And at this time, the enemy was assigned to seize the heights that the troops had reached the foot of this small highland.

The high ground is not large, and the distance from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain is only two or three hundred meters, but even so, if the enemy wants to copy the Earl's back road, he still has to conquer this place to be able to do so.

The enemy's light infantry was the vanguard, and the armed infantry behind them charged under the urging of the ragged and poorly equipped, but the offensive was impressive against the backdrop of numbers.

"Baron Beyer, let the light infantry go up, please!" Although William and Baron Bayer have the same title, he still takes the initiative and commands Baron Upper Bayer to obey him.

Baron Byer nodded, and asked the herald beside him to give the order, and the flag bearer in the middle of the light infantry was also a small squire of high status, and he took two guards by his side, holding the banner of Baron Byer, and began to walk down the mountain.

"Archer, throw two rounds!" William gave orders to the archers gathered behind him, and the reason for only two rounds of fire was that he wanted to save the archers and wait until the enemy was closer before shooting.

Before the two armies could engage in battle, the enemy suffered heavy losses under the blows of two rounds of arrow rain, and more than 100 people lost their ability to fight.

The recurve compound bow was once again powerful on the battlefield, and the enemy archers were at the back of the line, all of them of poor quality, with a range of at most thirty or forty meters.

This effective range is fundamentally different from that of a recurve compound bow, and the effective range of more than 100 meters can teach local archers to behave.

"Damn! How could their bows and arrows shoot so far! Behind the opposing armed infantry, a nobleman roared loudly in annoyance.

Such traditional aristocrats have never paid much attention to archers, and even if they form archer troops, they are only to harass the enemy army.

But they didn't expect that the archers, who had always been ignored by them, gave them such a big stumbling block at this critical moment, and directly lost more than a hundred people in two rounds of shooting.

Their strength is full of 14500 people, and their opponents are much more numerous, although they are attacking upwards and are a little disadvantaged, but the number of people here makes them still full of confidence.

"Keep attacking, and when the two armies want to pick up, their archers will be useless!" Another nobleman apparently thought more and used this to boost morale.

The armed infantry behind also shouted with him very cooperatively, conveying these words to the light infantry at the front.

The light infantry has long been full of fear of the enemy's archers, because most of the people who were shot were shot through the body, and it was still at such a long distance, but fortunately, the noble lords were really wise, and they thought of a solution so quickly, so hurry up and charge!

The light infantry was composed of serfs, these people were ignorant and ignorant, and because of the limitations of their vision and education, they were serious, and the nobles and monks were the wisest people, so they never dared to resist these people.

This is also the official reason why the rule of the medieval aristocracy was basically not overthrown by the serfs in another time and space, even the serfs ruled by William.

But it has to be said that this is really not without benefits, at least for now, the enemy soldiers are charging towards the mountain at a rapid pace.

While going up the mountain and going down the mountain, the speed and momentum of the two sides obviously cannot be the same, and the light infantry under Baron Baier is very fast under the acceleration of gravity, and at the same time it is very labor-saving, compared to the enemy's uphill, it is very appropriate.

Therefore, when the two armies wanted to pick up, Baron Bayer's light infantry was like a rainbow, and the dung forks and wooden sticks in his hands hit the enemy's body one after another.

In this way, under the acceleration of gravity, many people used inertia to directly knock the enemy backwards, and the enemy's entire formation was a few steps back.

The two sides were locked in a bitter battle, the light infantry fought with little formation and discipline to speak of, and the flag bearer, as the soul of the army, could not participate in the battle, and he was staying in the middle of the line with his two guards at this time.

In order to kill the enemy and keep their name, these light infantry will do everything to save their name, some hold the enemy's thigh, and some will knock the enemy down and bite him, even if this will reduce their survival rate.

William, from the top of the hill, watched the unsightly battle below, and walked over to the archer.

He raised his right hand, and the archers followed his gesture, and the arrows were taken out of the quiver and placed on the bowstring.

"Open the bow!" William shouted, and all the archers pulled their bowstrings with their muscles, which had become so powerful under brutal training.

"Put!" William dropped his hand heavily and shouted at the same time.

"Bouncing...... Search......! ”

The sound of arrows was fired, and the recurve compound bow was powerful, and the powerful kinetic energy quickly pulled the bowstring back, causing a sound at the same time.

The same is true of the arrows, which, with the powerful kinetic energy granted by the bow, pierce the air, causing a piercing sound of breaking through the air.

The sound of the enemy pile is more familiar, because they have heard this voice just now, and the lesson brought by blood is always unforgettable.

They looked up at the sky in horror, only to see arrows appear above their heads out of thin air, and the rain of arrows, which did not look like a rain of arrows, caused them to panic.

The sound of breaking through the air grew louder and louder, and their series of movements and moods just now were only in a split second, because the interval between the launch of the arrow and the time it hit their body would not exceed a second.

The arrows had obviously landed a little further back, and William didn't want to kill the enemy and injure himself at the same time, so he specifically asked the archers to throw them.

Another 300 arrows fell, and as the enemy's formation became tighter, the number of killed and wounded enemies was noticeably more, and it was visible to the naked eye that part of the enemy's formation fell in the middle.

At this moment, the nobles behind were in a hurry, and these three rounds of shooting directly lost nearly 300 light infantry, and the remaining light infantry was more than 500, and the numerical advantage would soon be consumed by the enemy.

"Archers! Start fighting back! The nobles of the enemy were in a hurry, and as soon as a few people discussed, they directly gathered the archers together, gathered more than three hundred people, and began to fight back at William.

Of course, their range is still not up to the archers, but it is still possible to deploy the archers in the middle of the light infantry and shoot at the light infantry of Baron Byer.

More than three hundred archers, obeying their master's orders, began to draw their bows and shoot arrows, and more than three hundred arrows poured down into the light infantry of Baron Baier.

Although their bows are weak and weak, and the range is not far, the effect is not very large, but it depends on who the opponent is, of course it is impossible to deal with knights and heavy infantry, and it is difficult to even deal with armed infantry to have much threat, but they are facing unarmed light infantry first, what defense can a cloth suit have?
