chapter 31
Of course, this is just the beginning. In the following time, with the hill as the center, Zhou Mingyue dug more than ten trenches far away from the river.
The hill is surrounded by water on three sides. The river is not too deep in this location, but the river surface is very wide. It is very difficult for the barbarians to siege the river surface without long-range weapons.
What's more, Zhou Mingyue asked the soldiers to dig deeper at the bottom of the river near the foot of the mountain.
On the hill and land, after digging so many trenches, the impact of Manniu will undoubtedly be weakened to the extreme!
Of course, his plan is not just that.
The three trenches in the front were filled with sharpened wooden stakes, heavy snatchers, heavy infantry, and even ordinary snatchers, infantry, and archers were arranged in the trenches in the back, and all the longbow soldiers, monks and priests were placed on the hill.
The cavalry and heavy cavalry were released by Zhou Mingyue to harass the speed of the barbarian army, and to gain time for the arrangements here.
Of course, those cavalry and heavy cavalry who went to harass the barbarian army would lose more or less, but it was worth it.
When the barbarian army arrived, Zhou Mingyue's planned defense line had been laid out.
Lying behind the hill, Zhou Mingyue leaned out and looked at the approaching barbarian army, feeling a little sad.
If you had hundreds of barrels of gasoline, you would have to pour it into the trench and when the barbarians rushed over, they would throw the matches inside, and the barbarians would probably suffer a great loss.
Unfortunately, I didn’t even have vegetable oil on my hands, let alone gasoline.
There is probably no gasoline in this world.
The barbarians are barbarians. Even though they saw that the human army had already arranged a defense line, they were still not afraid at all. As soon as more than 700 barbarian warriors arrived here, the barbarian chief sitting on the back of the barbarian bull roared, and the barbarian warriors directly activated the brainless pig burst tactic!
There was no need for Zhou Mingyue to give the order, and the longbow soldiers who were squatting on the hill immediately pulled the bow and drew arrows, shooting dozens of heavy arrows out.
Swish swish swish swish... A series of arrows piercing through the body sounded on the battlefield, and then another series of barbarian screams sounded, and even more than twenty barbarian warriors fell on the charge line.
If it were Hirano's fight, it would be impossible for Zhou Mingyue's longbow soldiers to achieve such results at the beginning.
Only by surrounding water on three sides can barbarian warriors only charge on one side to achieve such results.
This made Zhou Mingyue breathe a sigh of relief.
Although the chief of this A3 tribe is powerful, the ordinary barbarian warriors under him are still not out of the scope of ordinary things. Otherwise, he should consider letting the griffin cavalry lead him to escape immediately.
After the longbowmen shot three waves in a row and fell down more than 70 people, the barbarian warriors were still thirty meters away from the first trench, and this distance was exactly the effective range of the archers!
Therefore, a series of vibrations of bowstrings were heard, and dense rain of arrows rose into the air. After passing a perfect arc in the air, they fell into the group of barbarians charging.
Of course, the archers' range is 100 meters and the use of light arrows is really a little different from the heavy arrows of the long bowers.
The barbarian warriors who were shot in the arrow didn't say anything, but just rushed forward. Their intention was to not see that you were screaming happily now, and wait for me to tear you into pieces!
As for the fallen barbarian warriors, there was no one.
It was not until they approached the first trench that another wave of arrows shot by the longbowmen fell down sparsely, shooting more than a dozen unlucky barbarian warriors to the ground.
I'm going, what's the situation? I'm going to suck!
(;*?Д`)ノ!ε(┬┬﹏┬┬┬)3!
The expressions of the barbarian warriors when they rushed to the trench were probably the above.
They saw that the width of the trench was impossible for them to jump over at all, and they also saw densely sharpened wooden stakes at the bottom of the trench!
Even a fool knows that jumping in is not a big deal! It will be a deathblazing!
But the barbarian warrior who was rushing in front could not stop himself because he stopped. The brothers behind him kept knocking the barbarian warrior in front into the trench, and he followed him into the trench, and then he heard the dull sound of wooden stakes piercing through his body.
In a blink of an eye, more than fifty barbarian warriors were squeezed into the first trench. Fortunately, the barbarian warriors behind heard the roar in front and stopped charging in time, otherwise, more would fall into it.
Although not all the barbarian warriors who fell into it were killed by wooden stakes, only more than ten people survived, and they were seriously injured and could move. It was impossible to charge like before and jump around.
what to do?
The barbarian warriors were crowded in front of the trench and were stunned.
They were stunned. The longbowmen squatting on the hills and trenches were not stunned. They kept drawing bows and drawing arrows at their own established rhythm, and poured waves of arrow rain on the heads of barbarian warriors.
The barbarian chief who was originally calm and composed and rode on the back of the barbarian bull, watching his army charge, hoping that the humans would be killed and the entire army would be destroyed, and the barbarian chief was also stunned.
Due to the poor relationship between civilization and the age of civilization, the barbarians had never seen this trick!
Well, even in the Kingdom of Flor, there are probably not many people who want to dig trenches to resist the attack of the barbarians.
After all, even in the Kingdom of Flor, the way they fought was that the infantry on both sides was arranged, the knights charged, the soldiers were always on the front line, and the farmers were used as cannon fodder. There were not even many archers, so what were the trench tactics to think of?
What's the use of the trench blocking the enemy? It also blocks the way for the knights here to charge!
However, the barbarian chief is not just a muscle or a stick, but also a little bit of brain.
He then let someone blow the horn, and let the barbarian soldiers crowded in front of the trench retreat and make way. Then he drove the barbarian bull and launched a charge!
When the three barbarian bulls began to accelerate and charge forward, their momentum was extremely amazing.
The ground was shaken, causing the barbarian warriors who were closer to the distance to fall involuntarily.
At the same time, the Manniu made an extremely loud Hum cry, like more than ten war drums ringing at the same time!
It can be said that these three mana bulls are the killer weapons of the A3 tribe.
In the past, when fighting with enemy tribes, as long as three barbarian bulls launched a charge, even the extremely fierce barbarian warriors would be frightened and fled in a hurry, laying the victory in one fell swoop.
But this time, when the three barbarian bulls charged, the other party was not afraid at all, and no deserter appeared.
