In the second year of Jingkang, on the ninth day of the first month, the sun was in the middle of the sky.

Starting from the camp of the Jinbing West Route Army, the scale was a total of two thousand infantry, and in a period of rapid marching, they finally came to the foot of the Cooking Cake Mountain.

At such a time, more than 100 large and small trees on the hill had just been cut down, and they had not had time to cut off the extra branches.

The dilapidated mountain temple was only half demolished.

Hundreds of large green bricks have not yet had time to be moved.

Hu Biao, who heard such news at that time, hurriedly put on the heavy armor he had taken off when he was working, carried a horse lance and a recurve bow, and came to the edge of the hill and looked down the mountain.

You can see these Jin soldiers infantry, although it is obviously a cannon fodder unit among the gold soldiers.

But most of them have a leather armor on their bodies, and even one or two percent of them are wearing an iron armor in the style of fish scale armor.

There are various troop configurations such as spears, swords and shields, knives and axes, bows and arrows, and from the details of marching and formation, the combat effectiveness is quite good.

More importantly, under the successive victories against the Great Song Dynasty.

The morale and morale of these cannon fodder troops are now quite high, which means that their will to fight is stronger.

Therefore, after reaching the foot of the mountain, these infantry did not have the intention of taking a little rest, and they were ready to attack the mountain in the midst of the shouting and scolding of the junior officers in the army, such as the centurion and the colonel.

Specifically, three hundred archers, under the cover of some sword and shield men, began to slowly approach the position at the foot of the mountain.

The Cooking Cake Mountain was only forty or fifty meters high, and with the foot bows in their hands, if they were to use the projectile method, they could cover almost all the area on the top of the mountain.

In addition, there are more than a hundred golden soldiers who are significantly thicker.

They were dressed in iron armor, with shields in one hand and axes and swords in the other, and they were followed by more than 200 people, slowly approaching the Cooking Cake Mountain.

In short, as soon as these infantry arrived, they were ready to dispatch several times their forces.

Under the cover of the bow and arrows, he planned to climb not only the only one step up the mountain, but also from the other two steep slopes, and rushed up directly in one go.

This is also the reason why the small hill of Cookcake Mountain, which borders the two slopes in the northwest of the land, can accommodate the attackers with limited personnel, otherwise the Jin soldiers will only invest more offensive troops.

Therefore, in addition to the above attacking troops, there are two or three hundred archers on the Jin Bing side ready to replace.

And there are still thousands of troops ready to join the sequence of attacking the mountain at any time.

In comparison, the guard force on the top of the mountain, including Hu Biao and others, as well as Liu An and other officials, as well as some male musicians, did not exceed 100 combatants.

There are nearly 200 Kabuki dancers, but their graceful figures represent specific combat effectiveness, and even those healthy women in Haiyang City can't compare to them.

And in addition to a group of netizens, it can be said that the armor is complete, and the others can't even have a weapon.

A simple comparison of the hard conditions of troops and equipment between the two sides shows that the men and women on the top of the mountain are all terrified......

"Special! How did it come so quickly. ”

After seeing the above situations, Hu Biao suddenly cursed in his mouth.

You know, he had been shouting for all the trees on the hill to be cut down, except for some potholes in the anticline that he planned to use the logs to support the anticline.

I also plan to use these logs to tie up some simple wooden shields and erect them to defend against the loss of the mountain.

The result? These golden soldiers came too quickly, and the improvised shield of Yiying didn't have time to make it at all.

Fortunately, the potholes on the anticline, although not much was dug out; But there's no problem with going there to avoid the drain.

For this reason, Hu Biao didn't dare to delay much, and hurriedly shouted:

"All the men with the handles were left behind, and all the women quickly retreated and hid in the caves in the back hills; Don't show your face without my orders.

Liu An, you take part of them against the door panel to block the loss.

