Chapter 209 Heifu and the Little Mason
"Six hundred steps!"
"Five hundred steps!"
"Bear Hunting Crossbow, release!"
More than a dozen two-meter-long giant arrows galloped towards the ogre army in the distance. The maximum range of the bear hunting crossbow could reach a distance of a thousand steps, but at a distance of a thousand steps, not only the power was greatly reduced, but also the accuracy could not be guaranteed. The most effective range is still within 500 paces,
Not only is the shot accurate at this distance, but it is also powerful. Even if you hit the ogre with thick skin and armor head-on, you will immediately kneel down.
"puff!"
The giant arrows plunged into the ogre pile, and there was a sound of armor piercing into the flesh. Because the ogres formed a dense formation, and the accuracy of the bear hunting crossbow was relatively high, almost every giant arrow caused the ogres to attack. casualties,
The lucky ones were directly smashed to the head, the heart and other vital parts, and fell to the ground and died immediately without suffering too much pain. Under this condition, it is impossible to save it, but with the vitality of an ogre, it can survive for a long time, and the longer it lives, the more pain it will suffer.
The death of more than a dozen companions could not shake the march of the ogre army. On the contrary, more ogres were aroused by the smell of blood and screams.
The ogre is a semi-civilized race, and it still has the characteristics of some beasts. The problem of being jealous when it smells blood has not completely receded.
On the other side, in the formation of the Flying Bear Army, more than a dozen bear hunting crossbows were still being reloaded, and the surrounding soldiers were quite agile. They had obviously undergone long-term training, and the reloading steps were quite skilled. They wanted to catch up with the ogre army. Fires another round when approached,
On the front chariot, the strong crossbowman has already completed the first loading, and the crossbow is standing in front of the baffle, waiting for the order to fire.
"Hey, little mason, are you nervous?"
"No, no!"
On a chariot, Heifu, the commander of the chariot, was holding a heavy weapon and observing the four men on the chariot.
The commanders of these chariots are basically veterans like Hei Fu, who are armed with heavy weapons and ready to fight ogres at any time.
It is most suitable for them to be the captain of the car. The little stonemason Heifu calls is actually not small at all. He is also a strong man of 1.85 meters. He is from the same village as Heifu, because his father is a stonemason. Heifu also habitually called him the little mason.
The little mason saw that he was tall and tall, but he was actually a recruit, but he had the strength to complete the winding of the crossbow independently, so he became a strong crossbowman gloriously.
Anyway, crossbows don't require much training. After a month or two of rigorous training, you can become a qualified crossbowman. At this time, you are also placed on a chariot and become the first line of the Flying Bear Army. line of defense,
Apparently, the little stonemason who had never experienced fighting on the battlefield was a little nervous in the face of the menacing ogre at the moment. Even if he trained well, he couldn't help but feel a little weak now, but he still insisted on denying it. That's all.
"Aren't you nervous? Look at how your hands are shaking. The ogre hasn't come up yet! If it wasn't for marching in the wilderness these days, I would have thought you were going to work in some warbler house with your salary. One night."
"When the ogre rushes up, I will be the one to go up, so panic!"
At this time, most of the people in the army couldn't speak any reason, and they kept a few foul language and dirty jokes, but the black man's scolding actually made the little mason's hands stop shaking, as if he had calmed down a little.
"On weekdays, we eat Mr. Li Cha's food, drink Mr. Li Cha's food, and eat dry food every once in a while. We have big meat every week, and the rewards are never less. If we die in battle, our wife and children are also taken care of by Mr. Li Cha. If you risk your life, you have to stand up to me!"
Heifu has a flexible mind, and he has heard a lot of truths from the lecturer. Now he is learning and applying some of the truths he hears in his daily life to mobilize his four soldiers before the battle.
"But I haven't married a wife yet, let alone a child. If I die, the pension given by Mr. Li Cha will be cheaper for my brother."
After hearing Heifu's simple lecture, the rest of the people responded with a sense of face, only the little stonemason turned his head to stare at Heifu with a mournful face.
Facing the shameless little mason, Hei Fu stared back fiercely, and when he was about to swear a few more words, the loud military order sounded again, interrupting Hei Fu's swearing.
The little stonemason turned his head quickly, tightly held the crossbow in his hand and fixed it on the baffle, staring intently at the approaching ogre ahead,
Can be selected as the strong crossbowman, besides his strong physique, the little mason also has good eyesight. From a long distance, he can roughly see the face of the ogre in the front row.
Now staring at the ugly face of the ogre became more and more clear, the little stonemason was not so nervous, holding the crossbow steadily in both hands, all he could think of was giving the ogre that ugly face a blow. He came up, it was really ugly.
"Two hundred steps!"
"One hundred and fifty steps!"
"put!"
"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."
When the launch order was issued, hundreds of crossbow bolts shot out from dozens of chariots, making a low humming sound.
Because this time the target was a taller ogre warrior, but the kobolds who attacked at the same time were not hit.
On the contrary, dozens of ogre warriors were pierced by the crossbow and fell to the ground.
The power of these crossbows has surpassed the arrows fired by the sharpshooters under Li Cha's command.
If the rate of fire and accuracy are not considered, the power of these crossbows is somewhat stronger than the arrows shot by the elf archers.
Even if it is shot at the thickest chest of the ogre's armor, it can directly break through the armor and penetrate into the heart.
"Hurry up! Reload!"
The little stonemason who entered the state immediately put the vacant crossbow perpendicular to the ground, raised his foot to step on a slot, pressed the crossbow into the slot, and then pulled it hard with both hands, perfectly completing the rewinding, and then immediately Put the crossbow on the baffle,
"preparation!"
"put!"
"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."
This time the distance was even shorter, the ogres in the front row were no more than a few dozen steps away from the chariot formation, and the blood spattered by the arrows seemed to have almost spilled onto the chariot.
The little stonemason finally got his wish, and a crossbow directly hit the ugly front face of an ogre, which made him feel sick. Watching the arrow directly smash the ogre's face bones, piercing through the brain And when the scene with a stream of red and white objects appeared, the little mason actually felt a little refreshed in his heart.
"Reload!"
"Pikemen ready!"
"Heavy troops are ready!"
"go ahead!"
