Countless crossbow arrows were fired densely from above and in front. In an instant, the square was filled with screams and people were jumping on their backs. The power of the crossbows within fifty steps could penetrate ordinary armor. The skitarii were wearing nothing but a black coat.
There was nothing left except the robe. How could a flesh and blood body resist the shooting of this powerful crossbow? Blood splattered on the bodies of more than a hundred cult bandits in the front row, and blood mist rose. One after another, their bodies were struck by the diamond-shaped shoulders of the crossbow arrows.
It penetrates and blood spurts out from the blood tank on one side of the diamond.
"ah!"
"Ouch!"
"My mother."
The screams resounded through the night sky, and people in the square fell on their backs and howled to the sky. Just like cutting wheat, the hundreds of religious bandits who rushed in front all fell to the ground in the blink of an eye. Some died immediately, and some wailed and rolled around in misery.
Called Lianlian.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
The crossbow arrows still came like a shower, and the second wave of strikes came a few breaths later, and more than 80 people were cleared out of the square. Everything happened in a short period of time, and they were still alive and kicking.
The cult bandits were shouting and charging more than ten breaths ago, but the next moment they have become a meaningless body that has lost its soul.
Under such killings, how could the Skitarii not be afraid? They turned around and ran back. Their speed was a little faster than when they charged. Scattered crossbow arrows chased them from behind, knocking down more than a dozen religious bandits, and then stopped.
If the distance is too far, the power of the repeating crossbow cannot be exerted. Because it has a continuous firing mechanism and is a short crossbow arrow without the long shaft and tail of a normal arrow, the launch relies entirely on rapid kinetic energy, which is lost beyond a certain distance.
In addition to stability and strength, the disadvantages are quite obvious. Therefore, after the opponent escapes, there is no need to waste precious crossbow arrows.
Qian Dezhang was dumbfounded. He had not expected such a ferocious blow from the opponent. When he saw his own men falling down like leeks, he knew something was going to be bad. After the Skitarii were defeated in shock, they counted their numbers.
, nearly two hundred people were killed or injured. In a short time of less than a cup of tea, only six hundred of the eight hundred people were left.
That's all. The key is that if they charge a few more times, they may all be shot dead by the opponent. What's deplorable is that the skitarii they brought only have one scimitar in each hand and no other equipment.
"You can't charge like this. The other party is an officer and soldier, and they obviously have repeating crossbows. The few hundred of us are not enough for them to kill. Qian Hujiao, you have to find a way." A small leader said in panic.
Qian Dezhang nodded and said: "It's true that you need a shield to block arrows, but it's a pity that we don't have one."
"What are you afraid of if you don't have a shield? Don't ordinary people have door boards and bed boards at home? Just use them to block arrows." The bandits said one after another.
Qian Dezhang frowned. He had tried his best to oppose disturbing the people, but now he had to do it. He had no choice but to do it because of the situation.
Qian Dezhang gave an order, and the bandits rushed into the nearby residents' homes, kicked down the doors, grabbed things, and started making trouble. For a while, the people in the nearby homes were crying and wailing. When they were removing the door boards and bed boards, the bandits couldn't help but take advantage of them.
, searching for property. As a result, several common people clashed with them. The religious bandits mercilessly slashed and killed seven or eight common people with their swords.
When Qian Dezhang learned about this, he shed two drops of crocodile tears. Once upon a time, he was determined to serve the country and bring peace to the people. Now all this has gone with the wind, and he no longer has such an opportunity. He has taken the wrong path.
, then you can only go wrong.
The cult bandits snatched hundreds of door panels, bed boards, and even dozens of pot lids. Everything that could block arrows was put to use. Once again, the cult bandits started carrying these strange shields.
The second charge.
Don't tell me, these things are really useful. The repeated crossbows of the officers and soldiers are really helpless against these simple shields. But there is a sound like a heavy rain, and the door panels and bed boards are full of crossbow arrows, but they have no effect on the rear teaching staff.
The bandits had no choice. The crossbow arrows could only penetrate the door and bed boards at most, but they could not injure the bandits hiding behind them. It was not until they advanced within thirty steps that the strength of the crossbow arrows increased, and they exploded several wooden doors and some pots.
Covered with a shield, but its lethality was really limited, and it only shot and killed less than twenty religious bandits.
Ma Bin and Sun Dayong were extremely anxious, but there was nothing they could do. When the arms were at odds with each other, there was nothing they could do. Although these bandits were not shield soldiers in the strict sense, their restraint on the crossbowmen was quite obvious.
The crossbow cannot cause a large number of kills to them, so it will be useless.
"Master Ma, I think we should make a last-ditch effort. By the time they rush up, it will be too late. We have been delaying it for a while. I suggest that we rush forward and fight hand-to-hand. There is no other way." Sun Dayong said calmly.
said the voice.
Ma Bin sighed and said: "This is the only way. It's a pity that the brothers who were implicated also lost their lives. I really feel guilty in my heart."
Sun Dayong smiled and said: "Why do you say such things, sir? You are indifferent to life and death, and you just want peace of mind. Being able to make such a big deal with Master Ma here today is enough to shock the world, and you will die in a grand manner."
Ma Bin laughed loudly and said: "That's right, Brother Sun, let's be companions again under the spring, and kill him, the little devil of Hell, until he pisses himself off. Hahaha."
Sun Dayong smiled and said: "Okay, let's do this."
Ma Bin was wearing a whistle, picked up his long knife, jumped out of the fortification bunker, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, charge with me. Kill one to get enough money, kill two to earn one. The brothers at the gate of the city can set fire, and the brothers on the tower
, you can get down by cutting off the ropes of the suspension bridge."
