255 Longbowmen

Those werewolf cavalry were more like chicken thieves. They were originally smaller than centaurs, but those giant wolves were also very flexible and kept jumping, turning and moving while running. This greatly made it more difficult for Xiao Feng to chase them down, and also made them

Got away a lot.

With the killing effect unsatisfactory, Xiao Feng had to focus all his attention on the heavy armored infantry who were slowly running backwards. These tauren and pig-headed men were still the best targets, and they were swept down by him in an instant.

Hundreds.

But just when he was about to clear out all the orcs on the battlefield in front of him, a strong sense of crisis suddenly surged into his heart. He lowered his head almost instinctively, and then heard a crisp, clanging sound.

The sound of metal hitting.

When he squatted on the ground and looked up, he saw that the steel baffle in front of his M1930 heavy machine gun had been penetrated directly by a spear. Half of the spear's body had penetrated the steel plate. If he hadn't just avoided it,

In time, this spear would be enough to pierce his face.

What's going on? Before he could figure it out, a strong sense of crisis surged into his heart. Xiao Feng rolled several times quickly on the ground almost instinctively, and then he saw several black shadows falling from the sky, fiercely.

It hit the shooting position where he had just been standing.

In front of this shooting position, Kyle specially added a thick stone parapet, and the top of the head was also covered with thick wooden boards, which were paved several layers. However, after the black shadows fell, the shooting position was immediately destroyed.

Xiao Feng took a closer look and realized that those black shadows were actually spears falling from the sky, but these spears looked very strange.

The iron three-edged spear head still has a few rays of cold light, and the spear body is made of an unknown wooden pole. It can be one to two meters long. Just looking at the length, it is indeed the same as the spears used by humans.

It's very similar. Judging from the shaking of the spear body after it hits the ground, it can be said that the spear body is very tough.

But the tail of the spear still had arrow feathers. When he saw those arrow feathers, Xiao Feng immediately understood what kind of spear this was. They were clearly giant bows and arrows!

What kind of monster would be able to use such a long arrow? It can be launched so far and maintain such a strong force. When he thought of this, Xiao Feng's expression suddenly changed. It seemed that he really underestimated these orcs.

, there should be another new type of Orc on the scene!

Kyle and Bloom were shocked when they saw what happened to Xiao Feng's shooting position. Xiao Feng was their backbone and they must not allow any accidents to happen. However, when they saw Xiao Feng stand up from the ground,

When I quickly arrived at the top of the city, I breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the mage was fine.

At this time, Xiao Feng was hiding behind the female wall, holding a telescope and looking at the battlefield in the distance carefully. At this time, the scattered orcs had been reorganized.

About eight or nine hundred meters away from the city wall, the orcs began to regroup. Several catapults were burned before, but now the orcs have pushed up more than a dozen more. Although they all look like crudely made new catapults,

But as long as it can be launched, it doesn't matter.

At the same time, the orcs also dug a trench there, and many troops who were preparing to set off were hiding in the trench. It seemed that these orcs also discovered that Xiao Feng could summon "lightning" strikes, so they racked their brains and came up with a solution.

The way to deal with it was to dig trenches. Xiao Feng felt that he had really underestimated these orcs. Indeed, digging trenches was the most effective way to deal with machine guns.

And those orcs are still frantically organizing their hands to dig trenches. The trenches in front of them are constantly extending forward. It seems that they have also figured out the most effective way to get close to the city wall without exposing their bodies, and that is trench warfare.

.

The previous slaves had all died and escaped, so this time the trenches were dug, and the orcs went into battle in person. The tauren and pig-headed men were all very strong. As the saying goes, their physical strength was worth it, so they dug the trenches.

The speed is very fast.

The orcs' trenches were approaching the city wall at almost a speed that could be seen with the naked eye. Seeing the orcs' unexpected change of tactics, the faces of everyone on the city wall suddenly became ugly.

Hiding in the trenches undoubtedly reduces the area to deal with the enemy, which allows the orc soldiers to get the best protection. It also greatly reduces the defensive firepower on the city wall and cannot effectively kill the orcs.

But Xiao Feng didn't care about this. He only cared about who had shot those giant arrows before. This was the first time that the orcs had posed such a big threat to him, so he was very concerned about who the opponent was.

Soon, he saw the clues near the trench. He saw giant python men with a height of more than two and a half meters and waists as thick as buckets climbing up from the trench, and then set up a branch near the trench.

