Chapter 408: Repeater Strikes

In the billowing smoke and dust raised by the cavalry, the 20,000 heavy soldiers of the Chu army were busy nervously.

The baggage general of the Chu army brandished a cold horizontal knife and was loudly reprimanding his soldiers.

"Hurry, hurry up and dig, don't be slow, give Lao Tzu all the strength to feed, hurry up!"

"What about you, why the hell are you still stunned, waiting for the Han cavalry to rush up and cut off your head?!"

"You, you, and a few of you rabbit cubs, bring that row of deer to Lao Tzu and bury it!"

"Damn, how many times have I told you, the rejecting rifle is not such a way to tie up, so that the cavalry will all fucking collapse as soon as they charge, birds? Gotta do this, next time you make a mistake, be careful that Lao Tzu will beat you to death? ”

Under the command and dispatch of the baggage general, and under the fierce reprimand, the 20,000 baggage soldiers were divided into several groups, one set of hitchhikers, one group of digging trenches and burying deer bars outside the car array, and the other group set up anti-horse guns in the car formation to deal with the cavalry.

Fortunately, the deer and the rejecting rifle were ready-made, and they were loaded in the baggage cart.

In less than half an hour, thousands of heavy wagons formed a long chariot formation on the left flank of the Chu army, and its tail even bent inward, protecting the rear army of the entire Chu army's large array.

Inside the formation, there were several rows of repulsive rifles at a 45-degree angle. Although the length of these horse rejection guns is less than two zhang long, they are extremely densely bound and strong, and the iron spear heads are even sharper.

Of course, these are just defensive measures. The heavy soldiers of the Chu army are not only defensive.

Seeing that the baggage soldiers were almost busy, the baggage general jumped onto the chariot formation, and immediately raised the sharp horizontal knife in his hand, and shouted: "The crossbow is ready, the archers are ready to ......."

The baggage soldiers did not have time to catch their breath. They all stood behind the crossbows, and more of the baggage soldiers took out longbows and bundles of arrows from the baggage carriages that were open to the inside, and then went behind the repulsion rifles, and set up a slightly scattered bow array, and inserted the arrows one by one in front of their feet, so that they could be used at any time.

When everything was ready, the baggage general shouted again: "Raise the fire." Signal! ”

On the banks of the Chushui River, the Chu and Han cavalry swept towards the eastern wilderness like a whirlwind of clouds.

At this moment, the outermost Chu cavalry and the innermost Han cavalry have been mixed together, the cavalry on both sides have drawn their swords and slashed desperately, and the cavalry of the two sides that have not yet made contact with each other next to the contact surface have drawn their bows and released arrows, and poured a ** arrow rain on the opponent's head in the rush.

In the shadow of the sword and the rain of arrows, the cavalry of both sides continued to scream and fall off their horses, and they were quickly trampled into pulp by the cavalry surging by, but for the huge cavalry groups of the two countries. Such a small casualty is simply like a small wave in the long river of the river, which has just bloomed and disappeared without a trace.

Among the thousands of troops, Meng Keng galloped while holding his bow and arrows towards the Han army on the right, and with every time he pulled the bow, a Han cavalry would inevitably fall off the horse. At a certain moment, when Meng Keng went to get the arrow behind his backhand, he actually felt empty, and the bag full of thirty arrows had been shot all!

"Damn it!" Meng Keng cursed, and was about to ask his soldiers for arrows. A general suddenly chased after him from behind and shouted, "General, look, wolf smoke!" It's a wolf smoke! ”

"Huh?!" When Meng Keng heard the sound and hurriedly looked back, he saw that a wolf smoke had risen from the Chu army's array, and the smoke and dust in the sky could not be covered. ..., under the guidance of Meng Keng, the fifty thousand Chu horses slowly began to turn.

Zhou Guanfu rode a red dragon horse, brandished a double iron halberd, and was wantonly slashing and killing the cavalry of the Chu State.

Zhou Guanfu's martial arts are superb, ordinary cavalry is not his opponent at all, even if he is the general of the Chu army, he can rarely walk under his halberd, with every time he goes out of the halberd, there will inevitably be one or two horses Chu cavalry screaming and falling off the horse, this way to chase and kill, the Chu cavalry that died under Zhou Guanfu's halberd is no less than a hundred horses!

"Hahaha, it's so fucking happy!" Killing the two horsemen again, Zhou Guanfu couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh.

However, soon, Zhou Guanfu found that the cavalry of the Chu army had adjusted its direction and gradually disengaged from the cavalry of the Han army. There are no doors! The next moment, Zhou Guanfu's long legs were lightly grabbed, and the red dragon horse under his crotch suddenly let out a long roar, and also drove diagonally to the northeast.

Under the leadership of Zhou Guanfu, the Han cavalry and the Hu cavalry also began to turn.

