Looking at the appearance of the foreign coalition forces, it is obvious that they are not uniform. Such a team wants to defeat itself and is delusional.
"First ascend the camp and prepare the crossbows, the crossbow chariots form a formation, the eagles raise the army, and the Xihe cavalry flies to the left and right."
Yuan Shu's army gave an order, and the slowly advancing army paused instantly. The troops who came first to unload their crossbows, loaded their crossbows with arrows, and formed a strong formation of crossbow chariots behind them.
Yingyang Military Academy Lieutenant Yuan Yu and Xihe Cavalry Colonel Zhang Kang led 17,000 cavalry on both wings and flew towards the two wings of the alien coalition.
The cavalry moved very quickly, and the distance of one mile passed in the blink of an eye. When they entered the range of 500 meters, the crossbows that attacked first let out an angry roar.
"Warrior's crossbow, release."
Following Ju Yi's order, the warrior who had already prepared his crossbow did not hesitate and chose to fire it at the same time.
The two-meter-long crossbow arrows were like bolts of lightning, shooting straight away the Xianbei cavalry in front of them, including their men and their horses.
This warrior's crossbow immediately scared the nest. It could shoot people and horses away from a distance of 500 meters. What the hell is this?
"Speed up and rush over."
But now they had an arrow on the string and had to fire it. There was only a distance of 500 meters, so Nu Lili closed and opened his eyes and passed by.
"Four hundred steps."
"The crossbow is released."
Yuan Shu's visit this time was hemorrhaging a lot of money. Not only did he bring over all the latest repeating crossbows and martial arts crossbows, but even the giant slugs originally intended to be used to defend the city were transformed into crossbow carts and brought to the front line.
Another row of short spear-like arrows rose into the sky and hit the Xianbei cavalry.
A crossbow arrow flew past Wo Sheihe's ear, nailing the soldier beside him to the ground.
"Come on, rush to death for me."
With extreme fear, he gritted his teeth and ordered to continue charging.
"Three hundred steps."
"Cring the crossbow."
"Two hundred steps, launch the crossbow."
Hesitating that the repeated crossbow was a powerful weapon, Ju Yi also gave up the three-stage shooting method used by the Jizhou Army, and instead chose to release all the infantry crossbows at once.
At this moment, more than two thousand crossbow arrows poured directly into the Xianbei cavalry group like a flash flood.
"Avoid arrows, avoid arrows."
They greet the Han people all year round, and they also have their own methods of dealing with these crossbows.
Each Xianbei cavalry either leaned sideways or hid in their stirrups, trying their best to hide themselves where the crossbows could not reach.
In an instant, people were on their backs, and even if the Xianbei cavalry made evasive movements, they were still hit by crossbow arrows and fell off their horses.
"Fight back, fight back."
After two hundred steps, it was time for them to counterattack. With the help of Ma Jin, their hunting bows, although not as far as the Han Dynasty's bows and arrows, were still able to reach their opponents first.
"defense."
Seeing the Xianbei people's bows and arrows attacking, Ju Yi directly called for defense.
The round shields were raised one after another, like a shield wall, completely covering the heads of the first troops.
"Archer, shoot."
After a while of clanging, Ju Yi directly ordered a counterattack.
Rows of bows and arrows soared into the sky, falling like raindrops into the Xianbei people.
"Avoid the arrow, avoid the arrow again."
After dodging this wave of arrows, the crossbow was cocked again. Then it burst out like a flash flood.
"Avoid arrows."
Wo Shenhe had never fought such a battle before. The enemy's long-range attacks never stopped starting from 500 meters away, and they would only mechanically repeat words to avoid arrows.
They were beaten all the way, and they were punched with fists as big as casseroles, each one bigger than the other. In just five hundred meters, more than three thousand cavalry fell on the charging road.
"One hundred steps, let's fire the crossbow."
Finally it’s time for the main event, a hundred steps away, the optimal attack range of the repeating crossbow.
Ju Yi gave an order, and 1,500 Yuan crossbows launched an attack at the same time. The trigger was pulled, and real arrows rained down.
"ah;"
"I was hit by an arrow."
"My eyes, my eyes."
The Xianbei cavalry were directly blindsided by the attack of the repeated crossbows. They had never encountered such strong long-range firepower. The continuous crossbow arrows were like a heavy rain without interruption.
Every Xianbei cavalryman who fell was shot by two or three arrows. The most unlucky guy was shot into a hornet's nest with his men and horses before he fell to the ground. It was really horrible to see.
One thousand five hundred repeating crossbows had the same effect as fifteen thousand infantry crossbows. A wall of corpses appeared in front of the Xianden army, a wall of corpses piled up by the corpses of Xianbei cavalry.
The huge casualties discouraged the fearless Xianbei cavalry on the grassland, and the original sprint speed also slowed down unconsciously.
The Xianbei cavalry were hesitant and would not give them a chance if they attacked first.
"The crossbow launches."
After a long period of reloading, the crossbow has been prepared, and now is the time.
The two-meter-long crossbow arrow turned into a battlefield scavenger, shooting directly through the wall of corpses, and then blasted the corpses of Xianbei cavalry into the charging cavalry crowd again.
"Avoid arrows."
Wo Sheihe transformed into a battlefield gramophone, repeating this word repeatedly and mechanically. It was not that he didn't want to say anything else, but that he had no chance to say it at all.
But it was not easy to avoid the arrows. The crossbow arrows were difficult to dodge in the first place, and now they were carrying Xianbei corpses, and the killing area was expanded several times. Each Xianbei cavalryman was smashed away before they could even dodge.
"Come on, come on, these Han people slaughtered my brothers and killed my siblings. If we don't avenge this, it will be hard for the people of Xianbei."
Wo Shenhe is now furious. His tribe was the first to cross the river, so it suffered the least loss, but it only had more than 10,000 riders. Now there are only more than 3,000 riders left from the 10,000 riders. How can he not take revenge on him?
Report.
Under the instigation of Wo's repulsion, the remaining Xianbei cavalry also had blood-red eyes. They were all of the same clan and race. These cavalrymen who died in the front were all brothers. How could one be a human being not to avenge such a blood feud.
Although the Xianbei cavalry was full of killing intent, reality taught these Xianbei barbarians a lesson, a lesson about paying tuition with their lives.
"Crossbow, release."
Ju Yi's command was not messy at all. After the crossbow was cocked, it was fired as soon as possible.
Countless crossbow arrows soared into the sky and turned into a wall of arrows, shooting countless Xianbei cavalry to death on the ground.
"Kill."
Wo Shenhe has gone crazy now. The enemy is so close that he can see it but cannot touch it. This feeling is too uncomfortable for him.
"Kill."
"Revenge, revenge."
"Fight to the death."
Each and every Xianbei cavalryman had red eyes and still charged selflessly.
"Continuous crossbow, shoot."
The repeating crossbow storm broke out again, and countless arrows soared into the sky and blasted into the Xianbei cavalry group. Unfortunately, this time Wo Shenhe was given special attention. A dozen repeating crossbows were specifically aimed at him, and hundreds of crossbow arrows directly hit him.
