Chapter 031: The whereabouts of the raiding team are revealed
The raiders were fully armed with helmets and armor, carrying several quivers, with a total weight of more than 80 catties, and they could not squat at all.
Even if you barely crouch down, it will inevitably not make a sound, and then it will be found by the defenders on the mountain, and it will be bad.
"Take off your armor and skirts, and find a place to hide first."
Jin Shubao ordered that he first take off the armor and skirt, leaving only the upper body armor to protect.
In this way, you can walk, squat, climb freely, and be much more flexible.
Guys did the same.
Later facts proved that Jin Shubao's temporary decision was absolutely wise and correct.
To carry out a sneak attack in a pit or trench, you can only fight in half-body armor.
Even so, the raiders were still very struggling, walking about thirty steps with a bow, and then they had to lie down to rest for a while and catch their breath.
It's so humiliating.
Fan Hu, who fell at the end, drew a topographic sketch on a sheepskin, and he was more careful.
He had to keep a detailed record of the route taken by the raiding party, and at the same time, he had to leave secret notes everywhere.
In the event of an emergency, the raiding party needs to retreat quickly so that they do not end up in a twist and turn and get lost and fall into the enemy's encirclement.
"Mother, these guys in Yunhai Castle have nothing to do every day when they are full of food and support, what are they doing to dig the trench so long and so dense?"
Just now, although they had only walked more than a hundred steps, they had passed through five or six intersections and quietly killed four Turkic sentinels.
Of course, it's all a sneak attack with a short blade cutting throat in the back.
Most of the Turkic defenders on the top of the hill were attracted by the cannon fodder troops below the mountain, and they were watching the excitement and watching how to hang them.
On the mountain and under the mountain, they used feathered arrows to tease each other, ridiculed, mocked, and cursed.
There was a commotion.
This is a war, it's just playing with each other and mixing time.
Only a part of the Turkic soldiers remained in the trenches or pillboxes.
They simply did not realize that the enemy had already touched up from behind the mountain.
And Ling Hupo and Xu Shichang, who were following behind the raiders, jumped into this damn trench unhurriedly.
They're okay, they don't have any armor on them, and they're at ease.
The bodies of two Turkic soldiers were found first.
It was touched behind him and instantly cut the carotid artery and trachea, so that it did not have time to speak.
This kind of whistle-touching technique is old and spicy, and it is all done by experienced veterans.
The corpse was lying on its back, with its eyes wide open and still not staring, which was strange and scary.
"Uh..."
Seeing the horrific corpse up close for the first time, Xu Shichang couldn't help but feel sick.
Ling Hupo covered his mouth in time and shouted, "You are looking for death!" ”
Xu Shichang's whole body was obviously trembling, his face was white, and he looked like he was about to faint.
The first time you go to the battlefield and see the horrific scenes of killing up close, everyone will have this reaction.
Wait a minute, can he stab the enemy in front of him?!
Linghu Po suddenly became a little worried.
Although Linghu Po was also on the ancient battlefield for the first time, he was also nervous, but the last time he fought with the wolves, he really experienced the bloody storm, and he passed a hurdle in his heart.
This is very important.
It can be seen that an experience can affect a lifetime and even change a person's fate.
"Brother, you have to be strong, treat these Turkic barbarians as enemies who killed your parents, and you will live or die."
The mental agitation of the spur of the moment really worked.
Seeing Xu Shichang gritting his teeth and nodding his head, Ling Hupo breathed a sigh of relief slightly, "Later, you will follow me, use a bow and arrow to shoot the enemy, and I will use the knife as much as possible." ”
He was still worried that if Xu Shichang was faced with the enemy, the hurdle in his heart would not be able to be passed in an instant.
If you move a little slowly, your life will be gone.
But shooting arrows at a certain distance, I believe he can still do it.
"Well, don't worry, big brother, I'm much better now."
Ling Hupo's mental counseling just now was very effective, and when he thought of the enemy who killed his parents, the murderous aura on Xu Shichang's body became much stronger.
The iron bow on the corpse was examined in his hand, which made Hu Po's eyes light up.
It's a good step bow, the bands are well protected, the force is balanced, and it's almost a three-stone bow.
They quickly replaced their bows with hardwood and iron bows of the Turks, and they also carried their quivers on their shoulders in case the battle began.
In the era of cold weapons, arrows, like bullets, were very valuable in battle.
Now the two of them, whether it is bows or arrows, have enough reserves, and their combat effectiveness has doubled.
With their weapons in hand, the two men continued along the trench, quietly following behind the raiding party.
Of course, they can't keep too close, and always keep a distance of more than 100 steps, so as not to cause misunderstanding among the other party, give them a horse gun, and kill themselves, which will be miserable.
"Mother, we've been discovered!"
The whispered anger was one of the captains of the raid team, named Ding Jun, nicknamed the Assassin.
He, like Fan Hu, is Jin Shubao's brother.
He is good at assassination with a short blade, and is an old scout.
Several feather arrows hit Ding Jun's side, and he took two steps back in embarrassment.
According to the raid plan, clear along the trench all the way to the front of the position, and capture the crossbow position, including the Eight Ox Crossbow.
Here, Ding Jun had just finished clearing a trench, and an enemy appeared not far away.
After the two glanced at each other, Ding Jun took the lead and threw the short blade in his hand out.
"Whoosh..."
The short blade stabbed deep into the chest of the Turkic soldier in front.
Because he didn't cut his throat, the guy let out a scream before he died, which alarmed the surrounding enemies.
"Enemy attack..."
"Ang woo..."
“……”
Suddenly, the soldiers on the top of the mountain shouted and the horn sirens sounded.
The enemy rushed out of the pillboxes one after another and surrounded them at the first time.
Feather arrows flew like locusts, overwhelming the sky, so that Jin Shubao and they couldn't raise their heads.
Two members of the raid team were instantly wounded by arrows.
The whereabouts of the raiders have been revealed!
As soon as they reached the halfway point, they were discovered, and most of the trenches had not had time to be cleared, and the raid turned into an encounter, which was unlucky.
The enemy is outnumbered, and the wisest choice is to retreat and defend.
However, several trenches have been cleared, more than two dozen enemies, and if they retreat directly now, this is called giving up halfway, which makes everyone present unwilling.
"Tun rate, what should we do?"
The eyes of the whole team were focused on Jin Shubao.
Jin Shubao understood everyone's feelings, he gritted his teeth and said, "Keep going, it's all come to this point, it's a pity to give up!" ”
"I agree..."
"Agreed..."
“……”
Almost no one is willing to give up this opportunity to make military achievements.
The soldier himself does the work of licking blood on the tip of a knife and wearing a belt on his head.
After a few years of mixing, he didn't make military merits, and he didn't get promoted and made a fortune, how could he go back to his hometown to see his parents, wife and children?
How can you glorify your ancestors?
With everyone's consent, the raiding party moved on.
Jin Shubao consulted with several elders and decided to change the attack strategy.
