Chapter 85
Three days later, the rest had been completed, and the spirit of the army had recovered to its peak. Cao Cao finally ordered his army to be strong and sharp, and go out in full force.
A large army marched out of the camp in an orderly manner, the armor on their bodies shone brightly in the sunlight, and the eyes of the barbarian guards who were stabbing were aching.
"Hoohoho!"
With the loud military drums, Cao Cao's soldiers roared loudly, and the sound spread ten miles away. This is Cao Cao's consistent strategy, using the uniform discipline of his soldiers and the advantage of being numerous and powerful to shock himself. 's enemy.
And the roar, the roar of all the soldiers, the tidy roar, is the best way to strengthen his reputation. No, Cao Cao stood on his high platform and looked at the soldiers on the opposite city wall. , At this moment, his face was pale and his whole body was trembling.
The art of war has a cloud, if it is doubled, it will be attacked, and if it is tenth, it will be surrounded. However, at this moment, Cao Cao didn't want to talk about the art of war, and his number had already exceeded the enemy's ten times.
And the emperor told himself before he set off, even if all the troops and horses are lost at this moment, it doesn't matter.
Then you can also follow your own ideas. If you are tied up because of the damage of the soldiers, you will really feel that you can't let go of your hands and feet!
"Send the order, the bowmen have ten rounds of coverage shooting!" With a bang, Cao Cao drew out his saber from his waist, swung forward sharply, pointed to the camp in front, and ordered.
The messengers quickly conveyed Cao Cao's orders under the banner of the army. Weiyuan general Taishi Ci, who commanded the bow and arrow from a distance, saw Cao Cao's order, and immediately ordered the 10,000 bowmen under his command to prepare to shoot.
With a sound of dispatch, the bowmen quickly formed a formation. The camp in front of him was not large, but the defenders had 3,000 of him. Except for the side in front of his army, 1,000 people were arranged to defend, and the other There were only 500 people stationed in the three left and right rear positions.
The people in the camp had already been sent to the mountains and forests by Jones, to keep them secret, so as not to fail to surrender, but instead be slaughtered by a large group of enemies to vent their anger on the city.
At this moment, there are two people standing on almost every part of the 500-meter-long city wall. It can be said to be strict with oneself, densely crowded together, leaving no loopholes.
However, this also just sent Cao Cao's heart, crowded together, and did not know how to defend, wasn't that the right target? How can they break their determination to resist without first giving them a few rounds of coverage shooting with bows and arrows, so that they understand what it means to rain down arrows!
Jones stood at the head of the city, frowning tightly, watching the group of people outside, one by one, lined up in front of the gate of his camp, but only stayed 200 meters outside the city wall, and did not go any further.
But they didn't see any ladders or siege hammers on them. And the group of soldiers didn't see any long hair on them, and even the sword was only a short one, only fifty centimeters long.
Faced like this, how can you attack your well-guarded city with strong soldiers! Jones was puzzled, because with the skills of barbarians, he had been out of the mainstream of the mainland for many years.
Since I came to this ghost place, I have been worrying about survival. How can I have the time and ability to keep the memory of making bows and crossbows!
Perhaps the kingdom of Ryan, which migrated from the north, has one or two of his well-made crossbows, but they are only things for the nobles, for viewing and entertainment.
The Ryan tribe kingdom is also a savage branch, but it was migrated from the savage kingdom farther and closer to the center of the continent.
Because it is close to the mainland, there is a certain amount of communication with the mainland, and it can be secretly smuggled from various kingdoms on the mainland and spread into some bows and crossbows.
But this number is not large, it can only be used as a play for the upper-class nobles to decorate the existence of identity. The craftsmanship of the real bow and crossbow is not strictly guarded by any kingdom.
How can it be possible to allow this kind of technology to flow out if it is only a military weapon that affects the survival of the country? Even if other kingdoms have the same technique of making bows and crossbows, just like the red fire beasts, the effects of bows and crossbows produced by different production processes are also different.
Therefore, in the barbarian kingdom, although some people have imitated some bows and crossbows, they are all bows that can only shoot him a few dozen steps, and no more than a hundred steps at most.
Moreover, the power is still very small. For those who are vindictive or wear armor, even their defenses cannot be broken, and they are soft.
Because of this, the craftsmanship imitated by the people can't be of great use at all, and it is naturally abandoned by the barbarian military, and it is just left to those hunters to hunt.
And naturally, the barbarians who migrated to this lost land would not bring such useless folk-made bows and crossbows.
Therefore, the barbarians on the entire plain have never heard of the existence of this kind of bow and crossbow, except for the high-level officials of the Ruian Tribal Kingdom in the north, but until now, except for a few seniors, they have only heard of it.
"Three, two, one, let go!"
With the sound of the sound, the first batch of 3,000 crossbowmen had already drawn their bowstrings, and the soldiers who had raised their crossbow arrows all aimed at the enemy in front of them.
"Bang bang bang!"
With a sound of the bowstring being relaxed, the sound of floating in the air came. A sharp arrow pierced through the sky and crashed down towards the barbarian on top of it.
"Puff puff! Da Da Da!"
A sound, the sound of long arrows piercing the flesh and the clicking sound of the wooden camp, accompanied by the screams of the barbarian soldiers, sounded over the entire camp, like a sonata, magnificent.
In just an instant, the long arrow shot and pierced into the body of the barbarian soldier. The whole process took only three seconds. However, above the city, the original 1,000 soldiers were suddenly 300 less of him.
In a large area that was emptied in an instant, some crowded city walls were suddenly much empty, which made the soldiers who had complained about the crowd feel a real sense of emptiness.
However, they didn't have the heart to cheer, instead they were horrified, their faces paled and they were terrified of the scene in front of them.
However, before they returned to God, in the second round, the bow and arrow from the third step shot over. The bowmen shot in the first round have reloaded their bows and arrows.
They shot round by round, until they emptied the ten bows and arrows in their quivers, they stopped and retreated to the rear to supply supplies, and the barbarian soldiers on the city walls were also able to win a period of relaxation.
In view of the fact that it is like rain, falling wave after wave, as if it is continuous and unstoppable, and it will not stop without him for a while.
This kind of continuous offensive made the barbarians above the city, who had never experienced this kind of attack, feel a wave of horror and despair in their hearts, and completely defeated their bottom line determination.
Some people even ran out in desperation, letting those arrows shoot themselves to death and take away their lives, so as to free themselves from the tormented hell in their hearts.
The situation on the battlefield suddenly fell into decadence, and the guards on the city wall seemed to be in jeopardy. As long as Arrow Rain spoke to him a few more times, he could disintegrate the defense of the entire city, leaving no one above him to stand.
