Chapter 109: The enemy retreats
Wang Tian was notified by the clansmen and immediately walked out, but fortunately, someone had already aimed the bed crossbow at those large birds, and had already shot down five or six birds, and their formation was also out of order.
"Use a large bed crossbow..."It's too late to use a medium-sized bed crossbow, Wang Tian can only use a large bed crossbow.
The large bed crossbow fired three arrows in unison, and only the first round shot down one of the birds, but at this time, those birds were getting closer and closer, and the formation began to recover, and seven or eight of them were almost above the wooden city.
Without Wang Tian's personal orders, Wang Shu and the others had already let the clansmen control several other large bed crossbows aimed at the birds that were about to fly over the wooden city.
"Bang... Boom... In the end, only one of the eight large birds flew into the sky above Mucheng, and the other seven were shot down, and several people sitting on it also fell from the air and fell to the ground with serious injuries.
After the man on the large bird reached the sky above the wooden city, he began to throw explosives and grenades down, but the explosive bags were shot through by dense small crossbow arrows, and they did not explode, and those grenades did not even have a chance to land, they exploded in mid-air, and there was no need to shoot crossbow arrows at all.
"These fools, who are afraid of being shot, and are about to throw grenades, don't they know how to count the time?" Wang Tian despised those people in his heart, and sat at a height of thousands of meters and threw grenades, is it useful?
Wang Shu originally wanted his clansmen to shoot down the vulture that had left in the sky above Mucheng, but Wang Tian stopped it, and only needed to deal with the birds that did not come to the sky.
The later ones became clever and let these birds fly thousands of meters above the distance, avoiding the range of small bed crossbows, and came to the sky above the wooden city, where more than thirty large birds circled over the wooden city and threw stones down from it.
"Shoot me, concentrate your fire on one of them, cut off its back, shoot me one end at a time." Wang Tian knew that a hundred-meter-old bird would destroy a lot of houses, but he had to do this, and if they kept throwing stones from above, they would sooner or later cause casualties.
The strings of the large bed crossbow are made of the tendons of ferocious beasts, which can shoot at a range of up to three thousand meters, and those birds are only more than a thousand meters away from Mucheng, so they can be easily shot down, and it only takes more than ten minutes to shoot down a dozen.
In the end, the dozen or so had to stay away from the wooden city and land out of range, and the houses in the wooden city were destroyed by a third, but fortunately the factory was not affected.
"Hang water bags on top of each wooden fence and arrange for the clansmen to enter the arrow tower." Wang Tian commanded the people of this clan to prepare, and he knew that the other party would definitely not give up so easily.
In order not to have to go to the lake often to get water, Wang Tian has asked the tribe to dig four or five wells, so there is no shortage of water in the tribe.
Just as Wang Tian and the others were ready, the enemy came, and there were about 200 people in sight, and after entering the firing range, they lit rockets and shot them at the fence of Mucheng, and at first they did set a part of it on fire, but as the water bag was shot through, those fires were extinguished in an instant.
"Patriarch, the arm crossbow we use has a longer range than their bows and arrows, and it is faster than theirs, why don't we let our people release their arrows?" Wang Shu asked puzzled.
"It's not the time yet, although they are in range, it will definitely not hurt them too much, and it will be useful until they get closer."
The other party was wearing a leather coat, and he didn't need to think about it to know that it was made of the skin of a fierce beast, and even if he could shoot them at such a distance, it would not cause them too many casualties, so he could only release the arrow when they got close.
"But if they get any closer, they'll shoot into the city, I'm afraid ......"
"We also have fierce beast skin armor, even if we shoot the clansmen, we don't have to worry about getting hurt, wait..."Wang Tian said calmly.
Although Wang Shu didn't say anything more, he was still a little worried in his heart, once his side was attacked, it might cause chaos, and the enemy would be in trouble if he attacked again.
At this moment, Wang Fan walked over and said to Wang Tian, "Patriarch, we are ready. ”
"Then start firing back..."Wang Tian waited for this moment.
"Didn't you just say to wait, Patriarch?" Wang Shu asked puzzled.
"I thought that Wang Fan was not ready so quickly, so I waited, but now that I am ready, I can do it." Wang Tian explained as he walked.
A small bed crossbow is set up, an arrow with explosives tied to it is loaded, and a fire is lit and fired.
"Boom... Rumble... Boom..."Just one round of strafing caused half of the enemy to fall, and the rest of the people retreated decisively, but they could not escape the range of the bed crossbow for a short time, they had to scatter and flee.
When they were gathered again, there were only about fifty people left, and nearly three-quarters of them were dead.
"Captain, three-quarters of the people died before they got close, should we still attack?"
"Do you want your brothers to die here? Let's go back and report to the head of the house first. ”
"If we can't take them down, we won't be able to please them when we go back, and the head of the house will definitely punish us, and you may even be killed."
"If all of them are lost here, my whole family will die, bring you back, and show that my family may survive the situation here." Hong Tao has lost all hope.
He hoped that the head of the family would leave a trace of blood for the sake of the loyalty of several generations to their Hong family.
"No, they're catching up." Suddenly, a man ran back and gasped.
"Let's go..."Hong Tao couldn't care so much, so he left first.
"Captain, why don't we fight with them, as long as we can get close to them, their weapons will not have an advantage..."
"Yes, captain, they are far from our opponents in close combat, we still have hope, we don't want to be able to destroy them all, and we have an explanation for taking a few heads back!"
"Don't say it again, since they dare to catch up, it means that they are not afraid of us, there is only a dead end to stay, listen to my orders, no one can stay, go ......" Hong Tao didn't want to take risks, he didn't want these subordinates who had followed him for decades to stay here.
Seeing Hong Tao like this, his subordinates didn't say anything anymore and left with Hong Tao.
When Wang Tian saw them leave on those large birds, he stopped chasing them, and returned to the tribe with his clansmen and those enemies who were not yet dead.
There were no casualties in this battle, which is worth thanking, it can also be said to be a fluke, the other party underestimated the strength of their own side and caught them off guard.
Wang Tian asked an enemy who had been blown off his foot to come up, and asked him directly, "Tell me why you came to attack us at this time, and how are the clansmen you captured now?" ”
"Hmph, if you want to kill, you have to listen to the honor..."
