The first day of fighting ended with both sides resting. And Li Junxian's troops needed to rest because they were tired. And the Turks also had to rest and restore their morale. And Li Junxian asked the reconnaissance staff officer on the hot air balloon to be responsible for reconnaissance and monitoring the Turkic attack, while Li Junxian let the other troops rest. Because Li Junxian trained more than just an emergency assembly, even if the Turks had any action, they could rise up in time to meet the battle at any time. However, the Turks did not come to attack that night, apparently knowing about the existence of the hot air balloon. If you don't find a way to crack this hot air balloon, you can't do a sneak attack.

The next day, the battle began, but this time it looked like the Turks had a new twist.

"General Li, according to the report of the reconnaissance staff officer on the hot air balloon, this time the Turks have mobilized a large number of archers in the rear, and I don't know what they want to do." Said a staff officer under a hot air balloon.

Li Junxian was also a little surprised when he heard this, and thought to himself: "Archer? What do they want to do? ”

The answer was not long in coming, though. A row of shield walls came in front of those archers, and then the archers prepared in the back. The shield wall in front is enough to cover those archers, so it should be okay for archers to shoot arrows in the back. It's really embarrassing for these Turks, who want to dismount and become infantry archers.

Soon, several archers among the Turks immediately raised their longbows and aimed them at Li Junxian's special guards and fired arrows?

Several Turkic arrows were launched from the hands of the Turks, then into the sky, and finally began to descend according to the gravitational pull of the earth, and finally plunged into the soil of the steppe.

"General Li, these arrows can't do anything to us!" Dugu Mou sneered.

At this time, Mulan shouted: "Jun Xian, it's not good, I'm afraid they're shooting at school." ”

Mulan's words just fell. Immediately, a large number of arrows were shot out of the Turks in a dense manner, and they were wasted like rain. Although these arrows are hanging, they are still quite powerful, and they can even penetrate some light armor, so they can kill and injure enemies. This kind of hanging shot is still very dangerous for soldiers who are not wearing heavy armor.

"Ahhhh......h

"Stand back, stand back!" Li Junxian hurriedly ordered.

This time is Li Junxian's biggest loss, more than 100 people were hit by arrows at one time, this is too cheating. The Turks mobilized seven or eight thousand archers to play this trick of hanging shooting. And they had the cover of the shield wall in front of them, so Li Junxian couldn't kill them. Because Li Junxian's subordinate soldiers all use crossbow machines. It's not like a bow that can be slinged. Normally, the crossbow has a long range, strong armor-piercing ability, and great power, but one of the disadvantages of the crossbow is that he can only blame flat shooting, not hanging shooting! Now the Turks can rest easy as long as they defend the front.

"How many people have we lost?" Li Junxian asked.

Mulan said: "We have 125 people who have been shot by arrows, but because most of the soldiers are wearing the silk clothes of General Li, although everyone has been shot, only five have actually been killed." The rest are injuries. There were less than twenty seriously wounded, and the others were all lightly wounded and could still fight. ”

"Hell, this is the biggest loss we've ever had. We have been attacking the steppes since then. It's still such a big loss in one go. What's more, we usually shoot the enemy with bows and arrows, but now the enemy actually shoots us with bows and arrows? What the hell is this! Su Dingfang inevitably complained.

However, Mulan looked into the distance and said, "I'm afraid the Turks are only the best of the best." The quality of the Turks' bows and arrows was not good. Therefore, the reason why they were able to use bows and arrows with such a long range was probably the high-quality bows and arrows selected from countless bows, otherwise they would not have been able to shoot us at this distance. And. These people who can pull this kind of high-quality bow and arrow are probably also elite among the Turks, because the Turks don't have such a thing as a pulley. Moreover, they probably have the Condor Shooter among the Turks as the calibrator, and the rest of the soldiers just choose how many degrees of angle to lift and pull a little strength according to the command of the Condor Shooter. ”

"General Wei, do you mean to say that the Turks have gathered all their archers and dedicated them to shooting us?" Dugumou asked.

Mulan said: "I speculate so, because they found that this method may be very effective, so they are afraid that they will continue to use it." Unless we are willing to disperse the soldiers and let the soldiers form skirmishers, then they will have limited means of this. ”

"No, you can't disperse the soldiers!" Li Junxian said.

On the other side, Jieli Khan also laughed, because he finally found a way to restrain Li Junxian, that is, bow and arrow to bow and arrow. Now the Turks can kill and injure the enemy by hanging shots, and this method is also very good.

"We have killed more than 100 of them in one shot, and as long as it lasts more than 100 times, then we will be able to completely annihilate Li Junxian's little white-faced troops." Jieli said.

However, one of the Turkic nobles said: "If the Khan scatters the archers, won't it be difficult for our arrows to hit them?" ”

"Hahahaha! Don't worry, they can't be dispersed. For as soon as they disperse the archers on the defensive front, they will have to meet the onslaught of our Turkic cavalry. When the time comes, they can't defend against it. Li Junxian is also an old opponent, and there will be no such mistakes. Jieli said

Because the power of the bow and crossbow is not strong enough, and the density is not enough, it is not possible to use the method of skirmishers. Later, the skirmish line was adopted, because the firearms were more powerful, and the accuracy was also higher, and the shooting was accurate. The current bow and crossbow, although the density is enough and the range is enough, but the accuracy and power are not enough. If it is dispersed, it will probably not be able to withstand the cavalry of the Turks. Therefore, Li Junxian absolutely did not allow the archers to disperse.

"Khan, this time Li Junxian's little white face will definitely perish." "Congratulations to Khan!" "Congratulations to Khan, congratulations to Khan!" ……

The Turks also have some sycophants, who specialize in sycophants.

"Okay, then let the condor shooters continue to stay with those archers to shoot, I want to clean up this Li Junxian's little white face!" Jieli said.

"Whoosh...... The archers of the Turks shot again. (To be continued......)
