1. Crossbows run like thunder
Fenglin Guanli water flows eastward,
White grass and yellow elm sixty autumn.? Follow? Dream?. lΔ
The generals will inherit the grace of the Lord,
No one has solved the road to Liangzhou.

"I don't need anyone to protect me, where Gao Shaoyin is, I'll be there." Du Huangshang was not happy because of the special treatment.
"Du Changshi, if you and I are injured, will it harm the overall situation, or will it be protected by the Buddha and stand behind the wooden fence at a stone's throw away." Gao Yue Zhengse said.
Du Huangshang thought that Gao Yue had a point, so he agreed.
"General Zhang, how are the crossbowmen of the White Grass Army?" At this time, Gao Yue asked about the guest general of Xuanrun next to him, who was also a shooting general, Zhang Xi.
Zhang Xi replied that 200 people had been taught, and the 200 people I had brought, making a total of 400 people.
"Okay, I'll leave the middle of the wooden fence to you, remember to dig the earth, fill the fence, and prevent the enemy from clash and trampling on the mule soldiers."
Zhang Xi had to be ordered to go.
Gao Yue then asked Hou Lan to lead 500 state soldiers and the Baicao army to fortify on the right flank; Cheng Junren led 700 state soldiers and the Baicao Army to fortify on the left flank.
Gao Gu led 800 people, as the second formation, ready to respond to each section.
And Cai Fengyuan led the remaining two hundred soldiers, standing at the end, responsible for protecting the banner of the Pixiu Iron Beast, and of course, he and Du Changshi's thoughtfulness.
At this moment, Li Xilie, Li Yuanping, and other generals in Huaixi stood one and a half miles away from the opening of the river meander, erected a yellow silk umbrella cover, erected the leopard tail gate gun flag, and looked at the white grass army opposite in a little surprise, "What is the origin of this army of soldiers and horses?" β
"I heard that it used to be a Baili camp in Jingyuan, and then I was given the military title of the White Grass Army, and I rushed here from Liangzhou across the Han River."
"What's that?" Li Xiyeol snorted coldly from his nostrils.
In his heart, he didn't put this freshman team in his eyes: Li Shi'er was also in a hurry, and I heard that he also pulled up the mausoleum households guarding the mountain in Qianling and made a "Ning **".
This main force is Tian Shi's White Grass Army, how can it be the opponent of the Huaixi Mule Army, which can conquer and fight?
Under the yellow umbrella, Li Yuanping was also surprised.
If the intelligence is good, isn't Yin Gaoyue, the military envoy of the White Grass Army and the young man of Xingyuan, the brother-in-law of the girl he has been thinking about for a long time?..
At this time, Li Yuanping touched the small jade ring hanging in the middle single coat with his hand, which was given to him by Fei Niang at the beginning, and there seemed to be a faint body temperature and fragrance of Fei Niang, Yuan Ping thought of this, and felt very annoyed, he is now trapped in the thief camp, and even his life is worried about it, and he doesn't know how to see Li Niang again.
At this moment, Xin Jingzhen said to Li Xilie: "Your Highness, don't take the enemy lightly, watch the Baicao Army stand up with the river meander, and it can achieve the effect of one enemy and three enemies, which shows that there are veterans of the military array inside." β
Li Xilie nodded, and said However, our Huaining army has 15,000 people, half of them are elites who have fought for a long time, since the Baicao Army is here, then Jia Tan is afraid that it is not far away, we have to fight urgently, break through the defense line of the Baicao Army, and capture Jutan into Nanyang, so that the court will be helpless against me.
Immediately, Li Xilie resorted to the method of agitation, "It's a pity that Wu Shaocheng and Wu Shaoyang, the two brave generals, are not in the army, otherwise they will lead the mule army to clash, and the formation of the white grass army will definitely collapse." β
So the mule army and horses made Anwar's blood surge, so he took the initiative to ask Ying and said, "Please give me 500 mule soldiers, General Xin will lead another 500 mule soldiers to follow, you can break the enemy in front of you and protect the king of Chu to Huaixi." β
Li Xilie nodded with satisfaction, and said Don't trust it, give you a thousand mule soldiers, Xin Jingzhen led two thousand mule soldiers to follow, and let his adopted son Jiang Huaizhen lead the most elite "fake child army" 1,000 people, passing through chrysanthemum water and stone streams, carrying wood, waiting for the opportunity to build a pontoon bridge, and cut off the back road of the Baicao army.
