Seeing that his team was getting more and more crowded, and the horse's head was almost opposite the horse's buttocks, Helenwanza immediately ordered: "Sons, rush out!"

The Hun cavalry at the front had to draw their horses to advance, they knew that the first person to go up would not live, not that they regarded death as home, but that they had no choice, and if they did not go up, they would die, perhaps their sacrifice could be exchanged for the life of their clansmen.

At the same time, the soldiers led by Xu Huang and Guan Yu had already rushed over from the north and south gates.

Liu Fan instructed the soldiers to clear all the cars around the city gate. Then the thousands of crossbowmen unfolded three layers and three outer layers, and the rest of the three thousand soldiers stood behind the archers with spears.

Fortunately, the view around Jiangyi City is wide, otherwise so many soldiers would not be able to spread out in front of a city gate.

Liu Fan changed the original distribution method again, dividing the 800 archers into two rounds, one team of 100 people, and four teams in each round.

Considering that the enemy's attack would be more ferocious next, Liu Fan more than doubled the density of bows and arrows, but it was a pity for these good horses.

As for the 200 crossbowmen with arms and crossbows, Liu Fan regarded him as a strange soldier who would not change in response to all changes.

The arm crossbow is a six-stone crossbow, and the arrows can be shot out with two stones, and there are a small number of people with superior arm strength, who can attract three stones, or even four stones, this kind of arm crossbow Liu Fan can lead all the six stones away, although it is a six-stone crossbow, but the six-stone bowstring will not be able to support.

There is no exact weight record of a stone in the Han Dynasty, because the stone is weighed according to the bucket, the bucket is the capacity unit, the weight of the weighing millet and rice is completely different, the same is a bucket, the rice is at least 20 catties heavier than the millet rice, a bucket is 2,000 milliliters, and a stone is 20,000 milliliters. If you use rice to calculate the weight of the stone, one stone is about 120 catties in the Han Dynasty.

Compared with the bow and the crossbow, it is much more difficult to open the bow, and Yue Fei, the famous anti-gold general in later generations, can open an eight-stone heavy crossbow, but can only open a three-hundred-pound iron tire bow.

Lu Bu's strength in this era is the best in the world, and he opens a three-stone bow. Huang Zhong's archery skills are unparalleled, using a two-stone iron-tired bow, while Tai Shici, who is also famous for archery, can only use a bow with one stone and six buckets.

Many people will think that they can open multiple bows with much strength, but in fact, this is not the case, pulling the bow is not to rely on one force to drop ten, but to rely on ten to drop one force. Unlike a crossbow, a bow has no focus, and in order to shoot the arrow smoothly, you must put all your mind on the arrow.

Bows and crossbows have their own strengths and weaknesses.

Bows and arrows are simple to make, can be mass-equipped with soldiers, are easy to carry, and can be loaded quickly, but the accuracy of shooting depends entirely on the skill level of the archers themselves.

The accuracy of crossbow shooting is high, the soldier can quickly master, it has huge strength, long range, the lethality rate of crossbow on the battlefield is very high, its disadvantage is that it is complicated to make, and the loading of arrows is slow, usually three arrows are shot with a bow, and the crossbow can shoot one.

As an important weapon for non-contact enemies on the battlefield of cold weapons, the bow and crossbow have played a very important role for thousands of years.

The Hun cavalry's eyes were red, and they charged to the city gate without their lives.

At a distance of fifty paces, Liu Fan ordered the archers to release their arrows.

The Huns followed one after another, the men and horses in front fell, and the cavalry in the rear stepped on their corpses and continued to run towards the city gate.

Some Hun knights fell to the ground and did not die, and were immediately trampled to death by the Hun cavalry behind, and then they also followed in the footsteps.

The Han army didn't care about the arrows, and the eight hundred archers kept pouring into the city gate, and after a while, the corpses of people and horses at the city gate piled up in a thick layer, and even the city gate was about to be blocked.

Countless Huns dismounted and dragged away the corpses of the people and horses blocking the door, and they had already heard the screams of the men and horses behind, and the seeping screams made them lose their souls.

"Sima, there are hundreds of horsemen of the Huns who are harassing the rear of our army with bows and arrows, please make a decision." A soldier ran over and reported to Liu Fan.

"Hundreds of horsemen, it is estimated that they are the scout troops of the Huns, and the grasshoppers shake the trees, and they don't measure themselves." Liu Fan ordered Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Zhou Cang beside him: "The Hun scouts are flexible in riding and shooting, and it is really unwise to send troops to chase after them, Yun Chang, Gongming, and Yuan Fu, I order the three of you to ride forward to pursue, and you must not leave any trouble."

The fire is soaring to the sky here, and it can be seen from a hundred miles away, and the Hun scouts are attracted by this firelight, and when they see the Han officers and soldiers surrounding the city gate, they know that it is bad.

"No!" Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Zhou Cang took a step forward and bowed their hands.

Guan Yu and the three of them took their weapons and climbed on horseback, charging towards the hundreds of Hun cavalry.

The Hun scouts hurriedly fled, they were not afraid of Guan Yu and the three, but that there were thousands of soldiers behind Guan Yu and the three.

In this way, a funny scene appeared, Guan Yu and the three of them chased after hundreds of Hun cavalry, they were afraid that there would be an ambush behind Guan Yu and the three of them, so they could only occasionally turn around and shoot an arrow.

The Hun cavalry ran westward, coupled with a lot of east wind, when they shot arrows, it was against the wind, which was not harmful to Guan Yu and others, not to mention that Guan Yu and others' eyesight could also resist the galloping bow and arrow.

After a while, the Hun cavalry saw that the four fields here were open, and there was no possibility of ambush at all. So they fell off the horse's head one after another, these three Han people were too rampant, they couldn't bear it.

Three horses against one hundred horses, it seems to be a disproportionate battle, but Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Zhou Cang are not afraid.

In an instant, the two sides collided together, and a Hun cavalry was directly cut off by Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue Knife, and he was unstoppable, and no one could stop him.

Xu Huang held a big axe in his hand, this big axe was not lighter than the Qinglong Yanyue knife, Xu Huang split the Hun cavalry in front of him with an axe, his arm strength was outstanding, but the moves were a little rough.

Zhou Cang held an eight-foot-long iron spear in his hand, and pierced the body of a Hun knight with one shot, and he picked up the body of the Hun knight, threw it out with all his might, and knocked the two Hun cavalrymen off their horses at once. Zhou Cang's style of play is completely based on brute force, and there are no moves at all. If there is a master of guns to teach him a few hands, Zhou Cang will definitely become a first-class general.
