However, the shield can only cover a limited area, at most protecting some vital parts. The lower body and the warhorse under the rider are still covered by arrows.
"Puff puff puff!!"
"Ah....Ah~.."
In an instant, more than two hundred Northern Wuhuan soldiers were hit by arrows that pierced through the gaps, screaming as they fell from their horses, and the warhorses that were hit also collapsed and could not get up.
