Everyone said in unison: "Yes!" As they spoke, they put their shields up in front of them, holding them with their left hands, while their right hands held a single sword or a spear, stretching out from the gaps in the shields.
They are ready to stab at any time. Although they have not received much military training, these barbarians have seen fighting to some extent. They have also witnessed countless fights in the fighting field these days. In order to survive, at least some basic tactical movements are modeled.
Something like that.
Yan Xiaoer, the smallest, could not hold the big shield, so he could only hold a spear in both hands. He stood behind Liu Yu and stretched out from the edge of the shield that Liu Yu was holding on with his left hand. His body was still moving slightly.
The ground was shaking, and his breathing was a little confused, but he was no longer as nervous as before he came on the field. Liu Yu smiled slightly and touched his head: "Don't worry, we can all survive."
Yan Xiaoer nodded vigorously and grinned. At this moment, four iron bars fell down, the sound of horse hooves and wheels roared, and four chariots rushed out, accompanied by the crazy roars of the spectators:
"Crush them to death, crush them to death!"
Behind Liu Yu, someone began to scream in horror: "Oh my God, it's a chariot, we are going to be finished!"
Liu Yu shouted loudly: "Everyone, pay attention. Squat down, shield slightly tilted, and protect the vital points of the head and chest. Before the chariot attacks, it will gallop around us and withstand their shots first."
As he spoke, he bowed slightly and squatted down, looking at the situation outside through the gap in the shield. Besides the roar of the chariot, there was another heavy sound, coming from within the four gates.
It was heard that even the ground here was shaking slightly. Liu Yu opened his eyes wide and heard a huge roar. A giant elephant covered in iron armor weighed more than ten thousand kilograms and was more than ten feet tall.
Gao, with his head held high and his nose wagging, walked out of a doorway. The tops of his tusks were shaved as sharp as a blade, and even the ivory was covered with a layer of fine steel, which shone in the sunlight.
There was a roar of excitement from the stands, and everyone was laughing: "Liu Yu, you are finished, trample them to death, trample them to death!"
In the mafia shed in the north, Xuanwu looked at Qinglong coldly: "Is this what you call fair?"
Qinglong smiled slightly: "Four chariots, plus a war elephant, a dozen people fighting a dozen, isn't it fair?"
Bai Hu sighed: "Why don't you send out twelve war elephants and just trample Liu Yu to death?"
Qinglong smiled and shook his head: "It's fun to be evenly matched. Besides, is it easy for you to be an elephant?"
Liu Yu's companions had never seen an elephant. Even Liu Yu himself had only heard of it, and these barbarian slaves from the north had never even heard of it. When they saw this behemoth, they were stunned.
There was a cry of panic, and even the shield formation that had been basically stable just now began to shake.
Liu Yu shouted in a deep voice: "Don't panic, this is just a big bull from Jiaozhou. It's just a little bigger. I'll deal with it later!"
Yan Xiaoer blinked: "Brother Liu, is this really a big cow in Jiaozhou? Why is it so big and its barking sound doesn't sound like a cow? Also, there are those two big teeth, so scary
Ah, how come a cow has this thing?"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth and laughed: "I have said that it is a big bull of the Southern Barbarians. It grows in the forest and is different from the ones we usually see. Don't worry, although it is big, it is very heavy. When the time comes, just lift its legs.
Cut it off and it will die."
Sun Xing looked at the war elephant's thighs, which were as thick as beams, and murmured: "How can you cut such thick legs?"
Before he finished speaking, on top of the war elephant, on the railing that was more than ten feet wide, several naked southern barbarian archers with curly hair and black skin were nocking arrows and shooting a few arrows at Liu Yu. Liu Yu
He quickly picked up a small shield on the ground, shouted loudly, and danced tightly. Since the war elephant was much taller than ordinary people, these arrows directly passed over the shield and shot from the top of his head. Fortunately, Liu Yu danced with the shield.
Block.
Yan Xiaoer threw away the spear in his hand and held tightly to the big shield that Liu Yu had just released. He could only hear the sound of "swish". On top of those galloping chariots, the charioteers were driving,
Running back and forth around the edge of the fighting arena, the archers on the car bent their bows and set arrows, and kept firing arrows at the small circle of more than ten people in the center. The sound of arrows piercing the air,
It is common knowledge that these archers have excellent shooting skills and strength. Even a large wooden shield with a thickness of two inches can still be shot with a clanking sound. Some arrows can even penetrate the shield slightly, and arrowheads can be seen on the back.
The prisoners behind the shield were so frightened that they clung to the shield tightly and dared not move.
Liu Yu gritted his teeth. He realized that there was nothing he could do if he could only shoot but not fight. He looked around and saw that everyone around him was squatting on the ground and holding on to their shields. How could they dare to get up? His actions showed that he had no fighting experience.
What people have learned is useless at this critical moment of life and death. Only Sun Xing's crouching posture is still standard and can be bounced up at any time. If he has both hands, he will definitely be able to help him a lot.
Liu Yu shouted to Sun Xing: "Sun Xing, wave your shield and block the arrows." He threw the shield in his hand towards Sun Xing.
Sun Xing nodded, stood up, took the shield, bent his waist, and kept waving it above his head to block the arrows fired from the war elephant from above.
Liu Yu picked up the thunder bow on the ground, hid behind a large shield, and began to observe the situation outside from the gap in the shield. The running of the chariot had raised dust all over the sky, shrouding himself in it.
In the dust storm, the position and direction could not be clearly seen. Only the tall war elephant still stood high above the smoke and dust. The riders on the elephant's back, the shooters and the spearmen waving their spears were still clearly visible.
visible.
Liu Yu saw it clearly. He put an arrow on his bow and suddenly ran away. Three arrows shot out directly from the bowstring at the same time. The war elephant was only about thirty steps away from Liu Yu, and it was charging towards Liu Yu head-on.
At this distance, three consecutive arrows arrived almost simultaneously.
The space on the seat railing above the elephant's back was narrow, but there were five people sitting there. It was almost impossible to dodge. The charioteer was at the front. He lowered his head and three arrows grazed his scalp, knocking over the yellow turban.
, and there were three sounds of bows and arrows entering the body at the same time from behind.
The three southern barbarian archers who were firing arrows just now either covered their hearts or held their foreheads. They all lost their bows and arrows and fell down. And one unlucky guy was directly stepped on by the elephant's leg, "poof"
The whole body was turned into flesh. The war elephant driver was so frightened that he quickly lay on the elephant's back, tightened the reins in his hands, and told the elephant to turn away, not daring to rush towards Liu Yu's shield array again.
In just one move, Liu Yu killed three people in a row, making the stands that were noisy just now suddenly quiet.
