Among the weapons and equipment Fei Daqiang obtained this time, there were 10,000 simple versions of the Mountain-breaking Armor Crossbow alone.
It's a pity that the number of the royal capital's garrison is less than 20,000, and there is no way to use them all. Otherwise, there could really be a volley of 10,000 crossbows.
In addition to this simple version of the Mountain-breaking Armor Crossbow operated by two people, there are also 300 large-scale Mountain-breaking Armor Crossbows.
The crossbow arrows alone are more than four meters long and about twenty centimeters in diameter. If used to attack a city, they can easily penetrate the city wall. When there are enough, it is not a problem to collapse the city wall.
It's a pity that this kind of powerful weapon is not suitable for mobile combat. This time, we can't hide the enemy's team, so we can only look for opportunities next time.
"The military advisor's plan is very good! We will act according to the plan!"
Liu Ziyu thought for a moment and didn't think there was any problem. He immediately made a decision: "Commander Ling, you lead the cavalry to flank the back and seize the opportunity to raid Heimei County! Once the opponent is defeated, directly pursue and strangle them. You can't let them go easily! This We will definitely win a big victory this time!"
"Follow the order!"
Ling Hanxue clasped her fists and accepted the order.
On the surface, the tactics this time were similar to the previous failed one, but the role of the cavalry was somewhat different.
By the time Ling Hanxue appears, the general trend of the battle has probably been decided, and she will lead the cavalry to collect the kills!
"Commander Li, you are responsible for commanding the frontal troops this time. You must be careful and be sure to attack the enemy first before they take action. You must pay attention to this, not too early or too late!"
If you take action too early, the power of the Mountain-breaking Armor Crossbow cannot be fully exerted. The commander will alert the enemy and give the Black Charm County team time to prepare.
Not to mention that if you take action too late, it will be directly attacked by Heimei Commandery. That's a big deal!
After the discussion was completed, everyone began to prepare, and the army left the city and set up a battle array.
Heimei County was overjoyed when they saw Liu Ziyu leading his army out of the city.
They have the advantage in equipment, but they are not good at attacking cities, and their troops are no more than those in the city.
In order to avoid excessive casualties, the Selenium and Copper Commandery was cheaper, so they always wanted to let the Hongshang Commandery's army go out of the city for a decisive battle.
Now that they got what they wanted, the troops from Heimei Commandery cooperated and moved back a few miles to make room for Hongshang Commandery, for fear that the other party would turn around and return to the city.
"Hahahaha! Those cowering turtles in Hongshang County can't hold it in any longer and are leaving the city to die again!"
The general of Heimei Commandery looked up to the sky and laughed, overjoyed: "It must have been Hongshang Commandery who put pressure on them and ordered them to go out to fight! Those face-saving bureaucrats of Hongshang Commandery must have endured I can't bear the shame of being suppressed by our Black Charm County at the border, so I would rather let the soldiers come out and die than fight to the end!"
"The general is wise! Since those fools are willing to die, of course we must fulfill their wishes!"
The deputy general on the side smiled and clasped his fists and complimented: "It is definitely a skill of the general to give them some space to form an array! When they get more people, it will become a luxury to try to escape back to the city!"
"When our army takes advantage of the situation to pursue them, their city gates will definitely not be closed in time. We should be able to rest in the city tonight!"
The other generals and commanders heard this and nodded in agreement, praising their commander for his wisdom.
As for how many people came out of Hongshang County, they didn't care at all. Anyway, no matter how many people came out, they would only die!
The atmosphere in Heimei County was relaxed. Although they only deployed 20,000 troops outside the city, they never thought they would be defeated in a field battle.
As the order was given, the troops from Black Charm County retreated and began to take positions to form an array.
Their general wanted to defeat Hongshang Commandery in one fell swoop and took advantage of the situation to attack and seize the city.
However, commands often cannot be understood and issued very accurately and smoothly. When reflected on the array, the emphasis is placed on aggression and impact, but defensiveness is discarded!
Liu Ziyu saw the formation of Heimei Commandery from a distance and felt secretly happy.
The opponent really underestimated the enemy!
Next, it’s time for you to taste the price of underestimating the enemy!
The troops from Hongshang Commandery went out of the city to form an array as planned. From the perspective of Heimei Commandery, there was nothing unusual at all.
It’s still the same recipe as before, with a familiar taste!
But in fact, the soldiers they saw still had the same equipment as before, but the teams behind them that were out of sight were all wearing weapons and equipment sent by the central cooperative chamber of commerce.
Including six thousand mountain-piercing armor-piercing crossbows!
Liu Ziyu put almost all the royal garrison in his hands into this battle.
There are a total of 12,000 soldiers, responsible for using the armor-piercing crossbows.
There were about a thousand shield bearers at the front, wearing two sets of armor, both inner and outer, and using double-layered shields.
In addition, the rest are cavalry, divided into left and right wings to press the formation, ready to make detours and flank attacks at any time.
The general of Heimei Commandery obviously showed disdain for this. The last time he defeated Liu Ziyu's royal capital garrison, the situation was similar to now. However, at that time, Heimei Commandery only had 10,000 people!
Now they have 10,000 more people, but the team of Hongshang Commandery is even smaller than last time, so in the view of the commander of Heimei Commandery, the outcome of this battle is already determined without even having to fight!
"What a pity! There are too few soldiers in Hongshang County. If we divide them evenly, it won't be enough for each of us!"
The crossbowmen of Heimei County were very relaxed and whispered jokes.
This kind of serious violation of military discipline is absolutely not allowed under normal circumstances, but the current situation is that the Heimei Commandery is superior from top to bottom and looks down upon the Hongshang Commandery.
So even if the officer found out, he didn't stop him. After all, this is the time to grow his ambition!
Everyone had one idea in their mind: the people from Hongshang County had no chance to get close, and they would die on the way, or on the way to escape!
"go ahead!"
The troops from Hongshang Commandery began to leave the city in an orderly manner and lined up. Under the command of Li Yingjian, they moved forward steadily!
Heimeijunguo looked ahead with great ease and pride, like looking at a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
At this moment, Hongshang Commandery had not yet entered the strongest firing range of the Piercing Mountain Crossbow, so the soldiers from Heimei Commandery did not even raise their crossbows.
Because at this distance, the crossbow arrow cannot hit the opponent at all. Even if it can barely reach it, it will not pose any threat!
What they have to wait for is for these fools from Hongshang Commandery to take a step further!
Li Yingjian's face under the helmet is extremely calm, and his eyes are indifferent to everything.
After continuing to advance for a certain distance, he suddenly shouted in a deep voice: "One group is ready, six consecutive ejections!"
Before leaving the city, Hongshang Junguo's team was divided into groups according to the number of armor-piercing crossbows. Each thousand armor-piercing crossbows were in one group, and they were divided into six groups in total.
