After dropping nearly 10,000 corpses, the Xin barbarians finally withstood five volleys of red-coated ballistas and approached a distance of about a hundred paces from the fortifications. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 At this time, Xu Shu stopped the order to continue firing the cannon, and instead ordered the eight hundred ballistae to push the red-clothed ballista from the platform to the platform. Each of these red-clothed ballistas was extremely expensive, and Xu Shu didn't want them to be damaged. After the Xin barbarians entered their firing range, Xu Shu immediately put away the red-clothed ballista.

Sure enough, the Xin barbarians began their best stunt - rushing. The nearly 10,000 barbarian cavalry running in the front raised their bows at the same time, and began to shoot on horseback, nearly 10,000 arrows flew into the air, and after reaching the top, they turned sharply and fell towards the fortifications of the Yuan Qi army.

The reaction of the Xin barbarians had long been expected by Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu, and the platform that could carry the red-clothed ballistas had another function, which was to resist the Xin barbarians' shooting. Nearly 10,000 arrows were shot down densely, all of which failed to cause any damage to the enemy, most of them were blocked by the earthen wall and the platform at its top, and only a few arrows crossed the platform and fell to the earthen wall, but were easily shot down by the enemy with their weapons.

After a round of rushing fire, the Xin barbarians did not form any effective damage, and did not even hear a scream from the enemy, which was simply unimaginable in the past. Just when the Xin Barbarian cavalry was wondering, another bad luck for them came. With the gallop of the war horses, they have entered the trap area dug by the enemy, and those extremely hidden traps have been carefully covered by the members of the hidden dragon, and there is no abnormality in the appearance.

"Ahh There was no other sound, and it was clear that he had been impaled to death by the saber hanging upside down at the bottom of the trap. This unlucky Xinman cavalry opened the door to bad luck, and after him, the galloping Xinman cavalry fell into the trap one after another, and were stabbed into a hornet's nest by the saber at the bottom of the trap.

Because of the geology, the trap dug by the enemy is not deep, only one zhang deep. If it is deeper, the sandy desert will probably not be able to bear the weight of the hollowed out, and will collapse on its own. Although the depth is only one zhang, but the victory is numerous, and these traps have caused great trouble for the Xinman cavalry. A large number of Xin Barbarian cavalry were lucky enough not to die after falling into the trap. The war horses under them. They blocked the saber at the bottom of the trap, but before they could breathe a sigh of relief, another tribesman fell into the same trap, and the hooves of the clansmen's horses struck them on the heads, smashing out their brains.

A one-foot deep trap that can accommodate up to three Xinman cavalry and their horses. When the countless traps were filled with bodies and war horses by the Xin barbarians, the Xin barbarian cavalry who rushed to the forefront lost thousands of people. It will be buried forever in the yellow sand of the desert, and it will never see the light of day. A gust of wind blew, and the wind unique to the desert drove the subtle grains of sand to move, completely filling the trap dug by the enemy, and also burying the barbarian cavalry in the trap. On the outside, there is no trace of the existence of the trap, and if it is not for the eyes to see it, no one would have thought that not long ago, in this seemingly gentle desert, there were thousands of living beings, struggling to survive in it.

Qatar, who was supervising the war in the rear, was completely annoyed and angry, and he couldn't just retreat in embarrassment, because they had no way to retreat, either fighting to the death to win life, or the whole army was wiped out and died on the battlefield, they knew that this was a battle for survival.

Drawing his saber, Qatar shouted: "Sons, rush!" Tens of thousands of troops raised their sabers at the same time, and issued a cry that was unique to the barbarians, almost like wolves, and rushed towards the enemy's fortifications.

Although the red-clothed ballista was temporarily transferred by Xu Shu, this does not mean that the enemy army has no long-range killing weapons. After Yuan Qi's order, the Digui army came to the back of the earthen wall, raised his arm, and through the hundreds of lookouts on the earthen wall, he aimed the Xizi crossbow that was fastened on his arm and aimed it at the Xinman cavalry who were rushing outside. At the same time, the Heavenly Return Army turned over and jumped onto the platform that originally carried the red-clothed ballista, and the Flying Dragon Army came to the second platform between the Heavenly Return Army and the Earth Return Army, and their hands were all doing the same actions as the Earth Return Army.

This is also a tactic arranged by Yuan Qi in advance, because the armor of the Earth Return Army is heavy, and they themselves are all sturdy and strong men, although their armor is the heaviest, it is the most suitable team to shoot on the top platform, but Yuan Qi is worried that their heavy weight will cause the collapse of the earth wall, so they can only let them pass the lookout ** attack on a down-to-earth basis, and they are replaced by the Tiangui Army.

