Uda's voice, mixed with the whirring bloody wind in the noisy battlefield, quickly spread around.

However, this symbolic speech had almost no effect.

Following the sound of horseshoes hitting the ground violently, Wang Lin led Su Yi and more than a hundred people and ran towards the rear of the Hu people!

In order to protect the trebuchet, the position of the trebuchet was located at the last position in the Hu army's formation.

However, near the trebuchet, there were very few troops responsible for guarding the trebuchet. This is not because there is a shortage of men in the Hu army, but because Daxia is defensive most of the time when facing the Hu army.

As for today, after setting up the formation, they only led more than a hundred people and rushed directly into the Hu people's military formation. This kind of formation was indeed unprecedented.

Just because this kind of behavior can be summarized in just two words, whether in the eyes of the Daxia army or the Hu people.

court death!

It was at this time that Wang Lin and others were spotted running towards the nearby trebuchet.

After seeing Wang Lin and others, they did not panic, but were stunned at first.

Then, there was a burst of laughter.

This kind of smile is not the same arrogant laugh as before, but a smile like when you are about to get a treasure.

Because looking at what Wang Lin and others were wearing in front of them, they didn't think they could be worn by ordinary soldiers.

Therefore, it can almost be concluded that the rushing team in front of them must be the elite among the elite in Daxia!

The Hu man in charge of operating the catapult pointed at Wang Lin and others in front of him and said excitedly: "Turn the muzzle immediately and kill these people. We will be the first success of this battle!"

Under his reminder, the barbarian people on the side obviously noticed the charging posture of Wang Lin and the others in front of them, and began to push the direction of the trebuchet even more excitedly.

"Turn! Turn! Turn!"

"Turn! Turn! Turn!"

After a while, the group of barbarians in front of them started shouting slogans. They began to yell in the wind, generally pressing their bodies against the trebuchet, and slowly turning the trebuchet's body.

I don’t know if it was the effect of the slogan. Although the trebuchet moved slowly, Wang Lin and others rushed over and encountered many obstacles. Therefore, when they came to a slightly closer position, the muzzle of the trebuchet had been turned around.

"Hahahaha, brothers, the one in the lead is so well-dressed, he must be that prince from Daxia."

"Brothers, watch how I beat him to pieces! When the time comes, we will take his robes together and go to the Shanyu to receive the reward!"

The man in charge of controlling the trebuchet raised his left thumb, closed his left eye and measured the position of Wang Lin and others who were getting closer and closer, and said with a smile.

However, what he didn't notice was that the leader Wang Lin's face was exuding a murderous aura!

"Prince Lin, what should we do now!"

Looking at the catapult that was gradually turning around in front of him, Zhang Chengxu looked nervously at Wang Lin beside him.

Although he almost completely believes in the Prince Lin in front of him now, if he doesn't come up with some solution in this situation, I am afraid that even the Great Luo Immortal will be turned into scum by this bombardment.

He came here to make great achievements, but he didn't want to be unjustly killed by this shot in a place like this.

"Prince Lin?"

Seeing that Wang Lin didn't speak, Zhang Chengxu couldn't help but glance at Wang Lin's position.

But it doesn't matter if you don't look at it. This look directly made Zhang Chengxu break out in a cold sweat. I saw Wang Lin in front of me with his bow and arrow drawn, and he was drawing the bow in the direction of the catapult.

Zhang Chengxu had been in the army for some time, how could he not know the effective range of bows and arrows.

Although the use of bows and arrows depends entirely on personal merit. But everything must be reasonable. For people like him, although if you pull the bow here, the arrow can indeed hit the location of the trebuchet, the accuracy cannot be guaranteed.

How could it be possible for someone like Prince Lin to enter the battlefield for the first time...

Before Zhang Chengxu could finish thinking this sentence in his mind, the bow and arrow in Wang Lin's hand buzzed fiercely.

Soon enough, between the lightning and flint, there was a black shadow flying straight towards the direction of the trebuchet.

On the side of the trebuchet, the barbarian man operating the trebuchet was still looking at the position of his thumb, roughly calculating Wang Lin's position.

At a certain moment, he finally shouted:

"ignition!!"

Ignition is a process specially required for this batch of trebuchets.

Just because of an unintentional move, they discovered that the power of this huge stone wrapped with countless flammable substances was even greater, so they put this powerful stone into use on the battlefield.

The originally huge boulder, after being soaked in various viscous flammable substances for dozens of days, can become a primitive bomb with a bad temper after being ignited.

Although the time of detonation is difficult to predict, a few seconds were enough for them to drive all the projectiles exuding the breath of death into the formation of the Daxia army.

However, this time, the imagined scene of cannonballs exploding among the crowd in Daxia did not appear.

On the contrary, with the sound of a sharp weapon cutting through the sky, the Hu man in charge of controlling the trebuchet suddenly felt that his vision went dark.

Then, there was a burst of intense pain, which radiated as his nerves exploded in his skull.

"ah!!"

He let out a cry of pain and stretched out his hand to stop the pain, only to find that a long thing was inserted into his eye socket.

At that moment, he understood what it was.

That was a sharp arrow from the hands of Prince Daxia Lin!

After realizing this, he screamed in pain again, fell to the ground and fainted.

Seeing the commander who controlled the catapult fall to the ground, the rest of the barbarians naturally panicked.

They immediately swarmed forward, trying to throw the flaming projectiles first.

What they didn't expect was that as soon as they approached the catapult, the burning boulder of the catapult already made an explosion.

The boulder wrapped in countless explosives was exploded and split into countless sharp small stones, flying in all directions!

Even behemoths like catapults were instantly blown to pieces by the power of the explosion.

At this time, the stalemate between the Hu people and the Daxia army had reached a fierce stage, but at this moment, the violent explosions coming from the rear of the Hu people's army undoubtedly attracted everyone's attention!

"What's going on at the rear?! Could it be that we fell into the Daxia people's trick?!"
