Realm of Power

Main text 344 Ambush (Part 2)

Keep your body steady and prepare to scatter! Captain Samor's crossbow convoy raised Nian Songfeng high. The firelight from the ground reflected on his face, which was red. His solemn eyes stared at the getting closer and closer black clouds, and the sound of horse hooves getting closer and closer turned into The thunder shook everything, and the earth trembled slightly under this power. To the left of the camp was a relatively narrow river beach, and the high hill to the north was on the side of this narrow strip of land.

"Attention, team! The target is 300 meters." While the ballista soldiers were still in a daze. The unique sonorous voice of the crossbow captain came from the side. Miao Erdian's cavalry, which had forcibly advanced, had already rushed into Jinmi. On the narrow river beach, there were black shadows shining with mail armor everywhere. The neighing of war horses and the silent killing were carried by the wind. The crossbowmen felt The river wind blowing towards my face was full of heat and blood.

"Gather your formation! Pass slowly." Because the entire river beach is like a long and narrow bottleneck, the thousands of Myerdian cavalry running at the front can only choose to slow down. Filch, the leader of the forward cavalry banner, shouted to his subordinates who were pouring into the river beach, "The people in the distance are The infantry camp was in flames.

The steaming flames dyed the entire sky blood red, and bright red fire pillars rose from time to time, accompanied by rumbling explosions. The unpleasant smell of burning and the shrill sound of fighting rushed towards us. Everything seemed as unreal as a dream. Although you can see it. The war there was unsatisfactory.

But Filch knew that the infantry who were fighting bloody battles with the enemy needed him, Lord Levins needed him, and behind him was a full regiment of cavalry. As long as they rushed in, they would be able to drive the Samors out of the camp.

I saw Rui Erdian's cavalry slowing down. The crossbow captain's eyes lit up at this moment. The river beach was already crowded with war horses, like a giant writhing monster whose body was restricted by the narrow river beach. You can only squeeze in in an awkward and slow way. Now is the best opportunity for the ballista to launch. Even with your eyes closed, you can shoot down a large area.

"Little shot." The captain of the crossbow carriage shouted, and the sharp sword in his hand suddenly swung down, "Beng, Beng." collapse. The powerful bowstring of the ballista brought a whistling sound of wind. Countless black images of locusts bursting from the horizon, black arrowheads covering the narrow sky,

"Little hiss. The dozen or so war horses in the front row seemed to have hit an invisible wall, and were instantly shot into a hornet's nest. Their front hooves lost their support and tumbled, throwing the knights above them heavily.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh. The black arrowheads were like a swarm of locusts rushing towards the wheat field, roaring and killing, slamming into the front of the cavalry. The powerful impact of the crossbow arrows caused the Miao Erdian cavalrymen and horses to roll on the ground. , the war horses with arrows stuck in them ran around uncontrollably, and the cavalry rolling on the ground were trampled into pieces by the chaotic horse hooves. The entire forward was in chaos.

"What's going on?" Filch, the commander of the Milidian Cavalry Banner, had blood-red eyes. Unexpectedly, the more than 300 elite cavalrymen who entered the narrow river beach were instantly turned into a pile of minced meat. Following the direction of the arrowhead, by the arrows, Under the bright firelight of the camp, Filch saw on the hill on the side, strange weapons were pouring arrows here. His men were constantly hit by arrows and fell down.

"Damn Samors! There is an ambush!" Filch reined in his horse, waved his command sword at the Gangerdian cavalry behind him, pointed at the hill, and shouted, "The first squadron goes to the side! Give me the enemy." Get rid of it”. A group of cavalry quickly separated from the queue and turned to the side to give way.

, "Attention, team! The target is 200 meters!" Seeing thousands of cavalry turning in his direction, the captain of the crossbow car turned pale, pointed the sword in his hand at the oncoming cavalry and shouted

. collapse! collapse! "The sound of the heavy bowstring of the ballista was like a taut drum being beaten violently, and the turning Yin'erdian cavalry was covered in black arrowheads. The men fell to their backs, but they still continued to attack the high hills on the side.

"The crossbow driver continues to load! The spear squadron is ready!" The crossbow driver saw that Yin Erdian's cavalry had rushed into the Rumi line. He took a five-meter-long spear from the hands of the soldiers behind him. Behind him were more than 300 heavily armed spearmen who were wearing armor. Samor's ballista squadron was generally equipped with one or two squadrons for close-quarters use. A heavy-armed spearman who can kill in person. Normally, he serves as a loader when shooting a ballista. Only when the enemy is close to him, he puts on heavy armor and fights with the enemy.

The war horses rumble! The earth is shaking 3 Hundreds of Samor's heavy spearmen have already laid out their formations. Although they are prepared to die in battle, the hand holding the horizontal spear is still trembling uncontrollably. Changgong is ready to block the attack! A loud shout came from the side of the high hill, and groups of Samor crossbowmen appeared from the darkness, squatting flat, like a long wall that suddenly appeared in the darkness, heavy infantry. The sound of the crossbow being pulled came faintly from the darkness, and it became more murderous and desolate, like a pair of invisible big hands that could slap the running cavalry into meat patties at any time.

