The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

"what happened?"

Wu Fu came out and immediately frowned and glanced at the soldiers outside.

Then his face changed.

And Ma Teng also came out from the tent.

"what happened?"

Suddenly, Ma Teng's face changed along with Wu Fu's.

"The enemy's navy?"

"Not good, the enemy army is coming to attack at this time, quickly lead people to defend, my cavalry is still crossing the river, we cannot let these water troops destroy the ships."

Ma Teng immediately understood what impact the appearance of these ships would have on them.

He took a look at the wooden bridge over the White River. At this moment, the cavalry were still slowly crossing the river.

At this time, the water army led by Zu Lang was already heading towards the position of the wooden bridge, and Huang Zhong on the warship had already ordered the soldiers to stand on the deck and start shooting as soon as they approached.

However, before Huang Zhong started shooting, Wu Fu on the river bank had already started commanding the soldiers and horses, and shot arrows at the battlefield first.

Whoosh whoosh.

Arrows flew over from the river bank, from a long distance, and these arrows did not hit the battlefield, but directly landed on the river.

Huang Zhong took a look and snorted coldly.

"Hmph, at this level, you dare to make a fool of yourself in front of me?"

"Le Jin, show them some color, let the two thousand shooters shoot with precision, and shoot the enemy's shooters first."

Huang Zhong immediately gave Le Jin some instructions.

Le Jin immediately commanded the flag bearers and began to signal on the battlefield.

Soon the soldiers on each warship immediately understood Huang Zhong's meaning.

With the wave of the battle flag, the archers who had already taken out their bows and arrows immediately launched the first round of counterattacks against the river bank.

shhhhhh!

Two thousand archers made precise shots, aimed at the soldiers on the other side, and fired more than two thousand arrows.

These 2000 people are all archers who Huang Zhong has trained hard for several years. Everyone's archery skills are very good, and some of them are outstanding. They already have [-] to [-]% of Huang Zhong's archery skills.

With such skills, it is not a problem to shoot and kill some soldiers of the opponent at such a long distance.

At a distance of more than 100 steps, he shot and killed many of Wu Fu's soldiers.

Chapter 1000 two hundred 77

The screams came from the river bank.

These shooters on the river bank did not cause much damage to Huang Zhong's soldiers and horses, but when these shooters under Huang Zhong attacked the river bank.

But it caused great damage to the shooters under Wu Fu on the river bank.

Of Wu Fu's 3000 troops, 2000 are shooters.

In order to target these warships on the water, these archers ran to the shore to shoot arrows at the battlefield, but it was precisely because they were close to the shore that Huang Zhong on the warship had the opportunity for these archers.

Three to four hundred people were shot down by a round of arrows, and they were directly injured.

There are also some who are not fatally shot and have not completely lost their combat effectiveness.

After they saw how powerful these shooters under Huang Zhong were, they all panicked and started to run away one after another.

Thinking of distance, and then seek opportunities.

The shooters of both sides immediately shocked Wu Fu in this first round of confrontation.

Wu Fu is also a general with some strength.

Although these trained archers are not top-notch, they are all good at archery.

What Wu Fu didn't expect was that his arrows couldn't hit the opponent, but the opponent could shoot and kill his soldiers and horses.

The gap between the two sides was immediately apparent in this first round of confrontation.

After realizing that his archer was not as good as the opponent, Wu Fu was also very decisive, and began to yell to order the soldiers and horses around him to retreat and stop attacking the opponent with arrows.

Huang Zhong's warship quickly rushed towards the wooden bridge.

Without the obstruction of the enemy troops on both sides of the strait, their warship speed quickly reached the position of the wooden bridge.

The soldiers on the front line immediately attacked the cavalry on the wooden bridge in the distance.

This time, it was no longer Huang Zhong's shooters who attacked, but those with Zhuge Liannu.

The shooting of bow and arrow archers is mainly based on single shooting.

And Zhuge Liannu's shooting is range damage.

The purpose is to kill those enemy cavalry in a large area.

After approaching the wooden bridge, Huang Zhong immediately gave the order.

"shooting!"

With a stern shout, the flag bearer began to wave the flag, and Huang Zhong's order had been transmitted to all places.

The men and horses closest to the wooden bridge on the many warships have already begun to show off the Zhuge Liannu in their hands.

And under Huang Zhong's command, he immediately started shooting at the cavalry on the wooden bridge.

Whoosh whoosh.

Shhhhhh.

Countless arrows began to appear here, directly killing the wooden bridge.

There were not many soldiers and horses passing by on the wooden bridge one by one, but Zhuge Liannu shot over, not to kill those soldiers, but to destroy the wooden bridge.

Thus, the cavalry on both sides who were crossing the river were separated.

Then, Huang Zhong's shooters could start shooting at the shore on both sides unscrupulously.

The first round of shooting fell directly on the wooden bridge, and immediately killed the cavalry on the wooden bridge.

Those war horses were disturbed, and they let out a sound of howling. In a panic, many war horses began to run back.

