The sharp arrows of the divine archers are still like the hands of death, endlessly attacking wild arrows. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The Huainan cavalry, which suffered heavy casualties, turned over on their backs, and the blood flowed like a river, and they were jammed forty steps in front of the shield array, and they could not advance a single step.

Or rather, they don't dare to take another half step.

The frightened knights of the Huainan Army just desperately danced the swords and guns in their hands, turning their horses back and resisting the rain of arrows on the other.

The archers of the Tao army seized every gap in them, and the sharp arrows shot mercilessly at every part of their bodies.

The screams of the soldiers and the howls of the war horses shook the sky, and the entire battlefield became the hell of Shura.

Ji Ling's whole person had been shot to the point that his soul was shattered, and he never dreamed that Li Guang, the dog thief, would actually command such a terrifying army and horses.

Five hundred bows, with five hundred bows alone, destroyed three thousand of his precious iron horsemen.

Just as Ji Ling was stunned and overwhelmed, an arrow burst through the air, tearing through his blade curtain defense and hitting him in the shoulder.

"Ahh

Rolling to the ground, Ji Ling's heart was broken, and he couldn't care about the pain in his shoulder, the cat got up and fled desperately towards the back.

Yuan Yao, who was in command, was stunned and discolored at this moment, and he was annoyed and angry.

Only then did he know why the potter was not afraid of him half-crossing, it turned out that people had long hidden such a sharpshooter, and his self-righteousness fell for the potter's tricks.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the enemy's crossbowmen are too powerful, we fell for his strategy, I'm afraid we won't be able to stop him from crossing the river, for today's plan, why don't you retreat to the camp first and then make plans?" Yang Hong, who was frightened, still maintained a little calm.

Yuan Yao was already annoyed and angry, he couldn't swallow this breath, and shouted angrily: "Even if the thief has a magic arrow army, this prince doesn't believe that he can stop my thousands of troops and horses, and orders the whole army to press me and crush Li Guang's dog thief." ”

Yang Hong's face changed, and he hurriedly said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the enemy's back to the Huai River is different from the ordinary military formation, even if our army is all dispatched, I am afraid that it will ......."

"Shut up!"

Yuan Yao snorted and interrupted Yang Hong's persuasion, "If that thief is allowed to easily cross the Huai River and return to the capital, where is the face of this prince, you don't need to say more, press my whole army." ”

Yuan Yao was carried away by anger, and even more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, he didn't listen to persuasion at all, and Yang Hong was reprimanded, and he was helpless.

Tom Tom -- In the Huainan Army, the sound of drums shook the sky again.

In the earth-shattering sound of killing, nearly 15,000 Huainan infantry troops all dispatched, and the black pressure was pressed from three directions, towards the 800 Divine Arrow Battalion.

Yuan Yao's momentum returned to arrogance, and he snorted coldly: "Pottery merchant, you little thief, even if you have a divine marksmanship, this prince doesn't believe it, you can resist the crushing of my 15,000 army with 800 crossbowmen." ”

……

North Shore.

The officers and men of the three armies stationed on the shore all witnessed the power of the Divine Arrow Battalion, and they all thundered with joy.

But then, they saw tens of thousands of enemy troops, rushing towards the 800 lone army like a tide, and all the soldiers saw this picture, their faces changed, and they sweated for their comrades on the other side.

"Lord, all the enemy troops have been dispatched, and we don't have time to cross the river to support, I'm afraid that Li Dumb will be kicked in the ass, and he won't be able to stop it." Fan Xu, who was excited and happy just now, became nervous now.

The potter smiled but said nothing.

Chen Ping poured a sip of wine into his mouth, the wine gourd pointed to the opposite side, and said with a smile: "Fan Dayu, you can see clearly, Li Shenjiao is protected by the Huai River behind him, and the Huainan Army is not a fish, how can you kick his ass." ”

Fan Xu's thick head was stunned, turned his head, looked at the Divine Arrow Camp opposite with his eyes wide open, touched the back of his head, and turned his eyes a few times, and suddenly his face burst out with surprise.

He finally saw the subtlety of Li Guang's shield array.

Ordinary backwater battles, even when Xiang Yu's backwater battles, would drive the army out of the shore for dozens of steps, or even hundreds of steps, and form a formation far away from the river.

This formation is no different from an ordinary infantry formation, if the opponent has cavalry, or if there are many soldiers and horses, you can surround and copy from the flanks and rear.

The pottery merchant secretly taught Li Guang this array, but it was not far away from the river, but with the Huai River water barrier, the two ends hugged the moon, forming an arc-shaped semi-circle array.

The rear of the semicircular array is Huaishui, forming a natural retreat, which makes it impossible for the Huainan army to copy the flank.

The side direction of the semicircle, which is different from the phalanx, must turn around when encountering an enemy attack and temporarily change the formation to deal with it.

