Chapter 5 Ella is doing math problems (13)
Looking at the range of the bow and arrows depicted by the soldiers, the lords asked the soldiers to come forward with skepticism. A group of soldiers hid behind the shield and walked forward carefully. When they entered the normal distance of the bow and arrow, they did not suffer any resistance. They continued to advance, and when they were almost two-thirds of the range, several arrows shot over. But although these arrows touched them, they had no strength and fell softly to the ground.
So the lords were convinced that the effective range of the enemy's bow and arrow was only two-thirds of that of ordinary bow and arrow.
"Although the firing speed is fast, it is not very powerful, so there is no need to be afraid at all! The whole army, take the shield and line up to move forward!"
So, the attack on this camp began.
The Almani Federation soldiers holding the shield rushed forward with a dense rain of arrows. Although the enemy archers had a fast firing rate, their killing effect was not much higher than that of ordinary archers because of their short range. Knowing this, they were no longer afraid. With the absolute advantage of the number of people, they rushed to that camp with confidence and engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat with the defenders.
Graheide commanded the battle in the camp with a sweat. This camp was temporarily built and not strong, and its defense effect was not even as good as the special car formation made by Duke Otto. Under the fierce attack of the enemy, it could not last long.
He still held a trump card in his hand. As the battle situation worsened, he wanted to play this trump card in advance several times, but he gritted his teeth and endured it again and again.
The trump card must be used in the decisive place.
His eyes looked at the enemy lords from time to time. As the battle situation advanced, they were getting closer and closer to the city.
Finally, most of the lords entered the range of one arrow!
Graheide threw the knife in his hand at an enemy. In a flash, he took out the bow on his back and hit the arrow. He spat a mouthful of blood on the ground and issued a vicious order: "The ban is lifted, let these Almani idiots see what is the God-Choose Archer!"
For a long time, nearly a quarter of the archers under Grahaide did not shoot a single arrow. Grahaide's infantry struggled to resist the enemy's attack, while the archers endured the pressure of the enemy approaching and used their trained eyes to the lords looking for the enemy.
The positions of the more than ten lords had long been determined by the archers. After Grahyide's order, the murderous intent that the archers endured in their hearts finally had a mouthful of venting!
Graheide aimed at the lord walking in the front and shot out an arrow. The arrow drove hundreds of arrows and flew towards the enemy lords in an overwhelming way!
Graheide's right hand held four arrows at the same time, one arrow resting on the string, and the other three arrows raised upwards under the grasp of his hand. After the first arrow was shot, he only pressed his fingers, and the second arrow in his palm immediately hit the string.
The first arrow was still flying in the air, and Graheide had already shot the second arrow. The archers around Graheide were doing the same movements as Graheide. Their movements were slightly inferior to Graheide, but compared to ordinary archers, their speed was still extremely fast.
This is the secret of their rate of fire! The two-thirds range that the enemy thinks is just a deliberate gesture to lure their lords to get closer.
In Graheide's army, only the most elite soldiers use bows and arrows. If the enemy's weapons are collected in the sheath, the archers he trained can complete a series of actions of grabbing the bow and aiming in front of the enemy's three positions, and shoot the enemy before the enemy's weapons hit them!
The two lords that Graheide aimed at were in the middle lane, and the other was on the left lane far apart. But these four arrows hit the left and right eye of the two lords exactly. The archers beside him were not so accurate, but after several rounds of shooting from nearly a hundred archers, four lords were unfortunately injured, and the guards around the lord were killed or injured.
This wave of attacks injured one-half of the enemy's lords.
The remaining six lords were frightened - dozens of arrows were just passing by each of them. The guards beside them hurriedly protected them with shields and took them back.
Graheide watched them retreat coldly. The lords who were not caught in the arrow retreated to a half-way point, and finally breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.
Graheide asked the archers to put down their bows.
Then, I picked up another bow!
"Let these rustic buns see what an English longbow is!"
The English longbow is a powerful bow brought by Grahead from England. It has a fast firing rate and a long range. In addition to spending more time cultivating shooters, it has an advantage over ordinary bows.
A half-way archery, which is for ordinary bows, not for English longbows!
The lords never dreamed that they would be hit by a bow and arrow at this distance and did not make any preparations at all. Although the power of the bow and arrow was greatly weakened at this distance, three more lords fell to the ground after this wave of bow and arrow.
Whenever these lords and soldiers charged together, Graheide could not tell them out of the soldiers' eyes. But they were hiding behind the few people.
It would be fine if they hid behind, but there were many lords in charge. But they were lured by Graheide and ran into the range of the longbow without knowing it.
As a result, the twelve lords were killed and seven injured, and only three were still alive.
The strange range of the bow and arrow made the remaining three lords run to the bottom of the high ground in panic.
But Graheide set up a bow again.
The lords had already run two arrows, and even the longbow of England had no lethality at this distance.
But Graheide shot an arrow again.
The arrow was like eyes growing, and inserted it into the gap in the lord's armor and gently stabbed him.
And this is enough to scare the lord who was shot to the arrow half his life.
The lords' retreat severely hit the morale of the soldiers. They began to flee with the lord.
A pirate kingdom suddenly appeared under the high ground, which was the "hair salon king" Haral. He was always watching the dynamics of the battlefield. When he noticed that the soldiers from the Almani Federation had failed, he immediately brought the soldiers back.
Haral's troops began to cover up the soldiers who fled from the Almani Federation.
