Lu Kai is a person who knows the soldiers, and when he heard the enemy attacking, he beat the snare drum and summoned the generals as soon as possible.

A series of orders were issued quickly, and the generals led the army to garrison everywhere within two quarters of an hour, and 20,000 elites formed a four-gate fighting bottom formation, ready to face the battle.

The three-way army of the Changding army was approaching, and the army appeared on three sides of the Yongzhou army in its glory, and the blood and gas that rose to the sky actually formed an overwhelming advantage over the 40,000 Yongzhou army, and the blood and gas of the Yongzhou army were suppressed in the flat hillside, and Lu Kai's heart sank suddenly.

The strength and blood of the army represent the quality of the enemy's sergeants, and it is the first time that Lu Kai has seen such a terrifying army, and even the sword cavalry under the command of Wang Yan is slightly inferior.

Lu Kai really didn't know how Tianshui County, a land of mountains and wilderness, could have a super army of such quality.

If it is replaced by the Southern Barbarian Army, Lu Kai can accept it, but it must be the 30,000 true elites selected from the million Southern Barbarian Army, so that such a military strength and blood can appear!

If he is only strong in blood, Lu Kai still has the confidence to rely on his own military literacy and fight against the well-trained 20,000 elites.

However, at this time, no Yongzhou army general would have such confidence.

When the rapid advance, the three-way standing army was like one person, the military appearance was extremely neat, the 30,000 people were integrated, there was no flaw at all, Lu Kai knew that this was definitely a disciplined army to the point of outrageous.

Needless to say, the three-way army, blue and white, is clearly distinguished, and they are all armored, especially the vanguard troops in front, whose whole body is shrouded in battle armor.

From the news fed back by the scouts, it can be seen that these three-color armors are all forged from stainless steel, and to injure the soldiers inside is simply a dream for ordinary soldiers, and only warriors have such qualifications.

Ordinary soldiers, to deal with such a steel monster, can only rely on the advantage of numbers and exhaust the opponent's physical strength alive.

Wearing such a heavy armor to fight, even if the enemy army is extremely physical, it will never last.

It's just that Lu Kai is very suspicious that before his army exhausts the opponent's physical strength, the 40,000 army may have been slaughtered by the other party.

At this time, the guards hurriedly came to report, and on the nameless hills in the rear, two thousand black-armored Changding troops appeared, cutting off the retreat of the Yongzhou army.

The Black Armor Standing Army is the most known to the Yongzhou Army, and those who uprooted the scouts of the Yongzhou Army are all Black Armor.

Although it is likely that the scout wore black armor because of the need for concealment, it also shows that the black armor soldiers are the real elite of the Changding Army, and in addition to the full-body steel armor, the weapons are also quite sharp.

The most terrifying thing is that the physical fitness of the black armor soldiers is extremely terrifying, all of them have amazing strength and long-lasting endurance, and they are also suspected of practicing kung fu and are invulnerable!

The bad feeling in Lu Kai's heart became stronger and stronger, and without hesitation, he released more than a dozen demon beast-level communication eagle falcons, and several precious messengers were also stimulated, sending a signal for help towards the Yongzhou Central Army and the Yongzhou right wing.

Xiang Xiong completely ignored Lu Kai's call for help, and the army advanced steadily, and soon reached the range of contact battles, less than two miles away from the Yongzhou army's four-door doudi array.

With a wave of the command, Jiang Wuwei's two rows of burly sergeants quickly stepped forward, and with a loud bang, hundreds of huge steel shields one person high suddenly slammed to the ground, and hundreds of steel shields instantly formed a row of thousands of meters long steel walls, protecting the army to the death.

The Changding Army has completely abandoned the sword and shield hand, and the armor of the Mo Sword Soldier is equipped with a small alloy steel arm shield, which can block the blade.

As for the protection against crossbows, it was completely unnecessary, and it was impossible for an ordinary archer to shoot through a steel armor that was at least five millimeters thick.

As for the hundreds of steel shield soldiers, they are mainly used to resist the attack of high-powered ordnance such as catapults and fire dragon cannons, or the impact of cavalry.

Each shield is one meter eight, one meter wide, two centimeters thick, there are pointed steel pillars behind the shield that can be driven into the ground, the whole shield weighs more than 600 catties, and the use of these shields is also a huge soldier in the army.

Under the steel shield wall, the pikemen quickly stepped forward, and a steel spear several meters long poked out from the gap in the steel shield, and the steel spear turned into a thorny iron wall in a blink of an eye, and any army that wanted to storm this thorny iron wall would definitely have to pay an extremely heavy price!

Aoki Wei and Panshi Wei also formed a thorny iron wall and blocked the Yongzhou Army on three sides.

Lu Kai's face was extremely solemn, such a wall of steel was never easy to deal with, and the best way to deal with a dense battle formation of soldiers like the Changding Army was to use catapults, large bed crossbows, fire dragon cannons, etc. to launch an attack to disperse the opponent's formation.

