"Kill them and bulldoze them!" Facing the direction of the ice wall, several Youzhou generals were furious. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info81 didn't wait to ask Han Kuangmei for instructions, so he led his subordinates and rushed straight up.

An army of 16,000 attacked a small fortress garrisoned by less than 1,000 people, and the defenders dared to take the initiative to provoke. If you don't let it go down, where will the faces of the soldiers in Youzhou go?

However, reality quickly brought their heads back to coolness.

Ice, endless stretches of ice, and snow that had been trampled hard, spread from the foot of the ice-made walls and down the slopes. Nearly half of the hillside, where you can settle down, is covered with a layer of slippery and hard shell. Especially close to the ice wall, the last hundred and fifty paces are simply a complete ice mirror. If you run straight up without adequate preparation, you will definitely be broken in the shortest possible time!

"Straight lady thief, if there is a kind, you will kill and die!" "Come and ...... to die" "Die ......"

Between the mountains, the echo lingers, refusing to disperse. On the ice wall, the soldiers of the two families who had just been instigated by Hu Yancong and shouted and shouted did not suddenly realize what they were shouting until this moment. One by one, they turned their heads to look at Lao Buxiu, their mouths were open, and they couldn't cry or laugh.

"Shout, keep shouting!" Hu Yancong didn't care about the big guy's gaze, waved his arms, and continued to mobilize loudly. "We guys, no matter how bluffing, don't move as much as those guys down there. Just punctured their cowhide directly! Let them have a kind of kill now and fight for life and death, and if they don't dare to come, they won't have a seed!"

"Straight Niang Thief, if there is a kind, you will kill and die!" "Straight Niang Thief, if there is a kind, you will kill and die!" "Come and ...... and be killed" "Suffer ...... death" Tao Dachun and others, who were originally going to have a good life theory with Hu Yancong, suddenly realized. Laughing again, he tore his throat and repeated the provocative words over and over again.

The number of opponents is less than one-tenth of the opponent, and it is certainly difficult to overwhelm the opponent in terms of momentum. Therefore, it is the best choice to make use of strengths and avoid weaknesses. Take advantage of the terrain to give the Youzhou army below a problem. If the Youzhou army rashly stepped on the ice and attacked, it would definitely suffer a big loss. If the Youzhou army chooses to act cautiously, it means that the movement they deliberately tossed out before is purely a big pig urine bubble, and they should not be poked hard at all.

"Straight mother thief, find the dead grandfather and it will be for you!" The hearts of the Youzhou soldiers who had stopped halfway up the mountain were once again aroused by the raging fire, roared angrily, and continued to move forward.

After only a dozen steps, the soles of my shoes became wetter and more slippery because they were covered with ice and snow foam...... , fell all over the hillside of the rolling gourd.

However, this group of Youzhou soldiers really had a brute strength, and they had all been bruised and swollen, but they still got up from the ground, supported each other, and continued to climb forward. The spears and knives in his hands were all used as ice picks, chiseled all over the mountains and fields, and there was a sonorous sound.

"Dangdang, Dangdang, Dangdang......" A rapid gong sounded suddenly sounded from the mountain road below, stopping the adventure of the soldiers in Youzhou. However, Han Kuangmei himself had already arrived, and felt that there were hundreds of loyal minions who were ready to fight to the death, so he decisively ordered Mingjin, thus avoiding a meaningless sacrifice.

"This kid has not lived up to his noble bloodline!" First sent a few personal soldiers with their own arrows to pull back the minions on the hillside, Han Kuangmei immediately began to carefully observe the defense facilities on the opposite side. The more I look at it, the more I feel that Zheng Ziming is a respectable opponent, and Yelu Chi Dog and Ma Yanxu and others are really not unjust when they lose to this person.

"Marshal, the thieves have insulted me too much, if I don't teach him a lesson, I'm afraid it will damage the morale of our army!" Seeing Han Kuangmei constantly nodding at the ice wall, Han Zhuo, who was privately hired by Ma Yanxu to join the army, stepped forward and tentatively proposed.

