C306 Counterattack

After the phalanx had been organized, the enemy attacks had become insignificant.

Not long after, Xiao Wen discovered that the dense shooting had reduced by a lot. When he saw this, he couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.

"That's true! It would be good if a person could shoot ten arrows a day! " Xiao Wen said.

After all, archery wasn't something that could be launched indefinitely with an arrow. This action of pulling the bow, in the absence of the lever to slide and other devices to assist, was a very forceful one. Under normal circumstances, it was already quite good for an adult male to shoot ten arrows a day.

If he had more than ten, he would probably have to pay the price of getting injured.

Thus, on the battlefield, the commander would only order the archers to attack at the right time.

"It seems like they aren't doing much either!" Anthony also laughed.

He said: "I once saw a group of Englishmen in Damascus, and the moment their archers stopped attacking, their knights would rush up to the enemy without giving them any time to react. But I don't think I heard any attacks from these Thieves. "

Xiao Wen rolled his eyes at Anthony, and said: "A normal thief would definitely not be able to understand the cooperation of a mounted gangster. To be able to perform this maneuver, he would be an elite amongst elites no matter where he went. "Although we have an army that can do this, if the bandits can do the same, it would be really scary!"

If bandits had this level of training, they could probably invade cities and take over the throne, waiting for orders. Would they even try to rob him on this crappy border?

Anthony did not refute Xiao Wen.

After all, he was the boss, and he couldn't afford to offend him.

After Xiao Wen and the others waited for a while, suddenly, a voice came out. It was the voice of a rough man. He said, "Are there any living people inside?"

Hearing this, Xiao Wen was speechless.

Brother, do you still not know if there are any living people inside? Then when you shot your arrows just now, it was just a random shot?

In a short while, Xiao Wen's evaluation of the quality of this group of thieves reached a new low.

However, just as Xiao Wen was about to organize his reply, a voice came out from inside the carriage.

Xiao Wen could hear very clearly that this was Guan Yu's voice.

His voice was filled with intense disdain as he said, "Hmph! You are just a prostitute, how can you be so arrogant here? "

With that said, Xiao Wen heard the sound of the carriage window opening.

Then, Xiao Wen heard the sound of the crossbow pulling on the trigger of a sword.

Then... There was no 'then'.

If a normal person was shot by a crossbow, if they were shot in the body or injured, they would definitely scream miserably. Even if they were not injured, they would still let out curses and complaints.

However, no one made a sound, which could only prove one thing, and that was that the person outside had been killed instantly by Guan Yu.

"Haha!" Guan Yu, the little guy, was very decisive. I've seen many new recruits who didn't dare to kill the enemy on the battlefield and ended up getting killed by them. However, those who remained would definitely become elites. I think Mr. Guan Yu will become a good soldier. " Anthony said.

Xiao Wen cast him a glance, and felt a little helpless. After all, he had never ordered Guan Yu to kill someone. However, the current Guan Yu was unable to resist his desire to battle, and this gave Xiao Wen a headache.

A strong desire to fight was a good thing. After all, compared to those who had a strong desire to fight, most of them would stop in their tracks in the face of a battle.

If a person's heart was filled with the desire to fight, then his warrior's path would definitely surpass 90%.

However, if a person was unable to control his desire for battle and allowed it to leak out, that would not be a good thing.

Therefore, Xiao Wen felt that Guan Yu should still control it.

Of course, this was not the time.

Looking at his subordinates, Xiao Wen suddenly said: "Right now, we only have one thing to do, and that is to wait. Waiting for those who think they can kill us with their bows and arrows to understand that they must charge. But the truth is, everyone, they don't know one thing. These foolish bandits can't even guarantee that they will be able to eat their fill everyday. Where did they get the strength to fight us in close combat? That's why, everyone, do you have the confidence to defeat that group of trash? "

"Yes!" Hearing Xiao Wen's words, the workers roared in unison. They were filled with an intense desire to do battle, as if they would rush out in the next moment and wipe out all the bandits.

After all, these people were all carefully selected guards by Xiao Wen. As a result, they could not be afraid of a battle.

However, at this time, a series of hissing sounds suddenly came from the distance. Immediately after, Xiao Wen felt the ground shake.

That sound made Anthony, who had been to the battlefield before, and Xiao Wen, who had stayed in the Huns, realize one thing.

However, the bandits of this era would not be equipped with a large number of cavalry like in the movies and TV dramas. Otherwise, they wouldn't have become bandits, instead just become warlords. Only the Horse Bandits on the grassland that did not lack horses had the ability to arrange cavalry — and only light cavalry.

The smelting technique of the prairie was backward, and the amount of heavy cavalry was even fewer than that of the cavalry of the Central Plains.

"Is that a burly man's cavalry?" Anthony asked.

But Xiao Wen shook his head and said: "Probably not. I have already seen the map before. The cavalry coming from that direction should be from the Tang Kingdom. I just don't know which unit they are from. "

After hearing that, Anthony suddenly said: "Sir, although this kind of behavior, using your words, should be called thinking of a petty person, acting like a lord. However, I would like to say that without sufficient supervision, soldiers would often do the same thing as thieves. And because their equipment is better, these people will probably be even more dangerous. "

"Then what should we do?" At the side, a young and strong shop assistant with a tender face asked. It was obvious that he had never done business before.

However, Xiao Wen sneered and said: "What else can we do? F * ck that bandit! As long as we kill this Mountain Thief, this group of cavalry will know that we are no pushovers. "

Upon hearing these words, killing intent immediately radiated from the crowd.

Even the workers in the horse carriage who heard this all walked out.

"Kill those bandits! Kill them all! " The waiters roared. Forget about everything else, at least as proud men, they would definitely not want to be looked down upon by the Tang Kingdom people.

From Xiao Wen's perspective, both the Han and the Tang Dynasty were great dynasties. However, in this world, many men thought that people from the Qin Kingdom, the people from the Tang Kingdom, and the people from the country of life were all not as great as the men from the big man.

Therefore, even if it was for face, they did not want to be saved by the Tang Kingdom soldiers. "We can't even catch this group of weak bandits."

Without a doubt, this was something that the proud burly man could not accept.

Although Xiao Wen didn't have any direct combat experience, he was clear on the principle of exhaustion.

If these guys were in the midst of fighting, they wouldn't be able to vent it and they would be able to build up their self-confidence. The fighting strength of this group of people would probably plummet in the future.

Therefore, Xiao Wen followed the wishes of the people and said to Anthony: "You shall command all the servants and guards here, and defeat these bandits in front of the Tang Kingdom. Remember, you must not embarrass the big size man. "

Understood!" Anthony had a face full of confidence and said, "Rest assured, sir. Although I am not a big man, I have always been a big man. I have a strong sense of recognition for the big man, so I will not allow anyone to underestimate this great country!

"If there is, I swear in the name of my family that I will never forgive them!"

After saying that, he led the soldiers and mounted his horse, charging out of the defensive perimeter of the bandits, attacking the enemy in front of him.
