Chapter 111 The Might of a Strong Bow and a Crossbow

"The battle drum battalion has issued an order, the left-wing army, the right-wing army, and the three-winged crossbowmen of the central army are in place. This time, this general will destroy the Yiqu Iron Cavalry in one battle!"

Wang Xiaojie shouted loudly that the Anxi Army, as a Jagged Elite, naturally had a different commanding method from that of the entire army during the Warring States Period when they saw the command of the Chinese Army's Da Tao Lingqi. !

"promise!"

Hearing the order of the general, the thousands of soldiers of the war drum battalion immediately moved, and hundreds of drums made a special, steady and orderly drum sound, and the sound of horns from hundreds of horns also resounded on the grassland.

The 100,000 Yiqu Iron Cavalry, who was running wildly, heard the sound of the horn and was a little confused, but still maintained a charging posture, but great changes had taken place inside the Anxi Army's black shield defense line.

The ordinary infantrymen retreated one after another, and each of the three-wing army had 8,000 men, and a total of 24,000 bowmen equipped with powerful bows and crossbows took their places directly.

The Anxi Army is stationed in West Asia all year round. In order to deal with the complex situation in West Asia, its army composition is naturally different from other armies, which are mainly infantry.

The composition of the Anxi Army is mainly composed of large-scale bowmen and cavalry units, otherwise Wang Xiaojie would not be able to use so many bowmen to carry out intensive attacks at this moment!

"The army is in battle, and the bowmen of the three armies are launched!"

Following Wang Xiaojie's order, the Anxi soldier who was in charge of raising the black round shield suddenly put down the round shield and pulled away. The situation inside made the Yiqu cavalry rushing at the forefront take a deep breath.

I saw that the number of bowmen of the Qin army, who were neatly arranged, ready to bend their bows and strings, was probably more numerous than the number of bowmen of the Yiqu clan.

"Fire arrows!"

With an order, the Qin army sent thousands of arrows in unison, and 24,000 crossbow arrows rushed into the sky. The dense arrows even blocked the light, making the already gloomy sky even more gloomy.

"Huh, huh..."

The sound of tearing the air seemed so harsh at this time. The 24,000 crossbow arrows directly collided with the charging Yiqu iron cavalry after the parabola and the reinforcement of the huge inertia resulted in an increase in the range and power.

"puff!"

The sound of sharp arrows piercing through the flesh continued to sound, and Yiqu cavalrymen fell powerlessly from their horses after being shot through their bodies by the sky-filled crossbow arrows and spewing a mouthful of blood.

Many Yiqu cavalrymen, after being pierced by crossbow arrows, splattered on the grassland with bursts of blood.

In addition, there were some more fortunate Yiqu cavalrymen who fell off their horses after being shot through by crossbow arrows and did not die immediately, but were turned into meat patties by the horseshoes of their companions who were still charging at the rear, who did not understand the situation.

Yiqu cavalrymen were continuously shot by the sky-filled crossbow arrows, and they fell in groups. According to visual estimation, under the intensive attack of the Anxi army's first wave of crossbow arrows, at least 5,000 cavalrymen in Yiqu were shot and killed.

The Yiqu cavalry kept falling down, but the Qin army's endless arrow rain still did not stop.

The Qin army crossbowmen standing in front immediately squatted down and equipped the arrows after firing the arrows in their hands, and then the bowmen in the back directly stepped forward and fired crossbow arrows again towards the oncoming Yiqu cavalry.

This cycle goes on and on, as if the Qin army's arrow formation in front of the battlefield is constantly undulating like waves in the sea, and each black wave's ups and downs will bring a rain of arrows all over the sky, and it will also take away countless lives.

Not only that, but at the end of the Qin army were hundreds of bed crossbows. These bed crossbows fired not arrows, but long spears. Each bed crossbow could fire three long spears at a time, with a range of more than 500 meters. .

These spears are mixed with the crossbow arrows in the sky, and if any unlucky Yiqu cavalry is shot, they will definitely be shot across.

Even the two or three companions in the back would be unlucky together. The few Yiqu cavalrymen who were shot and killed by the bed crossbow were strung together like a kebab, with a bowl-sized hole in their chest, and their intestines were scattered from the air. .

"The general's Anxi army is worthy of being hidden by the king for a long time. It has such a powerful bow and crossbow army. It seems that the general's statement that he wants to destroy the Yiqu iron cavalry in one battle is true!"

Zhang Han also sighed when he saw the corpses of the Yiqu Iron Cavalry, which was blocked by the powerful bow and crossbow troops of the Anxi Army, and could not enter an inch.

The Anxi Army's tens of thousands of bow and crossbow troops are all equipped with bows and crossbows made of iron, as well as crossbows whose range and power are close to those of South Korean crossbows. Maybe Yiqu really wants to throw 100,000 iron cavalry here.

"General Zhang Han is joking. If the Anxi army has no ability to look after the house, how can it be entrusted by the king to defend the 300,000 army of Yiqu with 100,000 people!"

"General Zhang Han, look it up, this general wants to let the 100,000 Yiqu Iron Cavalry not come into contact with our army, let him die half of it!"

Wang Xiaojie said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, looking at the purgatory-like scene with an appreciation in his heart.

"Oh, we'll have to wait and see!"

...

At this moment, a huge meat grinder has been formed on the grassland, the sound of war horses screaming, crying and begging for mercy, blood and internal organs spilled on the ground like a pair of Asura hell The purgatory scene seems to constitute a wonderful symphony .

It was obvious that there were only less than a hundred paces left from the Qin army, and the war horse could reach it in an instant, but the front seemed insurmountable like a moat.

And many tribal leaders of Yiquhe and Yiqu who had been watching the battle in the back also found something wrong. The formation of the Yiqu Iron Cavalry, which was originally black, became thinner as time passed.

Originally, they thought it was a prairie man fighting to the death with the Qin army, but now it seems that the attack is blocked, or even an inch is not allowed, and there are still huge casualties.

"Your Majesty, let's withdraw. The Qin army is really brave. I, Yiqusheng, are fighting in guerrilla warfare, so I can look for fighters when we are in the ring!"

"Now, I must never take my prairie man's life to head-on with the Qin army's golden horse."

"Qin State - invincible!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, withdraw your troops!"

"Your Majesty..."

Many tribal leaders persuaded them, but Yi Quhai was furious at this time: "Damn, this king doesn't believe it anymore. The Qin army's crossbow arrows are really inexhaustible, so I ordered the army to continue to attack, and wait until the Qin army crossbow arrows. After running out, you can fight!"

Looking at Yiquhe who was still going his own way, many tribal leaders began to feel heartache. I really didn't expect that Yiquhe, the king of Yiqu, would be so disregarding the overall situation that he wanted to take the life of a prairie man to face Qin Jun's strength. Arrow formation formed by bow and crossbow.

Immediately, many tribal leaders looked at the back of Yi Quhe who was still roaring, and their eyes became complicated and inexplicable.
