Chapter 445: The Fiasco of the Wild Arrow Array
After a frenzied fan, Kou Zhen felt that his depression had dissipated a lot, and he pointed to the general in front of him and shouted: "Dalle, you can be regarded as a long-time battle, according to your attack like this, when will you be able to attack it, why don't you use the mad arrow array?" Where's your siege machine? ”
Dalle stretched out his hand and wiped a handful of blood from his mouth and nose, his face was full of respect, but his heart was already scolding, "TND, do you still think that we are the elite of a hundred years ago, what kind of crazy arrow array are you playing, just these goods, it is not a problem to bully Song Pigs, tell them to shoot at the head of the city, and ensure that nine out of ten arrows fall on their heads!" ”
But these words, he didn't dare to say these words to Kou Zhenyuan anyway, after all, no one dared to guarantee that there would be no life after he said it, at this time, he could only be a dead Daoist friend and not a dead poor Dao, and it was important to protect his life, so he saw him bow his head and respond, that is, he beckoned his subordinates, ready to launch an offensive again.
Soon, the Khitan soldiers and horses once again launched a fierce attack towards the city, in the eyes of ordinary soldiers, the Khitan offensive was no different from before, but in Lu Deng's eyes, it was obvious that there was a difference, whether it was the running speed of the foot soldiers, or the cavalry cruising in the distance, it showed that there would be something different in this attack.
"Humph! Do you want to use your best move, the wolf rush, the wild arrow array? It seems that you, a general, will only be brave and ruthless, and even try to use this trick to turn the tide of the battle, I really don't know whether to say that you are ignorant or bold! Lu Deng was familiar with the war strategies of the military books, and he knew all the tactics of the Khitan well, so he quickly guessed what Kou Zhenyuan thought, and laughed coldly, that is, he ordered his sergeants to do everything as usual, without any scruples.
Those sergeants saw the Khitan cavalry cruising, and they had an indescribable fear in their hearts, after all, the northern alien race relied on cavalry to start, but after hearing Lu Deng's voice, just like his voice had infinite magic, the fear and uneasiness in his heart disappeared without a trace, and he subconsciously grabbed the knife and gun in his hand, ready to give the Khitan people another head-on blow.
Kou Zhenyuan saw that his infantry was already approaching the city wall, so he nodded according to Dalle, Dalle understood, took out a delicate horn from his bosom, put it in his mouth and blew it "woo", and suddenly a desolate and heroic horn sounded, and the cavalry who was cruising not far away heard it, and immediately let out a strange cry in his mouth, picked up his bow and arrow, lined up in a slightly flattened arrow shape, and rushed towards the city of Lu'an Prefecture.
Kou Zhenyuan watched this scene with intoxication, raised the horsewhip in his hand and pointed at the cavalry and said, "See? This is the method that my Khitan should use, where is such a majestic cavalry that those Song pigs can resist, I really don't know how you wastes are mixed into generals! ”
Darler replied resignedly, and the look of contempt in his eyes flashed, "You can be happy now, there will be a time when you cry, but it's a pity for these sons!" ”
There is no way to verify the speed of the cavalry rushing forward, all that can be known is that from the beginning to the city, it is just a blink of an eye, and I saw those Khitan cavalry bending their bows and arrows one by one, and there was a burst of shooting on the city.
"Let go of the arrows! Shoot your arrows to your heart's content! Shoot those Song pigs! Seeing that the Wild Arrow Array began to perform his duties, Kou Zhenyuan couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and shouted loudly regardless of the strange eyes of the generals around him.
His idea was good, and the arrow array was also fulfilling its duty, but unfortunately, the arrows shot by these cavalry could reach the height of the arrow stacks, and they began to fall, and they did not hurt a single cold hair of the defenders at the head of the city, and occasionally one or two streams of arrows flew up, but they were also completely powerless, and they were easily defused by the defenders.
Those falling arrows fell directly into the climbing soldiers, and many of the soldiers who had climbed to half were shot directly on the ladder, and those soldiers couldn't help but be stunned, completely unthinking that they would one day die under their own arrows, and for a while the army was impetuous, and some were at a loss.
Lu Deng at the head of the city saw it, and where would he let go of such an opportunity, he made a move and shouted in a deep voice: "Go to the bed crossbow, release the arrows, and never let these soldiers go back alive!" ”
The sergeants at the head of the city immediately got busy, or seven or eight people, or more than ten people operated a bed crossbow, and shot the crossbow arrows with the thickness of an arm, according to the cavalry under the city, the impact of the bed crossbow was so powerful, often one face penetrated five or six people, and then they were unable to fly, but Rao was so, it was enough to make those cavalry have their hearts and galls, and they were busy running backwards, where was there still the momentum of the previous hurricane rush.
And those soldiers under the city, also under the heavy rain of arrows at the head of the city, countless casualties, almost one in ten, occasionally a few lucky to save their lives, where dare to continue to climb, throw the knife and gun in their hands, and run backwards.
Kou Zhenyuan looked at the scene in front of him with trembling hands, he didn't want to believe that it was true no matter what, and kept muttering, "Why... Why... Why... This is my Khitan inheritance of a hundred years of arrow array, how can I not even shoot the small city wall, who can tell me why! ”
Dalle glanced at Kou Zhenyuan speechlessly in his heart, and said in his heart: "You also know that this is more than a hundred years ago, and now these sons, where can they compare with that time, and now there are a few people who can be the same as then, everyone can open a strong bow, but they can't open a strong bow, and what are you talking about shooting arrows at the head of the city!" It's just that these words, he will only rot in his heart, and he will not say it to Kou Zhenyuan no matter what.
Suddenly, I saw Kou Zhenyuan draw out his waist knife, and rushed over according to those defeated soldiers, and cut down several soldiers in succession, and the rest of the soldiers saw it, and hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy, "General spare your life!" The general spares his life! The general will spare us! ”
Kou Zhenyuan was unmoved, and after killing all the deserters one by one, he raised his bleeding waist knife and pointed it at Dalle and the other generals, and shouted with red eyes: "This is the fate of the deserters!" You waste, hurry up and give me a way, if you can't take Lu'an Prefecture today, tomorrow you will go to Lao Tzu to act as a grass valley soldier! ”
As soon as they heard that they were going to be soldiers in the Grass Valley, Dalle and the others immediately changed their faces, and they saw that they were about to shout towards Kou Zhenyuan: "Kou Zhenyuan, we belong to General Qiong Demon Nayan, what qualifications do you have to order me to wait!" ”
"Eligibility?" Kou Zhen smiled fiercely, turned over his hand and took the bow and arrow is an arrow, and directly killed the general under the arrow, his fierce eyes swept over everyone's bodies, "This is the qualification, who else can you try the qualification of this general?" ”
Dalle and the others shuddered, looked at each other, and finally one of the generals whispered: "General, we can dig a tunnel and sneak into the city from the tunnel..."
"Dig a tunnel..."Kou Zhenyuan thought for a moment and waved his hand at him, "It's a way, you go and prepare!" ”
As if he had been pardoned, he turned around and ran backwards, gathering his men and horses to carry out his tunneling strategy.
"Anything else?" Kou Zhenyuan watched the general run away, looked at the people in front of him, and continued to ask.
"General, the last general sees that there is a water gate in this city, we can divide the men and horses into twelve teams, and attack continuously day and night, and when it is night, the last general will personally lead a team of men and horses to attack the water gate, I believe that the soldiers in the city have been pinned down at that time, and there will be no time to deal with it, and this city will definitely be broken in one fell swoop!" Dalle thought about it for a moment, but stood up.
