When they were not sure whether the Japanese pirates had entered the range, Wu Bing's calm voice rang in their ears. The archers did not hesitate, and quickly shot the first arrow, then squatted down to give space to the second team.
At this time, the Japanese pirates just entered the range of the second team. This is not because the soldiers of the second team are weak and have a short range. It is that the Japanese pirates in front fell and the Japanese pirates at the back made up and just entered the range of the second team. If the compensated Japanese pirate falls, and the Japanese pirates at the back come up again, they will enter the range of the first team of archers who shot the second arrow.
Six hundred crossbowmen shot a total of 1,200 arrows. The Japanese pirates are all infantry, and their actions are very slow compared to the cavalry.
On a flat ground, facing a slow-moving target, the hit rate of the crossbowmen is still good. Although the soldiers were a little nervous at the beginning, as the Japanese pirates continued to fall, the soldiers' tension gradually eased and the hit rate Also returned to normal levels.
Even if the hit rate was only 20%, more than 200 Japanese pirates fell. As for whether the Japanese pirates were injured or killed, there is actually no difference. The only difference is that the time of death is in order. Fortunately, the leader of the Japanese pirates hesitated, and his pace slowed down, and the Japanese pirates who followed him gradually stopped the impact.
"When have Daming's soldiers been so powerful?"
"Could it be that Qi Huo was born again?"
"What should we do now?"
"Cavalry, attack." Since the Japanese pirates hesitated, and now it was time to show their strength, Wu Bing decisively gave the cavalry the order to attack.
Zhu Youjian gave him the task of repelling the Japanese pirates, not annihilating them. Now the Japanese pirates hesitated and wavered, it was the opportunity to attack, as long as they frightened the Japanese pirates back.
The four hundred cavalry urged the horses, and the dust rolled up by the horses' hoofs quickly rushed to the sky, and the mudslides flowed towards the Japanese pirates like the clatter of horses' hoofs.
At this time, the north was also dusty. It turned out that Qian Limin led cavalry to come. They were standard cavalry. Some soldiers with excellent riding skills shot arrows at Japanese pirates from their horses. A dozen Japanese pirates fell.
In the face of the cavalry overwhelming momentum, the Japanese pirates are now Mianyang waiting to be slaughtered. They shouted, and finally turned around and retreated to the east.
Qian Limin didn't say hello to Wu Bing, and his cavalry followed the Japanese pirates' escape route and rushed to the northeast. His mission was not over yet, and he would continue to intercept the Japanese pirates.
Wu Bing was not in a hurry. While commanding the soldiers to make up for the wounded Japanese pirates, he commanded the crossbowmen to chase the Japanese pirates with their bows and crossbows to kill and wound the Japanese pirates at a long distance.
Just after repelling the Japanese pirates, the soldiers' courage and passion quickly improved, and they all rushed to hunt down the Japanese pirates, especially the general Liu Xingyu. It was not until Wu Bing scolded them that the soldiers returned to a calm state.
Although Shandong is a plain, the roads are sometimes uneven. After the Japanese pirates fled eastward for a while, they encountered Zhang Heng's interception and turned to the west again. Wu Bing commanded the archers and crossbowmen to shoot again like a storm. After dropping nearly a hundred corpses, the Japanese pirates had to retreat again.
Wu Bing was also secretly surprised. Zhu Youjian's command and dispatch was indeed effective. Seeing how the Japanese pirates scurrying around, they must have been effectively surrounded. The Japanese pirates, who could not be solved by hundreds of thousands of Shandong soldiers, could it be so easily besieged and annihilated by the 6,000 soldiers who fought in the military camp? If this is the case, Zhu Youjian may be Qi Shaobao reborn, but Zhu Youjian is so young, given time, wouldn't he be able to surpass Qi Shaobao
He feels that he is lucky. Zhu Youjian is in command on the battlefield. He only needs to execute his orders. More importantly, he is his boss. Under such a boss as a errand, his future begins to brighten. Of course He didn’t know that Zhu Youjian was the King of Letters. He only knew that he was the commander and co-knowledge of Fenwuying. It is estimated that he was behind, otherwise how could he be the commander and co-knowledge of Fenwuying at such a young age
The Japanese pirates had not dared to run eastward, they had to go north, anyway, this was a plain, and there was a way to go anywhere.
However, Zhu Youxian did not give the Japanese pirates a way to escape. The cavalry Qian Limin and the infantry Jiang Genbu were rained by arrows. The Japanese pirates left a corpse and began to flee south again. This was their only way to survive.
To the south is Li Xing’s troops. Last time he lost to Wu Bing in the exercise, he was very unconvinced. He always wanted to see the truth on the battlefield with Wu Bing. Now the Japanese pirates have been surrounded in such a small space. The Japanese pirates slipped through the net? Arrow rain became a nightmare for Japanese pirates again, and Wang Qiang's cavalry attacked from the side, and the Japanese pirates had to retreat again and return to the original point.
At this time, the Japanese pirate is like a mouse in a pocket. If you hit it from the east, you will run to the west, and if you hit it from the south, you will run to the north. Hope, there is no way to survive.
"His Royal Highness, are you catching mice?" Qin Yongnian laughed, now he is completely relaxed.
