Chapter 408 (1/2)
”Order the cavalry team as the pioneer to attack Liu Ye's central army and open up a situation for the Chinese Army!”
Before the formal contact between the two armies, Xu he had already given orders to the cavalry team in the army. These days, Xu he was so annoyed by Ma Chao and pound that he wanted to send new cavalry to Liu Ye.
”Kill!”
After hearing the order, two thousand yellow turban bandit cavalry immediately gathered together and killed them together. Although two thousand cavalry had just been formed, 8000 horseshoes struck the ground, which was quite shocking.
However, the 12000 soldiers of Han Dynasty were not afraid of the Yellow turban thieves who were killed with a saber. They even looked quite calm.
As you know, there are a lot of Chinese and Western Liang cavalry in the army of Han soldiers. The soldiers of Han army can see Xiliang iron cavalry every day and witness the awe inspiring momentum of Xiliang iron cavalry breaking through the battle. Naturally, they are not afraid of these poor yellow turban cavalry.
Liu Ye did not direct himself, but turned to look at Yu Jin.
”Wenze, I'll leave the battle to you.”
Since Liu Ye was in Qingzhou, he was followed by less than a thousand people. So far, he has experienced many battles. However, his expression is still very calm and he calmly accepts the command.
”Swords, shields, bowmen, crossbow men
Boom!
A whole row of large shields stood on the ground, forming a solid shield wall, and behind the swords and shields were a row of bowmen with bows and arrows.
Among the bowmen, there are step bowmen and puckered crossbows lying on the ground, with both feet on the body of the huge bow. Both hands grasped the bowstring of the pouting crossbow together and tried their best to pull out the bow string. The bow string was slowly pulled up, and the obscure voice contained great power.
The sound of the horse's hooves became louder and louder, and the face of the Yellow turban rider became more and more obvious, while Yu Jin's expression was as firm as a stone, which remained unchanged.
Two hundred fifty, two hundred. Yu Jin's heart silently estimated that the five fingers holding the handle of the knife became more and more tight.
One hundred and fifty steps!
”Shoot!”
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The taut bowstring was released at this moment, and huge kinetic energy was released. Although the pucker was behind the archer, the force of the pouting crossbow was even greater. It even started later and arrived first. A full finger of thick and thin crossbow suddenly crossed a trail in the air, crossed the arrow, and shot fiercely at the yellow scarf thief's rider.
Bang!
I saw a crossbow arrow with the thickness of one finger fell from the sky, carrying a huge force, and fiercely penetrated into the shoulder of a yellow scarf rider. The strength of the crossbow shot was just opposite to that of the horse charging. The huge force attached to the crossbow immediately raised the whole person and turned back.
The force attached to the crossbow is very strong. If people turn on the ground without saying anything, even the horses will hiss and sit down on the ground. After the yellow scarf thief cavalry dodges not to be able to dodge, directly bumps into, one front after another immediately chaos.
The bow and arrow of the pouting crossbow is very long. Some even pierce the front corset of the first yellow turban thief, and then it comes out of his back and shoots into the body of the second one, killing two birds with one stone.
And then the arrow is not willing to fall in the downwind, a burst of light and strong arrows like rain cover, hundreds of yellow scarf thieves cavalry were shot into a hornet's nest.
After two rounds of continuous firing of arrows, nearly half of the 2000 yellow turban thieves' riders were killed and wounded. The remaining nearly 1000 yellow turban riders braved the rain of guns and arrows, and finally came to the Han Army's large array, ready to kill.
