Chapter 22: The Divine Bow Shows Its Power and Shocks the Barbarians

"Qin Zhuan is indeed an undercover agent of the Tan family army."

"The Tan family army was well prepared and set up a tight net."

"It was too dark, and they couldn't tell friend from foe, so they shot and killed Qin Zhuan's team."

"We weren't spared either. Out of a team of over eighty people, only a dozen returned."

"Damn Qin Zhuan."

Uwe gritted his teeth and suddenly noticed the arrow stuck in the guy's shoulder.

He stepped forward and looked at it and asked, "What kind of arrow is this?"

The young leader said truthfully, "These are the arrows used by the Tan family army. We were hit when we were only a mile away from the city wall."

"Hit by an arrow a mile away?" Uwei's face was filled with disbelief.

The nearby generals were also shocked.

The young leader continued, "This type of arrow not only has a long range, but is also extremely powerful. It can easily penetrate shields and armor."

"Look at my shield..."

He threw the shield to the ground.

"The arrow in my shoulder pierced through my shield and then pierced through my armor."

"Hiss..." Uwe took a breath of cold air.

"So, if our army launches a massive attack on the city, we will suffer heavy casualties before we even reach the walls."

"Yes!" The little leader nodded heavily.

"Fortunately, you followed Jiang Wu's advice, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable!"

"The bows used by the Tan family army can also release a thin red line, which seems to be used for aiming."

"A thin red line?" Uwe was a little confused.

The young leader hurriedly explained: "I and the soldiers who escaped back saw it all."

"Damn it, never mind, let's withdraw first."

Uwe had originally planned to set up an ambush and try to storm the city, but now he feels scared when he thinks about it.

"Your Majesty, Qin Zhuan is back."

At this time, a big man came over.

"Qin Zhuan was shot by several arrows, and his armor was penetrated. His condition is very serious, and he needs medical treatment as soon as possible."

"Seek medical attention!"

Qin Zhuan's face turned fierce. "Wash him clean and put him in the soup pot. Cook him and eat the meat."

"Commander, the barbarian army has retreated, retreated..."

An old soldier from the Tan family was so excited that he shed tears.

I thought this would be a life-or-death battle to defend the city, but unexpectedly, the situation was reversed.

"We won, we won..."

“Ahh…”

The soldiers stood on the city wall, waving their weapons and flags, and bursting into cheers.

"We only had a few thousand men, but in a single encounter we frightened off a barbarian army of 400,000. This feat will be recorded in history books."

A soldier who understood the situation said, "This is the blessing of the gods."

"If the gods hadn't sent us this incredibly powerful composite bow, we wouldn't have been able to scare off the barbarian army so easily."

"The methods of the gods are too profound and unfathomable."

"And Jiang Wu also made great contributions."

"And the coach, he remained calm in the face of danger and commanded the troops well."

"We not only have fearless warriors like Jiang Wu, but also wise coaches and divine help. We can overcome any difficulty."

"I think we should build a temple for the gods as soon as possible to make their great grace and virtue known to the world."

"That's right. We must also engrave today's achievements in the temple so that future generations will know that the gods are blessing us."

Zi Yang said excitedly, "It's a big day today, I must have some drinks. Uh, no wine, forget it!"

Tan Junyan shook her head noncommittally.

"Zi Yang, give some of the compound bows to the soldiers guarding the city at night."

"The sight on the compound bow has night vision, making it easier to spot the enemy."

Tan Junyan gave a brief explanation and turned away.

Just now, the soldiers brought three letters from Wang Yan.

Wang Yan was very concerned about the war situation and kept asking how it was going.

You have to go back quickly and tell him in a letter.
