"The big cannibal finally can't help but show up......" Gao Xianzhi held the telescope and closely watched the movement on the opposite side, under the magnification of the tenfold telescope, he could clearly see Said Ben Humeide's angry and proud expression: "Well, this is preparing to fight." ”

"All-arms war!" Gao Xianzhi put down the telescope and handed it to a guard next to him, although the telescope can see clearly, the angle of view is too small, and commanding the operation needs to see the overall situation. When the Great Food Army was complete and began to advance slowly, Gao Xianzhi waved his hand: "Shoot with target arrows." ”

Shout! Shout! Sou! Sou!

The crossbowmen of the Anxi Army, holding the Fuyuan crossbow, the Zhang crossbow, the horn bow crossbow, the single bow crossbow, and the foot bow, all shot a row of feather arrows, and various feather arrows of different colors were clearly inserted on the ground in front of the formation.

This is the longest-range range of all kinds of bows and crossbows of the Anxi Army, and the farthest Fuyuan crossbow can shoot 300 steps, followed by 230 steps, 200 steps, 160 steps, and 110 steps. All the crossbowmen were nervous and excited to see if the enemy came within their range.

The Khorasan cavalry marched three miles away and began to speed slowly, and the somewhat annoyed Sayyid bin Humet did not make a tentative attack beforehand, but threw in more than half of his forces at once, as if to discourage himself, to crush the infantry of the Ansi army in one fell swoop.

Sahir was a Gauid under Humed and commanded a hundred soldiers. Chinese New Year's Eve, who was also a Persian slave, began to follow him when he was still a missionary. By now, Sahir has been fighting for almost five years.

This is his first time against the Tang army, as a veteran of a hundred battles, Sahil found the difference of the army in front of him, all of them are calm, fearless, even excited and fanatical, as if a hunter has seen his prey, Sahir knows very well that this is the confidence of a veteran of a hundred battles.

Despite this, Sahil still has confidence in beating them, not only because of his previous results, but also because of a faith. Sahil will never forget his miserable life as a slave before he followed and converted to Huda.

And now he had a monthly allowance of one hundred and sixty dirhams of silver, and enjoyed the same social status as the Arabs who had oppressed them. Even throughout the empire, whether in the army or in politics, most important positions were held by Persians like him. In his opinion, all these changes were the result of their acceptance of the proselytization of Posilin and his conversion to Huda. They are favored by Hu Da and are invincible!

Da Shi's cavalry quickly advanced to within a mile, and the array of the Anxi army was still not a trace of panic. Sahir heard a forward trumpet, and he gently clamped the horse's belly, and the horse began to accelerate, from a jog to a medium speed. At this time, he heard a swan sound from Anxi on the opposite side, and the cavalry on both flanks of the Anxi army began to accelerate their charge, and their target was the seven thousand Turkic cavalry of Shiguo.

Sahil didn't have time to pay attention to the Anthi cavalry, who had already rushed past the farthest row of feathered arrows and came within range of the Anthy crossbow. Sahil and the other Sayyd commanded loudly, and the Khorasan cavalry raised a round shield tied to his left arm, protecting him in front of him, looking like a black shield wall from a distance.

The Anxi Army Front, five thousand crossbowmen and one thousand Mo sword soldiers and one thousand jumping soldiers were still motionless, Gao Xianzhi's eyes were fixed on the first row of big food cavalry, until the other party immediately approached the second row of feather arrows. Gao Xianzhi swung the horizontal knife in his hand violently: "Fuyuan crossbow, shoot flat!" ”

The first row of five hundred crossbow arrows shot out with a sharp whistling sound and crashed into the Great Eclipse Cavalry, not aimed at the Khorasan knights, but the Arab horses under their crotches. Said bin Humed was commanded by light cavalry, and the soldiers were defended by a round shield, while the horses had almost no defense.

The Khorasan cavalry running in the first row was in a state of confusion, the horses hit by the crossbow arrows rolled on the ground and fell, the horsemen on the horses fell from their horses screaming, and for a time the people turned on their backs, and at least sixty or seventy knights were shot over.

Sahir ran in the third row, and he saw that a Khorasan religious warrior from the same village in the first row had his horse hit, and the man was thrown out of the way, rolling on the ground a few times, and before he could get up, he was trampled in the stomach by a horse behind him, and blood and feces burst out together.

Sahir's eyes were split, and his right hand, which was holding the short spear, began to heat up, and he really wanted to throw it immediately to avenge his comrades. At this moment he heard the horn of the charge, and Sahir kicked the horse in the belly, and the horse began to charge as fast as he could.

After a few paces, a second rain of arrows came again, this time closer, and more than eighty knights were knocked over. Sahil was still lucky not to be shot, by this time only half of the first platoon was left, and the second platoon was also reduced by 10%. At this time, Sahir already had an understanding of the strong crossbows of the Anxi army, which was indeed very powerful, but he was still full of confidence in defeating them. There are still two hundred paces, and now the war horse is running at full speed, and it can be reached in a few breaths. As long as it stormed the array of the Anxi army, it was a one-sided slaughter.

For the elite Khorasan religious warriors with fanatical religious beliefs, this damage is hardly nothing. Instead of being timid, they were stimulated even more crazy!

At a distance of one hundred and eighty paces, a thousand horned crossbows were fired, and two hundred Khorasan knights were knocked out. Said Ben Humeide, who was watching the battle from the rear, was bleeding from his heart, he didn't expect the Anxi army's crossbow arrows to be so powerful, and he really underestimated the enemy. But he still believes he will win, but at a lower cost.

After three rounds of crossbow arrows, the front row of the Great Eclipse Cavalry was already one hundred and forty paces away from the Anxi Army. The formation was already a little chaotic, and the speed did not become faster, but was slowed down by the corpses of the horses and knights on the ground. Seeing that the fourth round of crossbow arrows of the Anxi Army was being picked up and aimed, and the first round of crossbow machines was almost finished, Sahir's heart also swelled with a trace of badness.

Sou! Sou! Sou!

One hundred and thirty paces, a thousand single-bow crossbows were fired again, this time at a closer distance, and the dense rain of arrows instantly shot through the first two rows of the Great Eclipse Cavalry, and even the third row was damaged by more than one percent. Sahil's two knights on the left and right were shot and fell to the ground, and a feathered arrow hit the edge of Sahil's round shield, sending out a spark that passed by his shoulder, cutting his clothes directly. Sahil's heart sudden, adrenaline rushed, his eyes turned red, and he kicked the horse's belly like crazy.

Gao Xianzhi looked at the Khorasan cavalry who had become more and more brave and had entered a semi-crazy state with some appreciation, and thought to himself, the auxiliary minister was really not wrong, this is indeed a rare strong soldier in the world, the casualties are close to one and a half, and the will to fight is still so strong.

Ninety steps, Gao Xianzhi stared at the third row of the Great Food Cavalry, which was still complete, and swung his sword: "Archer, three shots!" ”

At this time, the first Fuyuan crossbow had also been wound, aimed for a second or two, and was also fired with the archers. In an instant, 2,500 feathered arrows roared towards the Great Eclipse Array, and the black rain of arrows darkened the sky.
