Song Mingyue

Chapter 181 The World's Best Divine Crossbow
rumbling~
A team of chariots, horses and cavalry galloped across the plain, grass clippings splashed everywhere, dust was flying, it was Zhao Hao and his troops.

What Zhong Shidao said is correct. The Daliao River is sinking, and the soldiers and horses are concentrated in the Huanglong Mansion area in the northeast. The south is only a symbolic reserve of soldiers and horses. The hinterland is basically empty. , There is no need to travel day and night, unimpeded, as long as they don't attack the city, there will be no soldiers and horses to stop their walk.

The so-called traveling across thousands of miles is just full of danger at both ends, otherwise how could the teacher come up with such a plan.

Zhao Hao just stared at the rivers and mountains of Yandi to the south of the Great Wall. The eyes of the generals behind him were all shining, and they just stared at everything in front of them.

The Youyan Plain unfolded in front of their eyes, and this land produced almost everything that any powerful country in this era needed.Abundant food, enough fish and salt, forests, iron and stone... The rich and vast flat land in front of me stretches to the end of the line of sight. I don't know how far away. The Xiaoxiaogu River in the distance hangs horizontally like a jade belt in the distance. Jizhou City Dotted among the vast plains, everything in this vast area has been away from the Han people for a long time.

Xiyuyu!
Zhao Hao reined in his horse, pointed to a small river in front of him, and said loudly, "Let's rest for a while."

The military order was passed on quickly, and all the soldiers cheered, dismounted and ran towards the river, only a few soldiers who could play Qin Opera yelled loudly on purpose.

With the gurgling of the river, the soldiers untied their water bags and filled them with water. They chewed the bread and jerky with great relish in the cool water of the river.

The sun is setting in the west, the setting sun is like blood.

Zhao Hao took the beef jerky and water bag from Fang Baihua, and looked at the soldiers bathing in the sunset with mixed feelings.

More than half a month ago, he was the son of the royal family who was dressed in fine clothes and fine food, a senior member of the fourth rank, and the commander of the Jinyi Guard who walked with his arms crossed in Bianliang City, but now he took a group of brothers to live and sleep in the open, and went to Liaodong. It's too big, but... I like it!

Suddenly there was a rumbling sound of horseshoes ahead, stirring like thunder on the plain.

Zhao Hao's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly looked up
With the sunset glow, it can be seen that a dark cloud is rushing in, and when you get closer, you can see hundreds of cavalry, outflanking the crowd.

The complexions of Zhao Hao, Yang Keshi and others turned pale instantly.

Those are soldiers and horses of the Liao people!
Five or six hundred cavalrymen of the Liao army, without stopping, rushed forward without stopping, and rushed towards Zhao Hao viciously, and they were already more than two miles away.

Yang Keshi shouted anxiously: "Get on the horse!"

More than [-] well-trained elite cavalry immediately got on their horses, raised their weapons, and soon entered the fighting state.Fang Baihua, Liang Hongyu, and Wu Song led dozens of Jingyi Guards to surround Zhao Hao.

Seeing that the enemy army was getting closer, Yang Keshi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, it's not the Yuanban cavalry from the Liao people... Form up and prepare your crossbows!"

Under the command of Han Shizhong, Lu Zhishen and others, more than [-] fine cavalry immediately lined up, raised a large crossbow together, put arrows on the crossbow, and aimed at the front.

Divine arm crossbow!
Zhao Hao stared closely at the big crossbows in the hands of the three hundred cavalrymen, feeling a little excited in his heart.

The god arm crossbow, also known as the god arm bow, has a bow body length of three feet three and a string length of two feet five. Even if it is made of elm wood, half an arrow can still be inserted into it, which shows its amazing penetrating power, which is far beyond the reach of ordinary crossbow arrows.

This is simply the most powerful crossbow in the world, but it is a pity that the production process is too complicated, even a skilled craftsman will take several months to make one, and even in the entire Song army, there are no more than a thousand.

More than [-] fine cavalry from the Western Army didn't seem to pay any attention to the cavalry from the Liao Army in front of them, their eyes were full of murderous intent.

The enemy army was getting closer and closer, and gradually the cavalry of the Liao Army could be heard shouting in Khitan, and the crossbows in the hands of the soldiers were raised higher.

350 steps!
Three hundred steps!
250 steps!
Yang Keshi shouted: "Fire the arrow!"

咻咻 咻 ~
The sound of the air being penetrated was loud, and three hundred crossbow arrows shot out fiercely, shooting at the enemy cavalry as fast as a shooting star.

It was the first time in Zhao Hao's life that he saw the power of the world's most powerful crossbow.

puff puff~
The terrifying lethality of the god arm crossbow caused the Liao cavalry in the front row to fall off their horses one after another like straws, and many horses were also shot down by the crossbow arrows. The horse was hit by an arrow, and either died or was seriously injured. For a while, the sound of tearing flesh and blood, screams, and neighing of horses could be heard endlessly, and the formation of Liao cavalry was in an uproar.

After a round of crossbow arrows was shot, the enemy army had fallen hundreds of people, the front army was severely injured, and was trampled by the rear army, which also affected the formation of the rear army, and the enemy formation was already in chaos.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the leading enemy general hurriedly raised his knife and roared loudly.

Hearing the roar of the enemy general, those Liao cavalrymen who were not afraid of death were immediately cheered up, and their shouts were like thunder.

"Reload the arrow!" Yang Keshi roared.

At this time, the enemy army still has a distance of more than 200 paces. As long as the speed is fast enough, it is enough to shoot within a hundred paces of the enemy army. Of course, this speed can only be achieved by the elite of the Western Army.

