When Hu Biao and other veterans suddenly started to attack, they all went into rapid-fire mode.
In addition, Ban Chao and others were absolutely stronger than them in archery.
Although there were only a dozen or so archers in total, at the gate, it still looked like arrows were raining down.
In the blink of an eye, the first twenty or so people who rushed out were all shot to the ground.
At such a close distance, the arrows on these people were shot extremely deep; it can be said that even if they were not killed temporarily, they were seriously injured and their combat effectiveness was definitely lost.
Upon seeing this, Team Zheng immediately felt indescribably happy.
He couldn't hold back anymore, and immediately shouted: "Good shot, shoot these grandsons to death, and make you look down on me, I, I..."
The cheers from the mouth of the rookie in charge were interrupted by Hu Biao, who rushed towards the street and kicked him before he could finish his shouting.
While kicking him, Hu Biao hurriedly cursed:
"Stop being pushy, reload the crossbow quickly and maintain the intensity of the arrow rain~"
The reason why Hu Biao, who was busy with his busy schedule, took the time to kick and curse like this was because he had a very clear understanding of the current battle situation:
Don't look at it now. Because of this, everything they did tonight went smoothly, and they seemed to be very successful.
The fire has been successfully lit, and the opponent has responded as they expected.
So much so that with just a rain of arrows, all the twenty-odd Huns who rushed out were knocked down; so that the subsequent personnel who tried to rush out were shot down by another dozen or so Huns.
Seeing that something was not going well, the remaining Huns retreated like a tide and closed the door they had just opened.
But as long as these people don't want to be burned to death, they will definitely continue to rush out soon, and they will rush out at all costs.
The fighting will they unleashed in order to survive was far stronger than any opponent they had encountered before.
Now that the door is closed, we are just temporarily sorting out the formation, preparing equipment, etc.
Then he will rush out in one go, the kind that won't stop until death.
So, even though they have easily killed many opponents now, it is just a warm-up dish that has just begun, and the real difficult battle has not yet begun.
Hu Biao, who deeply understands this, really doesn’t feel that there is anything to be happy about...
There is no doubt that the Huns could not have allowed themselves to be burned alive in the fire without doing anything.
Amid the strong winds and the threat of rapidly spreading fire, the Huns unleashed an astonishing efficiency of action.
Even though they were separated by a high wall and gate, Hu Biao and others could still hear a burst of roaring and urging in a rapid voice from inside.
After only two or three minutes at most, the door that was hastily closed was opened again.
While the Huns were adjusting at this point, Hu Biao and the others naturally did not stop and made some preparations for battle.
Specifically, the team that was originally ambushing around the gate was turned into an arc-shaped defense line facing the gate.
The reason is very simple. On the one hand, such a formation can block everyone who rushes out of the door.
On the other hand, although the arrow rain with a group of Huns in the middle and being attacked from both sides is very lethal, if you accidentally miss it, you may accidentally injure your teammates on the opposite side.
No! Just as Lao Hei was quite proud of shooting down at least two Huns with three consecutive arrows, a crossbow arrow flew towards his head.
If it weren't for the inexplicable sense of danger that arose in his head just a second ago, he would instinctively shrink his head.
This deadly crossbow arrow summoned from the hands of an unknown rookie would be sent away to him on the spot.
Damn it! Ever since he entered the mission world, he, Lao Hei, has been prepared to die in the mission, but this method of death definitely does not include being shot to death by one of his own people.
So, after Lao Hei wiped his hands with cold sweat and cursed loudly from his mouth, Hu Biao hurriedly adjusted his formation.
As for the wounded Huns who fell to the ground after being hit by arrows just now.
They simply have no time or inclination to pay attention to them.
Because these unlucky guys who have lost their ability to move are no longer a threat at all. After being hit by them, they put on the bleeding groove arrows.
Soon, on this night with strong wind and fire, I will bleed to death quickly...

When the door was opened again, everyone's traces had been exposed. Since there was no need to hide one's body, there was no need for anyone to give orders this time.
So in an instant, more than twenty arrows were shot at the door and greeted him.
This time, also because of the extremely close distance, the crossbows and arrows that everyone called out basically missed the target; however, the results achieved were far inferior to the previous one.
This happened because the Huns had made certain targeted preparations.
For example, among the group of people currently rushing out, in the middle position, the Huns held two door panels of different sizes in their hands.
In the gaps on both sides, there were several leather shields held up.
Even with such protection, the Huns still couldn't block all the gaps; they still left a lot of bodies exposed.
Only the largest and thickest door panel can defend against all attacks and protect the people behind.
In addition, its smaller door panel and those leather shields cannot block the one-handed crossbow, which cannot be fired from less than 20 meters away.
They were shot straight through the back by powerful crossbow arrows that could penetrate plate armor.
Suddenly, amid the bursts of shrill screams, figures fell to the ground suddenly; in the current battle, if you encounter this kind of situation, you are basically doomed.
Because the other Huns, who were bent on rushing out at all costs, didn't care about the wounded on the ground and could still save them.
He just stepped on them without looking and would soon trample them to death alive.
In the following time, five or six Huns appeared on the field, standing against a thick door panel that was impossible to shoot through.
There was an unknown meaning coming from his mouth, a shrill roar like a wild wolf on his hand.
They rushed towards the arc-shaped defense line formed by them, desperate and crazy.
A little later, there were also many Huns holding leather shields in their hands. They also didn't care about their colleagues who were shot to the ground and rushed over with howling.
Mainly at this time, the fire field behind them was getting closer and closer to them.
To use a modern wisecracking saying, there is not much time left for these Huns...
"System, I wish you nothing but good luck in giving birth to a son! If gunpowder could be used, there would be no need for explosives, but a round of three-eyed blunderbuss would hit it, and the broken door panel would be broken. How could this happen?"
In such a critical situation, AT did not forget to complain in his heart.
Of course, as a senior member who joined the team in the first mission, the young white-collar worker has still developed his intuition for the battlefield.
Maybe if you ask him to explain it carefully, he won't be able to tell you anything for a while.
But I am quite sensitive to the rhythm of the battlefield and know how to respond.
So at the first moment, he threw away a walking bow in his hand and a few arrows that he had not finished shooting in time.
The left hand used the backhand to remove an iron-wrapped wooden shield from the back, and the right hand pulled out a Tang Hengdao from the left waist.
Because he knew that he was about to enter the most brutal close combat state.
Sure enough, at the moment when the white-collar worker had just picked up his weapon, orders from Ban Chao and Hu Biao sounded almost at the same time.
And although there are some differences in the words and wording of the two people's mouths, the content they posted can be said to be exactly the same:
"The crossbowmen continued to suppress and support shooting, while the others rushed forward and pushed the Huns back~"
