Chapter 80: Finding the Door 2
As the roof and shield were erected, the thick wooden shield was held behind with wooden sticks, and some of the soldiers of the Tiger Guard stood firmly behind the shield, their bows and arrows drawn, ready to shoot arrows at any time, as if they were practicing in ordinary times. Swing it out like this, but there is no archery, waiting for Zhou Nan and Gao Yuan to give orders.
Seeing that the wall of the village was completely covered with wooden boards, the Liao cavalry outside the gate of the village laughed and laughed at the people in the village, such a ridiculous protection, an iron feather arrow can penetrate the iron armor within a hundred steps, what can a wooden board do? They shot at the wooden shields. But I saw that the arrows could be stuck in the wooden shield, and they could no longer pass through.
It turned out that when Zhou Nan asked the craftsmen to make wooden shields, he asked the craftsmen to make this kind of layered shields, the outermost layer is made of thick wood, the second layer is made of rattan armor, just to weave tightly, and the third layer is still thick wood, so that the three-layer shield is inconvenient to carry on the battlefield, but it is very practical when protecting the city.
The arrows of the Liao cavalry hit the wooden shield and stuck on it without any suspense.
Seeing this, the Liao officer waved the weapon in his hand forward, shouting loudly in his mouth, and suddenly the Liao cavalry put away his bow and arrow, rode his horse and rushed towards the wall, his hand was full of iron bones, spears, maces and other weapons, drinking in his mouth, and rushed towards the gate of the village. It seems that he is going to use the heavy blade in his hand to cut open the walled gate.
Zhou Nan saw that he couldn't be good, so he said to Gao Yuan: "Big brother, give an order, teach them to know that I am afraid of them." ”
In fact, Gao Yuan was already on fire just now, but what Lao Zheng Tou said was right, he could bear it if he could, so he pressed his temperament and replied to the Liao officer with a smile. Now hearing Zhou Nan say this, the anger that he had been holding back for a long time burst out: "Shoot!" ”
The archers standing on the wooden shield thick wood had long been ready to shoot arrows, and when they heard Gao Yuan's order, one arrow after another shot out of the arrows full of arrows on the wooden shield, and the Liao cavalry who rushed to the front fell off their horses one after another, and the unsuspecting Liao army hurriedly pulled out the round shield hanging next to the saddle to protect the vital point, and continued to rush towards the gate of the wall. But who is the person shooting the arrow on the wall?! Those are all hunters who have relied on arrows in their hands to eat since they were children, not to mention that after several months of hard training, they are now even more powerful with the bows and arrows of the Song Army in their hands.
A group of Liao cavalry was shot before they could reach the river outside the wall, and none of them ran back. Frightened, the Liao army behind did not dare to rush forward.
Although there were only a dozen Liao troops who were shot off their horses, this round of volleys suddenly shocked the Liao cavalry. The archery skills of these people on the wall are even more accurate than those of them. A dozen cavalrymen rushed over, and none of them could escape. Such archery is terrible.
This shot also made the Liao officer more sure that the person who intercepted and killed them more than 20 miles away in Longmengou at the foot of the mountain the previous time was the person in this cottage. Only this kind of archery can be able to leave the more than 20 far barricades in one shot. If you find the right place, you have to take it down, so that you can return to the official. But there are archers on the wall, and there is a river in front of it, and every arrow shot down from the wall will be hit, and every shot will be wounded, and if a dozen of them rush past like just now, they will be shot and killed, then he, the five hundred, will stay here in less than an hour. And the arrows shot by the Liao soldiers at the walled wall were completely like tickling.
In contrast, the soldiers of the Tiger Guard Capital were greatly more confident, and they cursed down through their shields, and some even laughed and ridiculed them to the fullest.
Seeing such a situation, seeing that he was being tricked by this foolish people outside the wall like a fool, the leader of the Liao soldiers turned back and shouted angrily, only to see more than a dozen Liao soldiers standing in a row, wrapping the front end of the arrow with an oilcloth and igniting it, and shooting it at the wooden shield. The continuous rockets were inserted into the wooden shields, and the soldiers of the Tiger Guards behind the shields fired back downward, and the Liao soldiers who fired the rockets fell in a neat row like a crop that had been cut down.
The wooden shield on the wall was ignited by a rocket, and immediately behind the wall, a young man in the village carried up a piece of new, watered wooden shield, and the soldiers of Huweidu quickly replaced the new shield with the burning shield. Someone poured water on the wooden shield from below the wall, extinguishing the flames.
In a short period of time, the craftsman has not yet come up with a more perfect shield, so he can only make more and replace it at any time. Zhou Nan knew that there was no way, the time was too short, and he would find a way when he had time in the future.
Connivance can be replaced, but it is still the opportunity of the Liao soldiers, taking advantage of the time to replace, shooting into the middle of the arrow stack, the tiger guard has three soldiers who are wounded by the arrows of the Liao soldiers when they shoot outward with the arrow stacks, and several people in the village are unsuspecting when they move off the wooden shields and are shot by the Liao soldiers' stray arrows.
Zhou Nan was busy teaching people to send the wounded soldiers and people with arrows to the playground for treatment, and Gao Yuan commanded the tiger guards who had changed their shields to shoot arrows and shoot back. The soldiers of the Tiger Guard Capital all learned to be obedient this time, and shot the Liao soldiers with rockets first, causing the Liao soldiers to fall one by one in the narrow open space.
At this time, a soldier of the Eagle Guards came down from the lonely mountain and told Zhou Nan that the rear team of the Liao soldiers was cutting down trees to make ladders, and it seemed that they were going to storm the cottage.
Zhou Nan asked the Eagle Guards to move the camera on the lonely mountain without having to report. The soldier turned and went up the hill. Although the Eagle Guards were small, Zhou Nan still divided the Eagle Guards into three teams, each team had a team leader, which was equivalent to the smallest combat unit in the Liao Army and the Song Army. Zhou Fu, Zuo Xiaosi, and Gao Xiaoqi are these three team leaders, when they usually practice, Zhou Nan only proposes the purpose, and the specific implementation is led by the three team leaders to complete it.
Zhou Nan knew that there were too few people in the cottage, so he could only practice according to the method of cultivating elite soldiers, soldiers with strong personal skills and strong fortresses, ordinary soldiers and bandits could not break through, Zhou Nan had this confidence.
People don't offend me, I don't offend people, this is Zhou Nan's principle, and it is also the principle that Zhou Nan has always adhered to since he crossed into this time and space.
Now both sides are on fire. The people of Huweidu are in full blood, and they were shot and injured by the Liao soldiers in their own villages, completely because they did not fulfill their responsibilities to protect the village, just like the beasts that violated their territory by other similar kinds, the people of Huweidu are now concentrated on the wall at the gate of the village, and the people of the squad take turns to shoot arrows down through the wooden shield, venting their resentment and anger.
The Liao cavalry here, the officer didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary mountain village, the people in it not only have superb archery skills, but also people who are good at defending the city like the Southern Army are commanding and practicing in it, and the means of defending the village are full of tricks, so that he, the person who charges into battle, has no idea for a while, and there is no way to take this small cottage.
Fortunately, he has already ordered the people behind him to make a long ladder, as long as he relies on a few more people to die and attack under the wall, no matter how powerful his archery skills are, what can he do in close combat?
