Chapter 1008

Seeing that a disaster was about to happen, Bai Wei's hands were about to be cut off by the sharp sword, Cai Yuanlong beside her couldn't help but slammed a heavy palm.

"Boom!" With a sound, Cai Yuanlong's heavy palm pressed hard on the centurion's breastplate, making a crisp slap on the opponent's thick scale-shaped body armor.

The centurion was hit hard by this heavy palm and took a step back. He couldn't hold the sword that fell, and fell to the ground with a "bang", so naturally he couldn't hurt Bai Wei.

Bai Wei took advantage of the situation and locked the arm of the centurion wearing thick fish-scale armor, capturing him alive.

The centurion has thick fish-scale armor to protect his body. Cai Yuanlong's powerful palm strike that can crack stones, the layers of fish-scale armor cushioned and absorbed a large part of the strength, did not cause much damage to the centurion. He just felt a heavy blow hit him suddenly, and his body shook violently, but it didn't hurt his internal organs and bones.

The centurion was subdued by Cai Yuanlong and Bai Wei. Although the process was short, the impact was great. Seeing that their captain was attacked, the defenders near the city gate suddenly panicked and confused. , They showed their weapons one after another, and with a "hula", more than 100 people quickly formed a semi-arc battle formation, and surrounded Cai Yuanlong and Bai Wei.

When the members of the exploration team not far away saw this scene, they also opened their guns, loaded their bullets, and raised their weapons to aim at the soldiers defending the city.

"Crossbowmen on alert!" At this moment, there was a shout from the city gate tower.

After the shouting, dozens of crossbowmen with bows and crossbows were exposed on the arrow stacks above the city gate, each of them was waiting for the battle, and stared at the exploration team more than [-] meters away from the city gate. players.

The castle of this border walled city was built according to the high standard of an important defensive stronghold. The gate tower and wall are more than two feet high and nearly ten feet thick. The castle is not easy.

"Listen, people above the city gate, your people are in my hands now, if you want him to live, open the city gate and let us in! Otherwise, you just wait to collect the corpse!" Cai Yuanlong pulled He took out a dagger, put it on the centurion's throat, looked at the crossbowman on the gate tower, and shouted loudly.He knew that the biggest threat to the exploration team now was the dozens of crossbowmen ambush above the city gate and under the arrow stacks.

As long as someone gives an order, the members of the exploration team who have no time to retreat and evade are likely to suffer serious casualties.

The farthest distance between the two sides is no more than 60 meters. This distance is the best shooting distance for crossbowmen. Those crossbowmen who have undergone strict training are still very sure of their accuracy.If the two sides meet fire at this distance, even if the members of the exploration team maximize the firepower advantage of automatic weapons, they will still pay a heavy price in casualties.

The dozens of crossbowmen under the arrow stacks on the gate tower may not be the only force on hand of the opponent. If the opponent still has reinforcements, the exploration team will be in great danger. It is possible to encounter a catastrophe in which the entire army is wiped out.

"Captain Lan, don't worry. I will repay you. You died for the empire. The empire will never forget your contribution." At the moment of this tense confrontation, a middle-aged man's voice came from the gate tower. The sound, judging from the direction of the sound, the opponent may still be a cat under the arrow stack, without even showing its head.

The snipers in the exploration team all shook their heads and sighed. They were waiting for the commander of the other side to show up. As long as they could kill the commander above the gate tower of the other side with one shot, it would inevitably cause a wave of panic among the enemy troops above the gate tower. In the chaos, the exploration team took advantage of the situation to launch a fierce attack. It is very likely that at a much smaller cost of casualties, they will completely suppress the archers ambush under the arrow stacks of the gate tower. Even if they cannot capture this pass, they can choose to retreat calmly of.

"Bowmen are ready!" the voice sounded again.

The captured centurion under the city gate looked panicked and nervous, and shouted loudly: "Moke, I take good care of you on weekdays. Without the meritorious service that I brought my brothers to die for you, you can be promoted to be a general." ? Now my brother is in trouble, but you cross the river and tear down the bridge, are you worthy of me?"

The centurion's cry sounded very sad and helpless. Now he has become a hostage in the hands of the enemy, and his life and death are no longer up to him.

Judging from the reaction of the enemy troops above the city gate, the situation is already critical, and the opponent may open fire at any time. Cai Yuanlong's heart was already in his throat, and he said anxiously to Bai Wei next to him: "Xiao Wei, hurry up and retreat!" Get behind me, with me and this centurion standing in front, you should be fine."

"Dalong, who do you think I am, Bai Wei? Am I a coward who will retreat when I encounter danger and let my comrades block crossbow arrows for me?" Bai Wei resolutely refused to retreat, shaking her head and rejecting Cai Yuanlong's kindness.

"Xiaowei, there is no time. You are a sniper, and your marksmanship is much better than mine. I believe that if you survive, you will help the team more than me." Cai Yuanlong continued to persuade.

Just when Cai Yuanlong persuaded Bai Wei to retreat behind him and wait for an opportunity to attack the enemy on the gate tower, a shout came from the gate tower: "Crossbowman, target the enemy under the gate, prepare..." The shout went on. Without shouting completely, I saw a vigorous figure leaping up the nearly two-foot-high city wall with a light vertical leap. The enemy guarding the city were all stunned and dumbfounded. No one made a timely and effective response. Only a few people looked panic-stricken, pointed at the person coming and shouted, "There is someone!"

Cai Yuanlong and Bai Wei downstairs of the city gate only saw a figure that was as fast as lightning and as fast as thunder, flashing past them with a "swish", and when they reacted, the figure had already turned around. Go up the city gate and upstairs.

"I see who dares to move?" At this time, Ye Xiu's voice came down from the gate tower.

In one hand, Ye Xiu was holding a middle-aged man with shining armor and disheveled hair. The helmet of the middle-aged man had already been knocked off the city wall by Ye Xiu.

Dozens of crossbowmen ambushing on the gate tower all turned their weapons and aimed at Ye Xiu.

The pressure on the exploration team members downstairs of the city gate suddenly eased.

Cai Yuanlong immediately seized the favorable opportunity and whispered to Bai Wei beside him, "Retreat, retreat out of the shooting range of the crossbow arrows, hurry up!"

Bai Wei didn't hesitate anymore, followed Cai Yuanlong, dragged the centurion, and the three of them retreated together.
