These nomadic cavalry deserved to have grown up on horseback since childhood, their control of war horses is outstanding, as they get closer and closer to Liu Xin's military formation, the speed of the war horses galloping is getting faster and faster, and the cavalry group is gradually dispersed.

Liu Xin, who stood under the commander of the Chinese army, had a sad face, he had never seen so many cavalry galloping scenes, that feeling was not just shocked two words can be described, the enemy's cavalry was still some distance away from here, but the vibration of the earth had made him secretly frightened, under the trampling of the horse's hooves, snowflakes splashed, and the momentum like a mountain was overwhelming.

Liu Xin couldn't help but look at the soldiers around him worriedly, these young soldiers were still standing like iron, but Liu Xin could feel that everyone's mood would be as nervous as him, and he couldn't help but wonder if his decision was wrong,

Indeed, the hearts of the Han soldiers in the formation were very nervous, and many of their palms were already full of sweat, but none of them thought of taking even half a step back, they stood there firmly, and they had already put life and death aside.

Seeing that the cavalry of the brigade was getting closer and closer, Wen Ping raised the red order flag in his hand high, and waved it vigorously, and there was a loud "boom" sound from the rear of the military formation, which was the sound of the trebuchet.

In the two battles of attacking the city and Yique Pass, the trebuchet has played a vital role, the research institute has made some improvements according to the feedback from the soldiers in use, the current trebuchet not only has a longer range, but also more convenient and flexible, the trebuchet that used to take twenty people to make the trebuchet now only needs ten people to easily load and launch, not only that, the "ammunition" used by the trebuchet is also specially equipped, instead of just taking a stone can be put on the trebuchet and launching, The advantage of this is that it can facilitate the soldier to better control the "impact point", and will not lose the trebuchet due to the difference in the size and weight of the stone, there are two kinds of "ammunition", one is the stone bullet used to attack the city wall, and the other is the crockpot bullet specially developed to deal with it,

Now it is this kind of crockpot bomb that is launched, the so-called crockpot bomb, as the name suggests, is a kind of crockpot, but there are many Zama nails in this crockpot, when the crockpot is smashed on the ground and shattered, the Zama nails in the crockpot will also be scattered everywhere, and the trebuchet at this time has played a role similar to the minelaying car of later generations.

Because the first materials transported from the rear were mainly grain and grass, a large number of equipment had not yet arrived, and there were not many trebuchets in the army, only a hundred, and only a hundred crockpot bullets could be thrown out at a time, and the hundred black crockpot bullets fell from the sky and fell in the cavalry group, and some smashed directly on the head of the cavalry, although it was only a crockpot, but the momentum when it fell from mid-air was enough to make people's heads bloom, and some fell on the snow, and soon fell into the snow, no matter where it fell, for so many cavalry, like throwing a pebble into the sea, which can only stir up a small ripple, and soon calm again,

The soldiers who controlled the trebuchet did not observe the effect of the crockpot bombs, they had already been well trained, and after the completion of the first round of firing, they immediately adjusted the range and prepared for the next round of launches, but Liu Xin always paid attention to the front, and the first round of crockpot bombs did not make the enemy soldiers turn over on their backs as expected, and he saw the flying snow on the ground stirred up by the horses' hooves, and suddenly understood, and said loudly: "Quick, the second round of stone bullets." ”

Yes, there is a thick layer of snow on the ground, and the crockpot bullets may not break if they fall on the snow, and the zama nails inside will not come out, so what to use to stab the horse's hooves, and even if the crockpot is broken, the zama nails will sink into the snow and lose their original power.

As the red order flag in Wen Ping's hand waved again, after another loud "boom" sound, a hundred "stone bullets" flew over Liu Xin's head with a roar, and smashed heavily in the cavalry group, the power of this launch was obviously much greater than just now, although the area of the blow was limited, but the shock brought by the large and heavy stone bullets falling from the sky was no worse than the amazing scene brought by hundreds of thousands of cavalry assault together, those nomadic cavalry had never encountered this situation, They were worried about whether the boulder falling from the world would hit them, and the momentum of the impact was stagnant, but it was only a stagnation, and the nomadic cavalry soon let out all kinds of strange screams and continued to move forward bravely.

Liu Xin knew that the heavy snow had helped the enemy, and the trebuchet and the Zama nail would not play much role this time, and they could no longer do useless work here, so he decisively ordered the stone thrower to be withdrawn to the camp and ordered the crossbowmen to prepare,

Responsible for commanding the crossbowmen is Xu Huang, seeing that the cavalry has entered the range of the strong crossbow, he waved the orange flag in his hand, the military formation made a loud "bang", ten thousand crossbows fired together, the whole sky was dark, only to hear the "whoosh" sound endlessly, the nomadic cavalry in the full gallop fell to the ground, the crossbow not only has a long range, but also the power is extremely large, some crossbow arrows even penetrate through the body of the riders, directly shoot the war horse behind them to the ground,

The cavalry's offensive was obviously blocked, and the cavalry behind crashed directly into the cavalry that fell in front, and the rider on the horse would accidentally fall on his horse, and soon be trampled into flesh in the rolling torrent.

