Before Murong Lin finished speaking, he heard a burst of sound piercing the air. He frowned, picked up the riding shield with his left hand, and waved it in front of him. Several long arrows struck the shield with one swing. It landed gently on the ground, and not a single arrow hit the shield.
The cavalry around them also waved their shields, and dozens of feather arrows were knocked to the ground. A burst of laughter broke out from around them: "How dare you charge into the formation with such bow power!"
More than ten riders hung their shields on their saddles, picked up their big bows and were about to shoot. Murong Lin said in a deep voice: "Wait a minute, don't fight back, let the enemy continue to charge."
Everyone was stunned. A captain named Murong Wa opened his eyes and said, "Young Master, why don't you fight back? The enemy cavalry should be no more than a hundred steps away from us. We can definitely shoot them."
Murong Lin curled up his lips and said, "The enemy is hiding in the sand, probably because they want to test the strength of our army. With the strength of the Beifu army, they can't move more than a hundred steps, and their bows can't hit the shields. Everyone holds their position firmly. No shooting is allowed unless the enemy is within fifty steps!"
Murong Wa gritted his teeth: "What if it's fifty steps closer?"
Murong Lin's eyes flashed coldly: "As long as the enemy is not attacking in a group, give me precise shots. One arrow must knock down a knight!"
All the knights agreed in unison, and everyone drew their bows without firing, pointing their arrows directly at the smoke that was sixty or seventy steps away.
Suddenly, more than thirty cavalry rushed out of the smoke and dust, rushed to a distance of about sixty steps, suddenly turned sideways, turned sideways, and fired another burst of bows and arrows at the immobile Yan cavalry.
"Poof" and "pop", the sound of arrows hitting the armor was endless, and some of the knights of the Yan army also let out bursts of humming. Obviously, this was the performance of the arrows penetrating through the armor and hitting the skin. These The heavy cavalry of the Beihai King's Guards all have double-layered iron armor on their vital points, and the stainless steel armor also provides good protection for ordinary non-lethal parts. They can be faced with strong bows of three to four stones at about sixty steps. As long as the shot does not hit the front door, it will not affect the combat effectiveness. Some of the sergeants standing in the front row had three or four feather arrows stuck in their bodies. They still held the bow with both hands and aimed tightly at the incoming enemy, motionless.
Murong Lin slowly raised his hand. In front of him, fifty steps away, there was a signal arrow with a white tail. As long as the Jin cavalry crossed this line, it would fall with his hand. If it falls, thousands of arrows will be fired.
However, the Jin army riders at the front turned sideways and galloped horizontally. The horses almost followed the fifty-step line, barely passing by. More than thirty riders rode horizontally first, and then Turning around and firing back, within a minute or two, more than a hundred arrows were shot into the Yan army's cavalry formation. This time, four or five sergeants were shot in the face or neck, and fell down from their horses. Behind the formation, The civilian husbands quickly carried the fallen sergeants back, and their vacated positions were taken up by the following knights. The entire formation was still tightly integrated, with no flaws visible.
Murong Lin's lips curled up and he put down his hand. He Lanmin's voice rang in his ears: "General Xiaolin, what's wrong with you? Do you just let the enemy shoot at us like this?"
Murong Lin turned around and glanced at He Lanmin, who was dressed in a soldier uniform. At this moment, she was wearing leather armor and covering her face, leaving only a pair of sparkling eyes. However, in her beautiful eyes at this moment, It's full of anxiety, you can even see it clearly, she's been frowning now.
Murong Lin said: "Obviously, the enemy is trying to lure them. They also saw our fifty-step signal arrow and knew that they would fight back after crossing the line, so they came to the line with shame. You see... "
It was too late to say, but soon, suddenly, a sound of breaking through the sky resounded, and more than sixty cavalry rushed out of the smoke and dust again. At a distance of sixty or seventy steps, facing the Yan army's cavalry formation, another A burst of shooting.
This time, because the cavalry struck directly from the smoke and dust in a straight line, instead of shooting across the line like before, the power and range of this batch of arrows were much stronger than the ones before.
A wave of arrows flew past, and more than ten riders in the first row of the Yan army were hit by arrows and fell to the ground. Some of the war horses were shot through their foreheads, killing them with one arrow. The knights on their seats were also overturned to the ground. Condition. The military formation, which had been motionless just now, also fell into a small chaos. Even the war horses began to scream and jump wildly, causing the knights on the horses to yell and control their strings, so as not to cause the formation to collapse. Scattered. .
As this burst of arrow rain came, the sixty or so cavalrymen also rushed through the white signal arrows. They had no intention of slowing down, and they still spread out in the front, facing the Yan army's cavalry formation in a straight formation. , riding a horse and charging wildly.
Murong Lin's hand fell hard, and he himself picked up the big bow in his hand and shot an arrow at the Jin cavalry who was charging first.
With a "pop" sound, the arrow shot directly through the neck of the Jin army knight, and a blood arrow spurted out from his throat, because the arrow passed directly through his neck, and the blood it brought out was The arrow almost followed the arrow branch and shot backwards. The rider on the horse had already been killed by the arrow, but he still held the horse's rein tightly with his hand and kept his body upright. He continued to move forward until the horse galloped. After taking more than twenty steps, he landed on the ground.
As Murong Lin killed the enemy with one arrow, all the armored cavalrymen in the Yan Army's cavalry formation also started shooting. Almost a hundred arrows were shot out in an instant. Five arrows shot at the same target. Only one of them met the opponent. The more than twenty cavalrymen who were rushing in the front line all fell to the ground and died. These armored cavalrymen with amazing arm strength shot at these targets wearing only leather armor at a distance of fifty steps. It was almost like completing the usual target shooting training. ,with no doubt.
He Lanmin hid behind Murong Lin, holding a shield in both hands and placing it in front of her. She gritted her teeth and said, "Are these Jin troops here to die? What, why don't you retreat?"
Murong Lin frowned: "It's really strange. They seemed to be tempting us to attack before, but after they failed to do so, they..."
Before he finished speaking, another burst of arrows struck. It was the Jin army riders who were still alive. Taking advantage of the time when the Yan army armored cavalry were changing arrows and rewinding, they fired again. This time they had already rushed to Li Yan. Less than thirty steps away from the front line of the army, the sharp roar shocked the hearts of every Yan army: "Kill Hu, kill Hu!"
Murong Lin gritted his teeth, threw away his bow, picked up his riding shield, and waved it in the air, blocking the arrow for himself and He Lanmin behind him. When the arrow hit the shield this time, it shook his arm. The position was sore and numb, and the arrows were firmly nailed to the shield. There were constant groans all around. Knights of the Yan army were falling from their horses after being hit by arrows, while the killing sounds of the Jin army's cavalry had reached twenty paces. Outside: "Hugou, take your life!"
