Sure enough, the rows of giant arrows falling from the sky were intercepted by the gun screens waved by the generals.
However, what everyone did not expect was that the arrows all exploded the moment they were intercepted.
Groups of fireballs exploded on the heads of the Wolf Cavalry Regiment.
The powerful impact, although it could not penetrate the mountain phantom and directly affect the heads of the cavalry, shook the mountain phantom into cracks. trace.
"These heavy crossbows are special and have such powerful destructive power."
Ye Li was shocked and spoke.
As the strongest army in the Tang Dynasty, the Xuanwu Army not only had strong soldiers, but also the equipment was built with countless financial resources.
For example, the crossbow quivers they are using now are high-end gadgets that are different from ordinary heavy crossbows.
They are expensive and difficult to cast and cannot be produced in large quantities.
This kind of thing can release ten giant arrows at a time, and each barrel is equivalent to ten heavy crossbows.
It is very convenient to carry during mobile combat.
In addition, giant arrows are also special items, possessing the power of explosion.
When the arrows explode together, the force collision caused is very fierce.
It is precisely because of such power that the Xuanwu Army was able to shatter the mountain phantom of the entire cavalry regiment with just a hundred heavy crossbow arrows.
The moment the shadow of the cavalry regiment shattered on the mountain, they had already rushed in front of the Xuanwu Army.
Facing the dark spears, Yin Lie gave an order.
When the charge was about to be completed, the cavalry regiment suddenly made an emergency stop and all stopped.
Come down.
With the momentum of the pause, all the soldiers thrust their spears forward suddenly.
Jin Xing's strength gathered together and plunged into the intercepting array ahead.
The powerful golden spirit energy was intercepted by the opponent's shield array, but it did not cause much damage.
Only a few soldiers of the Xuanwu Army suffered minor injuries.
However, because the Running Wolf Cavalry Regiment did not rush in front of the Xuanwu Army, they were unable to counterattack.
They could only watch the Running Wolf Cavalry Regiment jump back twice in a row and break away from the battle circle.
Ye Li frowned and looked at the battlefield.
He knew that the reason why the Wolf Cavalry Regiment chose to retreat was because of the cracks in the mountain shadow.
The phantom of the mountain covered with cracks already means that it is about to be broken.
If the cavalry regiment had continued to collide with the Xuanwu Army's formation just now, the phantom of the mountains condensed with earthly aura on their bodies would have been completely shattered.
After the mountain phantom is broken, it means that the offensive and defensive capabilities of the Running Wolf Cavalry Regiment will be greatly reduced.
Without the protection of the earth element aura, the Running Wolf Cavalry Regiment can only fight with the Xuanwu Army.
Although with the help of Benlang, they are very powerful even in a single challenge, but they will inevitably suffer casualties.
This is something Yin Lie doesn't want to see.
He knows how much it costs to train a qualified soldier of the Wolf Cavalry Regiment.
Ye Li only has a total of three thousand cavalry.
If one person is lost, one person will be lost, and it will be difficult to replenish them in a short time.
After all, controlling the running wolf to keep up with the team's movements is not something that can be completed in two or three days.
Yin Lie chose to end the charge at the last moment.
Only these running wolves could do this.
Horses would not be able to stop suddenly while running at extremely high speeds.
The two sides separated from the battle once again distanced themselves and faced each other.
In the second round of collision, there was still no real winner.
The combat effectiveness of these Xuanwu troops was stronger than Ye Li had imagined.
He always thought that his Running Wolf Cavalry Regiment had the strength to crush all armies, but now it seems that even if they are stronger than the Xuanwu Army, they are only very limited.
It can only be said that the Wolf Cavalry Regiment also has greater mobility and long-distance attack capabilities, which the Xuanwu Army does not possess, but in a frontal fight, they really cannot take advantage of it.
In particular, the Xuanwu Army took out their secret treasure crossbow quiver.

This weapon of war has a very powerful ability to break defenses.
Although the cavalry regiment's defense was strong, it was almost broken by them.
This was the result of the masters actively intercepting the arrows overhead under Yin Lie's command.
If Yin Lie was a little careless and believed that the shadow of the mountain could block the attack of the giant arrow, then their defense just now would have been broken.
Now the battle has become a bit troublesome.
If they fight head-on, the cavalry regiment will definitely face the bombardment of heavy crossbows.
Before the opponent's arrows are exhausted, it is basically impossible for them to defeat the enemy without injury.
If you keep charging and dodging, the phantom of earth element spiritual energy will continue to consume the soldiers' spiritual energy, and this kind of battle cannot be sustained for a long time.
The current situation is a complete test for the cavalry regiment.
The Xuanwu Army is indeed experienced.
After dismounting, it no longer competes with the cavalry regiment for mobility.
Instead, it chooses a fortress-like style of play, standing still and waiting for the cavalry. group attack.
Ye Li looked at the battle situation and said to Huo Xing: "As expected of the Xuanwu Army, their combat effectiveness is indeed extremely powerful.
There is no way an ordinary army can be their opponent.
But in the current battle, we actually don't need to decide the winner at all, because our purpose is just to rescue. " Huo Xing nodded when he heard this and said: "I also think we should evacuate.
Every soldier in the cavalry regiment is extremely precious.
This Xuanwu Army only has half of the manpower.
There is another Xuanwu Army with a total of ten thousand people.
We choose to fight hard, which is really not a good way.”
"It is still difficult to win without injury now.
After the training of the Flying Wing Regiment is completed, the combat effectiveness of the Cavalry Regiment can be truly brought into play.
By then, the two will be merged together to defeat the Xuanwu Army, and the match will not be a problem."
Ye Li looked at the Xuanwu Army and said.
Yin Lie went back and forth for several rounds and found that he could not avoid the crossbow attack and directly attacked the opponent's military formation.
He was suddenly a little angry.
Just when he was about to risk a frontal attack, Ye Li's voice suddenly appeared in his ears.
"Yin Lie, let's retreat.
The task of preventing the Xuanwu Army from killing the reinforcements has been completed.
Now is not the time to fight them head-on.
When the training of our flying wing group is completed, the Xuanwu Army will be absolutely unable to resist it. " Ye Li, Huo Xing and others had already rode the Wind Lin Beast to Yin Lie's side.
When Yin Lie heard Ye Li's words, he could only suppress the unwillingness in his heart and nodded, saying: "Yes, I will obey."
Then he directly ordered the Running Wolf Cavalry Regiment to withdraw directly from the Xuanwu Army.
Everyone rode the monster beasts and disappeared into the jungle beside the official road as quickly as possible.
The Xuanwu Army maintained its defensive formation until a long time later when it finally relaxed.
The impact that the Running Wolf Cavalry had just brought to them was actually also huge, and even everyone felt a little shocked.
The Xuanwu Army just now had used its strongest combat power, but it was unable to hurt its opponent at all.
The Running Wolf Cavalry Regiment came in and out in front of them, injuring hundreds of them, but they couldn't even touch each other's hair.
This kind of battle situation has probably never been encountered by the Xuanwu Army since its founding
