Chapter 407 Login
The Jiangdong archers are worthy of being the largest rapid-fire archer corps of the Han Dynasty. When the Jiangdong archers began to truly exert the power of rapid-fire archers, the rain of arrows was simply covering the sky and the sun.

Looking up at the direction where the arrows were flying from, the dense arrows were close to each other, and the arrows shot from the front and back formed a long dragon, stretching from the position of the Jiangdong archers to the front of the long dragon, which was above the heads of Yang Ji's army.

"Buzz!" Under Yang Ji's control, the army on the river directly launched a repulsion field defense. Although the defensive effect of the repulsion field defense is not very good compared to several other conventional defense talents, the defense range of the repulsion field defense is large.

If the Jiangdong archers on the opposite side were a double-talent legion, Yang Ji would definitely not activate force field defense. After all, the defensive effect of force field defense is really average. But who can blame the opposite archer legion for being a single-talent legion?

Although the tons of arrows fired by the organized Jiangdong archers were indeed terrifying, the force field defense was enough to intercept most of the arrows, even though a considerable number of them would penetrate the force field defense and directly attack the soldiers under the force field defense.

However, the small round shields in the hands of Danyang's elite are not for decoration. With the full perspective of Danyang's cooperation and the mutual cooperation of Danyang's elite, these arrows that pierce through the force field defense can not play a big role. At most, some unlucky guys will encounter the concentrated fire of Jiangdong archers and be pierced into hedgehogs by the huge amount of arrows.

"Raise your shields for defense!" Yang Ji's order was transmitted through his will to the 60,000 troops under his command. The tops of their heads were full of arrows that fell after their kinetic energy was offset, mixed in with some arrows that still had considerable power.

"Ding!" Another arrow that pierced through the force field defense hit Yang Ji's mental force field. The arrow, with its tail trembling, finally fell powerlessly on the cloud road after consuming all its kinetic energy.

Except for people like Yang Ji who have mental force fields, the soldiers under Yang Ji's command are using the small round shields in their hands to defend against the arrows that want to pierce them from time to time.

However, not every force can use this type of rapid-fire arrow rain attack. Those who can do it are either big spenders like Chen Xi, or those who have unlimited firepower like Ju Yi, which means they are cheating.

Therefore, the Jiangdong archers stopped attacking after firing about ten rounds of arrows. Ten rounds of arrows contained at least 200,000 arrows. The exact number depended on how many archers Li Tong had organized. After all, everyone in Jiangdong was an archer, and they were the rapid-shooting archers who consumed the most arrows. In the blink of an eye, only God knew how many arrows would be consumed.

Zhou Yu couldn't possibly use up all his arrow reserves at this time. If that happened, would he still be able to fight the next battle? Even a large archery force like them couldn't afford to consume arrows on this scale.

"Li Yan, go to the shore and organize a front line to intercept the enemy's landing." Zhou Yu stopped the legion's attack, turned his head and shouted to Li Yan who was standing next to him. Now there was no need to release the legion's attack to break the enemy's cloud road. The enemy had already traveled two-thirds of the distance. With another one-third, the enemy would be able to land.

"Yes!" Li Yan, who was awakened by Zhou Yu's shout, shouted hurriedly, then turned around and ran to organize the shore defense line. He was a little distracted the whole time just now. If Zhou Yu found out about this, God knows what Zhou Yu would think. He also wanted to ask Zhou Yu for some tricks in practicing internal energy and mental power.

Looking at Li Yan's hurriedly leaving back, Zhou Yu frowned. He always felt that there was something hidden in Li Yan's heart. He was very similar to the Li Yan who was obsessed with dual cultivation a few days ago, and it seemed that he cared more about dual cultivation than the previous Li Yan.

Zhou Yu shook his head and looked at the enemy troops charging towards the shore again. Now was not the time to think about these things. The shore defense line might not be able to stop the enemy's landing charge.

Fortunately, the dozen or so legion attacks he had launched before were not in vain. Combined with the tons of arrow rain, they finally cut off the enemy's rising momentum. Otherwise, with the enemy's overwhelming momentum, they might have rushed into their camp while breaking through the shore defense line.

Soon, the vanguard army led by Yang Ji arrived at the designated landing site, but in front of them was the coastal defense force organized by Li Yan. The tight gun formation like a hedgehog stood diagonally on the shore, which made people lose the desire to attack.

Yang Ji looked at Zhou Yu's position and confirmed that this guy would not release his army to attack again. He turned and shouted to Chen Dao: "A round of arrow rain will test the enemy's spear defense."

