Qiang Qu saw with his own eyes the process of a Hu riding an arrow in front of him. The crossbow arrow jumped out from the neck of the war horse in front of it, and fell diagonally downward into the chest of the Hu horse, and after the arrow and the two 'eagles', the crossbow arrow did not lose its strength to penetrate the chest of the war horse and penetrate the abdomen of the war horse, piercing the waist and abdomen of the Hu horse!

Immortal Heaven is above, is this an arrow shot by a rhubarb crossbow?

At such a distance, with such power, it is not at all possible that a five-bucket or two-stone crossbow can be shot, this is at least a strong crossbow of more than three stones, and it is more likely to be a rhubarb crossbow!

Just as he was startled, a second wave of crossbow bolts hit. This wave is small in number, but the quasi-head is much higher, and the arrows bite the flesh. A Hu rider flew upside down, and Qiang Qu saw with his own eyes again, the crossbow bolt came out of the back of the Hu horseman, and flew the whole person up, and he plunged into the ground diagonally, and the depth of the earth almost reached the tail.

The second salvo of "Xiu Xiu ......" came again.

Qiangqu had seen the rhubarb crossbow when the Han army was fighting, as well as the extremely powerful bed crossbow and car crossbow. The latter two, as well as the rhubarb crossbow, are quite bulky, not to mention troublesome to move, and the tension is very large, and the winding speed is very slow.

But the Han army on the other side, this speed seems to be faster than the crossbow! Could it be that the Han army has made leaps and bounds in the crossbow?

"Ang...... ......The wailing of the war horses resounded through the battlefield, but the pace of the Hu cavalry charge would not stop.

Qiang Qu tried his best to widen his eyes and look at the Han military formation, but he didn't see a trace of the big yellow crossbow and the lathe crossbow. He only saw that the Han army in the phalanx was holding a crossbow machine, and was methodically harvesting the lives of the Dahu warriors.

From the distance from the beginning of the crossbow to the one hundred and twenty paces in front of the formation, the arrows began to fall from the sky. Rows and rows of Hu cavalry fell non-stop. It's really like a slaughter of hot weapons against cold weapons in the era of platoon guns.

The arrow curtain was covered, and when the Hu cavalry army led by Qiang Qu rushed through this area, the Hu cavalry of more than 1,000 people on three sides was shot half of them! That's the power of a crossbow.

And when Hu Qi entered the distance of 100 paces, the biggest card of the Han army was revealed--repeater.

"Woohoo...... "The arrows that flew from the meteors were no longer crossbow arrows, but were completely the chasers of Hades.......

Zhong Dayuan was one of the 200 coachmen, and he helped carry arrows in the previous battles, and made a lot of 'hard work'. This 'breakthrough' involves the lives of the whole army. The coachmen were also all included in the military ranks, albeit temporarily.

Because of his previous hardships and hard work, Zhu Biao left a good impression, and Zhong Dayuan was promoted to one of the temporary team leaders. But then in the 'military training' of grinding guns, Zhu Biao found that Zhong Dayuan was really not a leader. The team under him has been evaluated as 'poor' three times in a row.

When it was getting dark, Zhu Biao finally made a decision to wipe the hat of Zhong Dayuan's team leader, and was promoted from the position of team leader to Wu Commander. Although his rank has been reduced, he is sincerely relieved. Zhong Dayuan, who was lacking in his own confidence, stayed more comfortable and down-to-earth in the position of Wu Chang.

According to previous military exercises, Zhong Dayuan's weapons were a strong bow and a scimitar. The archers with their own foot stood behind the crossbowmen. He and another captain stood in the middle and on the far right of the army, and on the far left was the chief.

After a while, he heard the shouting of the order, Zhong Dayuan bent his bow and set up the arrow, and with a shout of 'release the arrow', the thumb of the right hand that was tightly clasped with the arrow was loosened, and the long arrow flew out diagonally upward.

Ejection! Not the flat shot that he was familiar with when hunting, but the projectile.

Zhong Dayuan didn't have time to see the path and foothold of the arrow, so he quickly pulled out a long arrow from the snow at his feet, stretched his bow and buckled the string. Only the angle was lowered slightly, and in the shouts of the command, the second arrow was released......

When all three arrows were shot in the grass at his feet, he quickly retracted his bow and retreated, only to see the last of the veterans with crossbows step forward to take the place of the archers.

The swishing machine spring sounded, and there was a scream outside the phalanx.

