Route, this is a real rout.

Originally, under the struggling efforts of Li Dian and others, they were able to muster up the courage to face the infantry under Yuan Tan's heavy cavalry and raise their spears to counterattack.

In the face of Zhuge Repeater's terrifying human head harvesting speed, all of them were demoralized in an instant!

They didn't know that the crossbow bolts that Zhuge Repeater could send out at one time were limited.

I only saw that in the crossbow machine, rows and rows of crossbow arrows continued to shoot out one after another.

Each time it was fired, one of its companions fell to the ground screaming, even though they weren't hit.

But the psychological pressure brought to them by the miserable howls of his companions was still extremely huge!

Yu Ban killed several soldiers who tried to flee to the rear camp one after another, and when he saw that he still couldn't stop the deserters from scattering, he could only sigh with hatred!

His Qingzhou soldiers, because they wanted to protect Cao Cao, were all concentrated in the rear camp.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so passive!

Li Dianlejin's face didn't look good.

The wave of Zhuge Lian's crossbow salvo knocked them all out.

Sun Li was even more miserable, he was directly shot in his right arm by a stray arrow, if he wasn't wearing soft armor, it is estimated that his right arm would be directly wasted.

Yuan Tan stood on the snowy black horse, and he did not surprise him with anything in front of him.

The Zhuge Repeater can achieve this effect, on the one hand, the power of the Zhuge Repeater itself is quite good.

Unlike arrows, crossbow bolts have much more stable firing power.

An archer, no matter how good his arm strength is, after shooting ten arrows in a row, the power of the eleventh arrow is far lower than the power of the first arrow.

However, the crossbow bolts fired by the crossbow machine can ensure that each arrow can cause enough damage to the enemy.

However, if you want to inflict on the morale of the enemy, just a volley will directly destroy the opponent like today.

But it's not easy.

After all, there is another important factor in this lethal effect, that is, the fear of the soldiers of the Cao army's battalion and the cavalry under their command.

Strictly speaking, it is still Yuan Tan's own name, which has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in Cao Ying.

Although it has not yet arrived, Yuan Tan is in the hearts of the Huns, and he can be called the image of the demon king Shura.

But in the minds of the generals of the Cao army, Yuan Tan has become a shadow that weighs on the hearts of all of them, so heavy that it cannot be dispelled at all.

Pressing the halberd slightly, behind Yuan Tan, the two thousand heavy riders immediately understood.

Put down the Zhuge crossbow and replace it with a spear and a big knife, and rushed towards the scattered Cao army infantry!

Seeing this, Sun Li's eyes suddenly lit up, and he grabbed a Cao soldier who was about to flee behind, and shouted,

"Their crossbow machine is no longer useful, now, go back to defense!"

After speaking, Sun Li gritted his teeth, forcibly endured the discomfort in his right arm, picked up the big knife in his hand, and opened the way first.

led the soldiers under his command to rush forward against the offensive of Yuan Tan's cavalry!

With Sun Li taking the lead, the three generals of Yu Banle and Li Dian finally reacted and commanded their personal guards one by one.

Gather the fleeing infantry back, and under their respective leadership, push back towards the heavy cavalry under Yuan Tan's command!

Yuan Tan shook his head and smiled coldly, not caring about the stubborn resistance of the four generals.

The cavalry, especially the heavy cavalry, could have been stopped with such ease.

Why did he bother so much to match the armor and horse equipment to his personal guards.

also deliberately made his headquarters 20,000 cavalry. What about 10,000 to maintain the training of heavy cavalry?

In fact, even Zhao Yun felt a little puzzled about Yuan Tan's decision.

In Zhao Yun's view, the biggest advantage of cavalry should lie in his mobility.

As a brave general who came out of Bai Ma Yi, Zhao Yun was very proud of Bai Ma Yi's heroic posture of chasing the Huns from the time of a thousand horses.

It can be said that it is impressive.

Therefore, when training Yuan Jiayicong, he was even more attentive, and he wanted to reproduce the old days, so that the grassland aliens did not dare to have the slightest idea of herding horses in the south.

As for Jiang Qi and Gao Lan, although the two of them did not have the same unique experience as Zhao Yun.

But they are all battlefield generals in the true sense of the word, and they have seen a lot of ways for cavalry to charge into battle and harass.

In the eyes of the two, or in the eyes of many famous generals in the entire Three Kingdoms, the role of cavalry is to detour, attack, and pursue.

As well as rushing out at critical moments, with an unbeatable attitude, the tactics of making a final decision.

But in the end, this final word often caused huge casualties to the cavalry.

The reason is very simple, the heavy cavalry of this era, in Yuan Tan's opinion, is too rough.

The princes seldom put their minds on the heavy cavalry.

On the one hand, because the cost is too high, a heavy cavalry must not only wear heavy armor, but also horses.

Moreover, whether it is a person or a horse, it must be the best of the best, and it must be eliminated again and again.

to be able to stand out.

Combined, the cost of training one heavy cavalry is enough to train three or four light cavalry.

Moreover, the maintenance cost of heavy cavalry is much higher than that of light cavalry.

It is precisely because of this that even the tiger and leopard ride is specially created according to the heavy cavalry template.

To put it bluntly, in fact, it is only an extra layer of armor that can play part of the defense power than the light cavalry.

In Yuan Tan's impression, the battlefield chariots on the real cold weapon battlefield are completely incomparable.

Therefore, when the composite bow was born, the light cavalry, which could only be used for roundabout attacks, already had the qualifications to become the main force.

And the loss will be greatly reduced compared to before.

After all, Yuan Jiayi, who was equipped with a compound bow, could completely use kite tactics to defeat all the enemies who tried to challenge them in vain.

In this case, Yuan Tan also stubbornly trained his heavy cavalry, which made Jiang Qi look up, and he was puzzled from the bottom of his heart.

It's just that the two of them didn't say it.

However, after today, their thoughts, including the entire Cao army generals, will be changed in their views on the heavy cavalry.

"Collapse!" a

soldier gritted his teeth and stabbed the spear in his hand into the leg of the heavy cavalry that was rushing towards him!

However, a crisp cracking sound came!

It was not the opponent's horse leg that cracked, but the spear made of fine iron in his hand!

"How can you fight this?!"

The soldier shouted in despair, and there was even a hint of crying in his voice!

"Damn!"

Sun Li, who also saw the scene that made people completely unbelievable, shouted violently, and the whole person flew up in the air, and the big knife drew an arc in the air and slashed!

"Brush!" Yuan

Tan's personal guard, who was covered in a dark and heavy armor and couldn't see his appearance clearly, silently raised the spear in his hand, and several spears stabbed out together!
