For the city lord's doubts, the snake guard can't explain it.

The Aoki tribe is only two days away from Yangcheng, and the Aoki tribe is a warlike tribe that may attack Yangcheng, so Yangcheng has always been more concerned about the Aoki tribe, but the method of concern is not to directly send people to the residence of the Aoki tribe to investigate, but to learn about the situation of the Aoki tribe through the trade fleet of the Ministry of Commerce.

It's just that since last year, the Aoki tribe has not traded people with the second trading fleet, which makes the dragon tribe think that the Aoki tribe did not fight outside the country last year.

Snake Shou remembered one thing, a few days ago, the Aoki tribe had a transaction with the second trading fleet, although the things traded were only animal skins and no population, but the number of animal skins was very large, more than two thousand, in exchange for more than 100 sets of weapons and equipment, and I was thinking that the Aoki tribe had launched a foreign war again.

Now there is no need to think about it, the Aoki tribe has traded a large number of weapons and equipment, the purpose is to wage war against the outside world, and the target of the war is still a city of the dragon tribe that trades with the Aoki tribe.

Hu Nan and Snake Shou did not complain about why the Ministry of Commerce wanted to trade with the Aoki tribe, after all, the Dragon Tribe obtained a large number of people from the Aoki tribe, and for the army of the Aoki tribe that was almost exhausted, Yangcheng had a strong bow and arrows, and he was not worried about being attacked by the enemy, and even Snake Shou was still thinking about how to capture prisoners after defeating the enemy.

Of course, there is another thing that the snake guard should even consider, there are many people in the army of the Aoki tribe who wear the rattan shield rattan armor made by the dragon tribe, and the defense power of these rattan shield rattan armor is much higher than that of the rattan shield rattan armor produced by the Aoki tribe.

At a distance, only the arrows shot by the longbow can penetrate the Nato shield and vine armor, and only when the distance is closer, the short bow can penetrate the Nato shield and vine armor.

Snake Mamoru recalled in his mind the performance of the Dragon Tribe's standard longbow and standard short bow (recurve bow):

The standard longbow, if you use flying arrows, the range of the arrow is more than 70 zhang, if you use heavy arrows, the distance of 30 zhang can easily penetrate the dragon tribe's standard rattan shield and rattan armor, the two are superimposed together, and when the distance is less than 20 zhang, the dragon tribe's standard copper shield will also be pierced.

The standard short bow, the upper limit of the range is forty zhang, to the distance of forty zhang has not much power, almost even the animal skin is difficult to shoot through, if it is placed at a distance of twenty zhang, a rattan shield or a single rattan armor, can be shot through by the arrows shot by the short bow, giving the enemy who is protected by the rattan shield or rattan armor huge damage.

There are standard longbows and standard short bows, and there are also people who hold non-standard longbows and non-standard short bows in their hands, which are longbows and short bows made by bow masters in the dragon tribe, which are better than standard longbows and just short bows, and only the archers with outstanding performance in the dragon tribe and those who are close to the bow master can get the longbow or short bow made by the bow master.

Even if there were only standard longbows and standard short bows, it was enough, and the enemy was still striding towards the side of Yangcheng in the area one hundred and fifty zhang away, and the heralds had already counted the number of Yangcheng combatants gathered on the western wall.

A total of 2,023 people took part in the battle, of which 1,296 were adults from the field/war army, city defense army, and reserve army, and 727 were juvenile members from the youth army.

The number of archers in the four armies was five hundred and twelve, of which one hundred and forty-six were longbowmen and three hundred and sixty-six were shortbowmen.

The number of archers accounts for only a quarter of the participants in combat, which seems to be relatively high, but in fact it is relatively low, think of the nomadic tribes on the steppe, almost all of them can ride horses and shoot arrows, which the dragon tribe cannot catch.

The five hundred and twelve archers, including the juvenile members of the Boys' Army, hid behind the walls of the city and followed the sound of gongs from the lookout when the enemy approached the city.

The rest of the melee clansmen stood under the city walls, especially near the city gates, and when the archers had routed the enemy, they would rush out of the city and launch a pursuit of the enemy.

It should be noted that among the clansmen in melee combat, the minor clansmen are all combat supporters and are not allowed to fight the enemy.

The original battle plan of the snake guard was to let the longbowmen release the arrows first, and when the enemy was closer to Yangcheng, the shortbowmen also entered the battle.

Hearing the data reported by the herald, there are a total of 512 archers, and the number of enemies in front will not exceed 2,000, I am afraid that my archers can defeat the enemy with a maximum of four volleys, a little less, two salvos may also crush the enemy, or it is possible that after a volley, the enemy will choose to retreat.

When the enemy is about eight zhang away from Yangcheng, the archer hears the sound of the gong and immediately stands up and draws the bow and shoots arrows, and after the enemy is defeated, the second gong is heard, and the melee clansmen rush out of Yangcheng to pursue the enemy, and at the same time the archers stop releasing arrows, and also follow the melee clansmen to pursue the enemy together.

At the same time, the snake guard is ready to put the secret weapon of the dragon tribe into this war, maybe not a single enemy will let go in this battle, but it is a pity that the farmland outside the city is gone.

After a few heralds got the order of the snake guard, they quickly conveyed the order to all the clansmen, and some of the clansmen were ordered to quickly prepare secret weapons, and the great war was about to break out, and there were almost no timid among the clansmen who participated in the war, more of them were excited, and they killed the enemy and made meritorious contributions, which was what they dreamed of.

"This Aoki tribe is really self-defeating." Hu Nan said with emotion.

"Yes, the Aoki tribe is killing itself." Snake Mamoru also said in agreement.

The dragon tribe's strong bow and arrow are the most powerful weapons of the dragon tribe, so the dragon tribe will never trade the bow, even if the copper weapon, rattan shield, and rattan armor are traded, it doesn't matter, under the dragon tribe's strong bow and arrow, no matter how many enemies will be defeated.

Moreover, the copper weapons traded out by the dragon tribe are only coarse copper weapons, and the dragon tribe now has better bronze weapons, and the rattan shield is far inferior to the copper shield that the dragon tribe has equipped in large quantities, and the rattan armor is not as good as the leather armor that the dragon tribe is gradually changing now.

The superiority of weapons and equipment and the superiority of tactics are the reasons why the dragon tribe has always been invincible.

……

In the east of Yangcheng, the army of the Aoki tribe is getting closer and closer to Yangcheng, and many clansmen are looking at Yangcheng excitedly, as if they have seen the scene after the victory of the war, and the three easy victories in a row have made many Aoki tribesmen burst with confidence.

However, as the army of the Aoki tribe approached Yangcheng, the leader of Aoki frowned as he looked at the tall walls of Yangcheng.

Looking at the city wall from a distance, I don't feel much, the closer to Yangcheng, a sense of heaviness arises spontaneously, how to break through this tall city wall? Knock it down? Or crawl over it?
