Looking at the Yellow Turban Army approaching Chaoju County, Kong Rong and Liu Bei looked nervous.

Once these Yellow Turban soldiers are allowed to invade the city, then the consequences can be imagined.

The two of them couldn't help but complain a little about Hua Xiong in their hearts.

Hua Xiong's face was calm, and he didn't mean to panic at all.

The Yellow Turbans are getting closer and closer, and both sides can almost see each other's appearances.

Suddenly, Hua Xiong whistled.

Kong Rong, Liu Bei and others were stunned.

Gao Shun, who was under the city wall, heard this whistle and immediately shouted,

"Ready!"

The wolf soldiers immediately dispersed and formed a cross formation.

They took out a wooden crossbow and aimed at the Yellow Turbans in front of them.

Kong Rong, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei were stunned.

The wood that Hua Xiong asked for a few days ago was to build these crossbow arrows?

Crossbow arrows have many advantages over bows and arrows.

A qualified crossbow archer is trained, and that's very fast.

And to train a qualified archer, it takes years of training.

However, the reloading speed of crossbow arrows is slow, and the time taken to fire two shots is enough for a good archer to shoot four or five arrows.

In addition, crossbow arrows are relatively heavy and inconvenient to carry.

Therefore, the generals are more fond of bows and arrows.

In Kong Rong's opinion, Hua Xiong's desire to defeat the Yellow Turban Army with these crossbow arrows is simply a fool's dream!

The two armies were so close apart that the crossbow arrows fired a salvo at most, and the Yellow Turban Army was in front of them.

When the time comes, it will be the time when Gao Shun and them are defeated!

And Liao Hua and Zhou Cang on the opposite side saw this scene, and their thoughts were similar to those of Kong Rong.

Want to fight us in the field with crossbow arrows?

Daydreaming!

"Brothers, pick up the pace!"

Liao Hua roared loudly, waving the spear in his hand.

Just when the Yellow Turban Army was still a hundred steps away from Gao Shun and them, Gao Shun suddenly yelled again.

"Front team, let's go!"

The wolf sergeant in the front row pulled the trigger of the crossbow arrow in his hand.

"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ”

There was a series of cracks, and ten arrows shot out of their crossbows.

The yellow turban soldiers who rushed to the front lay directly on the ground.

But it wasn't too late, and the Yellow Turban soldiers, who followed the second row, the third row, and almost the tenth row, were all lying on the ground.

This scene directly made Liao Hua and Zhou Cang dumbfounded.

I'll go, what kind of crossbow arrow is this Nima, and it can still be fired in bursts?

Kong Rong, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei on the city wall were also dumbfounded.

The crossbow arrows in the world could only shoot one arrow.

Then you have to step on the string of the arrow with your foot to load the arrow and make a second shot.

When had they ever seen a crossbow bolt that could fire in bursts?

Not to mention being able to shoot ten arrows at once, it's a fantasy!

But how can they not be surprised that it is happening in front of them today?

"This ...... What is it? ”

Kong Rong stammered and asked.

"Well, this is the Wenhou repeater that I invented."

Hua Xiong's face was not red, and his heart was not beating.

"Ten arrows can be fired at a time, which is very powerful and easy to reload."

Everyone gasped.

Ten rounds at a time, and easy to reload, this is simply a big killer!

"The front team loads, the squadron comes forward, put!"

Following Gao Shun's command, the soldiers in the front row who had fired arrows retreated to the back row and reloaded.

A platoon of soldiers in the middle stepped forward and pulled the trigger again.

"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ”

Another barrage of arrows flew out.

The Yellow Turban soldiers fell down like wheat that had been cut.

"The squadron is loaded, the rear team comes forward, put!"

Gao Shun gave another command.

The soldiers in the back row stepped forward quickly and fired the arrows again.

By the time they had shot their crossbow arrows, the soldiers in the front row had finished loading.

And so the cycle began, and a round of shooting was completed.

Seeing this scene, Tai Shici couldn't help but ask,

"My lord, what kind of tactics is this?"

"It's a three-stage shoot. Because the crossbow arrows need to be reloaded, in order to avoid the enemy getting close, the soldiers are divided into three sections. ”

"When the first stage is fired, the second and third stages are on standby."

"When the second and third stages are finished, the first stage has been loaded and can be fired."

Hua Xiong explained.

This was originally a musket tactic in modern history, and Hua Xiong used it as a tactic for crossbow archers.

Tai Shici glanced at Hua Xiong deeply, and couldn't help but sigh,

"The military strategy of the lord, his subordinates really can't catch up."

After hearing this, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei on the side also felt waves in their hearts.

Although they don't like Hua Xiong, they have to admit it.

These three shooting methods are a perfect match for crossbow arrows!

This Hua Xiong can also research crossbow arrows, and can invent a three-stage shooting method, he is simply a demon!

Liao Hua and Zhou Cang on the battlefield were almost crying.

They lay dead on the ground, not daring to lift themselves up.

The sound of "whooshing" in the air above their heads was like the sound of death coming to ask for their lives, which made them tremble.

In ancient times, marching and fighting paid attention to maintaining a formation.

Only if the formation does not disperse, then the army can maintain its combat effectiveness.

Therefore, when the Yellow Turban Army attacked the wolf soldiers, it maintained a dense formation.

The Wenhou crossbow in the hands of the wolf sergeant fired a salvo and directly killed nearly 10,000 people!

Before the Yellow Turbans could react, the second salvo came again.

At this time, the Yellow Turban Army scattered as if they had just woken up from a dream.

But it was too late.

The Yellow Turban Army, which originally sprinted, had forty or fifty thousand people.

After the wolf sergeant went through two three-stage shooting methods, there were already dead corpses on the battlefield at this moment.

Preliminary estimates put at least 15,000 people dead.

The other Yellow Turbans who did not die were lying on the ground, trembling.

Guan Hai, who was watching the battle, took all the situations into his eyes.

At this moment, his face was also pale.

No wonder Huaxiong has the courage to fight in the field, it turns out that there is such a big killing weapon!

Looking at the dead corpses on the ground, Guan Hai was so distressed that he almost screamed!

"Brother Liao Hua, what should we do?"

Zhou Cang asked with a look of fear.

"I ...... I don't know. ”

Liao Hua also lost his initial courage, and his face was a little frightened.

It's not like he hasn't been on the battlefield and killed someone.

But he had never seen anyone kill like this.

A volley of bolts was fired, and the man fell like grass.

Such a bloody scene really scared Liao Hua.

"Why don't we climb back slowly?"

Zhou Cang suggested.

"Great idea!"

So the two of them clung to the ground and crawled back in an extremely obscene position.

The only remaining Yellow Turbans returned to the camp in the same way.

Seeing this, Kong Rong on the city wall was overjoyed.

"Master Taishi, let's take advantage of the victory to pursue and defeat the Yellow Turban Army!"

Hua Xiong smiled and shook his head,

"It's okay to pursue, but it's not necessary."

Then he ordered Gao Shun to withdraw to the county.

Kong Rong was stunned for a moment, and said unwillingly,

"Now that the Yellow Turban Army has been frightened and has no morale, if you don't chase it now, when will you stay?"
