Chapter 32: A Little Trouble with the Bed Crossbow
The blood-red demonic qi crescent that was more than two feet long came sideways under the control of Zhao Wushuang's divine sense power, and then swiped straight forward from a position three feet above the ground!
This is equivalent to enveloping all the Qing soldiers in front of Zhao Wushuang on the trail of the city wall in the attack range of this demonic crescent moon!
What happened next is obvious.
The archers who were still firing their bows under the walls with a sinister smile or a crazy expression didn't even have time to react before they were slashed through their bodies by the razor-sharp crescent moon - as easily as a blade slashed through tofu. Even the archers who saw Zhao Wushuang's terrifying body and wanted to flee could not escape the doom of death.
On the city wall, there was a flash of blood. Stumps are everywhere, and blood is pouring down!
The Qing archers didn't even have time to let out a scream before they broke in two. This is similar to the horrific punishment of the half-cut - except that the half-cut does not make people die instantly, right?
Don't forget, although Zhao Wushuang is indeed a strange snake with the blood of the dragon clan, the current cultivation level is probably closer to ...... in terms of form Goblin!
And an important source of demonic energy is the blood and soul of the dead!
A few years ago, Zhao Wushuang was only four or five meters long, and his strength was still relatively weak. Participated in the battle between the Canton Navy and the British fleet, and went on a killing spree on the deck, killing many British Yankees and sucking their blood to gain demonic energy. At that time, because of the conflict between the demonic qi and the immortal power carried by the unformed reverse scales at seven inches, it was bombarded by the British heavy artillery, and it almost hung up directly......
Now, as long as it is not a very special situation, he has gradually evolved from a "demon" to a real "divine beast", and Zhao Wushuang will naturally no longer be as savage as he was at the beginning, eating the enemy's flesh and sucking the enemy's blood to obtain demon qi.
The moment that sharp blood-red demon qi blood moon slashed by, he opened his bloody mouth towards the front! Those Qing army archers who were in a dying state because their bodies were already broken, their souls were unstable, and they were directly sucked by Zhao Wushuang......
Ordinary people can't see the souls of the dead. But if at this time, there was a cultivator whose mana was higher than that of Zhao Wushuang from the air, he could see the blood-red souls of the dead surging towards Zhao Wushuang's open blood basin mouth, and then being swallowed into his stomach. Transformed into demonic qi and stored in the inner pill that had not yet been refined by him......
All in all, in just a few breaths, half of the city wall had already been emptied by Zhao Wushuang. The lives of a large number of Qing soldiers were harvested by this dragon god......
Then Zhao Wushuang's huge body turned backwards, and those archers on the other side had already seen the terrifying scene that had taken place on the city wall trail on this side. So the quicker guys had already dropped their bows and arrows, and then ran towards the inner city, fleeing the battlefield directly. I don't know if I want to sneak into people's homes and hide, or how to escape.
It has to be said that their choice was very wise. Zhao Wushuang didn't have time to pay attention to a single or small group of Qing soldiers, his purpose was to clear the field, and it was a large-scale killing force!
Therefore, those children of the Eight Banners who did not have time to escape or were loyal to the Manchus continued to become a great tragedy......
Some of the brave and brave men of the banner people who were not afraid of death and did not believe in evil also shouted slogans such as "Long live my emperor", "Long live Aixin Jueluo", and "Shoot the demons and monsters", and then shot with their bows.
Although the rain of arrows was like a forest, a cold weapon of the level of an ordinary bow and arrow was like tickling to Zhao Wushuang's body now. There was a continuous crisp sound that shot at his scale armor, clanging, like the impact of metal! The arrows left only faint traces on the surface of the scale armor, and then disappeared.
Those bannermen, warriors, and archers were all dumbfounded!
Zhao Wushuang sneered in his heart, and once again slashed out a blood-red demonic crescent from his back. This side of the city wall trail was also cleared, and at the same time, a large number of souls were absorbed contentedly......
But at this time, a hoarse roar suddenly sounded: "Damn youkai! Dare to conspire with heaven and earth to rebel, I am forever solid, how can you wait for Xiaoxiao to be damaged! β
Well? What's the situation?
Zhao Wushuang followed the sound and looked at a place similar to a "beacon tower" high in front of him, only to find that a huge wooden machine had appeared in the open space at the top of the observation deck. There were about a dozen people next to him.
I saw that the wooden body was also inlaid with various metal sheets for fixation, there were two huge bowstrings, and ten muscular Qing soldiers were using a winch to pull a huge bow and arrow with a swarthy body, five or six feet longβof course, not so much a bow and arrow, but a spear with feathers!
"It's ...... Bed crossbow! β
Zhao Wushuang suddenly understood, what this thing was.
The bed crossbow, also known as the bed crossbow, reached its peak during the Northern Song Dynasty. It evolved on the basis of the Tang Dynasty winch crossbow. Combining two or three large bows strengthens the tension and strength of the crossbow.
When opening the crossbow, the crossbow string is fastened to the winch with a thick rope, and the soldiers need to shake the winch, open the crossbow string, and set up the giant arrows - the bows and arrows used are made of large wood as rods and iron pieces as feathers, known as "one gun and three swords and arrows". In fact, it can be considered a gun (spear) with a feather, and it is very destructive! When firing, the soldier slams the trigger with a sledgehammer and fires the arrow into the distance.
And to use this extremely terrifying bed crossbow, the number of people who twist the shaft when the string is stretched alone is five to seven people; The largest ones are called "eight-bull crossbows", and some even require more than 100 people to open the bow!!
The bed crossbow that appeared in the open space at the top of the observation deck in front of him was operated by more than ten people, and it was relatively small.
Now, it's time to unleash the arrows!
In fact, at the same time as the man shouted loudly, someone had already smashed the trigger with a sledgehammer.
Sou!!!
Huge bows and arrows burst through the air, with a piercing and high-pitched howl. And because the power is so great, the arrows at the front of this huge bow almost rub the feeling of Mars in the air.
It was too late for Zhao Wushuang to dodge at this time, and this huge bow and arrow shot by the bed crossbow also had a lot of lethality to him!
"What a carelessness! Leave a small nuisance. β
Zhao Wushuang felt that he was indeed a little underestimated, otherwise he would not have only noticed the archers on both sides of the city wall trail, and ignored the terrifying bed ballista hidden on the belvedere above......
"But such a small means is not too difficult for the deity! It's just a big deal to consume more demonic energy. Let's try the power of the deity to manipulate the demonic energy! I'm ...... O dragon god! β
Zhao Wushuang let out a roar, and a large area of red demonic qi flew out directly from behind him, so fast that the human eye couldn't keep up with the speed spread out in front of him, and then bent backwards, forming a hemispherical eggshell light curtain!
As soon as it was formed, the huge bed crossbow bow and arrow had already been shot!
Shot at the hemispherical eggshell that the demonic energy had transformed!