Sure enough, when the cavalry of the Liao Army approached within a hundred paces, all the elite soldiers of the Western Army had already loaded their crossbows.

咻咻 咻 ~
Following Yang Keshi's order, he shot out again, and the Liao cavalry fell down a large area in the crazy arrow rain, and lost nearly a hundred people.

This time, because of the closer distance, the power was even greater, and Zhao Hao finally understood what it means to "shatter men and horses".

He saw a crossbow arrow enter through the neck of the enemy cavalry's horse, and then burst out abruptly. After shooting into the chest of the cavalry on horseback, only the arrow tail was left shaking.

There was also a crossbow arrow that penetrated through the throat of a cavalry soldier in front, and then penetrated into the chest of a Liao soldier behind him. After breaking through the barrier of armor and flesh and blood, it was able to shoot through again.

The god arm crossbow is indeed the number one crossbow in the world, so terrifying!
After two rounds of arrow rain, of the more than 500 Liao troops, there were only less than 300 left, and the strength of the two armies was already equal.

Yang Keshi raised his battle gun and shouted loudly: "Kill!"

Before he finished speaking, the first general rushed out from beside him. The horse was like the wind, and the moon knife was like lightning, galloping towards the rebels. It was Lu Zhishen.

Returning to the army, Lu Zhishen has also returned to vulgarity. He put on his battle armor and used a Zen stick, which is a bit nondescript. So he returned the 61-jin water-milled Zen stick to the furnace and made a 61-jin Yanyue knife. It's just a green dragon.

Lu Zhishen hadn't been on the battlefield for a long time, especially regretting that he missed the battle against Xixia. Now that he was back on the battlefield, he was extremely excited, so when he heard Yang Keshi's order, he rushed out impatiently.

kill!

kill!

kill!

Behind him, Yang Keshi, Han Shizhong, and the elite cavalry of the Western Army also shouted loudly, followed closely behind Lu Zhishen, and rushed away.

In a blink of an eye, Lu Zhishen had already charged into the cavalry of the Liao army on his horse. With a knife in his hand, he knocked down two passers-by. The banner is coming.

Seeing that he was only a dozen steps away from the general of the Liao army, Lu Zhishen let out a roar like a thunderstorm, and swung the Yanyue knife in his hand like a blowing wind.

Lu Zhishen rushed like a whirlwind to the Liao army leader who hadn't reacted yet. The 61-jin Yanyue Saber was like a thunderbolt, and he went forward without hesitation.

The panicked general of the Liao army hastily stretched out his long knife to block it.

Just as the long knife was stretched out, the unstoppable Crescent Moon Knife had already slashed his neck. The sharp blade pierced down from the neck into the flesh and blood, and blood gushed out like a fountain. The long knife in Liao Jiang fell to the ground, and immediately kill.

The Yanyue knife was lifted obliquely, and the body of the Liao army leader was suspended in the air.

At the same time, Han Shizhong, who came late and came first, also rushed into the enemy's formation with his horse, and with a roar, the big flag was also chopped down by Han Shizhong and the flag soldiers.

Before the battle, half of the soldiers and horses were damaged, and now the main general has been killed and the formation flag has been cut down. All the cavalry of the Liao army have no fighting spirit. They all shouted and turned around and ran away. Squeeze off the horse and trample to death.

The Liao army came quickly and withdrew even faster, and in a blink of an eye, they ran clean.

The red sunset glow shone brightly on the corpses and blood all over the ground, like blood and fire.

In this battle, 240 enemies were killed, 12 horses were captured, one of their own was seriously injured, and [-] were slightly injured. It can be described as a complete victory.

However, Zhao Hao knew that such brilliant results were all thanks to the god arm crossbow. In fact, it didn't take long for the two armies to fight close to each other. Although the Song army was all elite, in fact, they only killed three or forty people in this short period of time. , and more than a dozen people were injured, and it was the two rounds of crossbow arrows that really captured the enemy.

Zhao Hao secretly performed five life healing techniques on the seriously injured white stile soldier, which stabilized his injury, and then vacated four carriages to let the wounded soldier lie in them to recuperate. Sunset, slowly heading north.

Zhao Hao is thinking about the God Arm Crossbow. His Bingjia Shop can also exchange crossbow arrows, but he can't exchange the God Arm Crossbow. It seems that the system needs to be upgraded as soon as possible.

While thinking about it, he saw Yang Keshi approaching, and said in a low voice: "Young master, now that our whereabouts have been revealed, the Liao people have already followed us, and I am afraid that we will be walking around day and night again."

Zhao Hao was startled, and asked, "How do you know?"

Yang Keshi said: "The last general understands the Khitan language quite well. Just now, the cavalry of the Liao army were shot down by crossbow arrows one after another, and they were severely damaged. It was already in chaos, because the Liao general shouted, 'Catch the envoy of the Song Dynasty, and reward him with millions of dollars. Promoted to the third level, so everyone is rushing forward... The last general guessed that he was afraid that someone in Beijing who wanted to harm the son had reported the news of the son's entry into the Liao Dynasty to the Liaogou court, so he sent a large army to search and pursue him. "

Zhao Hao's expression changed, and he asked in surprise: "General Yang said that these Liao dogs came directly to a certain place. Doesn't this mean that there will be a steady stream of pursuers here?"

Yang Keshi smiled wryly and said: "The group just now is not the elite of the Liao army. If they encounter the Liao dog's Yuan Barrier, it is not yet known who will win the battle... Liao Dog Yuan Barrier's bravery is not among the white stiles. Down."

Zhao Hao couldn't help taking a deep breath, and said anxiously: "So, tonight, I have to hurry on the road at night, and stay in the early morning, and then find a hidden place to rest."
