Chapter 1743 Battle of Black Water Plain IV

Sure enough, under such a terrifying and dense rain of arrows, the Wei cavalry was difficult to resist. Although they were all equipped with round defensive shields, the shield was too small to barely protect the key parts of the cavalry and other parts of the body could not be covered.

Even if the arrows were shot on the leg were not fatal, they could not defend against people, but they could not defend against horses. These war horses did not have vests and horse armor, and the attacks of the Shu army's arrow rain were no different. Under this kind of cover-like attack, it was almost impossible for the Wei cavalry who rushed in the front to escape.

Many war horses were shot, and the entire Wei army's front troop was overturned, with a mess, and heavy casualties.

Many Wei soldiers were not shot by arrows, but were thrown to the ground because of injuries to the war horses. However, in the chaotic battlefield, the consequences of cavalry after being dropped are often extremely tragic. They are either shot to death by arrows or trampled to death by war horses that are crowded behind them. After all, the speed of the war horses is too fast, and the Wei cavalry rushing up behind them has no time to dodge, so they can only crush them through them.

Faced with such a dense and terrifying rain of arrows, the Wei cavalry was fearless and still rushed towards the Wei army's front like moths to the fire. Some people kept falling in front, while the people behind were sprinting with all their might.

No matter how terrifying the rain of arrows from the Shu army was, it could not stop the fearless Wei cavalry. Even if the bodies were covered with them, they still rushed to the front of the Shu army.

The dense gun array of the Shu army became the last obstacle for the Wei army to break through the Shu army's position. In order to avoid accidentally injuring its own people, the Shu army avoided the coverage of the crossbow when it rushed to the front of the formation.

But this gun forest still became an obstacle that the Wei army could not break through. After many Wei cavalry broke through the arrow rain, they directly crashed into the gun forest of the Shu army. When a war horse rushed forward, more than a dozen long spears would often pierce.

Rather than saying that a spear was stabbing over? It was better to say that the Wei army's war horses crashed into it directly? The huge impact force also caused the gun forest to fluctuate, and the Shu army soldiers were obviously rushed backwards. Although the Wei cavalry rushed up were alive, such a suicide-like impact was also a huge impact on the Shu army's front.

The war horses rushed over, and the Shu army was facing a huge test in the gun formation. The Wei cavalry often rushed over with a spear. The length of the spear was greater than the long spear used by the Shu army infantry. The Wei army stabbed hard. Before the dying, it could at least replace one or two lives. Although it was not enough to break through the Shu army's front? But there were more people charging? It could also pose a considerable threat to the Shu army's front? Once the front was broken, the Wei cavalry could sweep the battlefield and harvest their lives.

This is a very tragic battle, with soldiers on both sides fighting each other with their lives? They are fighting for a desperate battle? They are tit-for-tat? They are not giving up any inch of land.

Jiang Wei was also secretly shocked when he saw this scene. The tenacity of the Wei cavalry was far beyond his imagination. After all, under the dense rain of arrows in the Shu army, most of the troops probably had already developed a desire to retreat. It was too difficult to break through this rain of arrows, but the Wei cavalry ignored the existence of this rain of arrows, charged forward with arrows, and took advantage of their speed to rush to the front of the Shu army.

Fortunately, the Shu army's spear formation was also composed of well-trained soldiers. Otherwise, under the strong impact of the Wei cavalry, it would be easily destroyed. Once this final barrier is lost, the Shu army's front will be broken, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

When a brave man meets on a narrow road, the battle at this time is no longer just a competition of strength, but more a competition of will. Whoever can persevere until the end of this battle will be the real winner.

The Wei cavalry charged at any cost. Even though the corpses were already piled up in front of them, they still sacrificed their lives and rushed towards the positions of the Shu army again and again, and wanted to use their flesh and blood to tear open the rain of the Shu army's guns and arrows.

The Shu army was also extremely tenacious. Even if the people in front fell down, the people behind would immediately increase, leaving the spear formation unmoved.

What was really surprised was Sima Lun. Faced with the black attack of the Wei cavalry, he was first shocked, and a sense of fear arose. In the many battles with the Wei army, the Wei cavalry brought Sima Lun endless pressure. Every time he fought against the Wei cavalry, he had to do his best and get up to his spirit. But even so, the powerful impact of the Wei cavalry was still like a nightmare, pestering Sima Lun, making him feel afraid.

However, after entering the battle, Sima Lun was surprised to find that the Shu army was not afraid of the Wei army's cavalry at all, and even had a vague advantage. This was not just a matter of combat willpower, but the Yuanrong crossbow used by the Shu army did indeed play a suppressive role in the cavalry. If it weren't for the strong combat power of the Wei army, they would have been killed and retreated in a panic of armor.

Sima Lun couldn't help but sigh that Sima Jun had the opportunity to equip such a highly lethal weapon. Unfortunately, no one in the Sima family paid attention to Ma Jun's invention at that time. He believed that no matter how powerful the crossbow was, it still had no effect in the face of absolute power. The people of the Sima family focused most of their energy on fighting for power and profit, which instead allowed Cao Liang to get the drawings of the crossbow.

Because Cao Liang's cavalry is powerful, he can use cavalry to control the Sima army and will not use crossbows to deal with the Sima cavalry. Therefore, in previous battles, crossbows were only in an auxiliary position and did not show the essence of a big killer.

Now looking at the killing and damage caused to the Wei army by the Shu army by the original version of the crossbow, Sima Lun couldn't help but lament that what he missed would eventually be missing. If the Sima family had already realized the power of the crossbow, it might have changed the outcome of the war.

The battle continued, the fight continued, and countless soldiers died on the battlefield in each breath. This kind of decisive battle of hundreds of thousands of people was extremely shocking.

The Wei cavalry launched fierce charges again and again. No matter how many robes fell down, they could not stop their determination to charge. Among them, the Wei cavalry was more unyielding. They had swept most of the world and were unstoppable. But now they encountered the most tenacious resistance of the Shu army, so they naturally disobeyed. The Wei cavalry kept using all their strength to launch attacks, just to prove that the Wei cavalry was invincible and could not be scared by this small difficulty in front of them. They swear to fight to the death and never die.
