Chapter 391: Crossbow fight under Shouchun City

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Liu Yu changed into a soldier's uniform and stood behind the battlements. Looking from here, the number of catapults on the opposite side had been greatly reduced. There were only more than thirty, sparsely sparse and feebly firing stones.

The curtain at the top of the city is being retracted, because tens of thousands of Qin army archers have already lined up and are walking towards the city wall. With their every move, those feather arrows are in the quivers on their waists.

The tail feathers of the bird also swayed, and from a distance, one could see a jumping white expanse.

Zhu Lingshi's mouth curled up. He was also wearing leather armor and holding a shield. He stood beside Liu Yu and said: "Master, the enemy is coming forward. Do you want to use the flying rocks behind the city wall to hit the city?"

What about the heavy crossbow machine above your head to shoot?"

Liu Yu shook his head: "They are just archers, nothing to worry about. They also want to use this flying stone attack to detect the location of our army's heavy weapons. Send an order to the crossbowmen and archers at the top of the city to prepare.

Remove the curtain to prevent the enemy from using rockets to burn our curtain and ignite the city. Crossbow arrows are used to deal with the enemy's entire group of heavily armored soldiers, don't waste them on the archers!"

Zhu Lingshi smiled slightly, glanced at the dense crowd of armored sergeants holding bows and arrows lurking under the crenellations of the city head, and said: "No!"

Wang Yong was not riding a horse. He was holding a long arrow and wearing heavy armor. He was walking among the archers. The soldiers on one side were holding thick wooden shields and following him. A soldier named Hou Hai said nervously: "General

, Is this really good? Shouchun City has some heavy-duty crossbows. If they are fired, can we survive?"

Wang Yong smiled slightly, and continued walking forward without stopping for a moment: "If they really launched the missile, which they had launched just now, would they still let us get here? Don't worry, Shouchun's defense focus is on Beicheng.

As long as we capture this place, the other places will be destroyed without attack. If we are really hit, just blame yourself for your bad luck."

He suddenly stopped. This position happened to be about 80 steps away from the city. As he stopped, more than ten thousand archers also stopped. Only Wang Yong's sharp roar was heard, accompanied by

Thousands of horns sounded at the same time: "Archers, target city, attack and suppress in ten rounds!"

Draw the arrow, wind it, draw the bow, take aim, and then follow the command of the captains to fire in unison. The movements are uniform. The tens of thousands of archers are as if they are shooting arrows by one person. If they are not at the top of the city, they will be shooting arrows.

Liu Yu even started to applaud and praise the person who was being shot.

But even so, Liu Yu let out a long sigh: "The Guanzhong Di soldiers are really well-deserved. In the past, we have seen the Qin army's cavalry as fast as the wind and the infantry as tough as the mountains. Today, we have seen it.

Their archers are also so well-trained. It is said that most of the archers are ordinary militiamen. It is difficult for civilians to have such discipline when they are recruited. From this point of view, Guanzhong soldiers and horses are really the masters of hegemony.

ah."

Zhu Lingshi curled his lips, raised his big shield to cover Liu Yu from the arrows in the air, and said: "Master, do you still have the heart to praise the enemy's power at this time? It's really yours. However,

The Qin army’s archers are shooting at the city wall like this, why don’t we use crossbows to fight back?”

Liu Yu shook his head: "There's no need. This is for fighting dense infantry, heavy infantry. Look at these archers, they are all spread out. If we fight with a big weapon, not only will our position be exposed, but we won't have too many enemies."

Good killing effect. This is exactly what Liang Cheng wants us to do."

At this point, a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Send the order, continue to lurk, and do not move without permission. When the enemy moves forward again, follow my command to attack!"

After ten rounds of feather arrows were fired, the city head was already densely covered with arrows, and a large number of flags were fluttering in the wind, fluttering in the hunting cold wind. But except for the sound of the wind unfurling the war flags, the city head was almost completely covered with arrows.

There was no movement, not even a cough or a scream could be heard. The battlefield looked particularly strange. All the archers turned their heads and looked in the direction of Wang Yong, waiting for his next order.

Wang Yong gritted his teeth and said sternly: "Keep moving forward, thirty steps away from the city, and shoot out all the arrows!"

His order was quickly spread to the ears of every soldier through various drums and horns, and also reached the city top. More than ten thousand Qin army archers moved forward one after another. Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly, and he turned to look to the side.

Murong Nan: "Have you heard the direction of the horn?"

Murong Nan nodded, stood up, and had already set a four-tailed iron-feathered wolf-tooth long arrow on the big bow with five stones and two buckets. Murongous intent flashed in his eyes, and he pointed at the man who had just made the horn sound.

The place is shot with one arrow.

A scream of "Wow" came out. The trumpet player next to Wang Yong was suddenly shot through by an arrow. A blood hole suddenly appeared, and blood spurted out. Wang Yong's face changed, but

I only heard a bang from the top of the city: "Kill!"

Almost in an instant, two thousand archers suddenly stood out from behind the crenellations of the female wall at the top of the city. Different from the ordinary lightly-armed archers, these archers were all wearing heavy armor, and their whole bodies were covered in iron armor, including their faces.

They all wore various evil ghost masks, and what they held in their hands were almost all large bows of about three stones. The long wolf-toothed arrows on them were far longer and more powerful than ordinary arrows.

These three thousand archers are none other than the elite bowmen from Yuzhou who were personally selected by Huan Yi over the years. Their skills with bows and arrows are outstanding in the world!

The archers of the Qin army were arranging in three lines this time, rushing forward. The sound of clappers on the city wall was heard, and they were still moving forward. The trumpeter beside Wang Yong was killed with one arrow. At this moment,

There was almost no organization or command among the 10,000 Di archers of the Qin army. Everyone just continued to move forward, unable even to stop or draw their bows.

Another messenger next to Wang Yong realized it immediately and quickly picked up the horn in the hand of the trumpeter. He was about to blow the stop trumpet when he heard a "woo" and another arrow flew towards him. This time he

It was an arrow shot from the center of his eyebrow. The arrow penetrated his skull and passed through his brain. He let out a scream and fell down on his back.

Wang Yong shouted: "Blow the trumpet to tell everyone to stop!" As he said this, he picked up his big bow, strung an arrow, and shot an arrow at Murong Nan at the top of the city.

Murong Nan's face changed slightly. The arrow came with a fierce force. When he lowered his head, he heard a "bang" sound, followed by a "snatching" sound from behind him. The corner of his eye glanced behind him, but it was

The bright red tassel on the head of the helmet was shot away by the arrow, and the flaming tassel stuck on the beam behind him, where it kept shaking.
