With the sound of earth-shattering war drums, a hundred bed crossbows were pushed to the front of the battlefield.

Lin Chong stood beside the crossbow on the bed, his expression extremely serious.

After the army entered Taihe City, they found more than 100 bed crossbows wrapped in oil paper from the arsenal and had not yet had time to be transported away by Pan Meng.

Fortunately, he started early, otherwise these bed crossbows would have fallen into the hands of Shan Yue, and the consequences would have been unimaginable.

With these bed crossbows as an auxiliary, with the elite of the Chu army, even if the Shanyue army has 50,000, it can fight with it.

Kan Ling held the Mo knife upside down, and led the Danyang elite soldiers to appear at the front of the military formation, quietly waiting for the order.

This thousand Danyang elite pawns were trained by His Majesty with a lot of effort and money, and they are both offensive and defensive, extremely brave, and good at small-scale combined attacks. It can be said that among the infantry of the Chu army, no one can stand out.

One thousand Danyang elite soldiers, plus the rest of the foot soldiers, carried the first few rounds of attacks in Shanyue, and in Kan Ling's opinion, there was no problem at all.

"Liu joins the army, go with this king to meet this ancestral mountain for a while, dare to start a rebellion against the imperial court, this king wants to see who this person is."

Zhao Yun, who was in the Chinese army, put down the clairvoyant mirror in his hand, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said such a thing.

After the surrounding soldiers saw Zhao Yun's calm expression, some worries that had arisen due to the large number of enemies disappeared in an instant, and they subconsciously straightened their spines.

Liu Renliang nodded slightly, he understood Zhao Yun's intentions.

The army is conquered, and the division is famous.

Now that the Chu army is on the side that occupies the righteousness, it would be great if it could use words to hit Shanyue's morale.

I saw dozens of generals guarding a general walking to the front of the Chu army, the first one, eight feet long, thick eyebrows and big eyes, broad face, majestic, majestic, majestic.

This person rode a white horse without a trace of miscellaneous hair from head to tail, dressed in white helmet and white armor, wearing a white robe, and holding a bright silver spear, which was unforgettable at first sight.

"My handsome family will let your family master answer the battle!"

A general tore his throat and shouted towards Shanyue.

"Answering before the battle?"

Zuling, who got the news, was a little unclear.

In the past, when they were fighting with the Chu army, after the two armies met, they started fighting directly, and there was no shouting before the battle at all.

"What kind of reputation is this Chu people doing?"

"Ancestral leader, this is a common pre-battle answer in the Central Plains countries." Elder Zhiding explained. "If one side takes the lead, it will have an impact on the morale of the other side."

Buddhism is deeply rooted in the military and political circles of Qi State, and he still knows some of the default rules of the war between the two armies.

Zu Ling sneered and said, "Under the command of this leader, there are all good men in Shanyue, how can they listen to the nonsense of the Chu people." After the leader defeated all the more than 10,000 men and horses of the Chu army, what so-called righteousness is nothing in front of the brave Shanyue warriors! ”

Yi?

What is that?

They only know the fist!

Whoever has the big fist has the final say!

For the 50,000 army under his command, even if Jin Gan was defeated for a while before, Zu Ling was still very confident.

Taihe Ridge is rich in minerals, and with copper ore and iron ore, Shanyue was able to create weapons by himself, so as to form a military confrontation with the Chu court.

However, due to the crudeness of the smelting technique, Yamagoe could only make weapons, but not armor.

Even so, with the steep terrain of Taihe Ridge and the courage and skill of the barbarians, even if they encountered the encirclement and suppression of the Chu State, they were fearless.

When encountering a small force of troops, they can directly eat by virtue of their brute bravery; When the main force of the Chu army was discovered, it retreated into the dense mountains and forests, and used the terrain to consume the Chu army, and it was often the Chu army that could not hold on to the retreat in the end.

Therefore, whether there is armor or not is not too important for Yamagoe.

When Zuling's tribe was in his father's reign, there were only more than 10,000 warriors under his command, although it belonged to the first place in each village, but the others united, and his father was helpless.

Now, under his leadership, the strength of his own tribe has not only risen sharply, but even the villages have expressed their submission to his force, and there are all kinds of ordnance and materials secretly sent by Pan Meng, coupled with the assistance transported by the Qi State, the strength of the entire Shanyue is far stronger than a few years ago, which makes Zuling not complacent.

In his eyes, with 50,000 Shanyue warriors fighting against more than 10,000 Chu troops, how can it be unreasonable?

It's just that, compared to Zu Ling's self-confidence, Master Zhiding's mood is a little dignified.

Not to mention that the monarchs and ministers of the Qi State all agreed that the Chu army was far from being comparable to the past, and that before the battle, such a contempt for the enemy army should not appear on Zu Ling, who was the main general.

