Chapter 518 [Do you want me to remind you?]

Jingguan, where three hundred heads were piled up.

And that bloody warning.

However, this is not enough to scare away the iron hoofs of the grassland people.

Going eastward, since crossing the Northwest Corridor, the journey straight in without defense and resistance has grown up the arrogance in the hearts of the grassland people. At this moment, the destruction of the three hundred vanguard cavalry only ignited the surging anger in the hearts of the Golden Wolf-headed General!

"This is a sneak attack!!"

General Golden Wolf Head immediately gave his own judgment: "Those hateful Roland people, those timid Tulips bastards, they sneaked into our warriors!!"

It must be admitted that in addition to anger, the Golden Wolf-headed General actually felt a faint feeling of relief in his heart.

Yes!

No matter what, the enemy still appears!

Although it feels very pleasant to drive straight into the road, it is empty and has gained nothing, and it still makes all the grassland people feel heavy in their hearts. They leave their hometowns and travel thousands of miles away, not to be there for armed parades.

They are here to conquer and rob! They are invaders!

But it has been more than ten days since I arrived at the Tulips' territory, but the warriors' scimitars have not stained a drop of blood from the enemy!

Not to mention human blood, there is not even the blood of livestock!

Although everyone explains it with the reason that "the Tulip family is a coward, and the Rolands are too cowardly." After all, not everyone is a fool.

Some people will always think something is wrong... The performance of the Tulips family is too far from the legendary reputation, right?

Yes, the Tulips were not resisting, and they evacuated thoroughly.

But we didn't get any results!

There is no wealth, no food, no livestock, no plunder of people and slaves.

What have we obtained? The land under our feet? But the land cannot be taken away!

No matter what, although the losses of these three hundred vanguard cavalry were angering, at least... the Tulips finally appeared! They finally began to resist.

Three hundred cavalrymen, just die if they die! This time there are more than 100,000 grassland warriors coming to the east!

General Jinlangtou quickly calmed down and then issued his own order: Cross the river!!

...

Crossing the river?

This is not easy for grassland people.

Although this is just a not-wide canal.

However, because the water source of Loulan Lake was introduced, although the canal was not wide, it was deep enough.

The deepest place is more than three meters - this was measured by the cavalrymen with wooden sticks tied with stones and threw them down.

For the grassland people, what they are most not good at is to make various fortifications - this is not the traditional way of war for the grassland people.

The traditional way of war among the grassland people is that everyone gathers men from their own tribes, rides a horse, and then sets up on an empty grassland to carry out a tide-like charge and fight!

Scimitar vs. scimitar, teeth vs. teeth!

Siege?

Defend the city?

Manufacturing fortifications?

Crossing the river? Making a pontoon bridge?

This is definitely the shortcoming of the grassland people.

Even such a not-wide canal.

However, General Golden Wolf Head had tens of thousands of troops after all, so he soon found a solution.

There are many abandoned water conservancy facilities and workshops next to the river bank. He asked the warriors to tear off these things, take out wood, throw them into the canal, and in a very short time, a floating bridge could be built.

But just when the grasslands on the west bank were busy, some movement also appeared on the east side of the canal.

Several teams of Tulip's cavalry came from a distance - this immediately made the grassland people excited.

Many grassland warriors began to wave scimitars to the other side through the canal, making intimidating roars.

There are also grassland warriors who pick up their bows and shoot at the opposite shore.

The Tulips' army on the other side did not have too many troops, and there were only about a thousand people.

These are not traditional cavalry, to be precise. They are archers riding horses.

The Tulips' army was well-equipped, and everyone wore light and strong leather armor. Their saddles were hung with bows and four quivers on their straps.

On the road, dozens of carriages rolled in the dust.

These Tulips' army simply ignored the provocations of the grassland people on the other side, and even turned a blind eye to the sporadic bow and arrow attacks of the grassland people.

They stood far away from the shore and stood outside the range of the prairie people's riding bows - the riding bows carried by cavalry were small and convenient, but their biggest weakness was the insufficient range.