. It's Lamorin's crossbow brigade! "The faces of the crossbowmen showed a look of astonishment, but they also felt a little happy in their hearts. More than a dozen heavy-duty crossbowmen wanted to guard this long and narrow road.

It's a bit difficult, as long as there is a slight problem with matching. The opponent's fat spoon ※ can rush up. When the time comes, you just think with your butt and know the consequences. Now that there is a team of crossbowmen to assist, the situation will be much better. No wonder I never saw the crossbowmen except for launching rockets just now. It turns out that Already lurking here.

"The whole team assaults and shoots!" Suddenly. A loud shout came from the flank, "Bang! Bang!" followed by a roar of crossbow arrows piercing the sky, and the Samor crossbows that had been lurking in formation suddenly rushed out of the darkness. He launched an assault shot at the oncoming cavalry, and the rapid sound of bowstrings was like heavy rain hitting the ground.

"Hiss, hiss!" The screams of the war horses mixed with the miserable howls of the cavalry came from a distance. The Gangerdian cavalry who turned around were completely stunned by the sudden crossbows. The roar of five heavy infantry crossbows, Let the advancing Yin Erdian cavalry fall like harvested wheat,

The crossbow soldiers rushed, squatted or stood, and the creaking sound of the bow strings was like a symphony of killing, stimulating the eardrums of all the crossbow soldiers. Although they were enemies and usually disliked each other, at this moment the crossbow soldiers We feel something warm in our hearts,

They knew that it took a lot of courage to launch a counterattack-style assault shot against a high-speed moving cavalry that was just a few meters away. It can even be said to be suicide to a certain extent, but these companions who usually compete with each other still rush out of the darkness without hesitation in order to cover their crossbow troops and rush towards the high-speed moving cavalry.

"If we can't hold it, brothers will die with eyes open!" The captain of the crossbow convoy suddenly remembered what the commander of the Salon Army said to all the crossbowmen before setting off. At that time, the crossbowmen thought he was talking about the important commander responsible for the assault. The infantrymen, now it seems wrong, I am not talking about the infantry, but the crossbowmen who have been lurking and acting as their own barrier at critical moments.

The advancing Yin Erdian cavalry were startled by the attacking Samor crossbowmen, and they were used to seeing infantry fleeing under their horses' hooves. This is the first time I have seen such a fierce enemy.

"Kill it!" Captain Tedras of the 1st Squadron took out the knight's shield from his vest, waved the long sword in his hand, and led more than 200 cavalry behind him to charge towards the Samor army array under the rain of arrows.

"Creak!" The sound of metal colliding could not be heard, and the war horse let out a shrill cry from the arrows. Tedras suddenly felt the war horse slump, and his whole body was thrown into the air by a huge force. With the corner of his eye, Tedras Dras saw that his beloved "Lightning" was covered with white arrowheads. There were more than a dozen densely packed arrows. The strong impact made the lightning roll forward.

Time slowed down at this moment, and the surrounding silence was terrifying. Tedras could even see "Lightning" forcefully punching the ground with his forelimbs at the moment before it tipped over, trying to protect his master with his favorite emergency stop. , but the huge force broke the front hoof. It cracked, exposing the white leg bones, and the huge body dragged a huge blood mark on the ground. "Bump!" The scene in front of him dropped rapidly, and Tedras felt that he had returned to the noisy battlefield, and his body hit the hard ground heavily. superior. A huge pain came, and there was a crisp cracking sound in the waist. The body completely lost consciousness. He could only open his bulging eyes. Lightning's body was lying half a meter away from him, and the body full of arrowheads was still twitching. ,

Tedras, who was unable to move, thought of the words of an old guard with a broken body when he was studying in Parahan, "In fact, death is not that terrible, it is just a moment, when it comes. You will know, just Like a feeling comes over you!"

"Haha, you are a squadron leader! I didn't expect me to be so lucky!" Soon, a charging Samor crossbowman found him with broken bones all over his body, and looked at him with joyful eyes for a while. Then he used a crossbow dagger to make up for it, cut off his head and tied it around his waist.

"Kill!" The sound of fighting coming from the camp made Filch extremely anxious. The first squadron that split off from the side also encountered a strong blockage. Facing the crossbowmen who launched an attack, the cavalry troops of the first squadron not only did not advance, but instead They were forced back, leaving a pool of corpses on the side.

"Samor will win! Samor will win!" The shouts came from the hills. Filch's face seemed to be painted with a layer of paint. There was an ambush behind the poisonous troops. The cunning of Samor's army made this An orthodox Ruidian knight felt distressed and depressed. The Myridian cavalry on the riverbank had begun to disperse into groups. Dozens of squads launched a death-like charge against this narrow stretch of land, which was no more than a meter long. The arrows of the ballistae were like a dense net, the sound of strong bowstrings brought bursts of black raindrops, and countless war horses overturned. On the ground, the corpses of the cavalry were everywhere, and the blood stained the gravel on the river beach.

It’s almost the end of the year, and there are so many inspections and the like that there have been no updates for two days. I would like to express my humble gratitude to all those who support Baozi.