Others, for me to move those big green bricks, when the time comes, these grandsons will be stoned to death; With me waiting, don't try to rush up these golden people. ”

In Hu Biao's roaring voice, the men and women on the top of the mountain, who were originally flustered, immediately had the backbone; They all followed Hu Biao's orders and got busy.

The old birds of the team naturally don't need Hu Biao to say any more nonsense.

In addition to Wolf Qing and Wu Pawn, plus Chen Tang, a rookie, the three of them continued to seize the time on the anticline to make the key black powder.

Among the other team members, not counting Hu Biao, there are a total of 17 old birds, and they are already ready for battle.

Even Xu Feng didn't forget to call the old snake, and the two of them quickly found the trunk of a small straight pine tree, and cleaned the excess branches with knives and axes.

He took out a battle flag full of brand new Xuange camps, hung it up, and set it up on the Cooking Cake Mountain.

After a lapse of more than four years, the Xuange Camp has once again made a name for itself in this world, and will leave countless legends.

As for the other seven rookies, including Guifei and Barong, of course, they fought with Hu Biao.

For Hu Biao and others, there is no way to make rookies grow up more quickly than directly pulling them to the battlefield to participate in the battle.

Of course, the premise is that in this process, these rookies have not hung up.

But every time they come over now, they will bring some basic equipment to the rookies; As long as you take care of it in battle, it's actually not that easy to hang up......

About a minute later, when the last woman with small feet also ran to the relative safety of the anticline, just at the foot of the mountain, a golden soldier Mouke centurion shouted out a sentence:

"Shoot arrows, shoot at full speed~"

The three hundred archers, who had advanced to the foot of the mountain under the cover of the sword and shield men, all let go of the bowstring that had been drawn on their right hands and threw an arrow at the mountain.

They didn't look at the specific results of the battle, and their right hands drew an arrow from the quiver on their waists, and shot it again after firing the bow.

The interval between two arrows is only three or four breaths.

Suddenly, there were dense arrows one after another, as if it was raining arrows; After drawing an arc in the air, they began to fall on the mountain of cooking cakes, which was the official opening of the battle.

And almost at the same time, the centurion of the golden soldier who had just shouted 'release the arrow' in his mouth.

The shield raised by one of his subordinates in front of him was splashed with a loud 'woo~'.

Without waiting for this golden soldier sword and shield hand to be able to make some other reactions, the head of the centurion wearing a felt hat behind him was like a smashed watermelon, and red and white things flew all over the sky.

It was Lao Hei who beckoned him out, and forcibly killed an officer of the golden soldiers on the spot......

"This recurve bow is a little uglier in appearance, but it looks quite easy to use."

Fenghua Club, a rookie who is said to be 'the king of the king', is not very difficult, and he is full of a recurve bow with a power of at least 100 pounds.

While squinting his left eye, aiming at an archer at the foot of the mountain, he used this small dripping method in his mouth to relieve the huge pressure in his heart.

No way! At this moment, the seven rookies, including Fenghuahui, are panicked in their hearts.

Since the start of the war, when at least 300 golden archers at the foot of the mountain fired their bows and fired quickly, for them on the mountain, it could be described as rain of arrows.

In a short time, the ground on the top of the mountain was full of arrows stuck in the ground.

At first glance, it looks like weeds growing wildly on the ground after a spring rain.

Under the cover of such a dense rain of arrows, they naturally have no way to avoid it; It's been a little bit of time since the war started, and even Fenghuahui himself can't remember how many arrows he was hit.

The only thing that can be thankful is that the equipment given by those old birds is indeed quite powerful.

Not to mention the recurve bow with a small pulley set, it can be fully pulled without much effort.

With such power, if you hit the target within 70 meters, you should be able to shoot through the iron armor.

The most important thing is that in the previous time, when Yu Hanfeng learned about their personal situation, he gave them some spare equipment that was said to be a group of old birds.

These armors and weapons, every rookie they have.

Specifically, it includes a stainless steel helmet with a brim, boots with steel plates on the toes, and a set of 100% silk underwear.

