Chapter 833: Wave after Wave
Pound's appearance surprised Lu Bu, not because of the appearance of the person in front of him, but because of the strength of the knife in his hand, which was by no means comparable to that of an ordinary man.
As soon as the expert made a move, he knew if there was one, Pang De's means were really quite good in Lu Bu's opinion, and with the knife just now, Lu Bu felt that it was only higher than Ma Chao.
Pang De was a lieutenant under Ma Teng back then, and within a few years of enlistment, he made many military exploits under Ma Teng, and was promoted to captain not long after.
Originally, he was under Ma Teng's command, and as time went by, he would definitely be able to achieve the position of Ma Teng's right-hand man, but unfortunately, in the first battle of Chang'an, Ma Teng was beaten enough by Cao Cao, not to mention the loss of soldiers and horses, and even Pang De was captured by Cao Cao Sheng and became a fierce general under his command.
It's a pity that the rare good seedlings under Ma Teng's command are so cheap Cao Cao.
Ma Chao saw Pang De, and smashed the five-flavor bottle in his heart, but now he was really suffocated, and it was too much for him to continue to fight with Lu Bu.
Ma Chao was helpless, so he retreated towards the inner formation of his own Heaven and Earth Three Talent Array.
Pang De immediately pulled out his hand and fought against Lu Bu.
Lu Bu had fought Ma Chao for a while, and now he was fighting with Pang De, and he was somewhat lacking in strength, but he was fierce by nature and unwilling to retreat, so he gritted his teeth and fought with Pang De.
Zhao Yun commanded the soldiers to charge in the rear, and at the same time pinched a cold sweat for Lu Bu.
Zhao Yun is also a martial artist, he understands Lu Bu's current mood, but he also has confidence in Lu Bu's ability.
For now, he just needs to make a good plan for Lu Bu.
Not only Lu Bu, but also Xu Chu and Dian Wei, Ah Fei and Zhang Fei, Xu Huang and Guan Yu and others have already handed over.
Among them, the most eye-catching pair of fighters are Xiahou Yuan and Huang Zhong.
The two men and their soldiers were in the southeasternmost corner of the formation, and there was not much change here, so both of them displayed their soldiers and horses in place and did not move.
Both men were in the front with shield men as the front and crossbowmen as the rear army, and they were displayed in a corner of the battlefield, firing at each other in succession.
The soldiers and horses under Huang Zhong's command, some of them held bows, and some of them held crossbows, but it was very strange that some of the soldiers of the Xiahou Yuan army on the opposite side also used crossbows.
The soldiers under Huang Zhong's command asked Huang Zhongdao: "General Huang, the last time General Zhao and Liu Bei fought against each other, the Jingzhou army under his command had a crossbow, why does the Cao army also have crossbowmen now?" ”
Huang Zhong smiled and said: "What's there to wonder about, it's no secret that the Jinling crossbow has been powerful all over the world for many years, and it has been in battle repeatedly. Although the Jinling side tried its best to keep the design method of the repeater secret, the prime minister once said that there is nothing in the world that cannot be imitated, and the Jinling repeater has been born for so long, and it has only been imitated by people so far, which is already slow. ”
The adjutant nodded as if he didn't understand.
Huang Zhong said again: "Besides, our repeater is ten consecutive loads, although Cao Liu's repeater can also be fired continuously, but it is only five or six times, this technology is still not comparable to us, imitation is imitation after all, and it cannot be put on the table." ”
Before Huang Zhong's words were finished, sharp arrows whistled from the opposite side, slashed past Huang Zhong's face, and pierced the shield of a large shield soldier behind him, making a heavy muffled sound.
The shield soldier didn't stand still, and a fart squatted and fell heavily to the ground.
"Protect General Huang!"
"Cover General Huang!"
Huang Zhong's personal soldiers were in a commotion, and they all hurriedly came to Huang Zhong to protect him from arrow wounds.
That scene just now was too dangerous.
Huang Zhong didn't care, he stretched out his hand to push away the guards who were protecting in front of him, and looked at the opposite formation with interest.
According to his calculations, the place where he was located belonged to his own rear formation, and it was impossible for the other party to send arrows to this distance.
But the other party did! And the strength is still so great, it seems that he is a master of archery.
Huang Zhong looked from the direction where the arrow came, but he could vaguely see that in the opponent's formation, a blue-robed and copper-armored general stood there without concealment, demonstrating towards this side.
If the guess is correct, that person should be Xiahou Yuan.
Huang Zhong nodded with a smile: "It's a character." ”
The lieutenant general behind him swallowed lightly, and he whispered, "How much strength does this take, how many stones of bow do you have to shoot here?" ”
Huang Zhong said lightly: "Probably a three-stone bow or a four-stone bow." ”
"Huh?" When the deputy general heard this, he couldn't close his mouth.
He had heard of a person who could shoot a four-stone bow, but he had only heard of it, but he had never seen it.
What kind of celestial man does that have to be?
The adjutant general's expression fell into Huang Zhong's eyes.
He smiled disappreciatively: "Take the old man's five-stone bow!" ”
"Huh?" When the deputy general heard Huang Zhong's words, his body was crooked, and he almost fell off his horse.
He's going to shoot a five-stone bow? This old man is not joking, is he? Just his old arms and legs.
"Don't make trouble, the general is not in front of the two armies, but it is not good to be rash!"
Huang Zhong laughed: "Don't worry, the old man has lived for more than fifty years, and he never does that bluffing thing, since you let you bring it, then naturally you have some confidence." ”
When he was young, his own soldiers brought a five-stone bow.
Five-stone bows are very rare compared to two-stone bows, not because they can't be pulled, but because the materials used to make such a powerful bowstring are very rare in this era.
The so-called five stones do not refer to the weight of the bow, but to the tension and shooting force of the bowstring.
Huang Zhong picked up the bow, stretched out his hand and stretched his arm, squinted his eyes to look in the direction of Xiahou Yuan, and then ordered someone to take the special arrow.
The five-stone bow has a strong pulling force, and the arrows used are naturally not ordinary arrows.
Huang Zhong pulled the five-stone bow away, aimed at Xiahou Yuan on the opposite side, took a deep breath, and shouted: "Go!" ”
When the words fell, I saw that the sharp arrow shot out of Huang Zhong's hand quickly, and roared towards the military formation opposite, and the sound was extremely terrifying.
When the arrow rushed in, Xiahou Yuan couldn't help but be taken aback.
He hurriedly turned over, and he was able to dodge the sharp arrow in Huang Zhong's hand, but the speed of dodging was still a little slow.
After all, the sharp arrow scraped his cheek, and he saw blood flow out of Xiahou Yuan's face in an instant.
"This, this ......" Xiahou Yuan didn't know whether he was frightened or angry, and he was a little unfavorable when he spoke.
The surrounding guards hurriedly ran over.
"General, how are you?"
"General!"
Xiahou Yuan stretched out his hand and pulled those guards aside: "Get out of the way!" ”
Then, he saw Xiahou Yuan viciously looking at the golden armored figure holding a bow in the military formation opposite, and gritted his teeth and said, "Huang Zhong, old man, you wait for me!" ”
……
The battle under the city was in full swing, and the potters observed the situation below from the city, and from time to time listened to the situation in the surrounding area of the school office.
Unlike the potters, Guo Jia was in the city gate tower, looking at the map carefully, and muttered suspiciously: "There must be something wrong with this, there must be something I didn't expect, there must be something." ”
