Chapter 126: Mountainside Attack and Defense (2)
"Boom. Boom. ”
Two crisp sounds sounded almost at the same time—Ding Li and Kuroko, who were sniping through the gap between the carriages, quickly turned around and hid behind the carriages. This was followed by the two of them skillfully changing their crossbow arrows. But Ding Li glanced to the side.
Although those Zhang's guards and dart masters are no longer flustered. But the faces of the people showed the joy of seeing hope. But Ding Li couldn't help frowning. The thieves outside the walls of the car were effectively blocked. But the real situation is not as easy as everyone thinks. Ding Li saw it clearly just now. The bandit army down the hillside had already begun to rush to the aid of their companions. In particular, it also includes a small team. But Ding Li felt an invisible pressure on the cavalry.
"Aimed. The first update is aimed at. Shoot at the point where the carriage is connected. Wang Qing brandished a war knife that he had just picked up from the ground. The other hand was holding the reins of a war horse. The whole body hides behind the war horse. Loudly ordered the group of men brought by Zhang Wu. Then he yelled at his scattered cavalry: "Run." Also run. Why don't you just run away? Gather. Charge towards both sides of the convoy. ”
A line of convoys. The flanks are indeed the weakest points of the defense. After all, the caravan's escort force is limited. So on both sides, there were only a few Zhang guards holding spears. In addition to this, there are several archers. The crossbow-wielding masters were mobilized to the middle of the convoy. Concentrated on the defense. Be the first to update
Meanwhile. Ding Li, who shot an arrow again, also noticed Wang Qing's men. Turn around and reload your bolts at the same time. shouted at Li Shan on the side: "Brother Li." I'll leave it to you here. Be sure to hold back the attack of the thief army. ”
Let's talk about it. didn't wait for Li Shan to respond. Throwing his head to the side towards Kuroko≡ he bent his waist and sped out towards the other side of the convoy. Throw an order to Kuroko: "Kuroko." Take a couple of brothers over there. Block the opposing cavalry. ”
"Understood. Brother Li, be careful. Kuroko nodded without hesitation. Glance at it. Immediately raised his feet and rushed out. At the same time, he reached out and patted the backs of several guards and dart masters along the way. Shouted to a few people: "Quick." Follow me. ”
The convoy was lined up on the hillside. And more than ten meters behind the crowd, it was downhill. This topography. Ding Li didn't dare to imagine what would happen to his side if the thief army broke through the car wall. All the way downhill. If you are chased by the cavalry of the thief army. The ending is simply unimaginable.
"Listen to my orders. Shoot that way. "Hide behind the shields of a few of his men. Zhang Wu, who had calmed down, soon found Li Shan, who was commanding behind the convoy. After hastily gathering a few archers. Whisper a whisper. He shouted in a deep voice: "Ready." Put. ”
"Li Darthead. Be careful. A look of shock flashed in the eyes of one of the dart masters who had just leaned out and fired crossbow arrows. Didn't even wait to pull the crossbow. With a loud shout, he took a step to the side. Li Shan, who also leaned out, bumped into it.
"Be careful." Li Shan, who found the danger, also subconsciously reached out to drag the dart master. But a carved feather arrow was still accurately inserted in the back of the dart master. The spurt of blood stained the white feathers at the end of the arrow a little red. With the dart master falling to the ground. A few drops of blood were scattered from the tail end of the quivering feathered arrow. In an instant, it blended with the dust on the ground.
"Wang Qi." Li Shan glared at the dart master on the ground with scarlet eyes. Roar. But the dart master Wang Qi was shot by a feather arrow in the back of the heart. Facing Li Shan's shout. Wang Qi only squirmed his lips a few times. The words that he wanted to say were drowned in blood gushing up his throat. Then follow the corner of the mouth. Rapid gushing. In addition to the despair and unwillingness in his eyes, there was a vague smile in the corner.
The official counterattack of the thieves began. It seems that Ding Li and Kuroko took several people to defend the sides of the convoy. Or maybe the thief army who was stunned just now reacted. Especially under the key counterattack of those archers led by Zhang Wu, who was protected by shield soldiers. The convoy was followed by a series of casualties. And those Zhang guards who were originally holding spears. I had to hurry to pick up the longbow and crossbow that my companion had thrown on the ground. Refill the position and block the thieves outside the car wall.
Side of the convoy. Seeing that more than 20 cavalry gathered together, they were speeding up their horses and climbing the hill to charge. The few people who are guarding here are already a little confused. Several archers who had the advantage of distance also released only two arrows symbolically. Almost no damage to the thieves.
Looked at. A few guys hiding behind the carriage with spears in their hands were even more weak-hearted. The idea of retreat has even been hatched. suddenly saw Ding Li arrive with a few people. There were also three dart masters with short crossbows.
