The strong and wild posture of this black-clothed archer exuded a shocking power, which made Xin Weike, who had been fighting in this land of white mountains and black waters for five years, a little confused, but he still did what he should do immediately.
things.
"Royal!"
"shoot!"
The two simplest bytes spurted out from his chest and throat with iron-blooded and hot breath. All the sergeants who were still breathless implemented his orders with strong will immediately, and there was no need for more detailed instructions.
Following the instructions, all the sergeants with shields immediately gathered at the forefront. After that, all the archers desperately pulled their bowstrings and fired towards the rear of the black-clothed archers.
A bald cave barbarian was then filled with black arrows and hit the ground with a final scream.
These frontier archers, who had been honed in the battlefield of life and death, also demonstrated archery skills that far exceeded those of ordinary local garrison troops.
The condescending rain of arrows and the fall of the first few cave barbarians were not able to stop these cave barbarians who rushed up and then ran more and more powerful. However, at this moment, everyone's eyes suddenly solidified.
The black-clothed archer's feet stepped on the ground in a more powerful posture, and his whole body jumped into the air. While in the air, his entire body turned around, and his whole body appeared slightly stagnant in the air.
pause.
Just for a moment, the long bow in his hand shot two arrows in succession.
A cave barbarian holding a notched giant ax and charging forward was shaken violently, and he reached out to cover his throat.
The first arrow of the black-clothed archer pierced his throat hard, but the second arrow pierced his palm, and the palm of his hand that was covering his throat was also nailed to his throat.
On the throat.
The archer in black landed on the ground, but his knees sank slightly, which offset the impact of the high jump and landed firmly, and he stood firm.
The palm of his hand was nailed to the hole on his throat and he collapsed.
The cave barbarians at the rear who were holding various weapons, with muscles on their bodies bulging as high as rocks, and white air spraying from their mouths, all paused for a moment, not because of fear of death, but because of the strength of this black-clothed archer.
This slight pause gave the archers in black and the sergeants of the patrol army some precious time.
This old watchtower, located on an unknown hill in the Yangjiantian Mountains, has been abandoned for many years. The rough rock gaps have been covered with various small vines, and there are wooden ladders and wooden ladders leading to the arrow holes above.
The platform has been completely destroyed. Many collapsed wooden bars, as well as the laminates and stone bars used at that time, have piled up in a big pile in the middle of the watchtower. The doorway that originally only allowed two people to enter and exit side by side was hit by some heavy wall attack and was damaged.
Seriously, when the patrol army passed by earlier, there was a long and flat gap wide enough for five or six people to stand side by side and as high as one person, which exposed almost the entire front of the watchtower. Although I was afraid that the watchtower would become an obvious target or it might have been a hole in the first place.
Man left the trap here to attract them and did not dare to sleep in it at night. However, under Kang Qianjue's suggestion, they still spent a lot of time piling up rocks and tamping the soil with large logs to block the bottom of the gap.
The gap was now only about four or five people wide, and only about half a person high, so that in case of being attacked and defeated, one could stand still and wait for reinforcements. Unexpectedly, it was actually used.
Judging from the previous cave barbarian team that blocked their retreat, these cave barbarians who should be extremely stupid and have no tactical strategy at all have really considered this abandoned watchtower.
It's a natural bait for them.
"Royal!"
Looking at the black-clothed archers who were only more than ten steps away from his own formation, Xin Weige once again issued an extremely simple order.
All the sergeants immediately retreated into the tower behind them, and a dozen shield-holding sergeants formed two teams, blocking the doorway.
The sergeant in the front knelt on one knee, grinding a dent in the ground with the soles of his hind feet. He held a shield with both hands and placed his shoulder on the shield.
The sergeants in the rear row bowed slightly, holding their shields with both hands as if they were pushing open a door, and placed the shields tightly on top of the shield below, leaving only a gap for the last archer in black to jump in.
Without any hesitation, the archer in black took a few flying steps and passed a distance of more than ten steps from an ordinary person. With a tap on the shield in the lower row, he jumped into the old watchtower through the gap in the shield above.
The shields behind him immediately surrounded him, and almost all the remaining sergeants pushed up. Some of the sergeants held up the two rows of shield-holding sergeants like a support, and the other sergeants with spears and other long blades put their spears and spears on them.
After some gaps between the shields, he maintained a posture ready to exert force at any time.
This defensive posture comes from experience soaked in blood.
Only by working together can we survive against such an astonishingly powerful opponent as the Xueman, making the unconditional execution of military orders something that has penetrated into the bones of these elite border troops in Yunqin.
