"Ready!" As Gao Shun began to give orders, the standard-bearers beside him immediately began to wave the flags in their hands frantically, giving orders to more than a dozen crossbowmen phalanx. xshuotxt

Feeling the ground under his feet trembling slightly in response to the thunderous galloping sound of tens of thousands of horses' hooves, his eyes looked at the majestic cavalry cluster in front of him. There was no expression on Gao Shun's face, who was personally on the front line.

After silently calculating in his heart the charging speed of the Xiliang cavalry and the distance. Gao Shun, who had excellent eyes, stared closely at the big red stone painted red hundreds of cloths away. Gao Yang had told him that that position was the farthest effective killing distance of the chain crossbow.

When the first wave of Xiliang cavalry that came like a tide was about to rush over the red stone, Gao Shun, who looked solemn, suddenly opened his eyes and shouted, "One to seven formations, maximum range, round shooting, release arrows!" ”

'Woo Woo ~~~' A dense sound of breaking the air that made people listen to the sour mouth and nose sounded wildly. Looking from Lu Sheng's side, a dark cloud seemed to suddenly rise in the sky above the Gaoyang army formation on the opposite side!

Tens of thousands of crossbow arrows shot obliquely into the air with an indomitable ferocity, and then after crossing the sky, they fell heavily into the Xiliang cavalry cluster that entered the effective range at high speed with a sharp whistling sound.

The so-called rounds are divided into various forms, with three rows, five rows, seven rows, and so on. The entire crossbow phalanx was divided into several rows and fired sequentially in a predetermined order, striving to form an endless continuous attack. This suppressive attack is effective against cavalry charges.

'Puff~~~' Heavy armor-piercing arrows shot diagonally, stabbing fiercely at these old and weak who were used as cannon fodder and the war horses under their crotches. The sound of a sharp arrow piercing through the body instantly caused a huge blow in the charging cavalry group.

As the rain of arrows fell, the Xiliang army suddenly turned on their backs. The many cavalrymen didn't even have time to snort before they were trampled into flesh by the dense hooves of the horses that followed.

The military order Lu Sheng received was to make a surprise attack and create a passage for the soldiers behind him. However, this distance, which was nothing in the eyes of the cavalry in the past, was only a few hundred paces, and now it became a flesh and blood alley. The cavalry under his command seemed to have been combed through the fence, and a large number of them were missing.

By this time, Lu Sheng had no other choice. Turning back is definitely not a no-go. Not to mention the marching method or anything, they are now charging at high speed. Once you turn around at this time, you will inevitably have to pay a greater price. Lu Sheng thought about it slightly and understood, at this time of retreat, less than one-tenth of the people who could go back alive!

Come to think of it. The brave and bloody nature of the Xiliang man in Lu Sheng's heart exploded instantly. Look at the Gaoyang army in front of you, which is still firing crossbow arrows. Spat viciously, he suddenly reached out from the horse, and dodged the huge flag held by a strong guard behind him.

A tall and majestic war horse galloping rapidly, on the back of the horse stood proudly a brave general, holding a huge battle flag in both hands. In the rain of arrows in the sky, he swayed left and right, shouting and shouting, and his soldiers and horses followed the fierce general who rushed to the front.

Lu Sheng's move greatly inspired the Xiliang cavalry who were baptized by the rain of arrows. They had already received orders before they went out into battle, only forward, not backward. It will definitely be a death to turn back, and if you continue to rush forward, you may be able to break a way out. They already have no choice.

"Kill, !!" With Lu Sheng's heart-rending roar, the forward cavalry who had no way to retreat had red eyes and roared like a tsunami, "Kill~~~!" ”

"The momentum is enough, and the courage is commendable. It's just that. Gao Yang put down the binoculars in his hand, looked at the brave cavalry rushing in the distance, and shook his head slightly. Sighing lightly, he said with some regret, "I was born at the wrong time." ”

This Xiliang Iron Rider has done well enough. Unfortunately, they met an opponent that they could not defeat. In the face of revolutionary advanced weapons, the sergeant's bravery became extremely vulnerable.

Gao Shun's heart also admired the tenacity and courage of this cavalry, but he would never show his appreciation for the enemy when he was on the battlefield.

"The whole army, cover and shoot!" Gao Shun sighed lightly in his heart, and looked at the opposite cavalry cluster with a faint gloom in his eyes. However, he collected his mood in an instant, and indifferently gave the order to wipe out Lu Sheng and his cavalry.

When the number of crossbow arrows far more than before soared into the air, Lu Sheng, who was waving the big flag in his hand, closed his eyes in pain.

He originally thought that there was only one way out of death, and that was to charge at high speed, and quickly enter the army to destroy the crossbow array when the crossbowmen replaced their crossbow arrows. This is their only way to live.

However, when a large cloud of crossbow arrows rose from the opposite side again, Lu Sheng knew that everything was over. He's also a knowledgeable person, and he knows that this is a chain crossbow. One crossbow with multiple arrows, endlessly. When the number reaches a certain level, the dense rain of arrows is enough to prevent any enemy from getting forward. The more than 3,000 cavalry under his command were not enough to see in front of more than 10,000 hard crossbows.

