Chapter 846: The Ink Crossbow

People are most afraid of unknown threats, and they are under tremendous stress in the process before they appear! In the advanced training class of the Youzhou Martial Arts Academy, there is a course called battle psychology that all generals have never heard of, and the main lecture is Liu Yi, the king of Yan, and this sentence is the first article of the opening meaning. For the generals who are fighting on the battlefield, their most taboo is not how strong the enemy is, but that it is nowhere to be found but tightly wrapped around you, so that you can feel its existence but do not make a move, which will make the nerves of the generals have been in a tense state, once this process continues, it will bring heavy pressure, so that the bearer is likely to lose his previous calm and judgment in the huge pressure!

For the generals of the Yan army, who fought a hundred battles on the battlefield, the situation that King Yan said had appeared in their conquest career, and that feeling was indeed extremely uncomfortable as Liu Yi said, and from the perspective of battle psychology, he should use it properly to prolong the time of this potential threat when facing the enemy, which is also the reason for concealing and preemptive in the art of war. Of course, before that, you must have an in-depth understanding of the opponent's military habits and personality, in order to make various arrangements in a targeted manner, which not only involves the generals' judgment of the opponent, but also reflects the importance of military intelligence, although Yan Wang's words are novel, but if you think about it carefully, it is indeed in line with the art of war, but the truth in Liu Yi's mouth is more simple and easy to understand!

In the face of the unexpected silence of the Yan army, the soldiers used by the Cao army for the first wave of attacks were in such a state of mind at this time, the enemy must have a back hand, which every Cao soldier will not doubt in his heart, they will not let themselves easily approach the camp like this, but what is this back hand? But no one can speculate, the kind of calm above the Yan army's position makes them kick in their hearts, or at this time, ten thousand arrows can make them more comfortable! This kind of psychology will have an impact on people's state unconsciously, and in Zhang Xiu's eyes, this effect is that in Cao Jun's last impact, the angle of the soldier is slightly weaker than normal.

This change is extremely subtle, and it may be difficult for the soldiers and soldiers of Cao to perceive, because they are psychologically affected by the authorities, and Zhang Xiu is a bystander, and the Yan army's instrument battalion was only joined in this reorganization, and their weapons are all first-class secrets in the army, which is the kind of unknown threat to the locality, in order to maximize the power of the instrument battalion, the defenders must try to put the attacker closer before attacking. In this process, Cao Jun's elite performance also verified the judgment of King Yan at that time, and his actions were indeed affected, with his own experience and the effect of the actual battle in front of him, Zhang Xiu admired King Yan even more.

Seeing that the enemy army has advanced to within 100 steps from the village, this distance with the combat strength of the Cao army can rush to the front of the Chang'an camp in a blink of an eye, at this time the other party is not silent, they shouted and killed to speed up, and it looks extremely strong! And at this moment, a grim smile appeared at the corner of Zhang Xiu's mouth, and the command flag in his hand waved down, followed by a huge bowstring sound, and then the Cao soldiers in the impact saw a scene they had never seen before!

With a piercing whistling sound, eighteen huge crossbows arrived with a fierce wind, and on this slightly narrow official road, it was arranged enough to seal all the angles of Cao Jun's army. In the final impact, the shield array in the front row of the Cao army never dispersed, which is the most effective protection for the bow and crossbow, but this protection can only deal with ordinary crossbow arrows or strong attack hard crossbows, but it is not worth mentioning under the impact of the improved Mofang crossbow in the instrument battalion.

The soldier holding the giant shield only felt a strong and irresistible huge force hit the shield, smashing the well-built giant shield several inches thick, and then a sharp pain came from between the chest and abdomen, and the enemy's crossbow arrows were extremely sharp after smashing the shield array and inserted them into their chests unstoppably, and the speed was too fast to react, and this was not the end, the crossbow arrows continued to advance again, until the four or five Cao soldiers were strung together in a prescription to stop the momentum, Those soldiers who were pierced on the crossbow arrows would not die for a while, and the intense pain was unbearable even for these elites of a hundred battles, and the sound of ** came and went, and the shield array in the front row had disappeared, and that terrifying whistling sound sounded again!