His friend and proprietor Ma Yanxu's ambition was unrewarded, and he lost an arm first, and it was impossible to lead an army alone in this life. And the ambition in his heart can't be lost. So without waiting for Ma Yanxu's injury to stabilize, he took the initiative to ask Ying again and joined Han Kuangmei's shogunate.

Although Han Kuangmei hated Han Zhuo and Ma Yanxu in her heart, she deliberately abandoned her nephew to death. For the sake of his grandfather, Han Yanhui, who was a powerful minister of the court, Lu Guogong, and the prime minister of Nanfu, he didn't dare to make things too difficult with him. Therefore, after hearing Han Zhuo's advice, after a little consideration, he nodded slightly, "This is very true, if you don't give the thieves a little color, they still think that they are invincible in the world!

"Yes!" Han Chongwei, the head of the pro-soldiers, agreed, stepped forward to take the order flag, and trotted along the mountain road to the end of the entire army. After a short time, Han Kuangmei's most relied on team was brought under the handsome banner.

This team consisted of thirty archers with white tail feathers on their hats, and the ethnic groups were divided into Han, Xi, Mo, Khitan, and Jurchen, all of whom had different appearances and spoke in a southern and northern tone. But in the hands of these thirty soldiers, they all held sandalwood bows made by famous craftsmen of the Liao State. The pull of each bow is at least two stones. The arm is seven feet long, the string is three points thick, and the copper-clad at the bow is polished to a shiny light. (Note 1)

Archers in this kind of costume, whether they are strong or accurate, are one in a thousand. And every year, it must be tested by the hands of the senior officials at the above level, and those who are qualified are rewarded, and those who have regressed are directly eliminated from the team, and the vacant places are replaced by rising stars. The strictness of the screening criteria is second to none in the entire Liao country. However, those who can pass the assessment and stay will be awarded the position of Condor Shooter, and the ordinary supply is equivalent to the head of the soldiers, and the standard of sharing the spoils behind the enemy is not worse than the head of the capital.

Therefore, the combat effectiveness of one condor shooter is often more than ten soldiers. Especially in long-distance battles, as long as there is enough bow and arrow, the three condor archers combined are enough to suppress the hundreds of people on the opposite side so that they can't raise their heads.

The number is scarce, the selection is strict, the burden of support is heavy, and the power is unparalleled in the world. Therefore, until the critical moment, the main general of the army will not be used easily. And as long as it is used, it will often turn the situation on the battlefield in an instant.

Although today's war is far from a critical moment, it involves the face of the entire army. Therefore, Han Kuangmei didn't want to hide his secrets anymore, and as soon as the condor archers arrived, he immediately pointed to the dazzling ice wall on the top of the mountain and ordered: "Zhao Erde, Ba Ximi, Xiao Chuxiong, the three of you each take a team of brothers, find a way to get up and kill the enemy's majesty!"

"Yes!" the three leading condor archers bowed and saluted, and quickly divided their brothers into three strands. Each looking for a different place to stay, jumping towards the ice wall. A team, flexible like wild wolves hunting for food.

"Mingjin, order the brothers on the hillside to disperse the formation, withdraw as chaotically as possible, and interfere with the judgment of the enemy army!" Seeing the condor shooters leave, Han Kuangmei thought about it and ordered in a deep voice.

As a veteran of a hundred battles, he never expected dozens of condor archers to be able to directly defeat the enemy army behind the fortified city. What he needs is that the actions of the Condor Shooters can catch the opponent by surprise, and then seriously weaken the opponent's morale. Of course, it would be even happier if any of the condor archers were lucky enough to shoot the enemy general on the spot. As the saying goes: the general is the courage of the three armies. The villagers who have lost their backbone, no matter how strict their training is, will quickly fall apart.

