Chapter 434 Strange Troops
In the center of the battlefield, the formation formed by bodyguards is called "Tortoise Armor Formation". As the name suggests, the bodyguards in the formation hold large shields next to each other. Shields are stacked one on top of the other to form an airtight shield wall, shaped like a turtle shrinking its shell. ,unbreakable.

The mobility of the tortoise shell array is poor, but it is the optimal formation to defend against arrow attacks. Unless the shield is shot through, it is almost impossible to cause casualties, and the large shields of these bodyguards are extremely sophisticated, which can withstand the arrow attack. More than enough.

The attacker also seemed to realize that there was nothing to do with this tortoise shell array, so he quickly stopped shooting and didn't waste any more arrows.

Now, apart from some corpses that were still trembling, there was no movement on the battlefield.

In the tortoise shell formation, the second-in-command had a serious expression on his face.

Robbery is not terrible. Before he joined Abao's caravan, he was the head of another bodyguard. In the past [-] years, he has encountered no less than a hundred robberies, either fighting mountain bandits or fighting horse bandits. , and even encountered the private soldiers of the warlords, who have long had rich combat experience.

But today's dart robbers are very weird.
In an attack of this level in Dogrand, the identity of the attacker was more terrifying than the attack itself. He really couldn't guess who the other party was.

From the perspective of military literacy, the opponent is definitely an elite regular army.

But the regular army came out to rob the caravan?Now is not the time of war, how can there be such absurd things!
Not to mention that these people robbed the Abao caravan!

Abao is the "Three-clawed Golden Dragon" of the Far Eastern Dynasty. The darts who dared to rob Abao's caravan were directly confronting the court and provoking the real dragon emperor. How dare the regular army of the kingdom do such a thing?

Even if you dare, it doesn't make sense!Is there any reason to do this?The two countries are now in a period of friendship, why do such things that destroy the relationship?
Spending time here is not an option, the second in command decided to take a risky move, and he ordered the bodyguard next to him: "The Onmyoji has opened your eyes to you, and you can see what the other party is up to."

Eye opening refers to some people who are born with superior eyesight. After being washed by an onmyoji, they have obtained vision beyond ordinary people. The effect is similar to taking the "Eagle Eye Potion" of the Hetch family.

This bodyguard has good eyesight since he was a child, and his eyes can see farther and clearer than ordinary people. After opening his eyes, he even gained the ability of night vision. He can see things clearly in the dark night like a cat.

The bodyguard got the order, lowered his arms slightly, moved the shield down, exposed a small slit, and looked out quietly.

At this moment something terrible happened.

What the bodyguard exposed was really just a "small slit", which was only as wide as a little finger, but the moment he looked out through the slit, arrows like flying lightning tore through the air and poured into it from his right eye without any deviation. , piercing through the back of the head, the accuracy of the arrow was so high that it didn't even scratch the upper and lower edges of the gap in the shield wall.

"Hoo--" It was the arrows that arrived first, and the sound of piercing the air came.

Arrow headshot, blood spattered.

The moment the bodyguard fell down, the shield in his hand fell off, a hole appeared in the shield wall, and a torrential rain of arrows began to rain down.

"Shhhhhhhhhh-"

The arrows were as bright as lightning, setting off curtains of blood one after another. Amid the gushing sound of blood foam, the bodyguards behind the shield wall fell down one after another, and none of them wailed, all of them were killed on the spot after hitting vital points!
More and more people fell down, more and more holes were opened, and the tortoise shell formation was almost loose.

"Body protection!" The second in command yelled out the order, and the internal energy in the dantian began to operate, and the white energy gushed out from the strange acupoints, forming a solid armor-like protective layer on the surface.

With the help of internal body protection, the bodyguards held the arrows hard, raised their shields to block the gap, and rebuilt a complete tortoise shell formation, making the shield wall airtight, which prevented the attackers from continuing to harvest.

After the danger was saved, the second in command did not feel relaxed at all, and even sweated on his forehead. He cursed secretly: "This guy is so good at archery, he is definitely not a bandit. I have never seen such a thing in my escort for more than 20 years." Kind of archery! This tortoise shell array was almost broken by him alone!"

The previous traveler was lucky enough to squeeze into the shield wall early. He had just joined Abao's caravan and had little experience. He had never seen such a terrifying attacker. What should I do now? I can’t move, but I can’t spend it here all the time.”

"Don't be afraid, our shields are all high-quality heavy shields made by blacksmiths. As long as there are no leaks, his arrows can't do anything to us." Next to the main carriage, there is a cloud-piercing arrow, use it to attract the attention of defenders in neighboring cities!"

Now I don't know the details of the attackers, and I don't know how many of them there are in total. It would be dangerous to go out to fight rashly, so I can only use the tortoise shell to support them first.

If the cloud-piercing arrows could be used to lure the defenders of the neighboring cities, no matter what the identity of these attackers, they wouldn't have the guts to fight openly with the city defenses!
Thinking of this, the second in command gained confidence and growled, "Listen to my orders! One, two moves!"

"Ding ding ding——" while the tortoise shell formation was moving slowly, the attackers in the shadows began to shoot arrows again, trying to prevent them from escaping.

But this group of bodyguards had a good military literacy, and they used the tortoise shell formation to the extreme. There was no flaw in the whole movement process, only the sound of arrows being bounced off by the shield, really like an invulnerable iron turtle.

The shield wall moved, and the arrow rain stopped again.

A bodyguard said excitedly: "This group of picky talents, now they know how good we are!"

Seeing that the opponent was unable to break through the formation, the second in command secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a deep voice, "Keep moving, speed up."

Everyone responded without letting down their vigilance, and continued to move towards the main carriage, preparing to get the Cloud Piercing Arrow.

Just as the bodyguards raised their shields and moved away, the keen-sensed traveler suddenly frowned: "Wait a minute! What's the noise?!"

Everyone stopped and listened.

"Boom—boom—boom—" The sound of the energy torrent was suppressed and dull, and it became more and more turbulent like the raging waves in the sea, and it was louder and louder than everyone's ears.

This kind of sound is very strange to the bodyguards, and the traveler who is very familiar with all kinds of sounds can't distinguish it, so he said confusedly: "I've never heard this sound before, what is it?"

"Give me the bronze mirror in your arms!" the second-in-command shouted to the second-in-command.

The tripman hurriedly handed it over.

The second in command took over the bronze mirror, moved the shield down, and opened a gap, but did not probe to look in, but put the bronze mirror on the side, observing the movement outside through the reflection of the mirror.

The death-like sharpshooter didn't know whether he didn't notice the seam, or he went to do something else and didn't shoot at the bronze mirror.

The second in command hadn't opened his eyes before, so he couldn't do night vision, but after staying in the dark for so long, his eyes more or less got used to it, he squinted his eyes for a moment, and suddenly his expression froze: "Damn, what is that? "
