Chapter 502 The Power of the Carriage Crossbow [2]
Shen Yifeng looked at the warriors on both sides of the city car under the city gate, with an icy cold light in his eyes.
Ordinary arrows naturally do not have much damage to these powerful warriors, but if the attack power of this arrow is extremely shocking, the effect will be completely different.
Turning to look at the thousand crossbowmen behind him, Shen Yifeng ordered loudly: "The four hundred crossbowmen are specially designed to stop the nearby enemy troops, and the remaining one hundred crossbowmen are specially aimed at me on both sides of the city ramming vehicle. Those warriors, please remember that you must wait until you have the correct aim before shooting for me.
"yes!"
Next to him, among the thousands of chariots and crossbowmen, a very strong general responded loudly, and soon made arrangements according to Shen Yifeng's orders.
These vehicle crossbows designed by Shen Yifeng are not ordinary war tools. Each vehicle is very large and is extremely inconvenient to carry around in daily life. However, this problem has been solved by Shen Yifeng a long time ago. , the way to solve this problem is to use a space ring to load the crossbow, so that this cumbersome war tool can be transferred to where it is needed at any time extremely quickly.
The soldier responsible for carrying the crossbow quickly took out the huge crossbow from the space ring and found a suitable location to set it up. Then two soldiers stood next to each crossbow.
The crossbow is very large and can fire ten arrows at a time, and the attack power of the arrows is more than ten times more powerful than the attack power of ordinary bows and arrows. In this case, even a warrior of the Martial King level will find it difficult to Withstand the attack of this powerful arrow.
"Load arrows!"
The order was issued. Five hundred crossbows were quickly loaded amidst the rapid movements of a thousand soldiers, and then the long arrows on the crossbows were aimed at the fearless enemy troops below the city.
"emission!"
Just when hundreds of enemy soldiers were about to rush to the top of the city on the ladder, just when the city ramming vehicle at the city gate was about to slam into the city gate again, on the top of the city, Five hundred crossbows were fired at the same time, and countless fierce sounds pierced the air, followed by arrows flying towards the enemy who were not afraid of death.
A total of ten thousand arrows shot out with the power of piercing the clouds and cracking the sun. Following closely behind the city, a large number of enemy troops attacking the city were directly hit by the arrows and fell to the ground. The city-attack vehicle Among the powerful warriors on both sides, half of them were hit by the arrows of the crossbow and fell to the ground during this attack.
The soldiers on the west gate city wall saw that the enemy troops attacking below the city were severely damaged, and their morale was suddenly shaken. One by one, they struggled to lift boulders and logs and launched a fierce attack on the enemy troops attacking the city. In just a short time, they defeated the aggressive enemy troops. They suffered heavy losses and retreated.
At this time, there were less than a hundred people left on both sides of the city-attack vehicle. Although each of these people had very strong strength, they were already a little afraid of the power of the crossbow.
"withdraw!"
Behind the city-carrying vehicle, a warrior in his forties saw that the losses were too heavy. Knowing that if he continued like this, he would only be seeking death, he had no choice but to issue an order to retreat.
Shen Yifeng stood on the top of the city and looked at the forty-year-old warrior. A cold light flashed in his eyes. The Sky-shattering Bow had appeared in his hand. The power of chaos circulated slightly in his body, shaking the body. A silver-white arrow condensed directly from the sky bow.
The arrowhead was pointed straight at the forty-year-old warrior, and then a cold light shot out. The silver-white arrow with a sharp whistling sound was already in front of the warrior in the blink of an eye.
"snort!"
The warrior was obviously aware of the danger, but he didn't care at all. He believed in his own strength. In his opinion, the arrow attack would not cause much harm to him. Because his strength had already reached the martial spirit level. He felt that no matter how powerful the arrow's attack was, he would definitely be able to withstand it with the power of his own cultivation.
He directly condensed an earth-yellow heart-condensing shield on his chest. In his opinion, this heart-condensing shield was enough to withstand the attacks of incoming arrows.
However, what he didn't expect at all was that the arrows shot by Shen Yifeng using the Sky-shattering Bow could not be compared with ordinary arrows. At this time, Shen Yifeng used the King of Yi technique and also used Tian Ming to increase the number of arrows. The power of an arrow shot.
In order to create a deterrent effect, the attack power of his arrow is extremely huge. Even a martial artist at the Wu Zong level will never be able to withstand the attack of his arrow, not to mention that the warrior is only a warrior at the Wu Ling level.
The silver-white arrows rotated rapidly in the air, carrying a breath of extremely cold energy, and in the blink of an eye they landed hard on the earth-yellow heart shield condensed by the warrior.
"Bang!"