"Yes." Chen Dao turned around, raised the command flag and shouted to the Bai Li soldiers: "Target the enemy's spear line in front, prepare a round of arrow rain - fire!" Chen Dao suddenly waved the command flag in his hand, and five thousand arrows suddenly rose into the air and shot towards the enemy's spear formation.

Li Yan, who was on high alert, saw the rain of arrows rising into the sky and immediately shouted to the Sword and Shield Corps: "Sword and Shield soldiers, raise your shields to defend!" The Sword and Shield Soldiers who had been hiding among the spears immediately stood up, raised their shields and overlapped them, forming a tilted shield wall that could cover the spearmen. The spear tips extending from the gaps in the shield wall were not much different from the spikes on a hedgehog.

Unless they are some extremely powerful arrows, five thousand arrows may not necessarily cause any damage. After all, it is only five thousand arrows. If the formation is a little scattered, even without the defense of a shield wall, it is estimated that it will not cause much damage.

Looking at the arrows stuck in the shield, Yang Ji narrowed his eyes. It seems that Sun Ce, who had inherited Yuan Shu's background, still had abundant resources in his hands. Otherwise, a new army would not be equipped with well-maintained shields, although most of them were made of wood, which was far inferior to the locust wood shields inlaid with steel plates on Liu Bei's side.

"Prepare a thousand javelins." Yang Ji conveyed his orders to Chen Dao. He wanted to see if the enemy's shields could withstand the javelins launched by the combined forces of the five Danyang guards.

"Groups of five, ready to throw spears, target the enemy spearmen square formation - fire!" As Chen Dao gave the order, the sergeant in the Bai Li soldiers drew out a spear, and the other four put their strength on the sergeant. When Chen Dao waved the flag, the sergeants holding spears suddenly threw the spears in their hands.

With a whistling sound, a thousand javelins with the combined strength of five people suddenly pierced into the shield wall of Li Yan's spearman formation. Some javelins directly pierced through the shield wall, leaving a string of blood.

Some javelins did not pierce the shield, but left half of the spear shaft outside the shield; some javelins had a terrifying impact force, directly smashing the shield wall, and blood could be seen flowing out.

Looking at the spearmen's phalanx that was already somewhat panicked, he wanted to continue throwing spears to disrupt the enemy's defense. Unfortunately, the spears from the enemy's rear also reached Yang Ji's side. The power of these spears was much greater than the previous arrows. After all, Zhou Yu had observed them for so long, and he should have come up with relevant data on the legion's cooperation. After all, Zhou Yu had quite a few veteran soldiers from Danyang, as he had seized Danyang County.

"Tsk, the force field defense is still a bit fragile." Looking at the javelin that pierced through the force field defense, Yang Ji shook his head and did not cancel the force field defense. God knows if Zhou Yu will suddenly launch another wave of arrows. However, the quality of Yang Ji's soldiers is higher than that of the opposite side. So even if the opposite side's javelin pierced through their force field defense, the damage to Yang Ji's army is limited. After all, the kinetic energy offset of the force field defense is not a decoration, it can at least weaken the power of some javelin.

"Chen Dao, lead your Bai Li soldiers to break through the spearmen formation in front, and the rest of the legions land quickly!" Yang Ji conveyed the new order. He had already seen Zhou Yu sending reinforcements to the shore defense line. It seemed that Zhou Yu was planning to trap Yang Ji's army on the water and prevent them from landing.

No troops were sent to block all the nearby landing points before, probably because they didn't expect Yang Ji to cross the river in this way. Yang Ji guessed that Zhou Yu's face must be quite good now, but he didn't know whether Zhou Yu's expression was still calm and indifferent.

At this time, the vanguard of Yang Ji's army was not far from the shore, so after receiving Yang Ji's order to go forward and open the landing point, Chen Dao led the Bai Li soldiers and rushed out directly, directly attacking the spearmen formation in front.

The rising momentum of Yang Ji's army was indeed interrupted by Zhou Yu, but under the implementation of Chen Dao's will, the momentum of the Bai Li soldiers was not interrupted. Unless Zhou Yu could calm Chen Dao's spirit, as long as Chen Dao's will remained strong, the momentum of the Bai Li soldiers would not be interrupted.

"Chen Dao, it's you again--" Seeing Chen Dao rushing out with the Bai Li soldiers, Li Yan, who had his head poked out from the shield wall, immediately gritted his teeth and shouted at Chen Dao.

“Hahaha, this is the expression you will have when you see me. It’s a pity that your strength is just like that, otherwise you wouldn’t be unable to stop us every time.

