Chapter 383: Heavy Weapons Duel


{Thank you, friend and bookfriend, 150708155221497 two monthly passes} "Damn, what is Yang Yanzhi doing?"

Seeing that the Eastern Navy was actually in formation, Cao Wei was anxious and scolded.

A cold glint shot out of Murong Diao's eyes, and he snorted: "This son must have seen Shi Hu's intentions, he is already invincible, he should be on the defensive, and force us to attack first from the flank." ” Murong Hao didn't speak, although he vaguely felt that Yang Yan was not this kind of person, but the facts were in front of him, and there was no way to defend Yang Yan.

In fact, Murong Hao admired Yang Yan a lot, if it weren't for the different positions, he would be destined to be an enemy in the future, he would be very willing to make friends with Yang Yan, but at this time, Yang Yan's actions made him secretly disappointed.

Shi Hu and the others also stared at the East Navy's every move, looking left and right, just like a foreign worker.

Zhi Xiong smiled: "Zhong Zhongshan Gong, sure enough, each has a ghost, the last general feels that the three thieves must have been dissatisfied, and what Yang Yan did was really asking for his own death."

Shi Zhan hated Yang Yan the most, and arched his hand and said: "If you capture this son alive, please Zhongshan Bus will be dealt with by the last general." ” "We'll talk about it then" Shi Hu was noncommittal.

The Eastern Navy was indeed not in a hurry, the chariot formation was knotted on the flanks, guarded by crossbowmen and spear and shield soldiers, and at the forefront was a full 500 bed crossbows That's right, there is no shortage of materials in the city, craftsmen work day and night, making bed crossbows and god arm crossbows, crossbow strings and bowstrings are different, twisted with hemp rope, especially the bed crossbow is a stupid guy, mastered the technology, has sufficient materials, and is easy to manufacture.

Five hundred bed crossbows were arranged in three rows on carts of varying heights.

Behind the bed crossbow, there were 3,000 crossbowmen, all of whom were armed with divine arm crossbows, and they were set up in three firing formations, mixed with 2,000 archers.

Later, 3,000 cavalry were mixed among the 100 trebuchets, and there was an army of mandarin ducks, and foot soldiers were placed behind the formation.

For this battle, Yang Yan also made a bloody investment.

It is also thanks to Shi Hu that he took the initiative to take the defensive, otherwise there would only be a slight interference, and it would be difficult to form such a hedgehog-like formation, mainly because the bed crossbow and trebuchet were heavy and large, but there was a layer of soot in front of the door, and the wheels were deeply sunk in, and it was very difficult to drag.

Near noon, the hedgehog array was finally arranged, Yang Yan sighed, and waved his hand violently: "Drum" "Knock Knock" The big drums at the head of the city sounded heavily, the army array moved forward in an orderly manner, there was only the sound of ruts and horses' hooves between heaven and earth, the whole army of 15,000 people, there was no sound, and the soldiers were silent, and a solemn and murderous atmosphere rose to the sky.

"This" Murong Diao's father and son and Cao Wei looked at each other, and solemn expressions appeared in their eyes.

Shi Hu and the others also stared at the slow-moving behemoth, their eyes unblinking.

About two hundred paces apart, the formation suddenly stopped.

"Put" Some generals waved small flags fiercely.

"Stretch" A strong bowstring sounded, and hundreds of black lights shot out towards the front of the formation.

"Not good" Shi Hu's complexion changed drastically.

Because of the angle problem, the bed crossbow was not used, but Murong Hao had experienced the power of the bed crossbow, but he did not mention it to Shi Hu, so Shi Hu was still seeing the bed crossbow for the first time, if he had known that Yang Yanjun had such a huge killing weapon, then he would not have said anything to form a circle to defend.

"Click, click" "Ahh Before Shi Hu's scream fell, the giant arrow had been shot into the car array, the huge arrow pierced the carriage, the wooden planks were scattered and bursting, and the sky was full of wood chips, and the giant arrow still had the strength to spare, the soldiers hiding behind the car had no time to avoid it, screaming and being pierced, and even someone was hung on the giant arrow, and nailed to the chest of the next person.

As far as the eye could see, there was a mess in front of the formation, wooden blocks and broken meat were scattered everywhere, and the vehicles were hit with thousands of holes, and about half of them were scattered.

"Put" The general official flag waved again.

The second row shoots, and the first row hurriedly twists the strings and arrows.

"Ahh Since the formation of vehicles had been shattered and had lost cover, the second row of giant arrows had caused even more damage, and the corpses were torn apart, even if they were wearing iron armor, they still passed through.

Other trebuchets were affected, and two of them were shot off beams and columns, collapsing on the spot.

"Quick, trebuchet quick" Zhixiong couldn't wait to shout: "Destroy the arrow cart of the Eastern Navy, quickly" Ding Gong was pointed by the bow and arrow, and pulled the pole together, Shi Hu dispatched a hundred trebuchets, each of which required 100 people to operate, deducting the two injured and destroyed, more than 9,000 Ding Zhuang hugged in front of the battle, not only operating equipment, but also hostages.

