Chapter 283 Heavy Cavalry Strong Crossbow Battalion
Lu Gan was wearing heavy armor, and his horse was also wearing heavy armor when he was sitting down. When he ran, he looked like a moving iron tower.
Through the helmet with only two eyes exposed, Lu Gan saw the infantry of the Long Family Army and Wu Chuchu in front of the formation.
"I've heard long ago that all of Long Chengen's generals are beauties. It's true! When I kill Long Chengen, these beauties will all belong to me!"
Lu Qian's blood boiled with excitement. He couldn't help but slap the horse hard and speed up the charge.
Suddenly, Wu Chuchu stepped aside, and the shield formation also gave way to gaps.
Lu Qian secretly thought that something was wrong, because when the heavy cavalry charged, opening the shield array would be suicide.
If Wu Chuchu dared to open it at this time, there must be some fraud.
But once the heavy cavalry charged, they could not stop at all. The cavalry behind pushed the cavalry in front to charge forward, and Lu Gan could only charge forward.
Black shadows flew out from the shield array, and Lu Qian suddenly felt calm. He thought that what was shot was a crossbow arrow.
Ordinary crossbow arrows could not penetrate heavy armor at all, so Lu Gan was not afraid anymore.
But the next moment, he realized that he was wrong.
A general next to him was pierced by a "crossbow arrow", his red flame armor was like paper, and his chest pierced through his back.
Lu Gan was so frightened that his spine ran cold. The "crossbow arrow" that flew out was actually two meters long.
Xilulu...boom...
The heavy cavalrymen who were shot by Fuzi's crossbow immediately fell to the ground, and the one at the front was shot through.
Dugu Jiali could see clearly that after the crossbow passed by, the divine arm bow fired, and a shower of arrows fell, piercing the armor of the Red Flame Army.
The heavy cavalry in the front fell to the ground, and the heavy cavalry in the back pressed up. The horse's legs were trapped and unable to move forward. The man and the horse were mixed together.
The bed crossbow was loaded again, and another wave of two-meter-long "crossbow arrows" was fired, and the divine arm bow fired again.
Jing Tianlie watched from the general platform as the 30,000 heavy cavalry advanced in a line. He waited for the Long Family Army's shield formation to collapse.
But the next scene almost made him vomit blood. The entire line of heavy cavalry fell to the ground and they were all huddled together. The Long family army fired arrows wildly, and the armor of the heavy cavalry was actually penetrated.
On the general stage of the Long Family Army, Long Chen saw the heavy cavalry of the Red Flame Army fall to the ground, and Dugu Jiali fired wildly with her divine arm bow.
On the opposite general stage, Jing Tianlie waved the flag again. Confucian general Chen Yuxin saw the flag and immediately led the Red Flame Army's crossbow battalion to step forward, hoping to suppress Dugu Jiali with their crossbows.
The heavy cavalry was too cumbersome and impossible to retreat. All Jing Tianlie could do was to shoot the Long family's crossbowmen.
When Long Chen saw it, he immediately changed the flag. When Dugu Jiali saw the flag of Jiangtai fluttering, she immediately ordered the divine arm bow to be thrown into the air.
The range of the Divine Arm Bow is far beyond that of the Red Flame Army's crossbows. Before the Red Flame Army started shooting, the Long Family Army's feather arrows had already fallen.
The crossbowmen had no protection, and thousands of people were shot to death in an instant.
Confucian general Chen Yuxin looked at the whizzing arrows, and secretly complained in his heart that his hard bow was not as good as the crossbow of the soldier on the opposite side, how could he fight like this!
"Pay attention to concealment!"
Confucian general Chen Yuxin shouted.
call out!
An arrow fell and almost hit Chen Yuxin.
Lieutenant General Jiang Lin saw the Long Family Army's arrows passing over the heavy cavalry and landing in the crossbow camp on horseback. He was shocked and said: "What kind of bow can shoot so far?"
The crossbows of the Red Flame Army all come from Linglong Pavilion, and they are the crossbows with the longest range in the world.
Now being suppressed by the Long Family Army's crossbows, Jiang Lin felt incredible.
Also shocked was Jing Tianlie, who watched the crossbowman being shot to death on the general platform, but was helpless.
"The Empress didn't give me the best equipment..."
Jing Tianlie thought that Linglong Pavilion gave the best equipment to Long Chen, but he didn't know that Long Chen designed and built it himself.
