The first wave of the Jin army's counterattack began, it was a dense rain of arrows, and the crossbowmen battalion led by Li Donglai got a very simple order, shoot all the crossbow arrows in the quiver around them.

They hid behind the low wall, raised the repeater in their hands high, and with an order, five thousand repeaters bloomed like a death lotus blooming on the earth, and in the sound of whizzing through the air, waves of arrows poured out.

In order to ensure the impact of the Hun cavalry, they maintained a dense formation with each other, seeing the rain of arrows sprinkled down, the forwards took out their sleeve shields to protect the vital points on their bodies, and many crossbow arrows were blocked, and more of them hit the cavalry and war horses, and in the screams, rows of men and horses fell to the ground with arrows, and then were trampled into flesh by the cavalry behind.

This loss was acceptable in a cavalry charge, the Hun cavalry continued to approach at high speed, and according to past experience, it would take time for the opposing archers to draw their bows again, and they could use this point in time to close the range of their own short bows, and by that time......

However, the Hun cavalry miscalculated a little, and the opposite side was not bows and arrows, but crossbows.

After Zhang Xiaoming's transformation, the crossbows of the bow battalion can be fired at an interval of 2 seconds, and Li Donglai divided his crossbowmen into five waves, each wave, a thousand people, and fired in turn, leaving enough time for reloading.

I saw that the sky was full of arrows and rain endlessly, and the head of the head shot down at the Hun cavalry, the Huns gritted their teeth and insisted, and continued to rush forward, but the closer they got to the greater the casualties.

At the beginning, just a few dozen people fell from their horses, and hundreds of people fell down screaming in the back, and the former army commander, Wang Shizi Liu He found that something was wrong, and hurriedly retreated, and found that he had lost thousands, and he couldn't even touch the opponent's first low wall.

Li Donglai's crossbow array was like a hedgehog, which made the attacking Hun cavalry suffer a small loss, but the record was just like that, Zhang Xiaoming almost emptied the one million crossbow arrows produced in a few months of inventory in exchange for nearly 10,000 results, and then it was a hard-fought strength collision.

Liu Yuan learned that his eldest son lost the first battle, and did not get angry, after listening to Jin Zhun's suggestion, he pushed the trebuchet up, and the Hun cavalry took advantage of the trebuchet to cover, charged again, and after a few rounds, they fell into the horse pit, stumbled horses, and the thistles were all cleared, and Zhuxian Town had been broken through, but the Jin army relied on the stronghold that had already been built, and was still defending to the death, fighting with the Hun cavalry who rushed in, and biting this strategic point of marching into Luoyang.

The sky was clear, the breeze was mild, the temperature was suitable, it was the good weather for the battle, the rapid war drums and melodious horns, mixed with the rumbling cannons, the soldiers of the brigade joined the war group one after another.

This is a battle with no technical content, it is nothing more than a desperate fight, Liu Yuan's Hun cavalry is numerous, the Jin army is strong-willed, tens of thousands of people clash back and forth on the land of the Central Plains, the sound of killing is shocking, several battles down, each other has won and lost.

However, the number of Jin troops was getting smaller and smaller, but the Xiongnu and Han armies were increasing, because the lagging foot soldiers kept keeping up.

At night, on the wilderness, a ghost cries wolf, the wounded soldiers come out to wail, the wild wolves hiding in the forest come out to forage for food, on the battlefield, there are corpses and dying wounded soldiers everywhere, both sides are red-eyed, and even the normal collection of corpses and rescue of the wounded is no longer carried out, and the corpse collection team of the other party has to take a shower of rockets to douse it.

The position of the Jin army is getting smaller and smaller, as if the wounded beast is shrinking into a ball and licking the wound, although he is seriously injured, but he still has sharp claws, not able to swallow in one bite, the Hun army is not busy collecting the net, but slowly squeezing the space of the Jin army, pressing step by step, since ancient times, the city must defend the field, the stubborn resistance of the Jin army, so that Liu Yuan is more convinced that Luoyang City is empty, because on the contrary, he is not in a hurry, and is determined to eat the Jin army completely.

Although Zhu Xianzhen was surrounded by the Huns on all sides, like an iron bucket, Liu Kun in the encirclement was not anxious at all, he unconditionally believed in Yang Pingfan, and Yang Pingfan asked him to wait, and wait for Liu Yuan's army to gather more, more.

The follow-up foot soldiers of the Xiongnu finally followed, nearly 300,000 people, surrounded Zhu Xianzhen, Liu Yuan smiled, and Yang Pingfan also smiled.

Shi Hu took 10,000 cavalry of the Qian tribe and left Luoyang ahead of schedule and made a detour to Qingzhou, preparing to raid Zhao Di and rescue his remaining clansmen, but he didn't want to bump into his old enemy head-on halfway.

There were two Sima family emperors in the Central Plains, and immediately went to war, according to Qingzhou, Murong Hao, who actually controlled the fiefdom of Qi State, has been watching coldly, and did not show his attitude on the surface, but secretly sent Murong Chui to the north to instigate the Xianbei people who were stranded in Yandi to revolt, Liu Yuan hurriedly went south, Yandi's troops were empty, and the Yandi that had just occupied fell into the hands of Murong in an instant.

After mastering Qi and Yan Di, Murong Hao quickly recruited troops from the Xianbei tribe to develop his own strength, and at the same time learned from Liu Yuan, cleared Sima Jian's power, and completely overthrew Sima Chao, he was like a tiger crouching in the dark, waiting for the best opportunity.

