Chapter 201: The Power of the Heavenly Crossbow Arrow Array
"The army listens to the order and prepares to start the Heavenly Crossbow Arrow Formation."
Looking at the ready-made bow and crossbow army, Gan Mao gave an attack order with a wave of his hand.
Hearing the order, Wang Yan prepared an extremely large bow and crossbow army with a total of more than 20,000 Qin soldiers and various powerful bows and crossbows.
The sound of the various bows and crossbows turning, the bow and crossbow launching devices were all raised, the bed crossbows were ready, and the bows and crossbows were loaded with arrows of at least two feet.
The Qin army officers who operated more than 2,000 heavy crossbows were ready.
As for the remaining 10,000 Qin soldiers who were manipulating bows and crossbows, they all sat on the ground, manipulating the heavy bows and crossbows on the ground in front of them.
Load another row of black arrows on the bow and crossbow.
Immediately, these Qin soldiers lay on their backs directly on the ground, pulling the bowstring with both hands, kicking the bow with both legs, and raising the shooting angle, ready to launch.
In the eyes of ordinary people, bows and crossbows are controlled by hand, and in fact it is true, but it is only limited to ordinary bows and crossbows.
In the face of this heavier, longer range and more lethal heavy crossbow, it is necessary to use both hands and feet to control it.
As for the power of the bow and crossbow that can be used to the extreme in the world, only the Qin state is unique.
"Fire arrows!"
Gan Mao turned around and ordered.
"Cum clap clap..."
The bowstrings of countless bows and crossbows trembled, big and small, and the Heavenly Crossbow Arrow Formation prepared by Wang Yan for the coalition army was also launched at this time.
Countless arrows of different lengths rose into the sky like a black dragon.
Tens of thousands of powerful crossbow arrows jumped up from behind the Hangu Pass city wall and shot towards the coalition forces under Hangu Pass.
"It's just past noon, why is it getting dark?"
This strange thought popped up in the hearts of the 100,000 coalition troops who were at the transition between retreat and attack.
But immediately the hearts of countless coalition soldiers were replaced by fear.
Looking up at the dark cloud that covered the sky and the sun, many veterans in the battlefield instantly analyzed what this terrifying dark cloud represented, and no one was terrified.
"Back up, back down!"
"Quick, the army retreats at full speed!"
"Shield hands hold shields, defense, defense!"
Wang Liao, who was leading the army and preparing to switch positions, roared hoarsely.
However, the 100,000 coalition forces that had already formed a group under Hangu Pass could not be effectively evaded.
People can only shove each other back wildly, or even step on each other, but they can't step back.
Dao Tuo, Tian Wen and others who suddenly watched such a dramatic change from the back were even more terrified.
Such a terrifying formation of 10,000 arrows could only be launched in the coalition with an army of 300,000.
Seeing such a drastic change, everyone was shocked, and they all sweated for the coalition soldiers who were about to be attacked by thousands of arrows.
"boom!"
Tens of thousands of arrow feathers poured down on the heads of the 100,000 coalition forces like a torrential rain.
Countless coalition soldiers were instantly torn apart by the terrifying powerful bow and crossbow, and the killing range was constantly expanding.
"what……"
Countless coalition soldiers who were hit by thousands of arrows all screamed, and then fell to the ground powerless.
According to visual estimates, it was only the first wave of attacks, and the 100,000 coalition forces suffered no less than 3,000 casualties.
In fact, this is also the result of the terrain of Hangu Pass, and the 100,000 coalition forces can only form a group.
Under the attack of the terrifying Heavenly Crossbow Arrow Formation, he was regarded as a living target.
Not only that, but waves of arrows continued to fly from behind the Hanguguan city wall, pouring down on the coalition forces like a gust of wind and rain.
Originally, it was dark, like a dark cloud, and the densely crowded coalition soldiers under Hangu Pass were attacked by the Heavenly Crossbow Arrow Array, and they were lined up like dominoes and collapsed on a large scale.
The Heavenly Crossbow Arrow Array that Wang Yan had worked so hard to prepare for the coalition army also showed its most powerful effect at this time, mercilessly harvesting one fresh life after another like a harvester.
The shieldmen of the coalition were undoubtedly lucky at this time, because the shields on their bodies could give them the greatest protection.
However, there were also some unlucky allied shield players who were directly hit by the Qin army's heavy bed crossbow, and their shields were torn apart.
"The army retreats in an orderly manner, and those who violate the order will be executed."
Among the coalition forces, Wang Liao, who was holding a shield, roared loudly.
Looking at the fallen coalition soldiers, Wang Liao's heart was bleeding!
This is the elite of the country, and even Qin Jun's body has been damaged so much before it gets close. How should I explain it when I go back?
And Wang Liao is worthy of being a famous general of all countries, seeing that the situation is about to get out of control and out of control.
After leading the personal guards to personally kill dozens of coalition soldiers who were pushing and retreating, the situation was gradually stabilized, and the coalition began to retreat in an orderly manner.
As the coalition army gradually retreated from the range of the Qin army's bow and crossbow, Wang Yan also ordered the bow and crossbow army to stop attacking.
"General, today's victory is gratifying!"
I saw Gan Mao, who ran from under the city wall to the upstairs of Hangu Pass, looked at Wang Yan and said excitedly.
"The Skybow Arrow array prepared by the general for the coalition is really terrifying!"
"Under the blow of the Heavenly Crossbow Arrow Formation, the one-time casualties of the coalition forces are probably close to 40,000, while our Qin soldiers have only lost less than 2,000."
"With the General's Heavenly Crossbow and Arrow Array, combined with today's situation, it is more than enough to stick to Hangu Pass for half a month. Even if the reinforcements are climbing, they should climb there!"
Gan Mao couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, but Wang Yan was not happy at all.
"General Gan Mao, although the Heavenly Crossbow Arrow Array is powerful, the coalition forces that have already suffered will not be easily fooled."
Wang Yan sighed and said, Gan Mao was stunned when he heard the words, but also reacted.
"Yes, anyone who has suffered such a big loss will not be easily fooled."
"Besides, although the Heavenly Crossbow Arrow Array is powerful, it cannot avoid a fatal problem, that is, there are not so many crossbow arrows for it to consume."
Gan Mao was also helpless in his heart.
Thinking of the terrifying amount consumed by the Heavenly Crossbow Arrow Array just now, even Gan Mao couldn't help but feel a little bit of shock.
The Heavenly Crossbow Arrow Formation consumes 15,000 arrows at one time, and just now the Heavenly Crossbow Arrow Formation has carried out a total of more than twenty rounds of 10,000 arrows.
A total of nearly 350,000 arrows were fired, otherwise the coalition would never have suffered such huge casualties.
The number of arrows consumed is already nearly half of the entire Hangu Pass reserves, and it is unrealistic to use the Heavenly Crossbow Arrow Formation to defend against the enemy.
"Then General, how will you defend against the enemy in the future?"
Gan Mao asked curiously.
"Stand by for help!"
"The second wave of enemy troops should have arrived under Hangu Pass, so let's use the second ultimate move."
After Wang Yan finished speaking, he began to inspect and condolences to the wounded soldiers of the Qin army under Hangu Pass.
"Reinforcement, are there any reinforcements?"
Gan Mao looked at the fallen soldiers of the Qin army and the corpses of the coalition army that had been piled up nearly ten feet high under Hangu Pass, with a scale of seven or eighty thousand.
