371, like flowing water hitting a chime
Liu Biao directly ordered two generals and gave them 3,000 soldiers and horses to destroy Zhu Wei's improvised siege mobile arrow tower.
The two named generals, Liu Biao, although they were not sure in their hearts, naturally did not dare to disobey at this time, so they could only agree to each other, and then led the military order to go down to the city to order troops.
But in their hearts, they still sighed in unison, it seems that this time the battle is more auspicious.
In a short time, these two generals, Liu Biao, led 3,000 soldiers, opened the city gate, lowered the drawbridge, and rushed to the place where the improvised siege car frame stood.
But Tai Shi Ci stood on the arrow platform of the rushing car, and naturally discovered this situation at the first time, so he ordered Bao Long, who was waiting for battle, with three thousand crossbowmen and the remaining three thousand sword and shield men, to set up a defensive position in front of these siege vehicles.
At the same time, Tai Shici also sent an order, so that Chen Ying, who was attacking the city with 5,000 swords and shields in front, also came back to encircle and annihilate this Liu Biao soldiers who dared to go out of the city.
Anyway, the military order Tai Shici got this time was only a tentative siege of the city, trying to kill and injure the living forces on Liu Biao's side, so Tai Shici didn't expect to really attack Yicheng at once.
Now that Liu Biao's soldiers took the initiative to go out of the city to seek death, he naturally had to smile and accept it, otherwise wouldn't it be a waste of Liu Biao's kindness.
For a while, on the battlefield outside Yicheng, there was a new scene of change.
The three thousand Liu Biao soldiers who rushed out of Yicheng rushed to the more than ten siege vehicles that stood about 100 steps away from the city gate, and before these siege vehicles, Bao Long had already led the army to set up a protective formation.
Under the protection of the defensive formation formed by the sword and shield men in front, three thousand crossbowmen threw forward in batches and rounds of crossbow arrows.
"Bang bang bang...... Whoosh ......"
With the vibration of the crossbow arrows, the crossbow arrows flew in a parabolic manner over the sword and shield of their own side lined up in front of them, and then flew forward to a certain height, and fell down with gravity on the heads of the three thousand Liu Biao soldiers who rushed out.
Soon, these crossbow arrows were like rain, so that at least two or three hundred of Liu Biao's soldiers who rushed over intensively were hit by arrows, and the dead corpses and wounded soldiers inevitably stayed in place.
Three thousand crossbowmen can throw a thousand crossbow arrows in each round, and when the first round of crossbow arrows has not fallen, the second round of one thousand crossbow arrows has already flown into the air, and when the first round of crossbow arrows fell into Liu Biaobing's stroke, the third round of crossbow arrows flew into the air again.
Then the crossbow archers in the first round of archery had already reloaded their crossbow arrows and could shoot them again, so the rounds of crossbow arrows were separated by a few breaths at most, and then they followed the movement of those Liu Biao's soldiers in batches and fell on top of their heads.
This inevitably makes the crossbow arrows like a torrential rain, constantly washing the Liu Biao soldiers who rushed over, and every time they can make the Liu Biao soldiers who rushed to kill fall a group of people.
"Kill! Kill! ”
The two Liu Biao generals who commanded the three thousand Liu Biao soldiers had no other thoughts at this time, but just shouted in their mouths, commanding the soldiers to rush forward quickly and kill, they also knew that they could only resist the crossbow arrows during this time, but only a distance of more than 100 steps, they could still rush over.
The three thousand Liu Biao soldiers are basically sword and shield hands, so these soldiers have protected the double-arc hand shield of their left hand above their heads, protecting the vital positions on their bodies, and charging forward quickly, even if their companions are shot by arrows from time to time, they dare not stop.
In a short time, these Liu Biao soldiers were only a dozen steps away from Bao Long's defensive army formation with three thousand swords and shields.
Bao Long stood behind the military formation composed of sword and shield hands, looking at Liu Biao's soldiers who rushed over, but he only sneered at the corner of his mouth, and just calmly ordered the three thousand crossbowmen to slowly adjust the shooting distance of the crossbow arrows, and continued to shoot crossbow arrows in the direction of Liu Biao's soldiers.
In this way, the three thousand crossbowmen continuously shot Liu Biao's soldiers who rushed up with crossbow arrows, so that Liu Biao's soldiers were on the way to charge, and from time to time someone was hit by an arrow and fell to the ground.
By the time these 3,000 Liu Biao soldiers rushed to the front of the military formation formed by the sword and shield men of the Divine Arrow Battalion, more than 1,000 people had already fallen, and countless others were injured.
The rest of the people, under the urging of the two generals of Liu Biao, rushed towards the sword and shield hand army in a chaotic manner, trying to break through the sword and shield hand army formation, so that the two armies fell into close combat and fighting, so as not to withstand the air attack of crossbow arrows.
The battlefield where the two sides are located is actually within the attack range of the archers defending on the city wall.
But now the defenders on the city wall are all suppressed by the archers on the arrow platform that moves like a well, so they can only watch their own soldiers and Zhu Wei's soldiers fight together, but they can't give much bow and arrow support.
Of course, the fight in the military formation is not a street fight, as soon as the two sides come into contact, they will fall into a scuffle, and everyone will be mixed together.
In order to prevent Liu Biao's soldiers from approaching the improvised mobile siege vehicles and causing damage to these mobile vehicles, Bao Long with swords, shields, and crossbowmen stood in front of these siege vehicles like high-rise walls.
And the three thousand divine arrow battalion sword and shield men at the front cooperated with each other to form a dense wall of human shields.
Those Liu Biao's soldiers who rushed up could only rush hard against the human shield wall composed of these sword and shield hands, trying to break through a gap in the human shield wall and break up these blocking sword and shield hands, so that they could have a chance to get close to the siege and rush to the car.
However, these Liu Biao soldiers have lost some courage by the three thousand crossbow archers on the side of the Divine Arrow Battalion from the time they left the city to the present, and they have suffered heavy casualties.
And the crossbow archers standing behind these sword and shield bearers kept throwing crossbow arrows forward, so that Liu Biao's soldiers had to be careful of the crossbow arrows falling on their heads while rushing to kill.
"Kill! Uh......", "Rush! Ah......h
"Hold on! Stab! Stab! Obstruct! ”
Under the urging of the two Liu Biao generals, the soldiers of Liu Biao who rushed over rushed towards the military formation composed of three thousand divine arrow battalion swords and shields, but they couldn't rush at all.
The sword and shield men of the 3,000 Divine Arrow Battalion are also well-trained elites, and through the cooperation of everyone, they can work together to unload the collision of Liu Biao's soldiers, and they can use the double-arc hand shield of their left hand to cooperate with each other to block the ring head knife that Liu Biao's soldiers slashed over, and the ring head knife in their right hand is even more unceremoniously waiting for the opportunity to backstab and kill the enemy who rushed up.
Although in the forefront of the collision and fighting between the two sides, there were certain casualties on both sides.
But it is obvious that there are more casualties among the soldiers on Liu Biao's side, and as for the sword and shield hands on the side of the Divine Arrow Battalion, even if there is some damage, someone will soon replace the wounded, so that the entire military formation is still like a stone, and it has not been shaken at all......
