Chapter 614: Three Strikes

At this time, the gold juice in Xu Sheng's hands was exhausted, so he could only take the soldiers and quietly wait for the Black Wind Thieves who landed in the city. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Soon, a steady stream of Black Wind Thieves climbed up from the top of the ladder.

"Woohoo, hoop .......!" Tian Duyan gasped, and the only right eye left appeared in front of Xu Sheng's eyes full of ecstasy.

Before, Lu Ming gave an order, and the first person to enter the city was directly rewarded with a thousand gold, and the official was promoted to three levels. (The thousand gold here is not a thousand gold coins, but a thousand silver coins.) )

As soon as he thought that he was going to receive these rewards, Tian Duyan's body was instantly full of strength, and then, he jumped hard, and the long knife in his right hand was raised directly........

"Poof!", Xu Sheng withdrew his spear with an indifferent face.

As for Tian Duyan, at this time, he had already fallen on the city wall, and there was still a trace of excitement left in the right eye of only one left.

Soon, all that was left in this right eye was coldness and death!

"Attack!" Xu Sheng ordered calmly.

Hearing Xu Sheng's order, a group of recruits who had just been recruited from Black Sand City stepped forward in an orderly manner, moved some of the rejected horses that had already been visited on the inside of the city wall, and placed them on the battlement wall at the cloud ladder.

In order to strengthen the blocking force and lethality, the auxiliaries under the command of the officers of the team are all disposing of the rejection horses.

After the auxiliaries set up their horses to reject the horses, they quickly left this section of the city wall, their task here was completed, and the next battle was handed over to Xu Sheng, these 'veterans'.

Behind or next to these few horses on the city wall, at this time, more than 100 pikemen wearing two layers of fine armor were holding steel spears, staring at the ladder not far in front of them, these hundreds of people were divided into five groups, each standing at a city wall, and each group was led by the small banner in the hundred households to fight.

In the military discussion discussed by Lin Ze and the others in advance, once the enemy soldiers landed in the city, it was a good opportunity to kill and injure them in large numbers, and at the same time, it could also exercise the hand-to-hand combat ability of their own soldiers.

Only in the life-and-death struggle will your recruits grow up quickly, and become elite soldiers in a hundred battles at the fastest speed!

Of course, Lin Ze is not the kind of cold-blooded general who ignores the lives of soldiers in order to train recruits, in order to reduce casualties, Lin Ze strictly stipulates that once he encounters most of the Black Wind Thieves, or encounters a large number of quasi-martial artists, the army composed of warriors is best to use archery teams or special martial arts troops to solve these people.

The area above the walls is limited, and the walls on both sides are very high, so if you want to fight your way out, you can only fight hand-to-hand on the walls, so that the archers can exert their maximum power.

They can shoot from a distance with the bow and arrow in their hands, and after the Black Wind Thief soldiers, quasi-warriors, and warriors are exhausted by the archers' shooting, or injured, the remaining pikemen who have long been prepared directly rush forward to assassinate them, so that they can easily eliminate these threatening Black Wind Thieves quasi-warriors and warriors.

In the army fighting at the head of the city, for every thousand households, Lin Ze set up an archer army, which was not a small number, as many as three hundred, and also attacked according to the method of three stages.

Triple Strike: The triple strike is an arquebus tactic that emerged in the 16th century to compensate for the slow firing speed of muskets when they could not fire continuously.

At that time, although the arquebus was more powerful than the bow and crossbow, after the musket was fired, it had to go through the gunpowder, put in the lead pellet (at that time, the real bullet did not come out, and some countries even used stones everywhere), draw out the through strip from under the barrel, ram the lead shot and gunpowder, light the arquebus to aim at the enemy, and occasionally clean the gun hole after shooting, (if you use a flintlock pistol, in addition to aiming, you can almost save this time), so it takes about a minute to put a shot, (the flintlock pistol is half a minute, and the skilled one only needs about 15 seconds, and it can be used in rainy days) and the enemy who fights at close range after shooting will charge (especially the cavalry) , and the musketeers will suffer a lot of losses.

Therefore, some countries have come up with a method of warfare, the musket team is divided into three rows, the first row shoots after the second row shoots, the second row fires when the first row shoots, the first row and the third row exchange positions, and then fill the rear with gunpowder, etc., the second row shoots after the second row shoots, the second row exchanges positions with the first row at the beginning, replenishes ammunition, and the third row shoots after the first row shoots, so that the interval time is greatly shortened.