Almost all of the former troops attacking Hu Cai died under the arrows and crossbows, and the few who escaped back were also cut down in front of the battle by Qiangqu's 'killing chickens and monkeys'. But they didn't even finish the thistles sprinkled on the ground. There were still twenty paces away from the front of the formation, and with a single sword, he cut off the head of a Hu cavalry who had fled back from the front army, "My Dahu warriors, there are no cowards who are greedy for life and afraid of death-" Qiang Qu could only shout a bloody slogan. led the rear army to charge.

After firing the last crossbow, the crossbowmen dropped the crossbow machine in their hands, grabbed the shields, spears, and broadswords around them one by one, retreated to the top of the climbing plow, and waited in the five-step distance in the phalanx.

Qiangqu led the team to rush up, and after a distance of 20 paces, he paid as many as 100 horsemen, and finally approached the defense line of the climbing plow.

The corners of Anaqiongqi's eyes twitched, hand-to-hand combat was about to begin, and the time for the greatest sacrifice was coming. But before that, he had already lost fifteen or six hundred horsemen! Under the long-range blow of the Han army's bow and crossbow, our army lost more than half of its manpower when it rushed to the phalanx, which was really heart-wrenching.

That's fifty percent of the total casualties in the Battle of Baishankou, so many Dahu warriors were lost on the road before they rushed in front of the enemy, that is, a 10,000 cavalry and tens of thousands of Han troops fought fiercely, and the loss was this number.

Anaqiongqi didn't have time to think deeply, and his years of combat experience led him to immediately give a second order, and he threw three more thousand cavalry teams into it.

Boom -

Boom -

Boom -

With the continuous impact, the phalanx cracked open one by one, and the follow-up Hu rode a prancing horse into it from this rag.

"Kill......"

The real fight begins. A row of pikemen at the head of the Han army stabbed forward suddenly, and the sharp blades of their spears took the lives of the horsemen and horses one by one, and at the same time, their footsteps easily avoided the collision of the horses.

Of course, not everyone can avoid the collision of the war horse. Some of the Hu horsemen with long soldiers in their hands frantically waved their blades to block the spears stabbed by the spearmen. One of the spearmen in front of Zhu Biao was also swept in the shoulder by the enemy with a mace when he stabbed the enemy in the chest with a shot, and his armor jumped away. His arm was bleeding profusely. A broadsword soldier in the back row immediately stepped forward and took the position of the spearman, and the former quickly retreated, looking for a military doctor to bandage his wounds with a depressed face.

He was injured after killing only one person, which was really inferior to the current Han army.

Taking the place of the front row, the big knife soldier waved the big knife in his hand and took a step forward, shouting "kill" in his mouth, and a sword of snow slashed down, just cutting the Hu Qi who then crashed into this gap in half with a knife.

Anadoki's second order was timely. When the second wave of Hu cavalry rushed towards the phalanx, they did not suffer as large a proportion of long-range damage as before, although after the hand-to-hand combat began. The only thing that was still engaged in 'long-range shooting' was a group of throwing foot archers.

They retreated to the second line of defense within the phalanx, behind the second climbing plow.

Hu Cai's side was also firing arrows back after approaching the phalanx. It's just that after Hu Qi's riding bow was eroded by snow, not only the range was shortened, the bowstring became softer, and the lethality was also drastically reduced.

Especially in the last day and night, they have lost fuel, and the tent is cloudy and cold, which cannot guarantee the dryness of the temperature at all, and the protection of bows and arrows is extremely unfavorable.

And the Han army. Whether it's in a cave. Still on the plow, the braziers burning with charcoal fire not only ensure the temperature of the human body. It also ensures the power of the bow and crossbow.

The second wave of Hu cavalry encountered four waves of arrows within a hundred paces and lost more than 200 people. But the investment of the second wave of Hu cavalry also put the Han military array under tremendous pressure, and the two sides fought fiercely on the front line of the battle.

Zhu Biao stood on the top of the second line of climbing ploughs with a strong bow in his hand, staring at the phalanx that was fighting, and with one arrow at a time, he had already taken the lives of thirteen centurions and three thousand horsemen.

The front and rear two groups of Hu cavalry were completely 'accumulated' in front of the formation, and "beating the drums-" Zhu Biao ordered.

After that, the Han army no longer had to be 'trapped' in the phalanx, and Hu Cai had now lost his biggest weapon - sprinting, and the Han army could fight back to the front of the formation.

