The 12,000 infantry cavalry and the 15,000 pure cavalry in the western part of the ridge, if they had the same weapons and equipment, no matter how you look at it, there is no possibility of defeat in the Black Domain City.

Lingxi knows this very well, even if there are any conspiracies and tricks in the Black Domain City, in the face of absolute strength, everything is an extravagant hope, even if it is 10,000 steps back, the Black Domain City can have a combat power higher than the western part of the Lingxi, but if you want to completely defeat the 15,000 cavalry in the western part of the Ling, it will break the teeth of the Black Domain City.

This is also the origin of the confidence that Yu Han dared to launch a general attack on the Black Domain City without any scruples, even if he couldn't defeat the Black Domain City in the end, could it be that the Black Domain City could not fight against tens of thousands of cavalry with thousands of cavalry.

But when the horse on the war horse saw wave after wave of arrow rain rising into the air, the whole person was a little confused, the cavalry who can ride and shoot is not nothing, the cavalry in the west of the ridge in the first wave of attack has a full 3,000 people, and the cavalry behind will naturally use bows and arrows, but the technique of archery immediately is slightly inferior, so it will be arranged in the second wave of attack teams to penetrate the infantry phalanx of Black Domain City.

There were crossbowmen in the infantry phalanx, and it was not surprising that there were crossbowmen in the infantry phalanx, but there were a few too many of them, and the number was beyond the limit of what Han could accept.

These are not the most important things, when Yu Han found that the cavalry in the western part of the Lingxi who attacked the infantry phalanx were shot down by arrows like cutting wheat, the whole person was like drinking a bucket of ice water in the third and ninth days, and he felt trembling from the bottom of his heart.

Is this the power of the wolf's tooth arrow that he has seen before?

I'm afraid that only Datang's strong crossbows have such power, but there are not many Datang's strong crossbows! Otherwise, it would not be easy for An Lushan to attack the Khitan.

As a general, Yu Han also has a strong crossbow made by the Tang Dynasty in his hand, although the power of the strong crossbow is huge, but the shortcomings are also quite obvious, that is, the speed of winding is very slow, ordinary people can't even pull the bowstring with both arms, they can only use their feet and hands to pull the bowstring apart, which is why the strong crossbow is also called the foot crossbow.

Yu Han found that he couldn't understand the army in front of him at all, the number of bows and crossbows could be understood, and the power could be explained, but the speed of firing was so fast, it couldn't be explained.

In just a short period of thirty or forty breaths, Ha Han found that six or seven waves of arrows had been shot out of the infantry phalanx of Black Domain City, and this kind of attack had not stopped since one hundred and fifty paces, and the corpses of the cavalry in the western part of the ridge had already been covered with one arrow, and the number of them made Ha Han feel deep despair, even if it was finally defeated, it was a disastrous victory that was unacceptable to the western part of the ling.

He Hantong was shocked by Wang Peng, Zhen Sixteen and others, they knew the power of these powerful crossbows, but they had not experimented on the battlefield, and they were always uneasy in their hearts.

Even Wang Peng had already prepared a plan for dealing with the cavalry in the western part of the ridge after penetrating the infantry phalanx, and he didn't dare to expect those who had just joined the crossbowmen to block the impact of the cavalry in the western part of the ridge.

This is an infantry phalanx that has not yet been tempered on the battlefield, half of the infantry can only be regarded as a number, and the veterans with battlefield experience are less than 30% of the number, and they do not pin their victory on this infantry phalanx at all.

Ma Sui on the side also opened a big mouth that could be stuffed into duck eggs, as if he had seen a ghost, it can be said that he knows better than Zhen 16 and Zhen 18 that this infantry phalanx has only been established for more than half a month, and his personal combat strength is so-so, but the overall coordination is not as good as half of the Tang Army, plus the nature of the Murwei people is not constrained, as an infantry phalanx that needs close cooperation, these people cannot be regarded as qualified soldiers.

But it was these unqualified soldiers who burst out with combat attack power that made Ma Sui almost drop his eyeballs.

Six thousand crossbowmen actually blocked the charge of the cavalry in the west of the five thousand ridges, which reminded Ma Sui of the great battle of Li Ling in the Han Dynasty that went deep into the grassland.

At that time, Li Ling led 5,000 foot soldiers out of Juyan, and the lone army went deep into Junji Mountain, and encountered Shan Yu. The Xiongnu besieged Li Ling with 80,000 cavalry. After eight days and nights of fighting, Li Ling killed more than 10,000 Huns, but because he could not get the support of the main army, he ran out of ammunition and food, was unfortunately captured, and finally surrendered.

5,000 foot soldiers under the siege of 80,000 cavalry, can hold out for eight days, and kill more than 10,000 Huns, this is an infantry-to-cavalry battle in the annals of glorious history, who dares to say that the combat effectiveness of the infantry is inferior to the cavalry.

And the reason why Li Ling was able to not fall behind under the siege of the Hun 80,000 cavalry was that he relied on the strong bow and crossbow in the hands of the foot soldiers, and the mobility of the foot soldiers was not as good as the cavalry, but the combat effectiveness was not worse than the cavalry, as long as it could block the charge of the cavalry, it could kill the cavalry from a long distance, and there were many precedents in history for the infantry to defeat the cavalry.

But the foot soldiers can only defeat the cavalry, but not the cavalry!

However, the impact and mobility of the cavalry are too terrifying, and they can completely drag down and drag the enemy several times their own to death, but this has a premise, that is, when the will to fight has been completely lost, the cavalry can defeat the foot soldiers.

But the current situation is completely different, there is no need for Wang Peng to mobilize at all, and every Murwei person in Black Domain City knows in their hearts that once they lose the protection of Black Domain City, there is only a dead end in the hands of Lingxi, and the will to fight is unprecedentedly high, and no one retreats at all.

Wang Peng can leave Murowei, Zhen Sixteen and the others can also give up Murowei, but the natives of Murowei cannot, for the sake of their families, these Murowei people in Black City are ready to sacrifice.

Watching the cavalry in the western part of the ridge being shot by arrows in pieces, Wang Peng's hanging heart finally let go, before this, he was also ready for a tragic victory, after all, the strength of the two sides is clear, the cavalry in the west of the 15,000 ridge, if you don't launch a general attack, slowly consume with the Black Domain City, first drag down the 4,000 Black Domain City cavalry, and then surround the 8,000 Black Domain City infantry, as long as half a month, keep harassing and sneaking attacks, even if the Black Domain City is well armed, it is futile to catch up with the enemy.

The course of the war was beyond Wang Peng's expectations, and it was within Wang Peng's plan!

Yu Han's sudden general attack disrupted Wang Peng's plan, and he wanted to slowly consume the strength of the western part of the Ling, but he didn't expect that Yu Han would rush up desperately, and he was really looking for his own death!

The power of the powerful crossbow of the latest equipment made Wang Peng's eyes shine, and the dense rain of arrows could completely suppress the same number of cavalry, which gave Wang Peng great confidence.

As long as you can block the onslaught in the western part of the ridge, the next thing is to beat the water dogs.

"The counteroffensive begins!"

"Order Zhen Da and Zhen Er to block the retreat of the cavalry in the western part of the ridge, and the ironclad cavalry can be dispatched!"

"Order Zhen 16 and Zhen 18, all the foot soldiers press, at all costs, drag the attack of the cavalry in the western part of the ridge, and the net collection operation begins!"

As soon as Wang Peng's words fell, three banners were raised behind Wang Peng, which was the signal of the counterattack, and the most tragic massacre without the slightest suspense was about to be staged!