Peng Peng's voice sounded continuously, and the three elite troops on the upper, middle and lower layers of the earthen wall simultaneously pulled the Xizi repeater on their arms, and thousands of crossbow arrows shot out from all angles and directions, flying madly towards the Xinman cavalry, causing them effective damage. The crossbow arrows shot by the three elites naturally cannot be compared with the red-clothed ballista, but the Xizi repeater in their hands is also improved by Wang Yezi and Ma Jun, and the power should not be underestimated, not to mention that the Xizi repeater is one of the conventional weapons of the three elite troops, and they usually work hard in this regard, and the accuracy of each elite's shooting is extremely high, and they instantly shot down a large number of running Xinman cavalry, bringing a burst of bloody rain.

The most terrifying thing is that the Xin barbarian cavalry who were hit by an arrow and fell off their horses rarely let out a scream, because most of the parts of the arrows they were hit by were in the throat! Sealing the throat with an arrow was exactly the ultimate pursued by the three elite troops! Such an accurate archery technique, even the Xin barbarians, who were known as the best of both archery and horses, were not as good as themselves.

After a single shot, the three elite troops immediately pulled back and gave up their positions to their companions. Another group of elites quickly filled the vacancy they had left behind, calmly and calmly pulled their crossbows, and once again inflicted thousands of casualties on the Xin barbarians.

Two consecutive accurate shots, so that Qatar and other Xinban leaders all gasped, the Han people's archery skills are too terrifying, even more accurate than the Xin barbarians who have lived on horseback for generations, they don't understand at all, how the Han people practiced such a divine shootery.

After the second group of elites finished shooting, they again ceded their position to the third group of elites. The accurate point shooting continued, the death of the barbarians continued, the shock of the leaders such as Qatar continued, and the whole battle also continued. Before the official confrontation, the Xin barbarians had already lost nearly 20,000 people under the enemy's invincible red-coated ballista and the precise strikes of elite troops!

After surviving three rounds of accurate fire from the Han Chinese, the front line of the Xinman cavalry had already stepped within fifty paces of the fortifications. Here, countless tripwires and horse rejection piles await them. Even if the Xinman cavalry has seen these threats on the surface, but they have no ability to retreat, behind them, there are tens of thousands of clansmen's advancing horses' hooves, if they dodge, it will make the clansmen behind them chaotic, such a tragedy, has already appeared once just now, they don't want to repeat the mistakes of the past.

Riding their horses into the obstacles laid by the enemy, the Xin Barbarian cavalry, who were in the forefront, soon began to regret it. Those stumbling horses and ropes are simply a kind of false inducement, and what is really fatal is the traps after being carefully camouflaged by the dragon crews! The half-foot-square traps are hidden in places where there are no trips, waiting for the war horses of the Xin barbarians to step in. On the soft desert, the Han people were able to use tactics such as traps and horse traps successively, which greatly surprised the Xin barbarians. Only a person like Yuan Qi, who has the knowledge of later generations, can use such a destructive means on the desert, so that those seemingly flat deserts are actually full of murderous intentions!

The unsuspecting Xin Barbarian cavalry rode their horses into the pit, and the horse's legs immediately fell into the pit, but the horse's body could not stop at all, and they were still sprinting hard. The legs of the war horse were broken, and they lost their strength softly, and could no longer support their bodies and the Xin Barbarian cavalry on horseback, and after a painful neigh, the horse stumbled like a front hoof, lying on the ground, and overturned the Xin Barbarian cavalry from the horse. Even if some of the Xinman cavalry were extremely lucky and did not step into the horse trap, they could not control the war horse to avoid every tripping rope or anything like that in the high-speed gallop, and finally they were strangled by the tripping horse and broke the horse's hooves, or were hit by the rejection of the horse and injured the horse.

The Xinman cavalry who rushed behind were caught off guard, and they had no time to hold the speed of the war horses sitting down, so they could only let their war horses trample on the bodies of the clansmen, trampling the clansmen's bodies into a ball of flesh, and even worse, they were tripped to the ground by the fallen bodies of the clansmen or the war horses, which became another obstacle for the clansmen further back.

In the midst of the people on their backs, chaos instantly spread in the Xin Barbarian formation, and all kinds of screams and shouts of the Xin Barbarians filled the space within fifty steps of the enemy's fortifications.