And he and Li Yuanping together, commanded more than 10,000 foot soldiers to serve as the cover of Anwar and Xin Jingzhen.
In the midst of the earth-shattering shouts, the mule army of the Huaining Army skillfully changed formations, the banners and drums echoed each other, and quickly divided into several attack groups according to Li Xilie's instructions, and then slowly pressed towards the meandering place where the White Grass Army lived.
"It's coming, it's coming!" Behind the various sections of the earthen wall and the wooden fence, the crossbowmen of Xuanrun and Baicao stared at each other, and then stepped on the crossbows with their feet to wind them in turn, and after they were ready, they turned the crossbow machine slightly upward, and their bodies fell down, looking at the overwhelming mule soldiers through the gaps in the wooden poles.
Zhang Xi shouted: "The enemy is thirty steps away from me before he can send a crossbow, and the offender will be killed!" β
"Stepping on the fence!" At the head of the Huaixi mule soldiers who rushed forward, Anwar shouted, ordered his troops, maintained the formation, and rushed straight to the wooden fence of the White Grass Army.
Xin Jingzhen, on the other hand, led more mule soldiers, galloping, following Anwar's headquarters about a hundred paces, and also lined up in several horizontal formations, once Anwar made a gap, he followed up and tore, squeezing all the poor foot soldiers of the White Grass Army into the chrysanthemum, and killing them all.
At this time, groups of black mule soldiers covered in armor had reached a distance of 100 paces outside the wooden fence.
The White Grass Army could clearly see each other's people and the mules under their crotches.
The mule soldiers in Huaixi are all riding the so-called "horses and mules", with big heads and big ears, slender limbs, and are very obedient to orders, so this makes thousands of mule soldiers next to each other, and can also maintain a dense and orderly formation, and once they are about to engage in battle, these horses and mules grow their mouths together, exposing Sensen's teeth, and emitting "Angangang" similar to the chirping of a donkey, which is very loud and very powerful.
At this moment, behind the wooden fence of the left and right wings, Hou Lan and Cheng Junren's soldiers have begun to throw arrows, and the arrows shot on both sides are mixed with whistling sounds, crossing into the formation of mule soldiers.
Soon, the black tide of mule troops, threw down a batch of corpses, arrived at the wooden fence fifty steps, "boom, boom" Huaixi soldiers under the hood of the ear cloth whirring fan, and in their hands raised iron forks, bones and shuttle darts, ready to raid and engage.
Hundreds of mules trampled on the earth, and the "ang ang ang" of the mules, a mixture of donkeys and horses, was terrifying.
"Hairbow!" Xuanrun's Zhang Xi jumped up at this moment and waved his arm, while the tooth soldiers behind him slammed several wooden slams.
Behind the wooden fence, all the Xuanrun and Baicao crossbowmen got up from the shallow soil pit, and the crossbow machine arrows raised were all pointed at the oncoming mule army.
The expressions on the faces of the mule soldiers were clearly visible in the direction of the arrowsβfierce, hideous, unreckless, and with many moments of horror when they saw the crossbow team.
"Snort!" A ** crossbow bolt pops out strongly.
Then there was the moment when they were completely nailed into the body of the mule army at the forefront like a torrential rain, and the queue of hundreds of mule soldiers suddenly rose and fell violently several times, and then the people and mules were in turmoil: some were lifted off, some were holding the neck of the mount and rolling forward together, and some swayed on the mule's back a few times, before they covered the wound of the crossbow arrow with their hands, and watched their blood fly uncontrollably everywhere, and fell on the saddle with a clatter, and choked.
"Wooden crossbow, wooden crossbow!" Zhang Xi shouted again.
At this time, the crossbow team put down the crossbow, and then from the waist or back, pulled out the wingman crossbow made of bamboo and wood, moved the bone fragment on it, and instantly shot a wave at close range.
The arrows of these crossbows were all coated with the highly poisonous medicine that Liu Yan had obtained from Gui Guan.
