, finally waited for the signal to retreat, and retreated like a tide. Like shrimp, crab and shells on the beach after low tide, they left more than 700 corpses under the city, and the same number of wounded.

With Zhang Bin's current identity, especially in the hearts of the Great Song Dynasty Tianzi and Han Qi, Wang Anshi and others, his safety itself is far more than this small Shuitou City, if he is not completely sure, he will naturally not risk his life, the reason why he does this, in addition to killing the enemy by the way and improving the morale of the party, is to take the opportunity to practice archery, after all, shooting and killing people on the battlefield is not the same as practicing archery in peacetime.

As soon as the Liao people retreated to rest, they didn't have to worry about Zhang Bin, so they ordered people to come up to clean up the wounded soldiers on the city wall.

Zhang Bin was well prepared in advance, and deliberately asked Han Sanlang to bring a few doctors in the huge caravan, and at this time he ran to the city with some of the Han people who were organized in the caravan, and used simple stretchers to carry down dozens of wounded soldiers who were unlucky and hit arrows for treatment.

Regardless of whether these wounded soldiers can be saved or not, the process of saving people is very important and must be taken seriously, because this has a great impact on the morale of the troops and the soldiers' courage to fight.

It's just that Shuitou City is really not big, and under the strong attack of five or six rounds of Liao people in one afternoon, the originally low city wall has been dilapidated. However, the foundation of the city wall was extremely solid, and as soon as the Liao people retreated, Su Guo immediately organized the more than 4,000 Liao people to repair the city wall with things dismantled from the houses in the city.

The color of the walls is different from the upper half of the wall from the ground to the chest-length area. As long as you have a little understanding of the history of the Datong Mansion area, you can see at a glance that the small castle of Shuitou City is built on the basis of the old city of the Sui and Tang dynasties and the Five Dynasties.

The perimeter of the city wall is only 300 steps, which also shows that this city is just a large post station that was the most common in the border area during a previous dynasty, and was used as a beacon and guarded the traffic arteries leading to Taihang Mountain.

Zhang Bin looked at the enemy army in the distance, and on the wall in his hand, there was a circle of hideous-looking heads. This is not the beheading left behind when the Liao people outside the city attacked the city wall, but in the afternoon when the Liao people outside the city attacked the city most fiercely, nearly 100 Liao people in the city who were forced by the Song army to carry the tools to defend the city suddenly rioted, but they were all shot and killed on the spot by the defenders who had been prepared for a long time.

The heads are all hung on the city wall to deter other Liao people in the city, and the late autumn here has been compared with the winter in the Central Plains, which can be called the cold and the ground is freezing, and they are not afraid that these heads will rot in a short period of time and emit a foul smell.

Although Zhang Bin was confident, he actually gave Zhang Bin a lot of headaches and worries. The grain and grass are enough to support the arrival of that variable three months later, and there are several ancient wells left by the old dynasty in Shuitou City, so there is no need to worry about the water source, what worries Zhang Bin the most is that when they came, there were not many arrows with them, and Shuitou City itself did not have many arrows.

The Song army mainly used bows and crossbows, and the most common means of fighting the enemy was to fire ten thousand arrows in unison, and the enemy would shoot into a group of hedgehogs in the future. An arrow from the cluster of arrows, the shaft of the arrow to the arrow feather, basically costs seven or eight dollars, and a command array on the battlefield can shoot all the arrows worth dozens of times.

For example, in today's countries, only the relatively wealthy Great Song Dynasty can allow soldiers to shoot desperately as if they don't need money when they are fighting, even if the army of the Liao State, a large northern country, goes into battle, they have to try to save it, not to mention the Western Xia, which is so poor that they can't eat enough.

It was because of the habit that the defenders had already shot nearly half of the arrows on their bodies in half a day, and at this time, on average, there were only twenty arrows left in each person's quiver.

Now the defenders in the city can maintain their morale because of the few casualties, but if there are no bows and arrows, and they fight face-to-face, the situation will be very different, after all, their numbers are constantly decreasing, and although the Liao people have more casualties, the Liao people will continue to have reinforcements coming.

Another clarion call interrupted Zhang Bin's train of thought.

Raising his eyes to look at the Liao people who were in a commotion in the distance, Zhang Bin casually pulled the longbow in his hand, thinking that this time he just practiced his archery skills on the battlefield.

The strong bow used by Zhang Bin was given to him by Wang Sunchen in Dashun City at the beginning of the year, and its accuracy was much better than that of ordinary standard bows and arrows in the army, and it was more labor-saving to pull, but at most twenty arrows in one breath, Zhang Bin had to change his other arm.

However, as time went by, more and more enemies were shot, and Zhang Bin now shot more and more arrows, and he unconsciously realized how to control the strength, with the least effort, or even as little effort as possible to shoot the enemy.

The living environment of the Liao people is relative to the Song Kingdom, which is considered to be in the bitter cold land of the north, most of them do not know how to cultivate the fields, and the living conditions are quite difficult.

So even though they continued to have a large number of people dying, the siege never stopped, and this was still the tribal army of various tribes, and it is not an exaggeration to say that these people were herdsmen.

It was more than an hour of attack and defense, and once the Liao people attacked the city, but as soon as they attacked, they were killed by the Song army.

The morale of the Liao army gradually declined, and the horn of the Liao people in the rear to collect their troops sounded, and the Liao people silently collected their troops like a tide.

…………

…………

As the Liao people were once again repulsed, the defenders at the head of the city cheered and soared into the sky.

Outside the city, there was silence in the Liao army, a deathly silence, and everyone's faces were a little ugly.

However, this slightly decadent mood did not last long in the Liao army, partly because they had the advantage of numbers after all, and they also knew that reinforcements would come, thinking that the Song people in the city would be exhausted by them sooner or later.

On the other hand, it is because the Liao people's will to fight has reached an extremely strong level, and they will not easily affect their fighting spirit because of a temporary defeat on the battlefield.