Dong Min was frightened and took more than 5,000 elite soldiers to go around in a circle outside the range of crossbow arrows. Mingguang looked in horror at the corpses of people and war horses that were stacked all over the road in front of him, and he was speechless in shock.

With the last cavalry under Lu Sheng's command, he fell on the way to charge. There was silence throughout the battlefield. Whether it was the Western Liang Army or the Kwantung Coalition Army, even the soldiers and horses under Gao Yang's command were all shocked by this shocking scene.

More than 3,000 cavalry who charged at high speed were finally annihilated by hundreds of thousands of arrows. The farthest one was a hundred paces away from the crossbowmen under Gao Yang's command. These are not homeless people who can't eat, these are 3,000 cavalry!

As a nobleman in the army in the era of cold weapons, cavalry has a very high status among the farming nations, and it is impossible to become a cavalry without excellent skills.

More than 3,000 cavalrymen were shot in such a very short period of time, which made everyone feel unbelievable.

After a moment of coldness, the entire battlefield came alive again with the sound of a low horn.

Everyone looked at the source of the horn in surprise, and Gao Yang's handsome flag moved forward!

It will be the courage of soldiers!

As the representative of Gao Yang, the handsome flag moves forward, which means that the entire military formation must move forward! This is an iron law in the army, and no one dares to disobey it. Even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of you.

Gao Shun looked back in slight surprise and looked back at the tall handsome banner that was slowly moving forward under the escort of a large number of cavalry. After groaning slightly, he immediately ordered, "Change into crossbow arrows and move forward!" ”

None of the leaders of the Western Liang Army thought that Gao Yang would dare to leave the protection of the strong city wall behind him with no more than 30,000 soldiers and horses, and take the initiative to attack the Western Liang Army.

After a moment of silence, Guo Yan suddenly sneered and said slowly, "This is really, too contemptible." ”

In a word, the momentum of the military leaders who were originally a little demoralized next to them was different in an instant.

The people of the military in these times still value their reputation very much. It's not a big deal to lose the battle, no one dares to say that they can win every battle, and there is only one champion in the Han Dynasty. However, if it is humiliated by the red fruit, it is a different matter.

There are many historical records that whoever was scolded and humiliated by the enemy army under the city or in front of the battle, rode out to fight, and finally died in battle. The generals of this era could accept death in battle, but few would accept being humiliated and hiding like a shrunken turtle.

Although shocked by the huge power of the bow and crossbow, the Xiliang army had only lost more than 3,000 cavalry in the previous period, and they were not elite soldiers. For the Xiliang Legion, which has a large number of soldiers and still has more than 100,000 people who control the strings at this moment, this is not an unacceptable loss.

The military leaders looked at each other, and they all read their determination in each other's eyes. Be sure to teach Gao Zihou a profound lesson!

Why did Gao Yang take the risk of taking the initiative to attack the more powerful Xiliang Army with weak soldiers? The answer is that Gao Yang wants to end the internal war as soon as possible!

Whether it is the Xiliang Army or the Kwantung Coalition Army, the main body is still dominated by Han Chinese. These armies are the essence of the Han Empire, and in this way, because the ambitions of those military leaders and princes were lost in the hands of their own people, which was unacceptable to Gao Yang.

After reopening the space-time channel, Gao Yang's eyes were already outside the Han Empire. The whole planet is his hunting ground!

He wants to integrate the forces of the entire empire as soon as possible and go all out to fight abroad. Then the first thing to do is to settle the Kwantung Coalition Army and the Xiliang Army outside Luoyang City. These two forces were the largest opposition forces in the Han Empire at this time.

Gao Yang had no interest or time to guard Luoyang City and die with them. Sit and watch these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses toss the Sili area, the essence of the Han Empire, into ruins. If you want to end all this as soon as possible, you can only take the initiative to attack and completely defeat the enemy army.

As for the Xiliang Legion, which dared to take the initiative to attack more than 100,000 people with only 30,000 soldiers in his hands, he was not worried that the Kwantung Coalition Army would stick a knife in the back. Gao Yang has confidence in his heart.

Needless to say, the Kwantung Coalition Army, although it seemed to be strong, was a loose alliance of more than a dozen large and small warlords.

It is useless for this kind of army with uneven hearts to come less, and there will inevitably be disputes when there are too many of them. How strong the combat effectiveness of the soldiers and horses under Gao Yang's command was, these princes had already seen it before the Tiger Prison Pass.

At this time, when this image of troubled times has been revealed, no one will sacrifice their precious troops in vain. In troubled times, there are soldiers to have everything.

Once the princes lose their soldiers and horses in their hands, they will either withdraw from the battlefield in disgrace, or they will be defeated and killed! In this kind of matter that is related to the life of the family, who dares to casually go to the moth to put out the fire?

They have all seen Gao Yang's prestige and strength! To be continued. 118
