Two hundred and eighty-six resolute Gao Shun

In order to make his war tools stronger, Guo Peng didn't know how much effort he put in.

In addition to carefully training the army, he did not hesitate to mobilize a large number of manpower and material resources to build ordnance and build a huge number of ordnance to assist in the war, which other warlords could not do.

I don't know if Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu can do it, anyway, Lu Bu definitely can't do it.

He has no time, no resources, no energy.

When the military formation advanced to a certain position, Guo Peng ordered the war drums to stop beating, and the advancing military formation stopped advancing in an orderly manner, and fortified on the spot.

Gao Shun stopped when he saw that Guo Peng's military formation was still a short distance away from the military formation on his side, and felt that this was not the range of ordinary bows and crossbows, so he was a little suspicious, and then immediately reacted, suspecting that Guo Peng wanted to use it for long-range strikes.

Looking at this posture, it is probably a long-range strike weapon such as a strong crossbow.

There are many types of strong crossbows, and they are relatively high-end long-range strike weapons, and there are not many in Lu Bu's army.

This time, the soldiers attacked in two ways, and the limited strong crossbows were basically taken away by Lu Bu, and there were only a few on his side, and they could not form a large-scale strike, so they simply did not use it.

It seems that Guo Peng has a lot of strong crossbows on his side.

The range of the strong crossbow exceeds that of the ordinary bow and arrow, and the lack of a big shield on your side may be a little difficult to defend, and you can't retreat, so you can only speed up the progress and strive to enter the bow and crossbow shooting link as soon as possible.

So Gao Shun ordered to speed up the speed of the drumming, and ordered the front-line army formation to speed up the pace of advance, and start counter-shooting and hand-to-hand combat as soon as possible to offset the opponent's advantage in the crossbow.

As soon as the herald ended, Gao Shun's eyes widened, as if he had seen some incredible scene.

For him, it should be incredible.

A large number of arrows flew up from behind Guo Peng's military formation, cutting through a short and straight arc, accurately covering Gao Shun's military formation.

The general number is good to say, barely able to carry it, relying on those big shields to withstand for a while, you can enter the combat range, and the advantage of the strong crossbow in range is meaningless.

But that's too much.

Gao Shun set off a storm in his heart.

Guo Peng...... How many crossbows are there?

At the beginning, there were not many, Guo Peng looted the treasury of Qingzhou, and got more than 800 pieces, after a little understanding, Guo Peng collected craftsmen and began to build and produce strong crossbows of various strengths, arm crossbows, waist crossbows and kick crossbows and so on.

After occupying Yanzhou, Guo Peng collected more than 800 usable strong crossbows from several counties and the Yellow Turban Army in Yanzhou, plus the ones he had built over the years, he could make up nearly 10,000 strong crossbows.

In addition to the general bow and arrow, Guo Peng also brought 3,000 high-strength waist crossbows to the army, and a group of soldiers who can skillfully use waist crossbows can launch long-distance intensive shooting far better than ordinary bows and crossbows at any time.

Those soldiers in Gao Shun's army rushed forward and heard a sound of breaking the air, and when they looked up slightly, they saw countless black things approaching quickly.

In the next instant, a rain of arrows covered the area.

A black crushing piece fell from the sky, covering the ground, and the people standing on the ground fell as if they had collapsed, and a burst of blood splashed everywhere.

This is the first round, and there is a second round, and a third round.

Guo Peng equipped each crossbowman with a share of 100 bows and arrows, which could strike for a long time, and if he was exhausted during a long confrontation, someone could take over the shooting.

When they are wound, they all sit on the ground, straighten their legs and pedal the bow, their feet clamp the crossbow arm, and the arm is wound by the leg force and waist force, and then take the arrow and bite the string to aim and shoot, and the rows of crossbowmen continue to pull the string, put on the arrow, and shoot in batches, forming a rain of arrows.

It was difficult to stop without hoplites and tight large shields, and even the cavalry of the pre-stirrup era could not withstand it.

And at the moment it is clear that it will not take long to strike.

Each round of arrow rain strikes was accompanied by the shouts of soldiers, showing the army's strong will to fight and strong combat effectiveness.

The fate of Gao Shun's army was not much better than that of Gongsun Zhan's White Horse Yicong, they were originally the hope of Gao Shun's decisive battle, the hope of opening the way to victory in the war, but they were buried in an instant.