A large tree branch, then scraped a rubber band made of unknown material on the tree branch. Finally, he put the stones into the net pocket behind the rubber band, and then used a hook to pull the rubber band. This weapon was like a weapon.

The enlarged slingshot, and looking at the stretched length of the rubber band, you can feel the amazing strength of those pythons.

The retractor was released, and then the rubber band suddenly popped forward, and the stones in the net bag flew toward the city wall. However, because of the distance, it was not convenient to aim. These stones did not cause much damage to the human soldiers at the head of the city, but they did.

The iron city wall was still being smashed, making a loud banging sound.

Perhaps they also saw the poor results of the first round of test firing. These python men only fired one round and stopped. Soon, hundreds of python men about three meters high climbed out of the trench. This time

Each of them held a two-meter long bow in their hands, and someone in the ditch kept handing them huge javelin-like arrows.

These python men took the giant arrows, skillfully opened their bows and nocked arrows, and aimed in the direction of the city wall. Because of their special body structure, these python men have flexibility that is difficult for humans to match, so even though their waists are thicker than buckets,

When they draw the bow, their bodies can bend to an exaggerated degree, so each of them can draw the full bow. Longbows with a length of more than two meters, rows of longbows drawn to the full bow, are very scary.

Just looking at their momentum makes people feel numb.

'Boom, boom...boo, boom...'

When these python men let go of their bowstrings, even though they were far away, Xiao Feng could still hear the boom-boom sound of the bowstring rebounding and the sizzle of the arrows flying through the air.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack, concealment, concealment..."

In addition to Xiao Feng, Kyle and Bloom, of course, also saw the huge black arrows flying in the sky, and quickly shouted loudly to the soldiers on the wall to take cover.

After Xiao Feng built the steel city wall, he asked Charles Mann and Kyle to start the later reconstruction work at the same time. They built a lot of towers on the city wall, which played a role as hiding holes for soldiers to avoid bows and arrows.

As soon as the human soldiers hid in the Tibetan Soldier Cave, giant arrows like javelins pierced the city wall from the air. Charisman also laid wooden planks on the top of the city wall, and these javelins actually pierced directly.

It penetrated the wooden board and nailed it hard into the iron sheet steel plate below, and even many arrowheads poked big holes in the top of the container.

And those python men did not stop, but started firing round after round without interruption. Their shooting was very rhythmic. Maybe because they were not dealing with intensive charges, they did not require a rate of fire, but they still continued.

It can guarantee a shooting speed of six rounds per minute.

Xiao Feng has not taken action. He is carefully observing these python people. He needs to understand their habits before taking action. After all, this is the half-orc that he has encountered so far that poses the greatest threat to him and is also the most dangerous.

In his world, the farthest range of the famous British longbowmen in the Middle Ages was only 400 yards, or about 365 meters. In the era of cold weapons, this was the ultimate strike range that humans could achieve.

Moreover, the most skilled longbowmen who have been trained for a long time are only able to shoot six rounds per minute. After six rounds, the longbowmen are basically exhausted and can no longer fight. Moreover, long-term training will also cause damage to their bodies.

Caused huge damage, many people did not live past the age of forty. Years of longbow shooting training deformed their spines, and they would often be scrapped after a few years in the army. Therefore, longbowmen were a very expensive unit in the Middle Ages.

.

But these giant python long archers in front of him were completely beyond his cognitive scope, and it was really eye-opening for him.

Because of their physical advantages, their longest throw distance can actually reach eight to nine hundred meters, and the long arrows they fire are also very powerful. Moreover, although these guys shoot at a frequency of six rounds per minute, Xiao Feng can see that

This is far from their limit, if they want, they can even double the rate of fire.

The most terrifying thing is their endurance. You must know that human longbows are basically exhausted after shooting six rounds, but these guys actually shot for three minutes easily and maintained a shooting speed of six rounds per minute. This is

They were the best long-range strike troops he had ever seen in the cold weapon era, and the continuous shooting did not seem to cause any harm to their bodies.

Finally, after three minutes of shooting, these python men stopped shooting, and almost everywhere on the city wall was filled with javelin-like heavy arrows. Two trebuchets were even destroyed by these giant arrows.

Just as the python men were shooting arrows beyond the city wall frantically and suppressing fire, the tauren and pig-headed men were also digging trenches desperately. In just a few minutes, they had dug the trenches to 300 meters away from the city wall.
