Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

After Tian Yu saw Chen Dao's response, he nodded slightly. The soldiers under Chen Dao were mainly strong crossbowmen. Compared with bows and arrows, crossbow shooting was more accurate and could cause greater damage to the charging cavalry.

Damage, of course, what such an army fears most is the approaching enemy army.

Whether they are archers or crossbowmen, what they fear most is close combat. Only by keeping a certain distance can they exert greater power. In Tian Yu's view, the training of crossbowmen is simpler, and archers are more capable.

Test the soldiers' ability.

But from the crossbowmen under Chen Dao, he felt something different, that is, an momentum that ordinary armies did not have. If he hadn't known that the soldiers under Chen Dao had been trained recently, no one would have thought that this was a

An army that has just experienced the battlefield.

"Let go!" Chen Dao drew out the sword from his waist and shouted.

Following Chen Dao's order, the shield soldiers at the front hurriedly squatted down, and the more than 300 soldiers responsible for the first round of shooting released the crossbow arrows in their hands.

The war horses galloped. At such a distance, the lethality of the crossbow arrows was huge. Before the cavalry on the war horses had time to release the arrows in their hands, they were greeted by the crossbow arrows. They did not expect the crossbow arrows to have such a range. In their opinion,

Zhili, the range of a crossbow is probably within a hundred steps, and will not exceed that of a bow.

Chen Dao had concealed something before. After all, a crossbow with a range of 110 steps was too terrifying. This kind of powerful crossbow was imitated from Qin Nu. If the production method of Qin Nu was obtained, wouldn't it be more powerful?

Long range.

The range of one hundred and ten is also the source of Chen Dao's confidence. As long as he can continuously shoot crossbows beyond the range of the cavalry, it will make it difficult for the enemy cavalry to approach and cause harm to his own side.

After the first round of soldiers shot the crossbow arrows in their hands, they immediately squatted down and loaded the crossbow arrows with deft hands and feet. The second round of crossbow soldiers released the crossbow arrows in their hands.

It was also the first time that Gongsun Yu saw such an army. It was composed of crossbowmen. Its power was indeed beyond the comparison of ordinary armies. What shocked him most was the range of the crossbows. With the stirrups, Gongsun Yu could feel the combat effectiveness of his cavalry.

However, under the continuous crossbows, many Liaodong cavalry fell off their horses, and a hundred steps in front of Chen Dao's troops, there was a vacuum zone, making it difficult for the cavalry to approach.

Even though the Liaodong cavalry have superb riding skills, they are still somewhat inadequate in the face of crossbow arrows. Besides, even if the cavalry can withstand crossbow arrows, can they still help their horses withstand crossbow arrows? Once the cavalry loses their horses, there is not much difference from death.

At this time, the soldiers under Chen Dao were like murderers harvesting the lives of cavalry on the battlefield. Crossbows were everywhere and the cavalry fell off their horses.

Gongsun Yu waved the long sword in his hand and led hundreds of cavalry to attack. He wanted to tell Chen Dao with facts that no matter how well-equipped the soldiers under his command were, they were still infantry. On such a battlefield, the cavalry was the real king.

.

Gongsun Yu was skilled with bow and horse. Although several crossbow arrows were aimed at him, he shot them down easily. Even within a hundred paces, the cavalry following Gongsun Yu did not dare to change their weapons to bows and arrows.

Chen Dao's eyes narrowed slightly and he whispered to Zhao Wu.

Gongsun Yu also discovered the pattern of firing crossbow arrows. From the constant ups and downs of Chen Zhi's soldiers, he could tell whether the opponent would shoot life-threatening arrows. If you avoid them carefully, you may not be able to get close to the crossbow soldiers.

However, this time, Gongsun Yu opened his eyes wide. Dozens of crossbow arrows came in his direction. Although he waved the long knife in his hand vigorously, the dense crossbow arrows hit the horse under him, causing the horse to suffer pain.

Jumping high, in panic, Gongsun Yu jumped up from his horse, jumped onto the horse of a cavalryman beside him, and slapped the horse hard with the back of his sword. At this time, he was only fifty meters away from Chen Dao's troops.

distance of steps.

The speed of the war horses was very fast. After two rounds of crossbow arrows, they approached Chen Dao's headquarters, while the Liaodong cavalry in front of Gongsun Yu was dying.

"Change the formation!" Chen Dao gave the order with a calm expression.

The shield soldiers who were originally squatting on the ground stood up one after another and erected the huge shields in their hands. Under the shining of their eyes, the shields reflected a little light. Different from the shields in the hands of ordinary soldiers, these shields were made of iron and could withstand huge

The impact force is also an important means for Chen Dao to resist the cavalry.

The trapped camp was able to withstand the charge of the cavalry with their shields, and Chen Dao believed that the soldiers under his command could do the same.

The soldiers under Chen Dao changed their formations, which greatly reduced the pressure on the cavalry under Gongsun Yu. He waved his weapons and attacked them. The charge just now caused them to lose a hundred people, which was a huge loss for the cavalry.

shame.

There is no need to give orders. When the enemy cavalry rushed up, the spearmen behind the shield struggled to thrust the spears in their hands forward. In the past battles, they were more useless, so much so that they talked about the battle in Paoze.

I felt a little ashamed.

The two shield soldiers resisted the impact of the war horses with red faces. Once the war horses charged, the power was huge. Several shield soldiers could not resist and were directly knocked away, making the formation a little chaotic. This gap also gave

When the Liaodong cavalry had an opportunity, they rushed forward without waiting for the crossbowmen in the camp to show off their power.

Chen Dao observed the battlefield carefully. He wanted to find the deficiencies from real battles. Only by controlling the deficiencies can he become a truly elite force. The shield soldiers were knocked away. Chen Dao also frowned slightly. He selected

Shield soldiers are all the stronger soldiers in the army.

After the initial panic, the shield soldiers, crossbows, and spearmen gradually became more closely coordinated.

Seeing such a situation, Chen Dao's brows gradually relaxed. This was also the first time that his crossbowmen had such close contact with the cavalry. Such a battle was a valuable experience for the crossbowmen. It was the first time that the crossbowmen had such close contact with the cavalry.

If they are panicked, the crossbowmen can remain calm the next time they face the same situation, and can respond effectively even if the cavalry approaches.

"Fight for the glory of the Youzhou Army!" Chen Dao shouted.

Hearing this, the soldiers on the field suddenly felt their blood boiling. They were the Youzhou Army, the invincible Youzhou Army. From the first day they joined the army, they had been instilled with this belief. Now this belief will be defeated in the cruel battle.

Achieved on the battlefield, there is no room for retreat.

The casualties of more than a hundred crossbowmen also made the remaining crossbowmen angry with the enemy. They wanted to use the blood of the enemy to avenge the dead soldiers. Paoze's blood could not be shed in vain.

Gongsun Yu already had more than ten crossbowmen alive, and with a long sword in his hand, Gongsun Yu was an invincible general. However, he was surprised to find that the enemy did not panic because their formation was slightly scattered, but instead burst out with more attacks.

For strong combat effectiveness.
