Watching the crossbow arrows raging, reaping the lives of Wuhuan warriors in an instant, in the blink of an eye, no less than a thousand soldiers were instantly killed by the crossbow arrows, and the killing continued. Nearly two thousand crossbow arrows were still alive. Half of them are still killing like crazy.At this moment, Tadun, who was prostrate on the ground, was pale, his eyes were about to burst, and his head was filled with grief. He smashed his fists heavily into the stone, his flesh was bloody, but he couldn't feel the pain, and his heart was filled with endless fear and anger.

Just as Ta Dun was full of fire, trying to get up and rush to the Han army's crossbow array to smash those killing demons, the second round of crossbow arrows suddenly shot out.In an instant, he was so frightened that he fell silent, curled up on the ground and did not dare to move, for fear of losing his life if he raised his head.

The second round of crossbow arrows was still a cluster of giant feather arrows, which dispersed suddenly after flying for a certain distance, and were also divided into ten parts, traveling unimpeded.The only difference from the first round of arrows was that this round of crossbow arrows was thrown in the air, but the arc of the arrow was not large, but it was enough to kill Wuhuan cavalry three hundred steps away.

Just as the second round of crossbow bolts roared into the air, the impact of the first round of crossbow bolts was coming to an end.By the time the last giant feathered arrow completed its mission, most of the first batch of more than 2000 Wuhuan iron cavalry who followed Tadun and charged towards the commander's platform of the Chinese army had already been killed or injured. At least [-] people died under the giant feathered arrow. In addition, More than a thousand Wuhuan cavalrymen were shot or trampled to death by horses.The remaining one thousand Wuhuan cavalrymen were chaotically rushed by the frightened war horses, and there were not a few people who collided with each other and trampled to death.Therefore, just one round of crossbow arrows killed more than [-] Wuhuan iron cavalry with heavy casualties and routed the army.

However.This is just a killing stick, the real killing is still to come, and it is still going on.but.The power of the first round of crossbow arrows is undoubtedly the greatest, and its results are also the most brilliant.

The second round of crossbow arrows killed less than 1000 Wuhuan cavalry, the third round only had a thousand soldiers, and the fourth round nearly [-]

After the 7000 giant feather arrows were exhausted, the Wuhuan cavalry led by Ta Dun had to pay at least tens of thousands of casualties.However, less than 5000 of these people actually died under the crossbow arrows, but no less than [-] Wuhuan cavalry were trampled to death by horses or injured by being knocked over and fell off their horses.Casualties are almost equal to the lethality of crossbow bolts.The only difference between the two is that those who are shot by crossbow arrows will undoubtedly die, while the Wuhuan cavalry who are knocked over and trampled are either dead or maimed.There are still some survivors.It's just that it is unknown whether these wounded Wuhuan soldiers can leave the battlefield alive in the end.

However, the chariot crossbow attack was not over yet, and there were still five hundred chariot crossbows to launch the strongest attack.A truly devastating crossbow attack.

"Bang bang" loud noise.Huge crossbow bolts roared into the air, drawing perfect arcs in the sky, and roaring into the dense Wuhuan cavalry.

"Ah, ah!" The loud sounds of fighting and the long neighing of war horses still couldn't cover up the miserable screams. The Wuhuan warriors who once boasted, the bravest tribe under the sun, faced death no differently from ordinary people. Hysterical screams and screams.The shrill and sharp scream went straight into the sky, shaking the front of Lulongsai Pass, and there was a long and endless echo.

How lethal are these five hundred real crossbow arrows?Li Li and Zhuge Liang, who reined in their horses and watched the battle on the left side of the platform, didn't know either.I saw the place where the crossbow arrows fell five hundred paces away, and the wilderness with a radius of more than one hundred paces was blank.Except for the corpses and the remains of the horses everywhere, there is no living person or horse.Destroyed, imagined it was like this.

The power of the chariot crossbow was so great that it really opened Li Li's horizons and gained insight. Deep in his heart, he was extremely shocked and even a little terrified.

Today, the crossbow is not a new type of weapon. The princes of all towns have more or less crossbows in their hands, but they are all used to defend the city, and rarely use the crossbow on the frontal battlefield.In other words, even if the crossbows are pulled onto the battlefield, they are only used as an auxiliary means of attack. There are not many of them, generally not more than two hundred, and they are all made of relatively inferior iron, so their accuracy is poor and their power is not great. .However, today Zhuge Liang broke the convention and used relatively poor materials to make the ballista, but he had extremely high requirements for the crossbow bolts, so that thousands of craftsmen worked day and night to make the crossbow bolts, and there were only 500 crossbow bolts in a month.At the same time, Zhuge Liang had a fantastic idea and designed a giant feather arrow, so he replaced the crossbow arrow with a giant feather arrow. It is not required that the feather arrow reach a super long range of more than [-] meters, but only that the feather arrow fired by the ballista has the impact of the crossbow arrow. power and lethality.