After Ma Bin said loudly, he took the lead and rushed towards the religious bandits who were slowly approaching 20 steps away. All the officers and soldiers also threw away their crossbows and drew their swords and rushed out. An officer and soldier rushed into the city gate and threw the torch into the city.
The firewood piled near the gate suddenly burst into flames. The soldiers on the tower slashed two thick cables with their swords and rushed down.
This is the last resort. Burn the city gate so that it cannot be closed. Cut the thick cables of the suspension bridge so that the suspension bridge cannot be retracted. This also means the last fight of life and death. Everyone understands that this is for everyone to die in battle.
The final preparations are made for this.
Ma Bin rushed to the front of the bandits with a few quick steps. The bandits were holding the door panel against Ma Bin. Ma Bin jumped up with a roar and kicked a door panel with both feet. A strong force pushed the door panel.
The several cult bandits who were holding the door panel were knocked over backwards. Ma Bin broke into the gap, and the long knife in his hand rose and fell. After the cold light flashed, several cult bandits died immediately.
"Kill them all." Qian Dezhang shouted from behind at the top of his lungs.
The religious bandits threw down their "shields" one after another and fought with the officers and soldiers who rushed up.
Ma Bin has strong skills, with a long sword in his right hand flashing, and a golden finger tiger in his left hand. While killing a cult bandit with one knife, he smashed the jaw of a cult bandit with his left hand. This finger tiger is really domineering.
, Ma Bin is so powerful that he can't bear the impact of a normal punch on anyone, let alone carrying this Vajra-fingered Tiger. He can kill an enemy with just one punch, which is extremely ferocious.
Sun Dayong is not weak. At this moment, he no longer has any reservations. He uses his overlord kick from the very beginning. The long knife in his hand and the swift and violent kicks of his legs are equally invincible. But as long as he is beaten by his
A kick would cause blood to spurt out wildly, bones and internal organs to be broken, and even death would become a disability.
"Master Ma, your fist is very hard. You broke the bones with just one punch. What is that thing you have on your hand? It's the first time I've seen it."
"Hahaha, this thing is called a finger tiger. It was given to me by Mr. Lin from your family. It's a long story. If we have any chance of going back alive, I'll tell you about it. Speaking of which, your legs are better than mine.
This fist is much harder. How about asking Mr. Lin from your family to make a diamond gauntlet for you in the future? If you lift it with your kick, you might kick out the person's intestines."
The two of them faced the enemy side by side, one on the left and the other on the right, not forgetting to talk and laugh. From the moment the two of them rushed into the group of cult bandits, in less than a cup of tea, they had already taken care of fifteen or sixteen people, almost with a few moves.
Kill one person with unparalleled ferocity and bravery.
All the guardsmen were carefully selected and strong, and they were also good at martial arts. They were facing this group of bandits at the moment, and they were quite at ease. As soon as they came up to fight, they killed more than twenty people, and they were so impressive.
Quite fierce.
However, as the saying goes, two fists are difficult to defeat with four hands, and a hero cannot withstand a large number of people. At best, Ma Bin's side only has more than 30 people, while the other party has nearly 600 people, a difference of more than 20 times. If we make a simple comparison, then
Even if one person has to fight twenty people, even if they are skilled in martial arts and carefully selected elite soldiers, it will definitely be difficult to match. After gaining the upper hand for a short time at the beginning, everyone soon fell into a hard fight.
The Baijiao bandits surrounded Ma Bin and others, and their weapons were coming at them one after another. There were weapons slashing at them from every direction at every moment. Even gods could not resist this attack.
kind of attack.
Soon, the four soldiers moved carelessly and were separated from each other. They were surrounded by dozens of religious bandits. A moment later, the four soldiers were stabbed in succession and their bodies were cut into pieces randomly. The bandits found them during the actual battle.
Finding a way, they used a collective charge to cut up the formation of the Forbidden Army, cutting and surrounding small groups of Forbidden Army soldiers, and then chopped them into meat paste. Even Ma Bin, Sun Dayong and others killed several
There are ten bandits, but every time one of our side loses one, the pressure on others will be greater.
More and more people fell down, and more than half of the thirty-odd people were lost in the time it took to burn incense. Sixteen people were killed and seven were injured. Only a dozen people hugged each other tightly in the middle, fighting to the death.
After a while, there were only twelve Forbidden Soldiers left. The two brothers brought by Sun Dayong were also killed by the gangsters. Ma Bin and Sun Dayong were already covered in blood, and Sun Dayong was stabbed in the leg.
He was already limping when he walked. That was because a bandit had slashed his leg before he died. At this moment, after continuous exertion, the leg was already swollen.
"Brother, you hide next to me. If you want to die here, I must take one step before you, otherwise I will feel bad." Ma Bin gasped and pulled the long knife out of the neck of a bandit, and kicked
He kicked over the corpse and said loudly.
Sun Dayong smiled and said: "Thank you, sir. If you die sooner or later, you will die, so there is no need to fight. We are already good enough. We have killed more than two hundred people. We are enough to support you."
Ma Bin smiled and said: "Yes, I have killed more than two hundred people. I have been delayed for a stick of incense. It is a pity that the army has not arrived yet. But we have no regrets. Brothers, let's kill a few more
, strive to kill three hundred people."
"Okay. Killing three hundred of them is equivalent to one of the thirty or so of our brothers fighting ten. Even if they all die here today, the world should know that we are brave." Sun Dayong nodded in praise.
The two people jumped up and shouted, using up their last strength, they rushed towards the religious bandits beside them. Behind them, two guardsmen were stabbed in succession and fell in a pool of blood.