Now it depends on whether you can stop our charge. If you can't, we will requisition this landing point. " Chen Dao laughed and ran towards Li Yan. They were still hanging on Yang Ji's solidified Xuanxiang, with the kinetic energy offset of the force field defense. The threat of Li Yan's spearmen phalanx to them was greatly reduced. From now on, as long as they were careful and didn't get concentrated fire, there would be basically no problem.

Li Yan looked at Chen Dao, who was running towards him at full speed, with a sullen face. Damn Chen Dao, he actually said that his strength was not as good as his. Although this was true, he shouldn't say it in front of so many people. Doesn't Li Yan have any face? He is indeed a barbaric warrior who doesn't know etiquette!

Li Yan observed the army behind the Bai Li soldiers and found that the entire enemy army was passing quickly without any intention of stopping to prepare for the rain of arrows.

"Sword and shield soldiers, disperse your shield wall, spear soldiers, step out, stop the charge from the opposite side!" Li Yan drew his sword and gave orders to the coastal defense forces.

As the distance between the two sides got closer, Chen Dao squinted his eyes and calculated the distance between them. As the countdown in his heart ended, Chen Dao gathered his own internal energy and part of the legion's will and injected it into the long sword in his hand.

"Kill!" Chen Dao shouted, and then suddenly slashed down the long sword that had gathered a lot of internal energy. In an instant, a sword light containing a large amount of internal energy emerged and rushed towards Li Yan's spearman formation at a very fast speed.

Li Yan's eyebrows flashed. Could it be that Chen Dao's brain was confused? In the current environment, even the legion's attack was useless. What results could be achieved by just relying on personal internal energy attacks?
Suddenly, Li Yan widened his eyes, and a brilliant light of will flashed in Li Yan's eyes. That was the will buried in Chen Dao's attack that distorted reality. It was an intangible will attack.

"Get down!" Li Yan shouted miserably. The troops here did not have any ability to defend themselves with their will. Perhaps some elite veterans could rely on their own strong will to withstand Chen Dao's will attack.

However, ordinary soldiers other than the elite veterans could not resist. They were a hastily formed legion, so how could they have any resistance to will? Unless it was a double-talented legion that involved changes in will, although the double-talented legion on the non-will side only slightly touched the will, it was still enough to defend against Chen Dao's will attack. At least they would not fall down as soon as they were touched.

Chen Dao swung his sword and the shining sword light of will quickly swept across the phalanx of spearmen in front of him. Within a semicircular area with a radius of about ten meters, all the soldiers who had no will resistance fell to the ground. Some of them never got up again after falling to the ground, some fell unconscious for a while and then got up by themselves, and some staggered and refused to fall down.

Before Li Yan's spearmen phalanx filled the gap, Chen Dao quickly jumped into the semicircular gap, and with the Bai Li soldiers behind him who could keep up with his speed, he quickly expanded the semicircular gap.

As the long sword was swinging up and down, Chen Daoge blocked a spear that was stabbing at him. Then he turned his wrist and the glowing blade slashed across the body of a spearman next to him. The leather armor on his body did not have any effect at all.

As subsequent Bai Li soldiers poured into the gap opened by Chen Dao, Li Yan led the remaining spearmen and sword and shield soldiers to retreat to the second line of defense and rebuilt the formation to block the enemy.

"Strike of will..." Zhou Yu looked at the coastal defense troops who had retreated to the second line of defense, his face seemed to be getting paler. He seemed to have forgotten about the strike of will. After all, the troops under Sun Ce and Yuan Shu did not have a legion on the will side.

There are individual soldiers who can use will attacks, but these people cannot gather together at all, and they cannot see Zhou Yu. If these people do not show their will attacks in front of Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu will not be able to discover the special features of these people, let alone realize the special features of will attacks.

"It seems that I have to find a way to break through the internal energy leaving the body. Otherwise, I won't be able to withstand this amount of mental energy consumption, and it will be difficult in the future." Zhou Yu turned his head and looked at Yang Ji and murmured. Although in his talent test, this person only had a spiritual talent, but the information from Fenggao showed that the person in front of him did have internal energy leaving the body.

Otherwise, Zhou Yu really couldn't understand how Yang Ji could support such a large-scale Xuanxiang formation and the Cloud Qi Secret Technique? What's more terrible is that Yang Ji not only supported it, but he was also alive and kicking while supporting it, which was a bit too much.

"Li Tong, organize archers to support the coastal defense forces, slow down the advance of the Bai Li soldiers, and buy time for the reconstruction of the rear front." Zhou Yu shook his head and threw away those messy ideas. The important thing now is to reconstruct the front line and let the army under his command gain even a little bit of will resistance.
