    Chapter 40 The Battle of Shenmu City (14)

    The advancing Shenmu City army looked at the huge shouts that suddenly broke out from the Elante army. The sergeants in front were filled with hesitation and stopped walking.

    "What are you worried about?"

    "go ahead!"

    "go ahead!"

    ¡­¡­

    The officers shouted loudly at the soldiers who were hesitating. Under the push of the soldiers from the rear, the soldiers in the front had to continue to move forward with doubts.

    Although Blair and others were confused, the moving army still issued the order.

    Bumisxiu looked at the battlefield and said quickly: "Commander, our front army is now more than 500 meters away from the front of Elantra. Now let the archer group go to the front to shoot and kill the enemy, or should the front army attack together, or attack in an all-out manner?"

    Blair stood on a hill more than five meters high on horseback and said in a solemn voice: "We'd better be cautious and prepare the heavy infantry group in front to prevent bow and arrow shooting. The five archer groups took a step forward.  Spread out, shoot at the enemy, and test their troop dispositions."

    "yes!"

    Several messengers quickly ran forward.

    The army of Shenmu City walked 400 meters away from the Elant vanguard, and five loose groups of crossbowmen ran out of the army and walked to a place 200 meters between the two armies.

    The pulley longbowmen of Elantra hold the longbow tightly in their hands. 400 naval long-range troops, 100 crossbow troops, 600 elite pulley longbowmen troops, and 100 long-range cavalry have all opened their longbows tightly, ready to shoot at any time.

    Lin Fenghan looked at the enemy troops closely and ordered to the surrounding archery battalions: "Don't shoot arrows randomly. For the first shot, we must first severely damage their archer troops and cut off their strength. Wait until they reach 200 meters."  Within the effective shooting range, shoot.¡±

    "Um!"

    The messengers conveyed the message quickly, and the archers, centurions, and squadron leaders gave orders one after another, waiting for the shooting signal from the archers directly under the command of Lin Fenghan.

    The 500 archers from Shenmu City quickly ran to a place more than 1,000 meters wide in the middle of the army. Five centuries, each with 50 people in front and back, had just formed the second row. When they were ready to shoot, Lin Fenghan  Decisively gave the order to shoot.

    "beat!"

    "Shoot!"

    "Shoot!"

    There are more than 100 crossbowmen in the middle and more than 600 pulley archers shooting 600 long bronze arrows in front and back.  Long arrows as huge as bees and numerous in number shot straight into the crowd of archers like raindrops.

    "ah!"

    "Wow!"

    "Mom!"

    ¡­¡­

    In an instant, two hundred people suffered misfortune and were shot by bows and arrows. Then, the navy's long-range troops on the left quickly shot long arrows, and more than 400 long arrows shot into the crowd of Shenmu City archers from the flank.

    "ah!"

    "ah!"

    "ah!"

    ¡­¡­

    The archer troops of Shenmu City, which suffered attacks from three sides, had already suffered heavy losses after firing fifty or sixty long arrows. More than 300 of the more than 500 people were injured. The archers who suffered a heavy blow ignored the orders of the centurions and were afraid.  ran towards the rear.

    Blair looked at the heavy losses of the archer troops, and his heart trembled, and he shouted angrily: "Attack!"

    "The whole army attacks!"

    "The whole army attacks!"

    ¡­¡­

    The huge flag was flying, the drummers were beating the drums hard, and the many centurions of Shenmu City were excited, shouting loudly, and led the troops to charge forward.

    Blair looked at the battle just now and said to Boumisio: "Now I finally understand why you failed before. Elante's bow and arrow are so powerful. What kind of bow and arrow can shoot so far and so hard."

    "Hey! I was wondering about it too? But a few days ago, I sent a detailed investigation to get some information about their bows and arrows. Our bows and arrows are only 1.2 to 1.5 meters long, while their bows and arrows are only 1.7 meters long.  2.2 meters long, very huge. And there is a gadget on both ends of their bows that can save the user's physical strength and increase the archer's shooting speed. Because the time was too short, I tested the 2-meter long bow closely.  I found that the larger the size of the bow and arrow, the greater the power, but the strength required also increased. Large bows and arrows can shoot arrows 300 meters away, which is very powerful. Unfortunately, due to the short time, we did not have time to change the equipment, so we had to make do with it.  Let's start a war." Bumi Xiu explained in detail.

