"The military order of the lord, all the archers of the Purple Gold Flower Legion, gather in the school field, and after receiving the blood bow and arrowhead, go to the city wall." Centurion Lancester, armed with an unsheathed crosssword, stood in front of Lohrcardin's barracks. When the order is loudly announced, his Adam's apple can be seen rising and falling, and it is only when he does not speak and swallows saliva that this Adam's apple gradually reappears.

Hearing the centurion's urging, the boots of a thousand archers kicked the ground, almost moving their muscles and bones to carry out this military order.

After about ten minutes, all the Purple Gold Flower Shooters stood on top of the earthen walls of the town of Lol Cardin, their chests held out, and they stood as straight as a row of exclamation symbols.

A sound of forward, like a black wave turning angrily, like a galloping horse. A sound is upright, like a dense forest without wind, standing still.

In just five or six days, the Purple Gold Flower Legion was able to do this, and it took more than just sweat......

On the flagpole of the town of Lorkadan, there are at least ten heads that have been cut off during the forced training, and each head has a pair of hollow and dead eyes, just as cold as Lorkadan's military discipline.

"Turn left - salute your lord!"

With a command, the purple and gold flower archers standing in a row on the city wall turned their heads neatly and saluted in the same direction.

Yasuo, Lord of Lorkadan, with a blood bow in his hand, appeared in their sight.

Coming to the slightly shabby earthen walls of Lol Cardan, the bow in front of the Purple Gold Flower Archer was in a straight line in Yasuo's observation. The length of each blood bow is about 1.5 meters, which is roughly the height of the chest.

The shape is similar to that of a normal longbow, but the range of an arrow shot from a blood bow is about 5oo meters. Moreover, even at the limit distance of 500 meters, ordinary chain mail can still be easily pierced with the use of a conical arrow.

Yasuo took a blood bow in his hand and weighed it, trying to pull it. Although it is difficult to pull it with his strength, it can be roughly judged: "If you want to swing this blood bow, you need about 8o catties of pulling force, and if you increase the strength, you will shoot farther and more powerful." ”

According to the strength of the first-order archer of the Purple Flower Legion, he can swing 7% of the power of the blood bow. Coupled with the lack of training, the blood bow has been greatly reduced.

"Ready--"

On top of the walls of Lol Cardin.

Every shooter of the Purple Flower Legion is just wearing an ordinary sandwich tights. With a deliberately elongated tone, their gestures were neat, and the arrows were aimed at the camp of the Duanmu City army, and the bows were drawn neatly, and the strong pull force made the strings quickly deform.

"Shoot the arrows!"

The centurion's military order was brewing, and he shouted loudly following one of Yasuo's glances.

Huhu――――

After the archers let go, the elastic potential energy of the bow was converted into the kinetic energy of the arrow, and a large number of arrows flashed in the darkness, leaving only the whirring sound of breaking wind.

Unable to wait for the arrow to land and react to the enemy, Yasuo quickly ordered, "Second salvo!" ”

A good longbow is better than a crossbow on the battlefield, mainly by shooting quickly.

In terms of firepower density, the combat effectiveness of a first-order shooter is at least equivalent to that of three crossbowmen.

A skilled first-order archer can accurately shoot 12 arrows in a minute, if it is a chaotic arrow, the shooting can be increased to 15, if it is a third-order and fourth-order heavy archer, it can be called an individual** strength and degree can be ** out of 1oo arrows in a minute. Such an average shot can be called a storm.

"Enemy attack!"

"It's a bow and arrow. We are within the enemy's range. ”

"Hurry up—ah!"

There was a lot of commotion in the army camp in Duanmu City, mixed with many screams.

A thousand longbowmen shoot at the same time, and tens of thousands of arrows can be shot in a minute, forming an out-and-out storm of feathered arrows. And its long range, as well as its powerful lethality, surprised Yasuo again.

After the second salvo, Yasuo ordered the rocket to be ignited. The target has also changed from the ordinary Duanmu City army to the camp of the elite, heavily armed warriors of Duanmu City in the other direction.

"Precisely calibrated, we don't have many rockets, only enough for one salvo consumption."

Yasuo reminded the centurion beside him. Spread your own commands.

Due to the rush of time.

There was no more time to prepare, and Lol Cardin's own stored rockets, as Yasuo said, were only enough for one salvo.

Rockets are different from regular arrowheads. This kind of arrow is relatively long, in order to prevent the shaft from being burned, and it is also very wide. Before archery, a special large arrow is wrapped in linen, covered with oil, and burned for a few minutes.

Wait for the tip of the arrow to burn red and then point the fuel cloth, after shooting out, the burning oil cloth will ensure that the arrow will not cool down.

If the linen cloth is not extinguished, it is just right, even if it is extinguished in flight, but the temperature of the arrow is maintained, and the red-hot arrow will still ignite if it is pierced on wood or flammable materials.

As the saying goes: fire and water are merciless. The thief stole half of it, and burned it all. With the help of the wind, the fire spread endlessly into the surrounding area, even outside the range.

Standing on top of the earthen walls beneath the dome, Yasuo's brow furrowed.

