Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 489 Against Lu Bu
"Does Liu Yu have any secret weapons?"

Because the dense rain of arrows made Chen Gong have a thoughtful expression on his face. He had never seen 5000 people shoot [-] arrows in a short period of time, so Chen Gong had to suspect that Liu Yu might still have reservations. means.

But soon this assumption was rejected by Chen Gong again.

"It's impossible to have any more secret weapons!"

It was beyond Chen Gong's imagination to secretly transport 10,000+ bows and arrows into Yanzhou, so he did not believe that Liu Yu could bring in even more powerful weapons, and even if there were, Chen Gong would not be worried, because Lu Bu had [-] bows and arrows in his hand. cavalry.

Dueling cavalry on flat ground can almost instantly kill infantry.

…………

Xuzhou Pengcheng.

Lu Bu's sneak attack had a miraculous effect at the beginning, but after he occupied a few dispensable small counties, he could no longer advance half a step.

Not only that, the county he occupied was almost full of ghosts and monsters, and there were neither people nor half a grain of food that could be eaten, which made Lu Bu lose the joy of victory for a while.

In Yanzhou Xinding, the new food in autumn was destroyed due to the war in the territory. This time he marched into Pengcheng and Lv Bu only prepared [-] days of rations for the whole army. He thought that after occupying the county, he could get food on the spot, but he did not expect It turned out that all the occupied cities were empty.

The logistics supplies in Puyang City could not be delivered for a while, so Lu Bu could only rush to attack Pengcheng before the food ran out.

The defenders of Pengcheng are Pang De and Mi Fang. The 2 people in the city were selected from the Xuzhou army. Against the 3 people in Shanglu, they still rely on the city to defend, so naturally it is effortless.

The two sides stalemate for another period of time, and the food and grass in Lu Bu's army finally bottomed out, and when Lu Bu had the idea of ​​​​retiring the army, he sent a letter of urgent military information from Puyang City.

"Liu Yu led troops to raid Puyang City!"

"How is this possible! Shouldn't he be on the way to conquer Yuan Shu, how did he reach my base camp!"

Lu Bu had no time to think about it, so he led his soldiers out of Xuzhou that night.

So after Pang De was reminded by Zhang Ren, the two followed each other with a troop.

It's just that they only chased and didn't fight, and they would stop immediately when they saw Lu Bu showing signs of turning around, and after Lu Bu led his troops to leave, they took advantage of the trend to encroach on the surrounding areas.

Lu Bu was anxious about the situation in Puyang, the base camp, so he left Hao Meng and Cheng Yi to lead his troops back to help, while he hurried back with [-] cavalry.

After marching rapidly for two consecutive days, Lu Bu finally arrived outside Puyang City in the afternoon of this day.

"Look, my lord, that's Liu Yu's camp!"

Deputy General Song Xian stepped forward and reported, "My subordinates have observed that the camp is not big, and Liu Yu indeed only brought 5000 people!"

Before Song Xian finished speaking, the barracks of the Habayashi Army on the opposite side opened wide, and the [-] Habayashi Army relied on the barracks to form a formation quickly, posing a showdown with Lu Bu's cavalry.

Seeing such a scene, Lu Bu was enraged on the spot.

"Well, you Liu Yu, even five thousand infantry dare to challenge my cavalry. Do you really think that archers can restrain cavalry!"

Lu Bu knew the situation here long ago in the letter, and in order not to tell Lu Bu to underestimate the enemy, Chen Gong also specifically wrote in the letter that Liu Yu's five thousand subordinates were extremely good at bow shooting, and could shoot [-] bows and arrows in a very short period of time .

"Liu Yu wiped out Wei Xu, Cao, and Hou Cheng one after another. I don't believe he still has [-] arrows in the camp!"

The loss of [-] subordinates and the loss of three generals made Lu Bu feel like bleeding, and he must avenge this revenge.

"Come on, blow the horn and prepare to charge!"

The cavalry has the advantage of speed. Even if there are still a few available bows in Liu Yu's camp, the cavalry can charge through with minimal damage.

This is because when the two armies confront each other on the flat ground, the bows and crossbows are often fired upwards to increase the range, and rely on the gravity of falling from the air to kill, so the shooting process has time and scope.

The cavalry has strong mobility and can quickly pass through the range covered by the rain of arrows. This is why Lu Bu believes that this battle can be won.

The horn sounded, and the [-] cavalry under Lu Bu immediately formed a wedge formation.

"Come on, the one who captures Liu Yu alive will be named a general, and the one who kills the thief will be rewarded with food!"

Following Lu Bu's order, the eight thousand cavalry charged up from slow to fast.

…………

The momentum of the cavalry's charge was astonishing, even the Habayashi Army wearing Mingguang armor could not resist the impact head-on.

"My lord, do you want the soldiers to shoot with the crossbow first?"

Seeing this, Zhang Xiu was anxious, and proposed to use a bow and arrow to suppress it remotely.

Liu Yu smiled flatly after hearing this.

There is no shortage of arrows in the camp. When building the camp, Liu Yu bought 20 arrows from the blacksmith shop of the system in one go. Although the power of the crossbow is strong enough to shoot and kill the cavalry on the opposite side, it cannot prevent most of the cavalry from rushing to the camp. Before the battle.

Once the cavalry rushes to one's own camp, defeat is inevitable.

"You Wei, don't worry, yesterday I asked the soldiers to build dozens of bed crossbows, just to deal with Lu Bu's cavalry!"

After Liu Yu finished speaking, he waved his hand, only to see dozens of bed crossbows in the control aspect neatly arranged behind the camp.

"In this way, the bed crossbow can be moved and controlled by only two people. It is very convenient... The last general has never seen it before! Could it be..."

"It is the manufacturing process left by Master Kang Xianren! This sharp weapon is not only easy to control, but also can shoot a thousand steps without failing, even if you shoot several rides continuously, it is no problem!"

After listening to Liu Yu's introduction, all the soldiers of the Yulin Army were full of fighting spirit, ready to witness the power of the new bed crossbow.

It's just that this bed crossbow is not newly made, it was bought by Liu Yu from the blacksmith shop of the system, but when encountering questions that are difficult to explain and answer, Liu Yu will push it to his master.

Who told his master to be an immortal? Since he can create equipment that transcends the times such as Mingguang Armor and Mo Dao, he can naturally create other more powerful weapons!

The bed crossbow is huge, so the arrows used are not ordinary feather arrows, but longer and heavier iron arrows.

This kind of long iron arrow cannot be purchased from the blacksmith shop of the system for the time being, so Liu Yu asked the soldiers to use the collected spears and spears as "bullets".

"Yuvi still remembers the three-stroke stroke I once taught!"

The so-called three-stage strike allows the bow and crossbow units to stagger their shots, so that the attack state can be guaranteed to be uninterrupted.

Zhang Xiu nodded heavily when he heard it, and just as he was about to turn around and direct the bed crossbows to fire, Liu Yu called him back again.

"Wait a moment!"

I saw Liu Yu smiled and took out a hanging earth red from a box on the ground.

"This thing is a firecracker, and it sounds like a firecracker after being lit. If you let the soldiers be tied to the spears and spears, it will have a miraculous effect on the cavalry!"

Zhang Xiu knew about firecrackers, but this was the first time he had seen this kind of firecrackers.

"Can this thing really make a sound? If it's as the lord said, this move is similar to the Fire Bull Formation in the pre-Qin period!"

Feeling dubious, Zhang Xiu lit a firecracker in person.

"Whizzing……"

A series of blue smoke flew out, and before the spears and spears hit the cavalry, a series of dense and deafening crackling sounds were heard.
