Hundreds of people who were fighting fiercely on the ice field were immediately hit by these snowballs. Fortunately, these snowballs were all dry snow, and they scattered when they hit them. The soldiers on both sides were covered with snow.
The players grumbled unwillingly, took off their weapons and armor, and walked to the side. The more than 500 players who had not been hit ran in the direction of the snowball.
He Wuji's expression changed: "Here, there's a trebuchet here? That's too cruel."
Tan Pingzhi opened his eyes wide: "They, they actually smashed their own people together?"
Liu Yu looked coldly at the hundreds of enemy and enemy sergeants who were fighting in a group just now on the ice field. Many of them had been submerged in the thick snow and were struggling to dig out of the snowdrift: "I saw it.
Well, the enemy’s purpose is to eliminate these contestants, and they don’t care about their own casualties. What we have to do is to avoid entanglement with them as much as possible, and cross the river for reconnaissance as early as possible, which is victory!”
Liu Jingxuan also rushed into the woods. Although he was the slowest one at the start, he ran in ahead of Wei Yongzhi and others. He still held the two big axes in his hands, and his eyes were filled with excitement.
He had a look of reluctance: "Isn't it just a catapult? What's so great about it?"
Liu Yu shook his head and said seriously: "The enemy's ambush should be more than just those catapults. If my prediction is correct, they will also have other back-up moves."
While he was talking, he heard the thunderous sound of horse hooves in the valley on one side of the ice field. An unknown number of cavalrymen shot out from the snow and fog, all wearing leather armor, holding large bows, and a shower of arrows.
, and flew towards the players on the opposite side who had not been completely hit by the trebuchet and were fighting with the launch sergeant beside the trebuchet.
Liu Jingxuan's expression was also frightened at this moment: "What's going on? Didn't the shadow army disband? Where did these cavalry come from?"
Liu Yu curled his lips: "How can our Beifu Army, which has tens of thousands of troops, not even be able to gather a few thousand cavalry? Last time when Marshal Xuan formed a shadow army, he must have had the cavalry learn some northern Hu cavalry from these Xianbei people.
The tactics used in this exercise have been put to good use."
He Wuji's eyes widened: "But it's snowy and the ground is so slippery, how can the cavalry do it?"
Liu Yu pointed at the cavalry on the opposite side and saw that the horses' hooves were all covered with thick felt cloth. He said seriously: "Did you see that the hooves of these cavalry have been treated with anti-slip treatment and will not lose their combat effectiveness. The northern cavalry has been around all year round."
You know how to fight in ice and snow, how can you not cope with this?"
Liu Jingxuan sighed: "It's a good thing that I listened to you, Jinu. Otherwise, if we stay on the ice sheet now, we will all be wiped out like those unlucky guys."
He looked at the more than two hundred participating sergeants remaining on the ice field. At this time, they had scattered their formations, rushing left and right, desperately trying to escape into some dense forests and mountains under the pursuit of these cavalry.
In the valley.
But two legs can't outrun four legs. Most people don't run a hundred steps before they are overtaken by the cavalry. When they are far away, they shoot with bows and arrows. When they are close, they swing the lasso, and each set is accurate. The sergeant who is hit by an arrow or is lassoed is only
Neng sat down angrily, took off his armor, and was led by other enemy soldiers to sit in a pile. Soon, more than 600 people who had withdrawn from the game had formed a large group.
Liu Yu looked at Liu Yi, Mao Qiu and the others, leading his men, who had already lost one-third of their number, to desperately get into a small forest.
Liu Yu curled his lips: "It seems that some people still escaped this ambush. The ambush, catapults and cavalry all came out. This is something that more than a thousand of us cannot deal with unless we fight in formation, but
This is not a battle formation. To put it bluntly, the people around us will also be competitors. I am afraid that everyone will not be able to work together. General Liu is aware of this and will arrange it like this."
Liu Jingxuan curled up his lips and muttered: "That's the bad thing about dad. He always arranges these dirty tricks. Men should fight openly and honestly on the battlefield."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Ah Shou, stop being so aboveboard, we are probably going to face a fierce battle!"
Liu Jingxuan's expression changed. Before he could speak, he heard a "Woo" sound and dozens of bows and arrows suddenly flew in the air. The sound of piercing the air came one after another, heading straight towards the small team of players.
Liu Yu shouted: "Well done!" He picked up a shield on his back, and waved the Bailiansu iron sword on his waist with his right hand, like two windmills, whirling around him, more than ten of them.
The bow and arrow shot at him were immediately knocked to the ground.
Liu Jingxuan laughed loudly and said: "I knew there was an ambush here, come on!"
The ax flew out with his left hand and hit a big pine tree twenty steps away. The force of this blow was extremely powerful, and the big ax in his hand weighed more than twenty kilograms. It directly hit the pine tree surrounded by the two people.
Interrupting, several exclamations came from the tree, and six or seven gray figures could be vaguely seen, almost the same color as the bark of this big tree, panicking towards another tree on the side.
Jump.
Tan Pingzhi had already picked up the big bow in his hand, and Wei Yongzhi beside him had already taken down two shields, dancing around him to block the incoming arrows. Tan Pingzhi's arrows were like meteors, and the seven or eight shields in his hands were
The arrows were fired out in succession, and many of the jumping enemy archers were directly shot. The two unlucky guys fell heavily to the ground and could not get up for a long time, while the others were
The guy who hit the vital part had no choice but to stand up unwillingly and threw the bow and arrow under the tree to show his withdrawal.
In just a few minutes, Liu Yu's side wiped out most of the more than 30 archers who made a surprise attack on the tree. Except for four people on Liu Yu's side who had a white spot on their bodies, none of them retired. Very quickly
Soon, only the howling mountain wind was left in the forest, and the snow gradually stopped. This sudden ambush was over.
Liu Jingxuan wiped the sweat from his face, took off his big ax from the big pine tree that he almost broke with his axe, and inserted it back into his back. He shook his head: "I only shot four of them.
There are two slaves less than you."
Liu Yu smiled slightly and put his big bow back on his back: "What's the point of comparing this? You have to reach the finish line first. There should be a small ambush force of the enemy here. When they were dispatched just now, they had already issued a warning
If we get the signal, we can’t stay long, we have to leave as soon as possible!”
He Wuji nodded: "Now that the battle on the ice field is over, they are chasing us with their cavalry. We can only be safe if we enter the woods."
