With a hint of trembling in his tone, Generido asked excitedly: "Is this a dragon-slaying crossbow?"
Natal nodded instinctively.
The Xinuo Continent does not have a war-killing weapon like the bed crossbow, but it does have a giant crossbow that is similar to it, and that is the dragon-slaying crossbow.
This kind of dragon-slaying crossbow is expensive to make, and its power is so amazing that even a giant dragon will avoid its edge when it sees it.
"This is not a dragon-slaying crossbow, it should be a new type of war weapon improved from the dragon-slaying crossbow." Artoria held her chin in thought for a while and said with certainty.
Many nobles couldn't help but exclaimed when they heard this. Only the disciples of Marquis Medea looked a little strange after hearing this.
They remembered what the Marquis Medea said about Aslan.
Artistic talent is higher than magical talent.
The observer raised his thumb and gestured at the advancing coalition forces.
"Five hundred meters away!"
Aslan remained unmoved, as steady as a mountain.
"Four hundred meters away!"
Aslan pulled the reins slightly, his eyes becoming sharper than ever before.
"Three hundred meters!" the observer shouted loudly.
Because he knew that the maximum powerful range of the five-piece bed crossbow was three hundred meters. Within this distance, the bed crossbow could still maintain terrifying penetration. Beyond this distance, the penetration would also decrease.
Aslan raised his hand and shouted loudly: "The crossbowmen will not start attacking until one second after the five-gun crossbow is fired. Wait for my order."
Gawain immediately understood and took over the command of the crossbowmen.
"Two hundred and fifty meters."
Aslan shouted loudly.
"attack!"
Bang bang bang bang!
The huge bowstring of the bed crossbow erupted into the wind, and the sound was clear to the ears.
Gawain saw the long arrow that was comparable to a spear shot out, and silently said "One!"
With a crash, twenty giant arrows comparable to spears were shot into the coalition array. Because they were shot diagonally, many soldiers shot through their bodies without reacting. The tails of the giant arrows were also equipped with missile-like tail fins, but
These tail fins are made of blades.
The giant arrow shot through seven or eight people before stopping, but the huge impact and terrifying blade overturned the entire area of soldiers.
Many soldiers fell to the ground without even seeing the situation clearly. Occasionally, a few lucky soldiers were hit by their comrades and could stand up again after being briefly dizzy.
But when he saw everything around him clearly, he was frightened. What he saw was full of wreckage and broken arms.
He instinctively wanted to escape, but the oncoming crossbow arrows took him away, and his consciousness gradually became blurred.
The first wave of shooting from the four five-unit crossbows directly opened a huge gap in the coalition's formation. Many soldiers were still in shock and had not recovered. The gap without shield protection was just exposed, and countless arrows were fired.
They shot in densely, like ocean waves, layer upon layer.
The coalition soldiers fell in pieces like wheat.
Everyone watching the battle couldn't help but gasp. It's not that they have never seen a large-scale archer battle, but this is the first time they have seen such an effective and terrifying killing efficiency like the Merlot Army.
Thor's face changed drastically. He had guessed countless possibilities, but he never expected such a result. Some soldiers had already begun to flee under such horrific killings.
"Supervise the battle team, kill those who retreat!"
The supervising team was almost entirely composed of junior professionals. They killed the fleeing soldiers in one go and stabilized the situation.
Thor quickly ordered the retreat distance, and he estimated it very accurately, three hundred and fifty meters.
The two armies once again distanced themselves for a confrontation. This brief wave of attacks only lasted about ten seconds.
The coalition of lords left corpses all over the place, and it was roughly estimated that there were at least a thousand corpses.
Thor frowned slightly. He was helpless. This was the first time he encountered such an opponent. He needed time to deal with it and make long-term plans.
However, the lords behind him did not give him any chance. The army had just retreated and the formation had just stabilized. The lords sent three urgent flags.
Order all the coalition forces to charge. As long as they rush in front of the Merlot Army, their crossbowmen will completely lose their combat effectiveness.
It's a beautiful idea, but it has to be implemented. Thor can guarantee that it is impossible to rush to the Merlot army without losing thousands of troops.
Sean came up on horseback and said with a very ugly face: "How about I lead the cavalry in a roundabout way?"
Thor was silent for a long time before speaking: "Then your cavalry will be very dangerous. After all, the overall structure of the Merlot Army is still there."
Sean performed a knight's salute and said firmly: "At least we can contain some of the main forces of the Merlot Army."
Aslan stood in front of the position, slowly put away his eagle eye skills, got on his horse, and shouted loudly: "Knights, our opponent is coming."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw 600 cavalry from the coalition army going around from the left wing, including a dozen knights and dozens of knight apprentices.
Arthur and Gawain did not come because they still had to command the army. The knight who followed Aslan was named Bos. He was a native of Merlo Town. He was the adopted child of Wilson. He grew up in Wilson.
Growing up around me, I was influenced by what I heard and saw, and I can be considered a cultural person.
He is nearly 1.9 meters tall and has a strong physique. In the poor environment of Merlo Town, he can still grow a lot of tendons, which shows how strong his physique is.
When Rhianning saw Boss for the first time, he thought he had barbarian blood.
The scariest thing about Baos is that he has awakened his fighting spirit without practicing fighting spirit. Although he is only a primary level fighting spirit, coupled with his natural power, he will not fall behind even against an intermediate swordsman.
He is Arthur's disciple and his most proud disciple.
Now that he is also a high-level knight, none of this matters, as long as he only knows that he has only been systematically learning fighting spirit for half a year.
"I am willing to lead the charge for your lord!" Baos shouted, raising the crescent halberd in his hand.
This is a weapon specially prepared by Aslan for Bos. It is three meters long and weighs more than 120 kilograms. It is blessed with sharp and light magic runes and can chop, chop and stab.
"It's up to you!" Aslan liked the big guy Bose very much, who would be his number one general in the future.
As long as he goes on the battlefield, he is an invincible existence, and there is no single enemy at the same level.
Aslan led nineteen knights and rushed out to meet the 600 coalition cavalry on the left wing. The heavily armored guards who were standing still also opened their long legs and chased after them.
Naturally, the speed of the war horses cannot be matched by humans. Soon the distance between the two sides was less than 200 meters. The coalition cavalry had already begun to put their long spears under their armpits and slowly raised the barrels of the spears.
Aslan also carried a gun with one hand. He did not hold the gun under his arm like most knights in the Xino continent, preparing to maximize his power in the event of impact.
He was also a battle-hardened veteran in his previous life, so he naturally has his own way of fighting.
