Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 520 Attack and Defense of Ten Mile Fort ([-])
Ordinary archers have to wear thumb pulls on their fingers when shooting arrows for a long time, but Ye Chen's physical strength naturally doesn't need it.

It's just that when he pulled the bowstring just now, there was a light snap, the bow arm of the longbow straightened up, and the broken string almost hit Ye Chen's face.Ye Chen's face twitched, and he threw the broken bow at his feet helplessly.This bow has just been used continuously, and now it finally can't support it.This is also the fifth bow he has worn out today. The two high-grade three-stone hard bows that were carefully maintained in the Song Army camp in Shilibao were all destroyed. The military-standard one-stone hard bows he uses now are not of good quality and will be easily damaged. .In fact, if he shoots arrows at such a frequency, an ordinary person would have already injured his arm, but Ye Chen's body naturally wouldn't.

Ye Chen's own eight-stone bow took a lot of strength every time, not to mention that it was unnecessary to kill these ordinary soldiers, so he used the military standard hard bow.

"Bring the bow!" Ye Chen turned his wrist after taking the longbow handed over by Huang Louping himself.He can shoot left and right, and when one arm is tired, he will switch to the other arm. Every time he shoots an arrow, the accuracy is unimaginable, so what he understands now is how to control the strength, use the least effort, or even a little effort to shoot the enemy. shoot.

"When there are less than [-] arrows in the city, tell Liu Shijun to give them all to me so that they don't waste a lot." Ye Chen tried the hard bow and said to Huang Louping next to him.

Talking like this, Ye Chen stared at the enemy formation on the opposite side, his hand suddenly stopped. There are still about 300 enemy troops out this time, but there are more than [-] people in front of them.

As the people approached, Ye Chen's face darkened a little bit. It was even uglier than when he was first besieged by the party's 2 cavalry in the Ten Mile Fort at noon.These more than 300 people are not members of the party, but Han Chinese, and about [-] of them have their hands tied behind their backs.

Those with their hands tied behind their backs were more than 40 soldiers of the Song Dynasty, and the others were ordinary people in villages and towns near the State of Song.

Liu Shijun recognized immediately that the more than 40 Song soldiers were from the two guards guarding the two beacon towers leading to Huangjiabao and Qingzhou.These people are his subordinates.Now they and some people in nearby villages and towns were driven to the front of the battle and forced to walk towards the city wall.

On the city wall, thousands of eyes were watching the movements of these 300 people. It was not known whether they were trying to persuade them to surrender, were they being forced to act as human shields, or purely to affect the morale of the defenders.There are also those who hope that Song Jun can open the city gate and go out of the city to save people by luck.Of course, even Tuoba Zhenli, who ordered this, did not have much hope that the Song army would come out of the city to save people.

"Give orders to Hei Yue and Liu Shijun!" Ye Chen didn't hesitate for long, and whispered to Huang Louping next to him, "Let Liu Shijun order to open the city gate, and Hei Yue will bring [-] black cavalry to the city to prepare! Hearing my order, go out of the city to rescue people!"

Huang Louping hesitated for a moment, bowed and agreed, then turned around and passed the order to the two of them.

At the same time, Ye Chen beckoned, and Hu Sanguang beside him had already ordered someone to hand over Ye Chen's eight-stone bow.

At this time, there was a scream from below the city, Ye Chen looked up, and saw a party member holding a bloody arm dangling in his hand.And a captured soldier in front of him had rolled to the ground, his right arm was gone, and blood was dripping all over the ground.When he was exhausted from rolling, another party member stepped forward, stepped on his back, and chopped off his remaining arms and legs.The captured soldier of the Song Army just now wanted to resist, and he didn't want to be a human shield for the party members, so he was tortured by cutting off his limbs by the party members.

Seeing this, Ye Chen's eyes were frightened with coldness. After hearing Huang Louping's order, Liu Shijun, who had just run over to dissuade Ye Chen, was stared at by this look. He felt cold in his heart. He didn't dare to say anything, and turned directly to the soldiers next to him. Order to prepare to open the city gate.

Ye Chen said to Liu Shijun: "Don't let your people shoot arrows, just watch it. Alright, now you can order to open the city gate."

As he spoke, Ye Chen had already raised the eight-stone bow in his hand. At this time, more than 300 captives were still a hundred steps away from the city. In addition to the more than 30 party members who drove them away, 300 party members who were about to attack the city and one The cavalry, also numbering [-] and preparing to charge the city, was a hundred paces behind the more than [-] captives.

From the first arrow shot out like a streamer, no one on the top of the city could clearly see Ye Chen's arrow and his movements.In short, after more than 30 screams, more than 300 party members hiding behind more than 30 prisoners all died.Within four to five breaths, he shot nearly forty arrows, and shot and killed the party member hiding half of his body behind the captives at a distance of a hundred steps, and none of the arrows missed. This has surpassed the scope of ordinary people's comprehension.

