Seventy The wind is howling

……

Thousands of horsemen rode vertically and horizontally, setting up a line outside the earth city, galloping towards the oasis beyond the trees.

Wanda was a fierce soldier who was not afraid of death, and his face was as hideous as that of a mad hyena, holding his command knife high on the back of a bumpy horse, and his legs clamped between the horse's belly, making a roar like a groundhog.

The rolling yellow sand rolls up the clouds, the hooves are galloping, and the momentum is magnificent.

On the Gobi near the oasis, Xia Yu, who was in charge of guarding the main road, had already sensed the enemy's motives through the speculum.

"Can't hold your breath so soon? No, why are there only more than a thousand centaurs? Xia Yu put down the scope and looked confused, "Or do they think they can use this thousand men and horses to try in vain to break through the defense line laid by General Ben?" ”

After pondering for a moment, he commanded the flag behind him: "Order, crossbowmen prepare, the enemy cavalry enters the firing range and kills on the spot, and must not be allowed to get close to the water source!" ”

"Whoa!"

The next moment, the flag bearer led the order to jump down the Gobi Desert and waved the red flag to the Han army guarding and inside.

When the crossbow troops heard the order, they immediately lined up under the command of the generals of their headquarters.

The archers bent their bows and arrows in the back, and the crossbowmen loaded their crossbows in front of them, aiming their cold arrows at the billowing sand.

There was no expression on each soldier's face, only a hint of imperceptible excitement in the depths of his cold pupils.

This is a group of warriors born to kill, hungry for exploits, hungry for honor, and even more eager to be recognized.

And the galloping cavalry, in the eyes of this group of cold-blooded Han troops, is just a group of rabble waiting to be slaughtered, and it is their own military exploits.

"飕~"

The first archer opened his bow full circle, and a feathered arrow with a blue satin tail immediately broke out of its string, whistling through the air, and then nailed deep into the soft sand.

"One hundred and sixty steps!"

The rangefinder detected the distance of the arrow from the speculum and immediately passed the value aloud to the crossbow troops.

The two thousand crossbowmen took a deep breath and waited quietly for the enemy cavalry to come into range.

Wanda, on the other hand, didn't realize that he was about to fall into the forbidden land of death, and still buried himself in commanding the army to gallop, wanting to break through the Han army's defense line in one fell swoop.

Just a moment when the smoke and dust rolled up drowned the ranging feather arrow......

"Wind~~"

The commander roared, and then a rapid brass whistle rang out in the middle of the formation.

"Fluttering ......"

The next moment, a rain of arrows rose into the sky, covering half of the sky.

"Ah......h

Wanda realized that something was wrong, and looked at the rain of arrows that fell in the air, her expression froze for a while, and she even forgot how to respond.

"Poof, poof, poof, poof......"

"Huh~~"

"Ah~~"

The next moment, the rain of arrows fell into the sky, pouring into the cavalry bushes, blooming countless blood flowers, and for a while, people turned on their backs, wailing and roaring.

One of the Kushan cavalrymen was told that during the gallop, an arrow was pierced through the chest, and the leather on his body did not provide any protection, and the arrow lost his balance on the horse's back in an instant, and fell to the dust in pain.

The other cavalryman instinctively leaned down to dodge two feathered arrows, but his mount was not so lucky, being plunged into the bow by a sharp feathered arrow.

The neighing of the horse in pain aroused the beastly nature, and in one fell swoop the horseman on horseback, and then he himself rolled forward, crushing him under him, and shattering his sternum on the spot.

There was also a cavalryman who dodged the deadly arrows, but his companion who fell to the ground in front of him blocked the direction of progress, and in order to prevent tripping, he constantly instigated the horse to move the obstacle.

As a result, he collided with another friendly soldier who was also in the same mind, and fell off his horse, being crushed into a ball of flesh by the galloping iron hooves......

The first wave of arrow rain offensive has disrupted the array of Wanda's army, and the originally neat array has become chaotic at this moment.

And their tension has not subsided, and the second wave of arrows has once again rained down.

"Puff ......"

Each arrow is nailed into the body, bringing a little bit of blood, and gradually turning the body temperature of the people and horses cold.

