Chapter 208: The Battle of Black Wind Mountain (5)

Just when Ghost Li and the red-haired ghost respectively led the crowd to break through the bed crossbow in front of them in a scattered formation, a silver light suddenly flashed in front of them, which looked extremely gorgeous under the moonlight, but the sound of breaking the sky that followed made Ghost Li tremble, and hurriedly leaned over the horse again, even the mace in his hand was backhanded behind his back, and the other hand was tightly wrapped around the horse's neck, as if he was afraid of being thrown off the horse's back.

In the blink of an eye, the sound of breaking the air turned into various sounds, including the neighing and howling of horses, the miserable howls of horse thieves with arrows, and the shouts of fear, as well as the reprimanding orders of big and small leaders, including Li Ghost and the red-haired ghost.

"Don't stop, rush quickly!" Ghost Li, who came back to his senses, had a hideous face, a pair of extremely bloodshot eyes full of hatred and anger, and his feet were even more crazy and slammed the horses, readjusting the frightened Black Wind Horse under his crotch, and rushed forward again.

"Don't stop, rush! Rush over and you'll survive! The red-haired ghost also reminded the horse thieves around him loudly at the top of his voice, and while shouting hard, he pulled the injury on his left shoulder, but the red-haired ghost frowned fiercely, just squinted his eyes and swept the crossbow arrow nailed to his left shoulder, and when he turned his head to look ahead, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and he hung the war knife in his hand on the saddle, and pulled out the crossbow arrow on his shoulder without hesitation, but he put the crossbow arrow in his mouth, clenched his teeth, endured the sharp pain from his shoulder, and pulled out the war knife again, and his legs clamped the horse's belly.

The short crossbow salvo of the two teams of the Southern Navy, even if the horse thieves of the Black Wind Mountain have scattered their formation, but there are not a few people who fall from the arrows, not to mention, behind the two teams of crossbowmen, in the blink of an eye, a screen rises from the ground, and the soldiers of the two teams of the Southern Navy shoot hundreds of eagle feather arrows into the air at the same time, and the screen rolls up a moonlight wave in the night, and rushes to the front.

In the face of the sudden overwhelming feather arrows, the horse thieves of Black Wind Mountain had no time to panic, but in the subconscious panic, they turned their mounts and fled around, no one was willing to continue to obey the order to impact the bed crossbow, and no one would believe the order just now, although Ghost Li and the red-haired ghost were right, they could survive by rushing over, but in this situation, who could rush over?

The salvo of crossbow arrows is full of feather arrows, and there is far more than that, the bed crossbow that starts the battle first, the iron crossbow salvo that will launch the second wave of attack at any time, and maybe even some potential dangers that the horse thieves of the Black Wind Mountain dare not imagine, especially the unusually quiet surroundings, and there seem to be countless killing opportunities hidden in the darkness.

Behind the bed crossbow, Xu Hong, who was standing on the command platform of the donkey cart, finally got the news from the heralds one after another in anxious waiting, the bed crossbow had been prepared, and the creaking sound of the winch charging had completely disappeared.

"Put!"

Xu Hong, who couldn't wait, finally waved the two arms that had been held high for a while, and even the arms that had already felt extremely heavy waved again, with the waving of the two command flags, the herald soldier who had always stayed in Xu Hong's hand behind each bed crossbow also hurriedly turned around, and the red command flag in his hand waved down towards the manipulator, repeating the order from Xu Hong loudly.

"Put! Put.. ”

For the crossbowmen who operate the bed crossbow, although the number of times the bed crossbow is fired, but the feeling of really manipulating the bed crossbow to shoot the iron crossbow to shoot the enemy on the battlefield is completely different from the usual training, especially at the moment when the iron crossbow is launched, the nerves of the whole person will be tense, both hands are tightly buckled on the bed crossbow, and the eyes are even more closely staring at the iron crossbow that flies out, even if it can't catch up with the speed of the iron crossbow at all, but often you will clearly see whether the bed crossbow you shoot has sent the enemy off the horse.

"Boom! Boom! Boom.. ”

The deafening sound of the bed crossbow sent the iron crossbows into the battlefield, knocking the predetermined targets directly off the horseback, but as if they did not encounter any resistance at all, they passed through the target's body in the blink of an eye at a rapid speed, and the blood-stained arrows continued to sharpen and crashed directly into the next target.

For crossbow arrows or feather arrows, even if they are a large salvo, their lethality will be inferior to that of bed crossbows, not only in the proportion of real enemy to mortal enemies, but also in the deterrence and oppression generated by the whistling sound of the iron crossbow, far exceeding the former.

The dull whistling of the crossbow was like a death call from hell.

I don't know when it has been slightly hazy under the moonlight, the horse thieves in the Black Wind Cottage are more like a flock of frightened sheep at this time, and like ants on a hot pot, the only thing to do is to flee with full of fear, or even aimless, not caring whether the road in front of them can work, anyway, the knee-jerk reaction, the first thing is to escape from this battlefield that may send you to hell at any time.

"Enter!"

After another round of firing of the bed crossbow, Ding Li, who jumped on the war horse in a hurry, slowly pulled out the Tang knife, first raised it above the top, and then waved it forward, giving an order very calmly, and the sharp blade of the Tang knife in his hand was shining in the moonlight, and with Ding Li's movements, Ding Li's order reached the battlefield in front of him.