It's just that the left wing of the Yongzhou Army today does not have such large equipment, only small trebuchets and stone trucks that are easy to move.

When escaping from Yongchang City, the army did not carry these clumsy and heavy ordnance, and then although it captured many cities in Qinzhou and Yongzhou, and got a large number of supplies, including some bed crossbows and fire dragon cannons, but the Southern Barbarian Army and the three-state coalition army were also chasing and killing all the way, and the army was naturally not easy to carry such ordnance to escape.

Lu Kai looked around at the generals and said in a deep voice: "Generals, who wants to fight in front of the battle?"

All the generals were silent, and when Lu Kai's eyes became sharp, he glanced at everyone again, and one of them, a steel-armored general with a hideous face and a dark red sarcoma on his forehead, stepped forward: "The last general is willing to fight!"

Lu Kai's face slowed down at this time, this sarcoma general is called Zuo Ping, he is the leader of a group of mountain bandits in the Yongzhou Army, and now he is the Zhonglang General of the Yongzhou Army, the peak level of the Four-Rank Martial Sect, he is good at making an iron thorn whip, and his strength is not weak.

He nodded and said in a deep voice, "Okay!

"Zuo Zhonglang will remember to delay as much time as possible. This official has already informed the state pastor that when the Chinese army and the right wing come, he will definitely be able to wipe out the Changding army!"

As he spoke, Lu Kai turned his gaze to another bearded general wearing a tiger helmet and a chain of chain mail: "Li Kuai, you lead five thousand cavalry, once this officer gives the order, you will lead the army to take the nameless hill to ensure the retreat of the army!"

The two generals both received orders, and then Zuo Pingfei carried a silver-horned giant wolf, dragging a three-zhang long nine-section fine iron whip, and left the battle!

"Your grandfather Zuo Ping is here! Who dares to come out and die!"

As soon as he came out of the big array, Zuo Ping shouted loudly.

Qin Shengnan, who was beside Xiang Xiong, suddenly snorted coldly: "General Xiang, the last general is willing to fight with him!"

Xiang Xiong smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "The Yongzhou Army is doing this just to delay time!"

"I always have strict discipline in the army, how can I use such means to boost morale!"

His eyes suddenly sharpened, and he said in a deep voice: "Pass the order, the rear bachelor will chant the three chapters of Changding, and the steel archers will prepare!"

"Gong Lose the Car, have you prepared the Eight Bull Armor-Piercing Crossbow?"

The bus replied solemnly: "General Huixiang, the ordnance battalion has occupied various high ground and can attack at any time!"

Xiang Xiong nodded: "Very good, let this guy who doesn't know the height of the sky know the power of our Eight Bull Armor-Piercing Crossbow!"

On Jiang Wuwei's side, the two fifth-grade scholars who accompanied the army, as well as several fourth-grade scholars, were all elders of Jiangwu Village, and they all knew that this battle was related to the status of Jiangwu's department in the Yongzhou army, so they all attacked with the army.

Although the blood of the army has a great impact on them, but the blood of the enemy army is suppressed, the blood of their own army has little impact on them, listening to the order from Xiang Xiong, the scholars in the rear of the army did not hesitate to use the power of Wen Xin and speak the truth.

The three chapters of Changding, or the three chapters of Fenglai, are the three chapters of Meiling plagiarized by the Chu River, which have the effect of greatly boosting morale and improving the combat effectiveness of soldiers.

Although the scholars of Jiangwu Village sang this war poem, the effect was far from being comparable to that of Chu He, the first author, and the power of the war poem could not envelop the whole army, and at most it could only bless two or three thousand soldiers, but it also had an extremely amazing effect.

"What does the severed head mean today? Entrepreneurship is difficult and there are many battles. This went to Quantai to recruit the old department, and the banner of 100,000 beheaded Yama. ”

The war poem containing the power of the true text and the holy words sounded in the rear of the army, and the blood and qi of the army vibrate, slowly forming a virtual shadow of the flag!

"Xinjiang smoke rises everywhere, and this head must be hung to Chumen. After the death, the monarchs worked hard, and the good news flew to be used as paper money. Dedication to Changding is home, and there should be an end to blood and rain. Take righteousness and become benevolent today, and Kyushu is full of free flowers. ”

The blood-red banner shrouded the army like a substance, and many generals all felt that their spirits were extremely excited, and a powerful force poured into their bodies.

As the three chapters of Chang Ding were finished, three two-meter-long armor-piercing giant arrows emitted a terrifying sound of breaking the sky, and shot towards Zuo Ping at an incomparably alarming speed.

Before the sound came, the giant arrow had already arrived in front of Zuo Ping!

Zuo Ping shouted in front of the battle, wondering why Chang Dingjun didn't move, and then he found that three white lights were coming, and the speed was so fast that it was difficult to catch it with the naked eye, and his face turned pale with fright!