It was in this situation that Liu Yuan's envoy arrived and asked him to hunt the Central Plains together and attack Luoyang.

Murong Hao was very hesitant, although he had the ambition to chase the Central Plains, but at present, his clan had just formed an army, and his training was not enough, and he could not raise food and grass in a short period of time, but the words of the envoy made him very jealous.

At present, the puppet emperor entrenched in Luoyang has the help of demons, and his strength has risen sharply, if this son sits firmly in the world, then Shi Hu under his command will definitely lead the Xianbei people to the catastrophe.

The so-called Sima Shu has the help of demons, Murong Hao is not worried, what can a few people do, but the Qianren make him very jealous, after all, the Xianbei people have a deep blood feud, and Shi Hu is cruel and easy to kill, if he really makes his master a ......

Son Murong Chong finally strengthened his determination, "Father, my sister was lost in the battle of Luoyang, and her life and death are uncertain at present, we have to find her." ”

The safety of his beloved daughter finally made Murong Hao make up his mind to send troops to respond to Liu Yuan and attack Sima Shu.

In this way, Murong Hao was determined to attack Luoyang from the east, but he didn't think that as soon as he went out, he happened to collide with the Qian army that was hurrying north.

——

Yang Pingfan led five thousand black cavalry, and after regrouping, he stayed where he was and waited, just when Liu Cong was inexplicable, the black cavalry began to move again, and once again charged Liu Cong's remaining Hun cavalry.

This made Liu Cong feel angry, the Hun cavalry was the first in the world, but today it was eaten by the Han people in the same number of 5,000 people, if this was transmitted back to Liu Yuan's ears, he would not have to be the right virtuous king.

Therefore, Liu Cong issued an order to change the pattern of the Central Plains, gather the remaining cavalry, hedge with the black cavalry of the Jin army, and be sure to annihilate the opponent.

But he didn't seem to think about a question, what was the Jin Army Black Rider waiting for just now?

Five thousand against fifteen, the Hun cavalry divided one wing from the left and right sides, and outflanked the Jin army, but the Jin army was not chaotic at all, still moving forward, seeing that the two armies were about to collide head-on, "Next, the two wings are outflanked, completely cutting off your back road." ”

Liu Cong thought proudly, but out of the corner of his eye, he found that behind the Jin army, a puff of white smoke rose at some point.

The terrible whistling sound of the cannonballs was inconspicuous on the battlefield of thousands of galloping horses, and it was not until the shells fell that the people who were hit really realized its terrifying destructive power.

Hundreds of high-speed solid shells crashed into the densely arranged Hun cavalry like meteors, and suddenly set off a bloody rain, the hit burst like a water bag on the spot, red, white, and green splashed out dozens of meters away, and the individual empty shells fell to the ground, and bounced high, smashing people off their horses, and the casualties caused by hundreds of solid cannonballs were not very large, but they caused a commotion among the Hun cavalry, after all, no one had ever seen this kind of cross-era weapon.

But the situation no longer allowed Liu Cong to consider, the two armies collided head-on, Liu Cong looked at the other party in his hand not a sword and mace, but a black pipe, and couldn't help grinning, "The Jin army is crazy to take a burning stick?"

In the next second, he knew that this burning stick would breathe fire!

Because Yang Pingfan used thunderous means to eat all of Wang Mi's 5,000 people, no one slipped through the net, and no one came back to tell Liu Cong what means the other party used, and the asymmetry of information made some things seem impossible, but they inevitably appeared.

For example, less is more.

Next, it is a spectacular scene, in a burst of deafening gunfire, the Hun cavalry like wild ducks, falling from the horse in a row, dense formation, so that the black horsemen do not even need to aim, raise the gun and hit the head, the fire gun spews out the tongue of fire and the deafening gunshot, so that the Huns have not been trained in this area of the war horses frightened, scurrying around, even more aggravated the chaos.

The black cavalry that charged at high speed, at most, finished fighting the three firearms inserted in his chest, and did not have time to take out the repeater, he had already collided with the Hun cavalry, and then, it was time to really compete face-to-face with hard power.

With the shouts of the ten-captain, the black horsemen drew their sabers one after another, raised them high, and pointed their knives at the sky.

Whew!

Countless standard long knives were held high like a forest, and the dragon's chant pierced the sky.

Yang Pingfan's horse lance was raised diagonally, the tip of the spear pointed directly at Liu Cong's handsome flag, and a thunderous roar burst out from his chest, "Six Yi inside and outside, those who dare to call soldiers and hold the staff, behead!"

A Hun cavalry fell off the horse, the red blood dyed red in front of his eyes, but his heart was unwilling, as an elite horse warrior, just now, he rushed from the flank at high speed, a knife to the opponent's main general's chain mail, the head of the army once said, the chain mail stabbing is not anti-splitting, but he went down, the other party's chain mail left only a white mark, and then the owner of the chain mail turned around, a knife to cut down, cut off the knife that blocked him, and split himself off the horse.

The Jin army of five thousand black cavalry, with fire guns and horse-drawn cannons, the Hun cavalry of more than 10,000 people pierced, the two wings of the Huns just completed the outflanking, the Chinese army has been broken through, Niu Yi followed behind Yang Pingfan, with the Jin army turned his head and began to outflank, ready to eat the two wings of the enemy, Yang Pingfan galloped on horseback, straight to Liu Cong's handsome banner.