"Shoot the horse. Big goal. Let them come down first. Across the carriage. They weren't that easy to get into. "On the way over. Ding Li had already noticed the thief cavalry climbing the slope. Also see the ineffective counterattack of several archers here. And Ding Li didn't blame a few people. Just explain it to a few people in a flat tone. Then he turned his head and shouted at the few people who came to help with him: "Release. . . ”
The voice did not fall. Ding Li turned around suddenly. The Qin crossbow at the flat end in his hand instantly aimed at a thief cavalry who was rushing to the front. The corners of his eyes twitched slightly. Lisso pulled the trigger. And the rest of the people moved a little slower, albeit a little slower. But he still followed Ding Li's movements and launched a counterattack.
A war horse with a huge body is definitely a good target at a distance of thirty or forty paces. As long as you can shoot like Ding Li. The hit rate can be said to be almost 100 percent. And it seems to be due to the appearance of Ding Li. Let the Zhang guards with short bows suddenly come to confidence. Although not as accurate as the crossbow arrows in the hands of Ding Li and the dart masters. But the feathered arrows still pierced a few horses.
Six men's mounts were wounded. One of them was hit by two arrows. And at that time, four mounts went into a rage and overturned the cavalry on horseback. Immediately afterwards, the unfortunate ghosts were trampled by the iron hooves of the mounts under the crotch of their companions who followed them. Even if he didn't die on the spot. also ended up with a broken arm and a broken leg.
"Idiot. Dodge. A thief soldier who had just stepped on his companion on the ground on his horse turned his head and roared angrily. It's not that he's deliberately insulting his companions. It's just that he is even more angry in his heart that his companion died under his iron hooves. Only when he turned his head again. What caught my eye was a few feathered arrows that suddenly rose into the air again after the convoy. Although the number is extremely small. But there is still a certain threat to them. Especially one of them. Obviously, the target is himself. Immediately, he quickly turned the horse's head away. But I didn't expect that the companions on the side had no intention of dodging at all. Eyes full of horror. He ran straight into his companion's horse.
"Straight thief." The scolding isn't over yet. The thieves, who didn't have time to contain the momentum, flew out under the collision of the war horses. And the thief who was hit was also dangling on horseback. But it was only by dragging the reins that he did not fall off the horse. The former, on the other hand, is planted headlong uphill. The head was hit with a lot of meat. All that was left was the clear but terrifying sound of horses' hooves.
"Bang."
Nothing happens. A thief is also unable to control his mount in time. The galloping war horse crashed straight into the unlucky ghost who had not yet recovered from his nerves. Shocked and surprised. Behind the convoy in front of them, there were several intermingled crisp sounds. Several crossbow arrows flew out one after another. One of them flashed cold—and in an instant, it plunged headlong into the chest of the thief. Although there is a layer of armor for self-defense. But the helpless thing is that the workmanship is extremely poor. Even he could clearly hear the sound of crossbow arrows tearing through his armor. This was followed by a chill in the chest. The body trembled at the same time. The whole person left the horse. Fly out upside down.
"Kill." Just a short distance. More than ten horsemen fell in succession. The lucky ones, who didn't care about the casualties of their companions, could only roar angrily. Bloodshot eyes stared at the crossbowmen behind the convoy. Hold the rifle in your hand tightly. Roaring in anger, he tried to knock over the carriage that stood in his way.
"Whoosh."
A scene that everyone didn't expect happened next. A spear flew out from behind the convoy. Without any suspense, he shot through the body of one of the thieves who rushed in front of him. Only the uncontrolled horse was left and crashed headlong into the carriage in front of him.
"Hold on." Ding Li, who threw out his spear, shouted at everyone. picked up a Tang knife and suddenly got up. Flick your legs hard. The whole person jumped into the carriage. There was no pause in the feet. A little bit of a whole person jumped out. Plunge down on a cavalryman with a spear ready to ram the carriage. The Tang knife in his hand was quickly swung out. In a blink of an eye. A bewitching blood light flew up. A head, still wide-eyed, flew out.
Rush to the wall of the car. The number of thieves has been reduced by nearly half. It is precisely because of this Ding Li that he does not have to worry about being in the midst of the enemy's continuous war horse charges. After killing one person. Ding Li curled up and knocked the headless corpse on horseback out of the air. One hand tugged at the reins of the warhorse. While strangling the war horse, he took advantage of the situation to stabilize his body. But before it landed. The Tang knife in his hand swung out with a backhand at an incredible angle. The shining blade approached a cavalryman with a spear next to him.
"Poof."
The enraged cavalryman was ready to ram the wall. Suddenly, I saw a person flying out of the car wall. What was even more shocking was that the companion's head suddenly fell off. And immediately after. In addition to being shocked, I felt a chill in the arm holding the spear. Suddenly, it felt as if something was missing. Subconsciously turn your head to look. But it was a heart-piercing pain that instantly spread throughout the body. Especially when he found that the arm that was still holding the spear had left his body. Immediately, he raised his head and let out an unusually miserable wail.
"Ahh
The screams were like sharp knives. Fiercely, but extremely easily, tearing everything around him apart. Cut down on the body. Pierce the eardrum. The painful feeling was instantly contagious. It makes people suddenly shake suddenly. I got goosebumps all over my body. The heart is pounding.
