Chapter 974: Another killer feature

Otherwise, these arrows would not have been fired from their flanks and fronts, but from their sides, and they would not have noticed it in advance, even though there were many masters on their side, but few of those ordinary soldiers could survive the rain of arrows.

But even so, after this rain of arrows, forty or fifty ordinary soldiers fell off their horses screaming, and nearly a hundred horses were hit by arrows.

Wang Junlin was suddenly distressed to death, this is Fanyang County, unlike Yongzhou in the northwest, as long as there is a fight for money to get thousands of war horses, it is nothing, but even if there is silver war horses here, it is not easy to buy, these more than five or five hundred war horses are still when they first came to Fanyang County, the thousand cavalry besieged and killed him, and nearly half of them were killed, and the war horses left behind, and later Wang Junlin asked people to find a way to buy some from the Khitans in the north, so that the government soldiers could get enough five hundred war horses, and after this wave of arrow rain, there were more than 100 dead and wounded, how could he not feel distressed.

Such a powerful crossbow attack, and the other party's careful preparation, made Wang Junlin feel a trace of death.

The crossbow rain is still flying, and there is a miserable howl of horses at the entrance of the valley, at the beginning of the attack, Wang Junlin's warning in advance and the last shout played a very important role, a group of masters and nearly half of the soldiers were hiding under the horses, and people who did not dodge, such as the Spring and Autumn Valley Lord and the Spring and Autumn Slave, could easily hit the arrows aside, and the insect demon was also responsible for watching Lu Youwei, and also protected it by the way.

Those sailors and generals were not slow to react, they also hid under the belly of the horse, and those who were not good at riding jumped off the horse directly, crawled on the ground and avoided the rain of arrows.

Wang Junlin watched as the crossbow arrows stabbed into the bodies and heads of several soldiers behind him, pierced and tore into the chest, abdomen and eye sockets of the horses, piercing and tearing, detaching these living flesh and blood from the lives on which they were attached.

As long as the dodge is slow, there is no way to avoid it, more than 200 slow reaction soldiers died under the rain of arrows from the first ground, and those who were lucky not to die were also seriously injured and dying, and those horses fell to the ground with a neighing miserab, and the blood stained the ground of the valley mouth, looking miserable.

There were corpses everywhere, arrows everywhere, blood everywhere, death everywhere.

The Spring and Autumn Valley Lord suddenly let out a long roar, and his whole body flew up, and he was about to shoot towards the valley.

However, while others were in mid-air, with a thunderous sound of breaking the air, a giant crossbow arrow suddenly shot out from the woods on the hillside in front of him, shooting straight into the chest of the Spring and Autumn Valley Lord, as fast as lightning.

However, almost at the same time, the Spring and Autumn Valley Lord let out another long roar and pulled out the long jet-black knife that he had almost never pulled out.

There was a dull bang, and the giant crossbow arrow was slashed to pieces by the Spring and Autumn Valley Lord.

The Spring and Autumn Valley Lord had already taken the opportunity to kick the bluestone on the ground under his feet and swept into the mountain forest, and then a series of screams came from the mountain forest.

At the same time, a thin golden shadow quickly scurried into the hillside trees on the left.

The others were not strong enough, so they could only continue to crawl, and there were war horses to resist, and the arrows could no longer shoot them, but the war horses kept being shot to death.

When Wang Junlin saw this scene, his eyes were already cold, and the murderous intent in his heart was already monstrous. But his face became more and more calm, because only calmness can make the most effective counterattack.

"Dog Killer."

"Dog Killer."

Suddenly, in the woods on both sides, except for the screams brought by the little golden snake of the Spring and Autumn Valley Lord and the insect demon, there was a shout, and then I saw thousands of people rushing out from inside with knives.

Wang Junlin shouted: "Get up and prepare to defend against the enemy." ”

Shan Xiongxin shouted and ordered: "If the government soldiers hesitate, they will be killed!" Flee the battle! ”

After saying two words in one breath, he has organized the remaining nearly four hundred government soldiers together to form a battle array, because the war horses are basically scrapped except for the blood-maned horses, so the government soldiers can only fight on foot, but the government soldiers mainly practice foot combat, and Shan Xiongxin is also proficient in foot combat.

And nearly thirty masters from the Blue Cloth Guard Mansion and the Wulin League had all gathered around Wang Junlin and Perfume, and Wang Junlin asked the nine sailor generals and Lu Youwei to come over, and put them in the middle, which could be regarded as protection.

More than 400 soldiers from all over the province stabilized their minds one after another under the leadership of Shan Xiongxin, and began to step down the battle formation, swarming from the valley It was clear that they were a group of thieves dressed as bandits, but looking at the archery they had just shot and charged at this time, they were by no means ordinary bandits.

Fortunately, these nearly 400 government soldiers have undergone strict training by Shan Xiongxin for more than a month, not to mention that 50 of them were selected from the 100 guards brought by Wang Junlin, and under their leadership, these nearly 400 government soldiers can be called elite.

Soon, between the valley mouths, a hollow military formation with a radius of six zhang was set up, and Wang Junlin and the masters and generals around him were roughly encircled in the center.

The enemy army is numerous, but the organization is very chaotic, obviously although fierce, but it looks like it is really a green forest bandit, and it is very likely that it is not from the same cottage, it is obvious that the Lu clan spent a huge amount of blood to knead them all together, of course, it is also possible that these bandits were originally secretly raised by the Lu clan, just like the five thousand pirates on Snake Island they had raised before.

On the other hand, on Wang Junlin's side, the military discipline of nearly 400 soldiers was much better, and the opponent could not easily break it for a while. It's just that the thickness of the battle array is too thin. And every time the enemy forces that rush forward are killed, they become thinner and thinner.

Wang Junlin immediately sent out thirty masters, but he didn't send them to join the battle array, because that would mess up the battle formation of the government soldiers, and he directly let these thirty or so masters jump out of the battle formation and kill among the bandits. Only Perfume, Insect Demon, Spring and Autumn Slave, Lu Youwei and nine sailor generals were left in the formation.

And on the hillsides on both sides in the distance, the screams had stopped, and it was obvious that the Spring and Autumn Valley Lord and the little golden snake of the insect demon had rushed to this side.

Although there are two or three thousand of these bandits, Wang Junlin knows that these people can't hurt themselves, but these bandits don't know how much silver they have taken from the Lu clan or what promises they have made, and they are extremely brave, if they kill all these people, it is estimated that the nearly four hundred soldiers will be consumed, and even the more than thirty masters will be killed and injured.

"There may be an ambush in the Lu clan that hasn't appeared." Wang Junlin was frowning and pondering, and the perfume next to him had already spoken.

Wang Junlin nodded and said, "That's right, there should be more powerful killer features, otherwise ......"

The second half of his sentence was quickly swallowed up by a tidal wave of shouts, and the mountain king with a purple-black face led dozens of bandits riding high-headed horses, and suddenly rushed from behind the bandits, looking extremely brave.
