The Human Emperor

Chapter 2161 Shield-Car Joint Formation!

The ballista was a lethal weapon of the Tang Dynasty. It was made by the top craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry and was not created by Wang Chong.

Many armies of the Tang Dynasty were equipped with crossbows, and Albus's Tongluo cavalry were also equipped with several. This type of crossbow was extremely powerful and extremely sharp, and could not be withstood by just a few steel plates.

Regardless of whether it was the Battle of the Southwest or the Battle of the Northwest, the Wusi Tibetans and the Great Eaters could not resist even if they wore thick armor. When the crossbow arrows passed by, five, six, or even more than ten cavalrymen and armored soldiers were covered by the blanket. How can a mere steel plate be able to withstand layer-by-layer penetration?

"It's not that simple. What's the mystery? You'll find out after a while."

Wang Chong said calmly.

Wang Chong never underestimates his opponents, whether in his previous life or this life.

An Lushan may look chubby, honest and deceptive, but he is actually more cunning than anyone else, not to mention that he has noble support around him.

Although Wang Chong didn't know the difference between those shield vehicles, he also knew that they were not as simple as they seemed on the surface.

At that moment, the heaven and the earth were quiet, and there was no sound. In terms of the countries, including Usumis Khan, Yuan Gaisuwen, King Khitan, Queen Xi, and the coalition forces of other countries, everyone's eyes were focused on the tens of thousands of people. On the shield car of the plan.

——The first wave of contact directly determines the subsequent battle situation.

In front, all the Youzhou soldiers shrank and hid behind the shield car. Their eyes crossed the top of the shield car's steel plate and secretly looked at the steel crossbows set up on the wall in the opposite steel fortress, especially the flashing crossbows. The tip of the arrow shines with cold light, and everyone's heart trembles with fear.

Regardless of whether they are in the East or the West, almost every country in the world knows about the power of crossbows. If possible, no one would be willing to expose themselves to such a terrifying killing weapon.

Although there is a thick steel plate in front of him, it cannot bring anyone the slightest sense of security. The military orders are like mountains, but no matter how reluctant they are deep down in their hearts, they can't help it and have to bite the bullet.

Five hundred feet, four hundred feet, three hundred feet...

This range is already within the powerful killing range of the crossbow.

"Roa!"

At this moment, a continuous sound of steel machinery came from the steel fortress. The sound of mechanical friction passed through the wind and reached the ears of the shield warriors. All the Youzhou warriors hiding behind swallowed unconsciously. saliva,

Showing a nervous expression.

"Prepare!"

At the same time, a cold voice came from the steel fortress.

Su Hanshan was dressed in iron armor and had piercing eyes as he stared at the shield car approaching outside the fortress. He also noticed something unusual about the shield cars outside the city.

However, Su Hanshan decided to launch the crossbow and test it out.

"emission!"

The next moment, just as those shield vehicles entered the range of 280 feet, Su Hanshan's eyes flashed coldly, and he raised his right hand and swung it down suddenly.

"boom!"

In an instant, the earth was shattered, and with a loud noise that shook the earth, thousands of crossbow arrows roared like dragons, shooting towards the shield cart outside the city.

At that moment, there was a landslide and tsunami, and even time seemed to slow down countless times.

Everyone, including Wang Chong, Wang Zhongsi, Albus and others on the top of the city, all focused their attention on the battlefield ahead.

The crossbow arrows were very fast. Almost at the moment they were fired, they were packed with destructive power and hit the Youzhou shield carts more than 200 feet away at lightning speed.

boom!

In the eyes of everyone, a foot-long crossbow arrow was as thick as a thumb and extremely heavy. The sharp tip of the arrow suddenly hit a steel plate on the opposite shield car, but in just a blink of an eye, the thick steel plate immediately collapsed under the huge impact. If it dents backward, there is no accident. These steel plates will be torn through and torn like pieces of paper just like the battles in the past.

But the next moment, an unexpected scene happened.

At the moment when the shield car and the crossbow came into contact, a complex defensive formation suddenly appeared on the steel plate on the front of the shield car. Looking carefully, this defensive formation engraved on the shield car was made up of more than a hundred people. It is composed of various large and small inscription formations, the big ones are as big as rubber balls, and the small ones are only the size of fingernails. All the inscriptions and formations are organically fit together in some way to form a whole.

The defensive formation formed in this form is much harder than the normal defensive formation.

"boom!"

A shocking roar came from inside the steel plate on the front of the shield vehicle. After the huge crossbow arrow shot into the shield a few inches, it immediately encountered extremely strong resistance.

"No, just like this, it is impossible to withstand the crossbow arrows."

Seeing this scene, high on the city wall, Su Hanshan's eyes fluctuated slightly. Although he was a little surprised, he was not too surprised.

Adding an inscription formation to the steel plate is not a new move. Almost all of Datang's opponents have thought of this method.