It's like a charged athlete waiting for the starting pistol for the start of the game. As soon as the drums of war rang out, a louder shout than the previous one burst out from the mouths of hundreds of Han saber and gunmen.

It was originally a battle line in the street, and immediately the Han army had the upper hand with an overwhelming advantage.

A shot stabbed down, and even men and horses died; A knife slashed down, and even people and horses were shattered.

"When ......" three weapons were handed together, two maces against a large knife.

The owner of the broadsword pressed down with angry eyes, and the owner of the two maces lifted it together. It's all in addition to the hard breastfeeding.

"Poof-" A spear stabbed from the oblique place, penetrating the waist and abdomen of the owner of the mace on the left at the moment, and the force became a single force, and the broadsword immediately achieved an absolute advantage. He slammed the mace on his right and threw it to the ground, then slammed the knife and swept the blade across the waist of the person on the right.

The advantage of the Han army, the super combat power of the soldiers, and the training and run-in of the right part are now full value, but it is not a joke. If these two items are full, it means that the right part is now forbidden, and it means that the right part is now cooperative.

However, Zhu Biao did not have a high-grade infantry battle formation in hand, and he had to cooperate with the climbing plow phalanx, so what is listed on the right now is a very simple infantry and riding general formation - a phalanx.

+10 Defense, +10 Offense, +10 Speed.

In front of the rows of guns and knives, Hu cavalry suffered heavy losses, and the rows of 'strolling' Hu cavalry who pounced on them were knocked over by the neatly stabbed guns and smashed by the knife mountains that entered like a wall.

After arranging into a phalanx, the method of advancing like a wall by the Mo sword soldiers can finally regain its glory on the battlefield.

There were also some Hu cavalry who were in a panic and were directly nailed to the ground by the arrows of the second line. Although the Han army was sparsely numbered, it was attacked on three sides and counterattacked on three sides, competing against each other, and did not concede a cent.

The phalanx of the Han army was as stable as a rock, and the damage was very small. The battle between the two armies was like a collision between steel and sand, the former was small but extremely hard, and the latter was large but scattered and weak, and the ratio of battle losses between them had already exceeded 1:50.

Although the body of Hu Qi is abundant now, the body of the soldiers of the Han Army is more abundant.

Counting the number of people who were shot by the bow and crossbow, half of the six thousand Hu cavalry in the front and back were already about to fall.

Zhu Biao pulled up a crimson battle flag, raised it into the air, and shook it left and right, and the strict phalanx formation began to change. The swordsmen on the left and right flanks took the first soldier in the front row of the formation as the axis, and made an arc outflanking movement on the left and right diagonally. Under the command of the commander and the first-class junior officer, the soldiers marched with guns and knives. Gradually, the transformation was completed, and it looked like two wings had opened in the phalanx and wrapped forward.

Any kind of formation change in combat is very difficult, and if one is not handled well, the entire array will be scattered and disrupted in the middle. In an instant, the situation between the enemy and the enemy reversed, and he still took the initiative to find a draw.

However, the right officers and men, who were trained and run-in at 100, easily completed such a change, and the military training, such a formation change was almost engraved in their hearts, and it was naturally completed in the command of the team officer. The formation is still neatly aligned. Both wings almost at the same time step on the same point to reach the designated position.

On the battlefield, such a change of formation can be called perfect. And the energy it expresses is also terrifying!

Any soldier or general who knows anything about war understands it.

But. It's a pity that, in addition to the Hu cavalry in front of them, Anaqiongqi, Dulun, etc., were blinded by their sight and could not appreciate this kind of military magnificence.

With the wings opening at the same time. The frontal crushing turned into a flank outflank, and the Han soldiers who attacked on three sides formed a joint encirclement of the Hu cavalry in front of them. Attack the Hu people who are trapped in the center from three directions. Rows of spears stabbed out, rows of swords and snow slashed, and every moment and every second, I don't know how many Hu knights and their horses were poked over, cut to the ground, and the screams resounded on the battlefield.

Zhu Biao's eyes were shining, and the right part had now stimulated the formation breaking attribute of the trapped camp, and it was really like mowing the grass to kill the enemy, invincible.

The roots of the green tendons erupted in Anaqiongqi's head, and he really wanted to kill them all when he saw that he was swept away by the Han cavalry whose number was far less than his own.