Facts trump everything, and it is clear that Zhuge Liang succeeded.He innovated the attack method of the crossbow, pulled the crossbow to the battlefield of a decisive battle, and exploded with shocking power, resulting in fruitful results.

In fact, the deterrent effect of the crossbow is far greater than the actual lethality.The Wuhuan iron cavalry led by Ta Dun was not defeated by the crossbow, but was frightened by the huge lethality displayed by the crossbow, so that they collided and trampled each other, causing huge unnecessary casualties.

The weapon is still the weapon it used to be, but it can explode with unprecedented power in the hands of someone who is good at using it.In the final analysis, it is not that the weapon is powerful, the weapon is a dead thing after all, the real powerful is the person who uses it.At this moment, Li Li secretly rejoiced that he was too wise to keep Zhuge Liang by his side as soon as possible, otherwise these crossbows or newer weapons would fall on his head one day, and it would be a big disaster!

He yelled again: "Ask for a monthly ticket, recommended ticket! Check if you still have a ticket in your pocket. If you have a ticket, you can smash it. Huben will follow. Don't miss it when you pass by. As long as you are happy, you can smash it however you want." No matter how you smash it, Huben will thank you!"

Chapter 963 Killing the Wolf, Immediately

After the crossbow arrows passed, corpses were everywhere within [-] steps in front of the commander's platform of the Chinese army, except for more than a thousand ownerless horses wandering on the battlefield, there were no Wuhuan cavalry.And five hundred paces away, there were no less than [-] Wuhuan iron cavalry gathered, but they were still panicked at this moment, they reined in their horses and stopped daring to move forward.

When the last round of crossbow arrows roared and fell, Zhuge Liang, who reined in his horse and stood beside Li Li, sighed softly: "It's a pity. Originally, after crossbow arrows, you can still change the crossbow cart into a two-horse chariot, and continue to charge and strangle. Thinking that the battlefield before the battle is already covered with corpses, and the road ahead is blocked, the chariot is useless. Hey, man is not as good as God, it is unexpected!"

After Li Li heard the words, he was speechless for a while, his face was dull, and he blinked, but rolled his eyes straight away, with a very strange expression.Suddenly a sentence appeared in his mind: "Zhuge Duozhi is almost a demon, with the ability to call wind and rain, and has unpredictable abilities; Kong Ming is immortal, and troubled times are hard to calm." Li Li had heard this comment a long time ago, but Puzzled, but at this moment he had an epiphany.

When Zhuge Liang used troops, any inconspicuous detail was an important link in his entire tactical planning, interlocking and killing each step.The purpose of the previous infantry firing arrows was to confuse the barbarian army, making them think that the Han army was at the end of its rope, and they were still old-fashioned and unable to play new tricks; With the heart, prompting him to underestimate the enemy and rush forward, he went straight to the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army to kill the general.Then, the car crossbow appeared and struck head-on, dealing a devastating blow to the barbarian army.After the crossbow array, there is another means of attack. This is how the ballista turns into a chariot, and the chariot rushes into the formation.After the chariot.It was the Chinese army who attacked, took advantage of the situation to chase and kill, and beat the dog in the water.

The whole attack down.Don't say that the barbarian army with inferior armor and relatively simple attack methods can't stand it, and it's still too much for other armies.Since you can't bear it, you have to walk around, and it is inevitable that you will lose your troops and suffer a big loss.It is no exception for Li Li to lead the army.

This is Zhuge Liang, a military strategist of the generation who uses soldiers like gods. He can use a series of methods in frontal decisive battles, emerging one after another.Make people hard to guard against.If it is another battle, he must have more room to play and plan more carefully.It is not an exaggeration to say that it is exhaustive, but it is well deserved.

"My lord, my lord." Just as Li Li was distracted, Zhuge Liang's voice came from next to his ear: "The next battle will have to be troubled by my lord to go out in person. While the barbarian army loses their fighting spirit at this moment, my lord can lead the Jinyi guards to fight in battle." .Strive to defeat Tadun's central army in one fell swoop. As long as Tadun's troops are defeated and flee, the troops on the left and right flanks will surely collapse without fighting, and flee in a hurry. If this is the case, the overall situation is settled, and our army will definitely win this battle!" When he said these words, Zhuge Liang seemed full of confidence, his tone was sonorous and powerful, and he was loud.

"Uh! That's very good." Li Li returned to his senses in astonishment, and nodded happily.Immediately, he told Li Zhi behind him: "Zicheng stay here to protect the military division. Don't leave half a step, and must protect the military division's safety!"