With Ding Li's order, a team of fifty crossbowmen under the leadership of the team, a group of three quickly jumped out of the gap between the bed crossbows, and the steps under their feet were fast, only more than five steps after the bed crossbow, they suddenly stopped their bodies, and flattened the short crossbow to their chests, and with the team taking the lead, a team of crossbowmen pulled the trigger one after another, and shot the arrows in the crossbow machine into the battlefield.

"Whoosh whoosh."

In a series of breaking sounds, the second team of crossbowmen who followed quickly followed, quickly passing through the first team of Pao Ze brothers, still five steps away, the body was in shape, and a formation composed of fifty crossbowmen was formed again, followed by a series of crossbow arrows breaking through the air again, which added a few more points to the screams and wails in the battlefield.

However, this was only the beginning of the advance, after the second team of crossbowmen, the third team of crossbowmen under the leadership of the team quickly rushed forward, still five paces away, stopped, raised the short crossbow, and pulled the trigger.

Then, after the first team of crossbowmen had finished changing their crossbow arrows, they trotted forward, passed through the formation of their companions of the second and third teams, and again extended the range of their crossbow arrows by five paces, stopped and released their arrows, pulling some of the hapless horse thieves off the battlefield on horseback.

The second team of crossbowmen rushed forward, closing the distance five paces closer again, and then the third team of crossbowmen, turning back to the first team's crossbowmen. The three teams of crossbowmen alternated, and the distance of five steps was not much, but the two sides were getting closer and closer, and the horse thieves on the battlefield were becoming more and more scattered.

Among them, there are many more step thieves, the thieves who have lost their mounts are forced by the salvo of crossbow arrows, and they also need to pay attention to the horse thief companions around them, one is not careful, either the small life is thrown under the crossbow arrow, or is hit by their own companions, although neither of them will die instantly, but in the current situation, the wounded and left on this battlefield, the outcome is no different from death on the spot, at most it is only a matter of time.

Everything on the battlefield seems to be developing according to Ding Li's previous speculation, and at this time, Ding Li, with the personal guard group led by Heizi, has instigated the mount to cross the bed crossbow in front of him, and on both sides, there is a team of cavalry led by Gouzi and Xiao Lizi, and the mount under the crotch is slowly advancing towards the battlefield in front of him.

The horse thieves in the battlefield have been completely chaotic, and even their friends have completely broken away from each other, and even their companions, who usually have good friendships, will fight hard at this moment in order to seize a good route that they think is a good route to escape.

Among the horse thieves who have no formation at all, there is a small team that is quite orderly, but this team has become the most obvious existence in the battlefield, this group of people is a horse thief who has lost his mount, the road to flee to both sides has been blocked by crossbow arrows, and the horse thieves on their own side are crowded to rob, so what is left for them is only the wide avenue when they came.

There are at least two hundred people, spreading their legs and fleeing without care, for them, as long as they can get out of the battlefield as soon as possible, there is still a glimmer of hope for survival, and the wide avenue in front of them now is undoubtedly the hope of life.

And at the end of the avenue, at this moment, you can still see the Southern Navy camp that was engulfed by fire in the distance, although the fire is extremely dim, but it can still be seen clearly with the naked eye. All the horse thieves came back from that direction, and along the way, including the sea of fire in the Southern Navy camp, it was safe for these horse thieves who escaped on foot.

As the night breeze blew, there seemed to be a faint smell of smoke, which was the smell emitted by the southern naval camp at the end after being swallowed by the sea of fire, although it was so far away, but with the pace of the feet continued to run, the horse thieves still smelled a little bit as if they were nothing, and more importantly, someone had already begun to smell the smell of danger from it.

Soon some people realized the existence of danger, the Southern Navy was able to set up a position at the foot of the Black Wind Mountain to block and encircle the horse thieves in the Black Wind Mountain, how could they still let the horse thieves who burned the Southern Navy camp to the ground again set foot on this road?

The horse thieves who thought of this place quickly replied in their hearts, it was impossible, and it was absolutely impossible, even they could not allow the enemy who burned their camp to escape from the carefully planned layout.

Thinking of this, some of the horse thieves had begun to slow down their steps, and in the midst of hesitation, panic and indecision began to appear on their faces, and the confusion in their eyes became thicker, but they could only look at their companions who ran past them, and those who were still behind and still struggling to escape.

The movement in the battlefield seems to be a little smaller, the crossbowmen of the Southern Navy have stopped, but the shouts of the horse thieves in the Black Wind Mountain are more obvious, and even mixed with the roars and scolding that sound from time to time, but at the same time that all this stopped and continued to happen, a cavalry of the Southern Navy, led by Ding Li himself, and the number was not large, began to enter the battlefield.

The personal guard regiment led by Ding Li and Heizi was only more than 20 people, and on both sides was a team of cavalry led by Gouzi and Xiao Lizi, and the total number of people was only more than 120 people, but it was more than 120 horses, even if the speed of progress was very slow, but as they passed through the three teams of crossbowmen and completely appeared on the battlefield, an invisible coercion followed, more like falling from the sky, and a sense of crisis that made all horse thieves feel that they had never had all the sense of crisis coming quickly.