Before the battle, Wanda's men and horses had lost more than half, including casualties caused by the rain of arrows, but more were caused by trampling on each other.

"Don't mess around! No chaos! Listen to my orders, charge, rush over, as long as you rush over, you can crush all this group of despicable Han people to pieces! Kill! My valiant Kushan knights, show your courage, follow General Ben, crush the enemy's conspiracy, and kill~"

Wanda's eyes were red, and she loudly boosted her morale, vowing to break through the Han defense line ahead.

However, his cavalry was one hundred and twenty paces away from the Xia Yu defensive line.

At this time, the crossbowmen, who had already been eager to fight, couldn't wait to buckle the index finger with the finger sleeve on the trigger of the crossbow, just waiting for an order, and they could get the coveted military feats.

These Han soldiers are all veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time and have experienced the test of blood and fire, and some have been members of the border army since Liu Ce's recovery of the northwest.

Craving!

"Disease~"

The enemy cavalry entered a hundred paces, and the command to shoot crossbow arrows instantly reached everyone's ears.

"Whew~~"

A thousand crossbowmen divided into several columns, and in turn pulled the trigger in an orderly manner.

In an instant, the dense "poisonous snakes" flew straight in, smashed into the cavalry, and set off a bloody storm again.

Edari was originally the child of a merchant in Kushan, and his family was bullied by the nobles since he was a child.

In order to change this situation, at the age of fifteen, he made up his mind to join the Kushan Army, believing that this move would bring honor to his family.

Now that ten years have passed, Edari is not sure whether what he has done has brought honor to his family, the only thing that has changed is that he feels that joining the Kushan Army is a wise choice.

As a lowly clan of Kushan, he repeatedly plundered the hinterland of the Yue Clan with the army, where he enjoyed a different life.

As long as you have force, those women, the wealth is your own.

When Elida insulted the women and children of the Yue Clan, and looked at the unarmed Yue citizens looking at him in fear, his humble heart was satisfied like never before.

He felt as if he was at the top of the food chain, he could get everything he wanted with the butcher's knife in his hand, and he had violated dozens of foreign women and children in the past ten years, and he had also gained a lot of wealth.

But all this ......

"Poof~"

"Uh~"

Elida on horseback only felt a suffocation in his chest, looked down, a crossbow arrow sank into his chest, and only felt his body temperature disperse rapidly with his rapid breathing.

He groaned, and before he could feel the pain, he felt his vision blur and his body stumble uncontrollably on the horse's back.

"Bang~"

Eventually, Elida fell into the dust, ending her life of sin.

Between the crossbow arrows roaring, the Kushan cavalry was like an autumn harvest wheat wave, turning over layer by layer, sixty steps away from the front of the formation, and it had become an impassable forbidden area.

After several rounds of shooting, in the entire Kushan cavalry, only Wanda was left alone, still roaring loudly and charging into battle.

Seeing this, the crossbowman officer couldn't help but be furious: "Blanch, it's really hard, who can give that guy who cries wolf an arrow, and when he goes back, Lao Tzu invites him to drink, grape or rice wine, you choose!" ”

"飕~"

As soon as the words fell, one of the crossbowmen in the formation decisively pulled the trigger.

"Poof~"

The crossbow arrow galloped, piercing Wanda's throat with a single blow, and the huge lifting force forced it away from the horse's back and landed heavily on the ground.

"Hey, hahahaha~"

Seeing this, the officer couldn't help but laugh.

But soon, he couldn't laugh anymore, and only heard the crossbowman who shot the enemy general playfully say: "General Huang Shen, you promised, you can turn back and make enough grapes, and there is no joke in the army." ”

Huang Shen smacked his lips, and didn't know how to reply for a while, so he immediately changed the topic and shouted angrily: "What are you doing in a daze? Clean up the battlefield! ”

At the same time, he slapped himself hard, this grape is worth a lot of money......

After the fierce battle......

The cold wind is whining, the yellow sand is permeated, and in front of the empty Gobi Desert, corpses are everywhere.

Starin, who witnessed this scene on the earth city, couldn't say a word, and stood on the spot.

After a long time, he found a way to comfort himself: "At least, there will be fewer people grabbing water to drink." ”
