Chapter 406: The Cuckoo's Cry of the Blood Ape (7)
As the saying goes: 'Anger can be drummed up but not vented!' When the Bashu warriors heard the news of the retreat of the King of Shu, they originally rushed forward one by one, but at this time they turned around and ran madly towards the city. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info For this kind of thing, this has always been the case, when they charge to die together, it is estimated that no one is happy in their hearts.
Even if it is a charge, it is estimated that the soles of these feet are all convergent. But once the spirit of the charge is aroused, it will be like a volcanic eruption, and everyone will go to the fire without fear. The Bashu army in front of him is a clear proof that the already weak army was able to beat the charging Qin cavalry without fighting back and defended everywhere.
If you give the order to retreat, like a raging fire, it will be frozen in an instant, and the fear of death will reoccupy everyone's hearts, and everyone will show their strength without reservation, adopt different ways of running, and quickly leave the battlefield.
There are those who roll and climb, those who walk like flying, and all kinds of fancy running methods, throwing the blades in their hands far away, for fear that these few pounds of weapons will slow down their running speed. What's more, as soon as he heard the news of the retreat, he quickly pulled off the armor on his body, for fear that wearing this thing on his body would affect the speed of running. At the same time, he did not forget to push his companions who were in the way aside, lest he delay his escape.
The cavalry of the Qin army had already heard the shouts of the city, and knew that the person in front of them was Du Yu, the king of Shu. The cavalry of the Qin army changed the rhythm of the attack, if they stepped forward to fight at this moment, it is estimated that it will not be long before they will be killed by the relatives around the king of Shu, and then the king of Shu will be able to calmly withdraw into the city.
The Qin army is worthy of being a master of adaptation on the battlefield, several Qin cavalry made eye contact with each other, quickly took out the bow and arrow on their backs, and took turns shooting, at this time the shooting was very strategic. For those Bashu warriors who rushed towards them, the Qin army was not in a hurry to shoot, but shot all the feather arrows around Du Yu, the king of Shu, and at the same time, the dense feather arrows also built an impermeable wall between the king of Shu and the city gate.
"Not good!" Chen Wan shouted above the city tower, and hurriedly instructed his subordinates:
"Fetch my bow and arrows!"
Chen Wan's personal entourage, some people have been carrying Chen Wan's bow and arrows, Chen Wan has a shoulder injury, so he tested whether he can still pull his treasure carving bow. Chen Wan's treasure carving bow is given by the king of Shu himself, for many years, has been brought with him, the bow body, full of patterns, but also jewelry, gold, jade inlay, very exquisite.
Despite this, its strength is still full, and it can penetrate several layers of armor within a hundred steps, which is a rare and exquisite artifact. Chen Wan didn't have time to think about it, and when he came with his hand, he only felt a heart-piercing pain in his shoulder, but he couldn't take care of it so much at this time.
"Bring the arrows!" After Chen finished bending his bow and attempted, he commanded, and the warrior had already taken out the golden arrow from the quiver.
After Chen finished aiming, found that such a distance, I am afraid that it can not form an effective killing, and then regardless of the danger, go straight to the horse face on the city wall, in the ancient times of cold weapons, in order to strengthen the defense ability of the city gate, many cities are equipped with more than two city gates, forming an "urn city", the city wall protrudes the rectangular pier platform every certain distance, in order to facilitate the defender to attack the enemy from the side, this pier platform is called the city defense facility of the enemy platform, commonly known as "horse face".
In the two chapters of "Mozi", "Bei Ti" and "Bei Gaolin", the "Xingcheng" mentioned in them is "horse face". There are battlement walls on three sides of the outside of the horse face, and the battlements on the left and right sides have battlements, which are convenient for throwing bricks and stones and firing arrows to block the enemy's siege. The battlement wall on the front of the horse face does not have a battlement, and it is two feet higher than the left and right battlement walls, which can prevent arrows from hurting people under the city.
The distance between the horse's face and the horse's face is 120 meters, and the intersection of firepower is 60 meters, which happens to be the effective range and killing range of throwing weapons such as bows and arrows, crossbows, flying hooks, throwing guns, and throwing stones. In this way, outside the main wall, a group of high-altitude dense crossfire networks between the front and the two sides are formed, which improves the defensive function of the city wall.
Chen Wan jumped on the horse, bent his bow and arrows and went straight to the Qin cavalry, at the same time, Du Yu, the king of Shu, had already discovered his dangerous situation, and at this moment, the warriors around him were killed by Qin's feather arrows one by one. The rest of the warriors didn't dare to return to the city directly, the bows and arrows of the Qin people were too terrifying, and those who turned around to kill the generals were able to survive, so that the guards around Du Yu, the king of Shu, began to change.
Everyone is still very concerned about their own life and death, and Du Yu, the king of Shu, is very aware of his situation. When Fang Cai led everyone to charge, everyone could still fight wholeheartedly, but when they retreated at this moment, if there was no strong resistance, they would not be able to retreat to the city.
But now, the people of Qin seem to know their identity, and they bite themselves and don't relax. Just when he was about to be captured alive, he only heard a swish in his ear, and then a cavalryman of the Qin State fell from his horse.
At the same time, I could only hear the fluttering arrows, which were really a hundred steps through the Yang, and the arrows were not missing, and after each sound, there was a Qin soldier who was shot to death, rolling off the horse. Although the haste with which this arrow came, the Qin army was taken aback one by one, but fortunately, all of them were skilled in bows and horses, and they immediately began to counterattack.
The rapid shot made Chen Wan's shoulder, the old injury recur, but at this time, he couldn't take care of so much, Chen Wan had to clench his teeth, and blood still oozed from his shoulder. Countless beads of sweat appeared on Chen Wan's forehead, and at the same time, the arrow rain barrier built by the Qin army was also opened. Du Yu, the king of Shu, took advantage of the situation to turn the horse's head, and he didn't care about any decency, so he galloped over, and at the same time, he looked at it in vain. I thought to myself, 'How can this beaked duck let it run!' ’
But now it's too late to rely on horses and catch up with the war horse of Du Yu, the king of Shu! Thinking of this, Bai Qi put himself on the horse's back, bent down, and took off the bow and arrow hanging from the horse.
Although he was on the horse galloping at high speed, it still had no effect, the play of white archery, the legs clamped the war horse, with the help of the power brought by these legs, the bow opened like a full moon, and others did not see what was going on, this arrow went straight to Du Yu, the king of Shu.
Chen Wan, who was standing on the horse's face, saw it clearly, if this arrow hit the king of Shu, everything would be over, and it was too late to say that it was too late, Chen Wan no longer shot at the cavalry of the Qin army, but went straight to this off-string feather arrow. At this moment, the cavalry of the Qin army was not idle, on the face of the horse, the condor who suddenly appeared, had already shot several companions, in order to prevent further casualties, the cavalry of the Qin army kept greeting Chen Wan with the feather arrows in their hands.
Chen Wan jumped left and right on top of the horse, dodging the shots of the Qin cavalry, and at the same time, he had to keep shooting and counterattacking. At this time, the archers of Bashu are busy retreating, who still has the mind to mix these things! At present, Chen Wan can only deal with the dangerous situation in front of him alone.
