Chapter 43: The bow is like a thunderbolt


None of the arrows fired by the Huns flew to the top of the beacon, and the farthest was only inserted into the wall of the Great Wall.This is obvious, although the same pound, if the bow and arrow are thrown, the distance is farther than that of the crossbow machine, but the beacon is as high as four zhang, 8 meters high, if you want to shoot the arrow up, at least close to sixty or seventy paces to shoot up.There are still hundreds of years since the Huns were equipped with stirrups, and the archers were not good at riding on moving horses.Before they reached range, the condescending beacon had an advantage.But the advantage only exists in Zhao Hu'er alone."

Don't be in a hurry to release the crossbow, wait for the Huns to get close before shooting."

Zhao Hu'er had been in Fengsui for so many years, and he was full of experience in how to deal with the Huns, so he asked Ren Hong and Han Dangdang not to shoot the crossbow in a hurry, while he stood up and pulled his bow.Ren Hong knew that each of Zhao Hu'er's bows was made by himself, and the materials used were not the same as the Han army's horn bows, made of stubborn sheep's horns, fish glue, and elm, and the outside of the bow was wrapped with birch bark, which was rich in oil and could protect the bow from moisture.Zhao Hu'er would make a bow every autumn, take a year of work, and take it out to hunt the following winter, not to get too much, but to test whether the bow can withstand the test of the cold, if it cracks, it is a waste bow.After years of production, elimination, and improvement, now Zhao Hu'er generally only carries two bows, one long and one short.The Han bow is generally a short-tip bow, with a hard pull and a relatively fast arrow speed, while the Western Regions and the Xiongnu commonly use a long-tip bow, which has a soft pull and a relatively slow arrow speed, but the range is farther."

If you want to shoot from a long distance, you have to use a long bow, but if the enemy is close to the bow, you have to change to a short bow."

In addition to the bow, what is the direction of the wind, what distance and what angle is used to shoot, whether to use heavy arrows or light arrows, and depending on the opponent's armor, whether to use Mitsubishi arrows or two-winged and three-winged iron clusters, there are all knowledge.And Ren Hong had already discovered that Zhao Huer's way of buttoning the strings was also different from the Mongolian string fastening method of the ordinary Han soldiers and Huns, not with the thumb, but with the index finger, which was probably related to the injury to the thumb of his right hand.Zhao Hu'er knew very well the range of the other party, and the wind direction was also favorable to his side, and he was not afraid of the arrows inserted into the wall of the beacon at all, and moved with the movement of the target after pulling the bow, and suddenly loosened the string, and ninety steps away, a Hun rider who was about to dismount and shoot on foot fell in response!"

Good!"

Ren Hong and Han Dangdang saw this scene in the peeping hole, and immediately applauded, although they were outnumbered, but Zhao Hu'er's first arrow was really a morale boost!

Zhao Hu'er shot three arrows in one go, killing one and wounding another, and the last one missed a little.Then he couldn't stand up, because of the kung fu of the three arrows, the Huns had quickly entered the range of the upward firing, although they stood very scattered, after opening their bows, they all aimed at the beacon position!

The scene of nearly 100 bows firing in unison is amazing, like a thunderbolt!"

Keep your head down!"

With an exclamation, it was sparsely raining in the sky, and it was a rain of arrows.Jingle bell, this is the sound of arrows hitting the iron pot, because there are only two iron helmets, Lu Guangsu put the iron pot on his head, it is really useful, those falling arrows can't hurt him in the slightest.Being calm in the rain of arrows, talking and laughing, this is the scene that Ren Hong imagined, but he didn't expect that one day he would really be able to achieve it.In the face of the iron helmets of the Han army, the bones and stone arrow clusters of the Huns appeared weak and weak, coupled with the angle problem, most of the arrows were pasting the beacon and passing over the sky, so there was no imaginary horror, they only needed to shrink by the female wall, and they were basically safe.On the contrary, the Huns did not have thick armor and iron armor, and once they were hit by the strong crossbow iron clusters of the Han army, they would not die or be crippled.The Huns did not have the intention of shooting the people on the Sui to death, but just to suppress their firepower, so that dozens of Huns could get close to the Great Wall and capture a beacon, but in the end they had to rely on white-knuckle combat.Although the Huns kept shooting arrows, so that the flints could not stand up, the six-stone crossbow of Ren Hong and others still looked at the Huns who abandoned their horses and walked, holding knives and axles, ready to kill the Huns who were ready to enter the Great Wall!

It's a pity that the prediction was wrong, the first shot missed, and when the light bolt arrived, the target had not yet run there.Ren Hong didn't practice the crossbow for a long time, and the dead target fifty steps away was eight out of twelve shots, what if it was replaced with a live target?

The difficulty rises exponentially, and you can burn high incense as soon as you hit it.So Zhao Hu'er, the archer, was really envious, so he aimed again, took a deep breath, was patient, and waited for the Huns he was looking at to approach, and then he got closer, so close that he could see the beard on his face and the stains on his felt hat, and then he pulled the hanging knife!

Hit!

It's a pity that the man is not dead, he struggles to stand up, limps back, Zhao Hu'er told Ren Hong that the Huns will not fight to the death, and will withdraw from the battle once they are injured or frustrated.Ren Hong aimed at the back of the Hun and prepared to make up for a crossbow, but before he could wind it, an arrow shot from a distance and nailed it to the edge of the hole for peeping at the enemy, so frightened that he quickly hid his body behind the female wall."

Ouch!"

Lu Guangsu, who was another peeping into the enemy's hole, was even more miserable, and another arrow shot straight near, hitting his hand, and blood was dripping for a while!"

There's a famous Condor archer on the other side."

