Chapter 556 Wherever sincerity comes, gold and stone will open up
Wei Zijian pointed to a valley ahead and said: "That is Qingyang Gorge. This mountain road is flat and wide, and the mountains on both sides are relatively gentle, so it is not suitable for attacks such as rolling logs and thunder stones, but it is quite suitable for ambush some archers.
, condescending, shooting from a long range. Especially since the terrain here is open, there is almost no place to hide under the lock of bows and arrows. If we forcefully break through, we will probably suffer many casualties."
Masters above the eighth realm are naturally not afraid of bows and arrows, but most of the disciples of Yuzhou Sixth Hall are not masters of the eighth realm. They are destined to be unable to avoid the crazy attacks of strong bows and crossbows, and many people are destined to sacrifice their lives.
Feng Jiuxiao said calmly: "It's okay for them to have bows and arrows, but they are just small bows and arrows. We do have the three-bow crossbow, a powerful siege weapon, which is many times more powerful than their small bows and arrows. It is not possible to attack them from a distance."
Our opponents. What is the longest range record of their strongest archers?"
Wei Zijian said: "In my impression, three hundred steps seems to be the limit!"
Three Hundred Steps is also a strong opponent in the military.
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Isn't this the end of the matter? We will form a formation three hundred steps away and shoot at them with three-bow crossbows. Can they beat us?"
The shooting range of the three-bed crossbow is close to a thousand steps. It is invincible to attack the city. The archers of the Rongcheng faction are nothing more than flesh and blood. Isn't it as easy to attack them as to destroy the dead and destroy the clouds?
Seeing that Feng Jiuxiao seemed to be underestimating the enemy, Wei Zijian gritted his teeth and said softly: "As far as I know, their arrows are usually tied with explosive detonators, and the twister will be ignited before launching. The Lord should know that the power of gunpowder explosions cannot be underestimated.
Look, its killing radius is probably more than three hundred steps."
Feng Jiuxiao frowned and said: "This Lao Jin from the Rongcheng faction is really capable of causing trouble! Then let's go back another three feet!"
Wei Zijian was a little worried, "I'm afraid the three feet may not be safe."
A distance of three feet or less than a dozen steps is still not safe enough.
The power of gunpowder is huge. The blast of air is enough to send rubble within ten feet flying like arrows. It has extremely strong penetrating power and is very lethal to the human body!
Feng Jiuxiao pondered: "The farthest shooting range is three hundred steps, which is about one hundred feet. How many long archers are there with such strong physical strength?"
Wei Zijian said: "As far as I know, there are at least fifteen people in the bow and arrow camp of the Rongcheng Sect Headquarters who can shoot three hundred steps!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "A dozen is not too many, but it is not too few either." If these dozen people specialize in killing fixed targets, they are indeed a force that cannot be ignored.
Feng Jiuxiao already learned from Wei Zijian that there are three types of bow and arrow ambush formations in Rongcheng: large, medium and small.
The total number of people in the bow and arrow battalion is as high as 800, which is one-third the size of the bow and arrow army of the imperial dynasty!
When a small group of enemies attacks, it is usually enough to dispatch a small bow and arrow array of fifty people. When encountering a relatively powerful or large number of enemies, it will be upgraded to a medium-sized arrow array of two hundred people, with Wei Zijian against Jin Yu.
Based on my understanding, out of caution, the size of this arrow array is estimated to be a large arrow array of about 500 people!
Because Feng Jiuxiao is too "evil", plus the many masters accompanying him this time and the Yuzhou Sixth Hall's momentum is too huge, the scale of the blocking force must be large.
Feng Jiuxiao has experienced hundreds of battles, so he is not surprised that there are so many archers on the other side. Are there still fewer archers in Liancheng in the past?
When attacking Yuzhou, we encountered archers from Xishu!
No matter how many archers there are, what's there to fear?
Although the power of gunpowder is huge, only a few archers can shoot it up to 300 feet. As long as these few people are eliminated, the opponent will naturally lose its firepower.
As if she thought she had a countermeasure, Feng Jiuxiao said: "Let's go."
The large group of people continued to move forward in a mighty manner.
When they arrived at the entrance of the valley, estimated to be about two hundred feet away from the nearest hilltop, Feng Jiuxiao signaled everyone to stop.
Stop and observe the terrain first.
At this time, the opponent will definitely not attack suddenly, because there is no benefit in being exposed now. If the arrow is not within the shooting range, it will not cause much damage, but it will also scare the snake.
Feng Jiuxiao looked at the wide road, and then saw that the tops of the mountains on both sides were not too far from the road at their feet. The shortest distance was estimated to be about a hundred feet, which was basically within the normal range!