More than three hundred meters away, the arrow began to become soft and weak.

The soldiers of the Tulips began to operate in an orderly manner.

They dismantled the dozens of carriages on the other side.

Both sides of the canal are busy, and the grassland people are obviously scattered and efficiently underground: they are busy waving their scimitars to cut down wood from the water conservancy facilities and workshops, trying to throw them into the canal to create a floating bridge. But most people are impatient, and they have to be distracted to roar at the opposite side and make aimless roars, and some people will not help but shoot at the opposite side.

It seems lively, but in the eyes of the Tulips army on the other side...

"Are those guys monkeys?"

A soldier from the Tulip family couldn't help asking.

No one answered him! What answered him was a whip from the superior!

"Don't talk nonsense! Do your work!"

The Tulips' strict military discipline made their work silent and rapid.

Soon, dozens of carriages were dismantled and turned into a row of scattered stone tools little by little.

What was brought to the carriage were rows of black jars.

When the last catapult was assembled, the pedestal bridge of the grassland people seemed to have only been completed by less than one-third.

At this time, the Tulips began to attack!

The Tulips' army began to line up, and the soldiers in the first row raised a row of high shields to form a shield wall. Then the soldiers hid behind the shield wall and slowly advanced towards the river bank!

This action aroused strong reaction from the grassland people. More and more grassland warriors who were working had put down their work, rushed to the shore, picked up their bows and shot at the other side.

This action did not bring much effect.

Most of the arrows hit the shield wall, making only jingling sounds.

The Tulips' shields formed a square array similar to the shell of a turtle. They advanced to the shore - after reaching the effective range of the greatest threat.

The Tulips' family began to fight back!

After a sharp whistle, the Tulips' shield square suddenly lifted the shield above, revealing the archer hiding under the shield!

These archers occupy dense and neat places, and have already made all preparations. When the shield was raised, a dense rain of arrows roared out!

The two sides shot against each other through the canal, and finally only proved one thing: the most basic common sense in the introductory course of the Roland Academy: archers can only achieve the most effective killing when they are scattered in a row.

The prairie people's bow shooting is scattered and unorganized. The Tulips have completed a wave of standard volleys! The coverage area and shooting density can almost be included in the general standards of textbooks!

After the first wave of scattered shots, the grassland people on the west bank made screams one after another. I don’t know how many grassland people were shot into arrows and fell to the ground, screams of warriors, and howls of pain from the warriors...

The most terrifying thing is that the shooting coverage of the Tulip House is far beyond the shore.

The archer's shooting made the effective range of the bow and arrow far exceed that of the grassland people. Even the Golden Wolf-Head General standing behind the team was baptized by arrow rain!

Even though the guards around them raised their shields to resist in time, many guards around the Golden Wolf-headed General were still caught in the arrow!

Most grassland warriors are in trouble - equipment like shields is rare on the grassland! Only leaders like General Golden Wolf Head will equip their personal guards.

As for ordinary grassland warriors, they can have a scimitar and a set of flat leather armor, which is already considered a first-class hero.

The Tulips' attacks were cold and cruel. The prairie people's bows and arrows also caused sporadic damage. However, even if someone was occasionally caught by the arrow, he would only make a short scream and would soon be dragged down by his companions around him. He quickly dragged out of the dangerous area, and there were special logistics medical officers for emergency rescue.

The three square arrays of the Tulips family completed three consecutive waves of volleys in a very open manner.

After these three waves of scattered shots, no more grassland people dared to stand on the shore and shoot against the Tulips' army.

Countless corpses fell down by the river, including those with people and those with horses.

Moreover, there is another consequence that the ranks of the grassland people quickly loosened - facing the Tulips family's almost professional army-like qualities, the dense bows and arrows covered and shot, even the ranks of the grassland people understood that maintaining a dense team at this time would be a suicide.

The grassland people began to retreat, and they flocked to retreat toward the back.

And at this time... the tulips's stone catapult began to show its power!

Dozens of catapults began to eject.
To be continued...