At this time, if you look down from the sky, you can see an incomparably magnificent, incomparably magnificent magnificent picture, the two huge cavalry are like two great rivers rushing to the east, at a certain moment and a certain place began to turn, diagonally to the north, and then turned again, and then mightily migrated westward......

Soon, the cavalry of the two armies rushed into the billowing smoke and dust, and they were no longer visible.

Because at this time, the smoke and dust that rose at the beginning have not completely dissipated, under the cover of the billowing smoke and dust, even Zhou Guanfu, who has excellent eyesight, can only see the faint figure of the Chu army on the opposite side......

##########

Meng Keng raised his horizontal sword high and galloped at the forefront of the Chu army's cavalry formation.

The wind howled and poured in, the smoke and dust were everywhere, although his face was covered with a scarf, but a large amount of smoke and dust still continued to choke his mouth and nose through the gap of the scarf, so that he was almost unable to attract, looking back behind him, he could faintly see endless cavalry figures in the vast smoke and dust, there were Chu army, and more were Han army.

As time goes on, the soot ahead is thinning out.

Suddenly, a long array of cars suddenly emerged from the front.

In the next moment, Meng Keng gently pulled the reins of the horse, and the mount under the crotch changed direction again, galloping diagonally to the north, and the cavalry of the Chu army accompanying him also reined in their horses and turned around, and followed Meng Keng to the north.

Almost at the same time, Zhou Guanfu also saw the Chu army chariot array lying in front of him.

At this time, if the Han cavalry didn't want to collide with the Chu army's chariot formation from the front, there were only two options, either to avoid in the opposite direction to the Chu cavalry, and then watch the Chu cavalry calmly go north and get rid of contact, or go in the same direction, still biting the butt of the Chu cavalry!

Without any hesitation, Zhou Guanfu chose the latter - bite tightly!

Zhou Guanfu had already seen the bed crossbow placed on the Chu army's chariot array, and he even guessed that there must be a large number of archers standing behind the Chu army's chariot array, but so what? Although the lethality of the bed crossbow is large, the rate of fire is extremely slow, and in the short time that the Han cavalry galloped in front of the car formation, how many times could it be fired?

As for the archers behind the Chu army's chariot formation, it was even more of a problem.

The cavalry of the Han army is almost not under the Hu people such as Yuehu, Xiu Tu, and Hun Evil, and it is enough to hide from the side of the horse or even under the belly of the horse to avoid the cover of the Chu army's arrow rain! In short, the king's order that he Zhou Guanfu received was to bite the Chu cavalry until all the Chu cavalry was killed, and ......... "......" Zhou Guanfu snorted and galloped towards the north.

The Han cavalry and Hu cavalry accompanying him followed the horse's head, made a big bend in front of the Chu army's chariot array, and continued to chase after the Chu cavalry's buttocks, but the number of Han cavalry was far greater than that of the Chu army, and the inertia of the formation was greater, and the arc required to turn was larger, so the Han cavalry at the outermost edge inevitably collided with the chariot formation.

In front of the car formation, a large number of Han cavalry stepped into the horse pit or crashed into the deer, one by one the war horses neighed and fell to the ground, one by one the Han cavalry was thrown high into the air by the huge inertia, and when they landed again, they were either pierced through the body by the sharp deer bar, or trampled into meat by the surging follow-up cavalry.

However, this is just an appetizer, and the nightmare of the Han army has only just begun.

On the chariot formation of the Chu army, the horizontal knife raised by the baggage general fell suddenly, and the eight hundred baggage soldiers did not hesitate to smash the wooden hammer in their hands, accompanied by the loud sound of "bang bang bang", the eight hundred crossbows on the car array suddenly showed their hideous fangs, each with five huge arrows with a total of 4,000 arms as thick as a child's arm roared out, and they were rushed into the Han army cavalry array!

Among the thousands of troops and horses, many Han cavalry were nailed to the ground by giant arrows and men and horses, and some giant arrows even shot through several Han cavalry in a row, stringing their bodies like a string of sugar gourds, 4,000 giant arrows, like 4,000 sharp knives, cut out 4,000 blood grooves in the cavalry formation of the Han army.

In the Han army's array, people turned on their backs, and the entire cavalry formation was in turmoil in an instant.

Zhou Guanfu's pupils also contracted sharply, these Chu army bed crossbows were very different from the Han army, they could actually fire five giant arrows at the same time?! If he hadn't reacted quickly just now, he would have blocked the two giant arrows that shot at him with an iron halberd, and he would have died tragically on the spot.

But soon, a scene that surprised Zhou Guanfu even more appeared, and less than a moment later, the bed crossbow on the Chu army's chariot array actually shot out the second wave of giant arrows, and the Han army was in the middle of the army again, Zhou Guanfu couldn't believe his eyes, how could this be? The rate of fire of the Chu army's bed crossbow was so fast?!