A piece of chain mail with a small gap between wires and a dense weave that is completely capable of defending against bows and arrows, and a piece of iron armor in the style of a short head-length armor.

There is also a steel mask that can be tied to the face with beef tendons.

After wearing all of the above on the body, even if the short head armor has shrunk significantly during the crafting process, it can still be a good defense against the arrows that are thrown at you.

In addition, such a burden of more than 30 pounds is worn on the body, which makes people very laborious.

But the arrows that fell on Fenghuahui's body were basically bounced off after hitting some sparks.

A small number of arrows, by chance, pierced through the gap between the armor pieces and pierced through the outermost piece of iron armor, but then they were also blocked by dense chain mail.

In the end, the feeling of Fenghuahui is that the body seems to be pricked by a needle, and it is basically fine.

The problem is that even if it is thanks to good protection, such a rain of arrows cover is actually not really harmful to Fenghuahui.

But there is a stinging pain on the body at every turn, or the sound of the heavenly spirit covering 'winter~', such a movement is really scary for a modern ordinary person.

Therefore, Fenghua will only use chatter to relieve the tension in the heart.

It's useless to say, but something has to be done, right?

In short, after taking another arrow on the helmet of the head, and after three 'jingles~' on the body, Fenghua finally thought that he had aimed at that target.

Then, he released his right hand, which was full of bowstrings.

Under the powerful vibration of the bowstring, an arrow was hurriedly soaked in dung for about twenty minutes, and I don't know if there was a heavy arrow with germs, so it was shot out.

Saying! This is the first time that the greasy old man of Fenghuahui has shot an arrow at a living person.

Such a feeling of imminent murder is so difficult to express in words.

Under the inexplicable emotion, he even had a delusion:

That is, you can see the heavy arrows that shoot out, and they are constantly writhing in the air like a fish, as if it is a magical picture like a special effect of a movie.

The next second later, in the mouth of the rookie of Fenghuahui, there was already a national scolding blurted out:

"Special! Why did you miss it~"

And similar to Fenghuahui, such a situation where you do miss after working for a long time is actually quite common among rookies, maybe they have been exposed to bows and arrows in the modern plane, and they can even be regarded as a hobbyist.

But between playing and actually fighting, it's two different things.

******

"Liu An and other officials listened to the order and smashed those big green bricks down for me~"

After shooting an arrow with a recurve bow in his hand, directly piercing the thigh of a golden soldier; Looking at the opponent who had rushed to more than twenty steps away, Hu Biao's mouth issued a brand new order.

He didn't know at all, and he didn't care about those rookies, they all seemed to be lonely.

Under such an order, he wore a Liao soldier-style helmet on his head, and wore a piece of Kaifeng Mansion head catcher Liu An, who was pulled down from the corpse of the Jin soldier and was still covered with bloodstained leather armor.

I picked up a big green brick in my hand, and after mustering up my strength, I threw it out.

The big blue brick, which weighed more than 20 catties, was thrown out by Liu An for only ten meters, and then fell weakly to the ground.

But it doesn't matter, it's not a big problem.

Under the boxy shape of this large blue brick, although there is no curvature, it is not as easy to roll as a large stone; However, thanks to the fact that the Cooking Cake Mountain is more than 60 degrees, it bounces up again after landing.

Then he jumped, tumbled, and went all the way down, and the speed got faster and faster.

The other two dozen officials, after moving a little slower, also threw down the big green bricks.

Soon after, on that staircase, as well as on the west and north slopes of Cooking Cake Mountain, there were many large blue bricks tumbling down.

A group of Jin soldiers attacking the mountain, although they had long been wary of the Song people on the mountain, threw down the sandalwood and rolling stones, these deadly things, in the process.

But obviously I saw it, it's one thing; It's another thing to try to dodge the slopes of a hill where every step up is a bit laborious.

But in the blink of an eye, there were more than a dozen golden soldiers with terrible screams coming out of their mouths.

