Chapter four hundred and two, the position is reversed
The two groups of men and horses below directly fought together. If they were bringing archers this time, it would definitely be inconvenient to support them. After all, the risk of accidental injury was too high.
However, crossbowmen are different. The accuracy of the hand crossbow is much easier to control. At the same time, a very important point is that the crossbow arrows fly out extremely fast, which further reduces the possibility of the target avoiding the attack.
After a round of volley, the lives of a wave of hyena men were directly harvested, but their position was also exposed at the same time.
Zhou Yi's move was a huge risk, because at this moment, he and the fifty crossbowmen under his command were only protected by a mere thirty sword and shield soldiers! But there were two to three hundred below.
Hyena man, who can not panic in this scene?
After all, the hyenas had a numerical advantage. Zhou Yi was worried about the situation on Li Ke's side. If he first led people to send the population of the third barbarian tribe to join the people who came to meet them, and then came to support Li Ke,
So looking at the situation, it's definitely too late.
Therefore, as a last resort, the troops could only be divided into two groups, and with this small force, they rushed over in a hurry.
At this time, their only reliance is probably the highland that Jie Zichuan temporarily found for them. In other words, it is the terrain advantage.
Originally, for long-range troops, the essence of this highland advantage was that I could hit them, but they couldn't hit me.
But to be honest, this piece of highland temporarily found based on Jie Zichuan's memory was obviously not up to standard and did not bring them much sense of security. The main reason was that it was not high enough.
And the large group below were orcs. Zhou Yi felt that if the group of hyena men rushed over and jumped hard, they might jump up in one breath.
If he hadn't seen that Li Ke was in trouble and couldn't take action, he would really have to think about it again...
In any case, their exposure was a foregone conclusion. The Hyena Queen cruelly cut them to the bone. Looking at Zhou Yi and others standing on the high ground, the old and new hatreds were added together. The hatred in the Hyena Queen's heart undoubtedly broke out completely at this moment!
"Kill them all! Kill all those damn humans!!" Howls filled with hatred roared out. The Hyena Queen, who was still clinging to Li Ke and wanted to kill him, was completely helpless at this moment.
If he loses his interest in fighting with it, he will directly lead his hyenas to kill Zhou Yi and others!
"Leave me alone!" However, at this moment, the positions were reversed. Before, it was Li Ke who wanted to leave, but the Hyena Queen refused to let him go. Now, it is the Hyena Queen who wanted to leave, but Li Ke refused to let him go.
The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and these words are really not just said casually.
The two swords slashed directly towards the back of the Hyena Queen's neck, forcing the other party to turn around and deal with it. While forcibly retaining the Hyena Queen, Li Ke also shouted loudly at the werewolf warriors under his command,
"Stop all these hyena men!"
Following Li Ke's roar, the werewolf warriors rushed forward one after another, and the orcs from both sides once again fought together.
However, the hyenas have a numerical advantage after all, and it is impossible to stop them all. A group of hyenas who were not stopped rushed forward fast and fiercely. In just a few breaths, they were almost rushing to Zhou Yi and others.
Eyelids are low.
Then he looked at the movements of the hyena men. Sure enough, they planned to use the momentum of the sprint to jump up in one breath. Zhou Yi, who realized this, felt his heart tighten, and then quickly commanded his soldiers to face the enemy, "Here
I'll go up to the shield wall and block them all!"
On the high ground, the thirty sword and shield soldiers still cooperated in a tacit understanding. In addition, all of them were experienced battlefield veterans. At this moment, they very smartly chose to take advantage of the terrain and space, and then relied on the bronze shields in their hands to quickly form a formation.
He built a shield wall and blocked the hyena men who were rushing towards him.
At the same time, taking advantage of the time they had to block the first wave of hyena attacks, the crossbowmen who were guarding the back also stepped on the crossbow stirrups and re-strung their hand crossbows.
According to the penetrating power of the hand crossbow, as long as it can hit the vital point, even a hyena man with rough skin and thick flesh can be killed with one blow.
However, these hyenas are obviously not stupid. After being successfully attacked by the crossbowmen, they also realized the threat and quickly protected their fatal wounds. When the other party was willing to protect themselves, the crossbowmen again
It is already extremely difficult to succeed.
The current situation made Zhou Yi frown more and more. After the wave of attacks just now, the entire situation was slightly reversed, but Li Ke and the others had lost the opportunity before.
This degree of reversal was not enough for them to take back the initiative in one fell swoop. It could only be said to be a slight equalization. This battle was destined to be very uncomfortable.
At the critical moment, even Jie Zichuan, who was originally responsible for leading the way, now went to fight with a shield in one hand and a sword in the other. Zhou Yi was surprised by his impressive skills.
But in the current situation, no matter how hard Jie Zichuan can fight alone, can he still defeat the group on the opposite side? Not to mention that the group is still orcs...
Thoughts were racing in his mind. Zhou Yi glanced at the werewolf warriors in the distance. In his haste, he quickly shouted, "General Li Ke, call your werewolf warriors to gather together! Form a shield array!"
The existence of Zhou Yi and others has invisibly created a wave of hatred for Li, and even the blame falling from the sky has a tendency to be transferred to Zhou Yi.
This made Li Ke feel that the pressure on himself was relieved a lot during the battle. After hearing Zhou Yi's words, he quickly directed his werewolf warriors to rush to the high ground.
Among the many orcs, the wolf tribe is relatively a disciplined race. When Li Yuanjie was still the chief, the werewolf tribe was his "own son", so Li Yuanjie naturally wanted to train them into an elite force.
thoughts.
Although Li Yuanjie's training plan ended in failure, after all, he had practiced a little bit, and they were able to form some simple formations.
After a burst of fighting, the sparse and crude shield array of the werewolf warriors had taken shape.
This formation, if placed in their human army, would be a typical negative teaching material. The so-called shield formation does not mean that you stand with everyone holding a bronze shield.
The essence is that every shield-bearing soldier must always maintain tacit cooperation with his comrades on the left and right sides when facing an enemy attack. They can cover and support each other without destroying the defense of the entire large formation.
This method of fighting is called a shield formation!
As for the werewolf warrior, it can only be said that he imitated the appearance, but failed to learn the essence.
