【Chapter 962】 Kill the wolf, the thunderbolt is frightened

More than 100 steps in front of the Chinese army Shuaitai, he rode his horse and waved his sword, leading the Wuhuan Iron Cavalry to kill the generals violently. He originally thought that Li Li, who was dressed in red robes and gold armor, would inevitably lead the army to fight head-on, but he didn't expect that Li Li had no intention of facing the battle at all, but instead turned his horse's head and led the Jin Qiwei Iron Cavalry to retreat to both sides of the Shuai Tai, and even Zhuge Liang came down from the Shuai Tai and retreated into the Jin Qi Guard.

Seeing that Li Li avoided fighting instead of fighting, he was not discouraged, but had a stronger fighting spirit and was overjoyed. In his opinion, Li Li, as the commander of the Han army, is so passive and avoids the war, which is undoubtedly a catastrophe for the Han army, and it is an unexpected joy for the Wuhuan and Xianbei coalition forces under his command.

Instead of being angry, he showed a grim smile, jumped on his horse and raised his sword, and shouted loudly to the Wuhuan cavalry behind him: "Warriors, Li Li'er retreats without fighting, my Wuhuan warriors will win!" Rush with me and kill all the Han dogs! Kill! In the midst of the loud shouts, he took the lead and rushed majestically towards the Chinese army commander.

Just as Badun led tens of thousands of Wuhuan iron cavalry to rush straight to the Chinese army, the last group of Jinyi Guard cavalry blocking the rear of Shuaitai quickly retreated to both sides, thus completely vacating the open space in front of them, and all the Chinese soldiers retreated to both sides of Shuaitai, reforming the defensive formation on the original positions on the left and right flanks.

The Golden Guardian Warrior Rider left on its front foot, and hundreds of giant crossbows were immediately exposed in front of the Wuhuan Iron Rider, less than a hundred steps apart between the two, and the distance was still shrinking rapidly.

At this moment, without waiting for the Bunton and Wuhuan Iron Rider to react. The flag-bearer who was standing in the middle of the crossbow array shouted: "The crossbow is ready, ten rounds of fire." First row, ready to ?????? Put! "The flag waved. The two hundred crossbows of the first row, which had long been ready to go, fired their arrows in response, and the machine slammed loudly, and the ballista shook violently.

"Bang, bang, bang!" There was a loud roar, but I saw a huge crossbow arrow as thick as an arm on the ballista and eight feet long suddenly flew out, and the huge anti-shock force caused the ballista to shake violently and "clang".

Suddenly, the scene presented in the eyes of the soldiers of the Han army was: with the ten strong men behind each crossbow pulling together. The rod shot out like a thick "spear"; The moment it broke away from the crossbows, each crossbow emitted a crossbow arrow, but by the time the bolt flew twenty or thirty paces away. But it suddenly exploded, split into ten, and instantly turned into ten thumb-thick and eight-foot-long ultra-long feathered arrows, which swept away. Cut off the airflow. Rushing straight towards the on-demand Wuhuan Iron Rider, roared away.

"Ahh Crossbow ?????? Get out of the way! "The thunderbolt was startled, and the first horse saw rows of giant ballistas suddenly appear, and sprayed a terrifying cold light. Suddenly, his expression changed dramatically, and he instinctively shouted, and immediately jumped off his horse and smashed sideways on the ground full of stones.

The moment he landed, he watched as thousands of spear-like crossbow arrows (actually feathered arrows) swept overhead. One of the bolts roared straight at his mount, the Black Horse, which was fortunate to be spiritual. When danger came, he fell to the ground sideways, and he was able to avoid the killing of the crossbow arrows. Even so, there was still a hole more than two feet long left on the side back of the black horse, but the crossbow arrow that flew past the side back of the black horse had no effect, it was still strong and domineering, roaring away.

"Woo hoo ??????? Yes! ”

In the flash of lightning, the two thousand giant feathered arrows that shot straight out went straight through the body of the Wuhuan cavalry or the body of the war horse that was blocking the way with a lightning speed that was difficult to find with the naked eye. In addition to the giant feather arrows that killed the war horse in an instant, the remaining arrows pierced the body of the Wuhuan cavalry and did not reduce their remaining strength, and then pierced the body of a Wuhuan cavalryman again, but it still did not fall, and it was still undiminished, full of power, and continued to kill one Wuhuan cavalry after another. At this moment, the giant feather arrows were moving forward, and no obstacle could stop them from ravaging the sky. Wherever the arrows passed, there were no men or animals.

These giant feather arrows are all shot out of crossbows with a range of six or seven hundred paces, and their range and strength are far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Even in the opinion of the well-informed Li Li, the power of these crossbow arrows is not inferior to the sniper rifles of later generations, and even the power within the range is far greater than that of sniper rifles, and their lethality is by no means comparable to that of a bullet. Just imagine, a bullet can never disembowel a war horse and kill it with a single blow, but a crossbow arrow can. A war horse with a huge body is still like this, let alone a human with a flesh and blood body?

Seeing the crossbow arrows raging across the country, instantly harvesting the lives of the warriors of the Wuhuan tribe, in just the blink of an eye, no less than a thousand soldiers were killed by the crossbow arrows in seconds, and the killing continued, and nearly half of the two thousand crossbow arrows were still killing frantically. At this moment, the face of the prostrate man on the ground was pale, his eyes were torn, and his heart was in pain, and a pair of fists smashed heavily into the stones, and his flesh and blood were blurred, but he didn't feel the pain, and his heart was filled with endless horror and anger.

