Chapter 333: Yi Clan’s Crossbow

The destruction of 100,000 monsters was not a trivial matter even for the wealthy families in the sky, which were full of monsters.

So, taking advantage of the truce, the goddess returned to the heavenly court as soon as possible and complained to her old man Di Jun and her uncle Taiyi and two crows. Of course, there was a lot of added fuel to it.

How did the Tiannv Ba complain and not mention it? It only said that the Youxiong Tribe has lost the help of the most proud immortal power, but after all, it has been preparing for many years. It is determined by intentional calculations, and has a lot of soldiers and generals and is skillful in combat. As soon as the battle begins the next day, the Youxiong Tribe beat the Yan Emperor Tribe into a scattered water.

However, as the largest tribe in the prehistoric world, the Yan Emperor tribe itself has a population of more than 5 million, and the strong people have more than one million. In addition to some other affiliated tribes that rushed to hear the news, the total force of the Yan Emperor tribe reached nearly two million.

Although in terms of the elite level of soldiers, the cooperation of tactics during the battle formation, etc., are far less than that of the Youxiong Tribe. After all, in order to protect the home, the soldiers of the Yan Emperor Tribe are all brave enough to take the lead, and are really going one after another, extremely brave.

Therefore, despite the continuous battles, the army of the Yan Emperor tribe was killed by the Youxiong tribe by nearly 500,000, which was really corpses everywhere and blood flowed into a river. However, the Youxiong tribe also paid a free price, and the 500,000 army lost more than 100,000, and countless injured people. For this reason, the Youxiong tribe had to redirect reinforcements from its tribe again and again.

The battle has been going on for more than a month, and both sides are exhausted. They are just relying on their tenacious perseverance to hold on.

At this moment, a reinforcements arrived, finally breaking the equal-to-eight situation between the two sides. This reinforcements were soldiers of the Jiuli tribe.

The Jiuli tribe is located in the Jianghan River Basin, which is roughly equivalent to the current area of ​​Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi.

Because it is far away from Shaanxi where the Yan Emperor tribe is located, and it is mainly heavy infantry, after a long journey, I arrived at the Yan Emperor tribe in one month. Only the elite soldiers of the Jiuli tribe can do this.

This time, in addition to the Jiang You tribe and its alliance forces, there was another tribe, which was the Dongyi tribe alliance headed by the Kuiwei clan.

Originally, the Dongyi tribe was mainly divided into two branches, the Shaohao tribe, the direct descendant of the Earth Emperor Taihao Fuxi, and the Kuiwei tribe (Kuafu tribe). Later, the Shaohao tribe had a feud with the Kuiwei tribe for some reason. After being defeated and fled, he surrendered to the Youxiong Xuanyuan tribe, which was later Fenghou and his troops.

The remaining Kuiwei clan also has close relationships with the witch clan, so they have had a good relationship with the Jiuli tribe for many lifetimes.

This time, he followed the persuasion of the Jiuli tribe, responded to the order of the human race of the Yan Emperor tribe, and cooperated with the Jiuli tribe to reinforce the Yan Emperor and attack the Youxiong tribe.

Because of its strong bloodline of the Giant and Spiritual tribes, the Jiuli tribe and the Kuiwei tribe are far superior to the Youxiong tribe. Although there were only 200,000 reinforcements this time, and the tired army that was raided from a long distance, once the war started, they could kill the 500,000 Youxiong soldiers who were also bronze protective of the body and were defeated.

The reason why such brilliant results were not only because the Jiuli tribe was brave, but more importantly, the Dongyi tribe dispatched a relatively special tribe, the Yi tribe.

The Yi clan is good at shooting, and his archery skills are the leader in the prehistoric world.

In addition, the Yi tribe has recently invented a strategic long-range strike weapon, a large crossbow.

This kind of large crossbow has a somewhat similar appearance to an extra-large bow and arrow. Usually, a large crossbow requires several people to cooperate before it can be controlled, and the arrow branches shot out are also extremely huge, as thick as an ordinary person's arm and several feet long.

Although it is bulky, the power of this thing is unquestionable.

Speaking of which, in Xiong Daying, when he learned that the reinforcements from the Jiuli tribe had arrived, the Xuanyuan clan leader was secretly frightened and hurriedly attracted Feng Hou, Li Mu and others discussed countermeasures.

"What's there to be afraid of!" Muyang Ren Limu shouted indifferently, "Now the soldiers who have bears are equipped with bronze armor. With the skills of a certain family, in the battle tomorrow, Guan Bao will kill the barbarians of the Jiuli tribe crying and shouting for their parents, kneeling down and begging for mercy!"

Surprisingly, Feng Hou did not argue with Li Mu this time, and nodded slightly, and said confidently, "You Dao is the general who comes to block the water and soil. I, Youxiong tribe, won consecutive battles, and today I happened to add 100,000 new troops from the tribe. The strength is not inferior to that of Jiuli's tired army. If you add to the Eighth Formation, you should have no problem to defeat those vulgar people in the Jiuli tribe!"

As for the general Dahong who was always cold-faced, he just nodded slightly to Gongsun Xuanyuan and said that there was no problem, so he raised his face again and made a wooden sculpture.

The three generals under his command were all confident. The Xuanyuan clan leader was slightly convinced and discussed with the three of them for a long time. It was not until all the details were confirmed that the meeting ended.

The next morning, Fenghou, Li Mu and Dahong lit up an army of 300,000, and rushed straight to the Jiuli tribe's camp. Chang Xian led a hundred thousand troops to block the Yan Emperor tribe, and Gongsun Xuanyuan led 100,000 elite troops to support him.