Attacks from the flanks are always the most lethal to the army. Although Hu Qi was a standing army, his own people were killed by the Han army's spears and swords in groups, as if they didn't even have the strength to fight back. A qiē is like a massacre, a naked slaughter. Fear naturally rises from the bottom of their hearts! Qiang Qu brandished his mace with both hands, and frantically smashed it into the three spears stabbed in front of him. He had already rushed several times, but he was blocked by the three Han soldiers in front of him with spears. These Han soldiers work in groups of two or three, and they are very old and spicy. Every time he rushed forward, there would always be three or three spears stabbing at him, the spear in the front stabbing his chest, and the spear next to him stabbing his waist and ribs. And never a single one.

As the commander of ten thousand horsemen, Qiangqu's martial arts have also reached a first-class state. Ordinary Han soldiers, their cooperation is no matter how tacit they are, he can still break through with one blow if he drops ten times with one force.

However, the Han army in front of him really all had terrifying strength, and when the guns and sticks were handed over, Qiang Qu felt a lot of strength. Although he is not his opponent yet, he fights alone, and he has absolute confidence to take the enemy's head within ten moves. But the battlefield is never alone, and the Han soldiers on both sides can always make themselves return in vain with such a simple stabbing action.

The person in front can block his own blow, and if a spear pierces him on the side, what can he do if he doesn't retreat?

Qiang Qu angrily and helplessly danced the mace into a ball of bright flowers, ready to impact again, but suddenly felt a sharp pain like a pinprick in his eyebrows, and raised his eyes to see a little cold star flying in front of him!

Qiang Qu was so shocked that he knew what this cold star was, and hurriedly raised his hand to block it, but the next moment his movements immediately stopped, and then he was stabbed in the chest by the Han soldier in front of him.

Zhu Biao shot an arrow through Qiang Qu's head, the long arrow penetrated the entire skull, hitting the inner back wall of the molten gold helmet worn by Qiang Qu, and with a 'bang', the helmet was knocked out by the arrow, and then Qiang Qu's entire head burst open.

Anaqiongqi's eyes were dull, he didn't understand how these Han soldiers killed his six thousand elites and collapsed, he wanted to say something to Du Lun, but he opened his mouth but didn't have time to say it, and the world in front of him quickly turned black.

"Woo woo ......" Hu cavalry sent the horn sounded.

Anaqiongqi was dizzy, and Dulun quickly took over the military power. The horn sounded, and this was the message of sending troops.

"Kill, ......" Hu cavalry in the three directions each had 3,000 cavalry thrown into this impact, counting the previous 6,000 cavalry, it was already 15,000 cavalry, half of the army's military strength.

Du Lun himself did not leave any backhand at all, and he himself had personally led his troops to rush forward at this moment.

Zhu Biao quickly commanded the infantry archers to release arrows, and some veterans also came out of the phalanx with crossbows.

The array of Han troops that attacked quickly retracted, and when the rushing Hu cavalry came to the front, they reformed a phalanx.

Cavalry has been completely abandoned by Hu Qi, and it is hard to believe that the weak cavalry bow can kill these strong Han soldiers in front of him with them.

Du Lun's vision had already been practiced viciously in many battles, and when the first two groups of Hu cavalry were defeated, he immediately judged that this was the best time to turn defeat into victory. Then without hesitation, he threw in the maximum number of troops that could be accommodated on the battlefield, and personally led the charge.

His judgment was very accurate, and he had defeated the Han soldiers of the previous two groups of Hu cavalry, and had already highlighted the climbing plow phalanx behind him for a short distance, and it was too late to retreat back into the climbing plow phalanx when the third wave of Hu cavalry rushed down.

In the face of their own rapid charge, the few hundreds of Han troops could only hold on.

Du Lun took the lead in leaping into the Han army's formation, followed by countless Hu horsemen like a torrent. He shook his big gun, and a ball of blood immediately exploded in the chest of a Han soldier. This shot was supposed to be stabbed in the neck of this Han soldier, but when he was knocked by the Han soldier's spear, the big gun went down.

Then, Dulun continued to move forward, completely penetrating the Han army's military formation without stopping. After all, the Han army, which attacked from three sides, only had about a hundred people on one side.

Du Lun believed very much that with such a chiseling tactic, the Han army would be completely divided by himself. The experience of countless wars has shown that as long as the infantry is scattered, it is the target of cavalry slaughter. Although the combat power of the Han soldiers in front of him was so strong that he defied the sky, Du Lun believed that in the face of the scattered Han soldiers, he only needed to pay a certain price to absolutely eliminate them all.