The general's eyes flashed with a touch of unbearability, and he looked back at Yang Yan.

Yang Yan was wearing bright silver bright light armor, and his helmet was a cluster of red tassels, and only Yang Yan himself could wear red tassels on his head in the whole army, which was very recognizable, but Yang Yan was expressionless, and he didn't look at the general, just looked at the formation of the army.

In fact, he couldn't bear it, but what could he do, not to shoot as much as possible, let the stones into the battle, and it was his own soldiers who died, regardless of emotional factors, just from the cost comparison, it was extremely cost-effective to exchange the lives of his own soldiers for the lives of the soldiers on the other side.

Yang Yan took the route of elite soldiers, and the Eastern Navy was well fed, and the weapons and armor were also equipped as much as possible, and after a long period of training, in terms of individual combat ability, it was enough to compete with the strong armies in the world, and what was even more commendable was that the Eastern Navy had cultivated the consciousness of coordinating operations and abiding by military orders.

And Ding Gong has nothing but two strengths.

Besides, if you don't like it, Ding Gong worked hard for the army, but in fact he was an enemy, although he was forced, but the poor man must have something to hate.

The general turned his head, took a deep breath, and said, "Release."

"Stretch" A third row of crossbow arrows was fired, aimed exclusively at the trebuchet.

More than 20 trebuchets were hit, huge arrows were driven into the wooden arms, and several trebuchets were overturned.

However, even if the bed crossbow is a three-stage launch, it cannot be guaranteed to be continuous and uninterrupted, after the third round, the first round of bed crossbow is still twisting the string, grasping this gap, Shi Hu shouted repeatedly: "Hurry up, hurry up, d" "Call you lazy" There are also soldiers who take leather whips to see who moves slowly, and when they go up, they will have two whips, driving the Ding servants to pull the pole together.

"Buzz" Finally, dozens of stone bullets took off one after another, and the whistling sound was like thunder.

"Judge the landing point by yourself and choose the opportunity to lie down" Some generals shouted.

The soldiers looked at the sky, caught the rapidly approaching black dots and the increasingly sharp whistling, and then fell down one after another, curled up into a ball and lay on the ground, which is somewhat similar to the modern dodge of artillery shells, and is also one of the basic training subjects in the army, specially designed to dodge stone projectiles fired by trebuchets.

Compared to cannonballs, trebuchets have a slower initial velocity of stone projectiles, making it easier to capture trajectories.

There was a loud bang, and the stone bullets landed one after another, destroying more than ten bed crossbows, but the lethality was very surprising, except for a dozen or so people who were unlucky enough to be hit by the stone bullets, the rest of the soldiers were successfully avoided.

Reset And the generals shouted.

The soldiers rushed forward and continued to operate the bed crossbow, and in a few moments, the huge arrows were shot over, and the trebuchets were destroyed one by one.

Tuoba Division, Murong Division, and Cao Wei were stunned, the soldiers on both sides did not move, and they were purely bombarded with heavy long-range weapons, and it was the first time that such a strange combat mode had been seen.

Cao Wei said with a complicated expression: "I'm afraid that Shi Hu can't stand it." ” Murong Diao nodded: "Yang Mansion Jun can be a great enemy. ” In the Shi Hu array, Shi Zhan also hurriedly surrendered his hand: "Zhong Shangong, this can't be done, as long as the trebuchet is destroyed, the Eastern Navy will open the way with giant arrows, approaching little by little, our side can't retreat, once retreating, the rebels on both wings will take the opportunity to attack, and the last general is willing to lead the headquarters to attack Yang Yan's camp." “ "Okay, let's go" Shi Hu was also angry and anxious, originally planned for him to wait for Yang Yan to attack in a circle formation, but in the end, he had to attack, in fact, he had a premonition that something was not good, but at this time there was no way to retreat, and if he went forward, he might be able to kill a bloody way, so after a little hesitation, he agreed to Shi Zhan's request.

Shi Zhan hurriedly galloped out and mobilized nearly 15,000 soldiers in his headquarters, including 5,000 cavalry on the flanks, nearly 10,000 infantry soldiers with spears and shields, and crossbowmen with crossbowmen in the Chinese army.

"There is no advance or retreat in this battle, but whoever takes half a step back will be killed" Shi Zhan waved his hand.

"Knock Knock" The cowhide drum thumped heavily, and with the dull sound of the drum, the footmen moved forward.

The first is hundreds of vehicle-mounted wall shields, this kind of shield is one zhang high, half a zhang wide, the lower part is pointed and cone-shaped, inserted into the soil when used, and the rear is supported by soldiers or large carts, which are connected together like a wall, often used in conjunction with the three-zhang iron gun, specifically to prevent the impact of cavalry.

After that, there was a mixed formation of ordinary spearmen and archers.

"Kill" The foot soldiers were like a tide, and under the cover of the vehicle's wall shield, they began to rush forward to kill
