"you……"

"Okay!"

Zhang Chao was still angry with Liu Sheng, and Yuan Shao interrupted coldly. He had heard of the stone throwing in Shanziying, but he had never cared about it. As Liu Sheng said, what if he would throw stones again? Could it be that the bow and crossbow are powerful? But if he could throw them a hundred and fifty steps away, he would have to be serious.

Ten thousand Qiang cavalry dispersed, shooting around the huge army formation, either arrows or stones, no matter what the correct one is, they just shoot and throw them around. The front of the army formation is five miles wide and three miles deep. Even if the cavalry shoots arrows, no matter how bullshit the stones, it will threaten people less than two hundred meters away. Liu Sheng is extremely confident about this, but these screaming guys are wandering around the periphery, and the soldiers in the army formation are always tense, approaching the carriage, and the soldiers in the tower shield also have to raise their shields to avoid arrows and stones.

Seeing his military formation becoming messy, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao ignored any stones or stones.

"Send the orders to send arrows to the general and shoot them to death!"

Yuan Shao was particularly annoyed. Not only was he annoyed, but Cao Cao, Sun Jian and others were even more annoyed, but their arrows were even more expensive to shoot. However, their crossbows were a little worse, and they could not match the range of longbows and ten-stone yellow crossbows.

Dong Fu and Dong Fang did not intend to fight to the death, but just to harass the 100,000 army, or gather together with three or five light cavalry, from time to time, someone jumped off the war horses and replaced arrows for the yellow crossbow, sometimes near and sometimes far away, shot arrows and ran away after throwing stones. Although there were many troops of 100,000, the range of arrows was insufficient, so it was very difficult to effectively shoot the light cavalry.

Even if someone occasionally has a good bow and arrow, it’s just a good way to avoid it. Where can’t the military formation that is five miles long and three miles wide be shot?

It was too scattered. Ten thousand riders came here and there and shot them three or five hundred times, and ten or eight riders came there. Sometimes they were close and sometimes far away. They just entered the range of 100 steps, but the next moment they turned around and ran two hundred steps away. They were like an irritable mosquito, and they wanted to slap them to death but could not.

Perhaps Yuan Shao was anxious.

"The order Wen Chou and Cao Ren, the order Wu Anguo, and the order Wu Anguo should be driven away!"

"Drive away-"

Yuan Shao was angry, the formation opened, five thousand cavalry ran out, hundreds of chariots rushed out, and saw this scene...

"Ding bee...ding bee..."

A sharp whistle sounded, and countless light cavalry that were originally flying around like mosquitoes scattered and fled outward. Seeing this scene, Yuan Shao finally breathed a sigh of relief, but before a moment, his nerves were instantly tense, and countless "mosquitoes" gathered together.

"Ha ha……"

Dong Fu laughed to the sky.

"Brothers, the hard food is served--"

"Snatch it--"

"Ha ha……"

Countless men laughed, holding big yellow crossbows and kicking war horses, while those holding longbows were replaced with faster firing and more accurate bows.

"Eat a big meal-"

Dong Fu shone an arrow at a chariot. As he shouted, countless arrows shot out. In just a moment, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were shocked.

"quick!"

"Quickly sound the gong--"

Cao Cao raised the command and roared angrily. For a moment, no matter whether it was the chariot or the cavalry, countless people fell into war horses. General Wen Chou and Cao Ren roared repeatedly, kicking war horses and rushing to kill, but their horses were not as good as Liangzhou horses. They chased and killed nearly a mile, but when they discovered the danger, it was too late.

Countless Qiang cavalry accompanied the left and right wings, and deadly arrows shot out. The cavalry screamed and fell from the war horses. The chariots lost control and hit the ground, screaming one after another...

"coward--"

"No cowards—"

Wen Chou and Cao Ren roared repeatedly, countless Qiang cavalry on the left and right wings did not fight with them, and kept shooting deadly arrows on both sides, either shooting people or horses, and even ignored the "Carrying Battle Left-wing Guidelines". The chariots lost control and smashed heavily on the ground, one after another rolled, one after another screamed and fell from the war horses. Countless people saw the tragic scene, and were pale in all colors...

