Chapter 33: The Fierce Battle (Part II)

With his own eyes that could almost kill, he glared fiercely at the tribal soldiers in front of him. The barbarian general's face full of despair also showed a trace of unwillingness from the heart.

"Without a shield, my brave barbarian soldiers will be crushed by cowardly Terran archers under this low earthen wall as shrunken turtles?"

Ye Qing had no experience in fighting head-on with the barbarian army, although other officers such as Li Xin had fought with the barbarian army, they were all pressed and beaten by the barbarians, and they had never encountered the opportunity to fight against the barbarian cavalry today.

Seeing that the barbarian cavalry had given up the war horses they relied on and hid under the earthen wall as a shrinking turtle, the long-range attack weapon that Ye Jun relied on was no longer able to cause damage to the barbarian soldiers hiding behind the earthen wall.

If the barbarians on the front line of the earthen wall were cunning enough to rely directly on the earthen wall to defend and wait for the large troops behind, then even if the first line of defense was completely useless, many of the arrangements Ye Qing had made before would become meaningless.

As a last resort, Ye Qing then ordered the elite troops in the army to launch a white-knuckle battle against the barbarian cavalry in front of him through a hidden trench, directly eliminating the barbarian vanguard on the position.

The Scouts are the elite of the entire army, and they have fought with the barbarians at a quiet distance, and they have the experience to quickly destroy the enemy and recapture the first line of defense.

Under the cover of the green crossbowmen, more than 200 scouts plus more than 100 elite pikemen, under the leadership of captain Wang Feng, each person had a large shield on his head, directly covering the traffic trench that was no more than two feet wide. Under the cover of these large shields, with spears in hand, he bent over and slowly touched the front-line position.

"Terran, the Terran army has touched it. ”

The scouts had only traveled about half the way when a sharp-eyed barbarian spotted them and alerted the barbarian generals.

"Warriors, here's our chance for revenge......"

"Everyone immediately prepared and gathered at the exit of the trench. As soon as the Terrans come within range of the horse's bow, shoot them with their bows and arrows, and be prepared to engage them in close combat. ”

One hundred and twenty steps...... One hundred steps...... Eighty steps......

Along the communication trench, the snake-like scouts had just entered the range of the horse's bow when a loud roar rang out among the barbarians.

"Warriors, prepare your bows and arrows, and ...... your arrows"

"Whoosh ......" A series of slight whistles sounded on the front line of the earthen wall, and more than 100 arrows quickly flew into the sky.

After reaching the highest point of the flight trajectory, the arrow slid rapidly under the gravity of the iron scissors, and smashed towards the ground target at an increasing speed.

If you are defenseless, you will definitely be pierced into a hedgehog by these arrows.

However, under the cover of the thick shield, the whizzing arrows did not penetrate the shield and shoot into the tight communication trenches covered by the shield, except for a dull crash on the surface of the shield.

However, just as the barbarians began to shoot arrows, the green crossbowmen, who had been ready for a long time, began to carry out intensive attacks, and a thousand powerful crossbows and arrows shot out like lightning with the sound of friction against the air.

On the barbarian side, in order to ensure the effectiveness of their shooting, the soldiers began to gather together unconsciously, instead of standing on the front line of the earthen wall in a scattered manner, which provided some convenience for the Ye army's attack.

Seeing a dense rain of arrows coming, the barbarian soldiers gathered together tried their best to hide under the earthen wall, hoping to avoid the blow of the rain of arrows, but it was all in vain.

"Puff....puff...."

A series of dull sounds of flesh entering the flesh sounded on the battlefield, and dozens of barbarian soldiers who couldn't dodge were directly hit by the looting and fell to the ground.

The barbarian vanguard force, which was already small in number, was greatly reduced again, and now there are only more than a hundred soldiers.

The barbarian striker, who suffered heavy losses again, could only be a turtle with a face full of unwillingness.

The only difference was that the horse bow held in the hands of the barbarians had been abandoned by them, and replaced by various cold weapons for close combat. After successive losses, the barbarian decides to hide behind the earthen wall and wait for his work...#$@chaptertextend@$#

After the sound of dense footsteps began to sound in the trench behind the earthen wall, the faces of the barbarian soldiers who clenched their weapons quickly showed bloodthirsty expressions.

As if they had agreed, he raised his weapon, crossed the earthen wall in a vigorous posture, jumped down the trench, and rushed towards the spear array with a shout of killing that increased his deterrent.

"Kill..."

After the dozen or so barbarian soldiers at the head actually appeared in front of the pikeman, they were faced with a pair of hideous faces, and their handles were raised high, and in the sunlight, they emitted a cold light and maces. Many pikemen who had not yet formally fought with the barbarian army showed a trace of panic on their faces, and subconsciously raised their right feet, wanting to take a step back.

However, their idea did not come to fruition.

Because, the walls of the trenches, which could not move at all, were clinging to their backs, blocking their retreat.

There is no way back, and in the face of the murderous barbarian soldiers, the only thing the pikemen can do is fight to the death.

At this moment, Captain Wang Feng's murderous order suddenly reached their ears, making their panicked hearts instantly find sustenance...

"All of them have, take a step forward and thrust...... Kill..."

The scouts were worthy of being the elite of the whole army, and although there were brief mood swings, they immediately adjusted, and set a good example for the other hundred pikemen, stabilizing the morale of the army.

"Kill...."

At the moment when the shouts of killing sounded, more than 300 spearmen held the arms of the spears, as if they had suddenly been injected with the power of a thousand catties. No matter how hideous the barbarian soldiers who rushed towards him in front of him, he just stabbed forward violently according to his usual training....

"Poof... Poof... Puff ......" The sound of a string of spears entering the flesh sounded on the battlefield, and the barbarian soldiers who had just jumped off the trench on the opposite side and had not had time to raise their weapons were all pierced through the body by the spears.

"Put away the gun, back away..."

After another series of "poof...... sounds sounded on the battlefield, a large stream of blood quickly poured out of the blood hole on the barbarian soldier's body like a fountain. The barbarian soldiers, who suddenly lost their strength and support, immediately fell to the ground covered in blood and turned into corpses.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of warriors were gone, and in front of everyone, the Terrans, who had always been known for their cowardice, did not lose a single person. Still flat-ended with the spear in his hand, he looked at himself with a hot face, without the slightest intention of retreating.

In the face of this change, the murderous aura that had just been aroused on the faces of the subsequent barbarian soldiers quickly disappeared and was replaced by a trace of panic from the heart.

As the old saying goes, everyone is afraid of death...

Knowing that jumping off the trench is to send him to death, if he continues to jump off the trench, it is not bravery, it is stupidity.

So, when the spear battalion was full of blood, the side that was more brave than them was shown. The remaining barbarian soldiers were frightened, ignoring the constant roars of the officers around them, and turned and jumped off the earthen wall, trying to find their horses and retreat.
