In addition, the recommendation list is also one place short of being on the classification list, and Muzi is anxious to recommend tickets and monthly passes! Today's most rear! ）

In the city, on the roof of a private house, Li Jing watched angrily as the pirates arrogantly poured into the city. These pirates were so arrogant that they didn't even send a single tentative scout, so they rushed in directly.

This group of thieves, although they are outnumbered and attacked, but they rushed in like this, which is too indifferent to themselves.

Li Jing softly shouted the order to stabilize, the officers passed it one by one, and after the order was passed down, the soldiers' emotions that had just been impacted were finally stable enough. At this time, the Shamen Town Army had already set up a huge ambush circle in Xicheng according to the prior arrangement. At the core of the ambush circle, there were 120 Jiading teams led by Li Jing himself, and there were also 6 groups of 72 strange soldiers among the specially selected soldiers. Among them, the odd soldiers were at the forefront with a large square shield, and they were also equipped with an eight-foot spear, a bow, and a pot of thirty arrows.

These seventy-two people will bear the burden of stabilizing the formation and preventing the pirates from breaking through the ambush circle. Behind them were two Jiading teams of 120 people led by Li Jing, these two Jiading teams could shoot from a distance and fight at close range, playing a role in supporting the odd soldiers. Behind them, there are six groups of jumping sword and shield soldiers, and then six groups of Mo knife soldiers, but at the moment they are not equipped with Mo knives, so they temporarily serve as sword and shield soldiers and archers, and at the end, there are six groups of crossbowmen who are distributed on the roof and other high places, a total of seventy-two crossbow machines, and everyone is equipped with bows.

This is the main ambush force, on the left, there are a total of six teams of 420 sword and shield soldiers, and on the right side is an estimated 700 spearmen. Furthermore. There are also hundreds of young men with wooden sticks and stones ready to come up to support at any time.

This formation was used to deal with five hundred pirates, and Li Jing felt that it was enough. But now, he had to deal with 1,200 thieves with these soldiers, and he didn't even have time to change his arrangement.

Seeing the pirates pouring into the city like a tidal wave, the soldiers who had just boosted some morale began to fear again. It was the first real battle. Although they had imagined countless battle scenes before the battle, how to kill people and make meritorious contributions and make a name for themselves. But before the battle, looking at the bright sword tips and the rumbling footsteps, the hearts of many soldiers began to beat violently, their faces were red, their ears were red, their ears were ringing, and their hands and feet were even weak. Thirsty.

Li Xigou, the leader of the gendarmerie, led a group of black-clothed gendarmes wearing red armbands to stand in the last row with knives, and they received Li Jing's personal order that during the battle, anyone who dared to retreat from the white line drawn on the street with or without an order would be punished for the crime of cowardice desertion. There is no forgiveness for direct killing.

Before the war, it had been strictly decreed that those who were executed by the gendarmerie for desertion would not only be denied compensation, but their families would also be expelled from the town of Shamen.

Seeing the bandits rushing closer and closer. Nearly a third had already rushed into the city. Originally, if there were only five hundred thieves, almost all of them had entered the ambush circle at this time. But now, only more than 400 people have entered the ambush circle. There were still seven or eight hundred people still outside the gap.

Can't wait any longer, wait any longer, the pirates in the vanguard will rush to the ambushed warriors.

Li Jing shouted: "Archers prepare!" ”

Immediately, all the soldiers and soldiers who were armed with bows and arrows drew their bows and arrows, although the previous examination showed that among all the soldiers in the town, there were very few who were qualified in archery, and even eleven groups of archers could not be assembled. But at this time, hundreds of soldiers fired their bows at the same time, and the power of the random shot was equally amazing, and it was completely a covering attack. In such a dark night, good archery skills are also limited by the dim light of the night, and it is better to cover the shooting.

Seeing that the pirates in the vanguard had rushed to within sixty steps, Li Jing shouted: "Release the arrow!" ”

At this time, regardless of the accuracy, just shoot at a forty-five degree angle to the sky, and the arrow will naturally fall from the sky, far exceeding the power of flat shooting. Hundreds of arrows flew into the sky more than ten zhang in unison, and then turned into a rain of arrows, with the sound of the howling wind rushing down.

Countless screams were heard, and the first to rush into the city were the vanguard of the pirates, who were not armoured, and at this time they really tasted the power of dense upward fire. In the first moment, the dense group of pirates fell twenty or thirty.

The pirates were caught off guard and stuffy. Before this moment, they had no idea how the castle that should have been broken through by them would suddenly have such sharp attacks.

The leader of the Pirate Striker, Huang Yu, was stunned all of a sudden, but fortunately, his rich combat experience allowed him to instinctively avoid the arrow that fell straight from his head. Kankan avoided the arrow, and his soul was finally recovered. There was an ambush, that was his first reaction.

The next moment, he immediately tore open his throat and shouted loudly: "There is an ambush, rush, rush hard, rush over and kill them all!" Years of experience have taught him that there are only two ways to face an ambush, one is to stay close to the spot and wait for backup. The second is not to retreat but to advance, continue to rush over. Although the enemy has an ambush, as long as they can rush through it, they will have a way out. At this time, we must not retreat, there are accomplices coming in the back, and the back road is not smooth at all. At this time, retreat, retreat and retreat could not retreat, but exposed the entire back to the enemy.

Yellow Croaker did not choose to move closer on the spot, but chose to continue to charge.

"Don't be afraid, there aren't many of them, they're all recruits, rush over, rush to their side and they'll be defeated!" Yellow croaker roared.

