Chapter 437 Destroying Chu [II]

"Put!" The military order sounded. 【Reading.com】

"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ……”

Because the war was so large, the longbowmen spared no effort, and each platoon of longbowmen fired at a rate of ten arrows per minute. Three rows of longbowmen, so that the sky will rain arrows every two seconds on average.

The rain of arrows rushing wildly made the Chu army's formation chaotic, which was also the reason why there were too many new recruits in the Chu army, and many of them had no combat experience. Moreover, the old man was slow to react, so that they did not react when the rain of arrows came. The reactive man crouched on the ground and shielded his body with his shield, but it hindered the advance of the soldiers in the rear.

The chaos weakened the Chu army's defense against the rain of arrows even lower, and a large number of Chu soldiers were nailed to the ground by long arrows. In particular, the archery method of longbowmen is projectile, and the arrows are shot from the top, and most of the places where they are shot are the head and chest.

Yang Zilu couldn't imagine that Chu Jun was such a garbage, and after thinking for a while, Yang Zilu ordered: "Slowly press on!" ”

Immediately, the slow sound of war drums sounded in the battle formation, and the infantry slowly advanced in orderly steps. The speed of the Han army's advance was not fast, but the momentum was very overwhelming, and the neat pace seemed to hit the hearts of the Chu soldiers. Those soldiers who had not been on the battlefield turned pale all of a sudden, and even the veterans who had been on the battlefield had more or less less good-looking faces.

In order to boost morale, King Chu Hui roared angrily. "Rush!"

After saying that, King Chu Hui led the palace armor to charge in front in person, he had no way to retreat, and he had no choice.

"The morale is high, and it is based on the fact that the morale of the other party is not high!" Yang Zilu looked at King Chu Hui, and a sneer flashed in his eyes. and was not affected by King Chu Hui's example.

"Kill !!" Stimulated by King Chu Hui, the originally low morale of the Chu army was raised again. Of course, this also has a lot to do with the fact that the rain of arrows of the longbowmen has stopped, although the longbowmen are very powerful, but they also consume a lot of physical strength.

Although it is theoretically possible for a longbowman to reach a maximum rate of fire of twelve arrows a minute, these are theoretical. There is an end to human strength, especially longbowmen need a lot of strength to shoot arrows, let alone shoot twelve arrows, even if ten arrows are shot in one minute, it is enough for longbowmen. Therefore, the longbowmen only shot for about half a minute, and then they retreated to rest.

On the battlefield, only the crossbowmen are left to shoot arrows slowly, and although the crossbowmen are slow, they are not as powerful as the longbowmen. And relatively speaking, the continuous combat ability of strong crossbowmen is higher than that of longbowmen. Of course, ignoring their turtle-like rate of fire, they might be the best ranged class on the battlefield.

Slowly entering the firing range, the soldiers of the Chu army also began to counterattack, but their counterattack was so weak in front of the Han army, and the archers were hit by the strong crossbowmen of the Han army. Archers without armor, under the blows of strong crossbowmen, are like a group of sheep that have encountered a bad wolf, and they are extremely miserable.

Blood bloomed in the air, followed by a fallen archer, each of whom had terror in their pupils. Although the Chu army had more archers than the Han army's strong crossbowmen, they were helplessly inferior to the strong crossbowmen in range. They could only shoot arrows at the Han infantry, and in the face of the neatly draped Han army, the arrows of the Chu army were limited in lethality.

The archers of the Chu army finally understood, they were just a group of bitter coercion, honestly fighting swords, and the lethality was probably a little greater. King Chu Hui was also helpless about this, under the exploitation of the Han State, he did not have much money at all, especially the chariot soldiers. Because of the need to pay tribute to the Han State of war horses, the State of Chu was finally cut to only a hundred military chariots.

As for the weapons, it is conceivable that a considerable number of soldiers even directly cut the bamboo poles and wrapped a thin layer of bronze skin on the bamboo poles. In terms of armor, don't even think about it, being able to have a piece of armor made of bamboo is a big luxury for the soldiers of the Chu army.

To the sound of drums, the melee classes of both sides were settled.

"Rush!"

"Kill!"

"Great Chu Wansheng!"

The soldiers of the Chu State roared, spread their legs, and charged at the Han army.

"Flat spear!" Compared to the Chu army, the Han army was very calm. Like a mountain, no matter what kind of enemy he faces, he will always be like that, but it is impossible to ignore.

The long spear was put down in an instant, forming a forest of steel thorns in front of the Chu army.

"Ahh The soldiers of the Chu army who rushed to the front row all widened their eyes, opened their mouths, and burst out into a shout, not knowing whether they were frightened or roared. But either way, it's already meaningless, because they all have only one result, and that is death!

The soldiers of the Chu army didn't know if they were pushed, or if they couldn't stop themselves. All in all, the soldiers of the Chu Army who were running in the front row crashed into the steel spear forest in an instant, and the blood of the Red Dandan was mixed with flesh and blood.

The screams were loud in the sound of weapons entering the flesh.

"One! Two! One! The officer shouted beside the spear battle array.

The soldier bowed his head, bowed slightly, his left shoulder stubbornly against the shield, and kept roaring forward.

The soldiers of the Chu army were forced hard, and behind them were comrades, constantly squeezing them inside, and in front was a forest of steel spears. After the war, a considerable number of Chu soldiers can be inferred from their faces before they died, and they did not blink an eye.

In a way, they said that they did not die at the hands of the Han army, but at the hands of their comrades. However, the charge of the Chu army was not without effect, and countless soldiers exchanged their lives for the spears of the Han army.

"Keep it up! The Han barbarian can't support it anymore! Seeing this, King Chu Hui's eyes lit up, and behind the soldiers of the Chu army, he tried his best to encourage.

"Your Majesty, where are your ambushes? If you don't send it out again, I'm afraid that even if you win, you will suffer a lot of casualties! Zilu said a little tactfully, in fact, what he said subtly meant was that if he didn't make a move, he might be defeated.

Yang Zilu smiled calmly, pointed in the direction of Wancheng, and said, "Didn't that appear?" ”

I saw the direction of Wancheng, and I don't know when a black smoke like a black dragon has come out, soaring into the sky.

And at this moment, the Chu army was in the array.

"King! King! The big thing is not good, Wancheng was attacked by Han barbarians! Wancheng has fallen! The Queen Mother, the Queen and the ladies have been martyred! A soldier came to King Chu Hui covered in blood and said in a loud voice.

"What did you say?" King Chu Hui took a step backwards and couldn't accept this reality at all.

But the soldier had already fallen to the ground, and the nearby soldiers went up to check and found that he had already been seriously wounded, and that he had only one breath left before he came to him. After shouting the news of the fall of Wancheng, the king of Chu Hui, he also vented his breath.