When Feng Hou and others led their troops to the battlefield, they found that the Jiuli tribe was already ready for battle.

Limu came out of the left army, Dahong came out of the right army, Fenghou led 100,000 troops to the center, and the three armies formed a horn and walked slowly. Three hundred thousand pairs of bronze war boots hit the ground in unison, shaking the earth within a radius of nearly a hundred miles.

Seeing that he was two hundred steps away from the Jiuli army, Fenghou waved the flag, and the 100,000 troops stopped in an instant, and it was really a ban on orders.

Generally speaking, the range of archers is at a distance of 150 steps. Even if a few of them can shoot arrows beyond this distance, most of them are exhausted. However, to be safe, the Fenghou still sets this distance at 200 steps.

The flag danced again, but this time it sent orders to the two armies on the left and right back to keep them equal to themselves. At the same time, the central army within the Fenghou began to adjust its troops and prepare to change the marching formation to the eight formations in order to fight with the enemy.

However, before the formation of Fenghou's troops could be adjusted, the army of the Jiuli tribe in the other side began to change its formation.

But the heavy armored shield soldiers in the front row of Jiuli tribe quickly lined up on both sides, revealing rows of bronze crossbows behind him, no more than a few, exactly one thousand.

"Zhang Nu!" The patriarch of the Yi clan shouted with a solemn expression. After all, it was the first time he had tried this weapon of mass destruction on the battlefield. The patriarch of the Yi clan seemed quite excited.

Upon hearing the order from the clan leader, the messenger quickly waved the flag and shouted loudly. The rows of messengers below waved the flag and shouted loudly, "Zhang Nu!"

With the sound of the "squeaking" bowstring, the two soldiers worked together to twist the crossbow string, spreading a large crossbow, and another soldier quickly pressed the specially made large crossbow arrows on the crossbow string.

"Let me go!" This time, the patriarch of the Yi clan roared, and his voice instantly preached all the crossbowmen's ears.

So, a thousand giant crossbow arrows, which were three or six feet long, flashed with a cold and cold light, pierced straight into the military formation of Fenghou's troops.

These thousand large crossbows were created by the wisdom and wealth of the entire Yi clan. The crossbow strings in it consumed the alien beast tendons that the Yi clan had hunted and exchanged over the past dynasties. The creation of the crossbow body consumed countless gold and hundreds of years of hard work by skilled craftsmen.

Although the cost of building is quite high, the results of the first battle of this big crossbow are also extremely brilliant.

As a heavy long-range weapon with an effective range of 800 steps and an optimal range of less than 600 steps, the two armies have not yet fought. The Yi tribe's thousands of large crossbows faced the dense formation of the Youxiong Tribe. The first round of volley shots killed nearly 5,000 people in the Youxiong Tribe. In addition, the trampling, collision and other injuries caused by the formation disorder, which immediately resulted in nearly 10,000 casualties in the Youxiong Tribe.

More importantly, this wave of scattered shots made the originally neat formation of the Bear Tribe so disordered that it was a little disordered.

Next, the Yi tribe crossbow formation, after five consecutive rounds of volleys, shot dead and injured more than 20,000 people.

"Not good!" The enemy actually had such powerful long-range strike weapons, which was beyond Fenghou's expectations.

Although Feng Hou had commanded the soldiers to be prepared quickly, this big crossbow committee was too powerful and far from being able to fight against ordinary people.

At this moment, the troops on both sides had not yet arrived at the predetermined position. Fenghou's ears came the sound of the clan leader Yi's roar.

This crossbow arrow is too perverted? It’s less than half a quarter of an hour. Including those minor and serious wounded people, my troops have lost nearly one-third of their troops in a mess. If this continues and the two armies are in place, the 100,000 troops I have led this time will probably be lost before the battle will be fought!

Moreover, if you just go to war this time, if you retreat, it will not only affect the overall morale, but also be easily blocked by the enemy, forming a defeat, and may even implicate the left and right armies following closely behind.

His mind changed rapidly, and the wind made a decision in an instant. He could no longer care about the horn-paced momentum and the eight formations. He quickly ordered his soldiers to say, "Roar! Bounce up!"

The Yi tribe opposite seemed quite calm at this moment.

When Feng Hou rushed forward for only a hundred steps, the Yi tribe's crossbow formation had completed four-wheeled volleys again. Then all the crossbow soldiers quickly put away their large crossbows, dodged their bodies, and retreated to the rear of the military formation.

Behind the crossbow formation, there were 20,000 archers from the Yi clan. At this moment, they had already twisted their bows and placed arrows, aiming at Fenghou's military formation.

"Let me go!" Clan Chief Yi roared again, and 20,000 arrow feathers fell into the army of Youxiong's army like raindrops.

When Fenghou's army advanced sixty meters again and reached forty meters in front of the Yi clan formation, each of the Yi clan soldiers shot a pot of fifty arrows.

Although the soldiers of the Bear Tribe were also wearing heavy armor, due to their physical fitness, the heavy armor was much worse than the Jiuli Tribe. As for the wooden shield, it was even more difficult to resist the strong bow and crossbow of the Yi tribe.

Therefore, under the shooting of the archers of the Yi clan, nearly half of Fenghou's troops had been lost. Only about 50,000 people could maintain their full combat power.

"Retreat!" Under the command of the Yi clan leader, the Yi clan archers once again dispersed and retreated in an orderly manner, revealing the Jiuli tribe and the heavy infantry of the Kuiwei tribe in the rear.
