The Sun family army also put up a defensive military formation.

Tuoba Yu looked at Prince Gong and Sun Ming, "Prince Gong and General Sun, this is our grievance between Xianbei and Pingzhou, you can just watch from the sidelines." Of course, if you have other ideas, we are not afraid. ”

Tuoba Yu's tone was arrogant, as if he didn't care about the Dali Imperial Court and Pingzhou joining forces, and they were confident that they could catch the two together.

General Sun frowned, he wanted to join forces with Pingzhou, the enemy is divided into inside and outside, no matter what, Xianbei is a foreigner, or a brutal foreigner, just have a chance to annihilate them.

But Prince Gong didn't allow it, their Dali court had already negotiated terms with Xianbei, and now they are making a big move, and it's okay to win, if they lose, who knows what the consequences will be?

Moreover, the Xianbei army and the Pingzhou traitors are about to fight, and Prince Gong is simply overjoyed.

Under the suppression of Prince Gong, the Sun family army did not move, but Tuoba Xun did not put all the Xianbei troops into the battlefield, obviously to guard against any contingencies.

The Xianbei army and the bow battalions of Pingzhou set up their positions.

The archers of the Xianbei army were in position and ready to attack.

Pingzhou, on the other hand, put on a defensive posture.

At the beginning of the negotiations, under the reminder of Pingzhou, the imperial court clearly demanded that Xianbei could not bring cavalry, and if it did, then it would not be discussed.

The Xianbei royal court agreed, and they were also arrogant, feeling that even if there were no cavalry, their Xianbei infantry would still defeat the Dali soldiers.

As the horn of Xianbei's attack sounded, the Xianbei soldiers slowly advanced with shields and archers with bows and arrows.

After the distance between the two sides was shortened to a certain extent, the Xianbei soldiers began to shoot the arrows in their hands.

Pingzhou is not doing much here, and the generals of the Sun family army who are watching from the sidelines frowned, do the Xianbei archers have such a long range?

Sun Congyi, who was hidden in the Sun family's army, was also worried, he knew too well the level of the bow and arrow battalion of the Great Li Army, which was not as good as Xianbei. Now that the Pingzhou Bow and Arrow Battalion is facing it, won't it be pressed and beaten by the Xianbei army?

At this moment, the Pingzhou Bow and Arrow Battalion also moved.

What is surprising is that not only the Pingzhou Bow Battalion suffered from the shooting of Xianbei archers, but the Xianbei shield men and archers also entered the range of the Pingzhou Bow Battalion.

The two sides went from the unilateral shooting of Xianbei archers to the mutual shooting of archers.

This change made Tuoba Patrol and the others frown.

In the past, because the arm strength and accuracy of the Xianbei archers were better than Dali's, their Xianbei range was longer than that of Dali's archers.

When the archers on both sides faced each other, they Xianbei had an absolute advantage, and a round of arrow rain was fired, which was an overwhelming blow to the Dali army.

Now Tuoba Patrol and Dugu Zhong and others have found that the strength of the archery battalion in Pingzhou is not weak, and they are not inferior to them at all. That is, their humble archers did not have an advantage.

At this time, there were also some riots in the vanguard of the Xianbei army.

The Xianbei archers found that if they were far away, the arrows they shot could not help each other, and if they went forward, the hit rate was high, but they also entered the range of the other party.

The Pingzhou soldiers are the defenders, and they prohibit the order, fight steadily and steadily, and never shoot indiscriminately. They didn't panic in the slightest, wasting a bow and arrow.

The two sides fought back and forth.

The Youzhou soldiers on the side looked passionate, the Xianbei soldiers were fierce and brave, they had encountered the Xianbei soldiers in the wild before, and they were only abused.

Now they finally see an army that can stand up to the Xianbei army!

Stalemate!

The strength of the two sides is equal, and no one can help anyone!

Tuoba Patrol discussed with Dugu Zhong and Wei Chirui and decided to change the tactics!

The Xianbei soldiers have a burly physique and have an advantage in close combat. As long as their soldiers can rush to the Pingzhou soldiers, dealing with them is as simple as chopping melons and vegetables.

Under the command of Tuoba Patrol, Xianbei blew the horn of the charge.

Woo-chirp –

General Sun and the others unconsciously held their breath, "The Xianbei army is about to charge!" ”

A group of burly and sturdy Xianbei strong men rushed forward with Dunjia and broadswords, followed by Xianbei archers to press the formation, and finally Xianbei foot soldiers.

Xian Feng was next to Lu Desheng, protecting him nearby, and when he saw the Xianbei strong man rushing over, he pouted and said, "It's a pity that the elephant herd of our slang clan is not there, otherwise these people are not enough elephants one by one." ”

General Sun and other generals had a dignified face, if the Xianbei army successfully charged, the bow and arrow battalion in Pingzhou would be scattered.

The Dali soldiers had no advantage over the Xianbei soldiers.

"Look, General Qin Heng has changed the battle formation!"

Qin Heng saw that the Xianbei army was charging, and ordered the adjutant on the side, and the adjutant waved the formation flag vigorously, and the Pingzhou army directly beat the drum.

On the Pingzhou side, the battle formation also changed.

Originally, after a group of archers shot the arrows of the quiver, they took advantage of the gap between changing the quivers and then changed to another batch of archers.

Now the Pingzhou soldiers stood in three rows, taking turns to shoot.

The first row of soldiers shoots an arrow, bows back, and quickly switches to the second row of archers to shoot forward, and the third row of archers to stand by, and so on.

The bow battalion was forbidden, and the shooting rhythm was particularly good.

When the generals of the Sun family army saw this scene, their eyes lit up, "What kind of tactics is this?" "Everyone can be a general, and there is a strategic vision.

The Pingzhou Bow and Arrow Battalion is a tactic that makes up for the shortcomings of the low frequency of bow and arrow shooting when the arrows cannot be fired continuously.

If Qin Sheng was here, he would have kindly told them that this was a three-stage shooting method.

Under the passionate drumbeat, the archers of the Pingzhou Bow Battalion shot a dense rain of arrows and greeted the Xianbei soldiers.

The Xianbei soldiers were not afraid of death, and advanced against the rain of arrows.

As the saying goes, two fists are hard to beat four hands, and even if the Xianbei soldier who hit the head has a shield and a knife, he can't stop the dense and ubiquitous arrows from all angles.

The results of the battle were remarkable, and the Xianbei soldiers who took the lead fell one by one.

As soon as they fell, there was no shield to shield them, and the archers and soldiers behind them also suffered, and fell in droves.

Looking at this exciting scene, Prince Gong and other civil and military officials of Dali, as well as the Sun family's army, were all shocked.

Tuoba Patrol and the others had ugly faces, and it was obvious that their tactics were completely defeated against this special shooting method in Shangpingzhou.

"Go on, as long as Pingzhou's arrows are enough, it will be difficult for our warriors to break through the opponent's defense." Wei Chirui said bluntly.

Tuoba Patrol's face turned pale, and he knew very well that what General Wei Chi said was the truth.

Dugu Zhong also said, "It's a pity that our Xianbei cavalry is not here, and for a while, we can't help them." ”

Tuoba Yu: "Let them withdraw, and if they rush forward, they will die." ”

Woo woo - woo woo -

The horn of Xianbei's retreat sounded, and on the battlefield, the remaining Xianbei soldiers retreated like a tide.

The archery battalion in Pingzhou stopped shooting and was on standby, and they didn't even change their posture.
