There is no sense of ritual at the beginning of the war.

The sound of trumpets and snare drums echoed on both sides of the torrent river. The Terdon cavalry rushed into the shallows and rushed to the Tiefeng County militia on the north shore.

Bard took a deep breath, pulled out a flat-headed arrow and placed it on the bow.

He lowered his shoulders, stretched his left arm, half-turned his elbow, placed his center of gravity on his left leg and poked his upper body out of his upper body in a slightly awkward position, pulling the bowstring all the way to his ears.

In order to control this 140-pound hard bow, there was no place in Bud's arms, back, waist and abdomen.

I saw his back muscles bulging high, his waist and abdomen were tightly tense, his arms were swollen, and his left hand holding the arch was even red.

The process of archery was long and short, and the bowstring and the bow body made a shattering sound due to stress, and Bard's body was also trembling slightly.

Strictly speaking, he is not aiming because his sight is not in the same straight line as the arrow.

His target was not a fixed target disc, but an enemy who was racing on horseback.

He was not even holding the bow, but was closer to using the tiger's mouth to press against the bow body and assisting with his fingers.

At some point, it seemed as if the heart suddenly paused, and it was like a cold wind blew across the back, and Bard followed his intuition to relax his right hand.

The bow strings played like a zither string, and the arrow was pushed away from the bow in an instant.

The arrow flew across the water in an incredible way, and the Terdon cavalry was riding and shooting ten meters away.

With just a brief delay, the flat and sharp arrows penetrated the robe, skin and flesh, and penetrated deep into the lungs from under the left rib until the energy was exhausted.

The air poured into the chest cavity, and blood and alveoli flowed back into the trachea. The Telton man, who was shot in the arrow, lost his strength at once. He strangled his throat and fell from the saddle, and fell into the knee-deep river.

The prelude to the battle was pulled out by this arrow, and all the militias who saw the enemy's horses were excited and cheered.

Bud didn't see this because he didn't care about the outcome of the battle.

Only the militia who was in battle for the first time would fire an arrow first, staring at the tail of the arrow feathers, cheering when they shot, and being upset when they failed.

While the arrowhead was still sitting on the horse's back, Bud had drawn another arrow and fired his bow again.

If the militia's archery skills were half as capable as Bard, it would be no difficulty to repel these more than a hundred Terden cavalrymen.

Unfortunately, most militiamen did not.

Therefore, as soon as the battle broke out, the Tiefeng County militia, which was four times the enemy, were faintly suppressed by the Teltons.

If Bard hadn't had the fences and horse-resisted on the river bank in advance, his men would have been destroyed by the charge of the Terden cavalry.

The way of archery by the militia archer is similar to that of Bad: he clamps his strings with four fingers, leans forward, and puts bundles of arrows at his feet, shooting one by one and taking one by one.

The Terdon cavalry had a completely different shooting method: stomp up, hold the bow and arrow in the left hand at the same time, and press the string with the thumb; sweep across the formation like a gust of wind, and shoot several arrows in succession in the speeding,

Hit to escape.

Hail-like arrows came with the sound of thunder hooves - the sound of riding and shooting was really terrifying.

If the private camp troops had not been strictly imparted and had supervised teams to escort the formation, many militia would have fled in panic long ago.

"Coward! What are you afraid of?!" Ish, who was carrying a vine whip, walked among the militia and shouted loudly.

He made a ruthless move and whipped hard at the trembling militia who was hiding behind the shield: "Think about your wife and children! Don't hide! The timid fighter is snatched!"

Under the supervision, coercion and even intimidation of soldiers at all levels, the timid militia also stood up and trembled against the people of Terton.

For militias, bows and arrows are also luxury goods, and half of them only have simple catapult ropes.

There is also a little benefit to the catapult rope - there is no shortage of ammunition, and the river beaches are full of stones.

From time to time, militia were hit by a hawkish arrow and screamed for help. A special person immediately carried him to the rear of the front line to avoid affecting morale.

From time to time, the Terdon people were also caught, and the fate waiting for them was much more miserable. Not only was there no one to rescue them, but they were even trampled by the cavalry who could not dodge.

"Down on the bow! Don't waste arrows!" Seeing some militia floating out of the arrows, Ish's anger was about to jump out: "Don't aim at people! Shoot the barbarian's horse! Look at the two horses in front of the barbarian's body

Position shot!”

The shoal that the two armies are competing for has no official name. The people of Tiefeng County only call it "Pushichang" or "Pushikonghejichang".

Once upon a time, the bandits of Mazhao Ivan ambushed the Wolf Town convoy here.

Now it is Bud's turn to lead his troops here to resist the Tertons.

It is no coincidence that blood is repeatedly stained here.

As a tributary, although the water volume of Pangtuo River is not as good as that of Dajiao River, it is densely covered with mountains and forests, and there are not many suitable places for crossing the river.

For a long time, I have only two ways to go through the Pangtuo River:

Either pass through Xiaoshi Town, where the terrain is flat, the river channel is narrow, and there are bridges across rivers; or you can walk through the shallow between Heishui Town and Niushi Valley - that is, the "travel ground".

From the terrain, the siege is the gate of Zhongtiefeng County. The people of Terdun wanted to attack and the people of Tiefeng County wanted to guard it. The cruel battle surrounding this shallow is inevitable.

