332. The first show of the scorpion-tailed tiger air cavalry

When flying at high speed and at an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, the range is as long as four or five miles. Even a sharpshooter is difficult to guarantee a target.

But it doesn't matter. The weight of the arrows is reduced, which makes each scorpion-tailed tiger air cavalry carry more arrows. Five arrow pouches are hung on both sides of the scorpion-tailed tiger. Each sac can place thirty sharp arrows. The number of arrows is so large that all archery soldiers are outrageous.

The mission of the Scorpion-tailed Tiger Air Cavalry is to try to pour the sharp arrows in the arrow bag towards the enemy formation while avoiding the enemy's attack.

Even if ten sharp arrows can kill an enemy, a scorpion-tailed tiger air cavalry can easily kill thirty targets, and two thousand scorpion-tailed tiger air cavalry is 60,000.

When the arrow is shot, even if there are remaining enemies, they will definitely not be able to withstand the hand-to-hand attack of the Scorpion-tailed Tiger Air Cavalry!

Ma Wu's scalp was numb and he watched hundreds or thousands of sharp arrows attacking the military formation. Even if it was not the power of the steel bow, the sharp arrows smashed at this height could easily penetrate the soldiers' iron armor and the bodies of soldiers!

What's even more terrifying is that the archery speed of these scorpion-tailed tiger cavalry is so terrifying that there is no need to rest at all. The arrow rain attacks of two thousand scorpion-tailed tiger cavalry are actually more dense than those of tens of thousands of archers!

The sound of a broken arrow shaft sounded, and in a blink of an eye, hundreds of sword-holders died under the first wave of arrow rain attacks of the Scorpion-tailed Tiger Air Cavalry.

Ma Wu's heart was bleeding instantly. These were all real elites. The brave men among the Brazilian county people were all warriors with one battle against three on the front battlefield. It was difficult to kill a hundred sword weapons without paying three times the price.

Now, these most powerful and brave warriors couldn't even see the face of the enemy clearly, and died without any resistance under the sharp arrows of the Scorpion-tailed Tiger Air Cavalry!

"Secretly hidden on the spot! Launch the bed crossbow!"

The drum beat loudly, the flag was waving, and Ma Wu's order was quickly released.

Originally, Ma Wu planned to wait for the scorpion-tailed tiger air cavalry to get closer, or lower the height before firing the crossbow.

Unfortunately, the scorpion-tailed tiger cavalry just circled and shot arrows above the army, without having to get close to the sword-headed army.

Ma Wu knew that it was extremely difficult to shoot the scorpion-tailed tiger cavalry at such a distance, but there was no way. He could not watch the other party shoot his troops all over!

The military technology of Dashu is definitely the best in the Three Kingdoms. After all, Zhuge Liang, the great inventor, was developed by Zhuge Liang himself.

There are even more terrifying and larger large weapons in the Shu army. However, when fighting in the Nanhua Mountains, transporting these small and medium-sized bed crossbows is already the limit. The more powerful God-slaying giant crossbows, Qilin Tian trains, etc., and Bagua God-slaying cannons cannot be transported into Nanhua Mountains.

The attack range of a small bed crossbow can reach five or six miles, but this requires straight shooting or condescending shooting. The upward shooting height can barely reach four miles, so I won’t talk about the accuracy.

Because the air is thin when flying in the mountains, the maximum height of the Scorpion-tailed Tiger Air Cavalry is about 1,500 meters, which is equivalent to a height of three miles.

But this is a vertical height, and the bed crossbow is tilted and the distance is much longer, so it can barely shoot at the scorpion tail winged tiger cavalry.

In any case, the scorpion-tailed tiger-air cavalry is not small in size, even at an altitude of two thousand meters, and it looks quite the size of a falcon. For the trained Shu army crossbowman, it is still very likely to hit the target.

Staying in Mawu's central army, there were two white-headed wooden oxen and flowing horses, with bed crossbows or fire dragon cannons on their backs, plus bed crossbow parts transported by strong men and cattle and carriages in the army. Mawu's central army had more than 300 bed crossbows alone. This time, it launched a counterattack, and hundreds of giant arrows made a harsh sound of breaking through the air, which was quite terrifying.

Except for the attacks by the crossbowmen, the rest of the sword-holding weapons were hidden in early digging holes or piled up rocks to prevent the sharp arrows of the scorpion-tailed tiger-shaped cavalry.

The power of the steel bow, coupled with the triangular arrows and condescending gravity factors, makes the arrow penetration of the scorpion-tailed tiger cavalry extremely amazing. Even the double-layer iron-skinned iron-wood shield is difficult to resist the shooting of arrows. This method of digging pits and piles of stones is simple but quite practical.

Hundreds of powerful bed crossbows launched an attack. Although the range is only three miles, this range is an effective range. It does not mean that the giant arrow is unable to fall when it reaches three miles.

