Vol 4 Chapter 3572: Repeating crossbows cover the pit

Tears glistened in Shen Tianzi's eyes, and he shouted in desperation, "Goudan, Goudan, my brother!"
Goudan's corpse, just like that silently, was pulled into a big character and stood there, even motionless, like a human-shaped archery target, Shen Yiqi on the side shouted: "Third brother, run quickly, if you don't run again, It's too late!"
Shen Yiqi's voice just fell, and he only heard the sound of a continuous crossbow. It was the crossbows on the shoulders and arms of the Tyrannosaurus that started shooting. Just now, because of the need to connect the chain, the elbows should not be too large. Therefore, these bows and crossbows have not been fired. Now, the iron cables are connected, and the bows and crossbows on the two wooden armored mechanic also begin to roar.
The sound of "ka" and "ka" can be heard endlessly. It is the sound of the crossbow machine when it is constantly being pulled. These wooden armored mechanic people are no longer equipped with ordinary three-line infantry crossbows, but with crossbow boxes. , a box of twenty crossbow bolts, the position of the installed crossbow arms, after the direct firing, the crossbow arms can be retreated and replaced with the next crossbow bolt. Zhang Gang is indeed a master craftsman. The idea of ​​​​the machine gun magazine has been advanced by 1,500 years, and it has also been perfectly reflected in this era of cold weapons.
Hundred paces away, those armored horsemen standing behind the rubble are now miserable. How happy they were when they shot Shen Tianzi just now, and how miserable they are when they shot the crossbow bolts. A strong crossbow has far more stones than a walking crossbow, usually ten or even twelve stones, but at a distance of one hundred and fifty steps, it can directly penetrate the iron armor, and it is also condescending, from more than 20 feet away. The height of the shot makes it inevitable for these armored riders of the same people to be tall and big.
In the first round of shooting, more than ten cavalry directly hit the vital points of the head and chest, and five or six cavalrymen were shot by arrows in the head of the horse. In this position, even heavy armor could not save them. When the arrow hits the horse, as long as it hits the key point, it will stand on the ground. The first group to shoot is more than 20 horsemen, and with a salvo, half of the people will fall, and the rest will also fall. They all retracted their bows and retreated, and by the way, they took out their riding shields and waved them in the air, blocking the vital points of their heads and chests.
For a while, no more bows and arrows were shot at Shen Tianzi and Shen Yiqi. The arrow rain, which was like a storm just now, stopped immediately. Shen Tianzi gritted his teeth, bounced off the ground, turned around and ran away, while Shen Yiqi on the other side, It was the same work. He wanted to turn his head and run away, but he glanced at the corpses of Ergou brothers, and then saw that there were only two sergeants left on Shen Tianzi's side. He frowned and followed Shen Tianzi's. Behind him, he ran towards the rear of the Tyrannosaurus.
The distance of more than ten paces, if it is normal, it would be almost in the blink of an eye, but now, it is at a distance of a hundred paces away from the enemy's bow and cavalry, without the cover of a shield, rushing there, this may be Shen. Tian Zi's longest sprint in his life.
Shen Tianzi gritted his teeth and ran forward desperately. From time to time, bows and arrows whizzed past his head and behind him. There were even two arrows that flew less than two steps in front of him, even if he ran slowly. Or run a few steps faster, and these arrows will hit him. As he runs, his heart beats faster, and he meditates in his heart: "Blessed by Brother Jinu, blessed by the ancestors of the Shen family, I don't want to die yet, I can't die yet, I have to make a fortune, and I have to survive."
As he thought about it, he ran like a fly, and two big axes were handed to him when he passed by, and they were in his hands, without even slowing down his speed. When the Tyrannosaurus was in front of him , he gritted his teeth, and jumped out with a stride. The bear-like body, with a gust of wind, threw heavily into the sand in front of him, and the two sergeants hurriedly threw out wooden shields, blocking his body in the air. shape.
With a bang, a wooden shield was hit by an arrow, and the arrow tip penetrated the shield surface visibly. After piercing the back of the shield, the two took a deep breath. Flying this shield, I am afraid that the arrow is Shen Tianzi. With the strength and speed of this arrow, even if he does not die, he is afraid that he will lose a hand directly.
Shen Yiqi, who was behind, also fell to the ground, and there was a long bloodstain on his wrist, but he couldn't care less at the moment, and while crawling forward quickly, he picked up the wood thrown out on both sides. Shield, block the side, just like this, following Shen Tianzi, he also climbed into the Tyrannosaurus, and the four of them lay together in a shallow pit at the back, panting heavily. , Shen Tianzi closed his eyes, his chest was heaving violently, and he muttered: "Grandma, this time I finally survived again. Xiao Zhang, Xiao Wang, your ability to dig pits, you have improved."
The two sergeants in the pit, one named Zhang Baidu and the other named Wang Wu, were both Shen Tianzi's personal soldiers. Like Shen Tianzi, they also wore chain armor. City, but at this moment they are lying together in a dirt pit.
This earth pit was dug up after the Tyrannosaurus by the two of them when Shen Tianzi went out to connect the iron cables just now. If you want to save your life, you have to dig pits and make trenches, and these are exactly what the Wudi light soldiers are good at. Their abilities are not just swords and assaults!
Zhang Baidu grinned: "That must be taught by Brother Tian Zi. We usually practice digging holes and drilling holes. We thought we were going to dig tunnels to attack the city, but I didn't expect it to be a bunker this time!"
Shen Tianzi nodded~EbookFREE.me~ Looking at the corpses of Goudan and Gouyu in the distance, another burst of sadness flooded into his heart, and he sighed: "I never thought that I would even sacrifice two good friends with a single cable. Brother, this time, at least forty people fell to the ground, and we lost so many people before we could kill a single enemy horse."
Shen Yiqi said solemnly: "Brother Tian Zi, I believe that everyone's sacrifices are meaningful. Now that the iron chain formation has been formed, and the wooden armored mechanic has also started shooting, we will definitely be able to block the enemy's attack and hold out until the reinforcements arrive! "
Before he could finish his words, he only heard the sound of "Kaka" above his head, and suddenly stopped. The arrows that were like locusts just now suddenly broke off. Shen Tianzi's face changed, and all of a sudden Sitting up: "No, the crossbow is over, prepare to attack the enemy!"
He raised his head and roared at the Tyrannosaurus: "Quick, put up your shield, the long lance is ready to sweep, the enemy cavalry is about to charge, hold on!"
After Shen Tianzi finished roaring, he picked up two big axes and licked his lips: "Now, let's see what an assault with an armored cavalry is capable of!"