He looked at the hills on both sides. There were lush pine trees and huge boulders. The view from the top was wide, and the people below had nowhere to hide.
Geographically speaking, we are at a disadvantage.
Looking up from below, you can only see a pile of stones and green pines. Of course, you can also see the blue sky and white clouds.
If you walk over like this, the other side's archers will fire thousands of arrows at the bottom, and the arrows will rain like rain. Where can you hide when the terrain is open?
It is basically difficult to avoid the Qinggong of the disciples of Yuzhou Sixth Hall.
After all, there are only a handful of people who can outrun an arrow.
"Brother Wolf, fifteen, you two will lead a hundred people to explore the road!" Bigg Wolf was allowed to go because he has a copper skin and an iron frame, and the probability of injury is low.
Let Pang Shiwu go, mainly because he is his brother.
If there is danger, of course, you should let your own people go first. This not only shows that you treat everyone equally, but also increases Pang Shiwu’s opportunity to hone his martial arts. Because Pang Shiwu has the best chance at this moment, he has his own plundering formation, and
Gongsun Zhicheng is behind him. No matter how much he is injured, he will not die. As long as he does not die, he is destined to make progress.
Seeing that Feng Jiuxiao actually sent his closest brothers to explore the way, although everyone showed no expression, they felt a little disturbed after all. Especially the few people who were forced to sign the contract by Feng Jiuxiao felt a sense of security in their hearts for no reason, and there was a sense of security hidden in their hearts.
The fear and doubt actually faded a bit.
"Yes!" Big Wolf and Pang Shiwu said in unison.
"Brother Zeng, Brother Liu, each of you will lead thirty men and be responsible for suppressing the archers on the other side's mountain top with three-bow crossbows!" Feng Jiuxiao said.
"No problem!" Zeng Yong said.
Liu Mizhou nodded.
"Master Yue, now you are responsible for the command of the entire Yuzhou Sixth Hall. If there is no large group of people in front to stop the attack, then we will go directly through Qingyang Gorge. If someone blocks the attack, you will be responsible for arranging the troops and commanding everyone.
Fight to the death with the enemy!"
Yue Feng said loudly: "I have the order!" Naturally, the excitement in his heart could not be seen by others, but after all, he could not control his hand from shaking slightly.
Handing the flag to him is a great sign of trust in him!
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Master Bai Lian, Lao Liu, you two each lead a hundred people to be responsible for the rear of the palace to prevent the enemy from attacking from behind and outflanking!"
Even if Feng Jiuxiao didn't say it explicitly, Yue Feng and everyone knew in their hearts that what Feng Jiuxiao gave him was the command of the Sixth Hall of Yuzhou. As for the several peak masters of the Nine Realms, apart from Zhan Zhi, Feng Jiuxiao could only command them.
Just like Venerable Bai Lian, he only stayed to help out for Feng Jiuxiao's sake. If he wanted to leave, Feng Jiuxiao had no right to keep him. It would definitely be impossible for him to obey other people's orders.
Venerable Bailian and Liu Zhenfeng said in unison: "I have the order."
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Master Bai Lian, after taking over the main hall of the Rongcheng Sect, you can go back to the Daxue Mountain. I will consider your matter." He had long wanted Bai Lian to go back.
How could Bai Lian keep escorting him out of Xishu?
Later, Master Wusu died in battle, and Bai Lian had to change his mind. He cremated Master Wusu's body, buried his ashes, and prepared to send them back to Daguangming Temple.
It was inconvenient for him to say it clearly, after all, he had promised to send Feng Jiuxiao out of the country.
But how could Feng Jiuxiao delay Master Wusu’s ritual?
Since Feng Jiuxiao said it, Bai Lian will not be sloppy, "Okay, I will go back after capturing Wangrong Peak!"
After the deed was done, he walked away without anyone being able to say a single word of no!
Feng Jiuxiao's recent impression of Bai Lian is very good!
No matter what happened to Daguangming Temple, at least Venerable Bailian lived and died with him and walked an unusual path.
They have never hidden their purpose, which is to hope that they can cooperate with them and regain their position as the leader of the Demon Cult.
Although they are from the Demon Cult, they still act openly and above all.
Master Wusu also died this time, which is not a small sacrifice!
Although Feng Jiuxiao didn't say it explicitly, Bai Lian could feel that Feng Jiuxiao had most likely already thought of cooperating.
Bai Lian remembered what Dharma King Guangming said to her: "Sincerity leads to spirituality."
Yes, where sincerity comes, gold and stone will open.
What's more, Feng Jiuxiao is an enthusiastic person.
