Chapter 1360 Flat box truck and armor-piercing spear
After Sima Jun entered the range of the bow and arrow, dense arrows poured out and shot towards Sima Jun.
This time, the arrow reserves were extremely large. In order to prepare for this battle, Cao Liang specially signed an order and added 500,000 arrows to the first camp, half of which were crossbow arrows. Therefore, when fighting in the first camp, there was no need to consider whether the arrows were enough. As long as the Sima army entered the range, they immediately fired with all their strength without leaving any blind spots.
Sima Jun's heavy-armored infantry protection was still very good. He held a giant axe and held a shield tightly. The armor on his body was airtight. When many arrows fell on them, they would make crisp sounds and then fall to the ground.
Sima Jun's steps were extremely heavy, and such a high load made their progress seem very slow, but it is undeniable that their steps were quite solid, and each footprint was clearly printed on the ground, slowly and powerful, and they were like a torrent of steel, and then slowly advanced forward, gradually approaching the flat box truck array.
The arrows of the Bingzhou Army are not completely useless. Even heavy armored infantry armed to the teeth may not be able to completely ignore these arrows. No matter how strong the heavy armored infantry is, it is impossible to block the most fragile eyes. Maybe a wave arrow flying over there can shoot through their eyes and kill them.
Even the armor on your body is not a piece of iron. As long as the arrow shoots through the gap between the armor, it can still cause fatal damage.
Moreover, the closer it is to the flat box truck, the power of the bow and arrow will be greatly enhanced, and the penetration will be significantly improved. People will fall down within dozens of steps of the flat box truck.
However, in this craze of attack, someone fell down and could not stop the Sima army's offensive. They still struggled to move forward, trampling the dead at their feet, and thousands of troops stepped over them, and the dead were soon trampled into mud.
Faced with heavy armored infantry, long-range damage is ultimately an auxiliary means. Only melee fighting is the only effective way to curb its attack. In this regard, first climbing the camp is strictly trained, so when the Sima army's heavy armored infantry rushed up, the spearmen who climbed the camp first were already on high alert.
Sima's heavy armored infantry had rushed to the front of the flat box truck, which was close to the flat box truck. At this time, these Sima soldiers had become extremely excited, screaming one by one, raising their giant axes, and strode towards the flat box truck.
Their intention was very obvious, which was to use a giant axe to split the flat box truck. These axes were very sharp and there was a cold light on the axe blade. Even if the flat box truck was made of solid and solid, it was eventually made of wood. Under the chaos of axes, these flat box trucks must have debris flying across the board and were chopped and chopped.
But before they could rush forward, a spear suddenly pierced out of the gap in the flat box truck without any warning, directly piercing through the heavy armored soldiers.
The heavy armored soldier looked at the spear that pierced into his body incredibly. The spearhead had already penetrated from his back, and blood was surging. The proud armor he was wearing was easily pierced like a piece of thin cardboard.
The spear used by the Bingzhou Army was not an ordinary spear, but a special armor-breaking spear. It is sharper than an ordinary spear. The blade is longer and the thickness is twice as thick as an ordinary spear. Overall, it adopts a triangular structure and has three blood grooves. After piercing into the body, it will bleed a lot, leaving the injured without time to treat it, and the killing effect is better.
Ordinary armor is made of cast iron. There is no problem with this kind of armor protecting the attack of bows and arrows, but if the more powerful three-bow crossbow is used, this kind of armor will be difficult to resist. The penetration power of the armor-breaking spear is more than twice that of the three-bow crossbow. Therefore, these heavy armored soldiers were easily penetrated by the spear in front of the armor-breaking spear, and died.
When the flat box truck was designed, many holes were left on the car box. These holes can be used for archery and crossbows or for spears. These holes are very small and can basically only accommodate a spear, but they can have an unpredictable effect.
When Sima Bing rushed up, due to the barrier of the flat box truck, he basically had no chance to face the Bingzhou Army. They had no intention of fighting with the Bingzhou Army. They just raised their axes one by one and prepared to chop towards the flat box truck.
But those elusive spears suddenly stabbed out, making Sima Jun no time to make any defense moves. Of course, wearing heavy armor, holding shields and giant axes, made it difficult for these soldiers to have any flexibility in their movements. Faced with the sudden attack of the spear, they used their physical protection to carry them hard.
The originally indestructible iron armor was as brittle as paper in front of this armor-breaking spear. In a blink of an eye, a large area of Sima Bing fell. Even when it was temporary, they were shocked. Their faces were full of twists and they seemed to not believe that this was true.
However, the Sima Army's offensive did not weaken because of the deaths of the people in front of them. Instead, they rushed forward one after another, swarming and pounced on them, because they were already close to victory and it was impossible for them to give up the attack because of some casualties. Therefore, the more people were killed in front of the flat box truck, the more Sima Army's offensive was more fierce.
The armor-breaking spearmen who first entered the camp were well-trained. Facing the influx of Sima Army, they were completely calm and calm. They always looked at the right time and took action. Basically, one shot was a life, and it was not a waste of effort.
The height of the flat box truck is about ten feet high, and the Bingzhou army gathered on the roof to closely defend. Sima Jun previously felt that at such a small height, there was no need to be equipped with a ladder, and he could climb up just by stepping on the shoulders of his companions.
But when they got closer, they found that it was difficult for them to have the opportunity to climb, because the people below could not stand at all. As long as they got closer to the box truck, these elusive spears would easily pierce them over.
And even if they were lucky enough to climb up, they were facing rows of Bingzhou troops. As soon as they showed up, they were stabbed down with a shot and had no chance to gain a foothold.
Therefore, Sima Jun's offensive seemed very fierce, but it always posed no threat to the flat box truck.
