The huge shouts of killing were like waves of sound, sweeping through the eardrums of the Xianbei cavalry.
The Xianbei cavalry at the front felt the murderous intent of the Changshan Army, and they were all horrified.
Along the way, the Han people they encountered either fled in a hurry or died weak and incompetent under their own sabers. Never had they seen such a tyrannical army.
"Don't be afraid, these are not people at all, they are just walking food, rush over, rush over."
Humor was extremely calm. Although his strength was damaged, the main force was still there. Facing 10,000 Han infantry, he had nothing to fear.
"Kill~"
Under the command of Humor, the Xianbei cavalry began to charge. From the sky, it looked like a row of waves, rushing towards the Changshan army.
"God Arm Crossbow, attack~"
Tian Feng watched the Xianbei army attack. As soon as he waved his flag, he heard a series of crashing sounds, and a hundred divine arm crossbow arrows rushed out like locusts.
Puff puff puff puff.
A series of arrows sounded, and the arrows of the cone-shaped charge were obviously smoothed. Seventy or eighty Xianbei cavalry fell off their horses and fell to death on the ground.
"Hiss~"
This is still nearly 400 steps away. Even the strongest archer in his tribe has a range of less than 200 steps. This is too terrifying.
Although the range and power of military crossbows exceed those of bows and arrows, they have a fatal flaw, that is, the stringing speed is much slower than that of bows and arrows. The divine arm crossbow is also slower than ordinary infantry crossbows.
Based on these problems, Yuan Shu deliberately imitated the Western matchlock formation and adapted the crossbow army, changing the salvo fire to a round fire. In this way, the single output will be insufficient, but it can avoid waste and continuously attack the enemy with firepower.
.
After the first round, the divine arm crossbow shot out again in the second round, and after the second round came the third and fourth rounds.
After all, there were too few divine arm crossbows, only five hundred. If there were two thousand divine arm crossbows, the Xianbei people would have been shot to pieces before they even got in front of them.
"Crossbow, shoot~"
Seeing that the Xianbei people entered the 200-meter shooting range, Tian Feng waved the battle flag again, and fired 500 ordinary military crossbows and 100 divine arm crossbows at the same time. The 600 crossbow arrows were like a shady curtain, directly hitting the front Xianbei cavalry.
It fell to the ground and more than 200 Xianbei knights died on the spot.
After the first round, another 600 crossbow arrows attacked again. The cavalry rushing from behind did not react, so they were shot under the horse again. The most terrifying thing was the divine arm crossbow. The closer the distance, the more powerful it was. Sometimes
It can even shoot through three Xianbei cavalry in a row.
Seeing his subordinates being shot to death one by one, Humor's heart was bleeding. Although his own cavalry were lined up in the formation, they were all his own clan and descendants of Xianbei.
In fact, the Xianbei cavalry charged very quickly, from 400 meters to 100 meters in just a few minutes, but more than a thousand Xianbei cavalry fell forever, and the cavalry in his hands also went from more than 7,000 to 100 meters.
It has now become more than 5,000 riders.
"Bow and arrow~"
Humor roared, stood up suddenly, bent his bow and set an arrow, and shot a wolf tooth arrow at the Han army's main formation. Following Humor's more than 5,000 Xianbei cavalry, they bent their bows together, and countless bows and arrows turned into a dark cloud, heading towards
Changshan County covered him.
"Shield~"
Tian Feng waved the battle flag again, and the two thousand armored soldiers in the front row all straightened up their shields. At the same time, the light infantry behind them also raised their round shields above their heads.
The shields turned into a shield wall, protecting the Changshan army below from bows and arrows. Although a few people were still injured by stray arrows, these were only small fragments and innocuous.
The crossbow troops continued to fire, and the Xianbei cavalry rushed closer and closer.
"Crossbow volley~"
Seeing that the Xianbei cavalry had already rushed fifty meters away, Tian Feng gave up on taking turns and directly chose to fire a volley.
More than two thousand crossbow arrows were like a black city wall, and the Xianbei cavalry that hit it fell to the ground like sand.
Of the three hundred cavalry, more than three hundred Xianbei cavalry were killed in this salvo alone, and their front arrows were completely flattened.
"My sons, it's time for your scimitars to be stained with blood. Let these humble Han people welcome the anger from the grassland~"
Humor had no time to feel heartbroken. The only thing he had to do now was to charge, charge, and charge again.
The distance of fifty steps was no more than the blink of an eye for the cavalry. The Xianbei cavalry took out their scimitars one after another, and with bloodthirsty smiles, they accelerated and rushed past the shield wall of Changshan County.
"Kill~"
The two thousand soldiers put their shields on the ground and drew out the long steel spears behind them.
Steel guns and shields turned the Changshan military formation into a giant steel hedgehog.
"Thumping, beating, beating~"
A Xianbei cavalryman collided with the steel shield of a heavily armored warrior and was instantly turned into flesh. Some were stabbed into blood gourds by spears and were sobbing on top.
"How is this going?"
Wu Moer was living in the grassland. Although he occasionally came to the Han Dynasty to fight in the autumn wind, this was his first time to fight against the Han heavy armored infantry.
Looking at the enemy who looked like a steel city wall, he had doubts about his sons for the first time.
"Keep on charging~"
If placed on the grassland, he would definitely choose to escape immediately, but if he retreats now, he will only be driven into Panshe Ridge by the enemy.
Once he entered Panshe Ridge, it would be the same as death. Instead of doing this, he might as well continue charging. He didn't believe that these iron cans could really stop his invincible prairie knights.
The Xianbei cavalry charged again, facing the Great Steel Wall, and slammed into it with their own flesh and blood.
The Xianbei cavalry had a very powerful impact. Although the charging distance and formation greatly restricted their impact, the number of Yuan Shu's heavy armored infantry was greatly insufficient.
If there were 5,000 heavy armored infantry and these Xianbei cavalry, they would not be able to get through even if they were hit to death. However, now there are several places that have been hit and their shape has been changed. If they charge down, they will be broken through.
"My lord, this can't be done."
Feeling the madness of the Xianbei cavalry and seeing the loopholes in the heavy armored infantry formation, Yan Liang couldn't help but frown.
Yuan Shu is also anxious, but now he has no choice but to see who collapses first.
If I had known this was the case, I should have given up on the Xianbei people on the other side of the mountain and moved Zhao Yun's cavalry here. As the saying goes, it is better to cut off one of his ten fingers than to hurt him. This is what Mao Zedong used to do, but he has to play with it.
Total annihilation.
"My lord, don't panic, let's watch Wen Chou kill that Xianbei man for you~"
Sensing Yuan Shu's worry, Wen Chou shouted loudly, held a steel gun in his hand, turned into a black whirlwind and rushed towards the battlefield.
"Wen Chou is not allowed~ Yan Liang quickly go and help him~"
Seeing Yuan Shu riding alone into the formation, Yuan Shu was shocked. This was such a chaotic battle. He didn't believe in the idea of ​​decapitating a general among thousands of troops. If Wen Chou was killed here, he would have lost his capital.
.
"No~"
Yan Liang galloped out, followed closely by Wen Chou.
