I raise dragons in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 157 On the verge of firing (first update)
Chu Zhen's departure is heralding the future of the Hu army.

Zhang Yi dare not take it lightly.

"The ballista cart is ready! When the enemy reaches the red cloth, fire the ballista!"

"Yes!"

As early as the day before yesterday, Zhang Yi had ordered someone to tie the red cloth to a place where the ballista cart could attack, so as to confirm the distance.

In this way, the effect of the Ballista Carriage can be maximized as much as possible.This can be more accurate than visual inspection.

As soon as Chu Zhen went back to the barbarian team, he saw a large number of barbarians coming on horseback after only a while.

This belongs to the cavalry, and the number is about 3000. The most important thing about the cavalry is that they can solve the battle at the fastest speed.Its action is light and quick, and it is less affected by terrain and weather.

This time, the barbarians used cavalry mainly to attack the army of the Dragon Legion. The armored cavalry had a terrible impact.

But Zhang Yi was already prepared.

"Ballista cart ready!"

Together with his ancient knife, the operator of the ballista immediately placed his hand on the trigger.

The three thousand cavalry shouted, and charged towards them with shields and broadswords in their hands.

When they just passed the red cloth.

Zhang Yi gave an order.

"emission!"

shhhhhh...

Seven crossbow arrows as thick as an adult's arm flew out and shot in the direction of the three thousand cavalry.

The sudden shooting from the ballista stunned the three thousand cavalry, because they had never seen such an attack before.

A crossbow arrow that arrived first directly pierced the frontmost cavalry, and the sharp arrow directly passed through the body of one of them, and the huge force flew it away, thus affecting the five people behind.A total of six people landed directly, and the cavalry behind couldn't dodge in time, the horses directly crushed them, and five people were directly buried under the horse's hooves.

In this way, this one crossbow directly eliminated six people, and the other six crossbows were not weak, directly knocking down 27 people.

So a total of 33 people were knocked down before and after this wave of attacks.

These numbers are actually nothing in front of 3000 people, but they did have a certain impact.

Their influence is that the cavalry in a small area was eager to avoid, and nearly a hundred people were turned on their backs.Many people suffered minor injuries as a result.It's a chain reaction.

"What is that, why is it so powerful!?"

The leader of the barbarians stared at the crossbow arrows tightly.

"My lord, those are crossbow bolts!"

"Crossbow arrows?"

"The large bow and arrow of the Han people!"

"It's so terrifying, we must win the crossbow bolt! Warriors, go! Take down the enemy, and we can get this powerful weapon for attacking!"

As soon as he responded, the cavalry immediately clamped their horses and rushed towards the place where the Dragon Army was.

At this time, the second wave of crossbow arrows had arrived.

shhhhhh

Another wave of attacks!
The Hu people already had psychological pressure, and they subconsciously wanted to avoid the crossbow arrows.But it was just such a dodge that made the whole army mess up.

This wave of attacks directly or indirectly took away more than [-] Hu people.

This is a huge amount, but there is no way.All the barbarians were shocked when they heard this, and some even left the team and went around to where the Dragon Army was.

At the same time, the loss of more than seventy people made the slow-down cavalry even slower.

But this matter is not over yet, the third wave of attacks has already formed.

"Go! Kill!"

The cavalry were just past the middle.

Zhao Zilong held his gun across his chest, clasped his fists and said:
"My lord... these barbarians are coming soon, I request to fight with them!"

"My lord, I, Zhang Liao, also request to fight with him!"

"Wait a minute! Let the sword and shield soldiers get ready first, and protect the archers. Get out of the wall first! I want them to thank some people."

"Yes!"

The two said nothing more.

Zhang Yi took command.

"All archers obey orders! Get ready to fill your bows!"

brush brush

More than 1200 archers have fully drawn their bows and arrows, and are ready to launch their bows and arrows at any time.

"It's almost time."

Zhang Yi looked at the coming barbarian cavalry, and when they reached the range of the bow and arrow, it was time for them to be harvested.

At the same time, the seven ballista carts have long been pushed to the rear, but they cannot be placed in the front line and dismantled by the enemy, that would be really thankless.

Watched the oncoming cavalry as they reached the second red cloth patch.

Zhang Yigu swung his saber with intent.

"Fire arrows!"

shhhhhh

More than 1200 bows and arrows were shot out.

The sky was densely packed with bows and arrows, and these sharp arrows roared towards the place where the barbarian cavalry was.

Some bows and arrows hit the horse directly, and the horse hit the arrow directly, and then suffered pain and lost control.

Some bows and arrows aimed at the barbarian's body, but the positions where these bows and arrows stabbed could not completely kill them. After all, they were wearing armor, so they were not so easy to be pierced, but there were still some sharp arrows that pierced directly. Pass the armor and hit the vital point.

Some of them ran off, because the speed of the cavalry was too fast, and it was good enough to hit.

Therefore, this wave of bow and arrow attacks only cleaned up or injured nearly 300 enemies.

This matter is not over yet, Zhang Yi yelled again: "Full bow! Get ready!"

In less than ten seconds, the soldiers had already started to nock their arrows for the second time.

At the same time, the cavalry had reached a distance of 100 meters.

"Fire arrows!"

Zhang Yi didn't feel a little panic because of their arrival, but gave the order more calmly!
shhhhhh

The second wave of bows and arrows was shot out, the same as last time, a huge bow and arrow attack, leaving another two hundred people behind.

Such a hit rate is still a little less, but for these new recruits, Zhang Yi doesn't expect anything extravagant, killing nearly 600 people twice before and after is enough.

In addition to the attack of the ballista cart, there must be less than 1000 people, and some were injured and left the team. In this way, the number of main attackers is probably less than 2000.

"Zhao Zilong, Zhang Liao!"

"exist!"

"Get ready to meet the enemy!"

"Yes!"

The two couldn't hold back for a long time, they wanted to kill the enemy very much.

Zhang Yi knew that these bows and arrows definitely couldn't stop the cavalry from attacking, even the walls couldn't stop them completely.

Their walls were built to prevent attacks from archers.

What he didn't expect was that Tuoba Xun didn't take the initiative to fight them with archers, but sent cavalry to try to solve the battle quickly.

If this is the case, then they are ready to fail!
Zhao Zilong and Zhang Liao went down to organize.As for the archers, it will be given to Bao Xin to command.

The first round of confrontation between the two sides was imminent.
