Chapter 122 Asymmetric Warfare
The instigator and the others were walking and marching, when they suddenly saw a black dot quickly enlarged and flew over from afar.
"That's ......"
Before the students could see it clearly, a large scream sounded, and at the same time, a puff of blood splashed, accompanied by the sound of sharp weapons whistling, as if a large throwing gun was thrown by a strange force.
He saw with his own eyes that a subordinate not far away suddenly had a hole in his stomach, and a huge arrow like a spear passed through his body and nailed into the body of a person behind. And just before this moment, there seemed to be a gust of wind blowing around him.
"Ahh
In the midst of the screams, a raw head's head suddenly shattered, and a giant arrow pierced the person behind him.
At the same time, a torrential rain of crossbow bolts shot through the dense crowd. Although the crossbow arrows shot by the Divine Arm Bow were not as powerful as the "spear arrows" shot by the bed crossbow, they were more dense, causing a lot of damage in an instant.
It was too late to say that it was too fast, and at the same time that the Shengfan coalition army tasted the taste of the bed crossbow and the divine arm bow, a large piece of stone bullets also fell from the sky, and meteorites bombarded down, smashing and bouncing, and bursting out with terrified screams in the Shengfan team.
Even the patriarch of the Divine Tree Clan was stoned to death.
In the first round of blows alone, Shengban suffered more than 400 casualties. The people who died on the spot were lucky, and the worst ones were seriously injured and dying, and the ground was full of wailing, which made the Shengban brigade even more chaotic.
The instigated heart shrank tightly, looked in the direction of the Han people in astonishment, and forgot to give the order for a while. He never imagined that from such a distance, the Han people would be able to attack him.
What's going on?
What kind of weapon is this?
After all, he was the patriarch, and he quickly thought of a question that made him creepy, the Han people have such weapons, doesn't that mean that he can only be beaten now, and he can't fight back? In this case, how passive is it to say?
Just as he was trying to understand this truth, the crossbow fleet, with the assistance of two hundred peasant soldiers, quickly completed the second reloading operation.
"Ready-to-go!"
was still stunned in the first round of ultra-long-range strikes, and then faced a second round of strikes.
"Ahh
"Oh...... Yes! ”
The patriarch of another tribe died at the hands of a crossbow bolt.
In an instant, hundreds of lives were killed and wounded. In just two rounds of blows, Shengban suffered 10% casualties. Not only that, but the morale of the entire Shengfan coalition army was like a poisonous snake swimming towards its prey that was suddenly scalded by a snake letter, and it was frenzied, and the fierce flames dropped sharply.
His temples throbbed violently, and he saw many familiar people die before his eyes. The eight patriarchs of the coalition army, because they were all in front, are now two dead.
"Spread out, spread out!"
The agitation roared loudly in response, and the already ugly face became even more hideous and terrifying. However, although Shengfan is not afraid of death and has a murderous personality, he is completely a rabble, and he fights by rushing up, or surrounding him on all sides, and rarely pays attention to any strategy and tactics.
Although they had strict commands, they did not have a queue or a strict command system, and their organization relied entirely on the personal prestige of the patriarch and the chieftain. As long as there are more people and there is chaos, the transmission of orders on the battlefield will be extremely ineffective.
Instigating courage is brave, it is indeed a rare character in life, whether it is knowledge or resourcefulness, it is far beyond the average life. But even if it is him, commanding a team of thousands of people is already the limit of his ability, how can he command a large army of seven or eight thousand people?
He yelled several times, and the students closest to him understood what was going on.
"The patriarch has an order, disperse ......" instigated the surrounding students to roar.
Only then did the students receive the evacuation team and keep the order to keep their distance, but before they could evacuate, the third round of long-range attacks by the Han people followed.
Agitator's eyes were red, and once again he watched hundreds of warriors die and be wounded.
"Spread out!"
When the fourth round of attacks came, Shengfan's team finally evacuated a lot, so this time only more than 100 casualties were caused.
These four blows, speaking of only five minutes, have caused more than 1,000 casualties to Shengfan, and the casualties are nearly 20%!