Since the new emperor of Chu State ascended the throne, the Chu army defeated the Burmese army in the south and the Qi army in the north.

Could this Zuling not think that his hastily formed Shanyue barbarian army was stronger than the regular armies of Qi and Burma?

Not putting the Chu army in your eyes like this is really a taboo for soldiers!

At this moment, there was another shout from the front of the opposing military formation.

"Let your head of the family come out to answer? Why, the legendary Shanyue warriors are not shrunken turtles? ”

As the words fell, Zu Ling only felt that his eyes were looking at him.

Cunning Chu people!

Scolding in his heart, Zu Ling snorted coldly: "Okay, I'm going to listen to what these Chu people have to say?" Generals, go out with the leader! ”

After that, he led the generals of the big and small mountains to the front of the battle.

Seeing Zhao Yun, Zuling made a preemptive strike and shouted: "You and the Chu people killed my Shanyue soldiers for no reason, and invaded my Shanyue territory, I don't know what the reason is?" ”

He was preemptive.

"Invading your territory for no reason?"

Unexpectedly, a sneer appeared on the corner of Zhao Yun's mouth, and he asked coldly:

"Zuling, Ben Shuai and ask you, what official position do you have, and you dare to say such a thing? This land south of the Yangtze River is all my territory of Great Chu, and the people of Jiangnan are all the people of my Great Chu. Er and other mountains did not obey the king, burned, killed and looted, and colluded with the thieves, intending to attack Taihe City. The evidence of the crime is conclusive, how can you change it by shaking your lips! ”

In one sentence, Zhao Yun characterized the former Taihe City Taishou Pan Meng as an "anti-thief".

When Zu Ling heard this, he was speechless for a moment, and he didn't know how to refute it for a while.

The relationship between Shanyue and the court of Chu is not good, he is the leader of Shanyue, where did he get the official position of Chu?

As for what Zhao Yun said, he was clumsy, and when it came to righteousness, he was not the opponent of the Chu people at all.

After his complexion changed for a while, Zu Ling gritted his teeth and raised his arms and shouted:

"I, the Shanyue clan, are the people of the mountains. The Chu people are vicious, committing our mountains and deceiving our mountain people, which is really a great crime. Such a blood feud must be avenged! ”

As he spoke, he looked around at the generals and said in a loud voice:

"You are all the warriors of my Shanyue, who is willing to go and cut off this head and avenge the people of my Shanyue?"

Zu Ling saw that he couldn't say anything about the other party, so he directly chose to go to war, as long as Shanyue won in the end, then the rest of the matter would be much simpler.

No matter how sharp his mouth is, he can't match the sharp sword after all.

As soon as Zu Ling's voice fell, he saw a barbarian general riding a horse and dancing a knife, and rushed out.

"I am the warrior Zhuo Feng, and the Chu thief quickly stepped forward to die!"

Jingam, who was a step too late, had to restrain his horse and sigh softly.

This head work made Zhuo Feng rob it.

Zhao Yun's eyes moved slightly, and he was about to make a move in person, but Kan Ling beside him hurriedly said:

"Just a little thief, how to work for the big handsome, the last general will cut off his head and dedicate it to the big handsome as a night pot!"

After that, without waiting for Zhao Yun to speak, he raised the Mo knife and rushed towards Zhuo Feng on his horse.

The two horses intersected, just a combination, but when the tragic sword light flashed, Zhuo Feng was split in half by Kan Leng's knife.

"Just seven grades, dare to come to death?" Kan Ling made a great contribution with a knife, and his heart was very happy, and he shouted, "Wait for traitors, quickly come again, let grandpa have another addiction!" ”

"Damn! Kill my friend, pay with your life! ”

In the Shanyue array, seeing Zhuo Feng's tragic death, You Ying, who had always been good friends with him, suddenly burst into tears, and without waiting for Zuling to speak, he rode his horse and held an axe and killed Kan Ling.

Kan Ling waved his knife to greet him.

The two of them fought together in front of the two armies.

"This guy is so brave!"

After fighting Shihe, he noticed that the other party was also an eight-rank master, and his strength alone was even a little higher than his own, Kan Ling couldn't help frowning slightly, but soon had a plan.

The two fought again, Kan Ling sold a flaw, let the barbarian dip the gold axe to his waist obliquely, but he came to a stirrup to hide, flashed the axe, and then exhaled, a move to split Huashan, only a knife, then the barbarian general who did not have time to change the move was headed, and returned to the main formation with high spirits.

Seeing that he had lost two battles in a row and lost two generals one after another, Zu Ling was so angry that his mouth was crooked, and he no longer spoke, but just waved his hand forward.

I can't fight with my mouth, and I can't fight with my generals, since this is the case, then I will directly press the army and start a war!