"Dangdang--"

"Dangdang--"

The sound of the retreat gongs came one after another. Wen Chou, who was caught in several arrows, tried his best to kick the war horses, and from time to time he would wave a few short swords to dial the arrows. As for the horse spear, it had been thrown long ago, and dialing the arrows was not as light as a short sword.

“Woo woo…”

After a horn, countless crossbowmen suddenly rushed out of the military formation, drawing their bows and shooting arrows desperately, preventing the Qiang cavalry from continuing to bully people.

"Ding bee...ding bee..."

The sharp whistle sounded again, and countless iron cavalry dispersed again.

"asshole--"

"Kill me up--"

Wen Chou suddenly strangled the war horse. He didn't care who was commanding thousands of crossbowmen. Seeing that the bullying bastards were afraid of infantry arrows, he turned around and wanted to chase after them with countless crossbowmen.

"General, no..."

"Get out--"

What kind of personality is Wen Chou? He kicked the general wearing armor and got on.

"Kill me up--"

"kill--"

The gongs are ringing there to retreat, and Wen Chou is furious here to avenge his brothers. Perhaps it is a fire. One or two thousand riders turn their horses and turn their horses to fight the bastards two hundred steps away.

"Kill me up--"

Wen Chou roared violently and was about to drive away countless crossbowmen and shoot the cowards to death. It was so frustrating. Those bastards didn't fight head-on, but just kept shooting cold arrows.

The five thousand cavalry in Yuan Shao's hands were not Han army cavalry. They were all cavalry contributed by various major families. The original elite cavalry of the Han Dynasty was in the hands of Dong Zhuo. They were the Meiyang camp brought in by Huangfu Song back then. Since the rebellion of Liangzhou in the first year of Zhongping, the elite soldiers of Luoyang have not returned to Luoyang. The cavalry that the princes gathered together had not undergone systematic cavalry training. The tactics and fighting styles used were very simple and direct. They rushed up, poked the enemy to death with a horse spear, and chopped people to death with swords. As for cavalry shooting... It would be nice to be able to wield swords fiercely on the horse's back, so where can they rush at high speed?

The cavalry that could rush in the Han Dynasty was either in the hands of the Qiang lieutenant, the Wuhuan lieutenant, the Duliao General, the Xiongnu General, or in the hands of the fifth camp of the Northern Army, the former Tunqi Camp, Yueqi Camp, Changshui Camp, Huqi Camp, and the miscellaneous soldiers formed by various princes... they did not have the qualifications to compete with the Qiang kettle on the horse, at least at this time they did not have the qualifications yet.

The rebellion of the princes was too hasty, and they could recruit 200,000 to 300,000 troops, but the soldiers were not much different from the Yellow Turban Army back then. If there were any differences, then the generals in commanded the army were more or less understanding of military tactics. Unlike the generals of the Yellow Turban Army, they were all mud-legged, but their soldiers and horses were the same without systematic training.

The cavalry quality is not good, and the war horses are not as good as the war horses. Even if there are hundreds of chariots, the cavalry force is not superior. In addition, the tactics are too stiff, so I only know how to rush up and kill. Isn’t it a big loss to encounter the old Qiang cavalry?

In just a quarter of an hour, more than 1,000 cavalry were lost, and hundreds of chariots were not able to escape. Isn’t the ten-stone yellow crossbow shooting death of the war horse dragging the chariot like a game?

Yuan Shao originally thought that the soldiers riding horses were not good at shooting, so he used a chariot to drag crossbowmen and shot those bastards to death, right? But he didn't think about how the soldiers on the chariot could effectively shoot and kill others on such a bumpy road?

The Qiang cavalry's bow shooting is much more accurate than the crossbowmen of the chariot, and the horses run bumpy, but the frequency of the horses running is stable. As long as the cavalry achieves the unity of people and horses, it is not much different from the arrow shooting on the flat ground. But can the carriage be the same?

The function of a chariot has never been to Mercedes-Benz archery, but to use powerful impact force to break the formation. It is the deterrent force during attack and can provide a defensive fortress during defense...

Now, the annoying mosquitoes were not driven away, but he lost more than a thousand cavalrymen and hundreds of chariots did not run back. Wen Chou was so angry that he wanted to use countless crossbowmen to shoot against those bastards, but the next moment...