A strong energy bombardment sounded, and the turbulent energy spread in the chest of the warrior. The earthy yellow heart shield was directly bombarded by the energy brought out by the arrow and completely exploded, followed closely by the silver-white arrow. It pierced directly through the warrior's back, and then shot into the chest of another warrior behind the warrior with a piece of blood.
"Well……"
The eyes of the two warriors looked towards Shen Yifeng together, with a strong look of despair in their eyes, and their bodies fell slowly towards the ground.
"shooting!"
At this time, beside Shen Yifeng, a thousand crossbowmen fired tens of thousands of arrows again.
The dense rain of arrows once again shot toward the soldiers like an overwhelming force, directly knocking down a large area of the waiting enemy troops.
Under the west gate of Xuanyuan City, it had become quiet at this time. The enemy's attack was once again repelled, and this time the enemy's casualties were extremely heavy.
Seeing the enemy retreating, Liu Yuntong finally let out a long breath. Originally, he was still worried that Ximen might be in danger, but now with the help of Shen Yifeng and these thousand crossbowmen, he knew that Ximen was in danger. There shouldn't be much of a crisis for the time being.
When Shen Yifeng saw the enemy retreating, he immediately turned to Liu Yuntong and said, "Order the city gate to be opened. I will lead the army out of the city and pick up the arrows that were fired."
"What?!" Hearing what Shen Yifeng said, Liu Yuntong was startled. The enemy had deployed a hundred thousand troops outside the west gate, and there would be support from behind at any time. In such a dangerous situation, Shen Yingtong How could Feng actually want to open the city gate and go out to pick up things? If the enemy saw this, they would definitely send troops to attack immediately. By then, they might not even have time to close the city gate.
In Liu Yuntong's view, Shen Yifeng's actions were tantamount to sending death to the enemy.
"Right now, not far from our west gate, Tang Guoao's 100,000-strong army is watching. If we open the city gate now, the enemy will definitely send their strongest warriors to the front, and then send a large army to follow. What if the city gate is not closed in time and is captured?" Liu Yuntong looked at Shen Yifeng and persuaded: "I think you should not have such a plan. Although we have very few supplies, we can persist for a few days. enough. "
"Haha, I have a great purpose in taking people out to pick up things now." Shen Yifeng smiled slightly and said, "This is a strategic need."
"What strategic need?" Liu Yuntong asked, still refusing to open the city gate to Shen Yifeng.
Seeing the worried look on Liu Yuntong's face, Shen Yifeng knew that if he didn't explain clearly, he would definitely not dare to open the city gate and let him out, so he had no choice but to explain: "There are several benefits to me going out to pick up things. First, when the enemy sees us going out, they will definitely think there is an opportunity to take advantage of it. In this case, as long as we make good arrangements, we will definitely be able to deal a heavy blow to the enemy. Second, when the enemy sees me leading people, Those who ventured out to pick up things must have thought that our army's strategic supplies were already very scarce. Their attack method would definitely change because of this. They would mainly consume our strategic supplies and launch a feint attack on Xuanyuan City, which would lower our defense. The difficulty. Third, and most importantly, by doing this we can create a huge trap for the enemy at any time."
"A huge trap?" Liu Yuntong didn't quite understand what Shen Yifeng said, so he looked at him and asked, "What kind of trap?"
"Haha, you will know when the time comes." Shen Yifeng gave in and said with a smile: "Some things won't work if you say them."
Although Shen Yifeng did not say anything about this so-called trap, Liu Yuntong could completely understand the two reasons Shen Yifeng mentioned before. He felt that Shen Yifeng's ideas were harmful to Ximen's safety, and even to several other people in the imperial capital. The safety of the door plays an extremely important role, and it is indeed of great implementation value.
However, he is still worried. After all, no matter how good the strategy is, it will definitely not have much meaning after the city gate is captured.
Seeing that Liu Yuntong was still hesitant, Shen Yifeng had to temporarily give up the idea of opening the city gate immediately. He wanted to wait until he had defeated the enemy army next time before making such a plan. This time, he wanted to take advantage of this little time to attack Liu Yuntong. Express persuaded, and then we had to seize the time to make some necessary arrangements.
"General Liu, I know what you are worried about, but you don't have to worry at all, because I am absolutely sure of my idea." Shen Yifeng said: "I have a thousand crossbowmen set up at the top of the city. Prepare your crossbows. Use your binoculars to pay attention to the enemy's movements. Then I will send people out to pick up things. When the enemy makes a move, I will order the soldiers to retreat. The crossbows at the top of the city have a long range. If the enemy dares to charge up, they will The losses will inevitably be heavy, but at this time, the enemy must risk their lives to rush forward in order to rush into the city gate. At this time, the chariot and crossbowmen guarding our city can give the enemy a head-on attack, and we can take the opportunity to return to the city."