Because ordinary soldiers and horses mainly rely on spear and halberd soldiers to block enemy horses, but Li Guang blocks enemy horses, but he relies on crossbowmen with super high hit rates, so there is no need to turn the direction at all, and he can directly use crossbowmen to release arrows in all directions in the formation.

The potters were familiar with history and knew that there was a method of warfare in history, which was most suitable for forming a formation with a small number of troops, luring a strong enemy to attack, and taking the opportunity to inflict heavy casualties on the enemy.

Previously, Chen Ping offered him a plan to let Li Guang's Divine Arrow Battalion land to attract the attention of Yuan Jun, and Tao Shang had an idea, so he thought of the Divine Arrow Battalion and combined it with the tactics of the Moon Array.

Now, as it turns out, he made the right decision.

Fan Xu, who was shocked, looked at the potter for a while, and then looked at the Shenjian camp in front of him, and admired the potter to the heart.

The earth-shattering drums sounded again, and the 800 lonely troops on the opposite bank were proud of the enemy tide 20 times.

Li Guangao stood in the formation, and the enemy army in front of him pounced closely, and he only shouted: "Release the arrow!" ”

The sound of strings shook the sky, and the raindrops of sharp arrows rose into the air, like a huge net, overwhelmingly towards the rushing enemy.

Puff puff!

A series of muffled sounds overshadowed the surging water of the Huai River, and the rain of arrows plucked down a large area of the enemy, splashing blood and howling miserably.

Three hundred enemy soldiers fell in a pool of blood on the spot.

The men and horses of the front team fell to the ground, which not only shocked the morale of the soldiers behind, but also slowed down their pace, and the speed of the enemy's charge immediately slowed down.

The endless rain of arrows relentlessly bombarded the crowded enemy army, shooting the 15,000-strong Huainan army into a river of blood and a mountain of corpses.

Yuan Yao made a fatal mistake, he didn't think that he would go head-to-head with the Tao army, so the army was not equipped with a large number of shields, resulting in his soldiers having almost no means of defense, and could only rely on their flesh and blood to press forward, and they all became live targets for the Tao army.

"How can this be, just eight hundred shooters, just blocking the attack of my army of more than 10,000, how can this be ......" Yuan Yao, the commander of the Chinese army, his whole face was already distorted.

Yuan Yao racked his brains and couldn't figure out why his 20,000 infantry army, plus 3,000 iron cavalry, couldn't break through the infantry formation of 800 people.

If you can't break through, it's just that you have suffered heavy casualties.

There are only 800 people on the other side, even if they are all marksmen, they are not so strong.

Humiliated, frightened, dazed...... Yuan Yao, who was suffering from all kinds of emotions, was about to go crazy.

Seeing that the plan was broken and his army was unfavorable, Yuan Yao, who was angry and ashamed, refused to order the withdrawal of his troops.

He still had hope that his army would be able to break through the enemy and save face for him.

He no longer had a chance.

The potters on the north bank estimated that the time had come, and immediately ordered nearly 10,000 soldiers of the infantry army deployed on the north bank to cross the river in a big way.

In the sound of the earth-shattering war drums, hundreds of bamboo rafts carried the soldiers of the Tao army into the Huai River and rushed towards the beachhead on the south bank.

Rafts rushed onto the river beach one after another, and thousands of Tao troops landed in a steady stream, joined Li Guangjun's team, and began to counterattack the chaotic enemy army.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, now is not the time to be rash, retreat quickly, it will not be good if you don't retreat." Yang Hong shouted excitedly.

Yuan Yao's remaining hope was finally shattered, and he finally realized that if he continued to die, it would not be as simple as defeat, once he was fully landed by the Tao army, his 20,000 army would be in danger of being annihilated.

"Give the order to go down, retreat, order the whole army to retreat." Yuan Yao shouted hoarsely.

In the Huainan army, the golden sound finally sounded, and the Huainan soldiers, who were shot to the point of heavy casualties and could not raise their heads, hurriedly hugged their heads and retreated, as if they had been amnestied.

On the north shore, every move of the enemy army could not escape the eyes of the potters.

"Drunkard Chen, as you expected, Yuan Yao's miscellaneous pieces can't support it, and he is about to retreat in an all-round way." The potter sneered, his eyes glancing at Chen Ping.

Chen Ping took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "Calculate the time, our Ying General's iron cavalry should almost arrive." ”

"It's not time to arrive, it's already here." The potter's horsewhip was raised, pointing in the direction of the west side of the opposite bank.

Chen Ping and the others raised their eyes and saw that in the direction of the west of the opposite bank, dust and mist were rising from the sky, and in the rolling sandstorm, an iron cavalry division rushed along the river, from the side and back, straight to the direction of Yuan Yao's Chinese army.

The potter raised his head and looked at the other side from afar, and sneered: "Yuan Yao, you only think about it now, it's too late." ”
