The battlefield was in chaos. The Zhao army only had a few hundred men and could not completely block the Wusun army. When the two armies were fighting, the Wusun army on both sides crossed the Zhao army and rushed in front of the caravan.
"Put the goods in front to block the Wusun cavalry. Everyone is divided into two teams, follow my orders and take turns to shoot." Mao Sui looked at the Wusun cavalry getting closer and closer, his palms were full of sweat, but he remained calm on the surface.
He was as confident as if the Wusun cavalry in front of him were just chickens and dogs, vulnerable to a single blow.
Seeing Mao Sui being so calm, everyone gradually calmed down.
Everyone has seen this kind of scene before. When they first set off from Hetao, they often encountered bandits and Rongdi tribesmen plundering them. At this time, everyone needed to unite as one to fight against the enemy.
However, because the Zhao army was so powerful, well-equipped, and fast, none of the tribesmen who dared to rob the tribes left alive. Sometimes the Zhao army would chase these tribes to their gathering places and rob them in turn.
As time passed, no one dared to attack the caravan.
Now that we encountered this situation again, everyone was both familiar and unfamiliar. After a brief panic, they quickly divided into two teams and aimed their crossbows forward.
The shaking of the earth became more and more intense. The horse stood on the spot, snoring uneasily. The Zhao merchant stared ahead nervously, not daring to relax for a moment.
"Listen to my order and bring the enemy closer before attacking." Mao Sui said in a deep voice.
Compared with the military crossbows, the crossbows they use are less lethal and have less range. If they don't get closer to the enemy and hit them, they will only waste the crossbow arrows.
Although the crossbow arrows can be recovered after being fired, some will inevitably be lost or damaged, and they don't have many crossbow arrows left.
No one answered, everyone was holding their breath, waiting for orders.
"Let go!" When the Wusun cavalry had only fifty steps left, Mao Sui could even see the ferocious smile on the faces of the Wusun cavalry and gave the order.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
"Whoosh whoosh!"
…
The three-shot crossbow machine released three hundred crossbow arrows at the same time, covering the Wusun cavalry in front of them indiscriminately.
The cold arrows cut through the space and mercilessly penetrated the bodies of the soldiers and horses. How could these soldiers and horses, who didn't even have armor, resist the sharp crossbows?
The horse that had been hit by an arrow suddenly fell to the ground, and the soldiers fell from their horses and were trampled under their feet by the cavalry behind them.
The cavalry behind them were constantly tripped to the ground because of the obstruction in front, and the scene was extremely chaotic.
"The second team releases arrows, and the first team loads arrows." Mao Sui ordered again.
…
Lian An turned around and glanced at the soldiers behind him. More than a hundred of the more than four hundred soldiers had been killed in the battle, and only about three hundred were left, and the number was still decreasing. Every one of the surviving soldiers was injured.
In the past two years, this was the first time that Zhao Jun suffered such heavy losses. All previous enemies combined did not suffer as much loss as Wusun.
After a long battle, the Zhao army was at the end of its strength. If it continued like this, it was very likely that the entire army would be annihilated.
"So what if you are powerful? So what if you can beat ten with one? As long as you are not out of the realm of human beings, you will fall in front of the human sea tactics. Go to hell, Zhao Ren!"
Kun Jian sneered and slashed at Lian An with all his strength. Each blow was heavier than the other. The violent inner energy set off a biting wind and passed by Lian An's ears. Lian An quickly turned sideways to avoid it, but a blood stain was still left on his cheek.
"Mother, I'll kill you first." Although he didn't understand what Kun Jian was saying, judging from his expression, Lian An also knew it wasn't a good thing.
The inner energy in his body was gushing like a great river, rushing into the big halberd crazily. Lian An waved the big halberd desperately, raising a blood-colored energy with a radius of ten feet. A golden light appeared on the surface, and he hit Kun Jian hard on the chest.
go.
Kun Jian desperately waved his sword to resist. In just a few breaths, his whole body was blown away like a kite with its string broken, and blood spilled from mid-air to the ground.
The remaining power of the halberd awn was not reduced, and it split the war horse under Kun Jian's crotch into two halves, and then split into three, turning into three smaller halberd awns, killing all the Wusun soldiers in a radius of more than ten meters.
"It's still a little short of a foundation." Lian An gasped for breath. Just now he was only one step away from breaking through to the transcendent realm, but in the end he failed.
If he could break through, Kun Jian would definitely die, but now he is probably only seriously injured.
"However, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has increased recently, and the difficulty of breaking through to the extraordinary realm has dropped a lot than before. Five years ago, my father said that it was almost impossible to reach the extraordinary realm with my talent. If nothing happens now, within three years I will
It will definitely reach the extraordinary state." Lian An thought in his heart.
Although personal bravery is not the most important thing on the battlefield, no man does not want to possess a powerful force, and after reaching the transcendent realm, he can fly and his lifespan will be greatly improved.
The remaining Wusun cavalry all stopped and looked at Lian An with great fear.
After fighting for such a long time, most of the comrades were killed. If the monarch, the prime minister, and Dalu were not watching from behind, and their families were still in the hands of the monarch, they would have fled like the army in front.
However, now the general has been severely injured and does not know whether he is alive or dead. Even if the king is at the rear, he cannot suppress the fear in their hearts.
Looking at Zhao Jun, who was covered in blood and filled with murderous intent, and then at the corpses everywhere, the remaining thousand Wusun soldiers began to retreat slowly.
They have completely lost their fighting spirit!
"What are they doing!" King Wusun looked at the retreating Wusun army, trembling with anger.
Even if five thousand people didn't fight five hundred people, they were so frightened that they ran away. These were his direct guards! And he was right behind him! It was so embarrassing that he was thrown into grandma's house!
"Your Majesty, calm down!" Wusun Lian hurriedly leaned over and said, "The Zhao army is elite. It is very rare for them to fight to this level."
King Wusun tried his best to suppress his inner anger, but in the end he did not say anything to deal with it.
What Xiang Wusun said is right, it is very rare for a large army to fight to this level.
"Send someone to tell Zhao Jun that as long as they surrender, I am willing to give them the highest standard of treatment." After a moment, King Wusun said in a deep voice.
When things have reached this level, if we let this group of people leave, they will not only offend the State of Zhao, but also embarrass themselves in front of dozens of countries in the Western Regions. In the future, King Wusun will have the face to lead Wusun, and how will the Wusun people respect themselves in front of others?
Have to start.
But if this group of Zhao people can be recruited, things will be completely different. From then on, no one from the surrounding countries dares to look down on Wusun.
"Your Majesty is wise." Everyone said with their hands in hand, King Wusun had indeed made a correct decision.
"Withdraw!" Lian An glanced in the direction of King Wusun. Although he didn't know King Wusun, he could not be an ordinary person wearing silk and being surrounded by so many people.
