Although the Han army had a small number of carriages around the periphery, the Wuhuan cavalry who rushed through the rain of arrows of the Han army in Liaodong still had a fine light in their eyes, and they seemed to have seen a large-scale massacre imminent. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Crossbowmen ready!" The corners of Huang Xu's mouth rose in the formation, and he calmly gave an order.

The distance of more than a hundred steps is not worth mentioning to the cavalry, even if the ground under their feet is muddy, the Wuhuan cavalry still rushes with all their strength, wanting to vent all the anger of the failure of the last charge.

"Repeater shot!" Looking at the excited expression of the Wuhuan cavalry, Huang Xu was extremely excited to give the order. Although I have done countless test launches before, this is the first time in actual combat!

"Bang bang bang, crunch crunch!" A strange sound suddenly came from the Liaodong infantry battle array.

Before the Wuhuan cavalry who rushed to the forefront could react, even the men and horses were shot into a large area, and they all died tragically, almost all of them were shot into hedgehogs. The repeater crossbow was designed by Huo Yu personally supervising the craftsman's workshop, and after countless tests, modifications, tests, and modifications, Ma Jun almost racked his brains to barely meet Huo Yu's requirements.

Ten consecutive shots, shooting in sections, plus the archers' targeted clearance, the Wuhuan cavalry, who had finally rushed through the rain of arrows, was once again blocked fifty paces away, and the entire charging formation was chaotic. The cavalry in front wanted to retreat, and the cavalry in the back wanted to charge, and for a time the whole battlefield screamed.

20,000 cavalry against 5,000 foot soldiers, so far the Wuhuan cavalry has not been close, Qiu Liju's heart is dripping blood. Taton, who had suffered a loss, was lucky, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he directly issued an order to retreat, and the commander on the other side was already dead and could not die anymore, and his whole body was full of crossbow arrows and fell in a pool of muddy blood.

"Woo woo~~" Qiu Liju's guards blew the horn of retreat, and the Wuhuan cavalry once again left the corpse on the ground and slowly retreated. However, the Han army did not stop there, and the cavalry that came out of the range of the crossbow was still constantly named by the archers of the Han army.

"King, don't the Han people's arrows need money?" Looking at the Wuhuan warriors who returned in embarrassment, another captain said casually.

"Humph! The Han people are as cunning as foxes, and the terrain is unfavorable to me, so I ordered the whole army to retreat! Qiu Liju almost gritted his teeth and gave the order.

Looking at the Wuhuan cavalry slowly retreating, the Liaodong Army's infantry formation erupted in earth-shattering cheers! However, Huang Xu always kept a clear head, and the details of his own main bus generation must be done well, otherwise it will be difficult for Qiu Liju, the old fox, to take the bait.

"Order, immediately collect arrows and crossbows on the battlefield!" Another general order was issued quickly.

A little, a small number of Han troops quickly rushed out of the battle formation, and began to collect arrows and crossbow arrows that were shot, and then easily mended the wounded Wuhuan soldiers who had not completely died. Qiu Liju, who was in the distance, looked coldly at the movements of the Han army on the battlefield, and many of his generals were already angry and wanted to ask for their lives to fight again!

But Qiu Liju turned his horse's head without saying a word and headed towards the place where he was encamped. The Han army's approach can only show one problem, that is, excessive consumption! As the saying goes, eating a trench grows a wisdom, Qiu Liju firmly believes that the supplies brought by this group of Han troops are limited, and sooner or later they will all fall into their own hands.

In a dense forest to the east of Liucheng, Liao Hua and the remaining Tianyu guards gathered here. Although there were people left behind in White Wolf Mountain, they were only responsible for picking up Huang Xu and his party, so there was only one team of five people left behind. Together with the team leading the way, the remaining 180 people are all here.

A carving in the sky caught Liao Hua's attention, and a moment later a Sky Feather Guard handed Liao Hua the secret letter. Speaking of this secret letter, Huo Yu wasted a lot of effort at the beginning, and the final version was composed of Arabic numerals. Open the secret letter, an Arabic numeral appeared in front of him, all the soldiers of Tianyu Wei have studied, but only Liao Hua and his four team commanders can read the secret letter.

"The lord strictly ordered me to wait for a hidden rest!" After reading the secret letter, Liao Hua said with a slight disappointment.

In the southwest of Liucheng, Huang Xu took advantage of the terrain to make Qiu Liju suffer a loss. It was getting late, and after a short period of cleaning up the battlefield, the infantry soldiers of Liaodong began to camp in place, and the Wuhuan scouts not far away were finally relieved.

In the Wuhuan camp, Qiu Liju's Chinese army tent was brightly lit. In the battle during the day, the Wuhuan cavalry lost as many as eight thousand, which Qiu Liju never expected. The armor-piercing arrows equipped by the Liaodong Han Army exerted great power, which was a nightmare for the Wuhuan people who lacked armor protection.

Stepping was quite smart, and did not charge ahead, and even then was shot in the left arm by a crossbow. Qiu Liju, who saw the wound, was worried, if it weren't for his skillful horsemanship, I am afraid that he would not be able to come back today.

"Father Khan, the crossbow machine of the Han army is too powerful, isn't it a rhubarb crossbow?" While letting the guards deal with the wounds, he asked in pain.

"The cavalry charged, the archers fired three arrows, and the crossbowmen fired up to two arrows. In today's battle, the Han army's arrows rained non-stop, which was difficult to understand. In this king's view, the number of arrows and crossbow arrows must not be much! Tomorrow, I will follow the example of the Han army and consume it in the shield array! Qiu Liju shook his head and said.

After finishing speaking, Qiu Liju casually picked up the crossbow bolt taken from Badun's arm and carefully observed it. The arrows were so fine that Qiu Liju had to nod and praise. Since ancient times, the Han people have been ahead of the nomadic tribes on the steppe in terms of technology.

"Shh Qiu Liju gasped when he thought of this, and then turned his head to the outside of the tent and said, "Come on, quickly order the scouts to investigate the whereabouts of the Liaodong cavalry overnight." Ordered Lou Ban to defend Liucheng strictly! ”

The guards took the order and left, and Qiu Liju's momentary sobriety made him realize that this might be a trap for the Han army.

There was nothing to say all night, and Qiu Liju, who was sleeping the next day, was woken up by the guards. The scouts returned, and the Han infantry retreated overnight, leaving an empty camp.

"Escape?" Qiu Liju's brain gave the answer immediately.

After mobilizing people and horses and galloping all the way, after arriving at the Han army camp, Qiu Liju immediately ordered someone to check the number of stoves of the Han army. I don't know if I don't count, but I'm shocked when I count it! There were two thousand stoves for five thousand foot soldiers, and Qiu Liju fell into deep thought in the face of such an unreasonable number.

After a while, Qiu Liju couldn't stop laughing, and said in his heart: "The Han people are really cunning! ”

"Order the scouts to immediately find out where the Han army is going!" Qiu Liju put away his smile and said with a straight face.

At this moment, Huang Xu had already led 5,000 foot soldiers all the way towards White Wolf Mountain, and on the way to the march, he discarded some military resources from time to time according to Guo Jia's suggestion to attract the attention of the Wuhuan scouts. In fact, the Wuhuan people are much more familiar with the surrounding area than the Liaodong Army, but Huang Xu's practice is just to disturb Qiu Liju's judgment. As the saying goes, if you are reluctant to let a child trap a wolf, not to mention that Qiu Liju is still a group of wolves!
