Chapter 866 Many Special Arms
Huangfu Chaobo's words made everyone exclaim. A deputy general behind Wang Ling even blurted out: "All ten arrows were fired in five breaths?"
Huangfu Chaobo turned his head and saw a young general who looked like a lieutenant. He bowed and said, "General, it is true."
He turned his head and said to Wang Ling, "If you don't believe it, you can randomly pick a few people from the thousand crossbowmen and go to the parade ground behind to try it out."
Wang Ling nodded and pointed casually, saying, "Just these ten soldiers."
Wang Ling's personal guard led the ten soldiers to the parade ground behind the camp to make preparations. Wang Ling continued to go to the next square. Before he got close, Wang Ling took a quick look and was sure that this square was indeed a thousand elite soldiers who were not weaker than the two thousand Iron Eagle Warriors under his command. Whether it was from the temperament of the soldiers or the weapons and equipment they used, it could be seen that they were indeed elite Iron Eagle Warriors.
After looking at the soldiers in the three square formations, Wang Ling looked at the guards around the generals. They were indeed elite. At this time, Wang Ling was secretly delighted. He thought that he would take over tens of thousands of miscellaneous soldiers, but he didn't expect that there would be such elite soldiers among them. They were indeed elite soldiers who could fight ten to one.
"Huangfu Junhou, how many elite soldiers like this are there in the 60,000 alien army?"
Huangfu Chaobo hesitated for a moment and answered carefully: "Although the rest of the soldiers are not as elite as Wei Jiang's soldiers, there are still thousands of elite soldiers. However, compared with Wei Jiang's 4,000 soldiers, they are still slightly inferior. However, they are far from being comparable to ordinary soldiers."
After speaking, Huangfu Chaobo said in his heart: These elite soldiers of his are the top soldiers in the game. Among the current players, there should be only a few people who have such elite soldiers. Like Chen Dao's Baihao soldiers under Zongheng Tianxia and Xu Zhu's Tiger Guards under Cao Charlie.
Thinking of this, Huangfu Chaobo suddenly had an idea. That's not right. Zhang He is one of his subordinates. It is said that he can train halberd warriors, which should also be a special type of soldiers. Why haven't I heard him say that? No, I must ask what's going on when I return to the game.
"Okay, after seeing the crossbowmen of the military marquis, I will review the other soldiers. Let's go..." As he said that, Wang Ling squeezed his horse's belly and rode towards the parade ground behind.
Soon, the group arrived at the small parade ground at the back of the camp, where dozens of human-shaped wooden targets had been set up, with ten in each row, ranging from sixty to one hundred steps away. Ten Yuanrong crossbowmen were lined up there, just waiting for Wang Ling and his group to arrive.
Seeing Wang Ling coming, the personal guard general hurriedly stepped forward to ask if he should start immediately.
Wang Ling nodded at him, and the general clasped his fists and accepted the order, then quickly returned to the crossbowmen. With his order, ten crossbowmen knelt on one knee, holding the crossbow machine horizontally, ready to go.
"Fire!"
"Knock, knock, knock..." With ten crisp sounds, ten crossbowmen shot all ten crossbow arrows in the wooden box of the crossbow at the target sixty steps away in less than five breaths. All of them hit the center of the target, and none of them missed the target.
The instantaneous change made Wang Ling and his generals all stunned. This family actually had such a sharp crossbow, which could shoot ten arrows in five breaths, no less than the most elite archers. Wang Ling immediately asked people to bring all ten targets, and then carefully observed the ten crossbow arrows on the targets. He saw that all ten crossbow arrows hit the center of the target, and the strong force made all the crossbow arrows penetrate the targets. The arrows penetrated the targets for two palms. You should know that these targets are two fingers thick. If they were ordinary iron armor, they would definitely die at a distance of sixty steps.
The next step is seventy steps, eighty steps, ninety steps, and one hundred steps. Although the attack strength of the crossbow arrows decreases with the increase of distance, it can still penetrate the targets at a distance of one hundred steps.
Wang Ling had people put up a leather armor and an iron armor a hundred steps away, and asked the crossbowmen to shoot again. As a result, although the iron armor was hit by arrows and failed to penetrate the armor, the leather armor still penetrated smoothly; it was not until the distance of eighty steps that it effectively killed the iron armor.
Such a result surprised Wang Ling and his generals. Such a sharp weapon in the army made everyone feel like a tiger with wings.
Wang Ling even praised it loudly, saying that he would present it to the king and fight for a title for Huangfu Chaobo. Then he took the crossbow and prepared to return to Guanglang City, and Zongheng Tianxia next to him was so anxious that he winked at Huangfu Chaobo repeatedly.
Huangfu Chaobo saw this and hurriedly said: "General, there are several troops among the aliens' troops that you can see. They are all good elite troops."
Wang Ling was stunned, thought about it, and decided to take a look at the situation of the remaining troops.
Then the group came to several smaller camps next to Huangfu Chaobo's camp. The first camp was the barracks of Zongheng Tianxia. This time, Zongheng Tianxia actually let Chen Dao lead a thousand white-waste soldiers. The performance of the white-waste soldiers surprised Wang Ling. It was indeed similar to Huangfu Chaobo's troops and horses, and they were well-deserved elites.
Although the next few troops were good, Huangfu Chaobo was also surprised. He didn't expect that in addition to the special troops he knew, there were also Shanyue soldiers under Yan Xing, Yan Han's subordinate, Wei Wuzu under Jianling, Wei Yan's subordinate, Xiliang Iron Cavalry under Wu Yu, and the long halberd soldiers under Taishi Ci, the domineering royal family. Although they were not special troops, they were also very powerful long halberd soldiers.
As for the soldiers of other people, although they were not as good as the soldiers of the previous people, they were indeed elite soldiers selected, and they did not disappoint Wang Ling.
As for the other soldiers, they were basically ordinary soldiers, and Wang Ling did not pay much attention to them.
Afterwards, Wang Ling led a group of generals back to his tent. After dismissing the other generals, he left Huangfu Chaobo alone. Wang Ling said, "The army under the military marquis surprised me. They are indeed elite soldiers who have fought many battles. I wonder if the military marquis has any military affairs to report to me?"
Huangfu Chaobo glanced at the guards around him very obscurely, and then said, "Dian Wei, you retreat outside the tent first."
Seeing this, Wang Ling also reacted. Although he didn't know what military information Huangfu Chaobo had to report, he still waved to his personal guards. Seeing this, the personal guards immediately led the personal guards in the tent out of the tent, and then guarded outside the tent, not allowing anyone to approach within twenty steps of the tent.
After everyone left, only Wang Ling and Huangfu Chaobo were left in the tent. Huangfu Chaobo whispered to Wang Ling, "I hope to meet Wu'an Jun! Please report to him on my behalf!" (Bai Qi was supposed to be named Wu'an Jun after the Battle of Changping, but because he didn't know his previous title, he simply called him Wu'an Jun. The titles of Wang Ling, Wang He, etc. were all their last titles.)