The launch of the crossbow requires a lot of strength, after three times in a row, the crossbowman is unable to continue firing, and needs to rest for a period of time to continue firing, and this time is the best time for the cavalry to attack, these nomadic cavalry often harass the border of the Han Dynasty, familiar with the power of the Han army's crossbow, and is not very afraid, but this time the Han army encountered is different, they shoot a lot of crossbow arrows, and shoot very far, causing them much more damage than usual, but, The nomadic cavalry knows their situation very well, they only rush forward with one blow, and then rush forward, there is no room to retreat at all, otherwise they will be smashed to pieces by the horses behind them without the enemy's hands, and now the three rounds of crossbow arrows have passed, it is the best time for them to charge, these nomadic cavalry have seized this opportunity well, and the speed of the cavalry group's impact has increased significantly,

However, the nomadic cavalry miscalculated this time, and they were greeted by wave after wave of crossbow arrows, because the treadmill crossbow used by Liu Xin's army had been greatly improved, and a crossbowman could easily carry out five consecutive rounds of fire, rushing through a round of crossbow arrows, the sky finally calmed down, neither stones fell, nor crossbow arrows were fired, and the relieved nomadic cavalry increased their speed again, many people had already taken off their bows and arrows, and they could shoot at the enemy's archers once again after half the impact,

Xu Huang looked behind him, the crossbowmen were indeed unable to carry out the sixth round of firing, they needed to rest now, so he waved another yellow flag, the crossbowmen stepped back, and the archers stepped forward quickly, "hum", this is the sound of tens of thousands of bowstrings together, tens of thousands of feather arrows broke through the air, ruthlessly harvesting the lives of the nomadic cavalry, and at this time, the military array laid by Liu Xin was still far away from the range of the nomadic cavalry,

Beigong Boyu and Liu Bao were in the rear of the army, watching their clansmen fall to the ground one after another, they couldn't help but feel a little worried, they were all ruthless people, even if they treated their own clansmen, they would never be soft-hearted, but this time was different, seeing that their subordinates were shot into hedgehogs before they rushed to the front of the formation, and the losses were very large, even these two hard-hearted people were a little moved, this time, they almost brought out half of the young and strong men in the clan, if the whole army was destroyed, It will be a heavy blow to the entire clan,

However, the cavalry's attack cannot be stopped casually, otherwise it will lose the formation of the impact, and the cavalry who can't move may not be half as effective as the infantry, although they grew up on horseback and are proficient in horsemanship, but the main method of combat is still riding and shooting, although they can also wield a scimitar on a horse, but the power is much worse than that of riding and shooting,

The nomadic cavalry's riding and archery ability is really not ordinary, although there are no stirrups, although the dense arrow rain sent out by the strong bow and crossbow, the nomadic cavalry still rushed to their bow and arrow range, one after another with bows and arrows, and rode and shot, began to carry out a desperate counterattack, arrows and arrows, whether in the cavalry or in the infantry formation, there are constantly people who fall to the ground with arrows, and the screams before dying are endless,

These nomadic cavalry did not rush the infantry formation in front of them, and when they were only a stone's throw away from the infantry formation, the whole cavalry group suddenly split to both sides, they still insisted on the tactics of mounted archery, and did not want to engage the infantry.

At this time, a black flag was raised in the infantry formation, it was Liu Xin's handsome flag, with the raising of this handsome flag, the infantry formation suddenly moved, and they actually took the initiative to meet the nomadic cavalry, this situation has never appeared in the past battle, and the nomadic cavalry who were moving in a roundabout way to both sides, their flanks were suddenly exposed in front of the infantry,

Under the attack of stones and arrow rain, the nomadic cavalry who can still maintain the same formation suddenly has a little panic, some people want to turn the horse's head, use the power of the horse to impact the infantry formation, some people want to quickly move to the sides, and the infantry distance, and then a round of cavalry shooting, the brigade of cavalry in the process of movement is most afraid of no clear purpose, although with superb horsemanship, the cavalry will not collide with each other, but the movements are obviously paused, the speed is inevitably slowed down, For cavalry, speed is also an important part of combat effectiveness, and slow speed is sometimes fatal to cavalry.

And now, these nomadic cavalry made a fatal mistake, they slowed down, and at the same time as these nomadic cavalry slowed down, the speed of the Han infantry suddenly accelerated, and soon the infantry formation and the cavalry group collided fiercely,
