”Wow …”
Powerful Arrows s flew over, and the soldiers of the Gaoguanli screamed. At this moment, the advantages and disadvantages of the equipment were fully revealed. Those Gauzeli soldier s who were recruited at the last minute were mostly poor hunters without even a warm piece of clothing, where would they find any armor? Under the powerful crossbows of the Han army, all of them fell to the ground.
The Korean Army Soldiers taught the hunters a lesson, telling them what a crossover weapon was. The strong crossbows of the Han army was an industrial product, the crossbows and bowstrings were all made of fine steel, they were shot out far and accurately, the sharp triangular Arrows's lethality was extremely strong. As long as you are hit by a Arrows, blood will spurt out. Not only will it make you lose your ability to fight, if you do not get treatment in time, you will die from blood loss.
”Quick... Hurry and report this to the His Royal Highness! ”
Watching the rows of Gauzeli soldier s fall, Li Yi finally understood the disparity in strength between the two sides. The archery of the Gaoguanli's hunters could not be said to be top-notch, but in front of the fully armed Han army, those Arrows were unable to penetrate the Korean Army Soldiers's shield and armor, so he had no choice but to ask the Fifth Prince for help.
”Shoot, run and shoot!”
It had to be said that these Gaoguanli Hunters were truly elite soldiers. Although they continued to have people fall, they were still running on the riverbank, running from south to north and also shooting arrows as they ran.
”Kill …”
However, the Han army's wooden raft still unstoppably charged onto West Gorge River's East Bank. The Korean Army Soldiers s jumped off the wooden raft one by one and rushed to the shore, screaming as they charged towards East Bank. At the same time, the Korean Army Soldiers that was still on the raft continued to shoot arrows at the shore.
”Everyone, form a formation and prepare to charge!”
The Han army that was rushing ashore did not scare Li Yi. He shouted calmly and immediately ordered the one thousand cavalrymen under him to retreat fifty steps. At his command, the horsemen took fifty steps back and turned their horses to face the Chinese again.
There was only so much open space on the riverbank. If the cavalry wanted to charge, there wasn't even a place for the horses to speed up. Although 50 steps was a bit too little, Li Yi had no choice but to take it. As long as the cavalry could run, he believed he could chase the five thousand Han soldiers down the river.
At this time, the first batch of more than five thousand Han troops had just boarded the East Bank. However, they did not have war horses, nor did they have long spears. However, Xun Yu and Xun You had already thought of a way to deal with the cavalry. At the same time that Korean Army Soldiers went ashore, rows and rows of horses came and stood in front of him.
Seeing how the Han army was rejecting their horses, Li Yi could not help but be dumbstruck. He hadn't noticed the repulsive horses on the Han Army raft in his panic just now. Only now did he realize that if more than a thousand of his servants rushed up, more than half of them would fall to their deaths.
”Damn Han Army!” All soldiers, get ready to charge! ”
The Gauzeli soldier that was currently fighting with the Han army immediately moved closer to Li Yi, tightly surrounding him. Obviously, these hunters had not undergone any training, as they were just like a group of ducks that were kept and placed on the side of Li Yi.
”Warriors of the Gaoguanli, charge! Those who take a step back will be cut down! ”
Li Yi raised his long knife high up, pointing it at the Han army and roared. Those Gaogueli's apoplexy s put their bows and arrows on their backs, took out their hunting knife s, shouted loudly and rushed towards the Han army on the riverbank.
”shieldman, advance and form the formation. archer, continue releasing arrows!”
Zhao Yun waved the long knife in his hand and shouted. Nearly a thousand soldiers holding steel shield immediately rushed to the front to stop the horse, and quickly gathered behind them. Before the Gaogueli's apoplexy had arrived, these five thousand Korean Army Soldiers s had formed a simple but sturdy arc line.
Surrounding the Spirit Stallion were over a thousand steel shield soldiers, forming an arc defensive wall. The long knife in their hands stuck out from the gaps between the steel shield and more than two thousand archer s shot out rows after rows of Arrows. Looking from afar, it looked like a big hedgehog.
The Gaogueli's apoplexy continued to fall, but under the urging of the Generals, they still rushed forward. The soldiers at the front couldn't help but secretly complain when they saw the repulsive horse. Those repulsive horses were as tall as half a person, and they were stabbing out with rows and rows of spikes. They simply couldn't reach the Chinese army inside, so why would they have to climb over the repulsive horse to kill them?
”Hurry up and drag these damn things away!”
At this moment, the soldiers of both sides were already within reach, while the Arrows s of the Han army were like a torrential rain. The Gaoguanli did not have time to give the order to adjust the formation. Although he did not know what it was called, he knew it was necessary to order the soldiers to drag it away.
”Kill …”
Just as Gauzeli soldier was about to pull away the horses, Zhao Yun shouted loudly. More than five thousand of his soldiers raised their long knife s and rushed towards Gauzeli soldier. In the blink of an eye, more than five thousand Chinese army and more than ten thousand Gaoguanli hunters were engaged in a chaotic battle.
”Charge!”
When Li Yi saw the Han army rush out to stop their horses, he immediately felt that the chance had come. He did not care about the Gaogueli's apoplexy at all as he rushed forward while shouting. Those one thousand cavalry soldiers were all his servants, and with a shout, they urged their warhorses forward. Thousands of warhorses raised their iron hooves and sped up. Waving the sabers in their hands, they pounced towards the Han army that was fiercely fighting on the shore.
The heaven and earth seemed to tremble as more than a thousand charging cavalrymen fiercely rammed into the bodies of the soldiers from both sides. The muffled sound of the collisions caused one's scalp to go numb. The long knife s of the cavalrymen danced in the air, slashing onto the bodies of the soldiers blocking in front of them. Be it the Han army or the Gaoguellian, all of their flesh and blood splattered everywhere.
