Chapter 412 The Power of the crossbow
Xu Shu has been in Bingzhou for more than 20 days. The Xianbei army outside Yanmenguan's offensive has entered the most violent period. The Xiliang army cavalry that entered Xianbei's headquarters is expected to have reached it. Although it is this marching division, Xu Shu does not know that it is Jia Rong who led the army to Xianbei. Otherwise, he doesn't know that his face will There won't be such light clouds and wind.
Five hundred crossbow cars are the largest handwriting of the craftsman's workshop. It consumes countless materials. If it is not for the support of glass fairy love coal and other things, it is difficult to complete this great change in the army. First of all, the weapons of soldiers and the change of armor, and the armor worn by the war horse. These armors are different from the past, which is the change in weight. Lighter, the defense is stronger, and the long ones wear plate armor, which greatly reduces the weight and the defense ability is even higher.
Of course, if the cavalry do long-range sniping, these protections will become a burden.
Three hundred crossbow cars lined up in front of the camp, as if waiting for the Huns to rush.
Lv Yi led 2,000 cavalry to appear on the right wing of the Xiliang Army to prevent accidents. At the same time, he also wanted to see what the specific combat effectiveness of the Xiliang Army was. The last time it was a duel between Hua Xiong and the Eagle Army, but this time it was a confrontation between the two armies, and the Xiongnu personally pressed the battle.
Lv Yi secretly defected to the Xiliang army in his heart. There must be many unconvinced generals under his command. Ding Tai ruled Bingzhou for a long time, and the military and the people were also attached. The stronger the Xiliang army showed, the simpler it would be to unify the state.
The Huns began to rush, and 2,000 cavalry roared.
The Xiongnu stared at the crossbow car. Although the crossbow car is powerful, when the brave Huns break into the camp of the Xiliang Army, these crossbow cars will only become the burden of the Xiliang Army. In his eyes, the commander of the Xiliang Army opposite is just an incompetent person. When these soldiers lose the protection of the crossbow car, the battlefield What will happen to the general? The Xiongnu Shanyu is eager to see the defeat of the Xiliang army.
It's close to the range of the crossbow car.
Under Guo Wei's order, 300 crossbow cars began to show their power. The sound of the tight crossbow strings made the infantry feel unprecedentedly excited. In front of them were the brave Xiongnu cavalry, and they were about to tremble under the offensive of the crossbow car.
What Lv Yi and Xiongnu expected was that it was not 300 crossbows, but dense crossbows, which made people dark.
The crossbows carried on the crossbow car are a few times bigger than ordinary crossbows, and the power is doubled. Even the range is twice that of ordinary crossbows, but Guo Wei doesn't want to show all the characteristics of the crossbow car too early.
Three hundred crossbow cars shot 1,800 crossbow arrows, straight towards one or two Huns. These crossbows are completely made of good iron materials, and the cost is astonishing. Of course, the power is naturally great.
Lv Yi, who was not far away, stared at this game. He even saw a crossbow penetrating the three Huns. When did the Xiliang Army have such a sharp weapon?
After the three hundred crossbows were launched, the Huns on the battlefield fell down like cutting wheat. Looking closely, the 2,000 Huns who had just charged, but there were less than 500 people left. The dense Huns cavalry made the crossbows more powerful.
Under Guo Wei's order, a thousand Xiliang iron riders, who had already been ready to go, rushed forward, and a charge killed the stunned Huns. Once again, there was no trace of the Huns on the battlefield.
Xiongnu Shanyu stared at the crossbow car. In his impression, it seems that only one crossbow can be fired at a time. Why can the 300 crossbow car in front of him emit dense crossbow arrows? The dense crossbow arrows, even if the elite eagle army rush forward, is the same result. What's more surprising is these crossbow arrows. The power can penetrate a cavalryman and the rest of it will not diminish.
Taking advantage of this gap, two soldiers flashed behind each crossbow car and skillfully reloaded the crossbow into the crossbow car.
From the rush of 2,000 cavalry of the Xiongnu to the destruction of all, it was just a moment. Lv Yi's heart was very cold. He was a Han general, and he had never heard of when such a sharp weapon appeared. He clearly saw six crossbow arrows shot in each crossbow car. No, that kind of crossbow can be called a short gun.
At the same time, I was secretly grateful for the previous choice. With such a crossbow car, there is no need to worry that the state will not be broken, and even the fresh and humble people outside the customs are not worried.
The morale of the Han army was greatly shaken, and such a crossbow car was also launched for the first time.
Xiongnu Shanyu's face kept changing. Under an order, the rear team changed into the front team and retreated to the city. At the moment when 2,000 cavalry were destroyed by the Han army, Shan Yu suddenly found himself old. The elite of the Han army was really not what they could resist. No wonder the previous Qiang Qu repeatedly opposed the mutiny, but resolutely sent troops to help Da Hanping. Ding's internal rebellion, 300 crossbow cars in front of the Xiliang Army, made him feel powerless.
Guo Yan, Xu Shu and other high-level officials of the Xiliang Army stared at 300 crossbow cars with a red face. Before that, they were afraid that they could not fight against the 10,000 Huns, but it seemed to be too much. Even on the left wing of the army, 2,000 cavalry were prepared in case of unforesought. Three hundred crossbow cars shot in unison, which was very powerful than that day. The effect of launching a car is more than a hundred times stronger.
The Huns huddled in the city. Lv Yi kept sending people to Dingtai to send good news, and at the same time asked for food and fodder, weapons and siege equipment.