"dismount--"

Dong Fang roared, and thousands of cavalrymen in the cavalry camp jumped off their war horses, changed their long bows and yellow crossbows again, and many others were carrying stone-cat poles.

In just twenty or thirty breaths, the same dense crossbowman formed. The stone-catted army formation was like the infantry army formation, and slowly advanced under the rhythmic whistle after rhythm...

"Arrow shot—"

With a command, countless people suddenly pulled their longbows, and the air buzzed and exploded, and thousands of heavy arrows were like dark clouds.

"Puff puff puff..."

...

"preparation--"

...

"Arrow shot—"

...

The heart-wrenching screams of despair exploded at the same time, and the collapse was almost instantly. In just two rounds of shooting, the longbow with a larger range, the yellow crossbow made Wen Chou turn around and escape.

...

The smoke of gunpowder disappeared, except for the whine of the injured war horses, the despair of the dying warriors, the sound of war drums that cheered up morale, the sound of horns urging war, the sharp and harsh whistles, the sound of retreating gongs... they all disappeared in an instant...

"Treat wounded soldiers."

Dong Ju said calmly. Thousands of cavalry soldiers stepped forward and began to inspect the alive wounded soldiers in front of countless enemy troops. They were shot into the chest and abdomen by arrows. The injuries were too great. They stabbed them into their chests without mercy and solved the pain for them. They only injured the wounded soldiers who broke the rapier, pulled out the arrows, and tied the wounds with cloth towels to the side.

"If you don't want to die, just stay honest."

If you throw the wounded soldiers out of the battlefield and survive, it depends on whether they are alive. Arrow damage is far more serious than sword damage, and the mortality rate is as high as more than 70%.

One hundred thousand people watched the Qiang cavalry gathered the wounded, no one spoke, and no one stepped forward to stop them...

"Liu Sheng!"

"How far can those big bows shoot?"

Yuan Shao suddenly turned around, his stern eyes made Liu Sheng unable to help but retreat, and Cao Cao also looked solemn. He did not expect that the big bow that looked similar to a stick had such great power, which was even longer than the range of the bows and arrows they used.

Liu Sheng shook his head and said, "The generals don't know how far the longbow can shoot. It's just because the people of Lintao are poor and cannot get the best materials. Huwa made some longbows like sticks, but there were not many in his army. It is said that this kind of longbow can easily hurt people's waist bones and make them prone to back pain when they are old."

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao frowned, his back pain was hurt? What does the back pain of soldiers have to do with them, such as the big men?

After seeing the range of the longbow, not only did the princes frown, but a group of generals were also worried. They were not conspicuous when the bastards rode horses and shot with longbows. But when they jumped off the war horses and pulled the bows, the range was even more terrifying than the range of the ten-stone yellow crossbow, and they couldn't help but ignore it.

The maximum range of the longbow is between 200 and 300 meters, while the ten-stone yellow crossbow can shoot 200 meters.

Bows and crossbows are different. People who can pull a stone bow can pull a nine-stone crossbow. The main reason is that crossbows can use both feet to step on the bow arms, use hands, waist and abdomen, and legs to pull the bow string.

There are also some differences in the ranges of the two. After the bow and arrow are shot, the shaft is snake-shaped forward, and the arrow and the bow arm have almost little friction. However, the crossbow arrows are different. The crossbow arrows have slots. Although they can be easier to shoot at standard, the friction between the shaft and slots when shot will affect the corresponding range. Bows of the same level are stronger than crossbows, but the human arms cannot withstand greater pulling bows and arrows.

Crossbow arrows range from one stone to forty stones. If more than ten stones, they can be called crossbow cannons. The maximum range can reach 400 steps. The yellow crossbow of more than ten stones is a weapon strictly prohibited from being controlled in the Han Dynasty. Only the sound camp of the fifth battalion of the Northern Army can be used. The rest are not allowed to use it. Perhaps Yuan Shao and Cao Cao would create such a weapon in the future, but now they cannot have crossbows with more than seven stones. Such powerful crossbows can only be stored in the Luoyang Arsenal.
