Chapter 69: Repulsion
When Niu Han led the cattle cavalry to the gate of the parapet, there were only more than 50 cattle cavalry left around him.
Most of the scalper cavalry were lost in the charge.
Under the command of Niu Han, the scalper cavalry drove a scalper and launched a final charge towards the gate of the parapet.
Rumble~!
With an earth-shattering bang, the steel gate of the parapet shook violently.
What will happen if a scalper weighing more than two tons sprints with all its might and hits a five-centimeter-thick steel gate?
The ox died on the spot, and the steel gate was similarly slightly dented.
"Whew~!"
Seeing that the steel gate had withstood the test, Meng Chen exhaled a long breath and said secretly in his heart: "It's good to resist!" The people of Manniu Village are really rough! ”
Niu Han said with a shocked face: "How is it possible? Why can't it be broken? ”
Arrows were fired rapidly, and Niu Han could only lead the ox cavalry and hide at the base of the parapet wall.
Due to the problem of shooting, the marksmen and elite archers had to stop shooting.
However, the sharpshooter did not give up, but always tightened the bowstring to aim at the top of the parapet, and once a scalper cavalry accidentally came up, dozens of deadly arrows awaited him.
The scalpers and cavalry huddled together and clinged to the base of the parapet, not daring to make any bold moves.
At this time, a scalper with a young face cried to Niu Han: "Third uncle, he died so miserably, he was trampled to death by a scalper!" ”
With the crying of the immature scalper cavalry, the rest of the scalper cavalry also showed a sad look, and even more were already secretly wiping their tears.
"We're going to die!"
"We're going to be shot alive!"
"Third uncle, let's withdraw!"
For a time, pessimism and despair enveloped all the scalpers.
"Shut up, don't cry! As long as we can break through the gate, we still have a chance! Those shooters, it is impossible to stop the charge of scalpers! Niu Han cheered up.
A scalper knight beside him retorted weakly: "Can ...... But many shooters are standing on the tower. Even if you rush in, the scalper won't be able to hit it? ”
When many scalper cavalry heard this, the desire to survive that had just risen was suddenly suppressed again.
Niu Han glared at the scalper fiercely, then pointed at him and ordered, "You, go and knock the gate open!" ”
"I ...... I? The scalper looked up at the top of the protective wall, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "This is to die, I won't go!" ”
Niu Han's eyes flashed fiercely, grabbed the scalper by the collar, and threw it at the gate of the parapet.
"Ah~!"
With a frightened scream, the scalper flew more than ten meters away.
It may be because Niu Han's strength is too great, or it may be because of the violent struggle of this scalper cavalry, causing this scalper to fall to the ground, he has already appeared in the shooting range of the marksman.
Sou! Sou! Sou......
A series of sharp arrows broke through the air, and the scalper was shot into a hedgehog by dozens of arrows.
"......" The middle-aged man was speechless.
And the surrounding ox cavalry, desperately driving the mounts, have stayed away from Niu Han's side.
"You ......"
Although he was a little angry, Niu Han was helpless against the resistance of the scalper cavalry.
So, Niu Han decided to go out in person.
After turning over and getting off the cow, Niu Han walked along the root of the parapet wall and cautiously came to the gate.
Looking at the scalper with a broken skull in front of the gate, Niu Han secretly said in his heart: "This gate shouldn't be so strong?" Could it be that the scalper is at the wrong angle? ”
Note: Meng Chen insidiously disguised the steel gate as the original gate.
Drink~!
Niu Han burst into a shout, mobilized all his body's qi and blood, and threw a punch towards the steel gate.
Boom~!
A melodious metal concussion sounded, and Niu Han's face turned pale.
"Damn! This is a 100-steel gate, and the thickness should be close to two inches! Niu Han scolded.
At this time, Niu Han had completely given up his plan to break through the gate.
Unless Niu Han reaches the realm of quenching, it will never be possible to break this door.
Seeing that Niu Han's face was cloudy, the surrounding cattle cavalry became agitated again.
The immature-looking scalper cavalryman persuaded again: "Third uncle, let's withdraw!" ”
Niu Han gritted his teeth fiercely and said, "Let's withdraw!" ”
Subsequently, more than 50 ox cavalry began to move.
Instead of returning the way they came, the scalpers moved to one side along the root of the parapet wall, so as to avoid being set on fire by the six guard towers to the greatest extent.
Through the sound of the scalper cavalry moving, Meng Chen quickly understood their intentions, but Meng Chen had nothing to do to stop them.
After all, the scalper cavalry moves very fast, and without the same cavalry, it is difficult for Meng Chen to leave all the scalper cavalry behind.
While the scalpers were away from the base of the wall, the sharpshooters on two or three guard towers fired again.
In the end, Niu Han only led more than 30 ox cavalry and fled from the range of the marksman.
After the scalpers fled, Meng Chen asked Alfred to command the soldiers and sweep the battlefield outside the parapet.
Alfred bowed down and asked, "Lord Lord, what to do with the wounded scalpers?" ”
At this time, there were six wounded scalpers outside the parapet.
These six scalper cavalrymen, after being hit by arrows and falling behind the ox, were lucky not to be trampled to death by the ox.
It is impossible for the City of Hope to take in these six scalpers and kill them......
After pondering for a moment, Meng Chen replied, "Since Niu Han and the others have escaped, then these scalper cavalry are irrelevant. Tie them to the back of a scalper and let them get out of the way! ”
"Yes! Your Lord! Alfred responded.
Although Meng Chen relied on his geographical advantage to easily win this head-on conflict with Manniu Village, Meng Chen did not relax his vigilance.
After all, there are more than ten warriors from Wumeng City in Manniu Village, and these warriors are the real reliance of Manniu Village.
In the evening, Alfred reported the results of the sweep to Meng Chen, "Your Excellency, we have captured a total of eighty-nine cattle in this battle, of which thirty-six are in good condition, and the remaining fifty-three have been sent to the slaughterhouse. ”
"Fifty-three oxen, according to the calculation of 2,000 units of grain each, can make a total of 106,000 units of grain. It's more than ten days of hunting! This is also a war profit, right? Meng Chen laughed.
Then, Meng Chen smiled and said, "Alfred, the Barbarian Bull Village has lost a total of hundreds of scalper cavalry twice before and after, which is really hurtful. They certainly won't let go of the City of Hope easily. During this time, double the number of soldiers on duty to prevent the sneak attack of Manniu Village! ”
"Yes! Your Lord! Alfred replied aloud.