Just as he was trying to get up with his eyes full of fire, and rushed to the crossbow array of the Han army to smash the killing devils, the second round of crossbow arrows suddenly rose. In an instant, he was so frightened that he was silent, curled up on the ground and did not dare to move, for fear that he would lose his life as soon as he raised his head.

The second round of crossbow arrows was still a huge group of feathered arrows, which flew for a distance and then suddenly dispersed, also divided into tens, and ran rampantly. The only difference from the first round of arrows is that this round of crossbow arrows is thrown into the air, but the arc of the projectile is not large, but it is enough to kill the Wuhuan Iron Cavalry three hundred steps away.

Just as the second round of crossbow arrows roared into the air, the impact of the first round of crossbow arrows was nearing its end. By the time the last giant feather arrow completed its mission, the first batch of more than 5,000 Wuhuan iron cavalry that followed the direct attack on the commander of the middle army had already killed and injured most of them, at least 2,000 people died under the giant feather arrow, in addition, there were more than 1,000 Wuhuan cavalry who were shot or trampled to death by the war horse. The remaining more than 1,000 Wuhuan cavalry were in a chaotic formation that was collided by frightened war horses, and there were not a few people who collided with each other and trampled to death. Therefore, just one round of crossbow arrows killed more than 5,000 Wuhuan iron horsemen with heavy casualties and collapsed the army.

However. It's just a kick in the face, and the real killing is still to come, and it's still ongoing. But. The first round of crossbow arrows was undoubtedly the most powerful, and its results were also the most brilliant.

The second round of crossbow arrows killed less than 2,000 Wuhuan cavalry, the third round of battle was only more than 1,000 people, and the fourth round was nearly 1,000 people??????

After the 6,000 giant feathered arrows were exhausted, the Wuhuan Iron Cavalry led by Bunton paid the price of at least tens of thousands of casualties. However, less than 7,000 of these people actually died under the crossbow arrows, but no less than 5,000 Wuhuan cavalrymen were trampled to death by their horses or injured by being knocked over and falling off their horses. The casualties are almost equal to the lethality of the crossbow arrows. The only difference between the two is that those who are shot by crossbow arrows are certain to die, while the Wuhuan cavalry who is knocked over and trampled on is either dead or maimed. There are still some survivors. It's just that it is unknown whether these injured Wuhuan soldiers will be able to leave the battlefield alive in the end.

However, the crossbow strike was not over, and there was the strongest attack of five hundred crossbows next. A true devastating crossbow attack.

"Bang bang" loud noise. Huge crossbow arrows roared into the air, drawing perfect arcs in the sky, and then roared into the dense black iron horses.

"Ahh??????h The loud sounds of fighting and the neighing of the horses still could not hide the terrible screams, and the once boastful Wuhuan warriors and the bravest tribes under the sun were no different from ordinary people in the face of death, and they were still screaming in pain. The terrible and sharp scream soared into the sky, shaking the Lulongsai Pass with a roar, echoing for a long time.

How lethal are these 500 real crossbow arrows? Le Ma stopped to watch the battle on the left side of the platform, and Li Li and Zhuge Liang didn't know either. I saw that the crossbow bolt five hundred steps away fell from the place, and there was a blank space in the wilderness within a radius of more than a hundred steps. Except for the corpses and the wreckage of war horses everywhere, there was not a single person or war horse alive. Destroying and decaying, I think this is the scene.

The power of the crossbow was so big that it really opened Li Li's eyes, and after a long period of knowledge, he was extremely shocked in his heart, and even a little afraid.

To this day, the crossbow is not a new weapon, and the princes of each town have more or less crossbows in their hands, but they are all used to defend the city, and rarely use the crossbow on the frontal battlefield. In other words, even if the crossbow is pulled into the battlefield, it is only used as an auxiliary means of attack, and the number is not large, generally not more than two hundred, and they are all made of relatively inferior iron weapons, so the accuracy is very poor, and the power is not great. However, today, Zhuge Liang broke the convention and used relatively poor materials to make crossbow cars, but the requirements for crossbow arrows were extremely high, so that thousands of craftsmen worked day and night to build crossbow arrows, and there were only 500 crossbow arrows in a month. At the same time, Zhuge Liang had a whimsical idea to design a giant feather arrow, and then replaced the crossbow arrow with a giant feather arrow, not requiring the feather arrow to reach an ultra-long range of more than 500 meters, but only asking the feather arrow launched by the ballista to have the impact and lethality of the crossbow arrow.

Facts are better than a qiē, and it is clear that Zhuge Liang succeeded. He revolutionized the attack method of the crossbow, pulled the crossbow to the battlefield of the head-on battle, and burst out with a huge power that shocked the world, and the battle was fruitful.

In fact, the deterrent effect of the crossbow is far greater than the actual lethality. The Wuhuan Iron Cavalry led by Gatun was not defeated by the crossbow, but was frightened by the huge lethality displayed by the crossbow, so that they collided and trampled on each other, causing huge unnecessary casualties.

The weapon is still the same weapon it used to be, but it can burst into unprecedented power in the hands of someone who is good at using it. In the final analysis, it's not that the weapon is powerful, the weapon is a dead thing after all, and the real power is the person who uses it. At this moment, Li Li secretly congratulated himself that it was too wise to keep Zhuge Liang by his side as soon as possible, otherwise one day these crossbows or newer weapons would fall on his head, and it would be a big deal!