Three white lights, one of which shot straight at Zuo Ping, and two blocked his left and right sides!

Zuo Ping didn't have time to scold Chang Dingjun for his shamelessness.

In the end, he is the pinnacle level of the Four-Rank Martial Sect, when it comes to combat power, even if he is not as good as Qin Shengnan at the beginning, it is not much different, in this lightning moment, his wrist flicked suddenly, and the nine-section refined iron whip flicked up like a black giant python, and it was extremely swift and entwined towards one of the white lights.

The iron whip was tightly entangled with the giant arrows that shot at him, and the fine iron whip was made of a mixture of copper mother and steel, which was extremely tough, and the power of the Eight Ox Armor-Piercing Crossbow could not tear off the iron whip.

However, the power of the giant arrow was too terrifying, and the iron whip instantly stretched straight, and Zuo Ping only felt that a huge force was transmitted along the iron whip to his palm.

This iron whip is Zuo Ping's extremely cherished second-grade divine soldier, and he is reluctant to let go, so he grabs the handle of the whip and grabs the whip handle, and the whole person is pulled up from the silver-horned giant wolf by a giant arrow!

It's a pity that Zuo Hao didn't know that there was not only one Eight Bull Armor-Piercing Crossbow in the Changding Army, but three white lights shot out.

Zuo Ping, who was in mid-air, had no way to dodge, and there was no time to dodge, and with a miserable scream, a blood hole the size of a bowl appeared in his chest, and he was pierced diagonally through his chest by a two-meter-long three-edged armor-piercing giant arrow, and he died instantly!

The silver-horned giant wolf in the fourth-grade realm also couldn't dodge the shooting of the armor-piercing giant arrow, and died tragically on the spot.

A general of the Standing Ding Army, even a man and a wolf died aggrievedly under the Eight Bull Armor-Breaking Crossbow.

The generals of the Yongzhou Army trembled with anger, but at this time, the drums of the various departments of the Changding Army made a loud noise, the wall of steel shields suddenly fell back, and the sound of the bowstring vibrating sounded almost at the same time, and thousands of armor-piercing arrows poured towards the Yongzhou Army like a storm!

The Changding Army is an elite army trained under the military concept of the later generations of the Chu River, and naturally it also integrates the idea of the future generations of the Chu River being the king remotely.

Although he didn't know how to build a musket, the steel bow was definitely more useful than the musket in such a cold weapon battle, and the ten-stone strong bow combined with the strength of the soldiers was enough to extend the range to two miles.

Therefore, in the Standing Army, the largest number of troops is the steel archers, in each guard, in addition to the formation of 5,000 steel archers, others such as scouts, scorpion tail wings, tiger cavalry, horse cavalry, etc., are equipped with steel bows, and the number of archers has even reached an outrageous 6,000.

The most elite Qianyuan Guard, everyone carries a bow, and among the quivers, there are twenty steel arrows and ten three-edged armor-piercing arrows.

This is also the reason why Xiang Xiong did not send cavalry to attack the opponent's army formation, but set up an ironclad array outside Lixu!

An army of 30,000 and 15,000 archers attacked at the same time, using the most destructive three-edged armor-piercing arrows, shooting at the elite of the Yongzhou army, which was waiting for the battle, you can imagine what kind of effect it will cause!

Lu Kai can no longer be said to be distressed, it is simply painful, this team has followed him for more than ten years, has gone through many wars, and under the pursuit of the three-state coalition army, the 20,000 elite soldiers who were finally saved fell in pieces under a round of arrow rain.

The armor on the body of these elite soldiers, the shields in their hands, under the armor-piercing arrows, are no different from pieces of paper, and the armor-piercing arrows with amazing power can even cause dense damage to the soldiers behind them after penetrating a soldier.

A round of arrow rain, there are thousands of elite deaths, their skilled martial arts, well-trained battle formations, sharpened blades, can not play any role, under the power of the steel bow, these soldiers are just pigs and sheep to be slaughtered.

What made Lu Kai's eyes crack was that after a round of arrow rain, the Changding army's drums sounded again, and another round of thousands of arrows was launched, and once again many elite Yongzhou soldiers were shot on the spot.

The steel bow was strong and the arrow path was straight, and it was impossible to use the throwing method, so it could only shoot the enemy in the front row, so the 15,000 steel archers of the Changding Army did not launch an offensive at the same time, so as not to waste arrows, but fired in three rounds.

Without waiting for the Yongzhou army to react, after three rounds of arrow rain, more than 2,000 horses had been killed and wounded on the Yongzhou army's side.

Ordinary soldiers are impossible to resist the power of armor-piercing arrows, and only those elite and strong soldiers in the military formation, three or four rank martial artists Wu Zong, a few martial artists can escape a catastrophe, and the others are either killed or injured if they are shot by steel arrows.

But the fact that the two or three hundred elite generals who survived the rain of arrows alone does not mean that they have already escaped the scythe of death.
