Chapter 80: Battle [M]

Yang Zilu was naturally not to be outdone, and let Yao Hua be arrogant. Controlling the horses, he stopped in front of the soldiers of the Nine Kui Tribe, clenched his fists, raised his arms high, and said loudly: "Warriors of the Nine Kui Tribe, not long ago, we defeated the two-clan alliance army with 500 people, killing and wounding 700 people!" Now let's get our booty, beautiful Sea Salt Girl! And tons of food! These were originally ours! But the servants are going to take it, and you say what we should do! ”

"Kill them!" The war maniac roared loudly.

"Take them into slavery!" The soldier who tasted the sweetness of slavery shouted loudly.

Yang Zilu picked up a spear, pointed in the direction of the soldiers of the Servant Division, and shouted: "The warriors of the Nine Kui Division! Let the servants know who the real warriors are! Offensive! Kill all the wild dogs, beauties! Food! Honor! Status! Everything is waiting for you! Kill! ”

"Kill! ......" The soldiers of the Nine Kui Divisions all felt their blood boiling, and they shook their spears, and the spears made a whistling sound.

"Kill! ......" The soldiers of the servant department on the opposite side were not to be outdone, the killing word of the Jiukui department had just been exported, and the soldiers of the servant department had already roared. All of a sudden, the murderous spirit was wild.

Yao Hua waved the bronze short sword in his hand, like a fierce beast, and roared with a hideous face: "Attack!" ”

"Array!" Yang Zilu also roared.

The two hundred soldiers of the Nine Kui Divisions were divided into two parts, one hundred and fifty men, and lined up in the front with spears, divided into three rows, the first row of soldiers with spears held flat, the second row of spears passing through the gap between the men in the first row, and the third row of spears resting on the shoulders of the second and first rows. Suddenly, a forest of spears like hedgehogs appeared in front of the servant's eyes.

Even Yao Hua couldn't help but feel frightened, he didn't know where to attack, they had always only rushed and punched, and they didn't think about attacking from both flanks at all.

The remaining fifty men were armed with bows and crossbows. Thanks to the Imperial Guard, the first compound bow of the Nine Kuibu was successfully made. The composite bow is six feet long, with fir as the main trunk, and the inner wall of the bow is pasted with the adapted bamboo that has been tested many times, and there is fish glue sticking in the bamboo, and there are ropes at both ends of the bamboo to tie and fix. Using animal tendons as bowstrings, the effective range can reach up to 45 steps, about 90 meters.

And the crossbow made by Yang Zilu has an effective range of only fifty-six paces after many improvements, which is only twenty meters longer than the compound bow made by the Imperial Guard.

Compared to the Nine Kui Divisions, the Servant Divisions were much worse, and their hunting bows made of bamboo only had an effective range of fifteen paces. (2 meters per step)

In the face of the charging soldiers of the Servant Division, the crossbowmen of the Nine Kui Divisions showed a hideous smile and shot a rain of arrows before the Servant Division, compared with the Nine Kui Division, the people of the Servant Division only wore animal skins, and the brave people, like Yao Hua, did not wear animal skins at all on their upper bodies to show their fierce tattoos and bravery.

However, at this moment, the arrows used by the soldiers of the Jiukui Department are not the bone arrows and wooden arrows commonly used by the Shanyue people. Rather, it is an iron arrowhead, although the pig iron used to make these arrowheads contains a lot of impurities, and it is inferior to the hammered short sword in terms of hardness and sharpness. But it was more than enough to deal with the soldiers of the servant department who did not even have leather armor.

When the first round of arrow rain fell, at least eight people fell in the servants' department, and no less than twenty people were injured, and even Yao Hua couldn't avoid it. An arrow in the abdomen. However, Yao Hua is also worthy of being the first warrior of the servant department, and he directly pulled out the arrow, revealing a wound that was not much smaller than the dragon's eye. Yao Hua roared: "Kill!" ”

Yao Hua's lead made the morale that had been reduced by the blow of the arrow rain soar immediately, and it was three points higher than before.

"Shoot!" Yang Zilu rode on the horse, and was not all frightened because the morale of the servant department did not drop but rose. Yang Zilu is very calm, morale in the era of cold weapons is indeed very important, even more important than equipment and numbers, but it also needs to be strategically launched to attack. And Yao Hua is now like a mad dog, if he deals with it calmly, Yao Hua's mad dog is not even as threatening as a goat.

Hearing Yang Zilu's order, the rain of arrows shot out again, and this time the rain of arrows was even more powerful than the first round, directly knocking over the twelve or thirteen people. However, the third round of arrow rain was too late to shoot out, which made Yang Zilu a little regretful, and roared: "The wings of the crossbowmen are spread out, ready to fight in close combat at any time!" ”

The crossbowmen immediately dispersed to the flanks as soon as they received the order, but they were positioned a little further back than the spear battle formation, and at the same time the distance was also far away, apparently preparing to snipe the enemy while the enemy was entangled with the spear battle array.

At this time, the hunting bow of the servant department also sent out their first counterattack, and the not too dense arrow rain made the spear battle array scratch a little, but the damage of the hunting bow was not great, especially the people in the front row were equipped with leather armor. There is a bamboo hat on the head. Although the defensive power of the hat is not strong, it also greatly reduces the power of the bone arrows in the servant's part. But even so, there were still casualties, but these casualties were too small compared to the servants.

Yang Zilu turned a blind eye to all this, and he knew that this was not the time to be emotional, so he roared: "Forward!" ”

The spear battle array advanced slowly, and Yao Hua took the lead in leading people to rush forward, holding a thick bronze short sword in each hand, and the spear in front of him slashed into pieces. But the others did not have the strength of Yao Hua, and the sharp spear stabbed out, and immediately collected the surnames of more than a dozen servant soldiers, and there were no less than thirty casualties.

"Whoosh! Sou! ......" And at this time, the bowstring sounded, and the soldiers of the Servant Division suddenly found that they didn't know when the archers of the Nine Kui Division had gone around their flanks. Because the soldiers of the Nine Kui Department have formed a battle formation, and the front is full of dense servant soldiers, there is no need to be afraid of accidental injuries at all.

The unprepared servants screamed again and again, and Yang Zilu also took the opportunity to ride out, holding the spear back, as if projecting a javelin, and rushed to the front of a servant soldier, the other party obviously recognized Yang Zilu, and immediately greeted Yang Zilu with a bronze axe with a hideous face.

The corners of Yang Zilu's mouth curled up with a sneer, and the spear in his hand stabbed out without hesitation, nailing the soldier of the servant department to the ground. Yang Zilu's palm loosened, and he knew that if he didn't release it in time, then his arm would be easily injured by the backlash, and even fractured.

For this, Yang Zilu also paid the price of blood, but fortunately, the speed of the horses was not fast at that time, so the injury was not big, but the muscles were slightly twisted.
