Heroes of Silver Moon

Chapter 323: : Old King's Means (32)

Those soldiers who placed the baffles did not have shield protection, and they were not paying attention to the top of their heads when they were installing the baffles.

Therefore, this round of arrow rain of the Hawke family directly caused them to lose nearly half of their manpower.

"Quick, quick, hurry up, the next round of arrow rain is coming soon," the retainers of the light infantry commanded by Marquis Hood hurriedly shouted at the soldiers who placed the shields after the round of arrow rain.

The soldiers with the baffles were not protected by shields. If the Hawke family had another round of arrow rain, more than half of them would definitely die!

Hearing the retainer's roar, the frightened and terrified soldiers quickly regained their senses and continued to install the baffles.

They have no shields and cannot move their positions. They are basically living targets for the Hawke family now.

Only by installing the baffle as soon as possible can they get out of this dangerous situation!

With the threat of death, these soldiers moved very quickly, nailing the more than one hundred baffles to the ground with three strikes.

And at this time, the third wave of arrow rain of the Hawke family also arrived as scheduled!

"Hurry up, hide quickly", looking up at the arrows that were shooting rapidly above their heads, some soldiers with quick reactions immediately hid behind the barrier in a panic.

As for those who react slowly, they can only die on the spot with several arrows in their bodies.

The Hawke family's third round of arrow rain harvested more than a hundred soldiers from the Hood family.

These live targets without shields all hid behind the baffle, so the Hawke family had no choice but to pour the fourth round of arrow rain on the soldiers who charged with shields.

Because these soldiers were holding shields, the fourth round of the Hawke family's arrow rain yielded very little, only shooting down more than thirty people.

At the same time, the archers of the Hood family finally rushed behind the baffle, and after the archers arrived, the soldiers who placed the baffle immediately withdrew to the main formation of the Hood family.

Their mission has been completed, and the team has suffered heavy casualties. These terrified soldiers are no longer suitable for continuing to fight.

The archers of the Hood family hid behind the baffle, bent their bows and set their arrows. Immediately, a larger round of arrow rain poured down on the heads of the Hawke family in an instant.

"Ah!", the archers of the Hawke family hid behind the carriage, but many unlucky ones were still shot.

Before they could panic, the archers of the Hawke family directly shot another round of arrows at the charging soldiers of the Hood family.

Thirty or forty soldiers fell down again, but after five rounds of arrow rain, these soldiers with shields were about to rush to the front of the Hawke family.

As a result, the Hawke family's heavy infantry and spearmen began to advance slowly, while the archers who were originally hiding behind the carriage retreated quickly.

In the slowly advancing Hedgehog Formation, dozens of soldiers opened the gap sideways, allowing the retreating archers to return to the rear smoothly.

By the time the Hood family, the light infantry with shields, rushed to the front of the Hawke family, the Hawke family had successfully completed the formation rotation.

Looking at the carriages lined up in front of them, these Hood family fighters squeezed through the gap without hesitation.

Then, what they saw was the shield wall formed by the large shields, and the sharp spears protruding from the gaps in the shield wall.

There was a distance of five meters between the shield wall and the carriage, and this distance of five meters was also the death line for the soldiers of the Hood family.

After a brief moment of silence and hesitation, the soldiers of the Hood family, holding shields, rushed up without hesitation.

In front are shield walls and spears, behind are carriages and soldiers rushing forward, and the soldiers rushing to the front have no room to retreat.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!", amidst screams, the soldiers of the Hood family held their shields, avoided the spears that kept stabbing them, and directly hit the shield wall of the Hawke family.

The heavy infantry at the forefront of the Hawke family gritted their teeth and firmly resisted the large shield in their hands.

The spearman behind the heavy infantry, while stabbing the spear in his hand, also pressed his body firmly against the back of these heavy infantry.

There were at least 1,200 soldiers from the Hood family rushing forward.

Even if the carriage divided these soldiers into two parts, it would be difficult for the two hundred heavy infantry of the Hawke family to resist the collision of these soldiers.

Therefore, in order to maintain the stability of the formation, these spearmen must resist them behind the heavy infantry.

Seen from the sky, the two warring parties are all tightly packed together. The battlefield at this moment seems to have evolved into a competition of strength.

And the fact is the same, as long as the heavy infantry in front of the Hawke family holding a large shield can block the soldiers of the Hood family.

The soldiers of the Hood family could only be assassinated by the spears behind the shield wall of the Hawke family.

On the contrary, as long as the soldiers of the Hood family can break through the shield wall of the Hawke family, they will be able to win the battle directly by virtue of far surpassing the Hawke family~www.readwn.com~ However, In this competition of strength, the soldiers of the Hood family have actually lost their superiority in numbers.

There were a total of 2,000 soldiers in the first wave of their charge.

But those soldiers who placed the baffles suffered heavy losses first, and then returned to the main formation to rest, which reduced them by more than 600 people at once.

Including the losses from several rounds of arrow rain, when they arrived in front of the Hawke family, there were only 1,200 people left.

And with the stabbing of the spearmen of the Hawke family, their number is still declining!

On the other hand, on the side of the Hawke family, since the start of the war, the hedgehog formation composed of 200 heavy infantry and 1,200 militia spearmen has suffered almost no losses.

Therefore, judging from the number of people in this local battlefield alone, the Hood family does not have an advantage now.

Soldiers from the two families pushed each other in front of the Hawke family, and fell into a stalemate for a while.

But soon, new changes took place in the battle situation.

"Archers, aim and shoot freely." More than 60 meters away from the shield wall, the archers retreated from the Hawke family also completed their formation rest.

Following the orders of the retainers, the more than 500 archers of the Hawke family began to reap their lives to their heart's content.

Facing the arrows shot by the Hawke family's archers, the Hood family fighters huddled together could not dodge at all, and could only be shot to death continuously.

Of course, the Hawke family has archers, and the Hood family also has archers, and there are more of them than the Hawke family.

"Throwing from a long distance, be careful, don't shoot our own people." The retainer who commanded the archers of the Hood family also ordered the archers of the Hood family to launch a counterattack after seeing this situation.