The pirates were all outlaws licking blood on the tip of their knives, and although they were ambushed, after the initial panic, they quickly continued to rush forward. The archers have already fired three arrows in a row, and the pirates have fallen by dozens. But this still couldn't stop them, and more and more thieves had rushed up.

"Stand your shield, raise your gun!"

"Hold your ground!"

Li Jing kept firing his bow while watching the battlefield at any time and changing orders in time. After receiving the order, the seventy-two strange soldiers at the front immediately put down their bows, grabbed the square iron shield more than half a person high and smashed it heavily on the ground, and several sharp teeth at the bottom of the square shield immediately pierced deep into the ground. The strange soldier holds the shield in one hand and the spear in the other, half-kneeling behind the shield, raising the spear and waiting for battle.

Seventy-two shields were connected, and in an instant, they formed a copper wall and iron arm, blocking the entrance of the street.

"Crossbowman, crossbow machine ready!"

The accuracy of the bow is too low. The closer the pirates rushed, the more the hit rate actually dropped. The archer standing on the roof immediately took a crossbow machine, the rate of fire of the crossbow machine is actually not comparable to the bow and arrow, but the flat shooting power of the crossbow arrow is not comparable to the bow and arrow, even if the archery is not good, shooting with the crossbow machine can also increase the hit rate, even more mentioned. The crossbow machine is more powerful in a short distance, and the crossbow machine that Li Jing equipped for the crossbow team is a three-shot repeater.

"Shoot!"

"Woohoo!" From several directions above several houses on the street, seventy-two repeaters were fired at the same time, and this batch of newly modified repeaters could shoot three crossbow arrows at a time, although the life of the remodeled use was much lower than the original one, and it was easy to malfunction, but once it was used intensively, it was powerful in an instant. That's also something that a bow and arrow can't compare with an ordinary crossbow machine.

In a short period of time, more than 200 crossbow arrows were all shot out, forming a terrifying metal storm among the pirates. In an instant, the storm tore through dozens of pirates who rushed to the shield wall. One after another, the red-eyed, sword-wielding pirates stopped forever a few steps in front of the shield wall. The corpses were stacked on top of each other. No further steps can be made.

The pirates behind didn't dare to rush hard anymore, and let the yellow fish roar behind, but those pirates all lost their courage at this time, and they all hid on both sides one by one. The pirates are terrified. They had never seen such a fierce attack, and they all began to turn and flee.

Li Jing seized the opportunity and immediately ordered the Odd Soldiers to open a few passages. Let the swordsmen and shields rush out of the gang and chase down the fleeing pirates. However, the surprise soldiers were required to hold their positions, and other archers were not allowed to pursue.

More than 100 jumping soldiers came out, and Li Jing led his two teams of family members to follow closely behind and pounced like wolves. At this point, the pirates broke their courage and only turned around and fled towards the gap. Although the gap was very wide, no matter how wide it was, it couldn't stop rushing out desperately while rushing out. The people and horses on both sides blocked the three gaps to death, and you stepped on me, and the chaos was incomparable. Li Jing took the opportunity to kill, and the jumping soldiers held a cowhide round shield in one hand and a horizontal knife in the other, just following behind to slash and kill.

At the beginning, the jumping soldiers were a type of military that no one wanted to sign up for, but since Li Jing increased the salary of the jumping soldiers and said that the officers would choose more from the jumping soldiers in the future, all the soldiers in the army who had some ability went to sign up for the jumping soldiers. This has also led to the fact that the jumping soldier is now the most fierce and elite in the army. More than 200 jumping soldiers chased and killed, and the ghosts who killed directly cried wolves, and blood flowed all over the ground.

However, Li Jing did not fall in love with the battle, this wave of counterattacks caught the enemy by surprise, and the pirates outside were blocked and could not enter. If there is a love war, once the gap is opened, more pirates will pour in, and Li Jing will not be able to bear it.

Li Jing carried the long knife dripping blood and swung it back vigorously, and Zhang Chengzong and Liu Shouqian, the two leaders of the family, immediately stuffed the iron whistle hanging around their necks into their mouths and blew it desperately. A sharp iron whistle sounded, and all the sword and shield soldiers were shocked, and then quickly moved closer and retreated. The strange soldier immediately opened the shield array, and after the sword and shield soldiers successfully retreated to the shield wall.

The Jumping Soldiers and the Family Ding team were all bloody, and even the hands holding the knives were trembling, but this could not hide the excitement in their hearts at this time. Basically, every gang has made some gains just now, and their military achievements are not small.

Zhang Chengzong waved the bamboo steel whip stained with countless red and white things, and said with a smile: "Cool, so cool, this attack is really a pleasure." ”

Liu Shouqian held a copper shovel in one hand and a horizontal knife in the other, and laughed, "Just with this group of thieves, they actually want to come and fight us, today, I want to let them taste what it means to have no return." ”

In the first batch of more than 400 pirates who rushed into the city, except for nearly 100 who died under the bow and arrow and crossbow machine at the beginning, most of the rest died from Li Jing's attack just now, killing more than 100 thieves, and dozens of injured and too late to escape from the city, although they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, but they were ruthlessly ordered to be killed by Li Jing. Of the more than 400 thieves, only more than 100 escaped back, and the rest were all buried in the city.

After this ambush, the pirates outside the city temporarily stopped attacking. Li Jing also took this opportunity to order everyone to rest and replenish their strength, and he knew in his heart that although the killing was happy and the results were remarkable, the main reason was that the enemy was caught off guard. In the next round, it may be a hard fight. (To be continued.) )
