Chapter 909

Just as the cavalry of both sides left the infantry battlefield, the heavy infantry and Huang Wudi's army were less than 100 steps away. To Li Gui's surprise, his army had entered the range of each other's crossbows, but the expected rain of arrows did not come. Li Gui's heart moved, knowing that the other side was waiting for his army to get closer before attacking.

Li Gui can't help sneering to himself. He has more than 7000 heavy infantry, and his defense is extremely high. Does the general of the opposite coalition really think that the attack of ordinary arrows can break through his defense and kill the army? Seven thousand heavy infantry were killed by him. There will be more than six thousand by then. Once these six thousand heavy infantry are killed in front of the enemy's army, they will never be able to stop them.

Eighty steps, the archer didn't respond.

Sixty steps, still no launch.

The other side's calmness made Li Gui's heart beat a little bit. Is there any other way for the other side to aim at his heavy infantry? At this time, Li Gui had no time to be polyphasic. He just ordered the army to move on.

Fifty steps.

"Crossbow, ten shots in a row, fire!"

With Huang Wudi's order, the 4000 yuan army crossbow soldiers began to buckle their hanging knives to the heavy infantry of Yuan Shu army fifty paces away.

"Buzz, buzz!"

Four thousand crossbows and arrows, like locusts, went straight at Yuan Shu's army.

Hearing the firing order from the opposite side, Li Gui was also relieved. The other side had already started to fire the crossbow. His army only needed to stop him for a few rounds. Thinking of this, he yelled: "defend the arrow!"

In fact, there was no need for him to give orders. All the soldiers who heard the order of shooting crossbows from the opposite side were ready to defend their arrows. However, they were all dressed in heavy armor, and the first row of soldiers also held shields, so they didn't feel any pressure. The reason why they used to defend with shields was just because they were used to it.

But soon yuan Shujun soldiers found that their ideas were wrong.

"Dududududui"

As soon as we were ready, the catapults and arrows were already on the shield. The huge impact of the catapult made the front row taxi soldiers beat. Fortunately, the heavy infantry formation was tight, and the soldiers were close together, so that the front row taxi soldiers did not fall down directly.

But each heavy infantry's shield was hit by several crossbows and arrows. You should know that the effective killing distance of Yuanrong crossbows and arrows is 100 steps, but now they are launched at a distance of 50 steps. You can imagine how powerful they are. Several crossbows and arrows hit the same shield at the same time, and the position is completely different, which leads to the unbalanced force. Although many heavy infantry do not fall down, their strong strength has made them unable to control the shield well.

However, just as the heavy infantry wanted to stand firm again and control their shields, the second round of crossbows and arrows came again. This time, nearly 300 heavy infantry in the front row could not hold on. At this time, the heavy infantry's tight defense was finally broken, and some heavy infantry even could not hold their own shields and fell directly to the ground.

Then, the third round of the crossbow came again, so this time, nearly 200 heavy infantry were shot by the crossbow and fell.

Soon, the fourth round, the fifth round came.

Yuan Shujun's heavy infantry suffered more and more casualties. Although the heavy infantry didn't panic because of the strict training at ordinary times, a soldier in front fell down, and his companions immediately came forward to fill his vacancy, but the speed of the crossbow was too fast, and with the distance getting closer, the heavy infantry's armor was more difficult to resist the attack of the crossbow.

With the end of the ten rounds of crossbows and arrows, the heavy infantry had approached the distance of 20 steps in front of the army of the yellow butterfly dance department. However, the short distance of 30 steps made the heavy infantry lose more than 2000 people. Among them, more than 1500 people were killed on the spot, and more than 1000 people were injured and fell to the ground.

Li Gui was ready to sacrifice a thousand talents. He didn't expect that Anton's crossbow was so powerful that he lost 30% of his troops.

But at this time, Li Gui couldn't hold back. Li Gui, who was in the middle of the heavy infantry, cried out: "go on, go on! Although the enemy's crossbow is powerful, they have nothing to do if they only need to approach the enemy's infantry! "

The huge casualties also aroused the blood of the heavy infantry. The surviving soldiers in the front row yelled: "kill! Kill!! Kill

Soon the cry of killing rang out in the whole heavy infantry Square: "kill! Kill!! Kill

After firing a box of crossbows, Yuanrong crossbow soldiers have to reload their arrows. If it's normal defense, Huang wudie will not make such arrangements. She will certainly let crossbow soldiers attack in turn to ensure the continuity of firepower. But today's situation is different. She must kill the heavy infantry as much as possible before fighting with the heavy infantry, otherwise her current combat battalion can't support the cavalry The soldiers returned.

Sure enough, after ten rounds of crossbows and arrows, the number of heavy infantry dropped to more than 4000, but it was too late for the crossbow soldiers to carry out another round of shooting. Huang wudie immediately ordered: "Yuanrong crossbow soldiers retreat 50 steps, block the shooting, sword and shield soldiers line up, we just need to hold the cavalry to return, we will win, fight to death! Kill"Kill

Today's Huben camp was reorganized after Huang Zhong led the troops to Yuzhou. The old soldiers and the new soldiers fought half of each other. After entering Huainan, after several battles, there are now only more than 4000 people. The old soldiers did not lose much. There were only more than one hundred of them. On the contrary, there were 2500 new soldiers who joined the army and lost nearly a thousand. More than 4000 soldiers of Huben camp were divided into four columns by Huang wudie. The first two columns were the old soldiers before the reorganization, and the latter were the old and new mixed.

"Boom..."

Twenty steps away, and soon the two armies became a regiment. In the face of the impact of Yuan Shu's heavy infantry, two lines of veteran soldiers in Huben battalion tried their best to block it, but Huben battalion lost two or three hundred people, and Yuan Shu's army lost almost the same.

The two armies soon scuffled into a regiment, and Huang Wudi rode on his horse, flying with a long sword. Yuan Shujun's soldiers did not have her combined enemy. Her force value is as high as 88, and her strength ranks in the top ten in Huangfu Chaobo's army. Even her elder brother Huang Xu is three points lower than her. It's only because she is a female general that Huangfu Chaobo always puts her in the position of guard general, and seldom has the chance to fight with the army.

In fact, both Huang Wudi and Zhao Yu are very good generals. The four dimensions are quite balanced. They are comparable to Tian Yu and Huang Xu, but slightly inferior to Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and Zhang Ying. So this time, after Huang Zhong was transferred to Yuzhou, Huangfu Chaobo appointed Huang Wudi as the commander of Huben camp.
