Chapter 764. Chang'an Corps, sharp and inexhaustible!

Which is better, Wang Hou’s double-bow pulley crossbow or Guan Yu’s Jingchu’s crossbow?

To be honest, Chu crossbows are stronger! The Romans have conducted experiments to use various metals to make their famous Roman scorpion crossbows, but their ejection ability and durability are still far inferior to animal tendons. This crossbow arms mixed with natural bamboo and wood glue, and the crossbow strings made of soft animal tendons, are not sure how much less explosive power is, but the precise range is actually more than ten meters away than the double-bow pulley crossbow. In the sound of a sniff, even flying crossbow arrows pierced directly into the forged turtle shell steel armor.

The one who shot the breastplate was lucky because Liaodong forged armor was not a vegetarian. Just like the test of the Xixia Zijia, which was the peak armor of the cold weapon era, was also the test of the crossbow shot on the armor sheet, which was shot on the armor piece, was collapsed.

But breastplate can only help each other. In order to reduce weight, there are no such heavy armor on your arms, calves, and faces!

It was like a heavy rain slapping on the lotus leaves. Some of them were shot in the arrow and continued to move forward firmly, while the other part was shot into the river. The heavy infantry with the throat and arrow on his face collapsed dullly on the ground. The blood from the arrow in his arms trembled and continued to move forward with the Xuanhua axe, while the middle of his legs was also tilted to one side.

But what moved Guan Yu was that at least dozens or hundreds of Qin heavy infantry were killed and injured in a round of heavy crossbow shooting. However, except for trembling, no one of the vanguard troops broke the formation was shocked or exclaimed in pain, and it was really like a large army crawling out of hell.

Shaking his head, the beautiful bearded man still looked at him coldly.

In order to save physical strength and maintain the formation, the marching heavy infantry also moved forward slowly, so this hundred meters was particularly long for them. The rain of arrows fell on their armor like a locust, and the life-threatening short crossbow also roared in front of them, and the ears were like heavy hammers hitting their breastplate.

Fortunately, although the heavy crossbows were sharp, it was difficult to build. There were only one thousand crossbows in the entire 30,000 Jingchu army, and Guan Yu only arranged five hundred heavy crossbows in front of him. Two rounds of crossbows were baptized by three rounds of bows and arrows, and the casualties reached one tenth. However, the five vanguard regiments still advanced to the front of the shield formation of more than 20 meters. After they entered and exited the 30 meters, the second row of Qin and the third row of Qin also advanced heavily.

It was already a charge distance! Even the soldiers on the front line had already smelled each other's sweat and saw the other's equally nervous faces. The third row of crossbows began to push back quickly. The Chu army squatted down and held the shield unconsciously became more concerned. The spearmen tightened their spears. Behind the brigade, the Nanjundao player rushed to the formation and prepared for hand-to-hand combat.

Even Guan Yu, who was pressing the formation in the back, habitually leaned forward slightly, as if ready to welcome the upcoming hand-to-hand combat.

But who knew that at this critical moment, the heavy infantry of the Qin army suddenly stopped abruptly. Instead, amid the rapid footsteps, the Qin army light sergeants, who were no longer threatening bows and arrows, rushed up from their wings. More than 200,50 kilograms of heavy black iron pipes were suddenly taken in front of the shield formation by them.

The distance was less than twenty meters, and even Guan Yu could only barely see a smoke-prone iron pipe butt. With the crackling sound of bursting beans, it suddenly rang in front of the military formation.

Qi Jiguang's sharp weapon to destroy the Japanese pirates was no matter how small it was! Jing Chujun, who was leaning against the wooden shield, suddenly felt his eardrums itch and his body was shocked violently. Among the wood fragments, a round light appeared on his shield.

The back of his head was hot, and he turned around in surprise. The two Chu infantry soldiers who were also squatting and holding guns were all neatly left. In his scarlet aura, his tongues were still shaking.

The fear was so great that he threw away the shield. The Chu soldier also turned around and screamed and fled.

The huge casualties were too close, and the achievements of these 200 tiger squatting cannons were also amazing. The first row of the originally neat tower shield formations suddenly became terrible. Some infantry fell down with their shields, while others threw the shields in fear and turned around and ran away. The Chu army's formation was bloody in front of them! The heavy iron balls and lead balls, which were even worn by three or four in the dense crowd, fell at least a few hundred people. The originally solid defensive formation was broken like this.

Even the anxious sword player on the front was slow for a second before he realized. What greeted their fearful eyes were the groups of Qin army's double crossbows.

Indeed, the power range is not as powerful as that of Zhang Chu crossbow, but the double bow crossbow made from the assembly line is simple, reliable and numerous! More than 800 double bow crossbows were squatting down as the heavy infantry squatted down and aimed at the heads of the backbone players of the shield formation. Amid the terrifying screams of the Chu army, the crackling sound of the bowstrings, the success and failure of Jingchu soldiers fell down again.

At this point, the front army of Jingzhou Army seemed to have been smashed by an iron hammer. It was no longer a hole, but the formation was completely broken. At this time, the heavy infantry of the Qin army squatting with Xuanhua Axe rushed up shouting and just like the Qin army that swept across the six countries hundreds of years ago, holding long pointed hands, waist and mysterious head, and was in a state of unstoppable. The terrified Chu army sword player was like the Chu army who was killed five hundred years ago. He was pierced through the leather and wooden shield by the sharp axe and spear head, and was picked up fiercely, and the entire front was shaken violently.

Now Guan Yu understood why Zhuge Liang sent him an evaluation before he went to the expedition, and that the advantage of the attack was no better than the king's army!

However! The array of 50,000 Jingchu troops was as long as the 10,000 Chang'an Qin troops. Guan Yu's military formation was famous for his reputation. After shouting, he turned around and left behind more than 2,000 people who were still fighting with the Qin troops.

Moreover, the Jingchu army's excellent training was also reflected. Although the more than 20,000 main forces in the front were panicked, they quickly and difficult to keep their formation and retreated. Moreover, the Jingzhou sword and shield hands in the fight also fought for more than ten seconds before they completely retreated.

This skill has been enough for Guan Yu's army to retreat dozens of meters.

Now Deng Ai has felt the pressure Cao Zhang has been under. He personally followed the Central Army and was put on his shoulders by several infantrymen. His hands holding the telescope were trembling constantly.

However, it is wrong to say that it takes three generations to cultivate aristocrats. Wang Changle is only the second generation and seems to have inherited the calmness of the general. She is walking in the central army. Even her pretty face under her helmet is still a morbid excitement. The movement of holding the sword is almost exactly the same as when Wang Hou was supervising the battle. Her voice is particularly sharp and loud, with a pretty face red. She is screaming and screaming.

"Chang'an Corps! Armise!!!"

Behind her is the banner of the central army with the word Cao. Cao Zhang, the marshal of the three armies who should have been commanded by the central army, was not here!

His eyes looked south and looked at the only cavalry of the Chang'an Legion. The female cavalry of Jianrui Camp was wandering on the side of the battlefield, as if he was about to pounce on his back formation at any time. Danfeng's eyes twisted back gloomy. Guan Meiran once again pushed the heavy axe forward, surrounding Luzhai, and Jingchu infantry once again formed an array.

On the top of the city, he nodded with satisfaction when he watched this scene. The old thief Sima Yi and his personal soldiers rushed down the battle-torn city in Xuchang.
