Chapter 326: Battle of Iron Mountain (21)
The Turks began to blow their horns, indicating that their great army was about to attack. And this may be the last battle this time, Li Junxian and they can only fight for a glimmer of life by withstanding Jieli's attack. And if you can't stand it, it's just a dead end. Therefore, it cannot be overstated, and it must be persistent. The Turks currently only have 60,000, and it is impossible to send them all at once, so Li Junxian's pressure on them is still not so great.
"Turkic warriors, let's go fight to the death with the Han people, and tell them that the Han people are definitely not a bad breed!" The Turkic general shouted.
"Woo woo woo ......" the Turks let out a strange cry again.
"Kill!" The Turks began to shout.
And Li Junxian looked at the Turks besieging him on three sides, and the command flag in his hand began to prepare to command the mobilization of troops. In fact, there is nothing to command, that is, relying on crossbows on three sides to the Turkic people who seem to have an innumerable number of opponents, that is, relying on this method. At most, it is supported by artillery.
"Attack!" The Turkic general shouted.
"Rush!" The Turks shouted.
"Wind, aim, get ready to shoot!" Li Junxian began to give orders for the soldiers to prepare to shoot.
"Dada......"
The Turks heard the terrifying sound of iron hooves, apparently tens of thousands of cavalry riding war horses, galloping through the snow. And these war horses advanced rapidly, rushing towards Li Junxian and them with the Turks on horseback. And these horses were murderous, as if they were doing a final decisive battle, and they all rushed forward with good courage, but no one knew their outcome. These soldiers may be expendable on the battlefield and used as cannon fodder.
A thousand meters!
Eight hundred meters!
Five hundred meters!
Four hundred meters!
"Shoot the arrows!" Li Junxian shouted.
"Whoosh whoosh......" The troops on three sides began to fire arrows.
Li Junxian didn't dare to let the enemy release arrows when he put it dozens of meters away from him this time, because there were too many enemies this time, more than 20,000 people. And his own crossbow soldiers were less than 10,000 people, so they didn't dare to put them down tens of meters. Once they were close to the Turkic cavalry, they feared that their crossbowmen would be slaughtered.
"Ahhhhh......h
"Turkic warriors. Keep rushing! The Turkic general shouted.
"Keep firing the arrows at me!" Li Junxian shouted.
"Whoosh...... The soldiers of the special guard continued to fire arrows, as if to shoot all the Turks to death.
"Ahhh......h
However, although the Turks were shot and killed, they still charged forward, and did not dare to retreat at all. Because this time, Jieli Khan gave a death order, and Li Junxian's camp must be broken down, so that it can be regarded as a success. If it can't be broken, it's a failure. And all kinds of Turkic officers were supervising the war among the Turks, and any timid Turkic soldiers were to be beheaded. That's why these Turks are so brave and brave to charge. If it's usual. They wouldn't brave this rain of arrows at all.
But the Turks also wondered how the Han people's bows and crossbows were so powerful, and the arrows seemed to rain. The scale of such a large arrow made the Turks shudder. Moreover, those Han soldiers seemed to have sufficient physical strength, and they had already shot dozens of arrows in a row, but their physical strength did not seem to have consumed much.
And the Turks did not know that this was the effect of the pulley crossbow. The pulley crossbow does not consume less physical strength at all, so it can increase the endurance of soldiers. As long as the arrows are not used up, the soldier's physical strength is generally not a problem. This is the continuous development of the science of civilization. And the barbaric nomads continued to lag behind, and were finally defeated by science.
"General, we have already suffered five or six thousand casualties. The rain of arrows of the Han people is so fierce that we can't rush through it at all! A Turkic general shouted.
"If you can't rush, you have to rush. If we can't get through, then we will all be questioned by the Khan. Tell the Turkic warriors that if they dare to retreat without permission, then we must correct the Dharma on the spot. The Turkic general shouted.
And Li Junxian looked at the Turks who had already suffered five or six thousand casualties, and there were probably more than 10,000 in the three directions. And none of these Turks retreated. This has to be said to be a miracle! Li Junxian's brows furrowed, he obviously noticed that there seemed to be someone among those Turks who was maintaining military discipline.
"General Li, this is the intelligence of the reconnaissance staff officer on the hot air balloon." A reconnaissance staff officer said.
Li Junxian opened the information and looked at it. He said: "I see, sure enough, someone is maintaining military discipline in the Turkic army. ”
"Marksman, go and snipe all those who maintain military discipline among the Turks!" Li Junxian shouted.
After receiving Li Junxian's order, those sharpshooters quickly went to the mountain behind them and looked for the commanding heights. The bows and crossbows in their hands are all special, and their range and power are more than twice as strong as those of other bows and crossbows, reaching a range of 800 meters. However, this sniper crossbow is also a lot bigger, so this one is also a very huge thing.
The snipers set up their crossbows on the rocks and aimed them with their scopes. These scopes are made from high-definition crystals, which are very costly. As for the glass, Li Junxian is actually still developing it at present, and has not made it out. In this era, glass was called glass, a much more valuable metal than crystal, and it was also mixed with other colors. So Li Junxian couldn't, so he had to use transparent crystal to make the scope of this sniper crossbow.
"Everyone, our target is the Turks who are supervising the battle on the battlefield, and we will shoot them all to death, so that the Turks will not be able to withstand the pressure and retreat." The captain of the sniper squad shouted.
"Understood!" Dozens of snipers answered.
And on the battlefield, many Turks were supervising the war.
"Hurry up and charge me! Or die! The Turkic warlords shouted.
"Thorn!"
The Turkic warlords killed a Turk who wanted to retreat because of their timidity, and the other Turks saw this and had no choice but to charge. Anyway, retreating now is death, and charging is also death, since this is the case, it is better to charge and fight, so maybe it is possible to win a way to live!
"Rush! Rush me! Whoever dares to retreat will die! The Turkic warlords shouted.
Unbeknownst to the Officers, someone with a high-precision sniper crossbow was aimed at them in the distance. When the cross in the scope was aimed at the chests of the Turkic overseers, the sniper gently pulled the trigger. (To be continued......)
