After Aqina shouted, he waved to the Condor Warriors behind him.
The northern barbarian named Duolu rushed toward the county seat on horseback.
Upon seeing this, Ming Dechang quickly ordered the soldiers guarding the city to fire arrows.
All the soldiers bent their bows and set arrows and shot at Dolu who rushed over.
However, it was difficult to hit targets that were moving at high speed, and the soldiers guarding the city were sparse and lacked training. The arrows fired sparsely could not hurt the enemy at all.
On the contrary, two soldiers who defended the city just showed up and were about to bend their bows, but they were shot directly in the throat, and blood spattered on the spot.
This completely panicked the people who were assisting in the defense. For a while, some people were already planning to escape from the city wall.
The soldiers guarding the city no longer dared to lean out and shoot arrows, so they could only squat close to the battlements to protect themselves.
"Dagan people, why don't you dare to show your face?"
"What about your arrogance last night? As expected, you are still shy!"
Dolu was provocative outside the city and made some indecent actions from time to time.
Ming Dechang looked at Huang Shan with a pale face, his hands trembling slightly.
"My dear nephew, now that there is no cover of night, the shooting skills of the Northern Barbarians can be brought to full play."
"In this situation, we are no match for the Northern Barbarians in terms of archery skills."
Just as Ming Dechang was speaking, the rope of the Daqian flag hanging on the wooden pole was suddenly shot off.
Daqian's flag immediately fell from the top of the city.
In an instant, the northern barbarians outside the city burst into enthusiastic cheers.
Aqina chuckled and turned to look at Heduo, his expression full of pride.
"Heduo, I just told these Dagan people to huddle behind the city wall without the cover of night."
"If it weren't for these turtle shells of theirs, our Northern Barbarians would have defeated Daqian long ago."
Heduo glanced at the proud Aqina and began to admonish him seriously.
"Aqina, don't underestimate your enemy."
"Daqan..."
Before Heduo could finish his words, Aqina interrupted him.
"I see!"
After saying this, Aqinada immediately stepped forward to greet Duolu who had returned, leaving Heduo alone for the time being.
Heduo took a deep breath and then rode up to follow Aqina.
The atmosphere on Huangshan's side was naturally opposite to the cheers and excitement on Beiman's side.
The people were trembling and the soldiers were afraid.
Even Ming Dechang had a sad look on his face.
"What should I do now!?"
"The Northern Barbarians are so arrogant and domineering. If their majesty cannot be destroyed, sooner or later there will be chaos in the city due to fear."
Just as Huang Shan was about to speak, Captou Zhao on the side suddenly said, "By the way, sir, we have Huang Yingxiong's strange weapon!"
Seeing that what he wanted to say was said by Capt. Zhao, Huang Shan nodded.
"Uncle Ming, my nephew also believes that his repeated crossbow can destroy the majesty of the Northern Barbarians."
Ming Dechang looked at the two of them after hearing this, with a look of helplessness on his face.
"Forget it, let's try it."
I heard Ming Dechang's tone of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
Huang Shan just chuckled.
Maybe his shooting skills are not as good as those of the Northern Barbarians.
But he can use the number of crossbow bolts fired in a short period of time to replace the accuracy of his shooting skills.
It is not an easy time to continuously bend the bow and shoot arrows on horseback.
However, I just observed that the Northern Barbarian Condor Warriors used hard bows.
The power of a hard bow is great, but it also consumes a lot of energy.
The burden on the arms after continuous shooting is also not small.
In comparison, my repeating crossbow is based on the simplest lever principle, and it takes a small amount of effort to do a big job.
The Northern Man's Condor Warriors are definitely not as durable as me.
Huang Shan and Zhao Captou looked at each other.
"Zhao Captou, I need to prepare more crossbow arrows, and I need to repair the crossbow arrows so that my crossbow can be used."
...
Half a day later.
With the help of the people, Huang Shan modified more than fifty crossbow arrows.
However, the shouts and provocations of the Northern barbarians outside the city never stopped, and the arrows never stopped.
Several careless civilians were hit by thrown arrows. Although it was not fatal, it also severely damaged morale.
Huang Shan glanced at the more than fifty crossbow arrows at hand and thought they were almost enough, so he looked at Ming Dechang and Zhao Captou.
Zhao Captou immediately climbed up the wooden pole and hung the repaired Daqian flag on the flagpole.
Seeing Daqian's flag rising from the top of the city, Aqina chuckled disdainfully.
"Doru!"
There was no need for Aqina to say anything. When his name was called, Duolu immediately got on his horse and headed towards the county town to kill.
Huang Shan saw the Northern Barbarian Condor Warriors with superb archery skills rushing towards him on horseback, and silently estimated the distance in his heart.
At this time, everyone on the city wall also had their hearts in their throats.
It's now!
Huangshan suddenly leaned out and fired a crossbow bolt at Dolu who was moving at high speed.
The first arrow shot missed and stuck straight in the ground.
Dolu reacted and immediately shot the Huangshan tree at the top of the city with his backhand.
However, Huangshan was already prepared, and several people held shields to protect Huangshan.
The arrow shot by Dolu hit the shield.
At the same time, Huang Shan's second and third arrows were already screaming in the air.
Dolu dodged the second arrow, but accidentally let his beloved horse hit the third arrow.
The war horse whined in pain, while Duolu looked distressed and angry. He fired another arrow at Huangshan who was shooting at the top of the city.
However, he only managed to shoot two arrows, and the beloved horse under his crotch was hit by an arrow again.
The war horse couldn't help but whine, and then its running speed slowed down significantly.
Dolu clamped the horse's belly tightly, trying to urge the horse to run, but the horse had reached the limit of its endurance.
Seeing that his horse was dying, Duolu simply grabbed a handful of arrows and jumped off the horse.
The Huangshan at the top of the city had already finished shooting the first round and was replenishing the crossbow bolts behind the shield.
Dolu couldn't help being furious when he saw this. He grabbed a heavy arrow and shot it at the shield at the top of the city.
Huang Shan had just finished loading the crossbow arrows when he saw that the soldier covering him was hit by an arrow in the chest, and the shield in his hand was also shot through.
Huang Shan glanced at the trembling soldier who was at the end of his life, gritted his teeth and exposed himself again.
In an instant, the eyes of Dolu at the foot of the city and the Huangshan tree on the city wall collided.
The hard bows and repeating crossbows in both hands were fired at the same time.
In the flash of lightning, an arrow flew past Huangshan's neck, leaving a slight blood mark.
Duolu at the bottom of the city was hit by several arrows and fell to the ground.
"good!"
Seeing the Northern Man Condor Warriors being shot dead, Ming Dechang pounded the battlements hard.
The soldiers and people guarding the city also burst into loud cheers.
"Come on, hurry up and rescue Dolu!"
When Aqina saw his warriors falling to the ground after being hit by arrows, he immediately ordered his troops to rescue them.
Several Northern Barbarian warriors rode towards Dolu who fell to the ground. This time they picked up Dolu and left without daring to stay any longer.
Even so, some of them were injured by arrows.
However, this time it was not the Huangshan Liannu who showed off his power, but the inspired soldiers who defended the city.
