Chapter 278 Invincible

Of course, the use of throwing spears has been around since ancient times. Even in primitive society, hunters would use wooden throwing spears to kill prey. Later, they were used in the military. Wooden and stone spear heads gradually became bronze spears.

The head and the iron gun head were replaced.

However, the use of throwing spears in the past was mostly the behavior of individual soldiers. Among cavalry, there is probably no precedent for its large-scale and large-scale application. Cao Liang's move can be regarded as the first of its kind.

Thousands of horses in the Xiaoqi camp galloped with momentum like a rainbow, and the rumble of horse hooves was like thunder, shaking the earth and the mountains. Even the ground under Wu Jun's feet was trembling slightly.

Facing the surging torrent of cavalry, infantrymen instinctively have a kind of natural fear. Although the Danyang soldiers are known as the most elite in the world, in front of the wolf-like and tiger-like cavalry, there is a hint of fear in their eyes.

The look of fear came from the bottom of his heart, and it seemed that he was not controlled by Wu Bing's own emotions at all. Even the hands holding the gun barrel were trembling.

The Wei army's cavalry came very quickly, but in just a few blinks, they had already entered the area within a stone's throw.

The Wu army had already started firing arrows, trying to use bows and arrows to block the Wei army's offensive.

The number of archers in the Wu army is quite large. Although they cannot meet the standard of volley shooting, even if they are shooting sporadicly, thousands of arrows gathered together are not to be underestimated.

At this time, the advantages of the spindle formation can be reflected. Since the front end of the spindle is sharp and thin, very few of Wu Jun's aimless and diffuse formations can really fall on the heads of Wei Jun's cavalry.

But Shi Bao and Deng Ai brought enough shields this time, and most of the arrows falling from the sky hit the shields. The archers, who were originally regarded as the enemy of the cavalry, were rewarded with disastrous results this time.

The biggest advantage of the spindle-shaped battle formation is that it can avoid the attacks of archers. The front part is slender and the middle part is thick. When the middle part enters the range of the enemy archers, the front part is already in contact with the enemy's front line.

.

Compared with the one-line formation, the defensive capability of the spindle formation is greatly improved and can effectively reduce cavalry casualties.

However, on the offensive end, the sharpness of the hammer tip needs to be tested. Whether it can break through the Wu army's defense line, the sharpness of the hammer head is crucial.

Shi Bao and Deng Ai took the initiative to invite Ying to serve as the vanguard. It was definitely not a whim or a moment of anger, but a deliberate decision. They also wanted to take this opportunity to test the true power of the spear.

Soon they were getting closer and closer to Wu Jun's spear formation, and the Wei Jun cavalry could even feel the cold light on the tips of the opponent's spears, which was very cold.

After entering the last fifty steps, we also entered the range where the spear can be used. The three long spears strapped to the back of the knight are inserted into the specially made backpack behind the knight's battalion. The spear points are all pointed upward. When using,

Just reach back and you can easily pick one out and throw it out with great force.

For the cavalry, the distance of fifty paces is easy to lose. It is precisely because of the exquisite design of this backpack that it is very convenient for the cavalry to access the throwing lances. The cavalry can quickly throw the second and third throwing lances after the first round.

, without any sense of pause.

Hundreds of throwing spears were thrown out at the same time. In the face of the strong inertial force, these throwing spears almost flew up, and fired towards the Wu army's position with overwhelming momentum.

Shi Bao and Deng Ai were a little uneasy. After all, the spear-throwing project was developed by themselves and has not been tested in actual combat. Whether it can destroy Wu Jun's position is still unknown.

Swish, swish, swish, all the cavalrymen of the Wei army's vanguard threw their spears, and bursts of screams and wailings, ghost cries and howls were heard from the opposite side.

Just as Cao Liang expected, the Wu army's spear formation was effective against the cavalry who rushed directly into the formation, but the opponent's first move to throw their spears caught them by surprise. After all, the spears in their hands were not defensive weapons. They wanted to withstand the dense crowds.

The spear that was thrown over was obviously weak.

Throwing at close range has the advantage of close range. On the one hand, the enemy has no time to defend. On the other hand, such a close distance is powerful and penetrating. The sharp spear tip can not only penetrate the Wu Army's spearmen at the front,

Even the sword and shield soldiers and archers behind them were not immune. They threw their spears with great force and directly pierced the Wu soldiers.

Since the Spindle Formation focused on breaking through in the center, it then used the width of the battle formation to penetrate in little by little, and then disintegrated the entire Wu Army's battle formation.

The spear array in the middle was attacked by the Wei army on such a large scale, and it was unable to react for a while. There were already a large number of casualties.

Shi Bao and Deng Ai seized this opportunity, took the lead, and rushed directly into the Wu army's formation. Behind them, thousands of Wei army cavalry filed in and went straight to the back end of the battle formation.

Everything just happened between lightning and flint. Fifty steps away, the cavalry was on horseback. In just a few breaths and a few blinks, the originally seemingly impregnable defense line collapsed at this moment.

The combat effectiveness of the Wei army's cavalry is indeed terrifying and invincible!

When Wen Qin saw that Shi Bao and Deng Ai had successfully completed the breakthrough, he was immediately overjoyed and immediately ordered the Xiaoqi battalion to speed up the attack and rush in through the gap that Shi Bao and Deng Ai had just opened.

A thousand-mile embankment is destroyed by an ant nest. A small hole or flaw can cause the entire impregnable embankment to collapse.

Wu Jun's seemingly incomparable spear array was pierced by Wei Jun's spears in just a blink of an eye. It would be in vain to block such a big hole even if it was left like a thumbs up.

The number of Wei Jun's cavalry rushing up was increasing. Although Wu Jun was only broken through the middle, there were still defensive positions on both sides. However, Wei Jun followed this gap and eroded Wu Jun's position bit by bit. Waiting for Wei Jun's spindle shape

When the strongest waist of the battle formation rushed up, Wu Jun's spear formation completely collapsed.

The ensuing battle became a one-sided battle. Without a formation for defense, the Wu army's infantry could not withstand the impact of the cavalry. Zhuge Ke sent at least 8,000 elite troops to guard the entire valley entrance, but they were blocked from the battle formation.

The breakthrough led to the complete collapse of Wu's army, and they didn't even have time to hold up a stick of incense.

Wu Jun's disintegration can even be described as rapid, a complete defeat.
