"Kill!" With a shout, Fu led the archers to rush out of the camp and counterattack towards the torrent of the Wei army.

At the same time as the archers attacked, the lancers also followed, the war horses of the Shu army raised bursts of dust and smoke, the archers were in the center, the lancers were on the left and right, lined up in an almost straight line, like the tide rising between the flats, and the momentum was like a rainbow.

The timing chosen by Liu Yin was when the two sides were two arrows away, the war horses of the two sides were galloping at high speed, and the distance between them was only a matter of more than a dozen breaths, but in a moment, the vanguard of the Wei cavalry had entered the range of the Shu army's archers.

At the time of the attack, the archers were already ready to shoot with their bows and arrows, and once the Wei army entered the firing range, the archers in the first row immediately raised their longbows slightly and fired arrows.

The first row of archers could shoot flat or at a low elevation angle, while those in the second or third row or further back of the row could not wait for the front archers to give up the gap, and they fired at an angle of 45 degrees.

Naturally, the projectile at this angle could not pursue the accuracy of shooting, but thousands of arrows were fired at the same time, just like the scattered flowers of the heavenly maidens, all over the sky, intertwined into an arrow net, and shrouded towards the Wei cavalry battle array.

Countless arrows fell from the sky, which surprised the unprepared Wei army, and before they could react, the arrow shadows fell, and with a miserable scream, the Wei soldiers who were hit by the arrows fell from their horses one after another.

In the torrent of iron horses, falling off the horse is a very terrible thing, whether it has been shot by an arrow or only slightly injured, once the horse falls, it may turn into meat under the iron hooves, and many Wei soldiers who have not died by arrows have just fallen to the ground. was ruthlessly trampled by the war horses behind, and a terrible cry was annihilated in the rumbling sound of the horse's hooves.

Tang Bin's face changed suddenly, riding and archery is one of the most difficult skills to master, on the back of a high-speed galloping horse, the rider must firmly grasp the reins with one hand to maintain the balance of the body. So that you don't fall off the horse. Therefore, when the cavalry gallops on the war horse, the weapon chosen can only be a one-handed weapon, although all the cavalry are equipped with bows and arrows, but when using the bow and arrow, the war horse must stop or slow down, unless it is the kind of rider with strong body, waist and legs, it is possible to carry out riding and shooting on the back of a high-speed galloping horse.

To be precise, the Wei army's archers could not be called archers, at best they were only archers on horseback. Therefore, the weapon of choice for the Wei cavalry attack was the one-handed bayonet spear, a weapon that was slightly shorter than the spear used by the infantry.

Tang Bin never expected that the Shu army would be so good at cavalry and archery, and as soon as he shot, he was thousands of archers. The rain of arrows in the sky made him suddenly feel dazed.

How is this possible? When did the Shu army have such a powerful cavalry, you must know that among the cavalry of the Wei army, the archers who can ride and shoot are almost one in a hundred, and the archers and horsemen owned by the Shu army are simply appalling, Tang Bin can't figure out how the Shu army has "superpowers" anyway.

The distance of a stone's throw is very short, and in the process of approaching at high speed of the war horses of the two sides, it is at most a dozen breaths. But most of the well-trained archers could shoot three arrows, and even a few quick riders could shoot four arrows.

The Shu army archers sat on the saddle of the high bridge. Stepping on the bilateral horses, let the war horse run at high speed, and the body is as stable as a mountain. They skillfully drew their bows and arrows, and threw them at an angle of forty-five degrees, and before the arrow could hit the target, the second arrow was already on the bowstring. Pulling the bowstring again, the feather arrow "swished" and flew out again.

As the war horse moved forward, the distance between the two sides became closer and closer, and at such a short distance, the sharpness of the arrow could be more reflected. Arrows fell from the sky, mercilessly harvesting the lives of the Wei cavalry.

The rain of arrows in the sky is by no means a beautiful scenery, but a soul-chasing rain. Many Wei soldiers are not equipped with shields, because they hold shields in their left hands and guns in their right hands, which will affect the control of war horses, and without the protection of shields, these cavalry are simply unable to resist the attacks of the opponent's bows and arrows.

Under the dense rain of arrows, the cavalry of the Wei army, which served as the first echelon of the attack, was almost devastated, and it was not only people who were hit by the arrows, but also many war horses were shot by the rain of arrows.

Tang Bin's eyes were split, the cavalry that served as the vanguard was his descendant troops, and it was the most elite force among the cavalry, originally Tang Bin was ready to use this elite division to break down the defense line of the Shu army, but he couldn't have imagined that he would die before leaving the division, and this group of elite cavalry did not even rush to the front of the enemy's formation, and they were almost all gone.

Tang Bin couldn't help but feel heartache, these damned archers of the Shu army were able to master such a strong skill, so that they had suffered such heavy losses.

However, Tang Bin was not too frustrated, although the forward cavalry suffered heavy losses, but compared to the entire Wei cavalry, this loss was insignificant, after all, 20,000 elite cavalry, how could the Shu army be wiped out with thousands of bows and arrows. No matter how powerful the archers of the Shu army are, they are only within the range of a stone's throw away, as long as the Wei army can survive these ten breaths, the two sides will enter a state of melee, and no matter how powerful the archers are, there will be no use.

Under the blow of the dense rain of arrows like flying locusts, there are always some fish that slip through the net, but these lucky riders who are not dead have long lost the pride of the first time on the battlefield, and they are all timid, and the archers of the Shu people are too powerful. If it was on another battlefield, maybe these Wei soldiers would have turned around and fled, but in such a cavalry battlefield, even if they wanted to retreat, they had no way to retreat, and the large brigade of the Wei cavalry behind them swarmed up, coercing them to move forward, and there was no other way.

The forward cavalry of the Wei army, which was tortured by the rain of arrows, rushed forward involuntarily, seeing that the Shu army was getting closer and closer, as long as the two sides entered the short battle, the archers were no longer a threat.

So the Wei cavalry moved forward one by one, as if the only way to escape was to advance, but they did not know that what awaited them was an even greater nightmare. (To be continued.) )