…
The most frightening thing about cave barbarians is their arrogant strength and extremely strong endurance.
With the guarantee of sufficient strength and endurance, the thigh muscles are so developed that even the legs seem to be apart from each other. Even if the adult cave barbarian rushes up a slope with an angle of more than 45 degrees, his sprint will not be affected at all in a short period of time.
speed.
Moreover, during the decades of confrontation with the powerful Yunqin army, it is not that they have never seen powerful practitioners, nor have they killed powerful practitioners.
Therefore, the black-clothed archers' shock to them only stopped them for a few breaths.
Xin Weige didn't even have time to talk to the black-clothed archer who jumped up not far from him, breathing violently like a bellows. He didn't even fully see the black-clothed archer's clothes and hands in the dark tower.
With their long bows, the hard stone ground under their feet was already trembling.
The body of a man with bronze-colored skin seemed to rise from the horizon, appearing in the eyes that pierced through the gap in the shield.
"Roar!"
Amidst the violent roars that made the eardrums buzz, one cave barbarian smashed the weapon in his hand with all his strength, like a wave formed by huge blue rocks, impacting on the cold black shield formation.
The black-clothed archer's violent breathing paused.
Even though he was mentally prepared, these extremely dull loud noises still made his heart tighten and then burst out of his mouth.
Muffled grunts and suppressed shouts echoed around him.
The feet of the sergeants kneeling on one knee in the front row and those in the rear pushing them desperately and the soil under their feet also made a heart-stopping friction sound.
The shields uncontrollably sank and diverged, revealing many gaps.
"kill!"
However, at the moment when the black shield array like a black embankment seemed to be broken by the blue waves, all the sergeants waiting behind, holding spears and inhaling constantly, let out an unimaginable scream, using all their strength.
With all his strength, he thrust the spear in his hand through the gap in the shield.
A few of the spears missed, but most of them pierced into the flesh.
The weight of the opponent and the impact of the attack made it difficult for the sergeants to hold the spear shaft with their cloth-wrapped palms. However, the sergeants pushed it hard with their chests, holding it firmly and sliding back.
When the tail of the rod penetrated deep into the opponent's body and the resistance was slightly reduced, the soldiers used force again and fiercely pulled back the spear in their hands.
"Puff puff!"….
Strips of blood rushed on the black shield, and a lot of it sprayed on the bodies and faces of the shield-holding sergeants. However, these shield-holding sergeants ignored it completely and still used all their strength to hold up the shield in front of them.
Every adult cave barbarian warrior is equivalent to half a cultivator, so even if a cultivator falls into a group of cave barbarians, he will be killed alive, so even if the black-clothed archer is definitely a cultivator
However, all the sergeants also knew very well that whether this gap could be held or not would depend on the lives of all of them.
…
No one is afraid of fighting.
Amidst the continuous thrusts of spears and spears, blood-soaked cavemen kept falling down. The black shield array undulated like wheat waves, but it still stood upright.
A dozen cave barbarians have already fallen in front of this cold black embankment, plus the cave barbarian team composed of six or seven throwers who died previously, as well as several cave barbarians who were shot and killed below the hill, here.
The number of dead cave barbarians has exceeded twenty-five!
Compared with the Yangjian Tianshan Patrol Army, which only dispatched a total of forty-nine sergeants this time, this is already an extremely impressive record.
Because compared to the main frontal forces such as the Pioneer Battalion and the Main Army Battalion, the Patrol Army cannot compare with them in terms of ordnance. There is no heavy armor, wall-penetrating crossbows and other powerful ordnance to assist them.
And even for organic armies such as the Pioneer Battalion and the Regular Army Battalion, they will only have an absolute advantage when the number of the two sides exceeds four to one.
But there was no joy in the eyes of these soldiers in all the watchtowers, only the cold light of heroic determination.
Because the number of these cave barbarians is definitely over a hundred!
A big tree suddenly rose up on the hillside, causing all the soldiers' pupils to shrink violently.
Six or seven cave barbarians appeared in their sight carrying a large tree that they had chopped down.
Although the branching branches and leaves were not cut off, judging from the movements of these cave barbarians, everyone knew that these cave barbarians were going to carry this big tree and use it as a siege vehicle!
The shield array they formed was close to its limit in resisting the impact of these cave barbarian weapons and bodies. How could it withstand such an impact?
"I'll count to three, you guys give in a little bit!"
At this moment, all these sergeants heard the voice of the black-clothed archers from behind.
What made them unable to help but let out a beast-like roar was that they saw the black-clothed archer holding a stone bar weighing at least more than two hundred kilograms with both hands and standing coldly behind them. His body
