Chapter 583: Unequal Attack
Chapter 583: Unequal Attack
Time passes slowly.
Lin Qiaomei's long-range attack battalion had quietly approached, with nearly 10,000 people, and stopped in front of the trench of the Black Scarf Army Camp.
Hu Jincai looked up at the sky, but still didn't see any fire.
He calculated the time silently in his mind. At the end of midnight, Hu Jin felt that it was about time and stood up.
He was the only one on the small stage. After taking a deep breath, he lit a fuse with a tinder.
Four streams of sparks danced and climbed up to the four corners of the stage.
After a while, four bursts of sparks flashed by, and the torches stuck on the four corners flashed brightly in an instant.
Hu Jincai was wearing a wide robe with big sleeves and black and white stripes, and a red-faced thunder god mask on his face.
Dancing in the bright firelight.
The black-scarfed soldiers in the camp were startled by the sudden burst of fire in the air.
Everyone stared blankly at a strange-looking guy in the air, waving his sleeves and making weird movements.
Qiu Jie frowned and stared at Hu Jincai in mid-air, not knowing what the Zhenxi Army was up to.
Are you performing a shaman dance?
He was truly exhausted, he had never been so tired before.
The Zhenxi Army's various tactics made him always suspicious.
When two armies fight, each side sends out its elite troops and fights forward.
It's a test of courage and strength.
But what is the Zhenxi Army fighting for?
Yesterday we competed to see who ran faster, and tonight we compete to see who dances better?
Qiu Jie wanted to do whatever it took and have the team rush out to kill this damn thing first.
However, he suppressed his anxiety and thought that he should observe for a while longer so as not to be fooled by the Zhenxi Army again.
No matter what others thought, when Hu Jincai was anxiously dancing slowly on the stage, he finally saw a little light appear in the dark night.
The lights floating in the sky, like ghost lights, made him excited.
Immediately, he not only danced more vigorously, but also chanted loudly incantations that even he himself could not understand.
Seeing that the light spot in the sky had moved above the Black Scarf Army camp, Hu Jincai raised his hands and shouted loudly.
"Hurry up and obey the command!"
A group of black-turbaned soldiers stared at him, still confused, when suddenly, an earth-shaking explosion erupted in the military camp behind them.
Many soldiers standing on the partitions of the camp fence were knocked down by the shock.
Qiu Jie shuddered all over, turned his head to look at the explosion point, and then turned to look at Hu Jincai.
He was completely stunned, having never seen anything so strange.
A moment later, a series of ghostly howling sounds were heard near the explosion point.
Those were the screams of many Black Scarf soldiers who were not killed in the explosion and could not help but let out after being injured in the explosion.
It didn't end in an instant. Within just one or two breaths, the earth-shaking explosion sounded again.
The military camp was engulfed in flames again, with people and horses falling to the ground.
Such explosions spread all along the military camp, which was four or five miles wide, as if there was no end.
The Black Scarf Army finally became chaotic, with countless soldiers running away in panic.
But I didn’t know where to run, so I just kept running.
The Black Turban Army camp finally became chaotic, with countless soldiers running for their lives in panic.
This situation was particularly devastating to the black-turbaned soldiers who believed in the Virgin Mary. The power of heaven and earth was irresistible.
Qiu Jie was much more sober. Although he was confused, he still remained calm.
"Don't panic, listen to my orders, stay where you are and don't move. Anyone who dares to run will be killed without mercy!"
He shouted loudly and asked the messenger to quickly convey his order to each officer.
"Each department must control their troops. If there is any disturbance, the leader will be severely punished."
Orders were quickly conveyed.
Many troops were mobilized in front of the camp and were on high alert. No one knew how the Zhenxi Army would attack next.
Qiu Jie waited nervously.
The thunder finally stopped, and the guy dancing in the fire began to retreat slowly.
The next moment, countless hissing sounds were heard in the sky, bowstrings were tightened, and feather arrows flew everywhere.
A large number of feather arrows fell from the air like a rainstorm.
Many of the black-scarfed soldiers gathered in front of the camp fence were shot down by a hail of arrows before they could even raise their shields.
Qiu Jie shouted loudly: "Archers, fight back, fight back immediately."
Immediately, the archers of the Black Turban Army began to draw their bows and arrows and shoot them diagonally upwards.
They couldn't determine the target, so they just shot back randomly in the direction of the arrow.
The two sides began an aerial confrontation, with arrows flying back and forth in the sky.
However, more and more soldiers in the Black Scarf Army were shot down.
In the darkness, it was impossible to see clearly, and many thick arrows pierced through the shields in their hands and went straight into their bodies.
This is the new weapon and equipment used by the Zhenxi Army for long-range attacks, the foot-operated crossbow.
This type of crossbow is much larger than ordinary bows and arrows, and soldiers need to use their feet to step on the string.
It has a long range, strong attack power, and even stronger penetration.
Ordinary shields cannot defend at all.
The feather arrows shot by the Black Scarf Army fell and pierced into the ground about ten steps in front of the Zhenxi Army's long-range attack camp.
Shooting length simply cannot be achieved.
As more and more black scarf soldiers fell, Qiu Jie finally realized something was wrong and shouted orders.
"Retreat, retreat fifty steps, quickly!"
This night really made him worry and tired. He had never fought like this before. He was stepping on the ground and the sky. Was there any chance of survival?
The feather arrow attack lasted for a quarter of an hour and finally stopped.
There was silence outside the camp.
Qiu Jie breathed a sigh of relief: "Go and count the damage."
He came down from the watchtower in the military camp and came to the camp fence with his guards.
Some soldiers were nailed to the ground by thick feather arrows and were still twisting their bodies in pain.
Qiu Jie waved his hand. Injuries like this could not be treated at all, so it would be better to kill him quickly.
A guard stepped forward and stabbed the soldier's heart with a knife, ending his suffering.
Another guard pulled out the feather arrow that was stuck in the soldier's body and turned to hand it to Qiu Jie.
Qiu Jie used the torch on the camp fence to carefully observe the feather arrow in his hand.
This kind of feather arrow is one circle thicker than ordinary feather arrows and is one and a half times longer than an ordinary feather arrow.
The bloody arrowhead was extremely sharp, with barbs spread out, and it was impossible to remove it from a living person.
It looks terrifying.
"Send someone out to check."
Qiu Jie ordered.
After a while, some soldiers came back from outside the camp.
"Report, General, there are no more enemy troops within ten miles of the camp."
Qiu Jie then strode out of the camp.
A group of guards hurriedly followed, some holding torches to light the way ahead.
When Qiu Jie crossed the trench and came to a hundred steps outside the camp, the light of the guards' torches illuminated the surrounding land.
All I saw were piles of feather arrows stuck in the ground, like weeds and shrubs.
He casually pulled out a feather arrow, took a quick look at it, and knew that it was his own.
Qiu Jie took a deep breath and said, "Fuck, why didn't I ejaculate anything?"
Looking at the large number of feather arrows stuck in the ground, they didn't even touch the person's hair.
Qiu Jie shook his head and looked in the direction of the Zhenxi Army, but it was so dark that he couldn't see anything.
