The sky was cloudy, and the head of the city was covered with a layer of white mist.

Suddenly, the sound of iron horses broke the silence of the early morning.

With the sound of thunderous iron hooves, a large area of Khitan cavalry with bald hair and obliquely wrapped in animal skins appeared in the light mist.

At a glance, in the haze, the sound of horses roared, and it was impossible to see how many soldiers and horses there were.

The news of the discovery of the Khitan cavalry in the south of the city immediately spread throughout the city of Huaihuang Town.

Suddenly, wolf smoke billowed into the sky, and the sound of the desolate horn sounded over and over again in the city. The women and children in Huaihuang Town were panicked, and the men took up their swords and guns.

On the gate in the south of the city that had just been built, Tan Zong held an iron pestle, looked at the large Khitan iron horsemen under the city, laughed, and said: "Wow! So many Khitans, just rushed out, let me kill a lot. ”

Seeing that Tanzong was going to go out of the city, the trio of Ji Chuan, Liu Yi, and Zhou Xu on the side were all discolored.

"Captain Tan, no!" The three of them hugged their arms and the other hugged their legs to stop Tan Zong.

"His grandmother's, why stop me, afraid that I won't be able to beat me?" Tan Zong touched his bald head and shouted with an iron pestle.

The three of them were stared at by Tan Zong like this, and they were all furious in their hearts.

Ji Chuanqiang said with a smile: "Captain Tan is brave, how can the Khitans be opponents when they are idle, but if you go out of the city to fight, if the Khitans take the opportunity to attack the city, it will not be good." ”

When Tan Zong heard this, the meat on his two shoulders jumped and jumped, and he said angrily: "You can't even stop a Khitan, you will only drag a certain hind leg." ”

At this time, a soldier strode in front of Tanzong and said: "Captain Tan, no Khitan cavalry has been found in the north of the city, in the east of the city, or in the west of the city. ”

"I'm afraid, although the city wall has not been repaired, there is also a heavy sheep and horse wall blocking it, and the Khitan cavalry can't rush up," Tan Zong shouted at the moment, "Have the two thousand garrisons been ordered?" ”

"Yes, Captain Tan, it's being called."

"Tell them not to look away, but to come to the south of the city to guard together."

"How does this make the Khitans attack the city on the other three sides?" Ji Chuan said in shock.

"I'm very afraid, I'm very afraid, you scholars are afraid of wolves and tigers, and you are angry."

"Listen to me, come to the south of the city together, guard it for me, and the crossbow in the warehouse, don't hide it, take it out for me, give it to the Khitan barbarians, and see a certain crossbow."

Everyone listened to Tanzong's blind command here, and they all shook their heads, and they didn't know how many Khitan cavalry were surrounded outside the city, Li Chongjiu, and Yinghefu's six hundred cavalry were uncertain, and the current situation in Huaihuang City was really chaotic.

However, everyone really did not follow Tanzong's intentions, and quietly left 300 soldiers at each of the three city gates to guard, and another 100 soldiers patrolled the city.

And in the south of the city, two hundred soldiers and a thousand soldiers entered the sheep and horse wall together, and there were also people climbing on the raised horse wall, holding bows and arrows, and strictly guarding.

The Khitan cavalry besieged the city, and anyone knew that after breaking the city, they would definitely be unlucky, so the women, children, the old and the weak spontaneously mobilized and carried arrows to the south of the city.

At this time of crisis, 7,000 soldiers and civilians in Huaihuang Town showed good organization and mobilization, from the time they noticed the appearance of the Khitan cavalry to the Khitan people who had finished recuperating and preparing to attack.

They are also already ready.

As the sky dawned, two Khitan cavalry joined in the distance, and the Khitan army was all in place, and the other chieftain seemed to feel that he should not let the defenders continue to prepare.

Whining!

At that moment, the horn sounded in the Khitan army, and the cavalry in the front row shouted oh, raised the long knife in his hand and waved.

