Chapter 934: The Goose Crossbowman Meets the Horseman

In the cheers of the mountains and tsunamis, Liu Jingxuan walked to Liu Yu's side and smiled slightly: "Jinnu, there is really you, the big guys were afraid and desperate, to put it to you like this, all of them are like little tigers, howling, all of them are back!" ”

Liu Yu said calmly: "Mobilizing the emotions of the soldiers is what we should do as a commander and colonel, what we want is to take them to victory and survive, not to let them die meaninglessly." ”

Liu Jingxuan looked at the military array on the opposite side and said, "It seems that only these three thousand or so Yan troops will attack, what is Murong Chui thinking, is it a cat and mouse?" ”

Liu Yu shook his head: "In my opinion, it's not that Murong Bao wants to fight, but that Murong Bao wants to establish his authority as the prince of the world, and he wants to fight this battle." As I said just now, this is our opportunity, if we beat Murong Bao and play our military prestige and morale, it will make Murong Chui realize our value, and we will be left out of the need to restrain that traitor, so this battle is not for victory or defeat, nor for life and death, but to show our strength, we have been practicing how to deal with cavalry all these years, and now is the best time to test our tactics. ”

Xiang Jing also came over, at this time, he had already picked up a long lance, and laughed: "Brother Jinu, you can fight as much as you say, the big guys will listen to you." ”

Liu Yu smiled slightly, looked at the military formation opposite, and said: "Although Murong Bao is arrogant, he is not stupid enough to directly dispatch cavalry to charge the formation, give orders, retreat to the scorched earth in the rear, protect the wings with horses and antlers, and prevent the enemy's flank impact, I want to force Murong Bao to come up and shoot at our army head-on!" ”

In front of the Yan army, Murong Bao was dressed in golden armor, shining, looking at the Beifu army singing war songs on the opposite side, and sneering: "It seems that their morale is good, Liu Yu really has some ability, and he can make these people happily send them to death without knowing it, it seems that what my sister-in-law said before is really not bragging." ”

Murong Feng's brows on the side were deeply locked: "Your Royal Highness, although the number of the other party is small, it is not to be underestimated, now they have retreated into the scorched earth, and they have begun to reject horses on both wings, our army wants to outflank from the side, I am afraid it will be difficult, Liu Yu seems to want to force us to confront head-on." ”

Murong Bao smiled and pointed to the dense military formation behind him: "Just here we are, there are three thousand cavalry, six to one, what else is there to worry about?" King Yidu, you said that if I ordered a full-scale assault now, what would be the result? ”

Murong Feng said categorically: "By all means, these Beifu soldiers are neat and tidy, and they have lined up the military formation to prevent frontal impact, you see that they are in front, and the people are heavy on armor, this is waiting for our cavalry to rush hard, if they can deploy a rejection horse on both wings, there will be a way to prevent the impact on the front, our armored cavalry is the most powerful killer weapon, it is only used when it is decisive, and it cannot be consumed and lost in vain now, after all, it took several years for King Wu to form this army, it is not easy." ”

Murong Bao hooked the corners of his mouth: "Okay, okay, I know, if you don't need to ride armor, you don't need it, give the order, the light horse stepped forward and shot the enemy at a gallop, I want to see if they are really indestructible!" ”

On the high post, Murong drooped his brows tightened, watching the military formation in front of him begin to move under the command of horns and banners, the heavily armored cavalry that was originally lined up in front began to retreat to both sides, and more than 300 cavalry light cavalry, holding big bows, wearing leather armor, riding a shorter, four-hoofed galloping horse, began to form a horizontal formation in front of the large array.

Murong De also stood by Murong Chui's side at this time, as the deputy commander of the whole army, the more than 20,000 archers in front of him were commanded by him, he smiled slightly: "It seems that the prince of the world has made great progress, if it was changed before, I think he would probably directly assault with armor and cavalry, and eat the opponent at once." ”

Huan Xuan said with a smile: "Actually, I think it would be better if I solved it directly with a cavalry, so that Liu Yu was inciting morale and retreating from the formation, which was already a bit out of time." ”

Murong De said in a deep voice: "Huan Shizi, there is no suspense in this victory, and our Dayan soldiers also hope to have a dignified battle, lest the Jin people will say that we will only use deception to line up for them, what can we do?" You must know that our Dayan is not only rampant in armor, but also unique in the world in riding and archery. ”

Murong Lan shook her head calmly: "Ninth brother (Murong De is the youngest brother, ranked ninth), I'm afraid it's not as easy as you think, I have been with the Beifu Army for many years, and I know that they have very good training to deal with cavalry, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to eat them only by riding and shooting." ”

Murong De's face changed, and a heavy sound of drums and horns sounded in front of him, accompanied by a large number of shouts before the impact of the Hu cavalry, the light cavalry began to move forward gradually, walking slowly, fast, trotting, accelerating, sprinting, and when they were about a mile away from the Beifu army on the opposite side, they had already increased their speed to the maximum, and the knights' helmets or wild braided hair were flying in the wind, just like the mane and tail of the fierce horse galloping, full of momentum!

Liu Yu was still standing calmly in front of the array, behind him, in front of the wide front, ten iron party formations, the big shield in front, the long lance stretched out from the top and side of the shield, pointing straight ahead, the whole large array, not moving at all, let the hundreds of galloping horses on the opposite side, swept the dust, and the wild howl of the Hu cavalry, like a wild wolf howling the moon, shocking, but it was difficult to move the soldiers of the Beifu at all.

The teams of the Beifu Army were shouting loudly with the flag leaders: "Steady, steady!" ”

Finally, the Yan army rode lightly, rushed to less than a mile in front of the Beifu military formation, more than two hundred steps away, the knights on the horse all stood up, these skilled riders, since childhood in the saddle life, even the galloping horses, for them are like a chair at home, they just stood on the stirrup, picked up the big bow, grabbed more than six or seven bows and arrows in one hand, just like this, just in one wave, on a bow and arrow buckled by the index finger on the winding, against the Beifu military array more than 100 steps away, even without aiming, Just ready for launch.

Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly, and he raised his hand suddenly: "Crossbowman, geese walking!" ”

With this order, more than fifty crossbowmen in iron armor rushed out from behind the shield, quickly spreading diagonally in front of the shield, holding four-stone strong crossbows in their hands, the three-pole crossbow arm was controlled by a rotary machine spring, and the topmost crossbow arm had been wound, and in an instant, aimed at the Xianbei riders who were standing on the stirrups and coming from the wind.

Liu Yu's hand waved down forcefully: "Five arrows and one ride, shoot!" ”