After gritting his teeth and surviving the first few rounds of arrow exchange, the number advantage of Tiefeng County militia gradually took effect.

In order to pursue the rate of fire, the Telton people have limited accuracy and strength to ride and shoot.

The people of Tiefeng County had a stunning head with stone casting and stair shooting, and their strength was not very good, but there were many militiamen.

When the battle proceeds in a situation of exchange of casualties, that is, the balance of victory is smooth toward the side of Iron Peak County.

The leader of this Telden Hundred Cavalry Team, Tulukota [chewing the corpse], watched the battle on the south bank of Mama. The situation was clear at a glance: the two-legged man could defend it simply by refusing horses and fences, swords against swords, guns against guns, and guns against guns

Kill, the two-legged person will be defeated immediately.

Seeing that the "Beast-driven" tactic did not work, Chezhezi summoned his confidant Hong Lingyu and whispered a few words. The latter immediately led more than a dozen armored cavalry to circle from their right side towards the edge of the shallow.

As soon as the Telton Arc Cavalry came out of the battle, it caused the militias of Tiefeng County.

Because these armored horses are not wearing the common armors in various departments, but the entire set of black three-quarter plate armor.

Accompanied by the sound of horns from the south bank, the Telden Light Cavalry shrank its formation and focused on the direction of the soldiers' attack, tilting the arrow feathers to suppress the Paratus.

Terdunjia rode over and dismounted at thirty steps away, carrying a shield and rope to approach the river bank.

They stayed outside the attack range of long-handed weapons such as halberds and spears, and put on horseback and fences like cows, and then used the power of war horses to drag the wooden stakes away.

The stones thrown by the militia and the arrows shot out could not hurt the soldiers' vital points.

The Telton Armor relied on the strength of the plate armor and did not avoid the arrows and stones, and striking the militia's psychological defense line in an unstoppable posture.

The fence built by Bard did not have horizontal beams, and looked like a vertical horse-repelling pile, one by one. The disadvantage is that it is easy to be pulled down, and the advantage is that it will not be pulled down in a row.

Bud sighed softly in his heart. The last time he saw these three quarters of black, he was wearing them. The pistol cavalry under Custer was wearing them.

"Blow the trumpet, second section." Bard lowered his bow and ordered the trumpeter beside him.

As if it was echoing the sound of the horn, the sharp sound of the horn also sounded on the north shore, even suppressing the dull horn sound.

The formation of the Tiefeng County militia changed, and they were replaced by skilled longbowmen who were individually organized into a team to the left wing, and began to suppress the Terdon Bow Cavalry.

A Telton soldier unwillingly pulled out the fence and refused to fight the horse, and ignored the sound of the warlock. He wore the best armor of his two legs, and unless Tengger doesn't bless him, the bow and arrow will never hurt him.

There is no need for a large gap. As long as three horses can be allowed to run in parallel, the cavalry can rush into the two-legged man. At that time, he will be able to get the first credit to break into the enemy formation.

Suddenly, the sound of wind and thunder sounded in my ears, and a huge force came from the top of my head. Even through the helmet, this huge force still knocked Telton's armor to crack the skull and bleeding from seven orifices.

The eyes of Telton's soldiers fell into the river and slowly fell into the river. The blunt attack did not kill him on the spot. He eventually died of choking in a coma.

The soldier didn't understand what killed him until he died, but the chewing corpse who was watching the battle could see clearly.

The two legs of the other side raised wooden poles as long as they were used in the ritual of hanging meat to sacrifice the sky, and slapped several of his elite soldiers to death like slapping flies.

[Note: About six meters]

Chewing the corpse finally understood why there was no beam on the fence opposite. With the beam, the long pole could not be hit through the gaps of the fence.

Several alive soldiers fled from the river bank in a panic. The attack range of the long pole was also limited, so it was safe to keep the distance open.

As soon as the soldiers retreated, the battle turned into a battle between the two sides and shot arrows.

"Let's retreat for the time being! Kota! Taichi asked you and me to find out the water relationship, not let you and me fight!" Hong Lingyu, who was following the corpse chewing, advised him: "If you delay any longer, the children of this clan will all be

It's going to be broken!”

Chewing the corpse and shook his head.

The Telton light cavalry in the stumbling field was like a swarm of bees, which seemed to be running randomly, but actually contained some order. With the sound of the horns, they gathered again.

But this time they did not break through from the right wing again, but instead concentrated their strength to assault on the left wing.

The trampling ground is about a hundred steps wide, so the infantry will not be fooled by the cavalry.

Bard also adjusted his formation and changed the best longbower to his right wing (corresponding to the left wing of the Terdon people).

The Telton people lined up in three rows, and suddenly rushed towards the horse-received stake, which was vaguely as if they were charging.

At least half of the Paratus believed that the Terdun people wanted to use their lives to fight against the horses, and the remaining Paratus - mainly veterans - believed that the Terdun people wanted to commit suicide.

But this amazing charge ended up drawing an arc in front of the horse-rejecting formation. The Telton cavalry turned a corner and ran back to the south bank.

At the same time, while the attention of the Paratus was attracted by the powerful charge of the left wing, several Telden riders rushed to the right wing quietly and dragged away the bodies of the knocked soldiers.

It's right.

The Teltons retreated back to the river bank and disappeared into the woods, as if they had never been there.

The militia looked at each other and stood in a daze, unable to speak for a long time.