"Ah! This..." Li Zhi's expression changed upon hearing this.Looking at Li Li in amazement, he was about to speak out to defend himself, but Li Li glared at him and swallowed it back abruptly.

Glancing at Li Zhi, Li Li looked solemn, and said beyond doubt: "If the military commander is missing a hair, I'll ask you, Li Zicheng!"

"Promise, the last general will take orders!" Seeing that Li Li's mind had been made up, Li Zhi replied respectfully without further words.

Before the words were finished, Zhuge Liang interjected: "My lord's move is very inappropriate. General Zicheng is the commander of my lord's personal guard, and he should protect my lord's safety. How can I stay by my side? What's more, my lord's leading the army to charge into battle this time is precisely When employing people, with General Zicheng guarding the left and right, we should be able to make sure that everything is done. I stay in the rear of the Chinese army, and there are more than [-] infantry soldiers by my side, safe and sound. Therefore, I implore the lord to take back the order, and please think twice .”

Li Li shook his head when he heard the sound, and said without hesitation: "Kong Ming doesn't need to say much, this matter is settled like this. Zicheng stays to protect you, so that I can rest assured and lead the army to fight without distractions. Otherwise, if you make a mistake, how will I treat you?" Sister, explain?" I originally wanted to say: If you make a mistake, my loss will be great.But Li Li felt that saying this was too blunt and too utilitarian, so he improvised to use Kong Ming's sister Zhuge Ling as a shield.

After speaking, seeing that Zhuge Liang was still arguing, Li Li waved his hand to signal that he didn't need to say more, then turned his head to look at Li Zhi, and gave him a look that only he could understand.Li Zhi understood immediately, Zheng nodded his head, and rode his horse to follow behind Kong Ming, as expected, he never left or left.

Li Li smiled knowingly when he saw this, and then he held the golden sword and raised the rein to steer the horse. The Hualiu horse under his crotch was very spiritual.Li Li on the horse's back swung his saber straight away, and shouted loudly: "Jin Yiwei listens to the order and takes the head of the barbarian chief. Follow me to fight and kill!" With Li Li riding Juechen, he went straight to the front of the formation.

More than [-] golden guard cavalry came out in response, leaping their horses and swinging their whips, followed Li Li and rushed to the front of the formation.

"My lord treats Zhuge Liang so kindly, I will definitely follow him to the death, and do my best!" Seeing Li Lili leading the army to the front of the battlefield, Zhuge Liang was dazed and muttered to himself, his gratitude was beyond words.

Li Zhi, who was standing behind him, heard the words, a gleam flashed in his eyes. Looking at the back of Li Li's unrestrained horse, he sincerely admired secretly: "My lord is really a god and man, and every move has a deep meaning!" It didn't happen for no reason, but it happened for a reason.

Prior to this, Li Li did not send generals to protect Zhuge Liang's safety, which is rare in the Xiliang army.To this day, all civilian officials above the county guard or generals whose martial arts are not in the ranks of top warriors are protected by personal guards with high martial arts skills.Among them, people like Li Xian, Li Xuan, Li Ru, Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Lu Su, Zhou Yu, Li Jue and others also specially formed personal guards, ranging from 300 to [-] people. There are five hundred soldiers in the camp.However, because Zhuge Liang's qualifications are still young and he has just arrived, there are no guards around him to protect him.

Just now, Ta Dun led the army to less than 100 meters in front of the commander's platform, but Zhuge Liang was standing on the commander's platform.Stay within the range of the Wuhuan cavalry's bow and arrow.At that moment, without the protection of guards around Zhuge Liang, it was undoubtedly extremely dangerous; once the Wuhuan cavalry drew their bows and galloped to shoot.His life was in danger.But at that time, Li Li did not send Li Zhi to protect him.It can be seen from this that although Li Li thinks highly of Zhuge Liang, he is far from blindly trusting him, otherwise he would definitely not put Zhuge Liang in danger.

However, after Zhuge Liang used the chariot crossbow array to repel the Tadun army and displayed his miraculous ability to use troops, Li Li's attention to him immediately rose countless steps.He actually left Li Zhi by his side for personal protection.These two completely different treatments are really thought-provoking and interesting.

blah blah blah!

In the middle of the battlefield.Stepping on the corpses of the Wuhuan barbarian army, the Jinyiwei iron cavalry rushed like a tide, rushing towards the Wuhuan army a hundred paces away like a mountain roaring and a tsunami.

At this moment, there were no less than [-] Wuhuan iron cavalry in front of them, and Tadun, who had escaped from the crossbow arrows before, suddenly reined in his horses.Su Puyan was also beside him.At this moment, Ta Dun panicked.Looking at the corpses in front of him, he felt lingering fear, and his eyes were dull and flustered.