Soon after, hundreds of Khitan cavalry, wrapped diagonally in animal skins and exposing one arm, suddenly plunged forward from behind the formation.

When everyone at the head of the city saw the scene, they were all surprised, could it be that the Khitans could not attack the city with cavalry.

The horse's hooves galloped, and the horsemen galloped and flashed, and when they came to a close place, they saw the Khitan people on horseback, and they all stretched out their bows and arrows.

At the moment, several teams are shouting badly.

And at this time, the Khitans brushed the ground and shot arrows in the saddle!

The arrow flew over the sheep and horse wall, and the garrison army, who had no combat experience, was attacked by this arrow at the moment and was suddenly hit by the arrow.

After the arrow, they were behind the sheep and horse wall, wailing and rolling, so that they lost more blood.

After a brief panic, the current garrison, under the command of experienced government soldiers, began to fire arrows outside the sheep and horse wall in groups of several people.

The sheep and horse wall was repaired half a foot high, enough for an adult man, to show his eyes, and the garrisons, under the command of the veterans, raised the nine bucket bows in their hands together and shot at the cavalry running in front.

It doesn't matter if you shoot accurately or not, there will always be a shot when you shoot indiscriminately, and it doesn't matter if you shoot vigorously or not, anyway, after the iron-clad arrow arc drew a trajectory in the air, it easily tore the leather robe on the Khitan cavalry.

On the other hand, the bone arrows and stone arrows shot by the Khitans were fast and accurate, but the lethality to the garrison army was not great.

After the two sides shot each other all the way, the Khitan cavalry relied on the unparalleled kung fu of cavalry and archery, and the Cangtou army relied on sharp weapons, and the two sides suffered casualties on each other.

After the test with cavalry and shooting, in the Khitan army, a green ox was pressed forward, indicating that an enemy chief personally stepped forward to command the town.

After a series of cheer-like shouts, hundreds of Khitan infantry soldiers with leather shields in one hand and bones, long knives, and maces in the other went into battle.

These Khitan infantry troops holding leather shields lined up in a tight formation and slowly approached forward.

On the side of Huaihuang City, the wounded soldiers have been treated by women and children.

When the garrisons saw the blood, their panic when they first went into battle eased slightly, but seeing the heavily armed Khitan army approaching, everyone was big-headed.

The sheep and horse wall is only half a zhang, and the infantry can easily climb over the wall without the help of anything, and if the two sides engage in close combat, they are all garrisons that can only be used as auxiliaries, and they will definitely not be the opponents of the brave Khitans.

Seeing that the Khitan infantry army was approaching eighty steps in front of the sheep and horse wall, under the shouts of the government soldiers, the garrison army began to fire arrows together.

The Nine Bucket Bow is only slightly better than the ordinary hunting bow, not to mention penetrating the leather shield, even if it is shot on the leather armor of the Khitans, it is only penetrable, and the other party is not impressed, and continues to rush forward.

It can be said that three arrows are not as good as one knife.

The Khitan infantry army, facing the arrow feathers shot by the Cangtou army, approached to forty steps, and when they arrived here, the horn sounded in the Khitan formation.

The ferocious Khitans, after hearing the order, all shouted at the same time, threw their positions at the moment, carried leather shields, and rushed towards the sheep and horse wall with a straggler line, ready to capture the city.

"It's time."

Tan Zong on the city wall laughed loudly, and immediately pressed his hand, and the crossbow on the head of the city, as well as the crossbow of the four stones, suddenly fired arrows.

As the name suggests, the open crossbow means that the upper string can be pulled apart by both arms, while the open crossbow is stepped on with the feet or knees.

Fifty crossbows with two stones, and twenty crossbows with three stones.

At that moment, the arrows shot by the crossbow were like a sharp cutting machine, harvesting the dozens of Khitan infantry charging in front of them in the blink of an eye.

The arrows covered the chest of the hole, and the Khitan troops in front of them all snorted without snorting, looking up to the sky and rushing blood, and died violently on the ground.