After the rain of arrows struck, there were not many people still standing in the three military formations discharged by Gao Shun, Guo Peng immediately ordered the marching with drums, and the front army immediately shouted a loud battle horn, with spears and big shields, stepped on the steps of death, and attacked in unison.

The huge momentum directly crushed the fighting will of those Gao Shunjun soldiers who were still alive, and they turned around and ran away with a strange scream.

"Brother, it's time, let's attack the cavalry."

Guo Jia judged that the time had come, and immediately made a statement to Guo Peng, who nodded and ordered the cavalry to attack.

The sound of war drums suddenly became short, the military flag swayed, and Zhao Yun and Le Jin each led a cavalry and began a roundabout assault on the two flanks of Gaoshun's army.

Crush his cavalry, cut off his retreat, disturb his morale, and directly collapse his entire army.

Since the number of troops is the same, it is time to compete in other areas.

Gao Shun, in other aspects, can I lose to you?

The situation on the battlefield was already quite obvious, and the three armies of Guo Peng's front army marched in unison, attacking step by step with the bright spears on their heads.

The defeated soldiers of Gao Shun's department screamed and fled back, although there were warlords who shot arrows and forbade them to get close to the military formation to disrupt the formation, but it was not of much use, for them, the threat from the rear was much greater than that from the front.

"Let me go home!"

"I'm not fighting, I'm going home!"

"If you don't let me go, I'll kill you!!"

These non-commissioned officers who were close to collapse did not understand what military discipline was, and vigorously attacked the defense line of the supervising team, directly crushing the supervising team, shouting all kinds of words that shook the morale of the army, successfully shaking the morale of the army, and making the rest of the military array also panic.

The people in front died so quickly?

So what am I doing here?

Looking for death?

No matter how many the overseers were, they couldn't stop the army formation that was about to collapse, and a large number of routs abandoned their weapons and turned around and ran away without a trace of hesitation.

This is where the distinction between professional and non-professional comes into play.

For this situation, Gao Shun obviously did not expect it, and there was no corresponding plan, and Guo Peng's army had already pursued it.

The soldiers stabbed their spears into the enemy's body with unmistakable accuracy, stabbed out ferociously, pulled out, stabbed out, stabbed out, pulled out.

The enemy fell in rows, and the soldiers stepped on their corpses, not squinting.

The cavalry roared on both wings, and the galloping horses kicked up a cloud of dust.

Zhao Yun and Le Jin led troops to attack quickly, and the scarce and vulnerable cavalry of the Gao Shun army were simply routed.

Then he decisively attacked forward, penetrated directly into Gao Shun's rear army, cut off their retreat directly, used cavalry to penetrate it to attack their unpreparedness, shake their organization, and took out the equipped axe and threw it violently, whether it could kill people.

"General! Hurry up and retreat! If you don't withdraw, it's too late! ”

At this time, on the hill, Gao Shun still didn't react as he should.

Seeing that the army formation he had painstakingly arranged was broken by dividing it by two, and the 20,000-strong army was crushed at the first touch, he couldn't figure it out anyway.

"Can't be returned! Now it's back! That's it! All 20,000 people are finished! The mission given to us by General Lu was a complete failure! ”

Gao Shun broke free of Song Xian's hand that was pulling him, and yelled, "Attack!" Give me a strike! No retreat! Trapped! Go with me! ”

Gao Shun actually planned to personally lead the elite professional corps of the trapped camp to attack, trying to turn the tide.

"General! It's too late! Guo Peng's cavalry has already attacked, and it will soon be able to cut off our retreat! If you don't leave, you will have to catch Guo Peng all of them! ”

"Can you escape the pursuit of his cavalry?"

Gao Shun roared: "If I withdraw now, Shuai Qi retreats, and the whole army will collapse faster!" Now onward! There is still a silver lining! I've made up my mind! Never back down! ”

Gao Shun pulled out his waist knife and pointed forward: "Trap the camp!" Go with me! ”

The trapping camp is the elite trained by Gao Shun, only listening to Gao Shun's orders and the orders of the generals appointed by Gao Shun, and now Gao Shun has given the order, and the whole battalion of the trapping camp has no hesitation to follow Gao Shun to attack.

Song Xian watched Gao Shun's attack in disbelief, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet for a while, and could only follow as if he had given up on himself.
