Chapter 39: A Tentative Attack

The earthen wall of the Ba ethnic group was thickened, but due to the construction technology, a little distance was left between the foot of the wall and the moat, which was left for the construction workers to pass through at that time. www.biquge.info At this time, it was convenient for the enemy, and the Jiuxi warriors put the plank directly on it, which was quite stable, and even the huge minotaur could pass smoothly.

One of the fastest minotaur warriors rushed down the plank to the foot of the wall, braving a dense rain of arrows and smashing the giant wooden stick in his hand against the wall with all his strength.

In the previous times when they had attacked other tribes, no fence could withstand such a blow. When the giant wooden stick hit the wall, there was a loud noise, stirring up a cloud of dust, but the wall did not move, except for a shallow dent left on the wall that was impacted, it did not play any role, seeing this scene, the minotaur was also surprised, in the face of the Ba earthen wall it did not expect to be able to work at once, but saw that the effect was so small, or a full half second.

Time will not stop because it is stunned, the Ba archers on the wall take advantage of it is not covered, and shoot arrows at it frantically, such a close distance, even the Minotaur with super thick skin will inevitably suffer pain, in a short period of time, the upper body of the Minotaur is almost full of arrows, and the blood flowing out almost dyes its whole body red.

Seeing that he could not collapse the wall in a short time, and was aroused by his own blood and pain, this minotaur actually jumped up and climbed directly on the side of the wall, and actually wanted to climb directly onto the earthen wall! The earthen wall of the Ba tribe is 5 meters high, which is of course quite a high level for ordinary people, but it is indeed not impossible to climb for the Minotaur.

The minotaur used the strength of the shallow pit he had knocked out, jumped up and crushed the wooden wall stacks and climbed on the edge of the wall, and kept kicking on the wall with both feet, but he couldn't borrow his strength for a while, and hung on the edge of the wall and couldn't go up. The other minotaur, who was slightly behind, was right behind it at this time, and immediately followed, holding it at its feet. There was immediately a crazy killing god on the wall of the Ba tribe.

The minotaur who had climbed the city wall had lost his huge wooden stick in order to climb up, and for a moment there was no weapon, but it was already a mortal threat in itself.

I saw that it blocked its hands in front of its head, only exposed its two big horns, and rushed directly to a wooden arrow platform next to it, between it and the arrow platform, there were originally more than a dozen Ba hunters, but this minotaur had already aroused his ferocity, and he actually hit these dozen people directly. Together, the dozen or so people could not stop its tremendous force, and most of them were squeezed down the wall, and the first few people were even pushed against the horns of the bull and directly hit the arrow platform.

The impact was so powerful that it immediately collapsed the entire arrow platform, and several Ba warriors in front of it were even squeezed to the point that they spat blood and shattered their sternums. However, the impact did not hurt the minotaur a lot. Its upper body has long been densely shot by arrows, and the blood is flowing, relying on this frenzy to support until now, after this impact, it seems that it has finally exhausted its vitality.

It shook on the spot, but before it lost its combat effectiveness, it grabbed a broken piece of wood from the collapsed emcourse and used it as a weapon, and swept seven or eight archers off the wall. At this time, almost 100 people shot arrows at it under the wall, and its whole body was full of arrows. Finally it staggered and stumbled off the wall, leaving only its last breath to struggle, and several shooters rushed forward and fired several arrows almost at its head, finally leaving it motionless.

From the time the minotaur was shot madly, climbed the city wall, to the time it crashed into an arrow platform, and finally was shot to death, in just a dozen seconds, it directly killed and injured nearly thirty shooters, and attracted the attention of most of the people around. The repression under the wall was weakened all at once. And where the minotaur climbed up, the wooden arrow stack was squeezed out of a section, forming a gap, and several minotaurs next to him who had hit the wall to no avail also leaned towards this position.

Luo was not too far away from this gap at this time, and when he saw that a few minotaurs wanted to repeat their old tricks, he hurriedly turned the bodies of several people next to him, pointed to the gap and shouted hello.

"Replace the spears! Replace the spears and go up, don't let them come up again!"

The twenty or so archers who heard him immediately replaced their stone spears and rushed towards the gap, and when they reached this position, a minotaur stepped on the back of another companion and leaned half out of the gap.

The archers of the Jiuxi tribe on the other side of the moat under the wall kept shooting at the gap, trying to cover the minotaur, but these warriors also knew the consequences of letting the minotaur come up, and rushed up with a spear and a rain of arrows. The five or six people in the first row were immediately shot to the ground, relying on the time they had gained, several warriors behind them stabbed themselves with stone spears, and the minotaur who leaned out half of his body was propping his hands on the wall and preparing to climb up, there was no way to defend himself, and there was no way to dodge, he was stuck in the middle of four or five stone spears, and he couldn't help but let out a roar of pain.

Those warriors stabbed the minotaur directly with a stone spear, but the other party was really rough and thick-skinned, and the spearhead could not go deeper if it was halfway in, but several people worked together to finally push the painful monster down, and the minotaur fell from the wall, directly smashing the planks, and even the other minotaur fell into the moat.

With this moment of effort, the surrounding shooters finally resumed the suppression under the wall, and the other shooters carried a few planks to block the position of the gap, which was considered to be filled.

Oxen can only wade through the water and cannot swim, but the minotaur is not a cow after all, but a kind of intelligent creature, and two minotaurs who fell into the water swam ashore with bows and arrows on their backs. The other minotaurs under the wall did not try again, and retreated under the cover of the Jiuxi archers, and then the army of the Jiuxi tribe gradually retreated from the shooting, and waited until they slowly withdrew a hundred meters away, and the bow and arrow had no power at this distance, and the shooting finally stopped slowly.

The battlefield gradually quieted down, and the dead and wounded of the Jiuxi tribe had been carried away, leaving only dense arrows and bloodstains on the ground. Instead, the moans of the wounded were heard on the wall.

This battle can only be regarded as a tentative attack, and it only lasted for a short time, and the mutual fire of both sides was basically covered, and fewer were shot dead and not too many were wounded. Less than 10 people were killed and only 30 were wounded, and the losses of the Jiuxi tribe were about twice that number. But there were seven or eight people killed by the minotaur who went up the wall, and more than 20 people were swept off the wall and fell half to death, and the damage caused by it alone almost topped the entire Jiuxi army.

However, Luo reacted in time and did not let the second minotaur come up, otherwise he might have directly tried to turn into a general attack, and he was beaten down like this.

Luo looked at the Jiuxi army that stopped a hundred meters away and didn't move, but he breathed a sigh of relief.
