Chapter 487: Force Xianbei to retreat

The Sun family's army also set up a defensive formation.

Tuoba Yu looked at Prince Gong and Sun Ming, "Prince Gong and General Sun, this is our grudge against Xianbei and Pingzhou. You can just watch. Of course, if you have other ideas, we are not afraid."

Tuoba Yu's tone was arrogant, as if he didn't care about the alliance between the Dali imperial court and Pingzhou. They were confident that they would catch them all in one fell swoop.

General Sun frowned. He wanted to join forces with Pingzhou. There were internal and external enemies. No matter what, Xianbei was a foreigner and a cruel foreigner. He would just annihilate them if he had the chance.

But Prince Gong didn't allow it. The Dali court had already negotiated terms with Xianbei. Now they were going to war. It would be good if they won. If they lost, who knew what the consequences would be?

Moreover, the Xianbei army and the Pingzhou rebels were about to fight, and Prince Gong was simply overjoyed.

Under the suppression of Prince Gong, the Sun army was immobile, but Tuoba Xun did not send all the Xianbei troops into the battlefield, apparently to prepare for any emergencies.

The Xianbei army and the bow and arrow battalion of Hepingzhou set up their formation.

The archers of the Xianbei army were in position, preparing to attack.

Pingzhou, on the other hand, put on a defensive posture.

At the beginning of the negotiation, after being reminded by Pingzhou, the imperial court clearly requested that Xianbei should not bring cavalry. If they did, there would be no negotiation.

The Xianbei royal court agreed, and they were also arrogant. They felt that even without cavalry, their Xianbei infantry could still defeat the Da Li soldiers.

As the horn of the Xianbei attack sounded, the Xianbei soldiers advanced slowly with shields and archers holding bows and arrows.

After the distance between the two sides shortened to a certain extent, the Xianbei soldiers began to shoot out the arrows in their hands.

Nothing happened here in Pingzhou. The generals of the Sun Army who were watching frowned. Do the Xianbei archers have such a long range?

Sun Congyi, who was hiding in the Sun family army, was also worried. He knew very well that the level of the archery battalions of the Li army was not as good as that of Xianbei.Now that the Pingzhou Archer Battalion is facing them, won't they be suppressed and beaten by the Xianbei army?

At this moment, the Pingzhou Archery Camp also moved.

Surprisingly, not only did the Pingzhou Archer Battalion bear the shooting from Xianbei archers, but Xianbei's shield bearers and archers also entered the shooting range of the Pingzhou Archer Battalion.

The two sides changed from what others thought was a unilateral shooting by Xianbei archers to a situation where archers shot at each other.

These changes made Tuoba Xun and others frown.

In the past, because the arm strength and accuracy of the Xianbei archers were superior to those of Dali, their Xianbei archers had a longer shooting range than those of Dali.

When the archers from both sides faced off, Xianbei had an absolute advantage. A hail of arrows was fired, which was an overwhelming blow to the Dali army.

Now Tuoba Xun and Dugu Zhong and others discovered that Pingzhou's bow and arrow battalion was not weak and was not inferior to them at all.In other words, their Xianbei archers did not have an advantage.

At this time, there were also some commotions in the vanguard of the Xianbei army.

The Xianbei archers found that if they were far away, their arrows would not be able to hit the opponent. If they moved forward, the hit rate would be higher, but they would also be within the opponent's range.

Pingzhou soldiers are on the defensive side. They follow orders and prohibitions, fight steadily and never shoot randomly.They didn't panic at all and wasted no bow or arrow.

The two sides fought back and forth.

The Youzhou soldiers on the side were very passionate when they saw that the Xianbei soldiers were fierce and brave. They had encountered the Xianbei army in the wild before, and they had only been tortured.

Now they finally saw an army that could fight against the Xianbei army!

deadlock!

Both sides are equally powerful, and no one can do anything to the other!

Tuobaxun discussed with Duguzhong and Yuchirui and decided to change their tactics!

Xianbei soldiers are physically strong and have advantages in close combat.As long as their soldiers can rush to the Pingzhou soldiers, dealing with them is as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.

Under the command of Tuoba Xun, Xianbei blew the horn of charge.

Woo hoo——Ming——

General Sun and others held their breath unconsciously, "The Xianbei army is about to charge!"

A group of burly and strong Xianbei men rushed in front with Dunjia and swords, followed by Xianbei archers, and finally the Xianbei infantry.

Xian Feng was right next to Lu Desheng, protecting him nearby. When he saw the strong Xianbei man rushing over, he curled his lips and said, "It's a pity that our Li clan's elephant herd is not here, otherwise these people wouldn't be enough for the elephants one by one."

General Sun and other generals looked solemn. If the Xianbei army succeeded in charging, Pingzhou's bow and arrow camp would be dispersed.

Dali soldiers had no advantage against Xianbei soldiers.

"Look, General Qin Heng has changed his battle formation!"

Qin Heng saw the Xianbei army charging and gave instructions to the adjutant beside him. The adjutant waved the formation flag vigorously, while the Pingzhou army beat the drum.

On the Pingzhou side, the battle formation also changed accordingly.

Originally, after one group of archers finished shooting the arrows in the quivers, they took advantage of the gap between changing the quivers and then replaced them with another group of archers.

Now the soldiers of Pingzhou stood in three rows and took turns to shoot.

The first row of soldiers shot an arrow, bowed and retreated, and quickly switched to the second row of archers to step forward and shoot, while the third row of archers stepped forward to standby, and so on.

The bow and arrow camp is prohibited by law, and the shooting rhythm is particularly good.

When the generals of the Sun Army saw this scene, their eyes lit up, "What kind of tactics is this?" Everyone can be generals and has a strategic vision.

The tactics of the Pingzhou Bow and Archery Battalion made up for the shortcomings of the low frequency of bow and arrow shooting when arrows could not be fired continuously.

If Qin Sheng were here, he would kindly tell them that this is a three-stage shooting method.

Under the beating of exciting drums, the archers of the Pingzhou Archery Battalion fired a dense rain of arrows directly at the Xianbei soldiers.

The Xianbei soldiers were not afraid of death and marched forward despite the rain of arrows.

As the saying goes, two fists are no match for four hands. Even if the leading Xianbei soldier had a shield and a knife, he could not stop the arrows that were densely packed from all angles and everywhere.

The result of the battle was remarkable. The leading Xianbei soldiers fell one by one.

As soon as they fell, there was no shielder to protect them, and the archers and soldiers behind them also suffered disaster and fell in batches.

Seeing this exciting scene, Prince Gong and other civil and military officials in Dali, as well as the Sun family army, were all shocked.

Tuoba Xun and others looked ugly. It was obvious that their tactics failed completely against Pingzhou's special shooting method.

"If we continue, as long as Pingzhou has enough arrows, it will be difficult for our warriors to break through the opponent's defense line." Yuchi Rui said bluntly.

Tuoba Xun's face was ashen, and he knew very well that what General Yuchi said was the truth.

Dugu Zhong also said, "It's a pity that our Xianbei cavalry is not here. For a while, there is nothing we can do about them."

Tuoba Yu: "Let them retreat. If they push forward any further, they will lose their lives."

woo woo woo woo--

The horn of Xianbei's retreat sounded, and on the battlefield, the remaining Xianbei soldiers retreated like a tide.

Pingzhou's archery battalion stopped shooting and was all on standby. They didn't even change their posture.