It is said that during the Jing period, the Xiongnu entered the upper county, the emperor made a noble man from Li Guang to attack the Xiongnu, the noble man with dozens of horses, but was killed by three Huns with a kite on horseback, and finally Li Guang took a hundred horses to chase in person, only to kill the two of them, born a person, a question, sure enough, it was the eagle shooter.The Condor Archer is the title of the marksman among the Huns, and Zhao Huer found the shooter among the dozens of Huns who kept advancing and firing their bows.The man was mixed in with the crowd, but although he had a bow in his hand, he did not shoot arrows easily, and only when a person appeared or peeked into the enemy's hole did he strike a fatal blow!

It was he who fired two arrows in a row, which frightened Ren Hong and injured Lu Guangsu.This is troublesome, the archers of the Huns are constantly approaching and shooting, and more than a dozen arrows are shot up in every breath, so that everyone can't raise their heads to fight back, all rely on peeping at the enemy's hole to send a crossbow to kill and injure the other party, and now the condor shooter is aiming at the enemy's hole, who shows his head to shoot whom, let them do?

Ren Hong lowered his body and walked to the other side: "Zhao Hu'er, can you shoot the condor shooter?"

”"Yes is yes."

Zhao Hu'er shook his head: "But as soon as I show my head, I'm afraid I will shoot him first." ”"What if he was shooting somewhere else?""

Then he's a dead target."

Zhao Hu'er groaned slightly: "You can give it a try!"

”Ren Hong smiled: "I have a way!"

”He looked at Lu Guangsu, who was squeezing the bloody tiger's mouth and humming softly: "Guangsu, you go to the second layer, let Zhang Qianren wrap your wounds, and leave the iron pot to me!"

”Lu Guangsu promised to retreat to the next floor, while Ren Hong took the heavy iron pot and brought it to the hole where the enemy was peeping, and from a distance, it looked like a human head wearing a helmet!

Jingling!

In an instant, an arrow shot over, hitting the iron pot, the force was so great that Ren Hong's hands were numb!

But there was a burst of ecstasy in his heart: "It's now!"

”Without waiting for Ren Hong to speak, Zhao Hu'er had already taken the risk at this critical moment, quickly got up and drew his bow, and shot an arrow towards the position of the condor shooter!

But the next moment, he also fell to the ground with his head up, and an arrow flew past his ear, directly shooting the pinna!

Zhao Hu'er covered her left ear and grinned in pain: "That Condor Shooter is so powerful, he can open his bow again so soon." ”"It's too risky, it's okay."

Did it fail?

Ren Hong regretted greatly in his heart, this blow failed, with the cunning and sharpness of the condor shooter, they were afraid that they would never have a chance again."

No, I got it too."

Zhao Hu'er was very confident, and grinned: "Among the Huns, there is one less Condor Shooter!"

”"I really hit it."

Han Dang glanced at the enemy's hole, and just happened to see a corpse being dragged back.When Ren Hong and the others were peering at the enemy's hole again, although the Hun archers also tried to shoot at this, they no longer had the right head just now."

The Huns have already suffered three casualties, and if they kill and wound some more, I am afraid that they will hesitate to retreat."

The Han soldiers beheaded the Huns, and they could get tens of thousands of money, but on the Huns' side, they only got a reward of a bad wine, but they were prisoners and could stay as their own slaves, so their combat enthusiasm was a question mark.Now Ren Hong, all they can do is to fight to kill and injure more Hulu when the Huns climb over the tiger and cut the trenches, so that they can retreat in the face of difficulties.The Tiger Fall and the Trench were the original fortifications of the Beacon, which tightly surrounded the thick gate of the dock courtyard in and out of the Great Wall.In addition, in the past ten days, Ren Hong also let the flint soldiers use poplar wood to cut into thistle terrestris, sprinkled around the beacon, although the Huns are unlikely to be stupid enough to eat arrows before hitting the horses, but for those who run fast, stepping on it is enough to pierce the flesh and weaken its combat effectiveness.But it turns out that when the Huns were attacked by the Huns, there were hardly any eggs to use those Huns who were holding small shields, holding knives and axels after they arrived at the Great Wall more than ten paces away, but did not stupidly step on these traps, but scattered to both sides and retreated "The Huns gave up?"

”Before Ren Hong could be happy, a warning sounded on the second floor of Fengsui."

Suichang, Hu Lu is coming from Sene!"

Ren Hong was shocked, and he went to the other side to take a look, and sure enough, there were dozens of Huns, who were running quickly from the east side next to the inside of the Great Wall, and the leader was a hundred horsemen with two handfuls of hair on his head!

Han Dangdang scolded: "This group of god-killing Hulu is really treacherous, they actually sent some people to climb the Great Wall from a distance and come in!"

”More than 100 people who are emotionally positive are just bluffing to attract Ren Hong's attention?

The real attacking force came in from two miles east of Po Sui, where there was no tiger falling, wading through Tiantian and climbing over the Great Wall.Sure enough, the Huns are not stupid at all, once they get close, the confrontation will be over, and the white-knuckle battle may come faster than Ren Hong and they imagined!"

They're outside the dock!"

Zhang Qianren issued another warning.The Huns approached the beacon without hindrance, using the dock wall as a shield so that the beacon could not shoot them.And began to bang on the door of the dockyard, again and again, as if hitting everyone's hearts.Although Ren Hong and their efforts were to shoot arrows from the flint, they suppressed the volley of the Huns outside the Saiwai, and secondly, there were too few people, so after a while, the Huns in the Great Wall broke through the dock door and entered the courtyard!"

Woohoo!"

A black shadow barked wildly and pounced on the head of the hundred horsemen, but he slashed him to the ground, and his wailing convulsions stopped twice.Zhang Qianren let out a grief-stricken wail: "They killed Da Hei!"