If he began to hand over the Fenwu Camp to Zhu Youjian’s command because he valued Zhu Youjian’s military abilities, it was not wrong that he found that Zhu Youjian had a special way of boosting morale, but he knew that he was good at the Fenwu Camp. There is no certainty about whether to wipe out the Japanese pirates, especially since he does not know whether Zhu Youjian's method of training soldiers can really improve the soldiers' combat effectiveness.
Zhu Youjian had a strong performance. He happened to hand over the army to Zhu Youjian's command. If the Fenwu Camp can annihilate the Japanese pirates, of course, it would be great. If the Japanese pirates cannot be annihilated, this is under Zhu Youjian's command. Let yourself be held accountable, right
Even if Fenwuying was defeated, Emperor Zhu Youxiao would not punish Zhu Youjian, and their brothers' feelings were still good. Since Zhu Youjian who commanded the war would not be punished, then he himself, the commander of soy sauce, would not be in any danger.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Qin Yongnian was watching Zhu Youjian, and he even considered that if Zhu Youjian’s command was unfavorable, he would take over the military command and fight to offend Zhu Youjian and let Fenwuying. The loss is minimized.
Now, he felt that there was no need to take back command of the army, and at the same time secretly praised the correctness of handing over military command to Zhu Youjian, and he couldn't help but praise himself a lot in his heart.
"The commander, the Japanese pirate rat, has repeatedly offended Daming. In the history of Daming, the length of time, the number of attacks, the cruel methods, the bad attitude, and the serious killings of Japanese pirates are all heinous. Today, We must teach them well, so that these rats will never forget today's lesson." Zhu Youjian also forgot, he is ready to wipe out this group of Japanese pirates, and I don't know what kind of lessons they can receive if they die.
"I don't know how His Royal Highness Xin Wang taught this mouse?" Qin Yongnian is like a cat, already taking aim at the hapless mouse, and now the mouse is just the prey for his own play.
"Commander, I plan to use bows and crossbows. Long-range attacks can reduce the casualties of the Fenwu camp. When the number of Japanese pirates is small enough, it depends on the situation to decide whether to use hand-to-hand combat to solve the problem." In fact, Zhu Youzhen does not advocate the use of hand-to-hand combat. According to the method, if you train the soldiers' hand-to-hand ability, the training time will take at least ten years. Daming can't wait for ten years, and building a slave won't let him wait for ten years.
Zhu Youjian values firearms more. It takes only a few days to master a firearm. It takes only two or three months to operate a firearm, which saves a lot of time compared to hand-to-hand combat. Moreover, firearms are the trend of the times and can be adequate. Give full play to Daming's technological, cultural, and political advantages, so that the cocooned silkworm chrysalis will emerge as a butterfly as soon as possible.
Zhu Youjian asked the soldiers to shoot at long distances with bows and crossbows instead of hand-to-hand combat. Another important reason was to train soldiers.
Normally, the training of the Fenwu Camp is purely physical and disciplinary training. Now is the real battlefield. The real soldiers are trained on the battlefield. Although the bloody killing is cruel, it is the best and indispensable method of training. .
Attacking from a long distance, the Japanese pirates will not disperse quickly. More soldiers can gather the courage to defeat the opponent on the Japanese pirates who have not been completely defeated. Especially the legendary Japanese pirates who are extremely powerful. A mouse that can't survive, a battlefield like this allows soldiers to quickly build the confidence to defeat all enemies.
The Japanese pirates no longer flee, and in the encirclement of the Fenwu Camp, it is futile to break through at will. They gathered together and discussed something. The six generals of Fenwuying slowly contracted the line of defense, squeezing the space for the Japanese pirates to squeeze step by step.
Suddenly, the Japanese pirates began a unified operation. Except for a small number of Japanese pirates, most of them flee to the north.
Jiang Gen immediately organized the soldiers to shoot with bows and crossbows. Now there is no more volley, and the soldiers shoot freely.
Scattered arrows are even more dangerous, and Japanese pirates may be shot by arrows anytime and anywhere. Surrounded by Fenwuying, once a Japanese pirate hits an arrow, there is no possibility of escape, but the Japanese pirates don't seem to understand the power of crossbows. They have no armor or shield, so they slammed their heads into the arrows of Fenwuying.
"Quick, chick."
The bow and crossbow continuously shot into the Japanese pirate’s chest, arms and thighs, and even penetrated into the head of the Japanese pirate’s eyes and nostrils. After the red blood burst from the body, it came in close contact with the air and quickly turned purple-red, Shandong Plain. There should be no severe drought this year.
The injured Japanese pirates never screamed again. As long as they could get up, they would still head north, with a firm goal. These Japanese pirates, even if they could not rush out of the encirclement of Fenwu Camp, they would use it as waste, and try their best to use their broken bodies to resist the crossbows and crossbows for their companions to gain time and distance for their escape.
"No, the Japanese pirates are going to break through." Qin Yongnian was an experienced military officer, and he immediately saw the Japanese pirates' attempts.
"These Japanese pirates really don't know how the dead words are written. Go, let's go to the north to see, Jiang Gen, don't drop me the chain." Zhu Youjian believes that if the Japanese pirates can't break through this time, they should do it There is no courage to break through, because every time a breakout, regardless of whether it is successful or not, the casualties of the Japanese pirates are extremely large, and the number of Japanese pirates is so small that they can't afford to be injured.
The Japanese pirates in front fell, and the Japanese pirates behind did not hesitate. They ran, staring into the eyes of the blood apes, yelling, and quickly filled the void of death.