    The hundred-man team in front of Shenmu City walked quicklyAs they advanced, the huge army brought forth shouts of killing.  Brightly colored military flags were flying in the battlefield, and the army of Shenmu City was advancing towards the Elante army at a rapid speed like a torrent.

    In front of the Elante army, the expressions of all the soldiers, including Lin Fenghan, changed, and everyone nervously clenched their spears and bows.

    "Shoot!"

    "Shoot in the middle!"

    Whoosh!

    Whoosh!

    Whoosh!

    Amidst the huge tide, Elantra's archers once again raised their bows and fired.

    Whoosh!

    Whoosh!

    Whoosh!

    ¡­¡­

    The distance of 500 meters took forty to fifty seconds under the charge of everyone. Elantra's archers quickly ran back after shooting three rounds of bows and arrows.

    Davout and others stood in the gap of the wooden pile and looked nervously at the army in front.

    200 meters!

    100 metres!

    50 meters!

    Every time the Shenmu City army advanced 100 meters, about 200 wounded soldiers would fall down. Some of these injured soldiers were lucky enough to retreat, while more of the fallen wounded soldiers were stepped on and injured by the soldiers at the rear.  Trampled to death, at a distance of more than 400 meters, the army of Shenmu City had already killed three to four hundred people, and five to six hundred people were shot and squeezed, losing most of their combat effectiveness.

    30 meters!

    Davout and numerous forward infantry centurions shouted: "Heavy javelin, throw!"

    "Heavy javelin, shoot!"

    "Heavy javelin, shoot!"

    ¡­¡­

    The retreat of the archers in the rear left a lot of space for the infantry, and many spearmen and swordsmen spread out.  More than 1,200 1.5-meter-long heavy javelins, carrying huge gravity, pierced into the rolling crowd one after another like barracudas soaring out of the sky with huge momentum.

    "ah!"

    "Ah! My hand!"

    "My chest was stabbed!"

    "My feet!"

    "my face!"

    ¡­¡­

    More than 1,200 spears were inserted back and forth into the Shenmu City army within 20 to 50 meters.  The huge javelins pierced most of the shields with great power. Numerous javelins pierced directly into the armor, bodies and necks of the Shenmu City warriors from mid-air.

    The more than 1,000 Shenmu City infantrymen and the more than 500 noble coalition light infantrymen in the front row were crippled in an instant.  More than 700 people had their shields and armor pierced by javelins. Many soldiers in the chaotic team fled in fear. The light infantry of the Noble Alliance on the front left wing, which suffered heavy losses, fled to the left and rear, despite the knights shouting wildly.  To no avail.

    Whoosh!

    Whoosh!

    Whoosh!

    ¡­¡­

    Again, bows and arrows were fired rapidly from the front and center of the camp towards the turbulent left-wing light infantry of the noble coalition. Under the attack of numerous bows and arrows, the remaining knights and attendants who were holding on did not have the courage to stay. They held their shields and pointed towards the empty space on the left rear.  They fled everywhere, leaving the wounded soldiers with spears and swords stuck in their bodies to be struck by Elante's bows and arrows.

    "ah!"

    "Wow!"

    "It hurts!"

    ¡­¡­

    Many unfortunate wounded soldiers died slowly with fear and resentment in their pain after being shot again.  The lightly-armed spearmen of the Second Legion in the rear changed their colors when they saw the tragic situation ahead, but the elites were elites after all, and these soldiers bravely moved forward under the urging of the officers.

    The nearly 300 Shenmu City archers who had withdrawn from the first line of battle and the centurions of more than 500 archers on the right wing seized the fighter planes and opened their bows 200 meters away to shoot arrows at the soldiers on the left and center wings of Elantra directly opposite.  .

    Whoosh!

    Whoosh!

    Whoosh!

