Chapter 59: Heart-piercing arrows

……

Heichai silently watched the Fire Dance people a few hundred meters away in front of him busy in an orderly manner, a moat was across in front of the Black Mountain army, there was a row of wooden fences behind the river, and behind the wooden fence there was a three-meter-high earthen wall, and there were neat phoenix soldiers standing on the earthen wall, and the soldiers in the front row each held a huge tortoiseshell shield in their hands, and a three-meter-long spear in their right hands. Four arrow towers were built on the four corners of the village, and there were also several soldiers looking at the arrow towers.

While Heichai was observing the situation in the village, Liu Zhibang and Aya were also standing on the earthen wall at the entrance of the village to observe the Black Mountain army on the opposite side.

Aya looked at it for a while, then turned to Liu Zhibang and said, "They all came out of the jungle, and now they are all in range, attack!" ”

The edge of the jungle is nearly three hundred meters away from the entrance of the village, where the army of the Black Mountain Clan has been focused, but Liu Zhibang shook his head and said: "Although this distance can be shot, the lethality is not very strong, and once they are attacked, they will definitely retreat into the jungle, so it will be a surprise, we will wait for them to attack first, even if they retreat, they will have to pay more price, and then wait......"

Hei Chai observed for a while, and suddenly ordered: "Hei Ge, you bring a hundred shield bearers, two hundred archers to attack from the front, Hei Duo, you take two hundred people, go around the east and west sides of the village from the jungle, and when the frontal battle in the village begins, you will start attacking......"

Liu Zhibang saw that there was a rush on the edge of the jungle, a hundred people holding shields made of bronze and wooden planks lined up neatly, slowly pushing towards the front of the village, followed by two hundred archers behind the shields, also lined up in a neat line, Liu Zhibang was shocked, and said in his heart: "This black guess is not simple, it actually uses a regular army to command the war method, it seems that he still doesn't have enough information about him......"

"Two Hundred Steps......

"One Hundred and Eighty Steps......

"One Hundred and Fifty Steps......

Messages kept coming from the tower.

Hei Ge held a heavy bronze axe in his hand, looked contemptuously at the earthen wall more than a hundred paces away, and thought to himself, if you take another twenty steps, you can taste the power of the Black Mountain Clan's arrow array.

Liu Zhibang raised a hand high, and when he saw that the shield hand of the Black Mountain Clan was about to reach the entrance of the village a hundred steps, he waved his big hand down vigorously.

Sail......

Two hundred arrows left the string at the same time, shooting like a dark cloud towards the frontal attack phalanx of the Black Mountain Clan.

"Ah......h

"Ah...... Ah......h

Screams rang out, and a large number of archers fell to the ground.

"Evacuate ......"

Before Hei Ge gave the order, his subordinates had already begun to run backwards, Hei Ge scolded and spread his big feet and ran back desperately, the hundred shield bearers because they had shields in their hands, the losses were not very large, and they only shot down a dozen people.

When Hei Duo heard the loud noise, he thought that his people had begun to attack in a big way, and with a shout, he jumped out of the jungle and rushed towards the Fire Dance village, followed by a group of Black Mountainegrin people shouting with various weapons.

But what made Heido feel a little strange was that the screams in the north only rang out for a while and then went silent.

"What's going on!"

As he ran, Heido turned his head to look in the direction of the north side of the village, but he was startled when he saw that the clansmen who were attacking from the front were retreating frantically.

When Hedo stopped, a neat line of archers suddenly appeared behind the earthen wall a hundred paces in front of him.

"Putting ......"

"Ah......h

"Ah......h

"Captain...... Ah......h

Before Hei Duo could come to his senses, an arrow had already pierced his leather armor, and it flew through his body for more than ten meters before falling to the ground. Heido felt a huge pain coming from his chest, and the strength quickly drained from his body, and Heido's eyes darkened, and he fell to the ground.

"Big brother, Liu Zhibang's arrows are farther than ours, and we have suffered heavy losses!" Hei Ge panted and ran to Hei Chai in front of him, still in shock.

Looking at the archers lying on the ground in front of them, there were fifty or sixty people, many of whom did not die, but were still wailing on the ground. Heichai's face was black, and his eyes looked at Liu Zhibang, who was dressed in white at the entrance of the village, and his anger almost made him burn.

A Montenegrin ran over and said, "Patriarch, the attacks on the east and west sides of the village have also been repulsed, we have suffered heavy casualties, and the captain of Heiduo is also ......."

Heichai hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with Heiduo!" ”

The Montenegrin said with a sad face: "Captain Heiduo died in battle......

"Third brother, ......"

Heichai's body shook for a while, Qi Kun hurriedly supported him, Heichai took a while to relieve his breath, stood up straight, and said loudly: "All retreat into the forest!" ”

Liu Zhibang saw the Black Mountain tribesmen slowly retreating into the jungle, and said with a sigh of relief: "Lift the alert, everyone rest in place!" ”

Liu Zhibang looked at it for a while before coming down from the earthen wall, Aya greeted him, and Liu Zhibang asked, "How are the casualties?" ”

Aya replied: "I went to check just now, there were no casualties, according to the reported figures, in this first battle, the enemy was shot dead more than 70 people, more than 100 people were injured, and one of the people shot seemed to be Heiduo." ”

Liu Zhibang said with some surprise: "Hei Duo, you mean Hei Duo, the third brother of Hei Guess, hum, I heard that he is very brave, and ordinary more than a dozen people can't beat him, hmph, no matter how high his kung fu is, he will die under my strong bow and arrows......"

Aya nodded, and continued: "Now that Heichai has retreated into the forest, what do you think he will do next?" ”

Liu Zhibang shook his head and said: "I don't know what he thinks, although this person has not dealt with him, but looking at his arrangement, he is still a person who knows some art of war, although there are more Montenegrin people than us, but we have a strong camp, it is not so easy to break through our defense with this little force, if you want to break through the castle that has been prepared for a long time, it is almost impossible without ten times the strength." But I saw that Black Guess retreated after the first tentative attack, and I should understand this reason......"

"Will the Black Guess return to the Black Mountain Clan?" Aya asked again.

Liu Zhibang thought for a while and replied: "I don't think he will give up so easily, and his third brother was killed by us, so we told everyone to be vigilant, I believe that it won't be long before the second attack will start ......."

And on the other side, in the dense forest, Heichai was looking at Hei Duo lying on the ground with a sad face, Qi Kun checked the wounds on Hei Duo's body, got up and said to Hei Chai: "Patriarch Heichai, Captain Hei Duo has only one wound on his body, he was shot through the heart by a sharp arrow, but there is no arrow on his body, that can only mean that the arrow is very powerful, and it has passed through his body, according to his subordinates, there were still eighty steps away from the moat of the village at that time, according to this, the power of Liu Zhibang's bow and arrow far exceeds ours, It's no wonder that Heigo's archers were shot by the enemy without getting close to the moat......"