After Huang Zhong saw this scene, he soon realized that there was no need for a second round of shooting.

This shooting alone was enough to make the cavalry on the wooden bridge afraid to continue running down.

"Change the shooting target and start shooting at the enemies on the left river bank!"

Huang Zhong gave another order.

Most of the warships on the entire river began to shoot at the surrounding river banks.

This time, the shooting was not so regular, but became soldiers on the warship, shooting at will.

The trigger of the Zhuge Liannu was pulled immediately, and arrows were continuously fired from the warship.

Messy, scattered arrows flew out.

With just a few shots like this, the cavalry on both sides were completely out of order. Although some cavalry had bows and arrows, most of the Xiliang iron cavalry were mainly heavy cavalry, and few of them were good at shooting.

Even if there are some archers, it is difficult to use these bows and arrows to shoot at the warship where Huang Zhong is.

With just a few shots, the shooters on the warship directly attacked the cavalry on both sides of the strait.

The cavalry were scattered. Fortunately, these people already knew how to deal with the attacks of Huang Zhong and other shooters.

Several of the generals quickly ordered the soldiers to retreat and leave the sides of the river bank.

Only then did he avoid being shot and killed by these shooters of Huang Zhong.

However, the process is still lengthy.

Among them, many enemy soldiers were shot and killed.

After all the enemy troops retreated out of the shooting range, Huang Zhong looked at these people before giving up.

"The attack was successful. Although not all the soldiers and horses of the enemy army could be wiped out, a lot of people were killed. Let's retreat."

There are more than 2 cavalry here. As long as the cavalry is determined not to fight Huang Zhong's men, there is no way for Huang Zhong and his men to kill all [-] cavalry.

It can only do some damage, and how much it can kill is counted.

After all, as long as some enemy cavalry were killed, the pressure on Liu Zheng and the others in Xinye City would be much less.

"Are we going to withdraw now? General Huang, don't you continue to attack? The enemy army has been killed by us and has no power to fight back. If we pursue them, we can still give them a wave of blows."

Zu Lang saw that his side's morale was high and he had a huge upper hand. Now that he pursued him, he should be able to deal a wave of blows to the opponent.

But Huang Zhong shook his head.

"No need, the enemy army is all cavalry. If we land on the shore and they give us a carbine, we will be caught off guard by him. It's not certain who will win the battle."

"If you take advantage, leave first, leave some soldiers and horses, and stay here. As long as these cavalry dare to cross the river, we will attack them."

Huang Zhong understands his own strengths very well, and at the same time, he also knows what the opponent's weaknesses are.

I want to suppress the opponent without losing any price.

It can only rule the roost on this water.

After Huang Zhong said that, Zu Lang naturally didn't want to say anything more.

Anyway, he took some advantage, and for Zu Lang, he got some credit, and he didn't have to sacrifice his own life for more credit.

"Since this is the case, let's withdraw for the time being. This time our attack should have caused the enemy's loss of 4000 to [-] people, which is enough."

"The battle is still going on, and the future will be long."

Zu Lang sighed, and began to order the helmsmen of the warships under his command to control the battlefield one by one, and go back.

But the warships left, not all in a swarm.

Still according to what Huang Zhong said, a part was left to garrison here to prevent the enemy troops on both sides from crossing the river again.

With these people, Ma Teng is also very upset.

Chapter 1000 Two hundred and 78

Ma Teng and Wu Fu ran out of the barracks.

Seeing that Huang Zhong had taken his men and horses away.

Calm was restored on the water, and Ma Teng, with a gloomy face, began to restrain his remaining soldiers and horses to clean up the battlefield.

"Damn it, there are so many waters in Jingzhou, and the water surface extends in all directions. If there is no navy, it is really difficult to compete with Liu Zheng's troops."

"Just like now, his soldiers and horses come out of the water. Our archers are very different from his archers. As long as they stand on the water, they are invincible. Only he can attack us, but we can't attack him. .”

"This kind of battle is really too aggrieved!"

On the one hand, Ma Teng directed the troops to assemble the remaining soldiers and horses, and on the other hand, he sighed for this battle.

It is true to say that he took 2 cavalry to attack Deng County. He had no losses and took down a county.

At this point they had the upper hand.

But who knows, on the way back, Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses put him together.

The cavalry under Ma Teng's command was immediately torn apart by the sudden appearance of these water troops.

Although the loss of soldiers and horses is not particularly large, only three to 4000 people.

But this also made Ma Teng extremely depressed.

What I lost was three or four thousand cavalry.

But the other party has nothing to lose.

What makes him even more distressed is that once this kind of battle happens a few more times, he really can't stand it. The number of cavalry under his command is not particularly large. If he does this a few more times, his cavalry will soon be Can't bear it.

Wu Fu, who was standing next to Ma Teng, was also very depressed.

He had been stationed on this river for some time, but he had never seen how powerful Liu Zheng's navy was. He thought he could hold the waters with these thousands of troops.