To tell the truth, with this casualty rate, the average regular officer and army will be defeated, or even defeated. The Keshengfan coalition army relied on barbarism and bravery, but there was no sign of rout, defeat and escape, and the resistance to pressure was extremely strong.
However, although the Shengban coalition did not break up, it paused its advance.
Cui Xiuning watched from a distance as the dense Shengfan Brigade began to pull away, and he knew that the crossbow fleet would no longer have as big a gain as before. But when she saw the other person stop, she thought of a tactic.
"Archers advance and shoot!" Cui Xiuning ordered, "The crossbow fleet keeps attacking!" ”
Hu Gu personally supervised officers at all levels to lead the archers and auxiliaries to take the initiative to step forward and meet the Shengfan brigade, intending to get closer to the range of the attack.
Just as the archers were advancing, the "commander-in-chief" of the Shengfan coalition finally made a difficult decision: close the distance and win hand-to-hand combat!
In short, it cannot be withdrawn. If it is withdrawn, so many people will not die in vain?
"Rush! Rush to headhunting! ”
"Oh ho! Headhunting! ”
The students spread their feet and ran wildly, and they didn't care about conserving their strength.
The two sides are moving in opposite directions, and the distance is rapidly decreasing. But in the process, the stone cannon machine, the bed crossbow, and the god arm bow were constantly fired. At the same time, the cavalry that bit the two wings of Shengfan also kept throwing feather arrows, shooting and killing Shengfan who lacked protection. And Shengfan's bamboo bow can't shoot them at all.
In just a few moments, there were four or five hundred dead and wounded.
The Shengfan coalition army completely endured the "rain of bullets" and the harassing shooting of the cavalry, and was unilaterally beaten and took human lives to fill the distance between the two armies.
Soon, the distance between the two armies was close to the range of the bow. However, it is still a distance that the bamboo bow of the raw fan cannot reach.
"Stand—Ground!"
"Ready—"
"Put!"
Thousands of feathered arrows flew out, and a dense rain of arrows poured down on Shengfan. Bows and arrows, this is very big for unprotected students, and even though their team has been evacuated, more than 100 people are still shot dead and wounded.
"Put!"
"Put!"
Due to the fact that there are auxiliaries who specialize in delivering arrows, the archers have a fast rate of fire, and they can shoot three rounds in the blink of an eye. Coupled with the continuous strikes of the crossbow fleet and the cavalry team, this time there were five or six hundred casualties.
By the time Shengfan's bamboo bow could finally come in handy, their total casualties had reached more than two thousand, and many people's footsteps involuntarily began to slow down, and their originally murderous eyes began to appear confused and fearful. Isn't it hell that the descendants of the god of the mountains are now dying so many people, and none of the Han people on the other side are dead?
Nearly thirty percent of the casualty rate, even the average elite, can also collapse. But the army of Shengfan is still rushing forward. Whether it is heroic and fearless, or stupid, at least it really shows the tension of primitive barbarism vividly.
"Warriors! Shoot your arrows and taste the blood of the Han warriors first! ”
"The god of the mountains, give us luck and strength to shoot!"
The patriarch roared angrily and took the lead in raising the bamboo bow. At the same time, the students, whose morale had plummeted, suddenly became as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and those with bows and arrows took off their bows and arrows one after another, and screamed. It seems that the god of the mountains has suddenly given a mysterious power.
And at this moment, suddenly Hu Gu ordered: "Turn back!" Run and go! ”
"Turn back! Run and go! ”
Suddenly, the team turned around and ran together, and immediately opened up the distance again.
"Left and right, pick up the speed and stay in formation! Left and right! ”
When the students just pulled out their bows and arrows, they were stunned to find that this distance seemed to be ...... I don't think I can shoot it.
However, the long-range attacks of stone cannons, bed crossbows, divine arm bows, and cavalry archers have never stopped.
Shengban suffered casualties all the time, but he was still unable to attack the security team.
"Ahh The instigator could no longer bear to look up to the sky and screamed wildly, like a mad beast.