These giant arrows are not a big threat to Qianyuan Guards who wear steel armor and practice the triple golden bell cover. However, the scorpion tail winged tiger under the seat and the scorpion tiger armor on the body only protect the chest, abdomen, neck and other key points, making it difficult to protect the whole body. Once shot by a crossbow, they will definitely be seriously injured or even die.

There are gains and losses.

The Scorpion-tailed Tiger Air Cavalry can use the Scorpion-tailed Tiger to attack the enemy condescendingly.

Similarly, once the scorpion tiger is injured and falls, the power of such a height, plus the heavy steel armor equipment on his body, let alone the third and fourth-grade martial artist Wu Zong, even the fifth-grade Wu Zong, may have to be crushed to pieces and die on the spot!

The attack of the sword-holder still made the Scorpion-tailed Tiger Air Cavalry very afraid.

Because the bed crossbows were extremely dense, they fired at the dense places of the scorpion-tailed tiger cavalry. In an instant, two scorpion-tailed tiger cavalry were shot under the seat, and their bodies tilted, falling down with humans and beasts.

Fortunately, although the scorpion-tailed tiger was injured, it could barely maintain balance. Although the descent speed was rapid, it would not fall directly. If you are lucky, even humans and beasts could save their lives. However, if you want to join the battle again, there would be no possibility.

Chu He frowned, and the ebony whistle in his mouth made a clear sound, and he issued his orders with a whistle.

With Chu He's strength, it is not impossible to spread across the entire army with a deep shout, but in order to keep it confidential, all military orders are still issued through special sounds or flag words.

As the whistle sounded, the scorpion-tailed tiger air cavalry quickly changed its formation, and the two thousand scorpion-tailed tigers quickly dispersed, not giving the sword-headed army a chance to concentrate attacks. They used the wolves tactic to eliminate the enemy in the movement.

Although the bed crossbow is powerful, two fatal weaknesses are inevitable. The first is the low firing rate, and the second is the difficulty of steering. As long as the scorpion-tailed tiger continues to maintain a fast flight state and constantly changes its flight route, it can greatly reduce the threat of the bed crossbow.

Of course, even if the bed crossbow is not easy to turn, there are two thousand scorpion-tailed tigers circling in the air, and they can always quickly find the target to shoot. Whether they can avoid the shooting of the bed crossbow depends on the ability of the scorpion-tailed tiger air cavalry.

In addition, as Chu He's order was issued, dozens of fifth-grade elite scorpion tail tigers quickly flew out from behind Chu He, and the mounts on it were all fourth-grade peak powerhouses.

These elite scorpion-tailed tigers with stronger and faster power are not just archers. Each scorpion tiger has two huge skins under its claws, and there are also a dozen slightly smaller skins hanging on both sides.

Needless to say, this is naturally a special type of troops responsible for destroying the enemy's air defense forces, kerfighters!

Dozens of fifth-grade scorpion-tailed tigers roared out, hundreds of them filled with hot tinder oil, weighing more than 15,000 kilograms of hot tinder suddenly threw them towards Ma Wu Central Army. In a blink of an eye, a small half of the formation of the sword-headed army was covered with hot tinder oil, especially those wooden ox and horses and bed crossbow battle formations.

After dropping the harsh tinder, the cavalry on it ignited the rocket without hesitation and roared and shot downwards.

Chu He studied smelting in university for four years, and of course he also involved things like coal and gasoline. These fierce tinder oils are refined products, and their power is far more powerful than ordinary military tinder oils. After dozens of rockets descended, they instantly ignited the sky in the formation of the sword-headed army!

Ma Wu discovered something was wrong when the scorpion-tailed tiger cavalry dropped their skins, but unfortunately he could not stop Chu He's attack at all.

They were able to use the crossbow to deal with the scorpion-tailed tiger-air cavalry. Chu He did not expect this, and the turret soldiers were specially prepared for this.

Although it is spring and summer, the mountains are very humid and the trees are lush, the burning of the harsh turmeric oil is not affected at all.

Under the blowing of the mountain wind, the wet water vapor decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen even under the action of the flames, making the fire more violent. Some shrubs, ferns, etc. quickly ignited, and the formation of half a sword-headed army had turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Under such a terrifying fire, even the brave sword-holding soldiers could not remain calm. They screamed and ran out of the earth pit and rocks. In an instant, the entire central army fell into chaos.

Although Ma Wu quickly ordered the troops to cover the fire with earth bags and other bags to transfer various weapons, unfortunately most of the crossbows were still burned by the flames.

Although the sparse bed crossbow arrows can also pose a certain threat to the Scorpion-tailed Tiger Cavalry, they can no longer resist the Scorpion-tailed Tiger Cavalry outside the military formation.

Seeing the sword-holding weapons that turned into fireballs below, Qianyuan Guard was not ruthless at all, but was full of murderous aura and the rain of arrows became increasingly dense.

