Three Kingdoms Strong Army System

Chapter 39 Iron Wall Shield Phalanx

Because they didn't carry any luggage, Zhu You's 2000 people marched very fast, and it took only half an hour to arrive at a distance of fourteen miles.

Looking from a distance, Zhu You saw a large number of soldiers on the north bank of Jingshui.

That's where Liu Zhang's army is.

Zhu You is not stupid, he is not here to fight Liu Zhang, but to find an opportunity to sneak attack.

As he kept getting closer, he could see more and more clearly the whole picture of Liu Zhang's army.

The tents in their camp have been pitched, and the gates and fences are being made.

Great, the opponent's camp has no defenses, this is really an opportunity to attack.

As for the six army formations outside the opposing camp, they were automatically ignored by Zhu You.

Of course, he also knew that at such a short distance, the other party would definitely be able to detect his movements, but he didn't care.

Even if you are prepared, so what, you are already exhausted from the march, but you came from Gaoling, it is only fourteen miles away, and the soldiers are full of energy.

When he was two hundred steps away from Liu Zhang's camp, he ordered the army to stop advancing.

From such a distance, the whole picture of the enemy can be seen at a glance.

In Liu Zhang's army, only six military formations were deployed outside the camp, and the rest of the soldiers were camped, working independently, and did not gather together.

"Hmph, the defense is so simple, it seems that Liu Zhang has no ability!" Zhu You raised his hand and pointed the horsewhip in front, smiling to the left and right.

He put away the whip, then took the spear from the guard, swung the spear forward, "Come on!"

Following Zhu You's order, the three hundred cavalry he brought immediately urged the horses under his crotch to advance towards a shield formation.

The remaining [-] infantry were also divided into several units, led by several military lords, who charged at a distance of more than ten steps from each other.

"Meet the enemy!" The four of Xu Lai stayed in the army formation and commanded loudly.

The large shield soldiers who were matched as iron wall shield guards inserted the standard large iron shields firmly on the ground, holding the saber in their right hand, and waited quietly.

The 2000 people charged forward with great momentum, but they couldn't scare them.

In their eyes, even a charge of 2 people is not worthy of their embarrassment. They just need to follow the military order, stand firmly in front, and stabilize the line of defense.

"Archers prepare, shoot forward, Angdu III!" Behind the Iron Wall Shield Guards, in the two archer phalanxes, under the command of the two commanders, they drew the bowstring, waiting for the next order.

Zhang Jie, as a descendant, will be activated immediately, and he is extremely happy in his heart.

This means that Liu Zhang accepts and trusts himself. He secretly made up his mind to fight this battle well so that the lord can see his ability.

The speed of the cavalry was very fast, and within a short while, they entered the range of the archers.

"put!"

Following Zhang Kui and Zhang Jie's loud orders, a thousand archers immediately let go of the string, and a thousand arrows flew out.

After drawing an arc in the air, it fell quickly again.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
There were countless sounds, and the arrows fell on the ground, and some of them fell on Zhu You's cavalry.

In a round of arrow rain, fifty of the three hundred cavalry fell down.

Without waiting for orders from Zhang Kui and Zhang Jie, the thousand archers took out an arrow from their quiver in large numbers, and skillfully put it on the string, quickly maintaining the posture just now.

"put!"

The second wave of arrow rain came, and more than 50 cavalry fell from their horses.

After two rounds of arrow rain, the local cavalry was reduced by a third, but they had no chance to shoot a third round.

The two hundred cavalry had already rushed in front of the large shield soldiers.

Following the momentum of the horses, they charged fiercely towards the shield formation.

They had already seen clearly that the ones standing in front of them were not spearmen. As long as it wasn't a dense spear phalanx, they wouldn't be afraid at all.

The cavalry, including men and horses, slammed into the shields of the large shield soldiers in the first row.

The huge impact pushed the first row of shield soldiers back with their shields, but the second row of shield soldiers immediately used their large shields to withstand the body of the first row of shield soldiers.

With such a row, one row against another, the cavalry can often only retreat two rows, and then cannot continue to advance.

The speed of the cavalry dropped suddenly.

For cavalry without speed, the danger is greatly reduced, not to mention they are still stuck in the shield phalanx.

A group of shield soldiers stuck them, prevented them from moving, and then swung at them with their sabers in their hands.

Then, the biggest threat to them is not these big shield soldiers, but the archers behind the big shield soldiers.

The cavalry were moving at high speed just now, and it was not easy for arrows to hit them, but it was obvious that they stopped and straddled the horses, so conspicuous, they were simply stationary targets.

"Aim at the opponent's cavalry and shoot freely!" Zhang Jie issued a military order decisively, and the [-] archers under his command immediately changed their volleys to free fires, and projectiles to flat shots.

Two hundred cavalry, under the shooting of a thousand archers, the number dropped sharply.

"Quick, charge!" Zhu You was behind, and he could see clearly, but he didn't expect the opponent's shield formation to be so difficult to deal with.

He could only order the infantry to speed up, otherwise the two hundred cavalry would be gone.

"Kill!" Zhu You's infantry slammed into the big shield soldiers, and the two sides fought again.

Although they came, they still did not change the fate of the cavalry. Those cavalry were all wiped out within a cup of tea.

Zhu You was furious, this is three hundred cavalry.

The cost of raising one cavalryman is equivalent to five infantrymen, not counting the money for buying horses.

Even Zhu You couldn't bear such a loss.

However, after a while, he found that his infantry could not break through the opponent's formation at all.

These big shield soldiers are really.
Zhu You thought for a long time, and finally came up with a word in his mind.

wretched,

Yep, it's obscene.

They hid their bodies behind the big shields, and the big shields were tightly connected to the big shields without any gaps. No matter how hard they attacked, the opponent was still as stable as before. There were only a few places where they could break through their big shields.

They hid like this, but whenever they had a chance, they suddenly leaned out from behind the big shield, and slashed at them with their sabers.

Regardless of whether they hit or wound the enemy, they immediately retracted their bodies.

In this way, it is difficult for the soldiers under his command to attack the opponent.

Moreover, the opponent's skill is very agile, and the speed of ordinary soldiers on his side is not at all.

Only at the level of the captain and general can he kill the opponent.

No, if this continues, all of my 2000 people will have to be accounted for here.

Liu Zhang's army is so powerful, why does he have so many big shields, and why are these soldiers so brave.

Zhu You was stunned and couldn't believe that this was Liu Zhang's army.

For a while, he couldn't think of a way to crack it.

"Withdraw!"

Zhu You finally gave up the attack. After he gave the order, he immediately returned with the army and fled to Gaoling.

Xu Lai, the soldiers led by Chen Lu, Luo Fu, and Zhang Qin were all iron shield guards. They moved slowly and could not pursue them. They could only give up. Only the thousand archers stopped after shooting two rounds of arrows.