The Mofang Divine Crossbow is an improvement on the basis of the original Cloud Piercing Crossbow, because the White Tiger Battalion's Cloud Piercing Arrow is powerful and the improvement is mainly from the hands of the White Ink Man Mo Fang, so it is named after this person. Compared with the previous bed crossbow, the Mexican crossbow has been greatly improved in terms of range and power, the best killing distance is within 100 steps, the designer also has ingenuity in the tail of the special arrow to take the design of the hole sound, that sharp whistling is from this, there is the effect of seizing the enemy's will to disrupt the enemy, this battle is still the first time that the Mexican crossbow is used in actual combat, this first appearance can be said to be amazing, and its power in close combat is undoubtedly displayed!

Among the princes at the end of the Han Dynasty, Liu Yi paid the most attention to military science and technology, after years of painstaking management, the equipment gathered more and more talents, and the innovation of the equipment brought to the army was also endless, which played a great role in the improvement of the combat power of the Yan army and the logistics of the attack and defense in all aspects, the sky cannon, the cloud piercing arrow, and the sea dragon ship have long been famous all over the world, and I believe that after today's war, the prestige of the Mexican crossbow will also spread among the Han Dynasty. In later generations, there was a place to strengthen the army with science and technology, and advanced technology has occupied a core role in the military field, and Liu Yi's use of it in this world, although it is impossible to be like the later generations, has also reflected extremely obvious results.

Human imagination is a prerequisite for transforming the world, embodied in the instrument camp is more obvious, under the inspiration and encouragement of the Yan King, these skilled craftsmen will give full play to the imagination to the extreme, the power of the crossbow is not only what Fang just showed, it has great power at both ends of the attack, there is a special arrow can be ignited and burned, and the flame can be kept alive in high-speed flight, which has involved the field of aerodynamics, Although there were no scientific theories at this time, the craftsmen of the tool institute had already operated it in practice, and this arrow could show great power when attacking the opponent's camp, and the design of the base also made him more flexible in battle!

The power of these instruments is undoubted, but there are also extremely high requirements for the fineness of the selection of materials and the perfection of workmanship, so the output is not too high at this time, like this Mofang crossbow in the entire Chang'an army is only forty, the dragon and the tiger guard and other armies are also general, if you want to play a huge role, you must choose a good time to use, which is also a new topic for the generals of the military command, good steel is used on the blade, and they also need to accumulate experience in actual combat for the use of these technical arms, As experience improves, they will play an even greater role.

The continuous improvement of ordnance also puts forward higher requirements for the military instrument battalion, in addition to the daily basic exercises, they have to invest huge energy to familiarize themselves with these sophisticated equipment in order to exert ten percent of the power on the battlefield, the non-commissioned officers in the instrument battalion are also classified, according to the Yan army at this time is the operator and the guard, the former in the drill to pay more attention to the skilled control of the ordnance, and in the equipment battalion drill outline has a point that is different from other armies, once the war situation is in danger, The first thing they have to do is destroy these ordnance!

Eighteen Mofang crossbows are lined up, and the self-camp wall is specially set aside for it to be fired, and there are only three soldiers responsible for the operation next to each crossbow arrow, but there are as many as ten soldiers waiting for the replacement of arrows, which is the best personnel match after countless exercises, and on the corner tower of the walled city, the captain of the Chang'an military equipment battalion will be responsible for directing the whole battalion to carry out orderly and accurate launches, and these captains must receive the most rigorous training in the Youzhou Martial Arts Academy. They must have an in-depth understanding of the structure, use and maintenance of the equipment in their battalion, and they also belong to a special group of talents in the Yan army!

At this time, the captain standing on the corner tower looks extremely young, with a very standard baby face, this person is named Cheng Yilong, the army is called Xiaolong, at this time is only nineteen years old, don't look at his youth, in the equipment battalion he can say the same, under Liu Yi's strict requirements, the captains of the military equipment battalions must not only be proficient in the knowledge of equipment but also have excellent military quality, the acceptance of these knowledge is generally the fastest young people, so the age of the captains of the military equipment battalions is not very old, Cheng Yilong is one of the youngest!