You should know that the previous waves of crossbow attacks of the sword-leading army shot and killed more than a dozen comrades and mounts. For only two thousand scorpion-tailed tiger-shaped cavalry, it was definitely a heavy loss.

Chu He spent money on a scorpion-tailed tiger cavalry, enough to cultivate three hidden abyss guards, thirty generals, usually set up troops, or even hundreds of swords and soldiers!

Now that more than a dozen cavalry have been lost, even if all these thousands of swords and weapons are killed, it will be difficult to relieve the hatred in the scorpion-tailed tiger cavalry!

War is not a fairy tale, exercises are not practical combat. Although the scorpion-tailed tiger cavalry is powerful, it really fights the enemy army for the first time, which exposes some shortcomings that were previously undetectable.

Chu He never thought that he could win without being injured, but the casualties of more than a dozen scorpion-tailed tiger cavalrymen still made Chu He's face dark.

Seeing the four or five hundred flying cavalrymen of the sword-tailed army soaring into the air and intending to make a final counterattack, Chu He snorted coldly, slightly clamped the winged tiger with his feet, Tianlong Breaking the City Sphur with one finger, and with dozens of personal guards, he suddenly killed the flying cavalrymen of the sword-tailed army!

For any army, flying cavalry is extremely precious. Normally, it is impossible for the sword-headed sergeant to have so many flying cavalry. It is obviously mobilized specifically to deal with the scorpion-tailed tiger-shaped cavalry.

As long as all these flying cavalry were killed, the Shu army would definitely become blind and blind for a period of time, and it would be difficult to detect the situation in Nanhua Mountain and spy on the movements of Changding Army!

Chu He personally committed suicide, and the morale of the scorpion-tailed tiger-air cavalry suddenly surged, and their blood became stronger. Many cavalry with more skilled cavalry had lowered their heights, and pointed the sharp arrows at the sword-holding weapons that were still operating the bed crossbow, and implemented the point-killing tactic!

Two thousand meters away, the Scorpion-tailed Tiger Cavalry could not hit the target, but when it dropped to a height of one thousand meters, all the Scorpion-tailed Tiger Cavalry turned into archers.

This is also the most basic requirement for the scorpion-tailed tiger cavalry. Shoot the target within two miles, and no one arrow is allowed to break off the target when shooting at rest. When flying at high speed, ten arrows must hit the target eight arrows!

The terrifying accuracy and high-speed shooting have made the Scorpion-tailed Tiger Cavalry a deadly god of death.

In a blink of an eye, there were no alive soldiers next to the dozens of bed crossbows left by the sword-holding army. Even if Ma Wu tried his best to drive the soldiers forward to control the bed crossbow to fight back, he would be unable to turn things around.

As more scorpion-tailed tiger cavalry lowered their height, even if Ma Wu regained control of the bed crossbow, he would not have done anything.

Ma Wu originally thought that with the battle formation composed of wooden ox and flowing horses, the battle line composed of more than 200 crossbows and a large number of fire dragon cannons, he could hold the scorpion-tailed tiger-shaped cavalry for an hour, and even thought that he could repel Chu He.

Unexpectedly, a big fire completely destroyed all his delusions. In just two or three quarters of an hour, the eight thousand elite sword-holding soldiers were completely destroyed by the scorpion-tailed tiger cavalry, and fled in panic and could not be summoned to gather them.

Although you may be better prepared when fighting with the Scorpion-tailed Tiger Cavalry next time, at least you will have more ways to resist the Arrow Rain Offensive and the Fierce Oil Offensive of the Scorpion-tailed Tiger Cavalry, there is no way to imagine now.

The flying cavalry with swordsman rising into the air, facing the extremely fierce scorpion-tailed tiger-air cavalry, was not an enemy of one unit. Even the most elite, the mounts and warriors were all super flying cavalry of the fifth-grade realm, and they were easily killed by Chu He with one shot.

Ma Wu's face turned gray. After sending out the message talisman, he ordered people to ring the golden gong, then pulled out his sword and committed suicide. After being stopped by his personal guards, he stopped insisting and quickly escaped with the protection of his personal guards.

Chu He had long been paying attention to the situation of Ma Wu's banner, so he would not let Ma Wu escape. If he took Ma Wu, he would definitely know the more detailed arrangements of the Shu army. He immediately controlled the scorpion-tailed tiger and chased him with dozens of personal guards.

Without the protection of the army, only a few hundred personal guards followed him, so Ma Wu certainly could not escape Chu He's pursuit.

This short and tragic battle ended soon.

Of course, the word tragic is for the sword-headed soldiers. More than 5,000 soldiers were shot and burned to death, and more than 400 flying cavalry were almost completely injured and killed. Ma Wu, the chief general, was also captured alive by Chu He.

The remaining one or two thousand remaining soldiers fled into the mountains and valleys, and were scared by the scorpion-tailed tiger-air cavalry, and it was almost impossible for them to gather the opponent's Chang Ding Army again.
