Chapter 355: Skillful Use of the Divine Arm Bow
And the crossbow arrows with a hint of a whistling sound that breaks through the air, the speed of the fire is twice that of ordinary bows and arrows, and the crossbow arrows that have been readjusted and shot can easily penetrate the target of the nine-layer cowhide, and the soldiers with ordinary armor in the **** of a hundred steps can really pass through the chest directly. ()
The leader of the Yuan army stared at the Song army squad in the distance, biting his lip tightly and revealing a cruel smile, the killing that was about to start would bring him more pleasure and pleasure, and the record of beheading people did not know how many more strokes would be added today.
"Ahh
After a plop and an exclamation, the warriors who rushed to the front of the horses, as if they had been struck by a heavy hammer, fell off their horses violently, and saw that they were dead and motionless. This situation is still happening, and at this time, it can already be seen that what they are in is the Shen Arm Crossbow that the Song people are good at, the arrow cluster is short and thick, the arrow body is short, and the impact is huge, and the most impressive thing for the Yuan army is the ultra-long range.
"Ma's, be careful of the Song people's divine arm bow, and hide in the stirrups left and right!"
The first wave of crossbow arrows caused the Yuan army to lose more than a dozen horses, and the leader of the Yuan army hurriedly ordered his subordinates to dodge, but the soldiers in the rapid gallop could only rely on the rapid response of individual soldiers, and the order could only play a little prompting role.
In just one breath, the second wave of crossbow arrows of the Song army came in front of the Yuan army again, and the fast-flying crossbow arrows crackled and hit more than a dozen targets, and the two crossbow arrow attacks killed and injured nearly thirty people of the Yuan army, and suppressed the momentum of the Yuan army's galloping forward.
Once the cavalry fights and rushes up, it will never stop or turn easily, even if it is the enemy's sword and arrow rain in front, it will desperately rush to open a gap, although this Yuan army squad has been attacked, the goal has not changed after overcoming the panic, and it is still a rapid impact to kill the Song army.
The crossbowman in the middle of the team handed over the bow that had just been fired to the cavalry beside him, and the two of them worked together to pull the bowstring, and after putting on a crossbow arrow, they aimed and fired it like lightning, and then turned to urge the horse to retreat.
After firing three arrows in a row, the more than 30 strong crossbowmen immediately urged their horses to leave the team, ran forward for a distance of dozens of paces, turned over and dismounted in unison, cooperated with each other to pull the crossbow on the wind, and then turned over and waited on the horse.
There are more than 50 cavalry in the Song army, and their eyes have been staring at the Yuan army squad that rushed over, if it were not for the strong crossbowmen to cooperate with the battle, they would definitely hold leather shields to meet them, and use sharp sabers to tell the Yuan soldiers what the combat power of the Song cavalry was.
Resisted the three rounds of crossbow arrows of the Song army and lost dozens of knights, the anger in the hearts of the generals of the Yuan army had burned to the top of their heads, and they couldn't slap themselves in their mouths, why did they rush out so anxiously, how good it would be to wait for the Song army to get closer.
"Shoot the arrows!"
Most of the Yuan soldiers who were low on the side of the war horse and hidden under their abdomen quickly turned back on the horse, pulled out the longbow in their hands from the new, and shot the first wave of bows and arrows at the Song army team. This wave of bows and arrows was still flying in the air, and the second wave came out, followed by a third wave.
The Yuan soldiers are good at the chain of three arrows, and every trained adult soldier can easily complete the shooting, and the galloping war horse and the chasing flying bow and arrow can sprint towards the direction of the enemy team together.
This kind of shooting only seeks to cover the enemy, not the main means of killing the enemy, and the greatest effect is to allow the enemy's archers to spare their energy to defend or dodge, and create conditions for their soldiers to approach the enemy as soon as possible.
But what they didn't expect was that the Song army also shot a wave of bows and arrows, but this group of soldiers did not rush forward head-on, but quickly retreated after shooting the arrows, so that several waves of bows and arrows shot by the Yuan army fell into the air.
This is a tactical choice made by both sides according to different purposes when they are close to the maximum range of their bows and arrows, between retreating and advancing, it is only completed at a glance, and when the Yuan army understands, they themselves rush into the range of the Song army's bows and arrows.
At this time, the Yuan army had just fired three arrows in a row, and the strength on the body was very expended, and when dodging and protecting the bow and arrow of the Song army, there was some powerlessness, knowing that the bow and arrow of the Song army had arrived, but it was not able to dodge over, and more than ten people were hit by the arrow and fell into the dust.
The leader of the Yuan army who led the team was about to burst into flames in his eyes, obviously the Song army was not far ahead, and he was the one who ambushed and attacked in advance, but how did it be so awkward, and he was unable to fight back after being beaten in vain, and in such a short period of time, the numerical advantage was forcibly leveled by the Song army.
He urged his horses to continue to charge, shouting loudly for the soldiers' bows and arrows to continue to prepare, and as soon as the words fell, the strong crossbowmen of the Song army opened fire, and the sharp whistling sound wafted in the air.
This cavalry squad of the Yuan army is like a complete onion, which was peeled off the shell layer by layer by the Song army, gradually revealing its own vulnerability, and after carrying two waves of shots from the divine arm bow, the cavalry of this Yuan army squad is still rushing forward There are less than fifty people.
The cavalry of the Song army shot a wave of bows and arrows again, and hurried to meet them with an accurate rhythm, piercing, cutting, and cutting the panicked Yuan army squad that had lost its formation, and cut it into groups of several people, using fast speed to cooperate with the harvesting of life.
Originally, it was fifty against fifty, and it should have been an evenly matched fight, but the soldiers of the Yuan army seemed to be under siege, and the Song army's killing moves were all on the left and right, and he was fighting alone, without the help of his comrades.
The fight between men and horses went on very quickly, and when the generals of the Yuan army found that there were only a few companions left around them, they were completely desperate, and after throwing the enemy to their companions to parry, they rushed towards a weak side, trying to break out of the encirclement and escape.
He leaned down on his side and clung to the horse, deliberately hiding on the other side of the saddle, and if he didn't look closely, he would carelessly think it was just a startled horse, and let him escape.
He was about to snicker in joy as he rushed out of the battle group, when the galloping horse suddenly shook, and a crossbow arrow piercing through the horse's neck almost stuck in his eye. Followed by the warhorse's four hooves were weak, and even the people and horses fell to the ground, and the leader of the Yuan army, who was heavily smashed by the horse's body, struggled to stand up, and saw several crossbow arrows coming towards him from the air, and after screaming in his mouth, he was pierced through the chest by the crossbow arrows.
Basically the same scene was constantly played out on the way to Daxingfu, the woods and mounds with yellow leaves blown by the autumn wind, the small river with the rapid flow of water, the small cavalry sent by the Song army, and the Yuan army of Daxingfu fiercely clashed.
From the beginning of the mutual victory and defeat, soon the Song army occupied the advantage again, relying on the ultra-long range of the divine arm bow, even in the field of flexible and mobile operations in the Yuan army was also beaten helpless, a team of Yuan troops were surrounded and annihilated.