"Yes!" the soldiers agreed to deliver the order. After a while, the low sound of the gong sounded again, "Dangdang, Dangdang, Dangdang, Dangdang, Dangdang...... like an evening bell in a broken temple, constantly destroying people's ears.

When the group of Youzhou soldiers who were ordered to retreat on the hillside heard this, they immediately dispersed in formation under the greeting of the ten generals and the capitalists. Pretending that morale had been severely hit, one cluster in the east and one cluster in the west, stumbling down. Although there were only a few hundred people, the figures covered the small half of the hillside. And from time to time he made some extremely embarrassing falling movements, which caused laughter on the ice wall.

"Hahaha, why don't you dare to come up. It's not planted, grandpa is still waiting for you!"

"Let's go, let's go!Haha, two pennies to buy a mud teapot, the ability is all in the mouth!hahaha, hahaha......"

On the ice wall, Hu Yancong and the others became more and more proud, provocative, shouting, and humiliating, if it weren't for the presence of Tao Sanchun, a female general, I really wanted to untie my trouser belt and sprinkle a bubble outside the city. No one noticed that the danger was already unknowingly approaching them.

Zhao Erde, who had made a detour from the right side of the battlefield, was the first to come within 200 steps of the ice wall. The nine condor archers under his command, with their bodies bent and scattered into a fan shape, followed closely behind by the cover of rocks and dead trees. The seven-foot-long horned bow was quietly removed by the crowd and rested across the knees. The barbed wolftooth arrows were also quickly taken out of the quiver and inserted one after another into the ice crevice three feet in front of him.

"Ready—" Zhao Rd summoned in a low voice, then took a deep breath and bent down quickly. The left hand pushed forward, the back hand hooked a wolf's tooth arrow and quickly backbanded, and with the inertia of the waist rod to re-straighten, both arms forcefully pulled the corner bow into a full circle.

"Put!" With the prediction of his gaze before bending down, he shot the first arrow of the day towards a tall black strong man in the ice city. Then without looking, he leaned down again, hooked the arrow, carried his strength, straightened his waist, and shot the second wolf tooth towards the same position before.

"Whoosh-" "Whoosh-" "Whoosh-" More than a dozen cold lights suddenly lit up from two hundred paces away from the ice wall. Like lightning, it rushed straight to Hu Yancong and the brothers around him. When Hu Yancong and the others wanted to dodge after hearing the sound of the feather arrow breaking through the air, where would they still have time? They could only shrink their bodies downward by instinct, hoping to avoid the vital point, so as not to be shot by cold arrows on the spot!

"Phew!" At the last moment, a shield flew from the lower left, blocking the three feathered arrows. The fourth feathered arrow rushed down from mid-air, hitting the head of a green forest hero. The sharp wolf fangs pierced the frontal bone, pierced the skull, and spat out a blush from the edge of the felt hat. The unlucky man didn't even have time to snort, and fell on his back.

The fifth, sixth, and seventh wolf's tooth arrows fell, bringing up three thick blood mist. The eighth and ninth wolf's tooth arrows landed slightly lower and hit the ice-forged battlements, splashing two thick clouds of white smoke. The arrow that chiseled out the battlements was not in decline, and it was pushed inward by inertia for a full three inches before finally stopping. The thick shaft of the arrow, with its black tail feathers, swayed outside the battlement.

"Whoosh-" "Whoosh-" "Whoosh-" "Whoosh-" "Whoosh-" "Whoosh-" "Whoosh-" "Whoosh-" The center of the battlefield was on the left, and on the left side of the battlefield, each of them was about 200 steps away from the ice city, and several cold lights also rose in a row. More arrows were fired at the city's head from an unexpected distance. Bring up more blood mist, and create more unsightly corpses.

Note 1: According to the unearthed Yuan Dynasty longbow, the bow length is 138, the upper and lower bow arm lengths are 33, the bow tip length is 34, and the bow bow length is 18. The bow body is carbonized with alkaline earth solution, so it is dark red, commonly known as "moistening sheep blood".
