From Soldier To Emperor

　　 Naturally, there will be no scenes in the real battlefield where everyone prepares together and listens to the password volley like in the movie and TV series.

　　 That kind of scene is aimed at crossbowmen, because the crossbowmen are slow to load, so there is enough time to prepare and give orders.

　　 As for the archers, if they still use a volley to order everyone to draw a bow and set an arrow together, it is purely a brain attack...

　　 Pulling the bow without releasing the arrow is a useless consumption of the bow and arrow arm strength!

　　 What's more, the frequency of drawing and releasing arrows far exceeds that of crossbows, and the military attache has no time to keep up with the frequency of drawing the bow to issue a volley order, unless the vast majority of bows and arrows are prepared to wait for the command...

　　 On the ever-changing battlefield, isn't this just standing and letting the enemy shoot?

　　 Why did Tang Jun give up the crossbow? Isn't it because the shooting frequency of the crossbow is much lower than that of the bow and arrow?

　　 It is true that training a crossbow archer is much easier than training an archer, but Tang Jun does not lack archers at all!

　　 This is like the Englishmen who practiced longbows since childhood. Since there is no shortage of longbowmen, why do they have to equip them with slow-loading crossbows in large quantities?

　　Perhaps, the crossbow will not return to the battlefield until the frequent wars have consumed too much of the archers of the Tang army’s civilians and cannot be refilled.

　　 Back then, the Qin army was equipped with a large-scale crossbow, but it was actually a helpless choice. Because the Qin army was a soldier of the whole people, the training time was very short, and it was impossible to arm a large number of archers. It could only use the crossbow to make up for the lack of long-range power.

　　 Of course, in the Qin Dynasty, the Central Plains countries were relatively short of archers due to the perennial melee. The Qin army deployed crossbowmen on a large scale to reduce the training cost of long-range arms, but it occupied a huge advantage.

　　 It's just that the Alien Datang, both in terms of territory and population, far surpassed the Qin Dynasty in Richard's previous life, so for the time being, archers are quite sufficient.

Because of this, the archers of the Yuchi Yingzhe Army did not have the so-called salvo command. After the archery order was issued, the archers would use the maximum upward angle of shooting, and throw the arrow rain at the opposite side as fast as they could, until they reached their homes. An order came from the officer to stop shooting, or his arm was sore and unable to shoot again!

In the same way, the three crossbowmen in the field regiment on Richard’s side also operate in the same way, except that there is an extra crossbowman in the front row of Richard’s army. Although it has also been raised to a certain angle, if the elevation angle of the crossbow is too large, It's easy to shoot yourself, and the hit rate is completely off the track!

　　 Therefore, the elevation angle of the crossbowmen is of little significance...

　　 As a result, in front of the thick Yuchi Yingzhe spear shield formation, the crossbowmen on Richard's side are basically doing no more effort!

　　 However, the proportion of archers in Richard's formation is not low, but it is lower than the opposite, and it is also a layer of arrows taking off and shooting past!

　　 Looking down from the sky, the density of the arrow rain on both sides layer by layer is not low, it seems to be evenly distributed