    ¡­¡­

    Nearly a thousand bows and arrows were shot into the battle formation when the Elante soldiers were gathering after throwing their spears. In an instant, two to three hundred people were injured.

    "Kill!"

    "Go!"

    "Brothers, we are already close to them. As long as we chop down this wooden pile, we can break into their ranks."

    "Kill!"

    ¡­¡­

    The tenacious three to four hundred noble heavy infantry on the right wing of the Shenmu City coalition roared, and with great courage, they rushed through the gap in the wooden piles and rushed into the newly formed soldiers of Waterdeep City.

    The spear is thrusting!

    The sword is chopping!

    The warriors are roaring with their bronze swords!

    ?Within more than 20 seconds, the bloody aristocratic coalition broke into the soldiers on Elant's left flank.

    The elite troops of Shenmu City's Second Legion in the middle wing ignored the forwards who suffered heavy casualties and marched forward bravely, stepping on the corpses.  The soldiers at the rear smoothly pulled out the swords and spears from the corpse, and projected them into Elante's position with great power.

    "ah!"

    "My shoulder!"

    "I was struck with a spear."

    ¡­¡­

    Davout looked at the enemy in front with red eyes, and shouted: "Heavy infantry, form a formation, let me hold it back."

    In the front two to three thousand meters wide position, only the infantry on the right wing of Elant faced the least pressure. With most of the soldiers on the left wing of Shenmu City fleeing, few soldiers had the courage to rush towards them.

    Rana looked at the front line with sharp eyes and said seriously to Lin Fenghan: "The enemy's attack is too fierce. Our new troops in Waterdeep City on the left wing are about to be unable to hold on. Davout's center wing troops are facing the enemy.  For a major blow, as long as we wait for a minute for some enemy troops to break into the guardrail of the center wing and outflank them, Davout will be in danger."

    "Well! It's time to retreat."

    Lin Fenghan nodded in agreement and shouted loudly to the cavalry messenger: "Order the army in front to retreat slowly, pay attention to the rhythm."

    "Order the trebuchet troops to prepare flame bombs and be ready to launch at any time!"

    Lin Fenghan turned around and said sincerely to Rana: "Rana, please bring the heavy infantry to meet Davout's troops. Don't save your javelins and pay attention to the situation."

    "yes!"

    Lana nodded, took two elite centurions of heavy infantry and walked out quickly along the built bridge.  In front of the camp, many archer troops did not dare to continue shooting. They followed the bridges and planks and crossed the five-meter-long trench into the military camp.

    The five-meter-long command flag waved to the rear. The fast light cavalry quickly informed Davout of the retreat. Davout breathed a sigh of relief and shouted loudly: "Brothers, retreat!"

    "Retreat!"

    "Retreat!"

    ¡­¡­

    The urban management troops of Waterdeep City shouted happily, saying that they had lost thirty or forty people in the close encounter just now.

    "Retreating?"

    The infantrymen of the Second Legion in the center wing of Shenmu City had surprise in their eyes. This tenacious force allowed them to advance five or six meters tightly in one minute. The officers in front shouted: "They escaped, let's charge!"

    ah!

    Bah!

    Poof!

    Lines of sand and fine ash were thrown from the hands of these Waterdeep City infantrymen, and the huge dust confused the eyes of the Shenmu City soldiers.

    The Waterdeep City troops who had served as city administrators were very cunning. They had developed cunning characters during their long stay there. A lot of dust, sand, and vicious anger mixed with pepper were thrown from the hands of these people.  The work of catching thieves and prisoners made them very fast. The Waterdeep City infantry abandoned their shields and ran towards the Elantine camp very quickly.

    Rana looked at the situation ahead and quickly shouted to the thirty or forty soldiers who had walked out of the tunnel of the camp: "Everyone come back, we don't need to attack, they have already come back."

    "Really!"

    "Bravo!"

    "yes!"

    ¡­¡­

    Many soldiers in the camp had dull eyes, looking in surprise at the soldiers who discarded the long contradiction cards, held broad swords in their hands, and thrust at a speed of 100 to 20 to 30 meters, holding out their thumbs in admiration.