Looking at the past at a glance, almost all of the entire Duanmu City military camp was set on fire. The casualties that the enemy was suffering were even worse than he had expected. Due to their exposure to the firing range, the entire Duanmu City army, like a flock of sheep scattered by wolves and tigers, desperately ran in the fire, trampling each other.

"It's been a night. Perhaps, Lol Cardin will be able to defuse this crisis without the help of people at all. Yasuo thought.

Under the reflection of the firelight, his gaze was like a fireball, and the light was scorching.

For the first time, I saw the effectiveness of the shooter with the Blood Bow in battle. Yasuo had to re-examine the importance of the Purple Flower Archer to the entire legion.

The improvement of basic attributes, although improving the explosive power of the body and muscles, ensures arm strength and endurance for continuous combat. But for the training of bows and arrows, the Purple Gold Flower Archers have only 1 point of professional specialization so far.

There are such unexpected results, most of them with the help of the Blood Bow.

After witnessing the power of the Blood Bow with his own eyes, Yasuo's heart couldn't help but sigh, "Suppose, the Purple Gold Flower Legion cultivates both warrior and archer professions, or swordsman and archer professions. Take hand-to-hand combat with a longbow at a distance and at close range. Coupled with physical toughness and heavy armor, it will definitely become a storage that dominates the battlefield. This will be beyond doubt. ”

Marquis Duanmucheng was defeated by the blood bow he 'sent' to the Lol Cardans.

This is a great irony.

The attitude towards Marquis Vought in his heart turned to mockery, and in Yasuo's perspective, the combination of the archer and the blood bow was so efficient.

However, most of the lords of the human race rarely have such elite formations in their armies.

Aside from the expense of the blood bow, let's not talk about it for the time being. There is also the problem of concept, most of the human lords worship chivalry and aristocratic demeanor, and think that ordinary archers, and even archers, have a lowly professional background and a despicable way of fighting.

A professional shooter with melee ability as a scum, as long as he has strong equipment. Standing far away, or hiding in the grass with a cold arrow, can take the noble life of a knight, which is extremely immoral and tantamount to cheating in battle.

Even with the support of the elves of the Starry Sky Empire, for nearly a hundred years, human beings have only cowered in the land of the Solar Plains.

This is inevitably related to their lack of pragmatism.

……………………

The casualties of the Duanmu City army can only be counted after dawn.

Return to the Lord's Residence. Yasuo's mind was still immersed in the storm of feathered arrows just now, calculating what to consider. Playing with a blood bow in his hand, he felt that the weight in his hand was less than 2o catties.

It's just that whenever Yasuo wants to try to pull the bowstring, he feels that it will require no less than 8o pounds of tension. With Yasuo's thirteen-year-old age and thin physique, it still seems a little reluctant to pull away the blood bow.

"The one who has the bow kneades the wood and the string is the arrow".

According to Yasuo's knowledge of bows, the most important process of making a bow is how to bend it.

Each Blood Bow is in a simple circular shape, and in doing so, skilled craftsmen do not use fire to roast it, which would reduce the tension of the bow.

But it can't be bent into place all at once, in that case, even if the arched back is not broken, it will cause internal injuries and lose its elasticity, and the previous busy work will be in vain.

The process of bending is often referred to as 'taming the bow', which is the process of getting the back of the bow to adapt to the bending.

Doing this requires a specialized bracket, and the hardness and elasticity of Bloodwood can easily do the job a little. As for the bow foot head, it is carved from the horns of animals, and the bowstring is made of ** fibers kneaded with animal tendons.

His eyes were fixed on the Blood Bow in his hand, and Yasuo hoped that this powerful ranged weapon would be mass-produced by Loel Cardin, of course, if there was enough Blood Bow Wood.

When dawn comes, most objects in the wild can already be identified by the naked eye.

"Lord Lord, the fifteen-thousand-sized Duanmu City army lost more than half of it last night. Of these, 4,000 were killed by arrowheads, and 2,000 were burned to death and burned. Less than two thousand were directly killed. ”

As he listened to the guard's report, Yasuo's eyes were half-closed, as if he was in a state of half-free and half-conscious fatigue.

"There are less than 7,000 troops left in Duanmu City, so Lorkadin can welcome our enemies, and there is no need for dome defenses. What do you think, my officer of the guard? ”

Yasuo, who closed his eyes and recuperated, opened his eyes slightly, blinked his eyes, outlined the corners of his mouth, and showed a light sense of humor to his guard officer in his tone.

The fact that Yasuo felt relieved was that the Duanmu City army, which had lost its morale, wanted to attack Lol Cardan, but it had become impossible.

Even if Webley loses his mind, he insists on attacking. Then Yasuo would gladly use Lorkadan's fortifications and consume his remaining strength.

In fact, Webley's fate was told by Yasuo as early as last night.

Half a day later, Yasuo learned that Webley had been directly executed in the name of dereliction of duty by the knights sent by Duanmu City. Seven thousand Duanmu City soldiers, with the head of their commander, left Loel Cardin in disgrace.

Yasuo wrote in his lord's journal: "A thousand blood archers, the defeat of the Duanmu City army ten times greater, will be a wonderful example. It was also an epic victory. ”