However, the battle was not over. The Wuhuan and Xianbei coalition forces were not defeated. The death of more than 13 Wuhuan cavalry was insignificant to the [-] coalition troops. It had nothing to do with the overall situation. The coalition forces could still defeat the Han army and win the final victory.This is a self-comforting thought.It is also self-encouragement when facing the surging rush of tens of thousands of Han army cavalry.However, when he turned his head to look at the Wuhuan army behind him.But he couldn't help but his heart tightened, and the fighting spirit he had finally mobilized was immediately frustrated, and he was very discouraged.

In an instant, Ta Dun also had an epiphany.

The crossbow formation just now did not have the ability to kill all the Wuhuan cavalry. Less than 1 Wuhuan soldiers were actually shot, but as many as 6000 Wuhuan cavalry died in the chaos of horseshoe trampling and killing each other. .what does that mean?This means that the tens of thousands of troops led by Ta Dun were terrified by the crossbows of the Han army.It also means that the more than [-] soldiers who survived the crossbow arrows have completely lost their fighting spirit, have no fighting spirit, and have lost their morale.How is a group of prairie wolves who have lost their ferocity and fighting spirit different from lambs waiting to be slaughtered?

Seeing the iron cavalry of the Han army getting closer and closer, Ta Dun was very anxious, with a gloomy expression, and was in a dilemma.

Knowing that the army behind him has no fighting spirit, as their leader, Ta Dun should make a decisive decision and withdraw his troops immediately, otherwise he will let the sons behind him stay here to die.However, the two-wing soldiers and horses were fighting with the two-wing cavalry of the Han army. The [-] coalition troops were entangled with the [-] Han troops, and it was absolutely impossible to withdraw from the battle immediately.If Tadun took the lead in withdrawing from the battlefield at this time, he would undoubtedly disregard the life and death of the allied forces on both wings, betray their trust, and be selfish.If this is the case, how will Tadun and his tribe gain a foothold on the grassland in the future?

However, if he tried his best to fight, the result would be a massacre, and this was exactly what Ta Dun didn't want to see the most.Because the army behind him is all warriors from him and the Su Puyan tribe, they belong to the absolute lineage.If his own soldiers and horses suffered too many casualties, his and Su Boyan's status in the Wuhuan tribe would inevitably plummet in the future, and they would be in jeopardy. They might even be annexed by other tribes.

Facing a difficult choice, Tadun turned his head to look at Su Buyan, just in time to meet Su Buyan's begging eyes.Immediately, the two looked at each other, nodded tacitly, and reached a consensus.

Immediately, Ta Dun jumped out of the battle and yelled loudly: "Warriors, fight to the death with the Han army! Kill!" He shouted and shouted, but Ta Dun's next move was very strange.I saw him and Su Puyan running separately from the left and the right, not rushing to the front of the formation, but galloping to both sides of the central army, and then galloping from the gap between the central army and the two wings, towards the vast mountains behind .

Obviously, Ta Dun and Su Puyan led their troops to withdraw

Chapter 964 Killing the Wolf, the Loyal Soul of the Han Bone

As Ta Dun and Su Puyan led more than [-] Wuhuan iron cavalry to withdraw from the battlefield, the entire battle situation was reversed, and the dawn of victory began to shift from the barbarian army to the Han army.

However, the central army led by Ta Dun retreated slowly after all, and there was no clear order to retreat, so that the Wuhuan cavalry in the middle of the army were at a loss.As a result, the unresponsive Wuhuan cavalry met head-on with the Jinyiwei cavalry led by Li Lili, and completely lost the chance to escape from the battlefield.

After a fight, more than [-] Wuhuan cavalry were forced to confront Jin Yiwei, and the result was just as Ta Dun expected.Facing the high-morale Jin Yiwei charging head-on, the five thousand Wuhuan iron cavalry were almost powerless to fight back. They were killed in a single charge, and there were only a few survivors.On the other hand, Jin Yiwei marched forward bravely, unstoppable, swept more than [-] Wuhuan cavalry with overwhelming momentum, easily wiped them out, and won a complete victory.

However, it was these unresponsive Wuhuan cavalry who stayed behind to block the charge of Jin Yiwei, so that Ta Dun and Su Puyan could successfully lead an army of more than [-] to leave the battlefield quickly and escape.

Seeing Ta Dun and his subordinates retreat completely, Li Li was very unwilling, but the current situation did not allow him to lead his troops to chase and kill Ta Dun's army.At this time, the duel of war cavalry on the two wings of the battlefield is at a critical moment, and the fierce battle is in full swing.If there is no external force to join, the Youzhou camp led by Gongsun Zan on the left wing will be in danger, and the situation facing the Wushuang cavalry under Zhao Yun on the right wing will not be optimistic, with heavy casualties.