Woo –

The sound of the vast horn echoed in the sky above the Shanyue army.

The barbarians who heard the sound of the horn began to attack the Chu army camp noisily under the leadership of their respective leaders.

"Want to fight? Then fight! Zhao Yun looked at the approaching Shanyue barbarian soldiers, and snorted coldly, "Let this group of frogs at the bottom of the well see the strength of my Chu army!" ”

Accompanied by Zhao Yun's order, the middle army of the Chu army suddenly sounded a shocking war drum.

"Fight! War! War! ”

In the sound of the passionate war drums, the soldiers of Chu only felt extremely excited, which seemed to arouse the courage in their hearts.

Hearing the drums and marching out, singing gold and retreating, this is the most basic common sense of the soldiers.

The soldiers beat their shields with their weapons while marching to the predetermined position under the command of the colonel and setting up their formations.

Accompanied by the sound of war drums and trumpets, the soldiers of both sides slowly approached the battlefield.

Although the Shanyue barbarians all over the mountains give people a strong sense of oppression.

The harsh environment in the Taihe Ridge has made the Shanyue people develop a brave habit. In the face of war, they are not as fearful as ordinary armies, but on the contrary, they become fearless of death in order to fight for living space and means of subsistence.

For the victorious warriors, any enemy who stood in their way to victory would become a skeleton under their swords.

But for the veterans of the Chu army who had experienced the previous fierce battles, Shanyue's momentum was nothing.

No matter how strong Shanyue is, is it still stronger than the regular armies of Burma and Qi?

Even if there is no difference in battle spirit, but in terms of equipment, the difference between the two is not half a star!

"Hold the spear flat, and don't shake your hands!"

"Don't be in a hurry to release the arrows, wait for these barbarians to get closer, and then release them when you hear Shangguan's order!"

"The shield should be stuck diagonally on the ground, slow down your breathing, don't be nervous!"

"Yamakoshi is also a human being, just like us, two shoulders and one head, what's so scary!"

Veterans who had experienced blood and fire did not forget to pass on the experience they had gained in exchange for their lives before the battle, so that they could survive the brutal battlefield.

At the sound of the horn, the Shanyue barbarian army soon came to a distance of less than three hundred paces from the Chu army.

Three hundred steps seems like a long way, but for those soldiers who control the bed crossbow, these three hundred steps are the forbidden area of death.

As long as the enemy dares to enter the range of 300 paces, they will be greeted by deadly crossbow arrows.

With the sound of the machine, huge crossbow arrows with the thickness of an arm shot towards the Shanyue barbarians with a terrible whistling sound.

Even if the barbarians were relatively loose in their camp when they charged, a salvo of 100 bed crossbows also took the lives of more than 300 Shanyue people.

After penetrating the first Shanyue soldier, many crossbow arrows passed through the chest of the second and third Shanyue soldiers again with strong inertia, as if wearing meat skewers, and some even shot four or five Shanyue soldiers in a row before exhausting their kinetic energy.

This distance of 300 paces is enough for a bed crossbow to shoot three to four rounds.

Although for the 50,000-strong Shanyue army, the casualties of more than 1,000 people were not enough to break the bones and bones, the tragic situation of the soldiers before their deaths dealt a heavy blow to their morale.

The Shanyue barbarians who rushed to the forefront were the elite of Shanyue, they were wearing the armor of the Chu army smuggled by Pan Meng, and the blades in their hands were also the most sophisticated, but even so, in front of the bed crossbow, it did not bring them the slightest sense of security.

Before the wails of his companions before they died, some people were shot to the ground by the long-range attacks of the Chu people one after another......

The brave Shanyue barbarians had never encountered such a scene, and they had already suffered such a painful loss without even touching the corner of the enemy's skirt.

The Shanyue barbarians who rushed to the front subconsciously slowed down.

"These idiots, slowing down will only make you die faster!" Zu Ling saw some flinching soldiers, and immediately scolded, "Blow the horn, let the law enforcement team come forward, and urge them to attack the Chu army's position!" ”

"Rush to Lao Tzu! Rush over, there is still hope for life! ”

Under the urging of the generals, the Shanyue barbarians had to bite the bullet and speed up their pace to rush towards the Chu army under the pressure of the law enforcement team.

In order to break through this death zone, these brutes squeezed out all the potential in their bodies.

The bed crossbow of the Chu army only had time to fire three rounds, and the Shanyue barbarians had already rushed to a distance of more than a hundred steps from the Chu army.

The soldiers of Chu with good eyes could even see the hideous and abnormal faces of the Shanyue people painted with oil paint.

Under the command of the general, more than 100 bed crossbows were quickly withdrawn to the rear of the Chu army's battle array.

The next thing to face Shanyue was the front of the Chu army with a thousand Danyang elite soldiers as the main force.