After the random shooting, the Red Flame Army's crossbow battalion retreated, and the heavy cavalry were crowded together, unable to move at all.
Seeing that the time had come, Long Chen changed his hand to a black flag and pointed forward. Wu Chuchu raised his sword and shouted: "Pikemen, attack!"
Wu Chuchu was the first to rush forward, followed by the spearmen behind him, followed by Pu Dao soldiers.
Lu Gan had just dodged the indiscriminate shots from Fangzi's crossbow and divine arm bow when he saw Wu Chuchu rushing over.
"Smelly bitch!"
Lu Gan sat down and his horse fell to the ground. He simply abandoned the horse and came to kill Wu Chuchu with a spear.
Wu Chuchu didn't know Lu Gan, but he could tell from his armor that this man was a heavy cavalry general, so he came to kill him first.
The spear stabbed him. Wu Chuchu turned to one side to avoid the spear, then squatted down instantly and slashed towards Lu Gan's ankle with the sword.
Lu Gan was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated, and Wu Chuchu chased after him.
The heavy armor was very heavy, which hindered Lu Gan's movement. He was not as flexible as Wu Chuchu, so he was killed very passively.
The pikemen stabbed randomly, and the swordsmen came up to chop off the legs and legs of the heavy cavalry. The invincible heavy cavalry instantly collapsed.
Jing Tianlie stood on the general platform, his face ashen, the strongest heavy cavalry collapsed at the beginning of the battle.
After changing the flag, Jing Tianlie waved it a few times, and the infantry behind him moved forward to rescue the heavy cavalry.
The heavy cavalry is too bulky, and without the impact blessing of war horses, it is no match at all.
Long Chen's fighting style was too vicious, and he specifically aimed at the cavalry's legs and feet to chop.
The infantry of the Red Flame Army stepped forward. Long Chen changed a green flag. When Wu Jian saw the green flag waving, he immediately responded: "Cavalry Archers raid the formation!"
The cavalry archers immediately charged to the flanks of the Red Flame Army's infantry and fired randomly at the infantry. They did not seek accuracy, but only sought to have enough random arrows so that they could always hit.
After a wave of shooting, the front team returned, and the rear team followed up, and the cycle continued to harass and shoot randomly.
The infantry of the Red Flame Army were battered by random arrows and were unable to fully reinforce the heavy cavalry.
The infantry general was furious: "Kill these horse archers first!"
The general led the charge. When Wu Jian saw them charging towards them, he immediately retreated, keeping a distance from the infantry and only using his bow and arrows.
This is the key for cavalry to deal with infantry. They use the speed of the war horses to maneuver back and forth, always keeping a distance, and then kill them with arrows.
Jing Tianlie was furious when he saw the infantry general breaking away from his command and pursuing Wu Jian's cavalry without authorization.
It is common sense that infantry cannot catch up with cavalry, but the general is so stupid!
Wu Chuchu held a simple knife and entangled Lu Gan to fight. With the advantage of speed, he killed Lu Gan in a panic.
Dugu Jiali saw that Wu Chuchu couldn't take down Lu Gan for a while, so she secretly raised her bow and arrow and took aim behind the formation.
Wu Chuchu's sword struck the heavy armor, but Lu Gan remained unmoved and stabbed Wu Chuchu directly with his spear.
Lu Gan only needed to guard against being cut off at his ankles; he was not afraid of attacks anywhere else.
Wu Chuchu stepped back, turned around and cut off the ankle of a heavy cavalryman.
The heavy cavalryman let out a dull scream and immediately fell to the ground.
The armor is too heavy, and once the foot is injured, it will be useless.
Lu Gan was furious, grabbed his spear and rushed towards Wu Chuchu.
call out!
A very thick arrow suddenly shot from the side. Lu Gan was wearing a helmet and had poor hearing and vision. The arrow penetrated the soft armor of his neck and grazed his throat.
Lu Gan was startled and turned to look at Dugu Jiali in the distance. She had already bent her bow and arrowed again.
Fortunately, the soft armor blocked the arrow and caused the arrow's flight path to deviate, otherwise Lu Gan's throat would have been shot through.
"Chen Yuxin, you bastard, you are eating shit!"
Lu Gan was killed by the Long family army's crossbow camp. The sky was dark and the earth was dark. Chen Yuxin's crossbow camp didn't even let go of a single fart. Lu Gan was so angry that he flew into a rage.