Although the three-stage strike was invented with the advent of the arquebus, it was also very effective in archery teams.

The three-stage attack allows these archers to maintain a steady stream of firepower, and then exerts the power of the archers to the extreme.

No, now the Black Wind Thief has tasted the power of the three-stage attack.

The Black Wind Thief Archer troops here had just fired a round of attacks, and before they could reload their bows and arrows, they were greeted with a steady stream of bow and arrow shots.

"Woo Woo .......!" Countless black arrows rained down on them.

Many of the Black Wind Bandit's archers had never seen any three-stage strikes at all, so they still fought according to their previous training and experience.

After a round of bows and arrows had been fired, the Black Wind Bandit archers all stood up, ready to launch their attack.

However, as soon as these Black Wind Thief archers stood up, a black rain of arrows appeared in front of them.

"Puff puff puff .......!" countless arrows struck the bodies of these Black Wind Thief archers in disbelief.

"Ahhh.......h

This was this round of three-stage attack, and the Black Wind Bandit's archer troops lost nearly five hundred people, and the damage they caused was only twenty or thirty people.

Seeing that the casualties of the two were so large, Lin Ze above the city gate tower nodded, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

With this three-stage attack method, the shortcomings of his small number have been greatly compensated, at least, he no longer has to worry about the threat of a large number of archers of the Black Wind Thief, and he has enough strength on his side to confront the large number of archers of the Black Wind Thief.

.................................

At this time, the 700th team has begun to fight with the Black Wind Bandit soldiers who have landed in the city, except for leaving a small team of pikemen to protect the archer troops behind them and continue to shoot at the city on horseback, the rest of the pikemen are led by the small flag leader in the team, constantly killing the Black Wind Thieves who have landed in the city.

The upper part of the city wall here at the east gate of Heisha City is about forty or fifty meters wide, and even if these rejection horses are placed at the battlements, they can still loosely accommodate these teams behind and around the rejection horses.

When Qi Yuan's side started to engage the battle, the hundredth household team, which was only a hundred meters away from Qi Yuan, was also about to engage in battle.

Like the hundred households led by Qi Yuan, the hundred households here are also a combination of pikemen and archers, all the pikemen are divided into five teams, all of them have the small flags in the hundred households under the unified command, and the general flags in the five small flags are under the unified command of Zhou Ming of the hundred households, beside him, there are five guards and two flag bearers, and three drummers, they are also nervous at this time, standing beside them with swords.

"Click. Click........!"

Listening to the sound of climbing from outside the city wall, the sergeants of the hundredth household were all pursed their mouths, their chests rising and falling rapidly, and they looked nervously at the movement on the other side of the ladder.

Finally, a few steps closer to the first horse-faced city wall on the left, at the mouth of the ladder, there appeared a Black Wind Thief holding a round shield and a half-moon axe in his right hand, with a turban depicting a skeleton on his head, this skeleton was blood-red, and there were some blood stains in his eyes, so it looked a little terrifying from a distance.

The face was full of horizontal flesh, full of beard, and there were several deep scars on the right side of the face.

Judging by the color of the armor on his body and the number of stars on his collar, it turned out to be a general flag in the Black Wind Thieves.

As soon as he appeared at the head of the city, he did not look inside, but protected himself with a round shield to prevent the enemies in the city from being killed with bows and arrows.

Then he leaped to the top of the wall, and with a short axe in his right hand, he jumped down from the top of the city with a loud shout, and slew at the enemy in front of him.

In the past, this general banner always killed the city in this dress, the bloody skull turban on his forehead, coupled with the beard and scar on his face, this appearance can scare off many enemies in the city, this method, he has tried it many times before.

This Black Wind Thief's general banner has this confidence in his heart, as long as he jumps on the city head, he can open a city head foothold for the team behind.

However, what he didn't expect was that there were several rejection horses under the city wall where the ladder was located, horizontal and vertical, and the sharp iron thorns were shining with cold light.

In an instant, multiple sharp iron thorns pierced deep into his body.

"Ah.......h

However, the three-layer armor he was wearing directly shattered the idea of this general flag wanting to escape.

Before, this Black Wind Thief was eager to wear four or five layers of armor to protect himself, but now, he was eager to wear cloth clothes, so that he would not be unable to get off after being rejected from being hit by a spur because of the heavy armor on his body........................
