Chapter 45: Fierce Battle
Yunjia Zhuangzi was already in sight, and suddenly a violent explosion sounded three or four miles away in front of him. Two plumes of smoke rose into the air, and the thick black plumes of smoke stood out in the clear spring sky, and Batu hurriedly reined in the horse's head. The war horse under the crotch screamed sparsely, and its front hooves were raised high, almost throwing Batu off.
It must have been the scouts in front who discovered the enemy and were able to make them use firearms, proving that the enemy was powerful and numerous. Hou Ye said that firearms must not be used sparingly, talent is the most important, and firearms must be used first when encountering powerful enemies and a large number of enemies. An added advantage of this is that even if the battle is defeated, no firearms will enter the hands of the enemy.
"Array, signal." Batu commanded his men in a loud voice.
The Hun man immediately surrounded the carriage full of women and children in a ring, and looked around vigilantly with a sword in his hand. At the same time, a sharp whistle sounded. A powder bomb exploded in the sky, and although there were no brilliant fireworks to be seen in the daytime, a cloud of smoke hanging high in the sky still indicated the location of the team.
"Whoosh" A crossbow bolt shot out of the grass in the distance. The sound of "dang" hit the helmet of a Hun man, but fortunately, the Yun family's helmets were made of stainless steel. There is also a layer of wax on the outside of the helmet, and the lard is too disgusting. So Yun Xiao came up with the idea of waxing, which worked very well, and the smooth helmet couldn't get any flies on his feet.
The bolts only scratched the wax of the helmet and did not shoot through. It seems that the armor of the Yun family is still passable, and even so, the Hun man is scared. Look out through the hideous visor. A group of black dots was running towards the group in the grass on the side of the road. They ran like rabbits being picked up by dogs, and the speed was beyond human imagination.
"Shoot with bows and arrows, and rest assured that their crossbow arrows will not penetrate our armor. Shoot with arrows when you are far away, and use grenades when you are close. Damn, don't be frightened if you have the horses in control. ”
Batu cheered up his men, and it seemed that there would be a bloody battle today. casually grabbed a short spear from his back, which Yun Xiao saw that the Hun men were very skilled in throwing spears, so he specially built it for them. The tip of the spear is made of stainless steel, and it can pierce most armor when thrown at close range. The body of the spear is made of hard wood, which not only ensures the weight of the spear but also takes into account the cost.
The men in black were very flexible. Even at close range, you can dodge the bow and arrow. There are also some guys who can use their blades to shoot flying feathered arrows. From time to time, he also fired back with crossbow arrows.
However, the strength of their crossbow arrows was very poor, and even at a distance of a hundred paces, they still couldn't shoot through the Yun family's armor. In vain, he left a deep scratch on the armor.
The Huns are all good at archery, but the men in black opposite are obviously good at dodging arrows.
There were only five or six people in one shot. There were as many as fifty or sixty black-clothed people rushing up.
They flickered and quickly closed the distance between the two sides. Some people can run faster in order to reduce weight, and even throw away small round shields.
Many Hun men stuffed their bows into leather bags. Pulled out a black thing from his bag. When he wiped the horse's buttocks, green smoke came out. Then he threw it hard.
The sound of "boom" and "boom" explosions was endless, and those men in black were obviously very jealous of this thing. When they saw the black thing fall beside them, they hurriedly dodged, no matter how fast they dodged. After each boom, someone collapsed in a pool of blood.
The Huns were filled with gunsmoke opposite the Xiongnu man. Thick smoke enveloped the entire team. Thirty or forty paces on the opposite side, he could no longer see people clearly, and from time to time one or two crossbow arrows shot out of the smoke. This time the distance was apparently closer, and there were already crossbow arrows that could pierce the armor. From time to time, some of the Hun men let out a muffled snort, and several people had already been hit by arrows.
"They were very close, throwing grenades in the direction where the crossbow arrows were fired."
Batu shouted loudly in the Hun language, and the Hun man, who had stopped throwing bombs, began to throw crossbow arrows wherever they saw them.
"Hold on for a while, just hold on a little longer. Hou Ye will bring someone to save us, stabilize the formation, and hold on. ”
Batu tried his best to control the Hun men and stabilize them, he knew how powerful these killers were. When it comes to going it alone, no one is their opponent.
If it dragged on like this, it was obviously not good for the men in black who were raiding, and people kept rushing through the smoke. These guys kept tumbling and jumping on the ground, and the speed was so fast that even the goshawk had to shoot three or four arrows to hit one person.
The approaching man in black quickly fought hand-to-hand with the Hun man, and the compact formation began to be impacted. Suddenly, a loud whistle sounded.
The men in black seemed to have received the order together, and rushed to the Huns' defensive formation together. Almost instantly, the two sides collided. The Huns, accustomed to horse warfare, were obviously not adapted to such fights, and now the tall war horses not only did not bring them convenience. Instead, it has become a cumbersome burden, and some clever guys have jumped off their horses and slashed at each other.
When it comes to martial arts, these Hun men are far from being opponents. If it weren't for the protection of armor, I'm afraid it would have been a river of blood. Those black-clad killers were all extremely martial artists, especially the four guys with strange rings. Circling around the bull without stopping.
The blade in his hand clanged against the bull, who had just swung his tomahawk. The guy retreated like lightning, and the other guy next to him would take the opportunity to sneak up on the bull.
Fortunately, the protection of the whole body plate armor is super good, and the brute bull was not injured. The brute bull roared in anger, but he couldn't help these four guys.
"The woman is in the carriage, we dragged this guy and you are about to take the people away."
A guy with a ring roared.
The situation in the field continued to deteriorate, although the important parts of the Hun men were protected by armor. But the arms and thighs don't have the full-body plate armor like that of a bull.
People kept falling to the ground and wailing, and many people were hanging colors one after another.
At this moment, the ground trembled. There was a rumbling sound in the distance, it was cavalry. This can't be a black-clothed killer, it can only be a cavalry sent by Yun Xiao to support the Huns.
The black-clad killers were shocked, and the current situation was that even if they succeeded in plundering people, they probably wouldn't be able to get away, and the two-legged man would not be able to outrun the four-legged horse anyway. "Kill the woman." A guy with a ring in his hand yelled.
The four of them struggled to entangle the bull, but although they fought equally, it was definitely not easy. The fourth of the four King Kongs was almost hit by the battle axe of the brute bull just now because of his speech.
