Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 4 Chapter 2665: Ride and shoot arrows like rain

The wind and sand, the flags are fierce, the sound of the hustle, and the Yan army, more than 1,200 archers are ready to go. They are lined up in a line on the front of more than ten miles wide. Waving a big axe in his hand, he said loudly to the people under his hands: "Brothers and warriors, today, it is time to prove our ability. Everyone says that our Dayan armor is invincible in the world, but today we We must let everyone know that Dayan has not only armored cavalry, but also you, assault cavalry!

The Turks cheered, and He Shenggai turned his head, facing the Jin army’s stopped formation, loudly said: "Use your bows and arrows to sweep the array of Jin people, as before, disrupt Their formation, once the enemy is in chaos, listen to my orders and enter the enemy formation. Their armor and equipment are all yours!"

A cavalry captain was surprised: "General, don't you let us assault?"

He Shenggai laughed: "The Han people have a saying, saying that the generals are outside, and the military orders are not. The national division and the generals of Gongsun do not believe that we can disrupt the formation of the Jin army, so we must be careful not to burst into battle, but if it is The Jin army breaks up for us. When will we not chase and kill the maimed enemy? Cavalry naturally restrains the infantry, but the Jin army’s carts and horses are placed on the two wings. The front forward is safe to defend, how can it be blocked? I ride? Don’t think too much, shoot three rounds first, and then follow my orders! Get on it!"

Before the Jin army, Liu Jingxuan's expression was calm. By his side, Liu Fan and Liu Cui also stood on horseback. Liu Jingxuan smiled and looked at the two brothers of Liu Yi: "Old wolf (Liu Fan's nickname), Fox (Liu Fan) Cui's nickname), this time you have a chance to do meritorious service. Brother Ji Nu has given us the front line, which is to give us a chance to kill Xianbei, and to stay in the history."

Liu Fan smiled slightly: "It's a pity that my elder brother didn't come from the back this time, otherwise, he would definitely admire the big formation under the slave boy's cloth this time."

Liu Cui nodded: "In the past few years, we have carefully studied various methods of restraining cavalry, just for this day. This time we don’t have to worry about the problem of the two wings. The enemy assault cavalry is also attacking from the front. We only need to use us. The style of play can be wiped out!"

A cold light flashed in Liu Jingxuan's eyes: "According to the original plan, the enemy's front-line cavalry should be four to five thousand. The first wave of more than one thousand should be here to test, please say hello!"

Pi Lu Daoxiu's exclamation sounded on the side: "Here, they are here!"

The earth was trembling slightly, smoke and dust gradually rose, and the whistle sounded into one. Under Linqu city, in the Yan army formation, the drums shook the sky, more than a thousand riders began to charge towards the opposite Jin army front, passing by The horses were walking, trotting, and accelerating for about two miles. The speed of the horses was increased to the maximum. A piece of black cavalry, wrapped in dust, like a row of black dragons, rushing straight into the Jin army array, the momentum is quite amazing, the distance between the two sides is rapidly Approaching, this can be confirmed from the roar of the rangefinders in the front line of the Jin army: "The enemy's distance, one thousand steps! The enemy's distance, five hundred steps! The enemy's distance, three hundred steps!"

When one of the Jin Army’s rangefinders roared out "the enemy’s distance, one hundred paces", Hu Qi, who had been attacking the Jin Army like a long line, suddenly changed from a forward attack to a side sweep. They turned their horses’ heads towards them. Running sideways and forward, starting from the Pegasus flag in the middle, the left and right wings rotate to the two sides, and while turning, turn sideways, pull open the long bow, and send bursts of arrows toward the formation of the Jin army.

When the Yan army rushed forward, there was already a shield wall placed in front of the forward of the Jin army. A large shield about two meters high was supported by a wooden frame and stood in front of the formation. It was painted with a beast with teeth and claws. , Or the evil spirit with the blue-faced fangs, was shot beyond recognition. The raindrops of bows and arrows cut through the sky, filled with these shields, and beat the erect wooden shields crookedly and tremblingly.

He Shenggai was standing just one mile away. In front of him, more than a thousand cavalrymen had already carried out the first round of burst shooting. Teams, taking turns to advance, rained arrows, while the cavalry was galloping sideways. At the same time as the shooting, it also ran diagonally, and ran from less than fifty steps in front of the Jin army. The Jin army soldiers behind the shields, the armor of their whole body, and even the face masks they were wearing, were also in full view. .

He Shenggai laughed: "You see, warriors, these Wu Yue cowards, they only hide behind their shields and tremble, and they dare not even come out to shoot or engage with our army. Don’t stop, let’s leave the Kangju circle. , Shoot it back and forth for me, we have bows and arrows!"

After a blast of drum horns, the Yan army's sudden ride has become two circles with a circumference of more than two miles. The war horse and the war horse kept a distance of four to five meters back and forth, swimming in front of the Jin army, UU Reading the book www.uukanshu.com one after another, the cavalry after the front gallop, passed the front of the Jin army, and then ran to the rear of the Jin army, and then through this circle, continue to rush to the front, the Jin army’s 100 steps in front of the formation Inside, the smoke and dust barriers the sky, if you look from the shield, you can only see the dust and fog, bows and arrows are constantly coming, but you don't know how many enemy troops are.

On the handsome platform, Wang Miaoyin murmured: "Are these the gallops of the turbulence? It's so cyclical, without seeing the enemy's strength, it's really amazing."

Yu Yue had already stood up in a hurry, walking back and forth, he kept muttering words: "Fight back, shoot them to death, Liu Jingxuan, what are you waiting for?!"

Liu Yu calmly said: "Yu joins the army, please stay calm, our former army generals, now General Liu Fan and General Liu Cui of the Yanzhou Army are in command. They are Xile’s subordinates for many years and have experienced hundreds of battles. Now that there is no counterattack, they naturally have their considerations."

Yu Yue gritted his teeth and pointed to the front: "Marshal, you see, the enemy cavalry is now getting closer and closer. They were a hundred paces away at first, and now their galloping circle formation is already within reach of our army. Fifty steps, full of smoke and dust, we can see clearly here, but the soldiers behind the shield, I am afraid that they do not see clearly, and then passively be beaten like this, only defending but not attacking, for fear that the enemy will forcefully attack our army. Array."

Liu Yu smiled slightly and looked at Hu Fan who was standing aside: "Beard, you said, when our soldiers are fighting, how do we judge the strength and distance of the enemy when we don't see the enemy?"

Hu Fan said solemnly: "Where the former army is right, in front of the shield army, the strength and number of the enemy's bows and arrows hitting my shield can tell how many enemies there are and how far they are from me."

Liu Yu looked at Yu Yue who had suddenly realized it, and said calmly: "Yu joins the army, soon, you will see our army's counterattack!"
