Chapter 164: The Power of the Divine Arm Crossbow

The Liao army ran less than two or three hundred meters, and the cavalry of the patrol arrived, and these fleeing Liao troops were immediately overjoyed, and let the passage and let the patrol attack. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

But when the dense quadripartite saw the cavalry, they didn't say a word, and directly served with crossbows.

More than 4,000 strong crossbows were fired at the same time, and there were no dead ends at all, as long as they were within the range, that is, within 100 steps, all men and horses were killed, and no one could escape.

This is the power of crossbow arrows in a narrow space. If in an open area, the same number of strong crossbows, at most a few hundred people, is a big victory.

Eliminating these two patrols, the army continued to advance, but whenever it encountered a patrol, it was a volley, and no one resisted the might of the machine.

Outside, Li Zhu watched the last group of people enter the pass, and quietly ordered to call the guards around him to protect him and burn down the pass.

In the June weather, wood can catch a little spark, not to mention man-made arson. By the time the other three divisions found out, the pass was already burning, illuminating the entire Black River Valley.

Liu Yongzheng asked with a dark face, "What is Master Li doing here?" ”

Li Zhu wrote lightly: "Look at the burning pass, such a big flame, even if there are reinforcements outside, they can't get in." We don't have to worry about being attacked on our backs. In addition, war horses are naturally afraid of fire, and when they see the fire here, the possibility of a riot is small, and this thing kills two birds with one stone, isn't it beautiful! ”

After Li Zhu finished speaking, he walked briskly inside without looking back, and said in his heart: Brother Gongsun, I have done everything that should be done, and it will be up to you next.

The three of them looked at each other for a while, and they really couldn't think of any purpose for Li Zhu to do this.

Only then did the three of them put aside their distracting thoughts and walked towards the depths, saying that Li Zhu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so don't make any trouble at this time.

As for the crossbow machines at the pass, they were too bulky to be carried by the Quartet forces, so no one cared about their fate.

Of course, Li Zhu wouldn't tell them that this was another message to the Liao army twenty miles away!

The battlefield has advanced two or more roads, close to the Liao army camp, and the sergeants resting in it, although they have been alarmed, but the Quartet people and horses are advancing too fast, and it only took less than ten minutes to get here, and the soldiers have not yet put on their battle armor, not to mention the generals with more exquisite armor.

As soon as the Quartet forces arrived at the edge of the camp, Wang Qing's strong archers began to draw their bows and arrows again, but this time with rockets.

"Whoosh!"

In the frightened eyes of the Liao army, the burning rockets were fired into the camp, and the tents caught fire when they saw it, and the fire was even bigger than that at the pass.

There were unlucky people who ran directly to the Quartet and were hacked to death with random knives. I ran to the back with a clear mind, but before I could wake up, I was choked on the ground by the smoke from the burning tent, and my combat effectiveness was directly wasted.

Most of the tents are made of tough oiled paper, which makes it especially cool to live in in summer weather.

But when encountering the people and horses of the Quartet who deliberately set fire, it suddenly became a sharp weapon, and the breeze blowing from the mouth of the valley continued to blow the smoke into the valley, and the Liao army continued to fall, lying on the ground and choking to death.

And the Liao troops stationed on both sides of the valley finally arrived and joined the army. Of the 10,000 Liao troops, there are now less than 6,000 men and horses left, and in ten minutes, the Liao army has lost a small half of its army.

During the period when the military tent was burning, the Liao army integrated its troops, and the archers at the forefront were ready to shoot arrows at any time.

This fire comes quickly, and it is not slow to extinguish it. In less than ten minutes, it burned out.

When the four major army divisions saw the Liao army forming a military formation not far away, they didn't care at all, and commanded the army to begin to retreat slowly, because the two sides were too close to each other, only less than three hundred steps.

The Liao army also thought that the Quartet saw the might of the Liao army and wanted to retreat, and their morale was boosted, and under the reprimand of the generals, they rode their horses forward and pressed forward.

Qiao Daoqing sighed and said: "The Liao army was so brave and good at fighting a hundred years ago, I didn't expect that now I don't even dare to charge the most basic cavalry, what a bunch of waste!" ”

Li Zhu smiled lightly: "If we hadn't retreated, they would have been afraid of any conspiracy, and what would they not dare to charge!" ”

Deng Yuanjue laughed and said, "Let these barbarians see how powerful the Divine Arm Crossbow is!" ”

Four big men in the team came out of the team, two of them held two boxy crossbow frames, placed them on the ground, and firmly grasped the crossbow frames with both hands.

The two big men in the back skillfully set up the divine arm crossbow, and put on the crossbow arrows made of fine iron, palm-wide arrows, under the illumination of the firelight, flashing this blood-colored glow.

"Shoot the arrows."

Deng Yuanjue waved his big hand, and the crossbow mobile phone loosened, and the divine arm crossbow arrow, which was several circles thicker than the normal arrow feathers, came with the sound of the wind.

The strong archers at the forefront of the Liao army obviously didn't expect that the Quartet would come up with such a weapon of war.

You must know that the Divine Arm Crossbow is within 800 steps, known as penetrating five layers of heavy armor, and it is not as bulky as the bed Nu, and can be taken away at any time, and most importantly, due to the existence of the mechanism, the Divine Arm Crossbow is particularly simple to wind, and it only takes five seconds to get it, which is comparable to the deterrence of the cannon of later generations.

"Huh."

The first Liao army was pierced through the chest by the Divine Arm Crossbow, and the bowl-sized wound between the chests complained about the damage caused by the Divine Arm Crossbow.

The Liao army is now neatly riding on horses, and there is no heavy armor on the body, only leather armor, so the divine arm crossbow passed through the flesh * body of more than 20 Liao troops, advanced more than 200 meters, and then inserted it into the last unlucky guy and stopped.

The first time these two divine arm crossbows went into battle, they killed nearly fifty Liao troops, which can be described as fruitful results.

Li Zhu looked at the power of the Divine Arm Crossbow, and was ecstatic, there are still dozens of Divine Arm Crossbows in Liangshan! If all of this is taken out and equipped, the thousands of Liao troops in front of them will be the five scum of the war, and it will not be enough for Liangshan to fire a salvo.

The two crossbowmen didn't see through what Li Zhuyi was obscenity, and they concentrated on setting up arrows, releasing arrows, and shooting the Liao army as rabbits.

Wherever the crossbow bolts went, more than a dozen people would be killed. Leaving behind a ground of minced flesh, bloody.

The Liao army is completely stunned tonight, there is a strong crossbow when it is close, and there is a divine arm crossbow in the distance, lying in the groove, the emperor's Praetorian Guard is not so extravagant!

The generals of the Liao army are not fools, there is a horse ring behind them, and they can't run away, and now it seems that there is no other choice but to charge and surrender.

After glancing at the more than 6,000 soldiers, the generals of the Liao army still decided to break through, as long as they went out, they would definitely have a chance to turn over.

Loudly ordered the cavalry to prepare for the charge, and the strong archers retreated to their positions, because they were more than 500 meters away from the men and horses of the four directions, and the range of bows and arrows was not enough.

Li Zhu and the four of them saw that the Liao army began to brave the rain of crossbow arrows and arrows, changed their formation, and prepared to rush out forcibly.

Liu Yongzheng sneered: "It seems that these steppe barbarians have forgotten cavalry tactics and dare to brave thousands of strong crossbows to break through on horseback, I don't know if they are stupid or we are lucky!" (To be continued.) )
