Chapter 518 The war begins!
It's getting dark.
Zhu Feng stood on the top of the city wall, looking at the vast snowfield in front of him, which was dark and gloomy, as if covered by a thick gray curtain.
His brows slowly furrowed.
At this moment, the top of the city wall was already full of soldiers, and all the soldiers below were ready.
Everyone held their breath in the cold wind.
Ye Zheng was also wearing armor, holding a sword in his hand, standing beside Zhu Feng.
On the other side of him was Zhu Chengxuan, who was also very young, wearing armor, holding a sword, and trembling slightly.
That little face was so pale that it was bloodless.
Only Ran Xiaoyu stood behind him, gently reaching out to hold his shoulder, signaling him not to be afraid.
At this moment, a light appeared on the distant snowfield.
Then, another little bit, and another little bit.
In an instant, countless lights flashed, as if the Milky Way fell in front of us in an instant.
Zhu Feng said in a deep voice: "Get ready!"
Upon hearing his order, the flag bearers on the two corner towers hurriedly waved their flags and used flag signals to inform everyone. Immediately, the soldiers standing at the front of the tower raised the heavy shields in their hands.
At this time, a loud horn sounded across the vast snowfield.
“Woo—”
Like the howl of a wolf, it came with the biting north wind and penetrated people's muscles and bones.
At this moment, the light spots that were flashing in the distance suddenly flew up and shot towards them like countless streams.
That's an arrow!
Arrows of fire!
At this moment, countless arrows illuminated the dark night above the city of Peking, and flew towards them like lightning.
Immediately, the erected shields were subjected to a barrage of attacks. All they could hear was the sound of clattering. Most of the arrows were blocked by the shields or hit the city walls.
However, the archers of the Dian State did not stop.
They seemed to have prepared three groups of archers. After the first group shot the arrow, they immediately took a step back and retreated to the second line to prepare to draw the bow and string and ignite the oilcloth on the arrow. The archers behind them who had already ignited the arrow immediately stepped forward and shot the arrow out.
Therefore, countless arrows continued to fly without stopping.
Some arrows passed through the gaps between the shields and pierced the bodies of the soldiers behind the shields. Suddenly, screams were heard and the shields fell.
More arrows flew towards us!
Some people standing behind the city wall, and even the soldiers under the city wall who were preparing to charge, were injured by arrows. For a while, screams were heard one after another.
Suddenly, there was a panic on the city wall, and someone shouted, "Hold on!"
"Hold on!"
"We can't let the shield wall break!"
Immediately, the soldiers behind rushed up in the rain of arrows, held up the fallen shields, and continued to form a high shield wall, while the people behind hurriedly dragged down the wounded soldiers and corpses who were shot by arrows.
However, the rain of arrows became more and more intense.
Zhu Feng said in a deep voice: "Archers, prepare!"
"yes!"
A group of archers behind him immediately drew their bows and walked forward. When the enemy's arrows flew towards them, they paused briefly and then immediately shot the arrows through the gaps between the shields.
Suddenly, bursts of wailing were heard from the distance below the city wall.
And then they heard heavy footsteps.
A gust of wind swept across the snowfield, howling and blowing the snow.
The army of the Neng State is now galloping towards them.
