Chapter 296: Opening Battle (100 Monthly Passes and Updates)
"Huh! These Liao dogs look a little strange, could it be the Liao country's distant scout? ”
Looking at the position of more than a mile in front of the battle, those Liao soldiers who could still drive their horses forward quickly even on the road full of mud puddles, baggage and other obstacles.
Chen Feng, that is, a gust of wind.
This twenty-year-old rookie, who is also from the Monan region, was suddenly in doubt, and couldn't help but mutter.
At this moment, he is squatting on a big cart.
On one side of the cart, several wooden planks with a height of one meter were erected, and the planks were originally three centimeters thick, which could completely defend against the opponent's arrow rain.
And between a few planks, there is now a temporary clip on a beam, which is supported by solid locust pillars.
In this way, even if the Liao soldiers rode their war horses against these temporary wooden walls and rushed hard, they might not be able to break through such wooden walls in one or two strokes.
Now, it's because it's so well protected.
A gust of wind, a rookie, was able to stay behind the plank with peace of mind, and through a palm-sized shooting hole, he saw the opponent who appeared in front of him.
As a young man who has been working on the Internet for a long time and likes to watch overhead.
For some basic knowledge of the Liao army, there is still a gust of wind.
For example, he knew that with the Liao Dynasty military system, every time the Liao army went on an expedition, it would divide the troops and horses into three parts: the escort army, the vanguard army, and the expeditionary reconnaissance and blocking horses, and each would have a general under his command.
Among them, dozens to 10,000 people were selected to form a reconnaissance force to go deep into the enemy area, listen to the enemy's reality, and strangle the opponent's scouts and sentinels, so as to ensure the smooth advance of the army.
Such a fierce elite soldier is called a long-range detective blocker.
Soon after, a gust of wind confirmed such a conjecture, because the number of people who appeared at the moment was no more than fifty or sixty.
Not only were they quite well-equipped, but under one man and two horses, each of them wore a fine iron armor with fish scales and an iron helmet on their heads.
What's more, there is a lot of morale skyrocketing.
Seeing that there was a car formation blocking the road in front of them, they did not chase and kill those routs who only knew how to flee for their lives and did not know how to resist, like soft persimmons.
actually targeted Hu Biao and others.
The group, led by a leading officer, stopped for a moment in front of the formation, about four or five hundred meters away.
Then they dismounted, after a new horse.
There was a whistle from his mouth, and with at most one-ninth of the defender's troops, he took the initiative to attack the car formation.
That posture is a little bit of a disdain for Hu Biao, a gust of wind, and their hundreds of people as if they were nothing.
It seems that the previous battle also made the remaining remnants of the Liao State defeated, and the fighting courage and confidence that were once lost in the Jurchens, now successfully regained in the Great Song Dynasty.
It's just that Hu Biao's death hit the street, and it was all kinds of preparations in advance for more than ten days in advance.
Looking at the appearance of these people charging, a gust of wind clearly knew that these people were just asking for their own death now......

"Double bow bed crossbow ready, put ~"
Almost at the beginning, an officer who was probing the horse from afar, took the lead and desperately slapped the war horse, and rushed to a position about 300 meters in front of the car formation.
In the ears of a gust of wind, I first heard Hu Biao holding the broken horn and shouting at the top of his throat.
After hearing such a sentence, a gust of wind even fell silent at that time for the sake of these Liao elites, and the next encounter.
Because the so-called double-bow bed crossbow is a kind of large-scale crossbow arrow in the Song army with a bow at the front and back, twisted with a rope shaft, and a wooden bed to support the crossbow.
And the 4 planes that Yang Dongli managed to get, although they belong to the medium model, they are still large equipment that requires five to six people to complete the winding and operation.
The crossbow arrows used in this thing are still slightly shorter in length than the spears used by Hu Biao and others.
But to a coarse extent, it is much stronger; After this thing is taut and the tendon is shot out, the power can naturally be imagined.
What's more, after such equipment fell into the hands of Wolf Qing and others, where could it not be modified.
Even if there are too many things that Wolf Qing and the others need to do recently, they have only made some limited modifications to these bed crossbows.
That is, some cow tendons were twisted into a bowstring, and several small pulley sets were installed.
But it also succeeded in making this thing more powerful and range, but it was much simpler and easier to wind.
In addition, a wooden disc is installed under the crossbow body, which makes it easier to adjust the direction.
As for the real lethality? A gust of wind immediately had an intuitive understanding.
When Hu Biao's mouth dragged the command with a long tail sound, the wolf Qing, who was carrying a gavel on his shoulder, waved the gavel with both hands and smashed the trigger.
A little farther away, Wu Shu, Lao Tie, and Yu Hanfeng, the three of them made the same move almost at the same time.
So in the sound of 'Duang, Duang~', four thick crossbow arrows pierced those Liao soldiers like meteors.
Because the formation of these fellows, who are currently charging along the dirt road, is a little denser; So all but one of the ballistas missed, the remaining three all hit the target.
Two of them directly pierced into the chest of the oncoming war horse.
It's like a hot knife piercing butter, and in the blink of an eye, it's the one that goes deeper than a meter.
The huge force carried on the crossbow arrow instantly made the galloping war horse stop charging alive, and fell to the ground after four hooves; By the way, he also threw one of the knights above away.
The remaining crossbow arrow is the one that Wolf Qing fired when he aimed and hammered the trigger.
After directly shooting the head of a war horse, he continued to fly and shot the knight on horseback through the chest and abdomen, and was also shot dead on the spot.
Then the remaining crossbow arrow, with a corpse weighing more than 200 catties after counting the armor, continued to fly, and shot to death a Liao soldier who couldn't dodge.
In a hurry, a one-handed shield blocking in front of him was shot through without any effect.
It can be said that in an instant, these four modified double-bow bed crossbows showed the great power of the cavalry's nemesis.
It's a pity that even if the new pulley set is installed after the modification, Wolf Qing and the others are facing the double-bow bed crossbow that has just been shot empty, and if they want to complete the loading, they still need to take people to rebuild for a while.
The whole process, however, seems to be more troublesome than loading a World War II-era howitzer.
Therefore, these four powerful weapons of war, on the way of the remaining probe blockers, I am afraid that there is no chance to fire again.
Detective Interception Horse, it is worthy of always being the elite of the Liao soldiers, and there are four people in an instant.
Even the officers at the head were killed by crossbow arrows, and the rest of the personnel were actually hesitant and timid at this moment.
On the contrary, after one person took over the command, he yelled and issued a new order.
It probably means that Song Jun's bed crossbow is troublesome to reload, as long as he rushes over as soon as possible, he will be fine.
Suddenly, the remaining personnel whipped the war horses under their crotches more and more frantically, making them charge faster than before.
There is no idea of retreating at all and waiting for reinforcements to come......