Ding Tai was very excited and calmed down the Xiongnu. Then he would definitely be able to get such a big attack. Lv Yi is really a lucky general, and his eyes looking at Chen Yi contained a trace of miskindness. In the past, Chen Yi said that Lv Yi was not right in front of him. At the beginning, he didn't pay attention to it and let Chen Yi to come, but now Lv Yi It has become the biggest guarantee for his position. Naturally, he showed a little rejection of Chen Yi. If Chen Yi had not been very influential in the military and politics, I'm afraid Ding Tai would have done him long ago.
Chen Yi's face showed bitterness. He didn't expect that Xu Shu's light words could change his position in Ding Tai's heart. Has many years of efforts been so unbearable? With his means, if he wanted to be Bingzhou shepherd, Ding Tai would have joined Ding Yuan long ago. There is no today's Bingzhou Mu Ding Tai.
Thinking about it, I felt that something was wrong. When did the Huns become so weak and vulnerable? Could it be that Lv Yi is really a famous general who can turn some trained soldiers into elites? Suddenly, Chen Yi took out the information sent by the soldiers in front of him and looked carefully again. The charge of 2,000 cavalry was killed by the Han army in less than half an hour. "Xiliang Army", and Chen Yi suddenly thought of the unstable factor that appeared in Bingzhou.
Suddenly he thought of a possibility. Lv Yi may have secretly reached an agreement with the Xiliang Army. Today's military achievements are just that Lv Yi uses the Xiliang Army as a cover. If this is really the case, then Bingzhou is really not guaranteed.
"Lord, don't send soldiers to Lv Yi again." Chen Yi panicked and shouted.
Ding Tai stared at Chen Yi with a bad face and said coldly, "What's wrong? Doesn't Chen Beijiao want to see the Huns paced down?
After sorting out his thoughts a little, Chen Yi regained his previous calmness and explained, "Lord, if our army is really so elite, why does Lv Yi need more soldiers and horses? His heart is unpredictable."
Ding Tai said angrily, "Don't say more. The Huns have the benefits of the city, and they have tens of thousands of elite soldiers in their hands. The strength in General Lu's hands is only comparable to those of the Huns. How to break through the United States, I don't think Chen doesn't want others to make military achievements."
It's about the safety of Bingzhou. Chen Yi said, "Lord, most of the soldiers of the Bingzhou army are just soldiers who have been in the army for several months. The Huns are brave. How can they be defeated so easily? I'm afraid there is something strange here. It's inevitable."
Ding Tai's expression tightened slightly. He thought of a secret letter that Lv Yi had written to him before, saying that Chen Yi would be jealous of his achievements, and he speculated. At this time, it seemed that it was true that he snorted coldly, "Don't say much. I have my own final say about this matter. You go down!"
Chen Yi sighed, his face was like dead ashes, and he retreated.
Thinking that Lv Yi once said that after completely defeating the Xiongnu army, he would take the opportunity to encroach on the Xiliang Army, his mood was extremely comfortable, which could make the world-famous Xiliang Army fall, as if it had never happened.
At the same time, Jia Rong led the 3,000 Xiliang Army to the boundary of Xianbei, the endless grassland, which made Jia Rong feel extremely comfortable.
Three thousand Xiliang Army, after passing through the desert, there are only 2,100 people left. Before fighting, 900 people have been buried in the desert. This is still a medical center in the army, otherwise the loss will be greater. The unprepared wind and sand and endless dryness will make this Xiliang Army suffer a lot.
When 3,000 soldiers came, they were wearing armor, bows and arrows and other equipment. Now there is only one set of coarse clothes left, and a machete in his hand.
Jia Rong licked his dry lips and said, "Finally, I came out of the desert and had a good meal."
"Feng Xian, go and find out and see if there are any tribes of Xianbei people in front of you? Be careful not to be discovered. Jia Rong told him.
"No!" Lv Bu held his fist. No matter how hot it was, Lv Bu always refused to discard the painting halberd and resolutely brought it to the situation of Xianbei people. The gentian gun in Zhao Yun's hand was always inseparable.
"Lord, ten miles ahead, there is a small tribe of Xianbei people, and it is estimated that there are more than 1,000 people." About two hours, Lv Bu came to Jia Rong's resting place breathlessly.
Jia Rong nodded and said, "Well, when it gets dark, we will do it. Tonight we can take a shower and eat meat."
The soldiers howled in a low and excited voice, took a shower and had a full meal, which was their greatest luxury.
After the sky completely darkened, Jia Rong led 2,100 soldiers to quietly touch the Xianbei tribe in Lv Bu's mouth.
In the night, Jia Rong saw the ignition light in front of him.
"Zilong, you lead 500 people from the left, Feng Xian, you lead 500 people from the right, Mi Wei, you lead 500 soldiers to surround the back of the Xianbei people, and you can't let any Xianbei people get away." Jia Rong said in a low voice that this is the base camp of the Xianbei people, and his own soldiers are just a group of Han troops dressed in coarse cloth clothes and holding simple weapons. I'm afraid that after the Xianbei people noticed it, they sent a team of cavalry. More than 2,000 of them will be buried on the vast grassland. This sneak attack was unexpected. Murong Feng led Xianbei. The army and the Han army fought outside the Yanmen Pass. The scouts must be all over the battlefield. It was so difficult for the Han people to break into the hinterland of Xianbei. Of course, they did not consider that there would be a strong army from the desert.