Either they were bounced up with a big blue brick and hit the chest; Either that, or just a hit on the leg in the middle of the dodge.

But no matter where he was hit, he immediately let out a miserable scream in his mouth, and the whole person lost his balance and fell down.

Immediately afterward, these people who fell on their heads also rolled down like gourds on the ground, making the scene even more chaotic.

On the slopes of the mountains on both sides to the northwest, screams were heard.

It's a pity that the attacking Jin soldiers are too abundant in terms of troops, and the morale under the successive victories is currently outrageously strong.

The rest of the people who were not smashed to the ground took advantage of the gap between Liu An and others throwing big green bricks, and they had already accelerated their pace and continued to rush up.

Some of the fastest of them had already rushed to within ten meters.

What's even worse is that although the archers at the foot of the mountain are all cannon fodder, their archery skills are far less accurate and deadly than the pure-blooded Jurchens.

The point is that there are too many of them, and the arrows are even more dense.

After Liu An and the others each threw out one or two big green bricks, the golden soldiers and archers under the mountain were already paying attention to these officials in the roar of the officers who reacted.

Even in the next second, the two exposed officers died in the sniping of the warehouse manager and Lao He respectively.

But after a sharp arrow flew down the mountain, Hu Biao's ears were filled with several screams and muffled snorts; Quickly turning his head to take a look, he could see that there were already four or five servants, who had fallen to the ground without knowing whether they were alive or dead.

Even the head catcher Liu An, the corner of the left eyebrow has an extra wound with skin and flesh turned out.

The blood gushing out kept staining half of his face blood-red, and he looked extremely miserable.

It's just that seeing that the Jin soldiers are about to rush up to engage in the battle, Hu Biao at this time can't care about the casualties of these servants at all.

A sentence roared out of his mouth: "Liu An continues to throw, pay attention to hiding well~"

At the same time, he decisively threw down the recurve bow in his hand, lifted the horse lance on the side, and stabbed it towards the target in front of him.

In the next second, Hu Biao rushed to the left-hand side, killing a Jin soldier who climbed along the steep slope in the north.

The golden soldier who opened his mouth and gasped for breath because he was desperately rushing up, with the expression of fear frozen before death, fell to the ground with a 'snap~'.

Just now, Hu Biao's horse lance stabbed directly into his mouth, piercing the back of his head.

And when Hu Biao made his move, the rest of the team also engaged in melee fighting.

Let's be honest! No matter how high the morale of these golden soldiers is, when they rush to the edge of the mountain during a difficult attack and climbing, they are not only tired, but also slow down.

Therefore, don't talk about Hu Biao and their old birds, even a group of rookies and servants, they can also kill their opponents relatively easily.

In the end, almost all of the more than 100 armor soldiers who rushed to the forefront when the Jin soldiers attacked the mountain were killed; Counting other casualties, it exceeded two hundred and twenty or thirty people.

At the foot of the mountain, there was finally a horn of retreat.

Jin Bing, who had already felt the fear, immediately retreated frantically.

Another horse lance stabbed out, and after stabbing a Jin soldier who turned around and tried to escape, he stabbed a cold heart in the back, and Hu Biao did not continue to chase and kill.

After a quick glance around, I came up with two pieces of news, one good and one bad.

The good news is that the armor and weapons of some of the nearby Jin soldiers who died at the edge of the hill can be greatly alleviated in terms of equipment.

In terms of arrows, this thing doesn't have to worry about it.

Now the arrows stuck in the top of the hill are densely packed, like a field of crops after a good harvest.

The bad news is that in the battle, which only lasted just now, in fact, it was not long, and they still had more than a dozen dead and wounded in the terrain.

may be placed in other parts of the Great Song Dynasty, such a casualty exchange ratio can be described as a catastrophe; But such casualties, for their limited strength, are almost two.

And before dark, God knows how many more attacks they will face.

This person is enough to die......