——The cannibal shield troopers have the same defensive inscriptions and formations attached to the huge shields they hold. But in the end, this defensive method still couldn't withstand the power of the crossbow.

If An Lushan's skills stop here, then no matter how many troops he sends, in front of the Tang Dynasty's ballistae, they may only be harvested.

However, just as this thought flashed through Su Hanshan's mind, new changes immediately occurred on the battlefield.

Around the shield car that was attacked, without any warning, the defensive inscriptions and formations in the steel plates of the more than ten shield cars that were not attacked all lit up as if they were suddenly stimulated by some kind of stimulus.

Not only that, the dozen or so shield vehicles that originally seemed to be loose suddenly created some unimaginable powerful link. Wisps of light as thick as fingers burst out from the core of the steel plate formation, and the more than ten steel plates were in the center. The formations were connected into one and turned into a huge formation.

The power of the formation exploded and turned directly into an invisible energy barrier.

The defensive power of the shield car increased exponentially at this moment. The defensive power of more than ten shield cars seemed to be transferred to one shield car at this moment.

"boom!"

In the incredulous gaze of everyone, the indestructible crossbow arrow, which was like the spear of death, was directly blocked by the shield car after it penetrated a few inches.

"Buzz!"

Seeing this scene, on the steel fortress, Wang Chong, Wang Zhongsi, Albus, including Su Hanshan, all had their eyelids twitching and their expressions changed.

"United formation!"

Wang Zhongsi, the Crown Prince's youngest protector, had a condensed look on his face and slowly uttered four words.

As the God of War of the Tang Dynasty, Wang Zhongsi was well-informed and his qualifications were still higher than those of Wang Chong.

The more than ten shield vehicles seem to be scattered, but in fact they are a whole. Each shield vehicle is part of a huge formation.

And if you look closely, you will find that the tens of thousands of shield vehicles appear to be chaotic, but in fact, twelve shield vehicles form a group, forming a circular formation, and they advance and retreat in coordination with each other.

It is impossible for a single shield vehicle to block the shooting power of a crossbow vehicle, but when the number increases to twelve, the effect is completely different.

This is the joint formation!

One of the characteristics of the joint formation is that the power of the formations can be borrowed from each other, so that they can do things that a single formation cannot do. They can coordinate defense and attack with each other, and can exert huge power on the battlefield. .

However, the requirements to achieve this are extremely demanding.

The first is the top inscription master and formation master. All inscriptions and formations must be exactly the same without any deviation. The second is the training of soldiers. Since the shield vehicle is mobile, during the movement, due to the terrain, etc. Various reasons lead to formation changes at any time, making it impossible to exert the power of the large formation.

This mobile joint formation requires all soldiers to be well-trained, cooperate tacitly, and have extremely high coordination and response. This is by no means something ordinary soldiers can do, not even elite soldiers.

Therefore, collaborative formation is easier said than done, but it is actually very difficult to achieve in reality.

But who would have thought that An Lushan was so ambitious that he secretly prepared such a large army.

Boom boom boom!

In the lightning flash, bursts of steel roars came from the front line. Far more than one crossbow arrow was blocked by the combined formation of shields and vehicles. Looking around, the entire battlefield was without exception. Thousands of powerful crossbow arrows were all blocked. It was resisted by the shield car.

In the first wave of shooting, there were no casualties in Youzhou.

"boom!"

Seeing this scene, in just the blink of an eye, a burst of cheers like a landslide and tsunami suddenly broke out among the millions of coalition forces.

In this battle, all the cavalry from various countries were not afraid of the bloody battle with the Tang Dynasty/army. In fact, the most fearful thing in the hearts of everyone was the ballista troops led by Su Hanshan.

No matter the level of strength or the number of people, they all looked so small and helpless in front of the batches of ballistae.

And the denser the formation, the more terrifying the lethality of the ballistae.

In this battle, there were no punches, no blood, or even any stalemate, only one-sided massacre.

No matter how brave the warrior is, he is just a target in front of the dense crossbows. This feeling is enough to make any real warrior feel deep despair.

But now, those terrifying crossbow arrows have been blocked!

For the coalition soldiers from various countries, there is nothing more exciting than what they are seeing.

"Very good!"

"kill!"

"With these shield chariots, Datang has nothing to fear!"

At this moment, the morale of the coalition forces of all countries was greatly boosted.

"See? They are just mortal weapons, nothing to be afraid of! Since Master Taishi has sent me to assist you, I will naturally help you clear all obstacles smoothly. Why should you be afraid of a mere ballista?"

With the strong wind blowing, Elder Shengong was dressed in black and looked ahead with pride on his face.

All these shield cars are his masterpieces.

Youzhou and other countries alone cannot produce so many formation masters and inscription masters. Everything is provided by the Celestial God Organization.