Not to mention how shocked the people on the top of the city and the party members in the back of the city were, as early as Ye Chen shot the first arrow, the city gate opened, and Hei Yue rushed out with five hundred black cavalry like a black whirlwind.

Without Ye Chen and the people at the top of the city reminding them, the more than 300 Han people ran towards Shilibao with all their strength.

Although the incident happened suddenly, the reaction of the party members was not slow. The moment the black cavalry left the city, five thousand cavalrymen of the party also rushed over. The five hundred black cavalry still stopped in front of Dangxiang's five thousand cavalry.

Although the black cavalry is powerful, the party cavalry is not much weaker than the black cavalry, so five hundred black cavalry are naturally no match against five thousand party cavalry.If it was an ordinary cavalry soldier of the Song Dynasty, they might not have the courage to go to the field at this time.But the black knights were different, Ye Chen gave them an order, even if they were to die, they would not hesitate at all.

However, Ye Chen naturally didn't want them to die, or exchange their lives for the lives of more than 300 common people.

The eight-stone bow was fully drawn, and the pure zhenqi in the body was made extremely manic by Ye Chen's special secret method, and then forcibly poured into the special steel arrow developed by the Weapons Department, and shot it out.

When the arrow was shot, Ye Chen's face turned pale, which showed that the arrow consumed him a lot.

As soon as the thunderous sound of piercing the air sounded, Ye Chen's arrow had already shot at the front of the [-] party cavalry who were rushing towards the [-] black cavalry.

This man is a leader of the Tuoba clan, and is Tuoba Zhenli's younger brother Tuoba Zhentie. He is also famous for his bravery in the Seven Departments of the Party. Next, there is no power to fight back at all.

The steel arrow pierced through his heart, and shot on the chest of a cavalry behind him, and it also passed through, and so on, until it hit the seventh man.

This process is a long story, but in fact, it was only a moment from when Ye Chen shot the arrow to when the steel arrow pierced the seven people. Even the bodies of the six people in front were still moving forward under the inertia of the horses. , has not yet fallen.

In fact, the bodies of these seven people would never fall down, because their bodies suddenly exploded from the waist to the upper half from the inside.To be precise, the point where the steel arrow pierced by Ye Chen was the center point of the explosion, which exploded like a human bomb.

Imagine the concept of seven human bombs exploding in the running cavalry group. More than 100 bones, countless flesh and muscle pieces, etc., have all become sharp weapons and shot in all directions. The cavalry around and under them The war horses were immediately hit, and the screams of the party cavalry and the painful neighing of the horses sounded at the same time, and then these war horses, which had suffered heavy flesh injuries and felt very painful, but would not die for a while, began to go crazy and screamed to the surroundings. Rampage.

Five thousand cavalrymen, seven line cavalrymen's upper body exploded, but the range of injuries was actually very limited, the number of injured cavalrymen and war horses was actually no more than a hundred.If these injured cavalry and horses died directly, or lost the ability to move, at most this small range of cavalry would be affected, and the overall cavalry team would still not be affected much and continue to kill the five hundred black cavalry.

However, if nearly a hundred wounded and frenzied war horses crashed around, and nearly a hundred cavalrymen covered in blood and covered with thin bones and pieces of meat were screaming terribly, how would this affect a cavalry that was sprinting with all its strength? But it is unparalleled.

In an instant, nearly a thousand cavalrymen in all directions were impacted to varying degrees, or fell down, or were forced to stop, or slammed into the route.And the cavalry galloping behind or beside them was also affected. Under the chain reaction, when the 1000 cavalry rushed to the front of the [-] black cavalry, nearly a thousand cavalry fell from the middle of the [-] party cavalry to both sides. On the ground, some of these people died and some were injured. In addition, more than [-] cavalry were affected, blocked their way, were forced to stop, or turned, and were unable to sprint.What really rushed ahead of the five hundred black cavalry was a thousand party cavalry on each side.

The party members live in the bitter cold of the northwest, and the living conditions are extremely difficult. These cavalrymen have been fighting and killing people since they learned how to ride horses in their teens. Not to mention their rich combat experience, their fighting will is the most terrifying.So even if they found that most of the [-] cavalry on their side had fallen or were forced to stop, and the reason for this to happen was so weird and terrifying.But the [-] cavalrymen on each side still gritted their teeth and rushed forward without fear. In an instant, the two cavalrymen had a very tacit understanding of the division of labor. A cavalry bypassed the black cavalry and rushed towards the opened city gate.

However, they never thought that since an archer can shoot such an earth-shattering arrow, it is possible to shoot the same second arrow.

On the top of the city, Ye Chen shot the second arrow, his face turned pale, and his arms began to tremble slightly.With such a powerful arrow, even with his physical body and true energy, he couldn't shoot a few arrows.
