total war rise of empire

Chapter 48 The Power of the Ballista (Part [-])
"Fuck me, stand up straight, straighten your waist, the jackal man on the other side won't take prisoners, if you don't want to die, show me some energy!

There is still hope of survival if you work hard, if you lose, even if you have not died at the hands of jackals and beasts, the governor will not spare you! "

A townsman of Longhan Town, who was originally a remnant of elite spearmen, gave a "manual pre-war education" to the Pylos prisoners beside him in high spirits, and suddenly became a member of the top [-] people from an ordinary person at the bottom. A team officer, even a team officer of a group of prisoners of war cannon fodder, is quite a rewarding job. At least, he can beat people and spit dirty openly!

Especially when he was spitting, those Pylos prisoners of war still looked fearful and flattering, which made this former elite spearman of Longhan Town named Li Si feel extremely sour!

This is the taste of power, tsk tsk, it feels more refreshing than Widow Liu in Gan Town!

The officer of the fourth team Li thought happily in his heart, and at the same time, a small sprout called ambition sprouted in his heart so unscientifically!
Li Si is very clear that these hundred Pylos prisoners of war cannon fodder are as well-behaved as dogs in front of his eyes. They are all temporary. A screw!

Even if in the next war, he is likely to become the boss of 100 people again, he can do his best, but when will he wait?
Li Si, who has enjoyed the majesty of the team officer for a while, has already begun to taste the taste of this kind of refreshment!

After all, prisoners of war cannon fodder are different from the militia and regular army in Longhan Town. Lei Zihao turned a blind eye to the abusive behavior of the officers and soldiers he sent to beat and kick the cannon fodder of prisoners of war. As long as it can guarantee that no one will die and no riots will be caused by the prisoners of war, it is enough!

Even Lei Zihao himself didn't treat the Pylos prisoner as a human being!
In Lei Zihao's heart, he was still planning how to find an excuse to kill a group of captives after the war was over, give that killing experience up to [-], and exchange it for the essence of blood that can strengthen him!

Li Si looked at the army of wolf men who were jogging and accelerating with a solemn expression, and said in his heart: "This time I must make a contribution! As long as I can make a contribution in this battle and show my face in front of the great and wise governor, I will have the opportunity to become A real officer, by then, I, Li Si, will be a serious and honest master in Longhan Town!
Just thinking about it makes me a little excited!

Li Si, who had fought against the Jackal man, shook the exquisite spear in his hand fiercely. This is a relic he kept after the collapse of the elite spearmen last time...

However, last time he was just an ordinary soldier, and no matter how hard he worked, he would only get rewards. This time he was a team officer of 100 people, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that Longhan Town was in a stage of lack of military strength, and after the war, it would be inevitable. Through the performance of this battle, some elites will be selected to form a standing army!

The governor of his own family doesn't look like a pacifist, and there are many opportunities to make contributions!
Under Li Si's focused gaze, when the dense swarm formation of gnolls rushed within 300 steps (150 meters), Wei soldiers with serious expressions and full body chain armor formed two rows of volleys, and suddenly buckled their crossbows. machine!

Whoosh whoosh~~~
A hundred arrows of the twelve-stone crossbow easily crossed a distance of more than 100 meters and pierced into the naked body of the wolf man!
In fact, after the flat shot flew more than 100 meters, the strength of the crossbow arrows has weakened a lot. At this time, even the exquisite sandwich leather armor can block these crossbow arrows, but the army of gnolls only has one muscle armor, and that layer Compared with the orc armor, the muscle armor is slightly inferior...

Blossoms of blood floated up in the crowd of gnolls charging, and the wailing version of the screams began to be mixed with the all wailing version of howling...

At such a long distance, even if a crossbow arrow shot from a powerful kicking crossbow pierces into the body, it will not be able to cause deeper penetrating wounds. Although the Gnoll warrior who was hit by the arrow is very painful, unless the unlucky one is inserted into a fragile body such as the face Vital, otherwise it will be very difficult to be fatal!

But...it really hurts! ! !
Therefore, gnolls shot by arrows seldom continue to charge. Smarter ones know that emergency stops cannot be performed in a crowded environment, and they grit their teeth to slow down. Brainless gnolls simply lie down on the ground Or be knocked to the ground, and then trampled into meat paste by the same brainless companions behind...

Well, although the crossbow arrows didn't kill the gnoll, the effects of trampling and shooting are actually the same...

In addition, in this group of gnolls, individuals with brains are like rare animals, and each of them has become the commander of Lei Zihao's head filled with excrement. Therefore, those gnolls who were shot are basically glorious. It became a puddle of meat sauce...

There were even some gnolls who were not sensitive enough. Because the formation was too scattered, the compatriots who were lying down under the crowd tripped over like dogs, and stepped into the ranks of being trampled into meat sauce...

Lei Zihao, who was standing on the temporary wooden frame, was pleasantly surprised to see the unorganized and unformed wolves charging team, in front of the same-cloaked obstacle behind the arrow, they huffed and tripped several intact wolves Human fighters unexpectedly greatly increased their own casualties!

Sure enough, the real battlefield is much more scientific than in the TV series. With so many people charging together, how could they dodge like in the TV series?
Unless a well-disciplined infantry phalanx is discharged!
The Wei soldier who shot the first round of crossbow arrows skillfully placed the crossbow on the ground, stepped on the bow head, pulled up the extremely strong bowstring with all his strength, and put it into the reset groove of the crossbow machine!

Then, put a crossbow bolt on the back into the shooting position of the crossbow, raise the hip, raise the arm, aim, and under the unified command of the team officer, buckle the crossbow!

The second round of crossbow arrows once again caused a small trampling accident on the charging formation of the gnolls...

Li Si stood behind, watching his own crossbow easily harvesting the corpse of the wolf man from a long distance. At this moment, the long-range weapon of the crossbow left a deep impression on him, and he was directly promoted to the battlefield The status of the number one weapon!
'When I climb up to a high position in the future, I will definitely equip my younger brother with such a crossbow machine. This thing is simply awesome, safe and reliable! '

Excited, Li Si once again made a vow in his heart that he didn't know if it could be fulfilled...

The 20 seconds passed quickly, and the team of wolf men had spread their big feet and rushed within a hundred steps!

Finally, it was time for the Qin Crossbowmen, who had watched the show for a long time, to make their debut on stage!
