Chapter 526: Riding and Shooting
When Nangong Cheng first appeared, although he was famous, he was not as strong as Zhao Min and Feng Ruilai. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info At the beginning, Qin Yun worshiped Nangong and became the commander and led the war in the three northern states, and everyone thought that this was Qin Yun's pawn to suppress the power of the generals in the three northern states and take back the military power.
But looking at it at this time, the vision of that person who knows people and uses people is really impressive. The number of heroes under his command is also amazing.
This fierce battle with the Huns, although at a disadvantage. But everyone knows that this is a good woman who is forced to cook without rice. Although the situation is not good, it still maintains a certain degree of confrontation and does not lead to erosion.
Nangong Cheng is this person, the material of commanding the army, there are few rivals in the world! Even if it's the first town of Guogong, it's nothing more than that!
Zhao Ling looked at Nangong Cheng's figure and felt extremely pity. Such a person, if he was in his own home, how good it would be! Fortunately, it's not without opportunities. After this battle, everything will be clear.
With Nangong Cheng's command, thousands of hurried shield carts were pushed out, lined up layer upon layer. Nangong Cheng has never stopped attacking, in order to resist the Huns' cavalry, as early as when he arrived in Yundong County, he began to build shield carts.
Unexpectedly, so did Zhang Xun. Although he is for defense, it can be regarded as a crooked fight!
In addition to the 800 heavy shield vehicles built by Inspector Zhang, nearly 3,000 of these shield vehicles were light shield vehicles that were convenient for field battles. Whenever there was a battle, the Qin army only needed to fill the shield cart with soil, and then the immortal cultivators accompanying the army would solidify it. That defensive capability will not be weak.
At the same time, this chariot formation can also effectively resist the impact of the cavalry.
In addition to this, the Qin army also carried a large number of shields. Just insert the lower edge of the shield into the ground to cover several people behind you. In addition, there is an arm shield, almost one for each person, which can defend against enemy projectiles and arrows from above.
In order to resist the cavalry of the Huns, Qin Yun and others racked their brains, thought of everything they could think of, and made protection.
There are also spears like forests, and countless halberds are lined up. At this time, looking at the military formation of the 200,000 army, it was like a huge hedgehog, which made people feel cold.
"It's coming!"
Qin Yun's heart suddenly moved, and he looked carefully ahead. I saw that the army on the opposite side suddenly began to press forward, and the remaining million iron horsemen of the Huns seemed to be a black tide with no end in sight, surging madly towards this side.
The distance between the Hun knights was extremely wide, and the distance between them was as long as a foot. Between the left flank, the right flank and the Chinese army, it was more than 10,000 zhang wide, forming a large and two small circle formations. The width of the formation also exceeded the Qin army's side by several times, and there was a faint tendency to encircle. And the array seems to be sparse, but once the other party starts to gallop, it is still a mountain of momentum.
However, in the face of this terrifying wave, the Qin army array remained immovable.
After more than a month of fighting, the Northern Army has returned to the peak period of dominating the world. Although this battle was big, it couldn't scare the elite soldiers of the Great Qin who had defeated the other nine countries in a row, and they were truly invincible soldiers in the world.
This is also the reason why Qin Yun and the others dared to fight against the millions of iron horsemen of the Huns.
Seeing that the opponent's cavalry was about to gallop to a distance of ten miles, the Qin army's large array was the first to move. With Nangong Cheng's order, the Gang Gang crossbow was launched first, and a full 100,000 sharp arrows flew down from the back of the shield car.
In an instant, nearly 5,000 Hun iron horsemen fell.
10,000 broken crossbows is already the limit of the current weapon department. That's it, and a considerable part of it was made in the last month and a half, which is much rougher.
Although the Huns had expected it, the power of the Gang Gang Crossbow was extremely great, and its range was nearly half that of a general bow and crossbow. Even in the face of the Hun iron cavalry who are good at shooting, it will take a lot more distance. And at this distance, the Huns could only be next to each other.
If it weren't for the lack of broken crossbows, Nangong Cheng would have been able to kill all the millions of Huns.
"Kill!" Liu Bao, the Xiongnu Zuoxian King, took the lead and led nearly 300,000 horsemen under his command to storm the Qin army's array. Although the cavalry fell from time to time, the Huns were still fearless in their death-defying charges, looking crazy.
At the same time, the same was true of the right wing and the central army, and the Huns were completely insane. The Huns knew that only by defeating Qin Yun would they have a future!
"The Last Madness!" A warm smile suddenly appeared on Nangong Cheng's face, which made people who were familiar with him feel cold.
The Qin army remained motionless as a mountain, and seemed to want to rely on spears and halberds to resist the iron cavalry of the Huns. This was originally a regular way to deal with cavalry, and Lao Shangshan Yu and the others didn't feel anything wrong. It's just that the Qin army's strong crossbows are powerful, and their losses are not small.
In addition to the 10,000 broken crossbows, there were 100,000 crossbows firing in the Qin army, and almost all the rear troops of the Qin army became archers.
For a while, the Hun iron cavalry was temporarily at a disadvantage.
"That broken crossbow is really powerful, and it can't be kept!" Lao Shangdan made a decision in his heart, and a fierce color flashed in his eyes.
The steppe people's housekeeping skills lie in bows and arrows and iron horses, and if they are restrained in this regard, it will be tantamount to a catastrophe for the steppe people.
"What a powerful bow and crossbow, it seems that this is the legendary weapon of the north - the Broken Gang Crossbow. Such a sharp weapon must be obtained. Zhao Ling thought in his heart.
The battle has just begun, and the Huns are already in good shape.
Soon, the Huns also began to counterattack.
Nearly 100,000 arrows flew into the air. Dense rain of arrows staggered in mid-air, and then fell separately.
This is the first wave of arrows of the Hun cavalry, which seems to be not much, but after only a few breaths, nearly 100,000 arrows rose into the air. In less than half an hour, ten waves in a row, millions of arrows poured out like a storm, bringing the Huns' riding and archery methods to the extreme.
On the contrary, on the Qin army's side, although the three-stage shooting method was adopted, the number was too small after all, and it was suppressed by the opposite side. After only three rounds of shooting, Qin Yun and the others' faces had already become extremely solemn.
The 3,800 shield wagons, including 800 heavy shield wagons, had been destroyed by this time, and less than 2,300 remained. In particular, there are less than 300 of the 800 heavy shield vehicles in the forefront, and the power of the Huns' riding and archery method can be seen.
Along with these 1,500 shield carts, there were nearly 10,000 Qin soldiers, all of whom were killed or wounded under the arrows of the Huns, which made Qin Yun and the others feel painful.
This is nearly 10,000 veterans of a hundred battles! Consumed under the enemy's arrows in vain, it was no wonder that Qin Yun and the others were heartbroken.
